Another day, another chapter. I do not own anything in the pokemon world. I just own Kit, Korey, Tommy, and Darius.
Read and Review
Chapter Four
Korey's POV
I glanced over at Kit as she collected Zorua and Umbreon. "Toge?" I smiled sadly at Togetic.
"It's nothing, buddy. Something just came up, that's all." He stared, calculating. "Really, I mean it!" Just then Kit came back. "Lets go."
"Okay." We walked in silence for about an hour before I started to get worried. She seemed like the type who didn't like silence, and for her to be quiet...
"Penny for your thought?" She looked at me, and I saw the sad look my mother had giving me when I'd returned home for a while, a bit back.
"It's nothing." I frowned but let it slid. "Hey Korey, you said that you started with a Chikarita, then got a Pichu, why do you only have a Togetic?" I could tell that wasn't what she had wanted to ask.
"Pichu fell in love with my sister, who just turned twelve. Togetic was my third." She nodded to herself and I sighed. "Oi, watch where you're going!" I said, yanking her away from walking into a tree. She looked down at the ground and we continued on our way. I glanced at her from time to time, but she seemed lost to the world, until a Budew jumped out, scaring her. It looked at her and then went to run away. She let it go. "Why didn't you want to catch it?"
"Did you know once a Budew connects to a trainer, and evolves it will die the same day as it's trainer does?" She asked gently. I looked at her in shock. I did know this, but for her to talk about it in that tone.
"Your mom had a Roselia or Roserade, didn't she?"
"Yeah, a powerful one too." I sighed, and watched as she got a dazed look about her.
"Come on, we're stopping for a while." I said sternly. "I don't want you walking into a Beedrill's nest." So we sat, enjoying the time to think. I pulled out a book on whether types in a battle really mattered or not. In my personal opinion they didn't. I've seen Beedrill take out Tommy's-No I have to stop thinking of him. No more lies. Not anymore.
"Korey, I want to start moving." I agreed, and we started walking again, her holding Umbreon in her arms. My thoughts drifted to the talk I had with her father
Flashback
"It's nice to meet you Korey." The man looked nothing like her!
"Hello sir." I answered back, bowing to the phone.
"Ah, a polite one. Listen boy, make sure no boy, including yourself, tries anything with my daughter. She is all I have left. Johanna is her aunt through her mother. I can't stand to see her hurt so early."
"I understand sir. I will watch out for Kit. After all, she is the first friend I've had in a while. I already view her as a little sister that I can trust to the fullest like my own sister. I will not let harm fall upon her."
"Korey, another thing, I think she gets it in her head she has to help everyone since her mother's death when she was little. Please, don't let her feel that way."
"I understand. Would you like to talk to her one last time?"
End of Flash Back
"Ka-or-ee!" I looked at Kit with a confused glance. "I was calling you for five minutes. Its dark out, and I wanted know if we should stop or keep walking."
"Stopping is the best idea." I watched as she fed her Pokemon and went to sleep. "She's niave, yet so strong, Togetic. I can tell she's going to go far with her dreams. I'll be there, to support her as a friend and as a stand in brother. I will be there for her, unlike how I turned him away. I won't do that to another person. She'll need the support. I should have stayed with him, but it was awkward.
That night, I was plauged by my past, both family and friend related. So when Kit woke me up by screaming my name, I, of course, was screaming back. We jumped feet apart and packed up, me glancing at her yet again as she stayed quiet. "Just ask it already! Whatever it is, I'm sure I can handle answering your question, Kit!" She bit her lip, making me think that she wasn't going to ask.
"You won't get mad? And you'll answer truthfully?" I nodded, not sure as to where this was going. "You won't leave me after I know?"
"Kit, ask me already. For crying out loud, it's like you're asking me out!" I froze, feeling all the color I could possibly have left in my face drain. "You're...not right?"
"No! Gross! No, it's...well...I..." She took a deep breath, and within one second she asked. "-?"
"What? Kit slow down, and breathe. I promise that I won't get mad, just tell me what's bugging you!"
"Who is Tommy?" I stopped breathing, it was impossible, just the thought of her finding out...
"Tommy was just a friend." I could tell she didn't buy it, honestly, neither did anyone. Yet, I couldn't help it, as my thought lingered on that day.
Flashback
"Korey, you are either leaving that boy, and starting over in Sinnoh like Kain, or you are coming home!" I stared at my father on the phone, my heart breaking in two.
"Father, don't make me choose between my best friend and family, please!" I bit back the tears.
"Korey Anthony you are almost eighteen! No crying!" I glared at him as I heard Tommy walk in the room. "I mean it, leave that no body and start over!" I threw my Pokegear against the wall and Tommy sat beside me.
"Korey, just leave. We can still see each other." No, Tommy, don't make me choose my family, I want you!
"But..."
"I can do this, don't worry, you just take care of yourself, okay?" I looked him in the eye and knew it was an empty promise. Even if we made plans, there is just no way for us to do this.
Tentatively, I placed my lips on his cheek. "I'm sorry, Tommy!" And left the room, crying
End Of flashback
"Korey?"
"Please, I left him as a friend. Just leave it alone Kit."
