Chapter 2- Nothing new, right?
"Hey, miss! What are you doing?!" he yelled out to the dark figure. He ran up to the girl only to see that he was too late. She already jumped down and was falling straight down towards the sea. Volkner face palmed- who could possibly have a more boring and depressing life than him? "Shit! I was too late! He cursed. Then he peered down, had it not been his lack of swimming ability, he'd have saved her, but he just couldn't.
Suddenly he saw the strangest thing ever happening. He even rubbed his eyes to believe what was happening at all. The girl had stopped falling, she was stationary! Rather, she was not only mid way; she was actually levitating high and floating up to the surface. Volkner couldn't help but blink- what the hell was going on!? He just stared at the strange woman who levitated all the way to the top of the cliff, closing her and eyes and then landed on top of the cliff with her hands in the air, now opening her eyes. When Volkner felt a little saner, he was astounded by this lady.
She had dark hair which was really long and wore a strange outfit. Her eyes were steely black and looked really cold, albeit pretty. Volkner was amazed- such beauties actually existed in the world?
Still in shock, he fainted. The girl looked over at him and clicked her tongue. "Mortals; never understand these things." She spat while dropping some water on his face. He then woke up slowly and then screamed when he saw the girl. "Aaaaaaaaaaargh! What are you doing!? Have I died and gone to heaven? Or is this hell?" She rolled her eyes. "No, you are alive and so am I. I am a psychic; I'm bound to be this way. Here, let me help you up." After grasping his hand and pulling him up, he looked into her eyes.
"What are you doing?" she asked him. "Err, nothing. The name's Volkner. Yours?" he spat. "Sabrina. Nice to meet you Volkner." She said shaking his hand. "Why on earth were you jumping off that cliff?" he asked. "I'm a telekinetic, which means I can move thing using my mind. I was practicing levitation. I'm sorry of I scared you." She answered. "Down a cliff? Are you insane? What if it failed?!" he yelled. "I have enough confidence in my abilities." She answered sweetly and then spoke "What on earth is a nice young guy doing here anyway?"
"Running away. My life is a horrible bore and I can't stand it anymore. I have no friends, no life, no enjoyment or passion and it just sucks. Problem miss?" he answered. "Sad life. I was just like you too, you know. Ever since I discovered my powers, I-" Volkner cut her short. "I don't need to listen to any sob stories, thank you very much. As it is I'm depressed enough!" he scoffed. Sabrina scowled- this guy was a rude jerk.
"Why not try something? What do you like doing?" she asked him. "Electronics, mechanics, I aced tons of Physics majors as a young one. The problem is it is so consuming, I suck up the whole power source of my city. So, they were close to kicking me out. I am the Gym Leader of Sunyshore City." He answered. "So that is ruled out. Any other ideas, miss? Or should I just get back to my life if you please?"
"Rather your existence." She scowled. "This guy is weird." Volkner just walked away calmly. His work was done; the girl was saved and strangely enough he felt a huge worry get off his chest. "Come on, Luxray; let's leave." He beckoned to the lion as it followed its master. Sabrina meanwhile, was seeing more than she should. "He is cute." She thought and checked him out- quite cute he was for a misanthrope. Anyways, shrugging the thought, she walked off to do more practice as she brought out her Alakazam. "Hello, there, dear. Today, we are practicing the whole concept of psycho kinesis. Remember when we last learned hypnosis? Now I'll teach you today how to use this to an even extra advantage" she explained to the strange Pokémon who just nodded in agreement. "Good. Let's start!" she chirped up happily and raced off with her Pokémon not caring about that crazy guy which was rare for her. Psychics were sensitive people. She trained her Alakazam for a while, who seemed to be getting the hang of the whole thing. After an hour's training, she looked at him and smiled "Good girl! I'm so proud of you! I know you can't stand me talking like this, but well, it works, doesn't it? I really love you!" Alakazam had no objections; rather she liked the mushier Sabrina. It was so her.
After hugging her, Sabrina suddenly piped "Let's play tag! You're it!" and touched Alakazam's arm and started running around the forest. She happily joined her; Sabrina could be a real bundle of joy at times.
Volkner meanwhile was lying down on his sleeping bag and watching Luxray play with Raichu and sighed "At least they are having fun." Then Luxray ran up to him and suddenly nuzzled him. "Whoa! Hey, waht happened?" he asked him untilo he realised that Luxray wanted to cheer him up. Volkner smiled- his Pokémon cared too much for him. "Alright I'll be a bit nice. But only for now. Now, let's play something. What's on your mind?" he asked. Luxray started pinning him down, indicating tag. Volkner chased the lion round and round until he caught him and the chase re began. Luxray caught up with him too fast though and pinned down Volkner in an instant. "Haha! Stop it, bud!" he yelled but Luxray wouldn't stop licking him. It tickled him no end Volkner sighed- he loved his pokemon to pieces. What would he be without them?
