A Tale of Gym Leaders

Chapter One: Meeting

Author's Notes: So, it has become that time where I finally post this entire story on here. It has been completed on other sites but I always intended it to be on here as well since there really isn't a fan fiction like this for these four Gym Leaders. And that is a shame since there is art of them together but no stories for certain. There is really only one story for two of them and that is only a one shot. So therefore I think it's time someone tried this.

Just a note that Elesa's chosen appearance from Black and White two was selected was because there isn't enough of that of her. I mean yes, I can understand why but I decided to do the second appearance since in the World Tournament when Volkner finally comes to Unova she looks like that instead. So with that thought in mind, I hope you enjoy this. Just a note that it takes place during some other stories of mine that if you want to read just let me know and I'll send links.

Falkner of the Violet Gym had made it on an invitation of Nicholas and Corrine. It was to the house they lived at. Or rather a castle like structure. He had been surprised by this but went with the flow. The Gym Leader was told there would be a few others showing up as well. Others he could relate to. Falkner figured it was more Gym Leaders. He hoped that Janine wouldn't show up due to the fact the two argued over whose father was the better Gym Leader. The male got tired of it pretty quickly.

Right now Falkner was at a ranch near the castle looking at all the Flying types Nicholas and Corrine had caught on their journey. It was divided up by regions. The Gym Leader had seen ones all the way up to the Sinnoh Region. Now he was on his way to the Unova section. The Gym Leader was impressed by the whole layout. And he liked that these Flying types were allowed to be their natural self while others watched or studied them. The male could tell that most importantly of all that they were happy.

The Gym Leader reached the Unova section. He had only heard of this Region, but had never gone to it due to it being so far away from Johto. That is until the World Tournament there. Even then he hadn't really been able to explore it. At least now he would be able to see new Flying types more easily this way. Falkner was about to head in to get a closer look when he spotted someone else leaning against a wooden post. The person was a bit too far away. Wondering who it could be, Falkner got a bit closer. "I wonder if this is one of the others Nicholas and Corrine invited," he wondered inside his head. The male Gym Leader then made it. "Hello there."

She turned to face him and in that moment, something passed between the two as they looked upon the other. Falkner felt his eyes go wide with shock. "Wow... she's beautiful..." thought the male. Her reddish-brown hair, blue colored eyes, and outfit that looked like a pilot but had quite the short shorts. Falkner had never seen someone like her before. Meanwhile the female couldn't help but think that this guy looked cool and handsome; even with his outfit. Just like almost every female who met Falkner. They couldn't help but blush a bit.

"Hey there," went the female, able to hold herself better. She cocked her head to the side cutely. "Are you one of those invited here?"

"Um... yeah," responded Falkner and blushing a bit more. Her rubbed the back of his head with his right hand nervously. "I wasn't expecting to run into anyone here..."

"Well Nicholas and Corrine told me about this ranch so I came to take a look. My name's Skyla."

"I'm Falkner."

"Well then, want to check out this part? I can tell you about all the Flying types found in Unova."

"Sure," he responded and they went on. This would lead to something great between the two.

Falkner went with Skyla over to the Unova part of the ranch to look at those Flying Types there. All the while he kept stealing glances at the female. There seemed to be no fault to her at all. Suddenly her voice snapped the male out of his thoughts.

"Here, take a look." He did so and could see new Flying Types that he didn't think were possible. Skyla then went on to explain what each were. Falkner listened to the female's explanation the whole time, just nodding. The female couldn't help but like it. And having an excuse to get quick glances at his features. Eventually the two would head to the Kalos area to check out the flyers there. All the while the two were talking, and getting to know the other better. Like they both used the same kind of Pokémon in their Gym battles. And that they had inherited the buildings from a relative. In his case it was his father, in her case it was her grandfather. They also discovered they had a lot in common.

"Damn... she's perfect," thought Falkner. "But then..." He glanced to the ground, not wanting to believe this beauty was taken. But the chances were lower than low. And even if that wasn't the case, why would someone like her want to be with him? Little did the male know she was thinking similar thoughts.

"I'm sure he's taken," thought the female. "Even if that wasn't the case, why would he be into you?" Both could only dream. Eventually the two would make it back in time for dinner. Both were still talking.

Meanwhile Volkner from Sunyshore City Gym had made it like the others invite to Nicholas and Corrine's place. The only reason why he had decided to do so was because he had been bored and figured a vacation would do him some good. Not that there hadn't been any Trainers to battle and beat him, it was just it was slow at the moment. So taking his Electric Types with him, the male Gym Leader had made his way to the castle like building.

He had been told that other Gym Leaders would be coming as well. Volkner couldn't help but wonder who would be coming. Some he had met at the Pokémon World Tournament that had been held in the Unova Region. But the male was sure there were a lot more. He had already met one he had never before; Falkner. Volkner thought the kid was alright even though he was certain that the Flying Type Gym Leader wouldn't stand a chance against him and his Pokémon.

It was around dinner time when Volkner made it to the dining room of the castle. He liked that Nicholas and Corrine had invited him here. After all, those two had really given him quite a thrill batting him. The growling of his stomach snapped the Gym Leader back to reality. Looking at the food and drinks set out he could see that they were for humans and Pokémon. Poke food and things called Poke Puffs were out on shiny trays and bowls. There was a variety of regular food and drinks. No alcohol, but things like water, soda, and punch. Volkner helped himself before finding a spot. The food was good. Deciding that his Pokémon should have some, the Gym Leader let them out. He could tell that they did enjoy it. After eating they spent some time socializing with the other Pokémon in the room.

Suddenly Volkner felt he was being watched. Turning his head he found himself looking at a female with black hair that was short except for two long strands that went down to her stomach. She had on silver colored headphones that had two points on it. Her frame was a thin, yet healthy build and she had quite the lovely blue eyes. "Hello there," she said with a sweet smile.

The male couldn't speak at first as he took in her beauty. "Uh... hey," he managed to mumble while blushing. His hand went to his pockets and he looked down at the ground. He didn't see that this woman also had a bit of blush on her face. Her eyes narrowed a bit as her smile got softer as she took in his good looks.

"Why so serious? You need to loosen up a bit." Volkner's eyes met hers again. He couldn't help but smile.

"Alright then. I guess you're one of the Gym Leaders Nicholas and Corrine invited here?"

"Yes, I'm Elesa. I use Electric types."

"No kidding; me as well. Although you may have noticed my team members that were sent out."

"I did," responded Elesa. "I've never seen them before and I get excited to meet new Electric types. Maybe you could show them to me?"

"Certainly. I'm Volkner by the way."

"Well it's nice to meet you." The two then went over with Volkner lead Elesa over towards his Pokémon who were eating. "Oh my..." stated the female. "Look at them. I've never seen ones like these."

"You like them?" he asked.

"I like seeing new Electric types," explained the female. "Unova after all is isolated from the rest of the regions."

"Yeah," Volkner agreed. He then explained what each of his Pokémon were. The one he was most proud of was his male Luxray. The male couldn't help but notice a female Emolga was trying to get near his Luxray.

"Emolga, what are you doing?" asked Elesa with a grin; she had noticed as well. The female Pokémon scurried away cutely. Luxray continued to eat.

"I'm sorry about that, she's very curious," explained the female Gym Leader.

"Nah, it's cool," responded Volkner. Both of them then went to get their own food and continued to talk. It was during this that he learned that Elesa was also a model. It left him sad, knowing that this beautiful woman was out of his reach. But Elesa was also thinking similar thoughts; that this guy was too good for her. On one occasion, she couldn't help but notice her friend Skyla talking with a blue colored hair man. The female Electric Gym Leader assumed this new guy was another guest invited.

During her friend's time of eating, Skyla couldn't help but notice her friend Elesa taking to a guy with spiked, yellow hair as well. She then saw the two go over to what she assumed was his Pokémon. Eventually dinner was finished and both Falkner and her continued to talk until it was time to head to bed. Both said goodnight and couldn't help but walk to their rooms with a smile. When they fell asleep, their thoughts were of the other. Volkner and Elesa also stated goodnight when it was that time and were easily asleep also heading for something greater than they could expect.
