Red

At our eighth period, it was our free time. The school was supposedly still figuring out what to do. Green's hand was heavily bandaged, and he was staring blankly out the window the whole time. I felt a bit bad for him. I didn't know what was happening, but it seems as if he had a lot of things in his mind. Then again, so did I.

After school, I had to drag Green out from the room and outside. We met up with Blue and I contacted my parents letting them know I was going to stay with Blue for tonight. They agreed, I feel as if my parents felt my urgent feeling and how I was desperately wanting to be with her and Green tonight. I needed to know what was happening. It hurt my two best friends!

I knocked on the door of Green's house. However, instead of Blue's voice, I heard a male voice. "Who is it?" I cleared my throat it must be her parents... Erm... Weren't they on vacation? I looked over to see Green staying quiet. "Red and Green." The voice sounded again, "Oh. You must be Nee-san's friends... Both of you are male. Stay out."

I felt cold sweat drip down from my forehead, we can't go in because of our gender?! Nee-san?! Green has a little brother? We never heard about this! "Red? Green?" I turned to face Blue, "Blue?" Blue looked at us confused, "What are you doing out here just go in already."

I simply smiled and knocked again, "Umm..." "Go away." Blue sighed and spoke, "Silver open up." "Nee-san?" A boy with long scarlet hair opened the door. He looked at Blue and then at me and Green. Annoyed, he opened the door wider and walked off to his room. I watched his back confused. Blue gave a soft smile, "He's adopted. I never told you guys, but he's been with me for a long time... He needs to warm up to others. You see he's home-schooled."

I nodded, "He doesn't seem comfortable around others..." Blue nodded, "Yea. Come on in! We can talk in the living room. I don't want Silver to listen to us. He's supposed to be enrolling the school next year~ I'm forcing him too!" I laughed uncertainty as Blue spoke happily.

Once we got in the living room, Green took a seat on a chair. I sat on the sofa as Blue sat on the arm of the sofa. I glanced at Blue then Green and spoke, "Spill." Green, who hasn't spoken a single word after he told me he was going to tell me and Blue what was happening, spoke up, "A war."

I raised an eyebrow as Blue spoke up, "That private war we were discussing earlier?!" Green nodded, "Yea, it's the real deal. However, Rocket Private wishes to bring students up to it." I gasped, "What?!" Green scowled, "It's just what I said, they want to bring in students to the war so that they are in an advantage. Rocket Private's students must learn how to fight and battle. So that they can take down Pokemon Academy."

His bandaged arm was shaking with fury. I noted not to say anything for now. Green seethed, "Gramps knew and that's the reason he became a teacher there, but he told just as I went to his class. He's been helping out the entire time and didn't tell me!"

That explained why he was so mad. I glanced over to Blue who had an angered face as well. Green spoke again, "Blue, was controlled by Ghastly, and we were attacked by Shadow Ball. That replica of the building is there to protect the students and make Rocket Private believe that's the actual school."

Blue hissed, "Why didn't you tell us this when we went over there?!" Green looked at her, "I wanted to check it out. Also even if I did protest, Pesky Woman, You would've ignored me." Blue flinched, it was true. I got up and touched Blue's shoulder, "Calm down. You too Green." Green nodded in response.

Blue pasted a smile on her face quickly, Green scowled, "Stop it with the act. Just act upset if you are. Don't be such a pesky woman." Blue's smile faltered and fell, "... It's just..." I stood up, "Let's go check out that building tomorrow!" Both my childhood friends looked up at me, "What?" Only Blue responded. Green didn't seem too shocked.

I nodded, "Let's skip school tomorrow and visit that place again! If it's really a war, to protect the school and our friends, we should honestly fight back." Blue and Green exchanged glances. Green shrugged s Blue looked uncertain. Soon she sighed, "Fine, we'll skip school... this is really ruining the image I wanted to have..."

I looked at her, "You never told me what your image was supposed to be!" Green rolled his eyes as Blue answered with a wink, "Well, of course, sweetie! A hot, an honor roll cutie that's extremely smart!" Green again, ignored her and stood up, "I'm going back. There's no point of me staying here right?"

Blue grabbed his arm and held him tightly, "Don't go!" She whined, "I need you two to stay here! At least for this night! The Professor might not even know about why you have a bandage! Wouldn't it be annoying to tell him what happened!" Green glared at her but didn't move.

I laughed, we were dragged into Blue's wants again. Then her little brother walked out, "Nee-san?" He stared at Blue who was tightly hugging Green's arm and whining about him to stay for the night. Green immediately snatched his arm away from Blue who stuck out her tongue. She turned to face her brother, what was his name again... Silver?

Blue explained, "Silver, these two Nii-sans are going to stay with us for the night, they're my childhood friends, you know the ones I always talk about~! That one, though," She pointed at Green, "Might stay here a couple more times okay?" She ruffled his hair and hummed, "Now to find a place for you guys to sleep..."

Blue squealed, "Can one sleep in your room Silver? Please~" Silver looked up at his sister slightly annoyed, but didn't disagree and walked away. "I'll stay in the living room," Green walked off back to the living room, as Blue grabbed my arm and dragged me upstairs. "Here you go Red! That's Silver's room. Erm... Have fun!"

I watched dumbfounded at Blue's action before I knocked on the door. "..." I knocked again. "..." Extreme confusion washed over me, didn't he go up here just a few moments ago? I knocked once more. *knock* *knock* *thunk* "Thunk?" I repeated the sound and noticed I hit Silver. I grinned sheepishly, "Oh... 'Thunk'..." I accidentally hit the younger boy when he opened the door.

Silver glared up angrily at me but let me in nevertheless. I thanked him politely feeling awfully bad I hit his head. Silver didn't seem to talk much. When I looked around his room I noticed blankets with a set of pillows on the floor. He was making this for me... I felt extremely grateful for the little boy. "Thanks, Silver." He looked up from his book, "?" I nodded at the setup, "Thanks." He nodded and looked back down at his book.

I glanced at the book, "What are you reading Silver?" He raised the book up for me to see. I climbed on his bed and looked at the cover, "Oh, a Pokemon encyclopedia..." I looked down at my belt. Silently I took out a hidden Pokeball. Silver looked at it with curiosity as I opened it, Poliwhirl appeared. Poliwhirl was my first Pokemon, and one of my friends, I had him since he was a Poliwag.

Silver nodded, "Is that not allowed in school?" I chuckled, "Yep, it's not allowed. That's why it's hidden." Silver retorted, "That's why I don't want to go, Sneasel will be lonely." A Sneasel appeared next to Silver automatically. I stared at it. I never knew that Silver had a Pokemon. He raised the book up, "It's all about Pokemon and battles." I smiled and nodded, made sense."

I smiled and patted his back, "Hey I could help you if you want. I know tons of things about Pokemon, attacks and all. Well..." I rubbed the back of my neck, "Not all, all but I might know things more than that book says. Silver seemed interested, he folded the page and closed it looking up at me. "Tell me." I laughed, "Sneasels can communicate with each other and Pokemon by leaving messages on trees. And going around territories, their really kind."

Silver stared at me, "I knew that." I smiled awkwardly, "Erm, Poliwhirl is the evolution of Poliwag and when it evolves it becomes a-" "Poliwrath," Silver spoke clearly looking at me with an unsatisfied face, "It's in the book." He spoke dryly. I nervously giggled, "Oops? Well then... You should talk to Green, he's more knowledgeable on Pokemon, he is the grandson of Professor Oak!" I said laughing.

Silver seemed interested even though he tried his best not to show it, 'Really?" I nodded, "Yea, he's his grandson. However, it might be hard to even just talk to him... He isn't that friendly... He never was haha. But I guess he would've been easier to talk to when he was still young, we were both arrogant back then. After being gone for a short time he changed. yet, that' s a different story for another time."

Silver stared at me curiously before looking away quickly, "The fact you told me..." I tilted my head, "What?" Silver spoke again, "The fact you told me about Sneasel. Nee-san told me about it. It's not in the book, she said she learned it from a friend." I spoke quickly, "That would be Green!" Silver nodded, "Okay..."

I walked over to the mattress made of blankets and laid down, "I don't know how it is when you're home-schooled, but I'm going to sleep. Night Silver." I pulled the blanket over me and closed my eyes, I wonder what this school year is going to be like...

Next morning, I was woken up by Blue. She kicked me in the stomach. I looked up at her holding my tummy, "The heck!" She whisper-shouted, "Hush! You'll wake Silver! Come on, we're going to school!" I whined slightly, "I thought we weren't going until later! Weren't we going to skip school?" Green walked in on us, he was wearing his necklace as usual.

Black t-shirt with a fur collared coat. He wore green pants with boots. Blue was wearing her old black tight dress, except that there was a difference. It was usually down to her knees, but it was a lot shorter now. I wonder if she's wearing the same thing... She wore long white socks with sandals.

I looked at her slightly annoyed before she thrust clothes into my face. It was my cap, jacket, t-shirt, and pants. Even my bandana I tied around my leg. I blinked up at her, "What's all these clothes for?" Green sighed, as Blue explained, "We can't go in wearing our school uniforms! We'll get caught!"

I retorted, "We look weirder in these clothes!" Blue sighed, "They're easier to wear and move in now go, hurry up and change!" I groaned, "Where?" Blue shook her head, "The bathroom!" I dragged my tired feet to the bathroom and started changing.

Once I came out I noticed that Silver was still sleeping. I gave a small grin at the sight of the young boy sleeping seeing that he is doing something I never got to do at his age. Sleep in. I walked out to see Green and Blue waiting for me. Green motioned us over and we walked ahead to the school. I murmured yawning, "What time is it again?"

Blue whispered, "Five." Green sighed as I yelled, "What?!" Blue hushed me and I covered my mouth. After a while, I whispered, "Why so early?!" Blue shrugged, "So no one will find out and we get a good whole day of checking this out?" I gave a tight frown but said nothing in return. I don't want to mess with Blue early in the morning... Nor Green.

We reached our location quickly. Almost automatically all three of us were forced to our knees by the ground shaking. Blue yelled, "Someone is using earthquake!" Green yelled back, "Obviously!" I hissed and clenched my teeth, "Come on..." Then it stopped. We got up quickly only to find someone staring down at us. They had an Arbok. "Oh?"

All three of us reached for our first Pokemon. I had Poli, the Poliwhirl. Blue had a Jigglypuff and Green a Scizor. The person laughed, "This school does have students! It's not a fake one after all!" Green threw his Pokeball at her face immediately. I smiled as Blue and I did the same thing. "Poli use water gun!"

The person dodged while laughing, "How cute~! To think you can take me down with suck amateur Pokemon! You each only have one too! Well... You're outnumbered." We looked around to find more goons surrounding us. Green gave a tight frown as Blue simply laughed and winked, "We can take you guys down any day!"

I don't know how long our fight lasted, the three of us were trained trainers, but we weren't that good. There were too many of them. "Poli!" "Scizor!" "Jiggly get up!" All three of our Pokemon were out and only three Pokemon remained. We were so close! Blue still had her ace, Ditto, but I doubted that Ditto could take them all out. The three seemed to be extremely skilled. We returned our Pokemon, I was biting my lower lip, curse them... Then something round was pushed into my hand as Blue took out two more Pokemon.

What? When did she have three Pokemon? I knew she had a Ditto, but... Then Blue yelled, "Let's kick their butts!" A Squirtle and her Ditto came out. I felt myself smiling as Green smirked. I forgot, Blue's a stealer. I gripped the ball given from her in my hand tightly. I threw it out and yelled, "Saur let's do this!" Green Calmly threw out Charmander and gave a wide grin. "I think you're the ones outnumbered now."

The person clicked their tongue and retreated with their friends. Green quickly noted straightening up and dusting himself, "They're students from Rocket Private it seems." Blue looked at him shocked, "Students?!" Green nodded, "Yea, who else. Come on thief, we need to check the fake out." Blue huffed, "Thief? I saved your sorry butts!" "By stealing." "Well excuse you!" I gave a small smile at my two bickering friends. We walked in slowly and looked around, "... Wow..."

Green gave a slight nod, the place was really familiar. It was almost an exact replica of the interior as the original. I heard Green speak to Blue irritated, "When did you steal them?" Blue retorted, "It wasn't stealing! I was saving them for later." "By stealing." "That's not the point!" Blue fumed, "I thought that they would come in handy later so I took them okay?!" Green nodded, "At least you admitted to stealing them." Blue growled, "I took them." Green shrugged, "Without permission, that's basically stealing."

Blue quickly thought up with something, "He never said we couldn't steal them!" Green sighed, "He did." Blue frowned, "When?" Green opened his mouth, but Blue shook her head. She complied to the still silence and I turned around sheepishly, "Hey we should check this place out more..." Green give me a nod in agreement. We walked around and found tons of dummies here. Suddenly the dummies started to walk. Green pulled me and Blue back.

"They must be automatic. They walk around to make it look as if there are students in here to fool Rocket Private, but if their students are trying to infiltrate this place and go inside, they'll find out quickly... Then it will only be a matter of time before they find out," Green explained his thoughts. Blue smiled, "It's been a long time since I heard you so pumped up for anything! A long time since you spoke this much too."

Green looked away, his bangs covering his face. Blue frowned I pinched her and whispered, "Look at what you did!" Blue quieted down again and we continued to look around. It was almost the end of the day.

Green sighed, "We should go now, it's getting dark. I have to-" Blue interrupted him, "Go to Red's house tonight! let's just say you ran away from home okay? You'll have a hard time escaping him." Green shook his head annoyed, "Then I shouldn't go to school. I'll go home and explain to him. Plus... I want to talk to him." Green waved his hand. "No need." We all turned, a figure was approaching us.
