Hi everyone. Apologies for not updating any of my other works. University is kicking my arse and thanks to my dissertation my free time has been drastically cut. I figure it would be if I made a new series in which that would lend itself to short bursts of writing and wont have to much of an overhanging narrative. Anyway hope you enjoy.
It is a warm and quiet Autumn evening in the Kalos Region. The sky bears an orange glow as afternoon fades seamlessly into evening. Rustling sounds can be heard as the wind brushes against the trees of Route 19. Serena and Bonnie are shuffling around attempting to set up the tent early just in case the weather decides to take a turn for the worst. Clemont is happily humming a cheerful tune as he wields a kitchen knife and moves the sliced potato, carrots and steak from the chopping board and into the boiling pot of stew. Whilst Ash is keeping himself occupied lying down in his tent his feet poking out of the entrance happily resting. Everyone's Pokémon are happily chowing down the food from their respective bowls engaging in seemingly innocent bits of chit chat as laughter is exchanged between one another.
Ash putting his PokeGear back into his pocket steps up and moves out of his tent and walks toward Clemont
"They all look so happy don't they" Ash smiles as he points towards Pikachu, Braxien, Luxray and the rest of everyone's Pokémon
"Yeah, Im glad to see that our Pokemon get along just as well as we do". Clemont looks up with his glasses steamed up from the boiling pot
'Hmm" Ash nods in agreement stifling a laugh at Clemonts glasses'
"Tell you what though, I always do wonder what they talk about. Hey, I know Clemont. Why don't you build another translating device for us". Ash announces with his usual loud and proud brand of optimism
"I would do Ash. But I didn't get round to buying any transistors or any other bits of electronics when we passed through Couriway Town, and besides I don't think I need to remind you of my failure via explosion rate when it comes to my inventions" Clemont announced with the usual tone of despair when talk of his inventions arises"
"Dont worry about it Clemont, We always learn from our mistakes, that is what makes us human after all. Besides you show so much potential that I know someday you are going to create something truly revolutionary" Ash's optimism shines through in his speech
"Thanks, Ash" Clemont smiled as he went back to the pot, churning the ingredients together with a wooden spoon
"Oh god, quit encouraging him Ash, I've lost count of the amount of time his explosion have ruined by lustrous fur" Braxien moans overhearing there conversation
"Let me guess, is he trying to inspire faith in someone again" Pikachu replied
"Is anything else he does apart that, Pokemon battling or being a dense idiot whenever my Serena tries to court him" Braxien replied
"He eats a lot as well don't forget" Luxray chimed with his eyes close as he lies down on the floor
"He can be quite the fool, I admit, but he is a noble one" Hawlucha swooped down from a nearby tree
"Ah glad you can join us captain serious" Greninja spoke out loud as he walked towards the group
"Hmm Captain Serious, Coming from the guy who wears his tongue round his neck like a scarf or cape. I can't tell if you are ninja or a loaner who writes poetry when he thinks hes alone" Hawlucha announced with his arms cradling a purple berry
"Yeah yeah, Keep quiet and eat your Oran berry" Greninja folds his arms obviously showing his displeasure towards that verbal jab of Hawluchas
"Did Someone say Oran berry?!," Chespin said as he walked toward the four of them hands patting his belly
"Trust him to perk up at the sound of food," Luxray said aloud toward Hawlucha, Braxien and Pikachu as they each smirk
"Vine Whip!", Chespin said aloud as he unveild two sets of vines from his body and used them to grab the plump Oran Berry from Hawlucha grasp before running away hurriedly pulling off bits of the berry with his hands and stuffing them into his mouth
"Get back here you grassy rodent!" Hawlucha then jumped up toward a tree branch, he took a second to pose as he stretched out his wings before jumping off and gliding directly towards Chespins direction"
"Flying Press!" Hawlucha said aloud
"Show Off" Braxien mumbled
"Hey guys, We are not our own trainers, we don't need to yell our attacks out loud" Pikachu yelled toward them
"Also it does kind of give away your strategy if you do that" Annoyed he then turned his attention toward Bunnelby
"Hey, Bunnelby!"
Bunnelby was happily chatting away with Eevee but alerted he focus towards Pikachu
"Huh, yes Pikachu?"
Can you do me favour use dig and catch them both before they knock down a cyclist or something. Just be sure to strike just as Hawlucha is about to connect with Chespin and knock some sense into them"
"Ughh... is Chespin running with food again?" Bunnelby asked despite already having a good idea what the question is to which Pikachu just merely nodded
"Ugghh. Fine...I'm on it!. As if that overstuffed novelty green pin cushion needs more food"
"Sorry Eevee, I'll be a minute" Bunnelby turned away and jumped into the air flipping his body before diving into the earth head first as he rapidly spins. His ears act as a drill as he tunneled away dust and dirt was scattering everywhere which led to Eevee running away toward Pikachu and the others.
"You know I do wonder why I let myself be captured sometimes, I was quite happy just dancing on that rock before Serena and you guys came along" Eevee moaned toward the rest of the gang" Eevee moaned quietly to the others
"Aww cheer up Eevee", Braxien replied with a sincere smile
"Besides, it is always fun to watch that greedy schlub over there get whats coming to him"
"Come back here you coward!" Hawlucha yelled with his wings outstretched his face visibly straining as he rapidly descends and is on course to strike into the back of Chespin but just as he is about to make contact he notices the ground bellow him churning up as stray pieces of dirt scatter across his face
"Huh what the!?"All of a sudden a rushing surge of power erupts from the ground beneath. As Bunnelby is launched from the earth colliding right in to the Hawk and plump grass type Pokemon. The impact sends them back towards the camp where Pikachu and the others are waiting
"Thats enough" Bunnelby roars as he runs back toward the others
"Every week we repeat this!"
"Umm Ash, Clemont, you might want to have a look at this" Serena told the guys, after at first hearing the commotion before turning around to witness a livid Bunnelby
The two guys turn around and see Bunnelby, Chespin and Hawlucha going at one another and shouting and repeating their name with an ever growing intensity at one another. Pikachu and Greninja doing there best to separate them and keep them away from one another, Luxray seemingly bothered remains with his eyes close still comfortable lying on the floor. Ash surveys the scene looking at the Pokémon and then the surrounding area in the distance he spots something peculiar and walks toward it.
"Huh, is that a crushed Oran berry?" he put his finger into the crushed berry and sniffs a familiar scent from the residue on his finger"
"Hey Clemont" Nothing to worry about, I think it is about an Oran berry again. Ash said he ran back towards the group
"Ahh okay, thats about the ninth or ten time now isn't it" Clemont ponders briefly before the smell of stewing food hits his senses
"Well our food is ready now, let's just leave them to it, there angry now but they will calm down and start talking to each other within an hour"
"Allright sounds good," Ash, Serena and Bonnie said collectively as a group
