It was a day in Viridian City.

Nidorina, Nidorino, Nidoking and Nidoqueen were all at the conductor hall.

As we can see here, Nidorina is 1st viola, Nidorino is 1st violin, and Nidoking and Nidoqueen were great cellists.

There was a variety of instruments in the orchestra; flutes, bassoons, clarinets, oboes, violins, violas, cellos, basses, a piano, a drummist... and a music box section?

Well, that music box section was filled with Clefairy and Cleffa. The conductor was none other than a Shiny Alakazam, who decided to take his job as the conductor of the Viridian City orchestra.

Clefairy #1: We're finally going to be performing! After a whole month of not performing, we're going to be performing a song!

Nidorina: I'm really glad I'm gonna be performing again. I'm so happy...

Nidorino: I've been practicing ever since. I know my performances... they will ROCK the world!

Nidoqueen: Yeah... ever since I picked up the cello for the first time, I knew I was not going to put it down; it's so good!

Nidorino: Yeah, the cello must ROCK for you, correct?

Nidoking: It's like the orchestral version of the electric bass! I love rock music, as you see.

Nidorino: Yeah! I hope we perform with a metal band soon!

Nidoking: Yeah, but I do like classical music, too.

Nidorina: Wait, you want to make a metal band?

Nidoking: Yes, and you're not invited.

Nidorina sighs. Soon, everyone was practicing before the big concert started. A Chansey was playing her flute, there were some Clefable playing bassoons... there were some Johto and Hoenn Pokemon in the orchestra too, invited by Shiny Alakazam himself.

Eventually, the orchestra music starts. Everyone paid attention to the orchestra; it was that good. They played the first 3 songs correctly, and then...

During intermission...

Nidorina: I bet everyone LOVED my viola skills!

Nidoking: That is correct. That's probably the ONLY thing they like about you.

Nidorina: HEY!

Chansey: Now now, no fighting! Fighting is bad!

Nidoking and Nidorina calm down.

Nidoking: What did you think of my cello skills?

Nidorina: I thought it was great! Well, you've been a known cellist for almost 12 years now, so...

Nidoking: Yeah. How long have you been a violist?

Clefairy #2: Hey! Nidorina! Come here! I want to ask you a few questions!

Nidorina: Ever since 2011. How could you forget? I have to answer this Clefairy-

Suddenly, Nidorina unexpectedly trips, and then...

Clefable #7: Hey! Watch where you're going!

There was a Clefable near her. Nidorina realized what happened to her viola; when she tripped, the viola broke.

She never had this happen to her before; and even worse, it was her own viola, of... 3 years.

Alakazam teleports to Nidorina.

Nidorina: My precious viola... was broken!

Alakazam: Wait, what happened!?

Nidorina: I randomly tripped, and now my viola broke. A Clefable was nearby; do you think he had anything to do with it?

Alakazam: No. He seems like a nice Clefable-

Nidorina: He said "Hey! Watch where you're going!"

Alakazam: Nevermind, then. But I don't think he did anything to do with it; he must've asked that to see if you were OK.

Nidorina: I'm... obviously, I'm obviously not okay... my viola was broken... into pieces.

Nidorina starts crying quietly, Nidoqueen quickly comforting her.

Clefairy #2: Nevermind... this is more important than my questions...

For the next concert piece, Nidorina had to sit out. Sucks for her, because she had to do a very important solo on that song...

Nidorina: Nidorino, I leave it up to you... do my solo... I'm pretty sure you can do it as good as me...

Nidorino: What!? I don't even KNOW your solo, and you're asking me to do it?

Nidorina: Just... try.

Nidorina transposed the music for him.

Nidorina: Please bear with me...

Eventually, the next song started. The crowd wondered what happened to Nidorina, #1 violist.

However, for the solo, Nidorino played. He never played before, so it didn't sound that great...

The whole crowd was confused. Some were angry, some were booing, and others were just questioned.

Crowd member #1: What!? I thought Nidorino was GOOD at this!

Crowd member #2: What happened to Nidorina!? She was a master violist!

Crowd member #3: His solo sucked! I'm actually shocked!

Nidorino felt so ashamed... he felt like he had to blame someone...

Nidorino: It's YOUR fault Nidorina! Your viola broke, so I had to play your solo. You forced me to! I did, and everyone booed at me! Transpose it right!

Nidorina was crying... she felt even more ashamed than Nidorino when everyone booed at him...


Nidorina needed some money, fast. Nidorino wasn't going to lend her any money, after what happened yesterday; he wasn't over it.

Of course, Nidoking wouldn't either, since he kinda hated Nidorina. The only one left was Nidoqueen...

Nidorina: Nidoqueen, please... my viola broke... can you please buy one? It's only $100, online...

Nidoqueen: Sorry, but I don't have much money...

Nidorina: How much do you have...?

Nidoqueen: Under $100... sorry.

Nidorina decides to take on a new hobby; sewing plush toys...

To be continued.
