I only own the characters i make up and the story line, NOT the pokemon or anything that clearly belongs to the creator and original owner of the actual Pokemon Series. With that said i hope you enjoy the 2nd chapter.

Chapter 2: 1st Cruise, Friend, and Pervert

"Come on, Sparky, lets explore around a bit," I said and started to walk ahead.

"Alright wait up," Sparky said catching up.

We walked around and saw so many people and Pokémon I have never seen before. They also had a pool, 'good thing I brought my swim suit,' I thought. Sparky seemed excited too. I was paying attention so much to what's around me that I didn't notice the person in front of me, but it was to late and I crashed into her.

"I am so sorry I wasn't looking where I was going," I apologized quickly, then I saw her black and dark purple hat with a teal flower design in the front on the ground and I picked it up also helping her up. "Here's your hat back," I said handing it back to her.

"It's ok I'm naturally clumsy I wasn't paying attention either," she said taking her hat back and placing it back on her head.

I was able to get a better look at her and she had long black hair and bangs that covered her right eye, cute short sleeve jacket, and baggy light blue jeans. She seemed nice and I asked, "So what's your name? Mine's Rita," and I put my hand out to shake.

She took my hand and shook it replying, "my name's Jereline but call me Jay for short."

"Awesome what region are you from?" I asked again.

"Johto just starting out, how about you?" she asked in return.

"I'm from Sinnoh I'm starting out on my journey too," I answered and then I said, "oh and this is my partner Sparky."

"Hi nice to meet ya," Sparky said even though she wouldn't understand him.

"Hello there and this is my partner Chikorita," Jay said.

"Hello it's a pleasure to meet a person and Pokémon from Sinnoh," Chikorita said.

"It is also my pleasure to meet a Pokémon and trainer from Johto," I said bowing a bit.

Jay then looked at me oddly along with Chikorita on how I understood that and gave a perfect response to her.

"Oh I might sound crazy, but this necklace helps me understand what Pokémon are saying like Chikorita tell me something about Jay I clearly don't know about," I told them both.

"Are you sure?" Jay asked.

"Its true come on Chikorita help us out please," Sparky pleaded.

"Ok … well Jay is claustrophobic tell her that," Chikorita responded.

"Great thanks, Chikorita," I thanked and then said to Jay, "Chikorita said you are claustrophobic."

Her eyes widened a bit and then she smiled, "that's cool I believe you."

"Oh good I thought you'd think I was crazy like everyone else," I sighed in relief. "So what room did you get I got 43."

"43, guess you're my new roomy," Jay replied.

"Awesome, can you show me and Sparky around this ship?" I asked.

"Sure we aren't doing anything lets show them around, Chikorita," Jay said walking ahead, "Follow the leader."

I laughed and followed the leader we saw and learned a lot about the boat where the food is, pool, main room, hang out area, everything. Then we made it to our room the sun still high in the sky.

"Let me open the door," Jay offered and as she said opened the door.

"Wow this is nice not to big not to small and my own," I complimented and ran and jumped on the bed. It also had a bathroom with a shower and drawers to put my stuff in.

"Sweet, make room!" Sparky shouted and jumped landing on top of my stomach.

"Hahaha, Sparky, that tickles," I laughed.

"Oh really," Sparky smirked and started tickling my sides having me dying of laughter.

I busted out in laughter, "N-no Sparky t-t-that t-tickles Hahaha s-s-stop hahahahahaha!"

"You and Sparky seem really close how long have you two been together?" Jay asked picking up Chikorita and setting on the other bed cuddling with her.

"To say the truth two days I got him yesterday," I replied sheepishly.

She seemed in shock for a minute, but shrugged it off. "It must be destiny," she concluded.

"Yeah guess you're right," I said grabbing Sparky and just hugging him close.

"I'm glad we're together," Sparky commented cuddling back.

"Me to buddy, me to," I said smiling.

"Jay, I want to go to the pool now," Chikorita said using vine whip and grabbing her beach towel.

It seemed she got the idea, "well I don't know, Chikorita, do we have too."

Chikorita kept bugging Jay like a young child until I decided to cut in, "actually I want to go in to it'll be fun I even brought a swim suit," I took out my two piece swim suit from my bag it was blue with white prints and the bottom was blue, but like a mini skirt.

"S-swim in the p-pool," Sparky stuttered.

"Yeah that's the point of going in a pool," Chikorita explained.

I began to grow suspicious, "Sparky are you afraid of the water?"

"W-what heck no, only a wimp would be scared of something like that. Lets go!" Sparky claimed and started heading out the door.

"Sparky! Let Jay and I change first," I called.

"Oh yeah, sorry," he said coming back.

"Lets take turns in the bathroom changing," I suggest.

"You can go first," Jay offered.

"Ok thanks," I said as I walked in.

Sparky's p.o.v

I shivered at the thought of the pool I can't swim and no one has ever bothered to show me how. I almost drowned when I was little and I vowed to never go in a pool, or any deep-water source again.

"Hey, Sparky, were you lying before about not being afraid of the water?" Chikorita asked, "you seemed pretty spooked about it when I mentioned it."

I snapped out of my little flash back and looked at her and spoke, "huh no way I ain't scared don't worry I'll be fine." Then I walked off getting Rita's sandals, towel, and goggles.

Time skip cause I am lazy -w-

Rita's p.o.v.

We walked onto the front of the ship and we saw everyone having fun. I was excited and so was Jay. I found us a spot with two reclined beach chairs and I set my stuff down.

"Come on let's go in that beautiful pool," I announced. I took off my towel that was covering me and didn't notice the boys that started checking me out. I also didn't wear my glasses. I noticed Sparky got a lil tense and I asked, "What's wrong Sparky?"

"Don't you notice all the boys staring at you?" Sparky growled.

I looked up and saw a bunch of guys put their heads down or look away I sighed, "ok I see your point don't worry none of them interest me, ok bud?"

"Well … ok if you say so," Sparky said and loosened up a bit.

"Good boy now lets all head in," I said.

"I'll just put my feet in the water for now," Jay said sitting and putting her feet in.

"I'm jumping," Chikorita decided and ran jumping and splashed in the water. "This is fun!"

"Ok my turn, make room!" I shouted about to go in till a hand grabbed mine gently. I was shocked and turned around to see a boy in light green trunks his long bangs seemed to defy gravity and his hair was a dark red, and he had green eyes.

"Hey beautiful did you know you're as pretty and cute as a mew I say a mew because that's how rare and legendary your beauty is," the boy suavely complimented me.

I was flattered, but kind of disgusted by him, but I decided to play along and be polite, "oh thank you um who are you exactly?"

"Oh please forgive my rudeness my little mew I am Ramon may I have the esteemed honor of knowing your name my mew," he asked in return. He then kissed my hand gently like a gentleman would.

I was slowly becoming more disgusted and wanted to get away from him I pulled my hand out from his grasp gently stepping closer to the pool. "It's Rita and nice to meet you," I said giving a fake smile. "And I ain't yours."

"Rita I like how that rolls off my tongue, such a beautiful name," he complimented and took a step closer.

But by then Sparky had, had enough of this poser sensing I was very uncomfortable and stepped in growling, "hey back of freak or I'll hurt you good!" he warned.

He gave Sparky a disgusted look that I noticed, but smiled again, "and who is this?"

"This is Sparky my Shinx and he doesn't like when strangers hit on me," I explained.

"Oh well I think he'd like to meet a friend of my own, hey electrike get over here," He called and his Electrike came running, he must be from the Hoehn region. "Go and 'play' with her Shinx," he told his electrike.

His electrike smirked and nodded and kept Sparky busy, "hey pip squeak why don't we just leave them alone for a while." And he stalked pushing Sparky back.

"Get out of my way retard," Sparky snapped.

"Shut it!" Electrike snapped and pushed Sparky and he almost fell in the pool.

"H-hey watch it," Sparky spat, fear showing in his gold eyes at the sight of the water.

I had also had enough, "Tell your electrike to back off from Sparky," I demanded.

"Come on ignore them they're just playing and lets get to know each other better, doll," Roman said seductively getting closer.

There was only one name I hated to be called and that was doll. I tried to step back, but was already at the edge of the pool then I got an idea and I wrapped my arms around his shoulders trying my best to look seduced. "Ok, but I want to take a dip in the pool first you seem a lil hot," I felt so disgusted having to say that.

"Oh but that'll rune my hair babe," he whined playfully about to grab my waist, but before he could I side stepped him and pushed him in the pool.

"Aaaaahhh!" He shouted and came out his bangs now covering his right eye.

"Hahaha, like I would ever get to know a pervy asshole like you," I laughed. I also had Jay, Chikorita, Sparky and a lot others laughing along with me.

"You will be mine!" he claimed then looked at his electrike. "Electrike push her Shinx into the pool, use tackle!"

I got worried and Sparky froze since he was at the edge and couldn't dodge to the side.

I shouted quickly, "Sparky, jump now!"

He did as I said quickly and his electrike tackled nothing, but the air and fell into the water like his trainer.

"Damn you Shinx!" His electrike shouted in rage.

"The name's Sparky, don't forget it punk," Sparky corrected standing tall.

"Loser I'll get you," electrike roared.

"Say's the Pokémon that threw himself into the pool," Sparky laughed having the other Pokémon laughing along with him.

By then Roman called back his electrike and they got out leaving the deck. I smiled happy they where finally gone.

"Girl, you crazy," Jay said in a sassy voice.

I simply laughed and replied; "thank you crazy is a compliment for me."

Jay just shook her head, "your odd I like that."

"I've been told," I said. Then I got in and saw Sparky staring at the water and I asked him, "Sparky could you get my goggles for me please?"

He snapped out of his stare and said, "Yeah give me a sec." And he ran off to my stuff got my goggles and placed them in my hand.

"Sparky, you want to learn how to swim?" I asked him.

"What? I know how I, uh, just don't want to," he said stubbornly.

"You're so bagon headed," I comment and I reach out my hands to him saying, "don't worry I'll hold you, you just have to promise to stay calm and trust me."

Sparky thought for a minute and shakily said, "O-ok I-I-I trust you." Slowly he advanced to the edge, but his blue sparks started to go all through out his fur. I could tell he got more and more scared as he neared the water.

"It's ok I'm here, stop the electricity and take a deep breath," I told him calmly and gently scooped him up in my hands, but I flinched in pain a little his electrified fur hurting me. "Please calm down, Sparky you're hurting me," I whimpered out.

Jay got worried and Chikorita said, "I can hold him with vine whip I won't get that badly hurt."

"No it's ok," I said stubbornly.

Sparky soon realized my pain and took deep breaths calming down and his sparks stopped.

"That's it Sparky now I'm going to slowly bring you in," I informed and slowly started bringing him down and once the water touched his tail sparks went through his fur again and I lifted him up and got shocked. "Ouch, Sparky," I whined in pain.

"Sorry, sorry," he apologized and stopped.

I set him fully in the water and said in glee, "hey your in Sparky."

He opened his eyes and saw he was really inside from neck to tail, and smiled cheering, "I am, I really am!"

"Hooray!" Jay cheered finally inside her self.

"That is amazing Sparky," Chikorita said happily swimming over to us.

"And considering we're in the three feet area," Jay pointed out.

"I'm so proud of you, Sparky, now to learn how to swim this is just a step in conquering your fear," I told him. I was really proud of him I felt like a great trainer right now.

"Then show me how teacher," Sparky said smiling.

So the long swimming lesson began I'm just glad I was the only one that got shocked by him.

Another time skip cause I can suckas!

The half moon shinned brightly as well as the gleaming stars. The waves crashed softly and everything, but the engines of the ship was silent, peaceful, and calm. Everyone was in his or her rooms getting ready for bed because tomorrow we finally arrive in Manico at last.

I was also one of those people drying my hair after a relaxing shower. "Man today was just awesome minus the pervert Ramon part," I say to Jay.

"Yeah it was fun," she said still keeping her attention on the video on her I pad.

Looking over at the floor I saw Chikorita and Sparky still playing. Then I see the clock and its close to eleven right now how time flies. I yawn out, "ok I think it's time to hit the hay don't you think?" I refer to Jay.

She looks at the time as well and nods in agreement ending the video. "Rita's right time for bed I'm beat," Jay agrees.

Chikorita then yawns, "Awww ok, Jay," and as Jay got under her covers Chikorita jumped up and buried herself under them. "Good night everyone."

Jay giggled, "Nighty night Chikorita, Rita, Sparky." And she hugged Chikorita quickly falling asleep.

I chuckled on how quickly she just fell asleep and I noticed Sparky jumping up looking tired as ever. I whispered to him, "tired from your swimming lesson?"

Sparky gave a big yawn and whispered back, "Yeah thank you Rita for showing me how you're the greatest trainer ever. And I'm sorry about shocking your hands a lot."

"Your welcome, Sparky, and its ok I'll live, I'm so proud of you," I say hugging him close.

He smiled and whispered before falling asleep, "this is in a brother to sister way … I love you Rita." With that said he fell soundly asleep in my arms.

I smiled and kissed the top of his head and whispered back, "I love you too, Sparky." Soon my eyes started getting heavy and I fell asleep dreaming of how Manico would be like. Oh I just can't wait.
