Serenity Farm Early morning
"Good Morning miss Serenity" Elsa said as she walked into the kitchen wearing a simple set
of light blue pajamas
"..mornin'..." Anna added as she sluggishly followed after Elsa. Her hair was wild and thrown
all about, not even braided, she wore an oversized red flannel shirt which hung dropped past her
arms and barely reached her mid thigh.
"Good morning" Serenity said with her usual joyful tone from in front of the stove, several
different things cooking, all of them sending forth amazing aroma's into the room "Did you sleep
well?"
"I slept fine thank you" Elsa replied happily, almost seeming to catch Serenty's contagious
good nature.
"Muu..." Anna groaned as she dragged her feet across the floor, her eyes set on a small
machine labbled 'Mr. Java' which sat on the counter pouring out a steady steam of vapor
"Don't mind her, she's always like this in the mornings" Elsa said gesturing towards Anna
who slowly made her way to the machine
"I don't mind, my oldest grandson was always a bit like that in the mornings as well" Serenity
replied as she spun around, quickly opening a cabinet which hung high near the stove, she was
surprisignly quick for an elder woman. "And so is Rama..."
At this point a leafeon walked into the kitchen, its eyes half opened as it lazily crawled along.
It's tail was hung low to the ground as though it was about to pass out. Walking behind it, in an
oddly energetic fashion, was Sly the sylveon who happily trotted along.
"You always mention your grandsons..." Elsa began before thinking for a moment, suddenly a
smile stretching across her face "I guess that makes us their aunts?"
"...Fantastic, i'm sixteen and an aunt already" Anna said with dread as she poured the dark
brown liquid from the machine into her mug
"Oh you'll get along just fine with them" Serenity said as she piled rice, meat, and eggs onto
the two plates "Hijo is just about your age"
"How old is he?" Elsa asked as she opened the refrigirator to grab a gallon of milk, oddly
enough labeled with a miltank
"About seventeen" Serenity said with her calm smile as she walked to the table and set down
the two large plates of food
"Oh, wonderful...my nephew is older than me" Anna said as she slowly found her way to the
table
"Hey, say what you want, I rather like the idea of having a family" Elsa said happily as she
practically skipped over to the table and set the milk down
"Oh yes, yes!" Serenity affirmed with joy as Sly sat beside her, the sylveons face almost
forged into a casual smile and vacant stare which was a bit unsettling. "You two will have to
meet my boys, oh they'll be so happy to hear that they have some new family!"
"You haven't told them yet?" Anna asked as she piled scrambled eggs and meat into a large
round flour based piece of food
"No not yet, I want to surprise them for when they come to visit during the holidays" Serenity
replied happily as she turned and headed towards the sink, Sly still remaining where he stood
staring at the two girls, his unsettling smile still present.
"Oh I love it!" Elsa said happily as she clasped her hands together with joy
"...what a surprise" Anna said lifting her brows in exclamation
"Alright you two eat up, you have a big day! I'm going to feed the animals..." Serenity said as
she walked out of the room, Sly remaining in his spot staring intently at something, the girls
unsure what.
"So why exactly are you being such a stick in the mud?" Elsa asked rather suddenly in an
irrate voice as she stared at Anna, her eyes showing her anger.
"I don't know what you mean" Anna replied quickly as she tightly wrapped the burrito of food
"I mean, what the hell was that?" Elsa asked still annoyed, Sly still staring on with his vacant
expression, "I don't know if you realize this or not...but we've been adopted! We have a mom
now, and a family! And a home, not just any home, but this one! With that amazing garden! And
you act like a spoiled brat!"
Anna set the burrito down for a moment and sat in silence. Elsa looked at her sister waiting
for a response, the two sitting in silence for a moment, Sly slowly turning his head to Anna. It
took a moment in the peculiar silence before Anna finally made any movement, a rather
unexpected one at that. As Anna sat there, she slowly began crying.
"...What's wrong?" Elsa managed to ask as she watched her sister burst into tears
"...I don't want to lose it..." Anna managed to say as she cried, Sly watching her as she did so,
its smile still as blank as it had been, "We always lose everything! And I don't want to lose this...I
don't want to lose a family...a home...especially not this one!"
Elsa couldn't manage to think of what to say, she sat in shocked silence staring at her sister.
Anna had always been very proud, to see her in tears was a very strange situation to Elsa. As
Elsa sat frozen, unsure of what to do, Sly slowly lifted his ribbon like extensions towards Anna.
Anna looked through her tears with confusion as two of the 'ribbons' slowly latched onto the back
of her head.
"Sylv" Sly said in a calm joyful tone as he stared into Anna's eyes, his deep turqouise blue
eyes glaring through her red eyes. Sly seemed to transmit a small wavelength of energy into the
girl. For a moment they seemed connected, Sly seemed to almost speak to the girl. He was
comforting, calming, and caring all at once as he stared into the girls eyes.
"I think this one is for real" Elsa said simply as Sly's ribbons slolwy fluttered away from Anna
"...I hope so..." Anna replied as she wiped her tears onto her sleeve "..I hope so."
After Breakfest Front Porch
"So are you both full?" Serenity asked as she patted Sly as he stood beside her along with
Sigilyph and her other eeveelutions. She stood across from Elsa, her Glaceon, and Anna with
her Staraptor.
"Filled to the brim" Elsa replied happily as she straightened her jacket, even in the summer
Sinnoh being quite frigid for the two girls.
"Good, good, you're going to need the energy" Serenity replied
"Do we need to spread more food?" Anna asked as she stretched her arms out
"Well in a sense yes.." Serenity replied as she looked at the two, her old eyes still retaining
much color and a sense of energy about her "Because you're my girls, you'll need to learn all you
can about this garden which i've worked so hard on..."
"Sweet" Anna replied nodding her head
"Not a problem" Elsa added with an adjustment of her berat like hat which covered the top
back of her head
"Are either of you afraid of heights?" Serenity asked rather out of the blue
"Umm...no" Both the girls replied as they turned to each other with confusion
"Good" Serenity said with a cheery beat as she lifted her hand to Sigilyph "Do you think you've
seen this garden rather well?"
"I...think so...?" Elsa responded still a bit confused at the train of thought
"Well...it's certainly not an ordinary Garden, but I think I get the idea" Anna said also a bit
confused
"Heh, oh my garden is by no means a typical garden" Serenity began as she looked at the
front of her house, the small garden before it "I do what I do for the pokemon. I want my lovely
garden to be a haven for them all, a place where they can live free from fear and of danger...A
place just for them. Because of this, my garden has actually been dubbed a Reserve and is
given funding. Of that funding i've been given a few neat items to help me out, but I mostly just
ask for more feed...So you think you know my garden?...You haven't seen anything yet"
As Serenity said this a strange purple light began swirling around, enveloping the group. Both
the girls looked with confusion as they began floating, Elsa quickly locking her knees together as
she looked down at the ground. Anna flapped her hands about in panic as she floated. Serenity
and all of her pokemon stayed as they were, calm and nonchalantly florating, Sigilyph glowing
quite vibrantly.
"So both of you went to school?" Serenity asked in nearly a common conversational manner
"Yes!" Anna yelled back in a bit of panic as she began falling forward, rather than actually
falling she began turning in air.
"Good, so what can you tell me about Altaria?" Serenity asked looking up at the lovely blue
sky, a few clouds drifting around as the group floated higher and higher
"They're bird like, but they're classified as Dragon type pokemon" Elsa replied as she began
twirling sideways
"Good, good" Serenity said as she looked up at a cloud the group approached
"What are we doing?!" Anna yelled out in a bit of panic as she turned to her Staraptor
frantically flapping its wings about trying to fly
"See that?" Serenity asked lifting her small hand and pointing at the cloud which they were
coming quite close to
"Yes" Elsa replied in confusion
"Well, get ready to actually see it" Serenity said happiy as she lifted a small parasol the girls
hadn't noticed. Serenity calmly opened the lace like covering and held it above her head as the
group passed through a small opening in the cloud.
The girls gasped in unison as they looked at the top of the 'cloud'. It was no ordinary cloud at
all, on its surface several twigs, broken eggshels, and small pieces of bone and waste laid upon.
Upon it sat several Altaria and Swablu. The girls watched in amazement as a small gathering of
twigs and cloud fluff housed a hatching egg which slowly cracked, a tiny beak poking through.
"This is an Altaria nest" Serenity said as the purple dissipated from her and she stepped onto
the cloud of Altaria fluff and twigs "You see, when Altaria shed their fluff it has a tendency to
contain just a little bit of its pokemons energy in it. With that, Altaria have learned that it can be
suspended in air...not float per se, but suspend...As such they build large nests out of it, careful
to not put too much weight on it. Too much weight can overstress the fluff and cause it to come
crashing down. So when you're walking you must be very careful to spread out your weight as
much as possible..."
"Wait, we aren't actually going to walk on that are we?" Anna asked as she floated upside
down, her purple hood dangling under her head
"Well if you're to take over my garden, you have to be able to do all the jobs" Serenity replied
with a large smile as Sly, Vama, and Gota all began walking along the fluff filled nest, Anna and
Elsa slowly lowering to it.
"No, no no no!" Anna pleaded as she was spun around, her legs nearing the ground
"Are you sure about this?" Elsa asked as she kept her legs up from the fluff
"Of course" Serenity responded rather certainly "Don't worry, I was scared too when I first
started, but it isn't that hard, just keep your weight as spread as possible"
"This is crazy" Anna said as she lifted her legs up, refusing to step onto the nest.
Elsa took in a deep breath as she lowered her booted foot onto the nest. The fluff
compressed slightly under her foot as she slowly put forth her weight, the purple glow starting to
fade from her. Elsa closed her eyes as she set down her second foot, her feet set apart with her
knees still locked together as she uneasily tried to stand.
"...no way" Anna said in shock as she looked at her, now official, sister standing on the
floating nest of fluff and feathers. Elsa quickly opened her eyes to see that she was indeed
standing atop the nest, far in the sky.
"Holy shi..." Elsa began while trying to keep calm
"Regulate your breathing now, we're rather high up" Serenity interupted
"Woah...heh...look at me! I'm doing it!" Elsa said happily as she took a step forth, followed by
another. She was slowly, but surely, moving forth on the nest. She was careful about each and
every step, and each one worked fine. "Come on Anna!"
"I thought you were the responisble one!" Anna yelled out as Sigiliyph tried to lower her, she
constantly fighting back by throwing her legs about "I'm not going to risk my life to floating
feathers!"
"If you're too scared you can fly with your Staraptor" Serenity said in her nurturing tone as she
slowly walked towards the two "But we'll be up here a while and i'm sure it will get very tired..."
"Then take me down! There's no way, No way that i'll ...!" Anna began before the purple
around her dissipated and she fell down on her posterior, letting out a great scream as she 'fell',
her eyes shut tight. Elsa, Glaceon, and all of Serenity's eevelutions looked at Anna with confused
looks as the girl continued to scream as though she was falling.
"...Anna...you're fine" Elsa said stopping Anna's scream, the girl slowly peeking open one eye.
When she opened her eye she was greeted with the nest, her only reaction was to spring forth
and latch onto Elsa.
"Help me! Don't let me fall! Don't let me fall!" Anna yelled out as she climbed atop Elsa, the
girl struggling under her sisters weight
"Get off of me, Anna!" Elsa yelled out trying to push Anna off, as she struggled she began to
notice her feet sinking into the nest
"We're falling! We're falling!" Anna yelled asshe squeezed Elsa tight, the girl unable to
support her anymore falling backwards. Elsa fell down into the soft collection of feathers, Anna
rolling off of her.
"Will you grow up?!" Elsa said angrily as she rose to her feet
"Oh, oh, so we're only on freaking feathers in the sky, yet I need to grow up for being
cautious?" Anna asked
"With all the trouble you get us into, maybe just once you can trust me" Elsa replied in an
irrate tone as Anna stood up
"Oh yeah, all the 'trouble', the kind that got us to a poke league" Anna yelled back
"Yeah right!" Elsa said sarcastically "All you ever do is take us from bad to worse! And look,
for once we have something good, and you won't stop being a big cry baby about it!"
"Sly" Serenity said simply to the vacant staring pokemon beside her
"All you ever do is cry and complain about the situation! I got us into the pokemon league
leaders press box! I got us into the Leaders Party and Champions Dinner!" Anna yelled out as
the Sylveon calmly walked between the two "I, me, Anna, it's been me carrying you! Stop acting
like you're the one that's gotten us anything good! All you've gotten us is trouble!"
"Are you kidding me?!" Elsa yelled out, Sly sitting down between the two girls "All i've ever
done has been for you! Protecting you! Making sure you survive! All I...ever..."
As Elsa spoke, Sly slowly outstretched two of his ribbons which slowly drifted towards the
girls mouths. The ribbons softly pressed against their lips, silencing them. Sly slowly turned his
head back between the two, his vacant blue eyes very enthralling.
"Girls, calm down" Serenity said as Sly used his ribbons to pat both on the head "You were
trainers, trainers go through much difficulty, it's part of their way. But now you are my babies, so
you must stop worrying. I will keep you safe, I will not put you in any danger I do not think you can
handle. Elsa, you're a very smart girl, you have so much kindness and intelligence in you. But
your sister worries about you because you're so kind, she feels that you will be taken advantage
of in this world. She also feels you worry too much and that because of your worry, you will miss
out on life. Anna, you're such a hearty young woman, I can tell their is much greatness in you.
But your sister does all she can to protect you, you must understand that the reason she worries
is because she worries about your safety. You are sisters, you will have fights, it's part of being
siblings. But you've both been through so much bad, you have forgotten that their is much
goodness in this world. You cannot dwell on the past, what's done is done and cannot be
changed, you must look towards the future and keep moving forward."
Sly quickly retracted his ribbons and began walking to his master. The girls both stood and
stared at each other a moment. They had indeed been through so much, but their life as orphans
was over, they were now truly sisters and the daughters of Serenity, their new life had begun.
"I'm sorry..." Anna managed to say as she looked down at the nest, unable to pull her eyes up
to her sister
"So am I..." Elsa replied
"Well, good. Now let's get to work" Serenity said in her soothing tone as she spun around and
looked over the nesting
"...What exactly are we doing?" Anna asked as she and Elsa began walking forth, following
after their new mother
"Every hatching season, I feel it's neccesary to come and check up on things" Serenity began
as she calmly continued walking, her two girls both taking wide uneasy steps "I like to ensure the
nest is holding up, many nests can collapse under rain or snow, so if there is any damage I try to
fix it. But the main job I try to do is look for runtlings"
"Runtlings?" Elsa asked as Serenity stopped before a rather large altaria, half of its body
buried in the fluff of the nest, yet a resounding chirp like sound could be heard from behind it
"Be careful when you approach the Altaria, don't make very sudden movements, go slow..."
Serenity said as she slowly bowed her head to the bird like dragon, it looked at the woman a
moment before it too lowered its head ever so slightly "Altaria are very kind pokemon, but just like
most, they are extremely protective of their young"
"Miss Serenity..." Elsa said uneasily as the Altaria lifted its long neck, outstretching it
"Oh don't worry about me, I've been coming here for years, i've been there when most of
these hatched" Serenity said as the Altaria lifted itself and outstretched its enourmous white fluffy
wings, underneath was revealed a clutch of four eggs, all cracking open. "Because the eggs are
hatching now, it is our job to check each collection of newborns and look for any runtlings.
They're very small and fragile newborns which are often abandoned by their parent. Nature is
nature, and the weakest have trouble surviving"
As Serenity spoke she rose from the half hatched eggs, one of the newborn swablu's chirping
at her. The girls cautiously made their way around the Altaria who had its eyes glued on them.
Serenity made her way to a second Altaria which was leaning over its newborns, regurgitating
some food into their mouths.
"Aha" Serenity said as she slowly bent her knees and rested on the nest next to the feeding
mother who seemed to ignore her "Look here"
"What is it?" Elsa asked nervously approaching. As she did Serenity suddenly threw her hand
up into the air, the sudden movement caught the girl so off gaurd that she fell back onto the nest,
the cotton like fluff breaking her fall.
"A runtling" Serenity said waving her fingers in a 'come here' motion "Look, see how its
brothers run over it and climb atop it? And do you see how its mother is ignoring it?"
Anna and Elsa both slowly approached the nest to see a small collection of Swablu all
chirping and peeping. They were all of a sickly pink color, their feathers not yet grown in, their
eyes were shut and their little fluff less wings flapping about as they ran against each other.
"That one?" Elsa asked looking at a particularly small newborn which appeared to be trying its
hardest to push itself up, yet all of its siblings quickly pushing it back down
"Yes, yes" Serenity said reaching her hand into the burrow and pulling out the small creature.
Its peeping was weak and not nearly as resounding as its siblings. It struggled about in
Serenity's hand, but it was far too weak to lift itself or do anything other than make its sad peep.
The girls both looked with sad eyes at the abandoned creature, it trying so hard for nothing.
"Well, here you go" Serenity said putting her hand forth with the newborn Swablu
"What?!" Elsa said in complete shock as the kind elderly woman held the baby bird to her
"Well you need to learn what to do" Serenity said as Sly came from behind Elsa and pushed
her arm up with his ribbons "Don't worry, they grow rather fast. It will be a week or two before it
grows its feathers completely, but other than that it develops rather quickly. Feed it finely crushed
gooey, liquidy, food for a few days until it seems strong enough to eat solid foods, only give it a
little bit when it does, make sure it doesn't choke. Keep it warm at all times, and you're good to
go"
"Uhh..but..uhh" Elsa said completely unsure of the situation as Serenity placed the small bird
in her hand and began walking off.
Anna gave Elsa a smug grin before she too began walking, leaving Elsa standing completely
shocked. Elsa simply stood with the peeping bird in her hand. It was her new life, and her new
job now.
Later that Night Serenity's House
"So how's the bird keeping going?" Anna asked as she fell back onto the couch next to Elsa
"I've fed it and i'm keeping it warm" Elsa replied gesturing to the lampstand beside her which
had a makeshift nest of socks, stockings, towels, and shirts. In the middle of the hodge podge
happily slept the small Swablu.
"Well, at least you have a new pokemon" Anna said with a bit of a laugh as she fiddled with
her braids
"Say what you want, I like it" Elsa retorted with a smile
"So...I hate to admit it...but...you were right" Anna said looking up at the wall
"Of course I am...but about what?" Elsa asked looking down at her sister who continued
fiddling with her braids as though nervous or uneasy
"...well...about Miss Serenity...umm...mom" Anna said shifting her eyes about, clearly
ncomfortable, "I mean...she's really really nice...this home is awesome...and...well...I love it..."
Elsa said nothing, she simply gave her sister a smile as she placed her hand on her
shoulder. The two girls were comfortable, they were settled, but most of all they were happy. Yet
as they sat quietly in their contentness they heard the phone ring.
"Should we answer that?" Elsa asked looking at the phone "Miss Serenity...mom... is in the
shower..."
"Just let the machine get it" Anna replied sitting up
"Hey Grandma!" A very familiar voice said suddenly as the machine beeped, both of the girls
quickly shot their heads into the direction of the phone as it carried on "It's me..."
"Hey!" Elsa yelled out as she and Anna both leapt up, they bumped into each other, stumbling
as they tried to move forward. As they did, Serenity calmly walked forth from the other room and
grabbed ahold of the phone
"Hello hijo" Serenity said happily as she held the phone to her ear, she looked down at the
girls who were both on the floor looking up at her. Both the girls stared in utter surprise as
Serenity listened to her grandson, the grandson that happened to have a very familiar voice. "Oh
i'm glad to hear that. And how's Lucario?...that's good, have you heard from your cousin?... "
"Uhh..." Anna said with a dropped jaw as she tried to say something
"...That's good..." Sernity continued as Sly walked to her side, the sylveon looking at the girls
with its head tilted ever so slightly "Things have been absolutely great here...oh have I got a
surprise for you...No I can't tell you, it has to be a surprise...Well thank you for calling, i'm glad to
hear everything is going well, stay healthy and stay safe...alright, goodbye"
"...Mom..." Elsa said looking up at Serenity as the woman put the phone back into its stand
"Was that your grandson...?"
"Oh yes, that was my baby" Serenity replied looking forth, her youthful eyes looking at the two
"I can't wait until you meet him, you'll get along so well. His name is Raian..."
