(P.s SOMEONE! ANYONE! Read Oblivia's new heroes! I worked for HOURS on it!)
"There it is! The Evermore Village Contest Hall!" Dawn laughed breezily, holding onto Piplup lovingly.
(NARRATOR)
("The contest starts tomorrow afternoon, and our three heroes have finally arrived in Evermore village for Dawn's big contest.)
"Hey Ash! Look what the Gengar dragged in!" Brock nudged his raven-haired companion, making the electric rodent, who was conveniently propped on Ash's shoulder, wobble and loose his balance.
"Huh?" Ash snapped out of his daydream, glancing away from the terracotta contest hall, and facing his tanned older friend.
Brock was pointing to the side of a cream building, where two teenage boys were battling fiercely.
The boy on the right had chestnut coloured hair. He wore a green and white jacket, blue jeans and a determined look.
The boy on the left, however, was slightly taller, with blonde gelled hair and an orange and white striped jumper. Not forgetting his lime green scarf which was attached around his neck.
Both boys were battling furiously with Piplup's evolved forms.
The boy with brown hair had a tough-looking Prinplup, which kept shooting foamy jets of H20 at the blonde boy's POKéMON.
The blonde boy was calling for his majestic looking Empoleon to hit Prinplup with beams of ice.
"Is that…?" Ash began, squinting towards the scene which was unfolding before his chocolate coloured eyes.
"BARRY! AND KENNY TOO!" Dawn yelled, dropping poor Piplup and sprinting over excitedly.
"D-Dee, D-Dee?" Kenny stuttered, the blue, bubbly co-ordinator distracting him form the match.
Barry spotted an opportunity to finish up the match.
"Empoleon! Hydro Cannon Now!" he commanded.
Poor Kenny had no time to react as his brave penguin hit the ground with a thud, it's eyes swirling.
"PRINPLUP!" Kenny cried, dashing into the field towards his fallen starter.
"You were brilliant, I'm sorry I let you down just then." Kenny sighed, returning the tired POKéMON to it's Pokéball.
"OMIGOSH! Barry! Good to see you!" Dawn squealed loudly, clutching onto Barry's arm, whilst a clearly irritated Piplup faced up to it's final evolution.
"Dee-Dee? What are you, doing here!" Kenny spluttered, his face turning pink.
Dawn heard Kenny's familiar voice, and turned to face the chestnut haired boy, beaming.
Kenny almost choked as he took in Dawn's features and her figure.
Dawn had grown up. A LOT.
Her royal blue eyes sparkled happily and her navy blue locks sprung into slight curls around her light-skinned face.
"KENNY! Long time no see!" Dawn giggled, holding out her hand for him to shake. Kenny gulped as the two's skin touched for a second.
"That was an AWESOME battle! Prinplup is definitely looking MUCH stronger!" she commented, making Kenny blush sheepishly.
"T-Thanks, Daw… Dee-Dee!" Kenny laughed, glancing over to Ash and Brock.
"Hey! How about a battle when Empoleon's fully recovered Ash?" Barry challenged, making Ash smile at the energetic boy.
"Why not!" Ash laughed heartily, glancing at his yellow rodent who was greeting the giant Emperor Penguin.
"I'm entering the Evermore Village contest tomorrow! I'm guessing that's the reason you're here?" Dawn questioned Kenny, giggling at Piplup who was squaring up to Barry's Empoleon.
"Yep, and I plan to WIN!" Kenny posed the victory sign, his egoistic spark suddenly faded as he was interrupted from his moment of glory, by Dawn yelling at him.
"NO WAY! ME AND PIPLUP ARE SO GONNA BEAT YOU AND WIN!" Dawn screamed, Piplup joining her in the chorus of disagreement.
"Well, the contest actually doesn't start till tomorrow evening, so… "Brock began, before Kenny and Dawn crossed their arms and faced away from each other in the same way Ash and Misty used to do.
Ash chuckled at the all too familiar stance of the two young bickering teens, but his thoughts were interrupted as he heard another distant but familiar voice.
"You were awful Flareon, I expect better tomorrow…" The cobalt haired boy growled, his orange eeveelution ignored him however, and faced in the opposite direction to it's trainer.
As the boy was about to scold his somewhat cocky and reckless Flareon further, Ash stepped forward, Pikachu perched in a fighting stance on his shoulder.
"Having trouble Paul?" Ash teased, his current rival scowling at him.
"Nope. My Flareon is behaving like one of your pathetic POKéMON because, I, ONLY JUST GOT IT." Paul retorted, a slight smirk apparent as he watched Ash's hands bawl into fists.
"Oh yeah? That's rich. Coming from someone who usually ABANDONS POKéMON because he can't be bothered to train them." Ash sneered, raising his eyebrows at the stony teenager.
"I've come to WIN the Evermore mansion contest." Paul snapped, glaring at Ash.
"Oh yeah! Not if I win first!" Ash yelled, his russet eyes full of fury.
"Where is this, mansion!" he spat angrily.
Paul glanced at the raven-haired boy incredulously, his face full of surprise.
"In the contest hall, but I'll warn you, the place is apparently haunted beyond belief." Paul smirked, watching Ash Ash's expression changed to one of horror.
"I-I'm not afraid of any stupid ghosts!" Ash's voice wavered as if he were a five year old in a school playground, standing up to a bully.
FACT: Ash was actually TERRIFIED of ghosts.
"Well then, I guess I'll see you there." Paul waved to a bewildered Ash, Flareon trotting beside it's owner.
As soon as Paul had gone, Ash's eyes began to fill with determination once again.
"We'll see who has the last laugh…" He murmured. His russet orbs fixed on his cobalt haired rival's retreating figure.
