Jansey Brook's P.O.V
The storm last night was a terror, it so was loud and fierce I couldn't even sleep last night without flinching every five minutes. I knew for sure Jin wouldn't be able to arrive here with that hell of a storm, I just hope he's okay though. I didn't want to think about what might have happened to Jin, so I shrugged the thought off and got out of bed leaving my hotel room for breakfast.
The last second I closed the door behind me, I felt a pair of small talons gripping my head; I also felt soft, poofy wings brush against my scalp.
"Oh, good morning to you too Swablu."
I greeted the cute and friendly bundle of cotton who was in the form of a small bird, my Swablu replied to me cheerfully.
"Bleeeeu!" he chirped.
I laughed and made our down the hallway; to the elevator that would take us to the breakfast area. As we went down the elevator I closed my eyes and sighed.
"I know Jin, he is strong and independent, and takes great care of his Pokémon. He's not going to let a single storm get in his way."
I smiled; Swablu and I made it out the elevator two minutes later.
Sakurai Jin's P.O.V
I woke up the next morning to the sound of strange chirping; which I thought was a Kricketune. I yawned and adjusted my glasses before looking around the mysterious room some more.
I was feeling very refreshed; just like the actual Pokémon attack and how Pokémon felt after their check up with Nurse Joy at the Pokémon Center.
Of course I still felt slightly feverish but my headache was gone, I was thankful that the throbbing in my head had finally vanquished itself. My body stopped sweating and shivering too and my throat was functioning normally. However I still had a chill and felt very cold even with the robe and the blanket. I noticed that the heater (which was on all night) was turned off, therefore making the room itself like the Cold Storage in Unova.
Ugh—and it was in the middle of fall too, what's going to happen when winter comes along? Yeah I never liked the cold but hey, I never complain about it.
I simply just endure it until I can get warm.
Deciding I have been on my futon long enough I finally clipped on my fanny pack, stood up slowly, slid open the sliding door, and walked out of the room releasing another long yawn as I did so. As soon as I closed the door behind me, a powerful realization hits me hard in the chest and skull.
Holy crap! Was even in Kalos anymore?!
I saw a small row of rooms with sliding doors painted in red and white patterns; I was also standing in the middle of some hallway too. This hallway didn't make me feel like I was still in the Pokémon World, but I thought nothing of it.
I walked down the hallway eventually coming across a patio to which there was a beautiful yet unfamiliar scenery.
It definitely didn't have a Pokémon atmosphere.
There was a dirt brown ground that obviously meant to be some sort of path, the rest of the ground was completely green with grass. There was also an infestation of tall bamboo almost surrounding the entire area I was in, hell there was so much bamboo that not even an army of Pancham and Pangoro will be able to devour this forest.
It was amazing to look at but at this moment I was lost in thought, a thought asking me if I was still on Pokearth over and over again. My mind was struggling to come up with excuses for what I was seeing.
"Maybe it's some rare and unique area of Kalos that trainers like me have never heard about? And I'm the first trainer to discover it?
I have heard of rumors about the Mystery Zone, but that was just a bunch of absurd nonsense. I knew for a fact that there was no way this place was a mystery, it had to have some answers to it; some meaning.
I slowly strolled down to the patio, and then turned around leaning on a wooden rail with both arms crossed and chin resting on arms. I let out a sigh and shivered, even though it was morning, the cloudy sky combined with the thick fog gave it a night time feeling. I had forgotten how cold it was on the outside just like the inside.
"Hey! You there!"
I immediately jumped up and my heart may have skipped a beat or two, one moment I was slowly adjusting to the new environment of whatever this place was; and then the next moment I'm startled to death by the sound of a little girl. Her voice was childish and high pitch, just like how any other little girl would sound. With my eyes wide open I spun around quickly trying to locate the source of the voice.
"I'm down here silly!" The little female voice cried out playfully.
I listened to her and looked down, "What the?" I thought to myself.
Standing in front of me with her small arms behind her back was indeed a cheerful little girl; she was up to my chest at height. The little girl has dark, red eyes and black, shoulder length hair. She is dressed in a frilly, pink nightgown and is wearing a carrot necklace.
But the number one thing that stood out the most and made me speechless was her white, fluffy rabbit ears and her cotton ball tail.
I was only shocked for a little longer before whispering to myself, "okay—maybe it's just a preschooler female attempting to cosplay as a Buneary."
"Buneary, what in the world is a Buneary?" She suddenly asks me out of curiosity.
At this point I nearly shit myself; I felt like my mind was going to crash on me. Oh my fucking Arceus, this little girl just heard me! And I was so quiet too!
"Uh-uh-uh-um…"
I was stammering like I have been hit in the face with Confuse Ray. After a couple seconds I finally manage to let out whatever sentences I was trying to find.
"Um-uh—can I help you?"
I ended up getting a playful giggle and a wide grin in return from the small female cosplayer.
"Hehehe! You're funnier than I thought! I like you already!"
That was a little out of the blue.
And then she calmed down a bit finishing her sentence.
"There's breakfast ready for you inside, here I'll take you there!"
I could see and hear her open a sliding door behind her.
Before I could ask her anymore questions, the little rabbit dressed girl grabs my right wrist firmly with her left hand and starts pulling me into a room; I was being taken in by surprised
"H-hey! Wait a minute! S-slow down!" I exclaimed while trying to maintain my balance and keep up with the little girl. She yanked me into the room very roughly and I nearly stumbled over.
"What strength!" I mentally exclaimed. This little girl pulled me in like I was her Substitute Doll or something.
The room she pulled me into was slightly wider than the one I was sleeping in; there in front of me were one of those table blankets that were very popular and expensive in Unova. There were tea cups with freshly pour tea along with the teapot itself, and fresh hot food inside the bowls with chopsticks on top. I can see steam coming out of the teacups and bowls.
Eventually she lets go of my wrist and slides the door behind us close, then she runs in front of me beaming.
"Come on, sit down! Sit! Sit! Sit!"
Wow for the Luvdisc of Pichu she was awfully bossy; very impatient too!
I cautiously walked around the little, hyperactive girl and then got on my bottom slowly sliding myself under the table blanket. Wow! It was so warm under there, like if I were to put my Charizard under my bed. That sudden warmth definitely snapped the cold out of me and that chill I had grew weaker.
After getting really comfortable I faced the front. Right in front of me was that same young woman from last night; Eirin, yeah her name was Yagokoro Eirin.
"Good Morning Sakurai-senpai. Well you sure got up early today, and you definitely look a lot better than last night."
She greeted me with the same warm smile on her face she had yesterday, I couldn't help but copy her smile because I was feeling happy.
"Good Morning, Yagokoro-sama." I replied. Suddenly another female voice joins the party and I turned around to see who it was.
"Why did you call my master Yagokoro-sama? Eirin-sama only needs one servant and that's it!"
That loud protest came from this young preteen girl. She has red eyes which were lighter than the smaller girl's, and long, light-purple hair. The preteen female is dressed in a white shirt with a red necktie; there is a clip on her necktie in the shape of a carrot; similar to the necklace the smaller girl had. Finally she has long rabbit ears which were vastly different from the smaller girl's, the preteen female's ears slightly resembled Lopunny's except they were rumpled and sticking straight up into the air; her ears were also white and pink instead of cream colored.
"One servant?! Eirin-sama has both of us and you know it!" The smaller girl who disagreed with the preteen girl shouted.
Eirin had a small look of embarrassment on her face and said, "Well I must agree with Reisen that calling me mistress like that was a little bit out of the blue."
Wait a minute that's what Sama means in English?! I mean all this time I thought it meant respect or gratitude, one of the friends (besides Jansey) told me that during my travels in the Unova region; I will get that little liar back later on.
I was beginning to feel embarrassed myself; even a little bad. So I took the time to speak up.
"I'm sorry; I didn't know what to call you at the time because I was really grateful last night for what you did for me. I didn't want to just call you something rude so I…"
I was suddenly cut off by the female preteen.
"I understand what you mean mister, but wouldn't it be simple and gratefully enough if you just called her Eirin-chan?"
Eirin chuckles and added, "That would be nice, and I can call you Jin-kun if you like. I think it sounds pleasant."
Her smile never leaving her face as she spoke to me.
I was still quite red for using a Japanese word incorrectly, but I managed to nod and reply to her.
"Um, yeah sure—I don't mind you calling me that Eirin-chan."
Yeah it was definitely more appropriate calling her Chan than calling her Sama.
I sighed and took hold of my chopsticks getting ready to eat; I looked down at my bowl to see that it was a Beef Bowl. Those were really good and I had one almost every day in Unova.
Before I chose to eat though, I decided to ask the girls more questions; especially the ones that were left unanswered last night.
"So um—Buneary and Lopunny cosplayers, I haven't gotten your names yet. Do you think you ca-"
Again I was cut off by the female preteen, this was really getting under my skin.
"Before you speak any further my name is Reisen Udongein Inaba, and the smaller girl next to you is Tewi Inaba. Calling us that would sure sounds better that calling us unnecessary names like earlier."
Well that was rather harsh! And it certainly didn't help when the smaller girl now known as Tewi sided with her.
"She's right you silly bum! Call us by our real names!"
I had to speak up to that.
"Listen girls, I had no hard feelings at all. But when I saw you with ears and a tail, I only assumed you were dressing up that's all."
The preteen female now known as Reisen had look of shock on her face, she remained silent for a few seconds before finally replying.
"I'm sorry, dr-dressing u-u-upth~!"
Reisen covers her mouth with her left hand and suddenly breaks out giggling, eventually it was too much for her to handle and she explodes with laughter. She was laughing so hard I thought she was possessed by a Gastly. Still laughing uncontrollably, her face was now flat onto the table and she wraps her arms around her stomach; clutching it tightly.
Everyone else in the room began to feel awkward with the purple hair preteen girl still laughing her ass off.
She finally calms down after a moment longer and brings her face back up; panting hard and teary eyed.
"I-I-I'm sorry, I had no idea you were this funny." Reisen gasped with laughter still in her voice.
She took a deep breath ensuring herself that she will actually keep a straight face this time and continued talking.
"These rabbit ears Tewi-chan and I have, they're real and I'm not lying. I could prove it to you if you like."
It took a few seconds to respond for I had been chowing down on my beef bowl the entire time Reisen was laughing; I did paid attention to what she told me though.
After I swallowed the remains of seasoned vegetables, saucy beef strips, and gummy rice, I cleared my throat and finally replied.
"All right then, I want to you to lean towards me so I can touch your ears." I ordered Reisen with confidence in my voice, there was no way these girls were going to fool me.
"Ooh ooh! Can you touch mines too afterwards Jin-kun? Can you?!" Tewi eagerly asked me. She was being impatient as ever, and I couldn't believe she was willing to go along with my request.
"All right I will get to you later, Reisen-san if you may."
And Reisen who was sitting at the side of the table blanket places her hands onto the table and pushes herself towards me with her body dragging on the hard surface.
I thought nothing of it, but I got a glance of her purple skirt dragging on the table with her body. At least I didn't see her panties; which would probably scar me for life if I did.
As soon as she was close enough for me to touch, I reached out both my hands and gently grasped her ears.
I heard a fast, loud squeak from Reisen when my hands were wrapped around them; it startled me but only for a second. I slowly ran my palms all the way up to the tip and then down; squeezing gently. Her ears were smooth and soft; a little silky too.
I was really admiring these textures that were Reisen's ears but still I refused to believe they were real.
As I slowly rubbed Reisen's ears some more, I stretch myself up a little to get a glimpse of her head. She does not appear to be wearing any sort of head band. Then I jerked her ears upwards really light getting another squeal of surprise from the long, purple hair girl. Of course I wasn't trying to hurt her in any ways possible, but I wanted to see if her ears were individual accessories that she clipped on or if she was wearing a wig.
Nope, her ears remain attached and Reisen made yet another brief squeal; if I were to listen closely I think this girl really likes it when I do that.
My denial was slowly giving up on me, I was actually beginning to feel like I really was pulling on her ears; real ears, like the ones you would see every day on trainers and certain Pokémon.
I felt a small knot in my stomach because I was starting to believe Reisen; that those rabbit ears of hers were real. As my mind struggled taking in this information I suddenly felt a tug on my shoulder sleeve.
"Come one Jinny! Touch my ears already!"
Sure enough that loud demand came from Tewi; sitting on the left side next to me being as impatient as ever.
And really? Jinny, she calls me Jinny but I can't call her Buneary? That is not fair!
I sighed trying to calm my mind down and let Reisen's ears go shortly afterwards.
"Oh come on that was only twenty seconds Jin-san!" Reisen pouted. Yep she really did love it when I touched her ears.
"Don't be greedy Udonge-chan! That was exactly fifty seconds!" Tewi barked back disagreeing with Reisen.
I twisted my body a bit until my upper half was in front of Tewi's body, since she was sitting close to me she didn't have to lean. I immediately grabbed the two floppy appendages that were on the little girl's head and massage them.
I rubbed them in between my hands for several seconds before switching to scrubbing them. Just like Reisen, Tewi was really getting enjoyment from my hands, the little hums and slight moans she made gave me a thought that she was going to get—
"No, no no no no NO!" I mentally screamed to myself, there was no way my pure innocent mind was going to get into that. I'm not letting my mind and body go there; that's just—too far!
I didn't want these thoughts to get the best of me, so five more seconds later I immediately let go of Tewi's ears. I got a disappointed huff from the little girl and she gave me a pouty face.
Eirin must have saw that my face was still in disbelief so she turned her head towards Reisen and gave voice to her.
"It doesn't look like he is convinced."
Then I heard Reisen make an impatient breath, she stood up onto her feet slamming her palms onto the table as she did so.
I was scared by the sound of the slam and spun around quickly towards Reisen's direction.
"Alright mister, you think I am lying to you! Let's see if you believe us afterwards after you lose against me in a Danmaku Match!"
Danmaku? What in the world was she saying?
"Um, I think you mean a Pokémon Battle. We're still here on Kalos you know."
Yeah, call me stupid for saying that even though I just touched the girl's rabbit ears.
Reisen scowls at me like whatever I said to her stunned her body, and then she made another impatient breath. She looked like she was about to burst with annoyance. With her eyes closed and her right hand pinching the bridge of her nose, I felt a sudden dread come over me; like something dangerous was going to happen.
I couldn't help but also notice Tewi opening the sliding door for whatever reason.
And then she did something so scary and—strange, it made me feel like I was still dreaming.
Her right hand folds into the shape of a gun and points itself towards the dirt ground outside the patio. Her hand flies upwards in a quick jerk and out came—a bullet.
Yes a bullet; not Bullet Seed or Punch, just a normal bullet you would all see and find in all guns.
The bullet magically flew out of Reisen's fingers really fast, the agility almost matched a Sucker Punch attack and rings of purple, red esp came out from behind. The bullet smacks the ground with astonishing power leaving a short, loud explosion behind. There was a miniature, deep hole imprinted into the dirt ground with small traces of smoke rising.
"Wh-wh-what are—Was is…"
Alright! I definitely wasn't in Kalos anymore, fuck I wasn't even on Pokearth anymore! I found myself stammering again, I couldn't believe what I just saw. It had to be some sort of joke, but it just looked too realistic; especially coming from a human girl with animal parts.
The long purple hair girl sighs and gets back onto her knees saying, "Eirin-sama, tell him where he is already; please?"
Eirin had that same look of embarrassment on her face from earlier and then she begins to explain. It definitely saved me the trouble of asking her myself.
"I was right when I said you were an outsider, Jin-kun you are not in your outside world anymore. The place you mentioned about, was it Kay-los, Kai-lost, Kee-loose?"
"It's Kalos," I corrected her.
"Yes Kalos," She said the name correctly this time.
"Well my point is you are not in the world you would normally be right now, you are in Gensokyo. A mythical place filled with creatures like fairies, youkai, gods, and more. This area of Gensokyo which is our home and also where you are now is called Eientei. I and my fellow employees are not human, Tewi over here is a youkai rabbit, Reisen is a moon rabbit, and I am a lunarian."
The white haired nurse claps her hand together and finishes with a smile.
Meanwhile I just sat there dumbfounded trying to speculate what Eirin just told me.
So basically my Pokémon and I are in some magical world that is not part of the Pokearth, we are currently at this "Eientei" place which was some sort of region or something, and finally there are no Pokémon in this Gensokyo place; instead they're strange creatures with names I totally do not recognize, three of them being in this room right now.
My silent theorizing continues for about a few moments longer before another question came up.
"So how did I get here then? Like how did I, no wait my Pokémon and I end up in this Gensokyo world in the first place?"
I had completely forgotten I had my Pokémon with me; it will only be a matter of time before they get the same reaction as me once I let them out of their Pokeballs.
"…Well…" Eirin was looking for a reply to answer my question but seemed to be having trouble.
To Eirin's convenience Tewi speaks up, "You see, here's what happened."
*Flashback*
Tewi Inaba's P.O.V
"Udonge-chan, is there a reason why we're selling medicine this early in the morning?" I questioned with a slightly annoyed tone in my voice.
It was one of those mornings that were very foggy and ice cold whenever it's early, it was always like this and while the fog wasn't really a big deal; I never got used to the cold. Also I do wake up early but never this early, this was ridiculous! I was really sleepy and yet I'm out here with my best friend instead of cuddling myself under the blankets on my bed!
"Because Eirin-sama told us to, if you don't want to get us in trouble like you did last time you really shouldn't complain."
Udonge-chan was being awfully stern to me but I could care less, I let out a loud yawn and rubbed my watery eyes of sleep. I had to put down the medium size crate of medicine, potions, and elixirs I was holding in order to do so.
"Tewi-chan be careful with those!" Udonge-chan exclaimed.
I was getting kind of fed up with Udonge-chan overacting like this but still I did my best to ignore it.
We walked through the Bamboo Forest of Lost some more, taking a few paths, detours and various routes.
It has been about ten minutes and my arms were getting sore from carrying my crate so we took breaks in between, I was thankful Udonge-chan had mercy on me for once. We discussed things to each other, like random stuff about the Human Village and future plans for our next Moon Festival.
We continued walking afterwards not talking much because we were busy with the crate of things.
It was at this point that I had no idea where Eirin-sama was even sending us too sell these medicines. We were walking for a half hour already and I had no clue where we were even going.
"Um—Udonge-chan?" I asked.
"We're here Tewi-chan." She replied back.
It appears that she already answered my question ahead of time because before I knew it, we were at the shore of the Misty Lake.
"Here?" I asked baffled, usually we would sell medicine to the humans at the village, but what suddenly made Eirin-sama to tell us to sell them here; at the Misty Lake. Obviously there weren't going to be any fairies this early in the morning. And even if they were, I doubt they would be interested in buying Eirin-sama's products anyways, and since when do fairies even carry around yen with them?
"Yep here, Eirin-sama didn't tell me why but that's where we're supposed to be."
Udonge-chan managed to free one of her arms for a second before briefly pointing to a random area.
"Why don't you start selling over there and I'll start selling over here."
It sounded reasonable even though there we were currently the only two residents here, I started trotting my way towards a large rock I eventually found through the fog. I sat down on the rock and placed the crate down granting myself another break.
"Whew," I sighed to myself and waited for something to happen.
Though it very early in the morning that didn't mean it was quiet, through my powerful floppy rabbit ears I heard all sorts of soothing noises. Cicadas chirping, frogs croaking, I think I could even hear some of the rabbits running about.
I closed my eyes and a took a calm breath, the air was really fresh especially when it was this early. The air I breathe in at the Misty Lake always calms my nerves and clears my mind.
I smiled, yeah it was cold and there was only Udonge-chan and I at the moment; but that didn't mean I was board. I find the Misty Lake to be my favorite part of Gensokyo because it's relaxing and there's always something going on.
When my eyes were open again I took another breath and saw it condensed into water as I exhaled, it's kind of like breathing fog out of your mouth except it's slightly wetter. I almost forgot how cold I was and I starting to rub my arms to warm them with friction.
"I wonder how Udonge-chan is doing." I wondered to myself before taking another breath and getting the same sight.
"Tewi-chan!"
Suddenly I heard my name call out loudly and abruptly which brought me to my feet.
"That was Udonge-chan!" I rend the air before picking up the crate and taking off running. With the crate in my hands, I found it harder to run and resorted to skipping.
"Udonge-chan, what is it?!"
I saw her and was almost there as I called out to her, she sounded like she was having an emergency.
I eventually got to where Udonge-chan was and squatted next to her with the crate on the ground, in my view was something indescribably strange.
"Oh my god." I gasped aloud.
In my sight was a young teenage boy laying on his back. He had squared glasses and short black hair, he looked to be as tall as Eirin-sama and had clothes that I didn't recognize. He also had some kind of pouch wrapped around his waist and a bag strapped to his back.
An outsider! And he was human too!
But the thing that stood out to him most were the little , red and white electronic balls that were attached to the leathery strap of the pouch. They definitely don't have those things here in Gensokyo and I didn't think the outside world had them either.
"Is he still alive?" I asked; my inquiry had risen in tone from concern.
"I don't know, I found him floating like that while I was waiting for a customer. I dragged him out of the water and called you."
Reisen looked panicked; like she wasn't prepared for situations like these. I was however, and went into fast thinking action to save the boy's life.
"Well we're not going to sit here and wait, we're going to help him! Udonge-chan I want you to apply pressure on his stomach and I'll get his clothes off!"
He was soaked to the brim, his clothes and bags had darkened greatly in color due to the water. From common sense, I knew getting wet in temperature like this will be fatal for anyone.
"What?! Tewi-chan have you gone insane!"
That was Reisen's response and she grew red. I felt frustration building in my stomach.
"This is no time to be embarrass right now! For God's Sakes, this is a life or death situation we're dealing with!"
I had already started sliding his cold, soaked pants and boxers off by the time I finished yelling, Udonge-chan can be so immature sometimes.
"Well don't just sit there on your knees! Do it! Give him a few breaths with your mouth!" I shouted as I proceeded to doff off his shoes and socks which were also soaked and freezing cold.
Meanwhile Udonge-chan who was really lost slowly stacked her hands together and placed them onto the human boy's stomach. When she finally stopped thinking about nasty thoughts and got to the real situation, she reluctantly connects her mouth with his. Her eyes were squeeze shut but still she exhales; sending oxygen inside the boy's body. She also presses down firmly onto his stomach; trying to get the motionless boy to throw up the water.
She continues to repeat this at decent pace while I went for the upper body clothing which had two layers. One of them had a zipper which I unzipped with ease and got that off, then I gripped onto his sopping T-shirt and peeled it off his body harshly.
The wet shirt clung to him making it hard for me to take off, but I managed to remove the thing off his body completely.
Lastly without breaking them I removed both bags from his waist and back.
To my pleasure, I eventually heard coughing and slight gags coming from the boy, it meant Udonge-chan had successfully got the water out of his system. The water erupted out of his mouth and Reisen quickly turned the boy's head to the side letting the it spill onto the ground so he didn't choke.
I saw his body tremble brutally but ten seconds later he was completely still again.
I was scared at first but sighed in relief when I saw that he was still breathing, he's was unconscious.
"This boy needs to get warm immediately, Udonge-chan we're bringing him to Eientei."
I addressed to her urgently only to get another inconvenient protest from her.
"Tewi-chan are you crazy?! We can't just bring any random human or other creatures we come across back to Eientei, outsider or no outsider we need to focus on why we really came here!"
This tall purple hair chick was driving me insane!
"And we're certainly not going to let him lay out here and die! Why do you think Eirin-sama ran Eientei as a hospital anyways?!"
"Tewi-chan…" She attempted to protest again but I cut her off this time.
"We're taking him with us whether you want to or not, we will come back for his clothes, bags, and the crates later!"
I grabbed his ankles with both hands and lifted his lower half off the ground; his skin was dry ice that nibbled through my hand with its chills. But I endured it and gave Udonge-chan a stern look telling her to help me.
Udonge-chan lets out a sigh of defeat finally giving in to me and grabbed him from underneath his pits, wrapping her arms around his chest. She lifted his upper half off the ground and we took off running, we made our way back to Eientei as fast as we could not caring about the nude body we were carrying.
Surprisingly he was lighter than the crate I carried earlier, well it was kind of obvious because Udonge-chan was helping me out. With both of us running and carrying him, we found ourselves back to the mansion in less then five minutes. Udonge-chan freed one hand and flung open the entry door, we rushed in through the foyer making a few turns in some hallways.
Eventually we came up to the front desk where Eirin-sama was looking at a few papers with information on it.
"Eirin-sama!" I cried out to her urgently.
She flinched a little as I took her by surprise and gave us our attention; she immediately noticed the body we were carrying. At first she grew a little red, but that expression went away when I started off telling her.
"He's alive, but he's unconscious. His body is very cold and wet, plus his clothes were soaked."
Eirin seemed to have understood what I said; she didn't even asked about the crates and instead told us calmly.
"Tewi, Reisen. Bring him closer to me."
Udonge-chan and I rotated and switched spots, she was now in front of the desk with one hand cradling the boy's head and the other pushing his back while I was standing in the far back of her, Eirin-sama, and her desk. I had the boy's feet resting on my shoulders.
I saw Eirin-sama lean over, placing her right hand onto cold boy's head.
"He's burning up." Eirin-sama said with dismay. She stood up straight again with a worried look on her face before doing some fast thinking.
"Tewi, Reisen. I'll get a room ready for this human; bring him here this way please."
"Yes, right away Eirin-sama." Udonge-chan and I replied in unison.
We saw Eirin-sama walk around her desk. She opens a sliding door and walks inside; we immediately followed her with the unconscious human still in our hands. We were thankful Eirin-sama was power walking so we didn't have to run anymore.
After a moment longer of fast walking through hallways we stumbled across a random guest room, Eirin-sama flung open the sliding door and we all went into the room. We watched as she quickly prepared a futon for him and got out a pillow and a blanket. She turned on the heater in the room as soon as the futon was ready.
"Gently place him onto here." Eirin-sama lectured us.
Doing as told, we made our way around the futon so that it was between where Udonge-chan and I stood. We slowly kneel down and placed the cold, unconscious boy onto the futon. When his whole body laid flat on his back; resting onto the short soft mattress, Eirin-sama instantly covered him with the blanket.
We all saw that he was now shivering and breathing a bit heavily. It looks like he also got a chill from the water.
"That should do it for now." Eirin-sama stated.
"He is going to need to get warmer than this, there is a robe and an extra pair of boxer and pants in that wardrobe over there, dress him into that while I prepare some herbal tea for him."
"Yes Eirin-sama," we both replied again in unison.
She walked out of the room, doing as told we went over to the wardrobe an opened it up. Udonge-chan got the robe and I got the boxer and pants. A second later we were back to where the feverish teenager was and dressed him up. By then he was completely dry (I'm guessing it's the heat in the room) so dressing him up was much easier than stripping him.
"I hope he's going to be okay." I told Udonge-chan concernedly.
"Me too Tewi-chan." Reisen replied with the same tone, it looks like she's come to her senses.
"Say weren't we going to get his wet clothes?"
And then the realization hits me too.
"And the crates too, yeah we were huh. Let's go now Udonge-chan."
"Yeah."
And with that said we left the room closing the door behind us. The teenage boy now dressed in warm, dry clothes is now resting peacefully on the soft futon.
*Flashback Ends*
Sakurai Jin's P.O.V
"Wow, what a story." I mentally said aloud before looking over at Eirin.
"So apparently Eirin-chan, you are a nurse/pharmacist and you run this place also as a hospital?"
"Mhm, that's right." Eirin replies to me with a sing song voice.
"And the they you were talking about last night was you two?" I turned over to look at Reisen and Tewi.
"You bet!" Tewi cheered aloud.
"My first assumption was that the gap youkai was at it again, but I knew she would never harm her victims in any cruel way like that."
That came from Reisen, and the she continued
"If it weren't for us you would have caught hypothermia and die."
I was really thankful now and had to express my gratitude.
"I know, thank you both so much." I thanked both Reisen and Tewi before turning back to Eirin and thanking her too which I got a friendly "your welcome," in response, I'm going to make sure my Pokémon thank them both plus Eirin-chan too.
"I appreciate you giving us credit, but I think the best way to thank us would be a Danmaku match. I was going to settle one with you earlier remember?"
That's right she did say something that sounded like their version of a Pokémon battle, but for my Pokémon and I being very Very new to this place, I still had no idea.
"How can we settle this if I don't even know what Danmaku is?" I questioned to my defense.
Tewi steps into our conversation.
"I can explain everything to you while you're both engaging in Danmaku. But first let me explain to you what Danmaku is."
I nodded and let the small rabbit girl continue.
"First of all Danmaku or Curtain of Fire, meaning the you and your opponent engage in an intense dog fight. Your battle style will involve shooting and dodging a wide mass of bullets, lasers, rose petals, and any other projectiles possible. The last fighter standing wins."
I get it now, so it's basically an air battle with only Special Attacks. That doesn't sound very smart in my opinion.
"What about physical attacks?" I asked curiously,
"Aren't punches and kicks allowed too? As well as being on the ground?"
"They are, but it's highly recommended to shoot projectiles because hand to hand combat alone is basically useless here in Gensokyo, it will only wind you up injure—or dead. The same is said about flying verses being on the ground."
I see, so you can do both; nice!
Soon Reisen ends my conversation with Tewi.
"Come on lets Danmaku already, I've been patient far enough already Jin-san! You can fly and shoot right?"
I paused at the last question trying to make it obvious to her that I couldn't. And that's when a really crazy idea popped into my head.
"I can't, but I do have a few friends of mine who can." I stated confidently.
Reisen suddenly got very excited, her red eyes widen like dinner plates and she had an ever so wide grin on her face.
"You do?! Tell me who they are please!" she begged anxiously.
"Could it be whatever it was you said before Jinny?" Asked Tewi."You said Poke something, I can't pronounce it sorry."
Yep I was indeed going to do it.
"All right, I will show you once we are all outside. Eirin-chan?"
"Oh yes, I'll be happy to watch. In fact I'm really interested into knowing who your few friends are."
Eirin sounded really anxious too when she accepted my request.
I pressed my finger lightly onto the middle part of my glasses and slid them up a bit, my glasses then turned pure white with some kind of glare and I grinned profoundly.
"Well then, let's get started shall we?"
And a few seconds later the four of us were outside, Tewi and Eirin sat on the patio while Reisen and I were on dirt path in between the grassy grounds. We stood face to face at a decent space.
I detached a random Pokeball off my fanny pack strap with a click and pressed the button making the ball grow.
"It's those electronic balls I saw yesterday!" I heard Tewi exclaim with surprise.
I took a pitchers stance and prepared my throw.
"All right Lucario, come on out!" I shouted excitedly and threw my Pokeball like a baseball. The Pokeball flew towards half of where Reisen was standing before it opened up and launched itself back releasing a wide, blue beam of light. The ball flew right back into my hands where I held it tightly; the blue light took shape of Lucario's figure and three seconds later, the light disappeared with a spark and Lucario was in full presence.
That was bound to get a reaction out of the three girls and sure enough Reisen had an astonish look on her face, I turned to my right to see that Eirin and Tewi had the same look too.
"Oh my!" Eirin gasped.
"It's so cute!" Tewi screamed with infatuation. She had probably the most amazed look I had ever seen on a little girl's face.
"Wow! This is definitely something you'll never find in Gensokyo! And Tewi-chan, Eirin-sama, and I are the first ones to see it! So cool! What is it?!" Reisen eagerly squealed in a hyped and also girlish tone of voice.
I received all of the girl's first reactions and felt really good.
I was just so flattered!
And I felt really proud too, about myself and Lucario. I had no idea the girls were this interested, it was like I had fans, three of them already. Wait until they see my whole team, what if whoever else lives in Gensokyo sees my Pokémon team? I would be popular in an instant!
"Ladies," I boasted coolly.
"This here is a Pokémon also known as Pocket Monsters, Lucario happens to be a species of a Pokémon."
I then pushed my glasses up and did another cool smile.
"The outside world I come from is Pokearth which is divided into six regions. Kanto, Johto, Hoenn, Sinnoh, Unova, and Kalos. I grew up in the Kanto region where I got my first pokemon."
I made a serious yet cool look.
"I am a Pokémon Trainer!" I exclaimed imagining two cannons loudly firing out confetti that rains down onto me.
I certainly impressed the girls when I said that. I could see the wide smiles on their faces, the positively overexcited aura emanating from them.
Speaking of aura my Lucario took a battle stance and did his usual speech.
"Behold the power of—"
As expected Lucario paused his sentence for a bit and got back into a standard standing position. Seeing that he is in a world unknown to him and taking sight of three female who appeared human but weren't, he was just as confused as I was.
"...Aura..." He slowly and dumbly said in a bewildered tone. He then turned around looking at me with the look of unsure on his face.
"Jin, where in the world are we?"
I sighed and closed my eyes for a moment.
"I know buddy, I had the same reaction as you had."
Meanwhile Reisen's astonishment has gone up to almost the breaking the limit, Tewi and Eirin began to act just like Reisen.
"Oh—my—god—IT CAN TALK TOO?!"
If Reisen herself wasn't loud enough Tewi increased the volume for her.
"KAWAII! IT'S SO ADORABLE I THINK I'M GOING TO DIE!"
Eirin was loud too, but thankfully she wasn't as loud as the two rabbit girls; much to my pleasure.
"This is amazing! While it is common in Gensokyo for mythical creatures to talk, I've never seen anything like this before! It's not even a humanoid yet it's talking; communicating!"
Lucario heard every complement and comment each girl threw at him, but he seemed more rattled than flattered. Mostly because of all the shouting, but he is far from adjusted at this moment for being in a magical world Lucario (and soon my other Pokémon) has never ever seen before.
"It's a long story, my new friends and I will explain everything to you later. But right now, we have ourselves a battle to deal with."
Lucario precipitously faced Reisen and then back to me.
"You mean her? We're going up against another Pokémon trainer who's cosplaying as Lopunny."
Tewi and Eirin lost the urge to resist and broke out laughing. Reisen who should have got mad and correct him instead exclaimed, "And he's talking without even moving his mouth?! Oh my god, Too cool! WAY TOO COOL!"
The shouting from the highly impressed Reisen combined with Tewi and Eirin's laughing flattered me but rattled Lucario some more. I was actually getting a bit intimidated myself from all the loud noise.
"No not go up against, fight. Lucario I know this is going to sound extremely crazy but she's not a trainer. She doesn't even have any Pokémon with her. When I say fight, I mean that purple hair girl with rabbit ears/tail is going to single handily take you on."
Lucario gave me a look as if he saw me with two Hydreigon heads sticking out of my neck. And for the first time, I heard Lucario stutter.
"Wh-What—Are you—S-s-seriously, serious? I-I mean, she's not even a Pokémon. This isn't right."
I sighed once more, I knew exactly how Lucario felt and I knew a predicament like this was eventually going to pop up.
Lucario and I were indeed going up against a magical girl who was going to single handily fight my Lucario. For the first time ever we were going to battle something that wasn't even a Pokémon. I mean, who knows what type she could be, what attacks or abilities she possessed, or what her stats are. There was no predicting at all what Reisen was capable of.
I took a deep breath and decided to at least give this a try. Sure my opponent was Reisen, a young preteen girl who was literally going to fight my Lucario; but a battle was still battle. My Pokémon and I had defeated every Gym Leader, Champion, and Battle Frontier Boss in all the six regions so how hard could this be?
"Lucario, I totally agree with you. But for the time being let's just do what we do in all battles, just pretend you're going up against a real Pokémon"
I felt so awkward when I told Lucario that, I got a sigh from him too.
"Well if you really think this is a good idea then let's make the best of it."
He turned around and got back into a fighting stance returning to his serious battle look; he made a fierce growl as he did so.
Reisen on the other hand was still over impressed; she was lost in her little world; beaming.
"You hoo, Reisen-san. You said you wanted to, Dan—ma—ku. Remember?"
As soon as I reminded her she immediately snaps back into reality.
"Uh, oh yeah that's right!"
She got into a battle stance of her own and also changes her look to a serious one.
"Whenever you're ready!"
I felt the atmosphere changed from awkward to competitive and I prepared myself to give Lucario the first order.
"Lucario, Swords Dance!"
A low but firm growl escaped Lucario's mouth and crimson, red aura shaped swords appeared in front, the side, and behind him. They spun in a graceful pattern before shattering like glass; increasing his attack power by two.
"Awesome!" Tewi cheered out loud.
"He just did it on command to, without any hesitation! Jin-kun how did you get him to do what you want so easily?!"
That was from the astonished nurse who I replied back to.
"It's called trust, the longer your bond is with your Pokémon the stronger and more obedient they will be."
Suddenly I heard some kind of chanting from Reisen.
"Life Elixir, Grand Patriot's Elixir."
She takes out a very authentic looking card to which I swore had a picture of a neon, green light ball, as it's the name of the card; it transforms into a bottle of green elixir. I grew curious when she starting chugging that small bottle down; consuming the green, liquid elixir.
Lucario though kept calm and waited while swaying his paws and arms around in a fighting way.
"That is one of Reisen's spells, utilizing my Brand Enhancer. For Reisen's sake, I won't tell you what the spell does."
Eirin tells me and I can understand why.
"Spell Cards play an important role in casting powerful magic based on specific fighters. Each card shares a limit on power; the stronger the spell is the more power it takes. Every fighter however can regain more power through grazing or with physical strength."
Tewi explains to me.
I see, so Spell Cards are like PP (Power Points), the only difference is Pokémon attacks ideally have their own limit but once there all gone, you can't restore them unless you use ethers or elixirs (regular or max). The Pokémon will grow more tired as his, her, or its PP depletes, but what about energy depleting in Spell Cards? What happens to the fighter?
I certainly have a lot more questions to ask later on, but for now Lucario and I have to focus on the fight at hand.
"Extreme Speed!" I hollered and extended my arm and hand forward.
"Grrho~!" Lucario growled and accelerated himself forward at the speed of sound.
Lucario was about half a feet from where Reisen was standing so this should guarantee a hit, until this happened.
"Acura Spectral!" She shouts, suddenly Reisen also dashes forward and appears like she was going to ram into the speeding Lucario; who ran straight like a speeding metro train. The moment both fighters clashed, I started seeing a vast number of illusions copied like Reisen come out her and spinning in a circular pattern. It seemed similar to Double Team because both fighters completely ran through each other unharmed; like a Normal Type using Quick Attack on a Ghost Type.
"That was so fast!" Tewi commented.
"Yet Reisen still manages to get out of the way, impressive." Eirin added
"Aura Sphere let's go!"
Knowing this illusion attack of Reisen most likely rose her evasiveness, I obviously went for an attack that will ensure a hit; an attack that never misses.
Lucario made an abrupt halt causing him to slide forward a bit more, he turned around and stepped forward bending his right knee and extending his left. With arms and paws to the side of him, he begins charging a dark, blue orb of aura; quickly getting bigger in size.
"Hrah~heh!"
A snarl came from Lucario and he threw his arms forward with both paws spread out, the Aura Sphere was launched and flew towards Reisen in a smooth curve. A loud explosion with black smoke was left behind for Reisen was hit directly in the stomach, surely her clones were out loose, but an Aura Sphere attack is always inescapable.
"Oof!" I heard Reisen grunt before she was about to hit the ground, though with fast reflexes she instantly recovers and catches the ground with her left hand; performing a backflip back up to her feet. I saw her long, purple hair fly all over the place.
She did another battle pose looking totally unharmed, "What the heck?" I thought. That was a direct hit, there's no way she could have endured it. Wait a minute what if she's a Psychic Type or any other type that resist Fighting Attacks?
"Close Combat!"
To deal more damage, I told Lucario to go for a physical attack which will be supported from the Swords Dance earlier.
I saw Reisen jump into the air; firing a barrage of neon bullets. They were in overwhelming numbers of blue, red, and green. It was like a giant, colorful version of Bullet Seed except from a distance they were clumped together in wide formation.
Enough to shower a whole acre of land in explosions, well of course I'm just exaggerating but you get what I mean.
I was intimidated by the huge amount of projectiles she shot at Lucario, but to my surprise he was dodging every one of them! I saw him short hop here, sidestep there, and hand spring everywhere. Eventually he used the power of his aura to launch himself into the air; evading the speeding barrage of bullets side to side.
"Now that is an example of Danmaku right there." Eirin states joyfully.
I saw Lucario use an extra boost of aura to launch himself further and faster into the air, until he was behind Reisen; readying an axe kick to her back. He landed the axe kick but only got the air, her top notched instincts made her dash away from the kick.
Soon I saw her gliding in the air with her arms behind her and knee forward, she glides in a wide, circular rotation before performing a forward handspring which dodges an incoming tail attack coming from above.
After his tail smacked the ground; leaving a dent behind, Lucario uses more aura to recover from the recharge time and dashed his way towards Reisen who was running with her arms behind.
A downward, flying kick was brought down by Lucario as he was close to her enough to strike. Reisen anticipated the attack by pivoting herself back so that she faced Lucario while dodging the kick at the same time. She blocked and dodged every punch, kick, knee, palm, and tail attack Lucario threw at her while also skipping backwards.
"As you would see in normal rabbits, Reisen has blinding speed. Her agility should never be underestimated." Eirin states.
Her statements helped me come up with possible strategies while also telling me how strong Reisen was, Lucario on the underhand had to learn about Reisen's capabilities the hard way.
Another punch attempt was shot at Reisen by Lucario, this time the long purple hair girl got a hold of Lucario's right wrist. With no time to react, I watched as she twist his arm and yanked it upwards bringing him closer to her. I could also see Reisen's other free hand pressing against his pit. When he was at a decent space she removed her hand off of his pit and clenches it into a fist, I cringed as I watched Reisen deliver a devastating punch to Lucario's stomach.
I saw him flinch from blow and he stumbled backwards, not far though because Reisen still held up his arm. A firm grunt came from her and she took Lucario into a sweep kick, her foot was behind his in which she swept it backwards ramming her heel into his ankle; still not letting go of his wrist, Reisen had brought Lucario to his knees earning another grunt of pain from him. Her grip on Lucario's wrist ended when she suddenly vanished before reappearing behind him, she leans forward with a punch that was boosted by Reisen's body bending ahead with her left leg bent and up in the air.
She was in a position similar to a ballerina while also performing what looked like a Sucker Punch attack, my mouth However reacted faster than Reisen's fist.
"Intercept it!"
And before I knew it, Reisen's fist had already collided with the back of Lucario's head. Fortunately his self-defense instincts reacted quickly and Lucario did the same as Reisen, though his warp was vastly different from hers. He first made two brief clones of himself which spread apart then quickly came together and disappeared. He reappeared behind the girl with the long purple hair and connected his palm with her back; delivering a devastating force palm (Not necessary the Pokémon attack, just combat wise).
"Uguu!" Reisen squeaked and flew a couple feet onward from the blow, once again she recovered with another forward flip and got to her feet before turning to face Lucario.
She was panting and sweating hard, but the stance she was in told us she was still ready to go. I mean she still looks like we just started the battle, how much HP (Health Points) does this preteen girl have?
Lucario on the other hand though still standing looks more fatigued than Reisen, despite having plenty of PP left Lucario still struggled to brace himself while keeping his fighting stance.
"Don't give up Lucario, you're doing great!" I cheered the heavily breathing Lucario with encouragement.
"Jin…" He panted,
"I think her power has something to do with that Elixir she drank."
I wasn't surprise he was able to notice that kind of thing because Lucario's aura was meant to do that, but what about the Elixir though?
"He, I mean Lucario is right." Eirin corrected herself before agreeing. She even said his name correctly on the first try, something that made me proud.
"My Brand Enhancer sharply increases Reisen's attack and defense power with one dose. Since she drank it earlier I'm not surprise she has plenty of energy left to fight."
Wow she made it sound like Reisen was taking a drug or something, if one bottle to her was equivalent to six Swords Dances and three Cotton Guards; I could only imagine how powerful she'll be if she drinks more.
"Okay then in that case we need to land more surprise attacks, run up to her!"
Right away Lucario understood the plan with a nod at took off towards Reisen. Tewi and Eirin on the other hand were confused.
"Going for a mindless attack? Jin-kun, what are you doing?" The nurse questioned uneasily and brought her hand to her mouth with wide eyes.
"That's a death sentence right there Jinny!" Tewi shouted while squeezing her eyes shut.
"You'll see in a moment." I swaggered and pushed my glasses upwards once again.
Lucario was almost where Reisen was standing, as expected Reisen got ready to attack so Lucario and I put the plan into action. Right when Lucario was about to tackle her, he jumped up at the last second; so fast and so high in the air no one knew for a second where he went.
Few seconds later Lucario dropped on his feet quickly and found himself behind Reisen, I anticipated her to jump out of the way three seconds before Lucario hit the ground and then I shouted.
"Swords Dance!"
And Lucario began to power himself up a second time.
"Wow that was so amazing!" Tewi's voice increased like she was sitting inside the Rondez-View Ferris Wheel in Unova; look at the view from above.
"Oh I see, you had Lucario lure Reisen into thinking you were going to attack her but changed formats at the last second."
"Well that was a dirty trick!" Reisen protested aloud.
"When you are a Pokémon Trainer, no strategy is never dirty nor a trick." I lectured her feeling somewhat like a smart ass.
"Well I'll show you! Come and get me!"
I didn't necessarily did as told but I did give Lucario another command
"Extreme Speed once more! And run in a zigzag pattern."
I said my last sentence mentally which Lucario could read through his aura. I saw him clench his fangs and teeth making a serious scowl, he took of rushing towards Reisen but started off with a dash; diagonally right then left.
Suddenly I saw Reisen take a battle stance and glared, I was shocked when I saw her red eyes suddenly glowed and shine; they lit up like ruby, red light bulbs.
I swore I saw what looked like a transparent blob of waves. It was very brief so I couldn't make out the image even with my glasses on.
Meanwhile Lucario was still dashing in long zigzag patterns, all of a sudden his Extreme Speed attack was cut short and I found Lucario clutching his head with his paws snarling in pain.
"Argh!" Lucario screamed; he looked like he was being hit with a Metal Sound attack.
"Lucario what's wrong?!" I exclaimed in concern and confusion.
"That girl! I don't know how but she is increasing the frequency of brainwaves; it's interfering with my aura!"
Reisen remains standing with that serious glare on her face, and then I heard Tewi and Eirin speak up.
"That's one of Udonge-chan's abilities." Tewi declared and then Eirin spoke too.
"Reisen is known as the Manipulation of Insanity. By frequently controlling light and sound waves in the air, she can drive her opponents into a state of insanity."
Holy crap, that is scary! I had no idea Reisen was capable of doing something quite as sadistic as this! She must be really strong if it's going to break through even Lucario's aura.
After about twenty seconds of Reisen's technique, she finally ended the waves in the air granting Lucario a bit of mercy. That was until she pulled out another Spell Card!
"Poison Smokescreen, Gas-Woven Orb!"
I saw Reisen's card transform into another bottle, the liquid was the same green color but the bottle's shape was vastly different; it was wider, kind of like a circle.
Immediately she throws the bottle to the ground harshly; shattering it. As soon the glass bottle exploded into shards the green liquid which immediately changed into green gas was released. It appeared to be heavier than the air for it was sticking to the ground.
I wish I knew what the gas does, judging by the spell's name it must be a Poison Type attack that badly poisons opponents while also reducing their accuracy. Then I felt relived for a second, accuracy wasn't a problem for Lucario at all due to his Aura Sphere attack and because he's also part Steel Type, the poisonous gas should have no effect at all.
Or so I thought.
Lucario appeared very dizzy now; he was no longer in his fighting stance and instead starting limping. He looks like he was hit by an energy draining attack like Giga Drain or Horn Leech.
"Uh-oh—Lucario is in big trouble now." Tewi mentions in a childish and suspenseful tone.
"One of Reisen's other spells, unless you're in the air you won't be escaping this lethal attack at all. That gas will gradually sap energy from opponents as long as they are on the ground."
Eirin gave me the heads up.
I listen to her and yelled, "Lucario jump now!"
But it must have too late because he looked like he was about to collapse.
"Hang in there Lucario!"
"Now let's finish this!" Reisen yelled firmly and aimed her gun folded hand at Lucario. I cringed as I watch her neon bullets getting fired out of her finger and rapidly hitting Lucario's chest in a devastating barrage. It was too much for him to handle, and when I was about to give him another command; I was interrupted by Reisen.
"Red Eye; Viewing the Circle Moon, Lunatic Blast!"
I was intimidated by the name itself, it had to sound like her version of Roar of Time or Fusion Flare. My answers confirmed to be correct after I heard another statement coming from Eirin.
"It's over, even though the number of Spell Cards needed for this spell is expensive; the attack itself is worth the cost if it lands."
Then I heard more information come out of Tewi.
"And with the condition Lucario is in right now, there's no way Udonge-chan is going to miss."
"Damn it." I cursed to myself and watched in horror as Reisen began her attack.
It turns out to be a massive, wide range beam of red aura going slightly upwards. The beam swallowed half of Lucario's body dragging him into the air with despicable force, I could hear Lucario scream but it was muffled by the loud drone Reisen's massive beam made; therefore making the scream faint.
I was witnessing a preteen girl shooting what looked like a Hyper Beam out of her eyes! This girl's potential was off the chart, from all those years of training with Lucario and my other Pokémon, we were still easily defeated! For fuck's sake I felt like we were battling a legendary!
As time passed Reisen's massive beam eventually grew thinner until it disappeared completely along with the glow in her eyes. I watched as Lucario's limp body dropped to the floor with smack; like using the attack Smack Down on a Flying Type or Levitator (any Pokémon with the ability Levitate).
"And that's how Danmaku is done!" She cheered gracefully and placed her fists onto her hips with a wide, satisfied grin on her face.
"Lucario no!" I exclaimed and ran over to the spot where he landed, Reisen launched Lucario quite far so it took me a while to get there. When I did get there though, I instantly squatted and saw a fainted Lucario lying on his front. The spirals on his eyes remained there and I quickly unzipped my fanny pack; fumbling for whatever it was I was looking for.
I heard some quick footsteps and soon sensed the female trio standing behind me looking down at my slumped Pokémon.
"Jin-san I-I didn't mean." Reisen sounded guilty and worriedly.
"Is he going to be all right?!" Tewi asked anxiously with the same tone.
"I hope Reisen didn't hit him too hard." Eirin comments concerned.
I wasn't mad though.
"Girls it's perfectly fine, there's nothing to be concern about."
I tell them calmly and took out what I was looking for; which was a Max Revive.
"That's how all Pokémon battles are like, I'm sure your Danmaku's are like this too; which is why I'm prepared for situations like these."
I held out the medical solid in front of them displaying its smooth, spiny texture. The girls especially coming for Eirin were amazed by the looks of the spiky diamond in my hands.
"What is that thing?" Eirin asked me eagerly, I can't blame her because she is a nurse after all.
"This is a medical item given the name of Max Revive." I answered her like if I were the Sensei answering a question from his student.
"Watch this," I lectured them, while I could get all nerdy and go into detail; I needed to help my Lucario as soon as I could. And that's what I did.
I placed the spiky, gold colored diamond onto Lucario's back and waited. Five seconds later the diamond sank into Lucario's body creating small transparent ripples. I heard a few gasps of astonishment (Most of them coming from Tewi) from the three girls that were watching.
When the diamond was fully inside, Lucario's body his body began to glow yellow for ten seconds before fading away.
And just like that his eyes opened up and he sprung up like nothing happened to his body at all. He was one hundred percent healthy already.
"And that's what happens," I concluded doing the same thing with my glasses; I swore it's going to become a bad habit pretty soon.
I got a long wow from both Tewi and Reisen, Eirin though had another comment to show off her impression.
"Could I please get a sample of that please? It could be my newest product here in Gensokyo if I can get a piece to study with."
I thought about her request for a few seconds, then I replied to her, "Why yes off course you may, but I have a bit of a request of my own."
"Oh? And what would that be?" Eirin asked curiously.
"Well you see, now that my Pokémon and I are in this unknown world called Gensokyo; anything that was in Pokearth won't be here. Such as Pokémon Centers which are really crucial for sick and injured Pokémon. It'll only be a matter of time before I run out of medical supplies and won't be able to buy more."
Eirin seemed confused,
"And your point is?"
"It would make my Pokémon and I very happy if you can make some medicine for us. That way you can use my medicine to work on your new product and I could supply the medicine you make so I can save myself trouble of conserving."
When the white hair nurse understood my point, her face lightens up, "Why yes of course, I'll be more than happy to do that for you Jin-kun!"
Eirin was very happy and it lightened me up to.
"In fact, give me more of your medicine and I can let you and your Pokémon stay here for free."
I felt excitement building into my stomach.
"You—you really mean it, for how long?"
The nurse's warm smile remains.
"As long as you like, until we can find a way to get you and your Pokémon back to your world, be my guest."
My grin grew ever so wide and I was euphoric, this is amazing! Now my Pokémon and I wouldn't have to go through trouble camping out in open of the unknown world! I couldn't believe how nice she was to me, my Pokémon and I were going to enjoy this I know it!
Getting dramatic I got onto my knees and bowed; my head touching her shoes.
"Thank you very much! You are very kind!"
I think I was about to cry in joy but I controlled myself and got back up.
"Please-please, it's no problem at all. I'm just happy that you are willing to help me, now the medicine please." Eirin requested; sounding a little bashful.
"Ah, yes of-of course"
I dug through my fanny pack some more before taking out another Max Revive and this time a Full Restore.
"The green bottle is a spray type medicine, though it doesn't revive fainted Pokémon; it will make a Pokémon very healthy in no time."
I happily handed her the medicines after my little explanation and she took it from me gracefully.
"Thank you very much Jin-kun I know I can count on you!"
She reaches out her hand and ruffles my short black hair into a wavy mess.
"Well then, shall we go inside for lunch?" Eirin clapped her hands and asked with joy.
Pretty soon she walked back into the room and Reisen, Tewi, Lucario, and I followed her in. As I was walking I couldn't help but feel kind of warm. My heart pounded like I just finish drinking a can of coffee while my cheeks were also tingly.
I had no idea what my body was doing.
I thought about it for a while before I felt a pair of arms wrap around mine, it was Tewi.
"Yay! you and your friends are staying! We're going to have a lot of fun together!"
Suddenly I heard Reisen's voice and turned to see that she and Lucario were on the right walking next to me. "She's right, won't you please tell me more about Pokémon pretty please!" The purple hair preteen pleaded.
"Me too, I want you to tell me too!"Tewi beseeches.
I sighed as both rabbit girls begged and said, "Sure, why not. And you can tell me more about Danmaku, what do you both say?"
"Yay!" they both cheered in unison.
I got a sigh from my Lucario. This was going to be rather exhausting, Lucario and I could tell.
