Sweet Sixteen

There are many special ages in an average life time: when you turn one you have officially been on earth for a year, when you turn ten you're finally in the double digits, when you turn thirteen you're a teenager, but what comes next? Your sweet sixteen of course; the time in your life when you are no longer a kid but not yet an adult, you're halfway there. This special day is a big thing for teenagers all over the regions, mostly for girls and today one girl gets to experience the wonderful feeling of being and having a sweet sixteen. Her sixteenth birthday meant that she only had to wait one more day until she started her sixth journey.

It was a beautiful cool evening in the tranquil city of Petalburg, Hoenn. The raven black velvet sky was lit by the spiritual like glow of the crescent moon and scattered around it were faint flickering stars that added to the marvelous beauty of the night. Even though it was after hours it was a time for celebration and partying for a group of family and friends would. Such a celebration revolved around a certain chestnut haired girl's birthday. Today on May sixteenth, two thousand and sixteen, May Victoria Male turns sixteen.

This young coordinator decided that her birthday be held at the Peatlburg Gala (Those places where big parties are held) and she had practically every person she ever met on the guest list. Seated at some tables were the parents and other adults such as Professor Oak and Birch, Delia Ketchum, and May's uncle Chet and Aunt Melissa. Seated at other tables were the boys who refused to dance; there was Ash, Brock, Paul, Tracey, Johnny (Made up), Brendan, Wallace, and of course May's little brother Max Maple. Unlike the boys all over the dance floor were the girls. There were Misty, Dawn, Solidad, Roslyn, Zoey, Brianna, Casey, and her twin cousins June and July and last but not least the birthday girl herself.

They danced to the beat of a song that made Ash twitch as the words passed in his ears and Max looked like he was about to puke. Paul had pieces of a napkin stuck in his ears and Brock was too focused on Solidad to worry about the song.

Get you where you wanna go if you know what I mean


Got a ride that's smoother than a limousine


Can you handle the curves? Can you run all the lights?


Baby you got the keys-

Shut up and drive


(drive, drive, drive)

"What is wrong with girls and their taste in music?" Ash asked as he fiddled with a fork that rested on the table. Max shrugged.

"May has been listening to this song on her i-pod for the past two weeks. To me it sounds a little similar to Umbrella." Max said in his as matter of fact tone. Ash gave him a look as to why he knew what the song Umbrella was and on queue the next song began making Ash hit his head on the table.

When the sun shines, we'll shine together

Told you I'll be here forever

Said I'll always be your friend

Took an oath

I'mma stick it out til the end

Now that it's raining more then ever

Know that we'll still have each other

You can stand under my umbrella

You can stand under my umbrella

"When will it end?" Ash exclaimed throwing his hands up into the air for emphasis. Max laughed at his reactions to the music and decided just to ignore the shaky repetitive voice that belonged to Rihanna.

May laughed as she held onto the hands of her cousin June who was currently dancing with her. They twirled each other playfully and the whole entire group of girls had enjoyment radiating off of them. The formal party was such a gathering to behold and be apart of. Everyone was in formal or casual-formal attire but May looked the most "fixed up" then anyone else.

She was wearing a red silk kimono that trailed down onto the floor sweeping along it at she walked. The designs that went up the side of the kimono were roses and beautiflys. It was V necked and laid off her shoulders. It fit to her curvy figure exquisitely and complimented her skin tone. The sleeves went to her mid arm and around her neck was a red velvet choker that had a beautifly charm dangling from it. Her brunette hair was curled and was held into a bun by red sparkly chopsticks, some curled hair also framed her face. She looked absolutely beautiful.

"May, it's time for your cake and presents." Caroline Maple, also known as May's mother told her. May smiled happily then followed her mother to the table where her cake sat. The others followed and proceeded in singing happy birthday to the young beauty. When the time came May bent over the cake contemplating over what her sixteenth birthday wish should be. She looked up at her party guests who were all smiling at her but a missing guest inspired her wish. She closed her eyes and blew away the fire that was lit on the sixteen red candles. She was then handed a knife and she began to distribute cake.

"Hey May what did you wish for?" Dawn asked quirking a brow in interest.

"If I tell it won't come true." May said bluntly as she took in a bite of red velvet cake.

"Keeping it a secret huh?" Misty said smirking. "Is it about a boy or something?" May choked slightly on her cake and blushed as red as her crimson dress.

"Uh….of course not!" May exclaimed defensively. Dawn and Misty exchanged unsure glances then smiled at their friend.

"Its okay May, you don't have to worry. I was only playing." Misty laughed. May smiled once again and laughed along with her friend, but her laughter died down when she thought back to her wish. 'Why didn't he show up?' she thought as she frowned slightly. Another one of her friends, Roslyn to be exact, noticed the little pout and put a hand on her friends shoulder.

"You okay May?" She asked with her voice dripping with concern that she tried to hide. May nodded with a bittersweet smile that convinced Roslyn enough to leave her. May looked out a window and into the sky at the crescent moon that was now high in the sky. Suddenly something flew past the moon catching May's attention.

"Masqurine…"

May thought about the sound and then ran out of the Gala all of a sudden. She looked back and fourth looking for the creature that had made the call that seemed to be directed to her.

"Masqurine…"

"Flygon!"

May brought her gaze upwards to see a Masqurine and a Flygon hovering above her. The lowered themselves to the ground and May smiled.

"Hey guys." May said happily recognizing the pokemon. "Is he here?" Flygon shook its head making May's hopes fall into an endless pit. Flygon saw her disappointment and put out its hands; in its hands were a necklace box, a card, and a scarlet rose. May smiled and took the stuff gratefully. She stuck the rose behind her ear and in her hair and then she opened the card first. On the cover were a Masqurine and Beautifly flying around together.

Dear May,

It's been a while hasn't it, I bet you've been counting the days but if your feeble mind forgot, it's been at least three years. Sorry I couldn't make it to your sweet sixteen but I think the present can make up for the absence. If I know you then I'm guessing you're heading to the Champix region and if so, don't believe you are going to win like last time because I am going to be there. Happy birthday and I'll see you soon.

Love always,

Drew

May smiled happily and blushed at the way he closed the letter. She was glad that she was going to have the opportunity to see him again. The last time she saw him was in the Airi region. They had gotten close in the often times they would meet up and that was the region May got her first ribbon cup in. It came down to the two of them and May came out on top thanks to her Gardevior that went up against Drew's Gallade. It was a very interesting battle…..

Flashback….

"Gallade use psycho cut then use shadow ball." Drew commanded. May's Gardevior was already rather tired and beat up from the previous attacks that were too quick to dodge and this combination was coming on fast as well. May was now under the pressure of the time and was beginning to get flustered. Drew had easily taken out her newly captured shiny Flygon with Roselia but she was knocked out in the process so it came down to one on one.

"Gardevior! Use safe guard." Gardevior made a shield appear around it deflecting the psycho cut but May still had to worry about that shadow ball that was coming their way. She had to think of something quick or she was out.

"C'mon Gallade you can still get them with shadow ball." Drew said encouraging his pokemon who was gearing up for the strongest shadow ball it could ever release. May had to think.

"That's it! Gardevoir use imprison, quick!" May ordered hoping she wasn't too late.

Gardevior's eyes began to glow purple and the Shadow ball that Gallade was creating disappeared surprising the male evolution of Kurlia and it's emerald haired trainer.

"Wow, what a great and engenius attack to use! Imprison is the attack that stops any other attack that the pokemon knows! Talk about working under pressure!" the MC Marissa said in astonishment.

"Now Gardevior finish this up with calm mind and ice punch!" Gardevior's eyes began to glow pink this time and it began to gain energy as it concentrated. It pulled a balled fist back and then the fist was covered by ice. Gaining enough energy Gardevior charged at Gallade and hit it full force encasing it in ice that it couldn't escape from.

"The winner of the Airi ribbon cup is May Maple of Petalburg city!" May jumped happily and gave her pokemon a hug. She looked over at Drew who returned Gallade after giving it praise for a good battle. He then noticed her looking at him and he smiled. He winked at her before he went off the battle stage.

End of Flashback…..

May hadn't seen the emerald haired jade eyed boy ever since and she couldn't hide the fact that she missed him. She had grown rather fond of him over the events and memories they had together. She smiled at the fact that they would be reunited soon enough.

"Fly?" Flygon brought her back from her recollection of her times with her rival and the dragon like creature directed toward the necklace box. May mentally slapped herself for forgetting that she hadn't opened it.

She lifted the lid of the red velvet box and gasped. Resting in the box was a necklace (Well duh!) that had a charm handing from a pure silver chain. The charm was an emerald encrusted 'D' that was overlapping with a ruby encrusted 'M' and behind the 'D' and 'M' was a rose that had an emerald stem and sapphire petals. A diamond played the role as a water drop falling from the rose. By the looks of it this necklace must have cost roughly around thirty hundred dollars.

"Drew can be such a gentleman when he feels like it…." May muttered as she ran her fingers over the necklace.

So cute! Don't cha think?

May: Yes!

Drew: Not really!

Me: Poor boy is in denial.

Drew: I am not!

Me: There he goes again, now he's in denial about being in denial.

May: Heh-wha?

Me: Never mind, Please review and I will give you a free dog named Skippy peanut butter chicken legs!
