Me: Okay, since school is starting in a couple days, I just wanted to warn you that I won't be updating often because of school and other stuff. Like the only time I can use the computer is on Saturday night. *sad face*
Drew: Excuses, excuses. You never learn, do you?
Me: What are you talking about? It's true. Anyways, I do learn.
Drew: Oh yeah?
Me: Yeah. For example, I learn that a certain green-haired guy can be really rude, mean, and considerate most of the time.
Drew: Oh... HEY! Who are you to talk?
May: Oh, shut up Drew. Just don't expect a lot of update until vacations, readers. The author is very sorry, okay? We won't give her any chocolate, so don't worry.
Me: *whimper*
Solidad: Airgirl13 does not own anything! If she did, she wouldn't be writing fanfics now, would she?
Me: Yeah, I'd be living in a house made of chocolate, and I'd take baths in chocolate, and eat chocolate for every meal, and...
May: Read and review please!

May's POV
I whipped myself around and saw Drew standing right behind me. Brianna was staring at him with her hands clasped in front of her, her eyes sparkling.
"Hi, Drew! I knew you would make it to this event, especially for a special someone, here." Solidad said. She gave a secret wink at Drew which I caught easily, who had a slight blush on his cheeks.
"Shut up, Solidad. I just came here for the battle at the reunion. Of course, May obviously doesn't know what she's doing. She knows she's going to lose, so why bother coming at all?"
My fists curled up as I tried to keep from letting my anger out at him. I closed my eyes for a couple seconds and let out a breath. "Hello to you too, Grasshead."
Drew looked surprised that I didn't start shouting, but smirked and flipped his hair. "You're just jealous, August."
I felt my nails dig into my palm as I grinded my teeth. I stepped forward to strangle him but Brianna did before me.
"Oh, Mr. Drew, your green luscious locks are gorgeous! They have such a brilliant shine!" Brianna cooed.
I rolled my eyes. I guess that's just a fangirl thing.
"Thanks. See, she knows what great and what isn't." Drew said.
Brianna squealed as I opened my mouth to retort but a something red was gently put in my face. It smelled really sweet and elegant. I blushed as I took the rose from Drew.
"Save it for the battle, September." Then he gave us a wave and walked away. "See ya around, Solidad. You too, Brianna."
"Bye, Mr. Drew!" Brianna sighed. "May, you're so lucky that you're he acknowledges you. He even gave you a rose!"
"They're for Beautifly, Brianna. He'd never give it to me." I said as I tucked the beautiful rose in my fanny pack.
Solidad chuckled. "Sure, he wouldn't."
I turned around to give her a glare. It was true; Drew didn't even like me. Sure, he had good looks and skills, but he wouldn't fall for someone bland, boring, and ordinary like me. Wait, did I just agree with him that I wasn't a good coordinator? Curse you, Drew! Why was he so confusing? Ugh. My head hurts just from thinking about the jerk.
"Hey, Brianna, we have to get going now. Both of us are looking forward to our battle though." Solidad said.
"Okay, I'll see you guys later!" Brianna waved as she left.
Solidad and I went back to our rooms and put away our purchases. I was determined to have fun at the reunion, even with Drew mocking or not. He could be sweet at times, but he could also be a jerk most of the time.
"Solidad, I'm going to go train my Pokemon, okay?" I said. As I headed to the door a loud growl filled the room. I looked down at my stomache.
"Why don't you go get lunch first? You haven't had breakfast today and I'm surprised that you haven't noticed yet." Solidad said as she laughed.
"Okay, I'll eat first. I can't wait to eat some noodles now!" I cried. "See you later, Solidad."
I ran out the down and back down to the cafeteria. After I paid for my noodles I headed towards a table but found none that was available. I sighed and scanned the room for an open seat, at least, when I saw a bluenette and a red-head sitting at a table for three. I excitedly ran over to them, careful to prevent my delicious noodles from spilling.
"Dawn! Zoey! Hi guys!"
Both of them swiveled their heads my way and the bluenette smiled. "May! Good to see you! I knew we'd bump into each other again soon."
"Me too. Nice to see you too, Zoey." I said. "Can I take this seat?"
"Sure." Zoey said. She was wearing a marron long sleeve, and orange vest, and blue jeans. Her glasses were atop her head and her deep red eyes showed friendliness and confidence. In her hands was a sub sandwich, which was half-eaten.
Dawn was holding a taco in one hand and a pop in the other. She was wearing her usual cap, pink scarf, black and pink minidress, and pink go-go boots. Her yellow clips were in there usual place on the sides of her head, holding her dark-blue hair which cascaded down to her back.
I sat down and started eating my noodles quickly. I slurped them up; they were soooooooooo good! Not as good as the battle noodles in Kanto, but good just the same.
Dawn gave me a look like I grew antennas and a beard while Zoey had her hand over her mouth, trying to hide her chuckle. I finished the noodles in my mouth and asked, "What, guys?"
"Uh, nothing. Just slow down or you'll choke." Zoey replied.
I nodded and continued eating. I barely slowed down, but I was eager to get training. After I finished, I asked them if Kenny and Nando were here. They said they hadn't seen them yet, but they probably were attending. I said my good-byes and headed outside. It was sunny, and a gentle breeze drifted through the air. I walked around, searching for a good training spot and settled on a small field with wild roses.
Roses…Drew certainly gave me a lot of roses during these past few years. He must think Beautifly is really worthy of him, I thought. I wonder why he keeps mocking me though. I try my best but I guess it's just not enough. But this time, I'm going to win. I've trained really hard after my loss at the Grande Festival, and nothing's going to stop me now.
"Come on out, guys!" I reached into my green fanny pack and tossed my Pokeballs in the air. Each one opened, revealing my Pokemon, one by one.
First off was Blaziken, who emerged from a spiral of fire. Wartortle came out and released sparkling water-drops into the air while Beautifly spun in the air and released some sunrays. Glaceon appeared from an ice cocoon, gracefully landing on its four legs. Venasaur came out in a storm of petals while Munchlax made its way out of a mystical green light. It immediately went to search for food.
"Wait… where's Skitty?" May started to panic but sighted the pink cat in the corner, chasing its own tail in circles. "Oh, there you are."
"Okay, guys. There's a reunion tomorrow and we're going to battle a lot of coordinators like Dawn, Zoey, Solidad, Harley, and of course that idiot Drew."May told her Pokemon. "We have to do our best, so we're going to train today, and possibly tomorrow morning too."
May stepped back from her Pokemon team to the nearby roses. "So come on guys, let's do it!"
All of her Pokemon nodded and assumed their positions.
"Glaceon, Shadow Ball, and then use Blizzard! Blaziken use Fire Spin at the sky and leap through it! Then Mega Kick at Venasaur. Venasaur, charge for Solarbeam and release when I give you the signal, and then-"
My Pokemon immediately froze when I stopped giving them commands. "Skitty, where are you?"
I searched the nearby trees and bushes but it was nowhere to be found. "I swear, you were here just now!"
I heard a rustle next to the shrub near Venasaur so I ordered it to use vine whip. The vines parted the shrubs to reveal Skitty dodging it, then and racing off in the other direction.
"Everybody, stay here! I'll go get Skitty!" I commanded. As I chased after the hyper-active Pokemon, I thought about déjà vu. This happened to me in Pacifidlog Town, where Skitty chased after an Aipom and was found in the hands of Joshua, another great coordinator and friend. As I called for Skitty, I wonder if Joshua and his girlfriend Erica where attending the reunion. It would be nice to meet them again.
"Come on, Skitty! You have to come back so we can train!" I yelled. I saw the pink fuzzball leap through a bush so I followed. We had come across and riverbank. The sun shining against the water sparkled very prettily.
"Skitty! Where are-"
"May, is that you?" A voice called out of nowhere.
I turned around and saw a boy my age standing right behind me. He had slightly long brown hair that matched his brown eyes. He was wearing a pale sunshine yellow t-shirt, brown cargo pants, an orange sweatshirt, and black sneakers. Next to him was a huge gray Pokemon with yellow accents and white gloves. In his hands was Skitty, who was happily purring softly.
"Sorry, uh, I don't think we've met… wait, Timmy?" I realized slowly, my eyes widening.
He nodded. "Yeah, I'm Timmy. Remember me, from Verdanturf Town? You and you're friends helped my mom realize that Pokemon weren't bad! We also competed against each other at the contest!"
"Oh… I remember now! Sorry about the misunderstanding, Timmy. I guess I have a lot on my mind right now. Is that a Dusknoir you have there?" I sweat-dropped and put my hand on the back of my head. Timmy had grown taller and his hair was longer, so he looked quite different.
Timmy turned to the Pokemon by his side. "Yeah, this is my Dusknoir. I evolved it from the Dusclops you saw back in Hoenn. I was training it when your Skitty came along. It looked familiar, so I decided to keep an eye on it."
Skitty jumped from his arms and bounced back to me, swinging his tail back and forth.
"Thanks, Timmy. This isn't the first time it has run off. So, you're here for the reunion, right?"
"Yeah. I can't wait to battle the other coordinators there! I want to battle you again, too. I've trained a lot after you and you're friends left and I've won some ribbons as well." Timmy said.
"Well, I've got to get going. I left my other Pokemon alone to go find Skitty so I have to go back. Maybe we could meet for lunch tomorrow or something. Then we can catch up on things and hang out, you know." I said.
"Sure, May. I'll see around then." Timmy waved.
"Bye! Catch you later." I turned around and motioned Skitty to follow. I guess it wasn't an entirely bad thing that Skitty ran off. Now, to go back and have my Pokemon have a great training session. As I was thinking, Skitty ran off before me. I groaned.
"Skitty, get back here! Honestly, don't you ever get tired?"
