Chapter 2 Meeting the Gym Leader
Turtwig and I had found our way to the Oreburgh Mines at last. Sigh, it looked dark in there. But hey, why not go in there and try to find the gym leader? Ask him what's up. Yeah, why don't I do that. Mizu-san, you're such a baka. Don't I ever think before doing something I might regret? No, I don't. I walked into the mines. After traveling deep in them for a while I tripped over something, and fell flat on my face,
"Itai!" [Translation: Owch *Japanese*] I whined and sat up, "Damn, that hurt. What was that?" I mumbled looking back jumping out of my skin litteratlly,
"Ramph-Ramphardos!" [Translation: Clutz!] the Pokemon laughed.
"Ne?! You laughing at me big guy? I wouldn't be tal-!" I stood up but fell down, "I...Itai..." I lifted my pant leg up and saw a big bruise, "Stupid Pokemon."
"Ah, Ramphardos. There you are." a voice said.
I blinked, looking up at the man, still bearing the pain in my ankle, "What kind of trainer are you? Letting you Pokemon..." I winced in pain.
"Miss, are you okay?" he asked me worriedly.
"Does it look like I'm okay?" I snapped revealing my ankle, "I tripped over your stupid Ramphardos Damn. It looks like I sprained it." I sighed trying to get up again but I almost fell in the process.
"Miss if your hurt let me help." the man said walking over to me, "Sorry. I didn't mean for you to get hurt. I got so wrapped up in my work I wasn't paying attention to where my Pokemon was going." he said kneeling down, "Sit for a second. I have a first aid kit in my bag."
I blinked, doing as I was told. Who was he? He ... kind of looked cute... I mean, that red hair. His eyes, and those cute glasses? My face turned red as he took some bandages and a couple other things out of his bag,
"Here this will only hurt for a second." he held out a small bottle, and sprayed the cut on my ankle with it.
"N-Ne." I closed my eyes waiting for the pain to die away.
"Here I'll wrap some bandages around it." he held my ankle and slowly wrapped the bandages around it.
The blush never left my face as I watched him, "Ah. All done." he said cutting off the rest putting it back in his bag, he looked back up at me, "Please forgive me and my Pokemon. Gomenasai. [Translation: Sorry] " he gave me a apprehensive look, "Are you okay? Your face is getting a little red. Hopefully you're not getting a fever." he placed his warm hand on my hot forehead.
Kya. Oh God, this can't be happening. What's is happening to me? Why am I feeling like this?! I just met the guy, I don't even know his name! I gasped, then my eyes opened, "G-G-Gomen, I didn't introduce myself. My name's Mizu... Mizu Kurasaki." I smiled a little bit, "Don't worry about me. I'll be fine. What's your name?" I asked.
The man blinked, "Oh. My name's Hyouta. I'm the Oreburgh Gym Leader." he said proudly.
NEH?! Did he just say Oreburgh Gym Leader?!?
