Infinitos Aeterna: Secundus Partis
***permissum fabula suscipio ***
"Return, Bronzong!"
"It seems you've come along way long way in the nine years you have trained pokémon,"
said Lucian.
"Tell me about it. I had to run after alakazam as an abra because she used to teleport everywhere. She never used to listen and we barely won our battles. I was a local in Saffron city, where there was a lot of Psychic trainers, so I could get help. I told a neighbour who had some psychics of his own and he said I could train in the Saffron gym. Sabrina was initially cold to me when I started training in her gym, but as we trained together and got stronger, like a blossom, she opened up to me and we became friends. I oriented myself towards Psychic pokémon, though my starter was charmander,"
Said I, to no one in particular.
"Return, Alakazam!"
I called.
"Good match, Sayo! You did a great job battling with your pokémon!"
Said Lucian.
"Yeah, thanks, good match to you too, even though this is the FIFTH time in a row I've lost to you!"
I said, with a hint of frustration.
"Don't feel too bad about it,"
Said Lucian, with a grin.
"Try saying that when you go a month without winning "
I thought. Yeah. I doubt anyone else in the history of pokémon has ever gone a month without a single victory against anyone.
"I'll be off now to the pokémon centre downstairs,"
Said Lucian
"Yeah. It's the same with me. You really took care of Alakazam!"
I responded.
As nurse Joy healed Lucian's pokémon and mine, I noticed a certain blonde sitting at the nearby table. It was Cynthia. I sat down next to Cynthia.
"Hi, Sayo. I see you have once again attempted to beat Lucian. How did it go?"
"I lost. Again. He won. Again,"
Said I, with a ghost of a sigh.
"I see. Maybe you'll win next time, I'm sure of it,"
Said Cynthia.
"You've said that the last four times. Don't get your hopes up,"
I thought. Yeah. No bets here.
Lucian sat down next to us. Lucian and Cynthia then began to converse.
"Sayo's just finished telling me about the battle. She says you won."
"I did."
I chimed into the conversation.
"Excuse me, I hate to interrupt, but it's time to head to the Survival Area. Flint said he'd meet us there with Aaron, Roark, Volkner and Buck , remember?"
"Oh yes, right."
Said Lucian.
Cynthia took out her cell, which had a garchomp print skin on it. She dialled a number and was soon conversing.
"Hello, Flint, it's Cynthia."
"Yo, hey Cynthia. What's up?"
"Hello Flint. We'll be over in just a few minutes, just to let you know."
"Ok then. I'll let the others know."
"Alright then, I'll see you there."
Cynthia closed her cell and put it back. The three of us then exited the cathedral like pokémon league.
"Togekiss can't carry the three of us, so, Cynthia, you can go with Lucian on your Togekiss, while I go alone on my Charizard,"
I said.
"Sounds like a plan to me,"
Replied Cynthia.
"Go Togekiss!"
Called Cynthia.
"I choose you, Charizard!"
I called.
"Toge-Kiiiiiissssss!"
"Charizard!"
Lucian and Cynthia got aboard Togekiss while I got aboard Charizard.
"Togekiss, take us to the Battle Zone!"
Commanded Cynthia
"Charizard, follow them!"
I called out.
We soon ascended into the bright afternoon sky.
The view was nice… so long as it lasted. It wasn't too long before the Survival Area came in sight and we saw a group of people standing in front of the pokémon center.
It wasn't long before Lucian's, Cynthia's and my feet were all on the ground. Cynthia and I both called back our pokémon. Standing in front of us is a group of five . Directly in front of me is a jovial man with a distinctive red afro. This man is none other than Michael Flint, the master of fire and it's pokémon. To his right is a tall man, but not quite as tall as Lucian. This man is Adam D. Volkner, lord of the pokémon of electricity. To Flint's left is a very short young boy, filled with energy that seemed to radiate from him. He is Michael Flint's younger brother, Buck. To Buck's left is a short mahogany haired young man with a sweet but tough face. This is Roark, master of the stone pokémon. Last but most certainly not least is the short, bouncy young man standing to Volkner's right. This young man is nobody other that the Joyful Aaron Jubinson, the king of bug pokémon.
"Yo, what's up, Lucian! Been countin' the days on my fingers!"
Said Flint, with a thumbs up.
"I'm doing excellent, thank you."
Replied Lucian.
While they conversed, I noticed two female figures behind the group of men, one light blue haired, the other dark purple haired. As far as I knew, no other girls were invited besides Cynthia and I. I couldn't see the two other girls faces behind the crowd of men.
As Lucian began to talk about our battle, the two girls came out of hiding. They revealed themselves with a loud "Surprise!"
I recognised them immediately.
"Naomi? Ume? What a nice surprise! Flint didn't say you were coming!"
I responded, to their sudden appearance in the crowd.
"We were already here and we saw Flint. He told us that he was calling some friends over and you were among them,"
Explained the dark purple haired Ume.
"I thought it would be a great idea to surprise you, so, here we are!"
Said the light blue haired Naomi.
"Nice to see you again,"
I said.
"Who are they?"
Whispered Roark to Aaron.
"I think they're Sayo's friends or something,"
Replied Aaron.
"Can we have a blazin' battle when we go inside the Match Place?"
Asked Flint.
"Nah, it's okay. I don't feel up to it today."
I responded, with a sigh.
"Aw, shucks. Maybe another time?"
Said Flint.
"Maybe we could have tea at the Match café instead?"
Suggested Ume.
"Yeah, good idea."
Said Buck.
"Sounds cool."
Said Volkner.
We entered the match place.
"Hello, what would you like to have?"
Asked the clerk we sat down.
"I'd like a coffee with cream, please,"
said Lucian.
"Same with me,"
Said Cynthia
"Nah, I'm alright."
I said
"Some water would be fine,"
Said Naomi
We all placed our orders.
"Coming right up!"
Said the clerk.
"Wow, it's quite warm in here!"
Said Lucian as he removed his jacket.
Immediately I felt my face get warm.
"Sayo! Your face, it's red! You're blushing!"
Exclaimed Ume.
"I'm fine, I'm …uh… just getting warm too I guess…"
I responded.
As soon as our drinks arrived, time flew by. Before long, it was 5:00 pm, time for Naomi, Ume and I to return to Marigold City, where we lived.
"Alright then, goodbye everyone! Nice seeing you again!"
I said to everyone on the ground as Charizard flew Naomi, Ume and I into the evening.
