Hey guys! This is my first ever fanfic. Yes, first ever. Now, I'm okay at writing my own fictional stories with their own personalities but when it comes to characters already with their own personalities, it's hard for me to write around them.

So, I'll give you some background knowledge before we start. Hilda and Hilbert are both 14. Don't ask why. I don't even know myself. It was just more fitting for my plot. This story goes around the Pokemon Black and White games. Some things in the game might not be in my story, while some things in my story aren't in the game. This story was inspired by my favorite author on this website, Br33zy. I don't think she goes on anymore but I love her writing. She wrote a Brendan and May version (Hoennshipping) around the games Ruby/Sapphire/Emerald.

Well, that's all I can think of right now. :) I don't expect this story to be all that successful or heck, even good... ish?.. Uhm... Well, I'll do my best! :D

Chapter One: The Thirsty Girl

It was hot. Hot, hot, hot, hot.

Hilbert took another step, his new partner Tepig, hung limply on his shoulder. They both were sweating gallons of sweat. The hot Sun was blaring down onto everyone on Route 2 and probably even Striation City. What a way to start out his journey to the Unova League.

"Argh!" Hilbert shouted. He took off his hat and began fanning himself with it. "What is up with this heat? No one said anything about it being 105 degrees (Fahrenheit)!" His Tepig grunted in agreement. Hilbert reached into his pack and pulled out a bottle of water, chugging down half of it before he sighed and let Tepig have some.

He continued walking down the dirt path, doing his best to avoid any trainers looking for a battle. But really, who would be outside in this weather, other than his stupid self, of course. He really should of just waited another day before taking off. Was it because Cheren had already reached Striation City? He had been competitive with Cheren ever since they were little kids.

Hilbert staggered a bit in the heat, his back hunched low. With his arms dangling at the side of his body, he took a half step, half staggering, step before collapsing on the ground. As soon as his face hit the dirt, he shot back up, holding his cheek.

"Holy," he swore. "Even the freaking dirt is hot." Tepig grunted again, too hot to reply.

All of a sudden, a girl younger than him walked up to the swearing boy. "Hey you!" she shouted, pointing at him.

"Hey, it's not polite to point," Hilbert told her, crossing his arms.

"Whatever!" The girl stomped her foot down, clearly pissed. "I challenge you to a battle!"

Hilbert look at her, raising an eyebrow. "In this weather? No thanks." He picked up Tepig and walked around the fuming girl, doing his best to avoid her death glare.

"Hey! You can't say no to a challenge!" She ran in front of him, swinging her arms in a circular motion.

"I just did," Hilbert replied slyly. He usually wasn't like this. Was it the heat causing him to act like this? Or was it that the girl was very annoying. He barely had enough energy to talk, let alone fight. Hilbert heard the girl groan, and then her loud footsteps walking away.

This weather was making him grumpy.


"Is that.." Hilbert said to himself half an hour later. He stood on his toes, looking at something. It is! It was Striation City! That meant the Pokemon Center. The Pokemon Center meant air conditioning! Hilbert got on his knees and smirked. "Let's go, Tepig!" Tepig cried out it's name happily. Clearly, it wanted air conditioning as well.

Hilbert took off running faster than he had ever before. If the heat wasn't going to kill him, his lack of water would. All of a sudden, he tripped over something. He fell down face first with a oomph, dirt getting into his mouth. Tepig had landed face first into the dirt as well. Hilbert looked up to see what he had tripped over.

Lying a yard away was a girl. She was face first down in the dirt as well. Next to her was a Minccino in the same position as her.

Hilbert got up, dusting the dirt off of his clothes.

What the heck is a girl doing here, lying on the ground? I was so close to the city too! He thought, clearly angry. Tepig got off the ground, shaking the dirt off his body.

Hilbert walked up to the girl, looking down on her. "Hey. What are you doing lying on the ground?"

The girl said nothing.

"I said, what are yo-" he started. Then he heard something.

"Hmmhmm!" the voice cried.

"What?" Hilbert bent down and began to shake the girl gently. "Hmmhmm?"

"Hmmhmm!" The girl said louder this time.

"I don't know what you're saying," Hilbert told her.

The girl suddenly got up, and yelled, "Water! I need water!"

Hilbert jumped back, falling back onto the ground, shocked. The girl had a chocolate brown colored hair. Her face had dirt on it and her clothes were covered with dirt as well. Her Minccino cried out it's name, hopping onto her owner's shoulder. Tepig jumped into Hilbert's arms.

"Water?" Hilbert asked.

The girl looked at him. "Yeah, water. You know, it's clear? Our world is covered in it?"

"Yeah, I know what water is. Why water?" He got up, looking at the girl with a straight face. She was a good three inches shorter than he was.

"It's freaking 105 degrees outside. My Minccino and I are thirsty. So good sir, I am asking you to lend us some water." The girl looked at Hilbert with pleading puppy eyes. The Minccino mimicked her trainer.

Hilbert scratched the back of his neck. "Uh, if it's just water you want..."

The girl screeched happily, taking his hands into her. "Thank you, thank you, thank you!" She and her Minccino danced around without a care in the world. Then, they stopped suddenly. "So, where's the water?"

Hilbert dug into his pack and pulled out his water bottle which was empty. He raised it to his face, double checking to see if it was empty. "Um..." The girl ran up to him.

"What? No water? Noooo," she cried. She fell onto the ground dramatically, her Minccino copying her. "No. Water."

"Hey, Striation City is near. We can get some at the Pokemon Center," Hilbert look at her, raising an eyebrow. This girl was dramatic. "It's like, less than five minutes away. If we run, that is." He added the last part softly.

"Five minutes?" The girl looked at him, hope gleaming in her eyes. "Then, what are we waiting for? Let's go!" She got up off the ground, her Minccino back on her shoulder. "To Striation City!" She took off, leaving Hilbert.

Hilbert watched her go. She's a weird person. Who the heck is she? He looked at the back of her head for another second before taking off after her.


"Stop. Running. So. Fast." Hilbert said in between deep breathes. He and the mystery girl had ran the whole way to Striation. The Pokemon Center was now in view and the girl had sped up her pace.

"Hurry up!" She yelled over to him. "I can see the Pokemon Center!" She cupped her hands around her mouth. People walked by looked at her and Hilbert lowered his hat in embarrassment. He ran until he was side by side with the girl.

As the two walked through the doors of the Pokemon Center, a cool wave of air brushed against they're sweaty faces.

"Ahh, that feels so good!" The girl cried happily. Minccino said it's name happily. Hilbert nodded, Tepig in his arms.

That's when the two trainers saw the water bubbler. They looked at each other and back at the bubbler.

Dash.

The two took off to the bubbler. They both got there at the same time.

"Girls first!" the girl said, shoving Hilbert.

"So? That's the stupid rule. No one follows rules anymore." Hilbert shoved back.

"Well, nice to meet you Mr. Idon'tfollowrules!" the girl shoved back harder.

"The name's Hilbert, Ms. Ladysfirst!" Hilbert pushed the girl, even though it wasn't a nice thing to do.

"Well, my name is Hilda!" Hilda shot back.

"Excuse me but do you think I can take a drink at the bubbler?" A voice said behind them.

Hilda and Hilbert stopped shoving each other and turned around. There stood a little girl in pigtails. She had on a little red dress with cherries all over the dress. Her mouth was moving up and down, like she was chewing gum.

"Yeah, sure!" Hilda jumped aside, smiling.

"Y-yeah," Hilbert said a few seconds later, stepping aside.

The two watched as the little girl stood on her tippy toes and pressed the button. Water danced around in the bubbler as the little girl drank the cool liquid. The girl then wiped her mouth with her sleeve and ran off.

Hilbert and Hilda watched as the girl left. Then, they looked back at each other; and back at the bubbler. In the bubbler was a piece of gum. It was pink and was covered in tiny teeth marks.

"Why don't you go first?" Hilbert said, smiling.

Hilda smiled. "No, I insist, you go ahead!"


That. Was. Terrible.

:'(

Man... I need to work on my writing. It's hard for me to describe stuff, but ehh... I'll keep on trying!

Please leave a review and some suggestions! :3
