Alright! I have a feeling that this will be a GOOD chapter! I DO NOT nor have I EVER owned Harry Potter or Pokémon. Thank you.
Ruby looked at the entrance of the Great Hall.
"Yep, they're here." He muttered when he heard the yelling outside.
Sapphire just nodded, and they both got up from chairs as it steadily got louder and louder. The students grew quieter as the arguing volume increased.
Ruby walked slowly over to the door, ignoring the numerous eyes staring him down. Sapphire stood a few steps behind him, watching.
"Go on, look out." She urged.
After taking a deep breath, he cautiously looked out. Nothing was there. Maybe the letter's date was wrong? He thought hopefully.
Get real! There is NO freagin way they would miss this! Another part of him chided.
He turned his back to tell Sapphire, when something flew into him.
CRASH!
"Huh? The ground here is soft…" said a feminine voice. Ruby went red.
The girl looked down. She had long brown hair and a white kind of sun hat. She wore a sky blue tee with a light red skirt, and a beige bag hanging down. She had light brown eyes with tints of green.
"Ruby! How did you get down there?"
"Because," he said," you LANDED on me, Green!"
Green wasn't listening, and saw Sapphire," Sapphire! How you've been doing? You haven't sent me any news!"
"I haven't had much time." She admitted.
She jumped off Ruby and began observing the place while listening to Sapphire.
"Hey Green!" Ruby asked, suddenly remembering something," How many are here? I thought I heard others."
She turned around," Oh! Let's see… "She held up her fingers. Ruby winced. That's not good…,"Me, Gold, Silver, Diamond, Pearl, Black, White…" She trailed off counting off with her fingers.
Ruby gave a sigh of relief.
"…Oh! And Red, Blue, and Emerald!" she finished excitedly, not noticing Ruby twitching and Sapphire sighing.
"Green, you said that only a few people were coming! You brought everybody!" Sapphire whined.
Green flashed a mischievous smile," More people, more fun!"
"Then the yelling we heard was…" he never finished because just then, they all came in. However, it seemed most of them were holding Blue and Red from trying to murder each other.
"What did you say?" Red was pissed. As usual.
"I thought you heard, but I'll say it again. My team could kick your ass!" sneered Blue.
Red smirked," Exactly the reason why I beat you, not just once, but TWICE and took the title of Champion from you."
It was Blue's turn to be furious," Oh yeah? Why don't we battle right now to prove it."
"Sounds good to me! Prepare to lose."
"You guys…" Silver weakly protested, as they searched around their belts with their free hand. However, Ruby and Sapphire watched as Green walked calmly over to Red and Blue, and slapped them both across the face.
"Ouch! What the hell was that for Green!?" They said at the same time.
Green smirked," It's funny how similar you guys are. If you haven't noticed, you're in front of the ENTIRE school by the looks of it, arguing like a bunch of Mankeys."
They looked around and had slightly embarrassed looks etched on their faces. Everyone let go of the two and gave weary smiles.
"Thanks Green!" Silver chirped," We had to deal with this all morning! They-"
Gold cut in," –argued about EVERYTHING! We had to stop a couple times to give our Pokémon a rest, but somehow they would find something to argue about." He then mocked them in high pitched voices," Hey Blue! I bet I can eat more dinner rolls than you! No you can't! Hey Red! I bet you can't beat me in a fight! Bring it on! Hey Blue! I bet I can eat more shit then you! Yeah right!" He stopped and looked at Green, who was trying very hard to not laugh," See what we had to deal with?"
"Yeah, I know. We were all rivals, remember?"
Gold looked and waved when he saw Ruby staring at them," Hey Ruby! How's it going? How's Kippy?"
A few students snickered at the name.
Ruby went a shade pink," His name isn't Kippy! And I didn't name him that, Sapphire did!"
"Of course she did." Red came walking up," Ruby, it's ok that you named your starter a girly name; you don't need to hide it."
Ruby became scarlet; he didn't say anything for a while and just stood there. Then he slowly just walked up to the teacher's table and spoke to Dumbledore, pointing at them time to time.
"Nice job Red," White muttered," he's probably going to kick us off campus."
"He's usually not that sensitive though, so I doubt it." Red replied," What's wrong with him anyway? I could feel tension from him." He looked at Sapphire. White looked at her with curiosity.
She sighed," Well, we've been having…trouble…in one of our classes."
Red raised an eyebrow," Explain."
"There is a …student… whose bent set on making the lesson miserable. And I'll admit it, Ruby wasn't helping the situation."
"Why? What happened?" White asked.
"Well, on the first lesson, Ruby let his Swampert out to show everyone. However, a student insulted it and it hung him in a tree. When he came down, he tried to attack Ruby, and you guys know how that's like in the eyes of a starter or any Pokémon for that matter." Sapphire said slowly.
"Ouch! I'd hate to be him." White sympathized.
Red nodded, "What happened to the kid? Any serious injuries?"
Sapphire looked at him and said seriously," It crushed his hand. He must have really offended it, because even Ruby had to tell Swampert to let go a couple times."
"That's what he gets for insulting a Pokémon, especially one as protective as a starter." Black chimed in. Apparently, he heard the conversation and decided to join. His eyes lit up," Hey White, remember that time when I insulted your Snivy? When we first got our starters?"
White gave a giggle," You mean the time where Snivy ran around whipping your butt, and you were screaming like a girl? Of course I'll never forget that! She didn't stop until you apologized a hundred times! You kept complaining that you felt like it was sunburned!"
Black blushed a bit,"Yeah, umm, same thing in this case, but-"
Sapphire cut him off," Anyways, he still didn't learn his lesson."
White and Black had astonished looks on their faces, while Red didn't seem fazed.
"Figures," he said," trouble makers never learn. What did he do the next time?"
"He tried stealing Ruby's belt while he was asleep and with Swampert around." She said quietly.
"Is he nuts!? Especially after what happened with Swampert before?" White exclaimed.
"The kid has guts, I'll give him that." Red remarked.
Black snickered," But he lacks smarts!"
Their conversation was cut short as Dumbledore stood up to give a speech," Students, we are joined by more guests it seems. Professor Ruby has informed me that they are childhood friends of his, so please treat them with utmost kindness and listen."
"Thank you, headmaster," Ruby motioned for them to come up," These are, as you know, my friends. They've come from many regions and are experts on Pokémon themselves. I shall introduce you to them."
They single filed up onto the stage. "I don't see why we can't introduce ourselves, we're not children," grumbled Gold. Silver punched him on the shoulder, frowning ("Be nice!")
Harry stared in disbelief at the children who walked onto the stage.
"These are my friends; their names are Gold, Silver," he pointed to each person when he said their names," Diamond, Pearl, Black, White, and Green. The two morons who were about to start a battle over there are Red and Blue." He finished. He frowned, however, soon afterward, as if just realizing something. He looked at the others on the stage, who just shrugged. He was about to say something when the doors slammed opened yet again.
"Man!" said a boy striding in," it took forever to find the bathroom! Hey guys what did I miss?" His gaze drifted and pin pointed Ruby and Sapphire. "Oh! Its little Groudon and Kyogre! How's it going?"
Ruby did a face palm and Sapphire gave a sigh," Hi, Emerald…"
"Man, I was hoping he would get lost and not cause a scene, especially with those nicknames." Ruby said, annoyed.
The boy had short, slightly messy black hair and a green sweat band around his head. He wore sweats similar to Ruby's, but green instead. He had a sliver necklace with a large emerald in the middle, and matching emerald green eyes," What's wrong? You guys aren't glad to see me? I feel so neglected!"
"… and that's Emerald, one of the most annoying people to ever live." Ruby finished.
"Uh oh! Groudon's in a bad mood," Emerald taunted," better get Rayquaza!"
"Shut up! You know I could kick your ass!"
"Alright, just saying," Emerald said shrugging.
Dumbledore seemed to have been studying the entire conversation. He spoke when the two were done bickering," Professor Ruby, if I may ask, what is a battle? You mentioned it several times; I'm interested to know what a "battle" is."
Nearly all the trainers had their jaws drop when they heard this, except for Red, who kept his cool.
"I forgot that you guys don't know all that much about Pokémon," Ruby scratched his head," let's see, a battle is when two or four trainers battle with their Pokémon to make them stronger or to simply show off."
"And they are really fun and exciting too!" Silver cut in.
Dumbledore seemed to think for a bit before he spoke," Would you be interested in showing us? It would be…intriguing…to see. You could use the field out on the grounds."
The entire party's' eyes glittered with excitement; most of them urged Ruby to accept. Ruby looked over at the pleading eyes, sighing in defeat. My team could use the exercise.
"Yes, we would be delighted to."
"Excellent," Dumbledore said with a twinkle in his eye," we'll send an announcement to the students in the morning to head down there. I trust it's not too much trouble?"
"Not at all," Ruby said with a smile," We will go to our rooms if that is all." They gave a respectful bow and together, they all walked out the hall. There's going to be a lot of arguing tonight, he thought and looked at Sapphire, however, knowing them, they're going to try a double battle with me and Sapphire.
Harry
Harry watched as they walked off.
"What the-? What just happened? They just come in here and leave? What's up with that?" Ron said with food hanging out of his mouth.
"They say their friends of the Professors' and Ron, please shut your mouth, it's disgusting." Hermione snapped. Ron just grumbled.
Harry looked at them hopelessly," I don't know, but what's with the double Ruby? He came in calling them names that they didn't like, and you could tell that both Professors' were embarrassed when they came crashing in."
Ron just shrugged and kept wolfing down mountains of food. Hermione just kept reading her book (go figure). They left to the common room just to see a large announcement tacked to the wall. Harry picked it up and read aloud:
Attention students!
Professors' Ruby and Sapphire will be putting on a surprise all day tomorrow. All student classes with be cancelled-
Hermione gave a gasp of horror. Ron looked as though he could jump for joy.
-and all students will report to the Quidditch field. They will NOT have to sit in their designated House area, and can freely mingle with the other Houses if they so wish. They would appreciate it, however, if you do not stand or sit on or near the field, as that would be "hazardous" to student health. It starts at exactly nine tomorrow, so please, do not be late.
When Harry finished, he looked over at his two friends, puzzled.
Ron shrugged," What'd you think? Should we go? Sounds like everyone's going mate."
"Come on Harry, this sounds very interesting. It must be something about those creatures their teaching us in class…" Hermione said.
Ron's eyes widened," Oh no! My berry! I forgot to water it today!" He bolted up out of the common room to the bedrooms.
Hermione let out a sigh," No wonder its dying! I feel bad for that berry…" she let out a short squeak," I forgot! I haven't finished my essay!" Faster than Harry had ever seen her move, she ran into the girl's dorms.
With nothing left to do, he climbed up the stairs to the boy's dormitory and into bed. He stared at the ceiling wondering about what those two professors had in mind for tomorrow. It must've been really big if all classes were cancelled for the day. Eventually, he drifted into sleep.
Ruby
It was a nut house. There were problems from A to Z. Having only ONE room for the girls and ONE room of guys was a bad idea. Sure it sounded good at first, but that was before Red, Blue, AND Emerald came into the equation. Red and Blue argued about EVERYTHING like Gold said, mainly because Blue was constantly provoking Red, like a little kid. This time, believe it or not, they were arguing over who took each other pajamas, and were trying to strangle each other. Gold and Pearl fought to keep them apart, but finally gave up, and laid on their beds with ear plugs. Ruby could practically feel tick marks popping up. Emerald wasn't helping either and just sat on his bed eating popcorn watching them. Great, he thought, the girls are probably talking and painting each other's toe nails or something, while we're preparing for World War III. Lucky girls, I wish Sapphire was here…wait? What?! What am I thinking?!
Ruby felt his cheeks burning, and Blue just so happened to be looking that direction. His worst fears were realized when he began smirking. Emerald caught on too and looked over," What's wrong, Ruby? Is it a bit hot in here? My my, I don't think it's warm, if anything, it's a bit chilly."
Ruby cheeks flared up even more," It's-s not that!" Emerald's knowing smile deepened. Ruby mentally cursed himself, he practically gave it away with that sudden, stuttered filled, outburst.
Emerald cleared his throat and Pearl, Red, Blue, and Gold looked up interested, two pulling out their ear plugs, "Seems Ruby's got something in his mind, because I'm sure he isn't hot. Could it be that he's thinking of…"
Pearl saw this and quickly came to his defense," It's probably because he's still wearing his sweats. He hasn't changed like most of us," he shot a look at Blue and Red, "he's probably a bit warm in here to him."
Emerald's smile fell and he laid on his bed. Ruby mumbled thanks over to Pearl. He smiled," Don't mention it. Why does he do that though?"
"I think he's just messing with me, but sometimes it gets annoying. I also think he has a bit of a crush on Sapphire himself, he just won't admit it." Ruby explained. He looked at the boy with light pink eyes and short light black hair. (Lol, best description ever!)
Ruby pulled on his pajamas. Pearl stayed quiet until he brought up a completely different subject," Ha ha, look at our pajamas. Makes us look like little kids." Ruby looked around and realized he was right: Red had red ones (didn't see that one coming) with Charizards flying around, Blue had blue ones with a Blastoise on an island, Gold's were multicolored with a Ho-oh flying over the rainbow, Pearl's were light pink with Palkia flying in space, Black had midnight black ones with thunderstorms and Zekrom, Emerald's had deep green ones with a shadow of Rayquaza, and finally, Ruby looked down to see his ruby red pajamas with volcanoes, lava, and Groudon.
He gave a laugh," I guess you right; we do look like we're kids."
"Yeah, extremely good looking kids," Black said while flexing his arms.
Pearl, Gold, and Ruby began cracking up. Ruby struggled to speak," Who's battling tomorrow anyways?"
They all went silent and looked around. "Obviously, you and Sapphire," Gold said," you two are the ones they trust most. I say double battle, Ruby and Sapphire versus…"
"…" Emerald looked up," You and Silver."
"WHAT?!" exclaimed Red and Blue," who made you the judge?"
He turned to them," Think about it, you two would fight each other, Black, White, Diamond, and Pearl are exhausted from the travel, and those two are easier to battle with and their Pokémon are calmer too."
The two sighed in defeat and crawled into bed. Pearl and Black nodded with Emerald's answer.
"Well, we better get to bed, big day ahead of us tomorrow." Gold said, with a hint of sadness. Ruby knew how he felt; he wasn't too excited to fight his friend in front of a crowd of people in the morning.
"Don't worry, it won't be that bad. I doubt many will come," he reassured.
Gold nodded," Yeah after all, it's just for fun, right?"
Ruby gave him a smile," Yeah."
Ruby fell asleep as he plotted his strategy to win.
Alright! Chapter done an out! Next chapter is the surprise. Also, if you guys have any ideas for Pokémon teams for Gold and Silver, I would love if you guys sent me some those, excluding starters and legendary's. Ruby's team is already taken; a wonderful reviewer sent me great ideas. I also have Sapphire's team decided too. Thanks for reading! Review if you feel like it!
