A/N: Aw, thanks for reviewing guys :D I know this is a more quiet part of (this particular pairing) so I really appreciate you guys for taking the time to review:D By the way, this might be a little short because I was at Band today, but nonetheless I hope you enjoy w/e I come up with! (I write on a whim)

"She...she beat me..." Paul said, sounding awestruck.
"With ease." Red pitched in with a smirk. There was a proud glimmer in his eyes, too; I was honestly a little surprised. Even after I'd been so hostile with him?
"Well, I train my pokemon hard." I told him honestly. "Yet not to the point in which they hurt themselves training, but..."
"But how do they get so strong?" Dawn asked, amazed. "Torterra's Paul's strongest pokemon, but you took it down with no problems!"
"Yeah, well..." I shrugged as if it was no big deal. "Hax is just that awesome. Right, Hax?" The last part was directed towards my pokemon, who was still boasting about his win. Upon hearing his name, he turned and roared proudly, and I smiled softly at him.
"You know..." May started hesitantly, stepping towards me. "Your...dad...is an amazing trainer, just like you."
"Really?" I asked, trying to sound interested. I was starting to feel guilty for acting so bitchy earlier; you just don't throw that kind of fast-ball at a girl (me) who's been through so much in the last few days.
"Mhm! In fact, you're looking at the Jhoto region champion!" Dawn grinned. "I'm the Sinoh region champion, and...oh! Your dad's also the champion of Kanto and Hoenn."
"He's...your the champion in three different regions?" I spluttered, disbelieving.
Red nodded, looking at his feet. "THAT'S SO COOL!" I cried out.
He looked up at me, a spark of hope glimmering in his eyes. "You think so?"
I nodded. "Yeah, I mean...it's hard enough to pull off beating one set of Elite 4 AND the champion, let alone three!"
"You speak from experience?" Drew asked, joining in with a renewed interest.
"Er..." I thought of how I defeated Alder and the Elite 4, with quite ease. "Yeah, I guess. Though I'm not a champion-"
"Yes you are." Cynthia interrupted me. "You beat Alder."
"But not N..."
"N didn't take the title from Alder." Cynthia explained. "For some absurd reason, he wanted you to have it, and you gained it when you defeated Alder."
"Eh?" I asked, confused.
"Just think of it as N never battled Alder, alright? You were the only one who legitimately battled Alder for the title, therefore you were the one who gained it." Cynthia informed me.
"Oh..." I trailed off, lost in thought. Why would he want me to have the title? Was it for something else?
"Don't fret, child. It was probably his attempt to be chivalrous." Reshiram soothed me, sensing my mounting fears and jumping nerves.
"Yeah..." I mumbled, looking at her with meaningful eyes. She bent her head towards me, her way of saying 'don't worry'.
"Anyways, it's my turn to boast!" May grinned while Drew threw his arm around her shoulders, pulling her into his side. "I'm a pokemon coordinator!"
"Er...am I supposed to know what that means?" I grinned sheepishly, scratching the back of my head.
Ma gasped. "Oh my god, you're missing out on the best thing in the world!"
"That's being a trainer." I responded immediately.
"That's what Red says." Drew observed with a smirk. I flushed; was I more like my dad than I thought?
"Shut up, Drew." Red cut in curtly. Did he not like the connection? Despite what I said earlier, I felt a little pang in my chest.
"I'm back!" A voice called out, ringing through the air.
I let my eyes wander to the path leading from the house, where a teenager with a mop of brown hair was running towards us.
"Touya!" May called out in greeting happily.
"Hey Aunt May." He smiled. "Hey Aunt Dawn, Uncle Paul, Uncle Drew, Grandpa...hey dad."
Dad? Holy sh-
"Wait a minute!" I cried out in disbelief. "You're-"
"Touko, wait I can explain." Red interrupted hurriedly in panic. "I didn't have...I didn't go through the baby-making process with someone else, Touya's your twin brother!"
I stared at him. "I was gonna say that he was the trainer I faced in Nimbasa City, but let's concentrate on what you just said, shall we?"
"Wait a minute!" Touya cried. "The trainer who kicked my ass and I had a crush on for a while is my SISTER?"
"Woah...a little too much info." I crinkled my nose in partial disgust. Touya chuckled, embarrassed. "Sorry. Um, let's try this again: I'm Touya, your older brother by 5 minutes, and it's very nice to meet you again."
I laughed. "Er, yeah...that works."
"Wait, lemme get this straight." Paul cut in. "YOU beat Touya TOO?"
"Mhm." I told him, remembering the day with a smile.
"Oh, sorry miss!" The teenager cried out after steadying me. I was hurrying towards the amusement park in search of Team Plasma (after healing my pokemon, of course.) when he'd bumped into me, most likely hurrying in the other direction.
"Nah, my fault." I told him with a smile. "Sorry!"
"S'okay..."He eyes roomed over my face with interest. "Hey, you're a trainer aren't you?"
"Mhm." I nodded.
"Battle me." He decided.
"In the middle of a city?" I asked, startled.
"Nah...let's go off to the side? C'mon." He dragged me up and down a few flight of stairs and took a right, heading off onto the route on the other side of the terminal.
"Here." He pointed to a grassy slope, leading to a river.
"C'mon out, Herdier!" He threw the poke-ball out, and out of the white flash came a Herdier.
"Let's take 'em down, Dewott!" I yelled, throwing his poke-ball into the air. Dewott, with a cry of pride and bravery, landed on the ground with ease.
"Water Pulse!" I cried, wasting no time with jumping into the fight. Dewott launched himself at Herdier, moving at the speed of light.
"Wha? Uh...!" The boy (man?) was confused, lost, for a second, but before he could realize what was joining on, Dewott smashed his fist down on Herdier's head, sending it tumbling to the ground.
A one hit K.O.
"Awesome job, Dewott." I patted his head before giving him a hug. "Thank you!"
"Oh, wow...you're amazing..." The boy muttered, walking up to me while I returned Dewott to his poke-ball.
"Thanks." I grinned. "Now, if you'll excuse me, I have a few crooks to go catch."
"Pfft. I never knew I was related to you." I gave him a look.
"Well, it felt as if I saw you before..." Touya admitted sheepishly.
"Ah." I told him, nodding. "I didn't really dwell on that battle...you asked me to battle while I was looking for Team Plasma."
His eyes lightened up at this, as if he was remembering something. "Right! That's what I came to tell you all." He paused, waiting for everyone's attention.
"What is it, Touya?" Red asked worriedly.
"Well, these Team Plasma dorks have joined forces with Team Aqua and Team Galactic." Touya sighed. "They're talking out a deal with Team Rocket, and they have a meeting with Team Magma."
"THEY'RE WHAT?" All the adults (so basically everybody but me) yelled.
Touya nodded solemnly.
"Um, is that bad?" I asked, uncertain.
"REALLY bad." Dawn answered with a nervous glance. Paul walked over to her and wrapped his arms around her waist protectively (huh, never thought of him as a hugger).
"Think of them as...4 other Team Plasmas." Red suggested, squeezing my shoulder and gently tugging me closer to him subconsciously.
"Ah, fuck." I grumbled. "Just what we needed."
May and Dawn were suddenly grinning like maniacs (I was starting to wonder if they were bipolar or something...).
"What?" I asked them, raising an eyebrow.
"Oh, nothing! Just...you said 'we'." Dawn chirped, her eyes glinting.
I blushed. "Yeah, well...you haven't tried to kill me yet. Er, sorry about earlier, guess I went into shock..."
"All is forgiven!" May smiled warmly, causing me to return the favour. Red wrapped his arm around me, and I didn't even shove it off.
"Now...I need to start training." I stated the obvious.
"Captain Obvious to the rescue!" Simisear cried, running around like a maniac.
"Shut up Sims." I whined, giving him an adoring look.
"You're just like your dad." Drew chuckled, shaking his head.
"How so?" Red whined.
"Er...I BLAME GENETICS." I cried out, laughing, but squealed when Red picked me up in a bear hug and spun me around, placing back down on the ground in front of me.
"But you got my sexy eyes." Red whined again, playfully.
"Whew, thank god didn't get your ego!" I cried out in mock-relief.
He laughed, before playfully shoving me.
"Oh dear, thank god she didn't get an ego. You, ah...'heroes' with egos are simply unbearable!" A male voice (another one?) cried out mockingly from behind me. I turned, to find an older man with sky-blue hair. His cold eyes shone with hate, and he was staring at one, particular woman-
"Cyrus?" Dawn cried out in disbelief.
A/N: D'awh. All the little daddy daughter moments! And uh-oh...they're teaming up! AND Cyrus found them? What'll happen now? REVIEW FOR QUICKER UPDATE. Thanks for all my reviewers:D
