Chapter 1
Fishing
Fishing was boring.
Raiden had fallen asleep. Lady, Rubin's Poochyena, was also dozing. The only reason I even agreed to go fishing with Rubin was so I could tell him about the letter. No one knew about it. I could tell Rubin just about anything, and he gave great advice. But I couldn't help but feel nervous about telling him.
"Rubin? Can I tell you something?"
He paled. "You're not pregnant, too, are you?"
"What? No! Why did you even ask that?"
"Just making sure," he said, tugging at his hat.
I pinched the bridge of my nose. "Can I tell you now?"
"Of course!"
"I got this letter," I said, shifting my fishing rod to one hand so I could take the paper out and hand it to him. "I think it's from Chase."
He read the letter in seconds. He frowned. "Chase's real name is Grey. But he died! Unless he faked his death. That means he's the traitor." He gave me a stern look. "Topaz, this is serious! You should tell Tibbs!"
I shook my head. "No. The less people involved, the better. I don't want anyone to get hurt."
"You've been hurt enough already, Topaz," he said. "Physically and emotionally. You can only take so much."
I brushed my bangs out of my eyes. "I know, I know," I sighed. "We've been at this for hours. Can we take a break and eat lunch?"
"Of course!"
A few minutes later, we were sitting on quilted table cloth with food. Sandwiches, lemonade, cookies, potato and macaroni salad. Rubin made it all. We released our Pokemon to feed them. Rubin had Sir, his Mudkip, and Serenity, the Swablu he recently caught, along with Lady.
"You put Diamond himself to shame, Rubin," I said. "Food is awesome as always."
"Don't talk with your mouth full!" he chided. "See? You got crumbs on your face!" He leaned forward to wipe my face with his napkin.
Suddenly, Lady headbutted him, while Raiden did the same to me. We fell forward. Somehow, we totally missed the normal forehead smash. Instead, it was a lip crash. Our lips collided in an unintended kiss. We broke apart immediately, turning to swat the Pokemon who instigated it.
"Raiden, you little rat!"
"Shame on you, Lady!"
The rest of the lunch was spent in awkward silence. Then we went back to fishing. Ten minutes later, we each got a bite. I yanked the line out of the water, and started reeling in. I gasped.
I caught a Magikarp.
Rubin squealed with delight. I glanced over to see that he caught a Feebas. It was a hideous little fish. It made my Magikarp look like a super model. Rubin took a Great Ball out of his bag and captured the Feebas. Then he released it again.
"I'll name you Beauty!"
That was a perfect name.
So I used my own Great Ball to catch the Magikarp. I didn't know why. Something told me to. I wracked my brain for names. I decided on Neptune.
"Well, isn't this cute. Catching weakling Pokemon together, huh?"
Things went downhill then.
Wow, this chapter was short.
So Topaz and Rubin have the equivalent fish to their regions that are super weak until they evolve xD
Anyways...Who interrupted them?
