I don't own Pokemon

Would have updated this earlier, but thunder storm came, interrupting me from watching the live premier of Harry Potter And The Deathly Hallows - which I did cry during. And I not care what you think about me crying, I am a massive Harry Potter fan. I would have been at the premier, but I doubt my mom would have let me fly across the Atlantic Ocean just to see a premier.

Anyway, here is chapter 2 of my story, I hope you like it!

"Budew?"

"Hm? Hello, Budew, where's Crawford?" Kate asked as Crawford's partner Budew jumped onto her lap.

"Right here." Crawford was leaning against a tree when Kate turned towards him.

"How did you get here?"

"You showed me this place the day after you found it. I actually come here when I'm feeling sad or lonely, too." Crawford kicked off the tree and sat down besides Kate. "Your dad let's me walk in and just sit with the Pokemon."

"That's because Dad doesn't see you as a threat," Kate replied.

"A threat? Why would I be a threat?" Crawford asked confused.

"Dad doesn't think you're a threat for my heart. He sees you only as a friend."

"I'm more than a friend; I'm your best friend. Besides, you're more of a little sister than a romantic interest," Crawford stated.

"Agreed, you're like my big brother. I can talk to you about anything."

"So, why are you so down?" Crawford asked.

"It's just, I had this strange dream. It was about Operation Brighton. Blake Hall had taken hostage Munchlax and Isaac. Maybe it was a nightmare given to me by Darkrai, but I'm not sure. What do you think?" Kate informed.

"Well, Operation Brighton was five years ago, why would you suddenly get this nightmare now, why not before?" Crawford suggested.

"Unless the nightmare is a warning of something that's going to happen," Kate realized.

"That's possible," Crawford admitted.

"You know what I think, we need to take a trip to Altur Tower."

"Not complaining, but why did you drag me along with you?" Crawford asked as he, Kate, and Wendy stood outside Altur Building.

"I didn't want to figure out this whole nightmare-mysterish-thing without my two best friends!" Kate exclaimed as they walked into the lobby.

"Excuse me, I'm sorry, no one without permission my gain access to the higher levels without a tour guide," an employee standing by the elevator said. "Oh, I'm sorry; I didn't recognize you, Miss Kate. Please, go anywhere you like, you have full run of the place."

The group walked into the elevator and Wendy pointed out, "We need a key or password to leave this ground floor. Do we have one?"

Kate walked to the keypad and typed in a password. "I know Isaac's password, and with it, we'll be brought to level nine."

Kate hopped out of the elevator and ran for the steps to the top floor of the Altur Building when,

"Ahh!"

"I'm so sorry, Kate! Here let me help you." It was Isaac. Kate was sitting on the ground while Isaac's fall was caught by the stairs. Isaac helped Kate up.

"What brings you here? It's not often the hero of Almia just stops by Altur for a visit."

"I'm just dragging Wendy and Crawford up to the Luminous Crystal with me to make sure everything's okay. I had this strange dream about it last night, but it's probably nothing."

"Okay, well, when you're done, will you meet me in the control room three floors down from the top of the tower?" Isaac asked – his face looked a bit pinker, but it was beginning to fell warm to Kate, as well.

"Sure!" Kate replied. i Ice's floor /i she thought.

"Thank you. I just need to bring these reports down; I'll see you in a bit." Isaac walked off towards the elevator and disappeared.

"Wonder what that was about," Crawford stated.

"It doesn't matter, let's get to the crystal," Wendy advised.

"It looks okay," Kate muttered as she carefully inspected the crystal.

"Maybe one of us should stay up here." Crawford glanced at Wendy. "That way, they can keep an eye on the crystal," he concluded.

"Then you should, Crawford, because you suggested it," Wendy replied. Crawford quickly glanced at Kate for help. He was not a fan of heights and definitely did not want to be left alone so high up. "Don't look so scared Crawford, it's not that bad. Naw, I'll stay, you go get back to solid terraferma," Wendy teased.

Kate laughed as her friends poked fun at each other.

About five minutes later, Kate announced that the Luminous Crystal seemed fine. Wendy hide on the top floor and if anything suspicious happened, she would immediately contact Kate. And Barlow messaged Crawford saying he was needed in Vientown. Which just left Kate to meet up with Isaac.

This chapter took up five and a half pages in my notebook, so I hope it is a good length. Thank you so much for reading!
