May's Story
May walked down the street and she suddenly crashed into a cute white haired boy around a year older than her, "Sorry!" she muttered embarrassed and intrigued that he wasn't looking at where he was going. "S'okay" he told her grinning, "My name is Brendan. What about you?" May blushed and told him, "Mine's May." Brendan nodded and then he said, "Well got to go... What's your school's name?" May was caught off guard, "Umm... It's Petalburg High." Brendan flashed a cute grin at her, "Me too! See ya at school." Then he was gone. She blinked, That was weird. She thought. As May was walking toward the Petalburg Gym.
Brendan was trailing after her and was surprised when May went inside the Petalburg Gym, and a black haired midget came out and pestered May. 'So she's Norman's daughter... Interesting.' He thought. Brenden opened his Mac, stole some of the connection in the Gym thinking, 'The gym doesn't even have a password? That sucks' And then nudged Drew on MSN. What? came Drew's annoyed reply. Well... I met this girl on the street... Brendan began, WAT?! YOU MET AND FELL IN LOVE WITH A BEGGAR?! Drew wrote down, NO!!!!! Brendan quickly wrote, She was Norman's daughter. She is one hot chick. Brunette, blue eyes, hot body, wears red clothes and she has a trusting attitude. I think you'll like her. Drew's reply came 5 seconds later, Wat's her name? Brendan shook his head as he read it, May Maples. She is in our school. Petal High. Then suddenly, "Really, Brendan?!" Drew came out of the alley. Brendan turned around and sighed at Drew, "I'm going to your house, then I'll talk." Drew looked annoyed but nodded. Next time to get an excuse to get inside Drew's house, find new hot girls! Brendan grinned at Drew's back as he followed Drew to the 'rich' side of Petalburg City.
Drew grumbled to himself as he opened his houses' door, "Well, don't go into my sister's room. She'll kill you." Brendan nodded and thought about Cissy, Drew's sister. She seemed to have a different boyfriend every week, "Like sister, like brother..." Brendan smirked as he finished. Drew turned around quietly and in a dangerous voice said, "If you say one more thing about me or my sister's life, I will make sure your life will be a living hell for you." Brendan just yawned and said, "Are you listening or not?" Drew pointed to his chairs and told him, "Sit, then tell." Brendan smiled openly at Drew, "Maybe a glass of water and some bread would be nice before I start." Drew grinded his teeth and stomped to his kitchen. Brendan leaned back on his chair and thought, 'How easy to make Drew do stuff for you.' Drew was back with a tray, "Now?!" Brendan nodded and started, "So I was looking at my favourite pokemon shop when I crashed into the girl -May Maples- and she stepped back looking stunned and kept on saying sorry. Then I told her my name and she told me hers and then I left. I followed her to the Petalburg Gym and then Caroline -her mom- opened the door and a black haired midget went outside and annoyed her." Drew opened his mouth to interrupted Brendan carried on, "Norman came out last and carried the midget in and then after they were inside he closed the door." Drew looked at Brendan and asked him, "Did you manage to get a picture of her?" Brendan nodded slowly and show him May's face on his phone. Drew whistled and pronounced slowly, "She. Is. Hot." Brendan rolled his eyes and said, "Now do you want to talk?"
May sighed on her bed with her Torchic and Eevee at her right side, warming her up, 'Hmm... Brendan... First boy I met in Petal High... If all the boys were like that, I don't think I'll like that school. I hope I meet some nice boys.' She thought, "May!" May sat upright quickly, annoying her Torchic and Eevee, "May! If you don't come down now, you aren't allowed to go out for this week and next week!" May ran down the stairs to only crash into Max, "Sorry Max!" Then she ran to Caroline with Max complaining, "Mom! She bashed into me!" Caroline sighed and told him, "Be quiet for now, I'll punish her later." May then said, "What now?"
Gary walked down the alley and stopped on front of the Petalburg Gym, 'This is the fifth gym in Hoenn... Norman, Normal type trainer, Slakoth, Vigeroth and Slaking... Weak against Fighting Pokemon... Better use Umbreon, Nidorino and Electabuzz...' Just then a stunning brunette stormed outside of the gym muttering about groceries and her mom, "Stupid mom. Doesn't even go to buy her own food, sends a teen to buy GROCERIES?!" Then she saw Gary and blushed, she disappeared into a maze of roads a few seconds later, 'Poor girl, she needs to do chores for her mom. She is hot though...' He knocked on the Petalburg Gym's door and then a tall woman with orange hair, shooting out on top of her shoulders like lightning said, "Are you a challenger?" Gary nodded and asked, "Is Norman home?" She nodded and gestured him in, "Yes he is, but you need to wait, he's eating. You can join him though." Gary nodded as well and told her, "I would be privileged. By the way, I'm Gary Oak, I forgot to ask your name." Then woman smacked her head and exclaimed, "I totally forgot as well! I'm Caroline Maples. By chance are you Professor Samuel Oak's grandson?" Gary smirked slightly and said, "Yes I am. May I eat a bit? I haven't had lunch yet." Caroline nodded and showed him the way to the kitchen where a stomach-rumbling smell came out. A handsome black haired man was eating sandwiches and some juice, "Are you a challenger? Yes... You look familiar, do I know one of your relatives?" Norman asked. Gary nodded and said, "My grandfather is Professor Oak." A voice came out a doorway by Gary's right, "Really?! I've always wanted to meet him!" A short black haired boy with green eyes and glasses to big for him was speaking, "I'm Max Maples, Norman's son and May's sister." Gary recalled the brunette, "Is she a brunette with blue eyes, red clothes and a red bandanna?" Max nodded and said, "She's May. She should be home by now." Just then the bell rang, "I'm home!"
Brendan leaned back on his chair, "Satisfied now?" Drew nodded slowly, "I believe so..." Brendan sighed, "I'll take her to meet you then." Drew looked at him and said, "Really?" Brendan sighed again, "What choice do I have?" Drew smirked Brendan's signature smirk, "None" They looked at each other. "Cissy!" The two friends shouted, "What, loners?" Came Cissy's annoyed reply, "Do I need to baby-feed you two?" Then Brendan said, "No. We are going to walk around town. You need to stay in here..." They heard Cissy celebrate, then the door opened, "Really?! I would love it if you left! Now GET OUT!!!!!!!!" The beautiful dark brunette teen pointed to the main door. Drew sighed and then dragged Brendan outside, "She means it."
May froze, Why is HE here?!, she thought, not knowing that she dropped her one of her pokeballs. The pokeball went rolling towards Gary's feet and he picked it up, "What pokemon?" May was rustling through her head trying to remember how to speak, "M-my T-torchic..." Gary nodded, "Norman, can we battle now?" Norman said, "Wait for a bit more, would you? My pokemon is in the greenhouse. I need to find them again." Gary looked like he took too much sugar, "OK..." Norman looked at May, "You are the judge, May. The boy went off sick... You're the judge until he comes back." May nodded, "What terrain?" Gary was confused by May's words, "Terrain?" May nodded, "There are 4 main types of battle fields in this gym. Fire, Ice, Water and Grass. For fire, there is very hot sand, magma and a extremely hot pool of water. For ice, there is a very cold layer of ice, 20cm over water, freezing water and a snowy field. For water, there is a large lake surrounded by mud, strong lily-pads for pokemon to stand on and 2 meters under water there is a big rock. You can lift it if you do just the right thing. And finally for grass, there is a big field with long grass tall as your shoulders, marshy ground at one end, flat rocks on the right end of the field and there is a underground stream, just for this field." She finished with a twinkle of her eyes. Gary nodded and looked around for Norman, he was just coming back from a hidden corridor, "I guess she finished her speech?"
Gary nodded thinking, 'OMG she is so cute when she talks.' Then he asked, "Are we starting yet?" Norman stretched a bit and said, "So have you decided your terrain?" Gary was thinking, 'Hmm....' "How about the Grass?" Norman grinned slightly and nodded. May was gone from sight and then he heard a soft whirling and clanking in a field. Gary lifted an eyebrow and Norman nodded, "She's changing it." Gary then went to where the sound came with Norman and Max followed him, then he stopped so suddenly Max hit Gary's back with a loud thud, "That's the gym?" His voice echoed, "gym, ym, m, m..." Max nodded and straightened his glasses, looking annoyed. May was sitting on a tall platform singing a chorus that sounded oddly familiar with A-Teen's 'Upside Down', "Upside down, bouncing off the ceiling, inside out, stranger to this feeling, got no clue, what I should do, I'll go crazy if I can't be next to you...." Gary looked at May to find she was looking at him as well and she blushed looking away. Gary smirked and went to the right side of the battle field, "All challengers must use 3 pokemon for the battle, the leader is not allowed to substitute their pokemon but the challenger is. There is no time limit for this battle. Let the battle begin!" May said.
Brendan dragged Drew all the way back to the gym, "I'll introduce you two together. Be nice!" He warned Drew, Drew smirked in a way that annoyed Brendan, "Of course, I'll be. Don't I always?
