Yo! I'm LovelyLily13! Previously on PMD: Explorers of Destiny:

"Let's make this fun. Instead of the original plan, we'll battle to see who'll finish this mission!"

Hitomi looked at Kami. "Can we actually battle another rescue team?"

Kami nodded. "As long as it's a challenge."

Hitomi nodded. "We except your stupid challenge! But my team gets first move!"

Crusher looked at her. "Why?"

Hitomi looked back. "Why what?"

They all anime fell. The three boys on her team sighed. "She's so dense."

A fiery aura formed around her. The boys flinched as their leader suddenly looked really big, despite being the smallest of the group.

"WHO ARE YOU CALLING DENSE!" Zozo and Kami hid behind P-Chan.

"H-hey Dudette. Team Disaster would like t-to know why we should go first."

She looked back at the sweatdropping team. They nodded cautiously. She suddenly brightened and somehow looked cuter.

"Ok! The rule is 'Ladies first'. Of course, since I'm a girl, and I'm the leader of this Team, that should give us automatic right to go first." T

hey nodded, realizing how scary she could be when mad, the boys reluctantly agreed to Hitomi's statement. The two teams got into fighting position. All looking each other straight in the eye.


Hitomi nodded at Zozo. They both jumped and fired two Shadow Balls. They flipped before smacking the Shadow Balls with their tails, making the moves go faster. Perditus and Crash dodged. The attacks hit Lucius and Crusher. Crusher was obviously was pissed at this. He lifted his beam, struggling somewhat, and slammed it where Hitomi was. She jumped and landed on the beam. Hitomi shook her head and sat on the beam as Crusher struggled to lift it.

"Don't tell me this is the best you got?"

Crusher glared at her. "Don't even think I'm afraid to hit you because you're a cute girl! Take this! Rock Smash!" She dodged and used Bite; somehow she ended up biting his head. Crusher screamed. "She's got my head! Get her off me! Get her off me! Get her off me!" He started running around, the silver-pink Eevee hanging on!

Everyone sweatdropped as they watched him run around. Hitomi noticed he was about to hit a tree. She jumped off of him and fired a Shadow Ball. The attack hit and when he hit the tree, he fainted.

"One down!" She was suddenly hit by a Dragon Rage! Her silver-pink fur was slightly charred. She coughed up a little smoke.

Kami glared at Lucius. "How dare you use a sneak attack against Hitomi-Dear…" He growled silently.

Lucius sweatdropped. "Electro Ball!"

The attack hit Lucius. He growled. "Taste my Dragon Claw!"

Kami dodged. "I know you're a dragon-type, so you're bad against steel." He chuckled evilly.

Lucius scoffed. "Doesn't matter, you aren't a steel type Pokémon."

Kami shook his head. He jumped, his tail suddenly turning into steel. "Iron Tail!"

Just as Lucius was about to dodge, he was slammed and instantly fainted. Hitomi ran up to Kami.

"Wow! Kami I didn't know you were so strong!" She complimented.

Kami felt his face heat up. "Anything to impress you, Hitomi-Dear!" He chuckled shyly.

She smiled. Zozo got in between the two. "Don't make me gag! And stop calling her Hitomi-Dear!"

Kami folded his arms. "You don't decide on what people can call her! She doesn't mind when I call her that so buzz off!"

Hitomi sighed. "Looks like it's just you and me P-Chan."

P-Chan nodded. They faced Perditus. "Alright Dudette, ladies first!" P-Chan offered.

Hitomi nodded. "Mercury Ball!" She shot a Shadow Ball, but then it became frozen in ice but continued on. It landed a direct hit.

P-Chan snorted out flames. "Awesome move! You used Mercury to freeze it didn't you?" Hitomi nodded. "That is so rad! Now it's my turn!" He began to stomp his feet until a large cloud of dust engulfed him. He suddenly came out in what looked like a fire version of Aqua Jet. "Flame Charge!" He charged into Perditus, he took some serious damage being part steel-type.

He suddenly closed up. "Drill Run!" He spun and charged toward them.

P-Chan dodged but for some reason, Hitomi couldn't. She let out a scream, causing Perditus to stop and cover his ears. Hitomi suddenly stopped. "What happened to you?" She asked.

Perditus shouted. "You used Echoed Voice you moron!"

"Razor Shell!" It was a female Dewott, and she landed a good hit. "How dare you insult Hitomi-san like that!" An Oshawott walked next to her.

Hitomi and Kami smiled. "Dewdrop and Hajime!"

They smiled. Dewdrop walked up to them. "How's the happy couple?"

The two sweatdropped and blushed. Zozo squeezed in between the two. "They aren't a couple!"

Dewdrop glared. "Well then I'm guessing you're Hitomi-san's boyfriend then?"

Zozo blushed. "No!"

Dewdrop nodded. "Then butt out!"

Perditus cleared his throat. "We're in the middle of a battle here!"

Hitomi smiled. "Right! You two want to join?"

The two nodded. They heard a sharp whistle. The group looked in the direction of the noise. It was Crash.

Hitomi growled. "I'll take care of him. You guys battle Perditus."

They nodded. Crash scoffed. "You're their leader? You're the smallest, and you're a girl…" He stated quietly.

A vein popped on Dewdrop's and Hitomi's head. "What's that supposed to mean!" They both barked.

Crash shrugged. He started a double Razor Shell. Hitomi dodging clumsily. She shot a Shadow Ball! She growled at the fact that she missed.

Crash looked to the side. "It seems we're the only ones that are left standing."

Hitomi looked to the side. Sure enough, everyone had fainted, including Perditus. Hitomi sweatdropped. 'Good thing Kami bought those reviver seeds the other day.' She was suddenly hit by a Water Pulse. She stood. "That hurt you meanie! But you wanna play that way? Fine!"

She pounced on him like she would do to Kami, and sent them rolling. The results were different. Crash was the one on top. He lifted himself slightly. He smirked.

"It's too bad that you're my enemy. You're my type." She felt herself blush. 'He's water and I'm a normal-type. But I get this feeling he means that in a different way.' She shot a Shadow Ball. "That's too bad! You aren't my type! Unless I was to find a water stone…" She trailed off.

(A/N: Hitomi, Hitomi, Hitomi. Tsk, tsk, tsk. You cute, innocent, little moron.)

Crash chuckled. "Not what I meant." He started slashing at her with his two scalchops. Our petite little buddy was dodging clumsily once again. She gave him an Echoed Voice, causing him to put a distance.

Hitomi tilted her head cutely, as she was confused. "Then what did you mean."

Crash smirked and turned his head to the side. "You got that cute and clueless thing working for you," Hitomi blushed, good thing her fur was pink. "I like girls like that."

She shivered. Her left ear lowered, giving her an innocent and childlike look. "What happened to being the guy who doesn't talk much?"

Crash sighed. "You're a dense one aren't you?"

Hitomi sweatdropped and sighed. "I get that a lot." Then a dark aura surrounded her. "And I don't like hearing it!" She charged toward Crash and bit him, hard.

"Ow!" She released a Jupiter attack. "You're tough one aren't you?" He released a Water Pulse toward her. She was soaking wet. She shook herself dry.

"I'm getting tired of that!"

He shot a Blizzard at her. She dodged. She pounced on him. "Attract!" She winked and jumped off.

Hearts flew into Crash's eyes. "Now that I have a better look at you, you're much cuter than I thought!"

Hitomi giggled cutely. "So you wouldn't mind if I defeated you right?"

Crash shook his head. "Not at all!"

She fired a Shadow Ball. Crash made no effort to dodge. She then finished it with Echoed Voice. She trotted over to the fainted P-Chan and took his bag. She took out all the reviver seeds. She heard a groan. She looked in Crash's direction. He was struggling to get up. Hitomi counted the seeds.

She took three and one Oran Berry and gave them to Crash. "My friends won against Perditus and I won against you. We had a deal so-"

She was cut off by Crash kissing her on the cheek. Hitomi's blush was pinker than her fur. "You're much cuter when you're not talking."

Hitomi blushed harder. Crash chuckled. "Sh-shut up and eat your Oran Berry!" She walked over to her friends and put the seeds in their mouths.

Last were Zozo and Kami. Their eyes fluttered opened. Hitomi sighed in relief before running in circles around them. "You're alright! You're alright! You're alright!"

She pounced on Kami. "I was especially worried about you Kami! You looked like you were taking the most damage from his ground attacks!" He blushed.

Dewdrop squealed at the scene. Zozo scoffed. Hitomi noticed this. "What's wrong, Zozo?"

He sweatdropped and looked to the side. "Nothing." He muttered. Something clicked in Hitomi's thick head.

"I get it!" She pounced on Zozo and sent them rolling. Zozo was on top. "Get what?" Hitomi blushed slightly before flipping them so that she was on top. "You're jealous of Kami."

Zozo scoffed as Hitomi removed herself. "As if!" Zozo studied Kami before flipping in the air and turning into him. He started to march around. "I'm a Pikachu! My name is Kaminari! I'm desperately head-over-heals for the leader of Team Soul: Hitomi. However, I think Hitomi-Dear is much too dense realize my feelings for her. Either that or she just likes that charming Zorua, Zozo, more than me. A fact which we all know is true!"

Kami glared. "Why you…" Zozo changed back and snickered. Kami lunged for him. Zozo screamed and dodged him. He ran from Kami! "Get back here and take back what you said!" Zozo stuck his tongue out. A vein popped on Kami's head. "You little brat!" He got on all fours so he could move faster.

P-Chan, Dewdrop, and Hajime sighed. Hitomi tilted her head and looked at Dewdrop. "I don't get it. Kami doesn't wear heels for me. So how could he 'head-over-heels' for me?"

Dewdrop sweatdropped before smiling and laughing. "That cute and clueless act doesn't seize to amaze me, Hitomi-san!"

P-Chan sweatdropped. "Yeah…act."

Hitomi looked into space. "Cute and clueless… That's the same thing Crash said to me!"

Dewdrop looked at the male Dewott. "Him?"

Hitomi nodded. "Yeah, him! He said he likes girls like that. But I'm not all that sure what he meant."

Hajime sweatdropped. "Oh boy…'Cute and clueless' is a bit of an understatement. You're a little dense."

Hitomi glared. "I'm what?" She boomed.

Hajime squeaked and hid behind his sister. "Adorable! I said you're adorable!" Hitomi smiled. "Oh. Okay then! You're adorable too!"

Hajime exhaled. P-Chan looked at Hitomi. "We should look for Seeker. Don't 'cha think, Dudette?" Hitomi nodded.

She looked at Hajime and Dewdrop. "You wanna join?"

Sparkles flew into Hajime's eyes. "Help you catch a criminal? Yeah!"

Dewdrop picked him up. "Oh no! You have curfew, little brother."

Hajime pouted. "But-but!" She shook her head. "No buts! You know what happens when you're late to dinner with Mom."

Hajime squirmed. "She'll understand! Come on!"

Dewdrop walked away and waved over her shoulder. "Maybe next time! See you guys later!"

They waved. Well, P-Chan and Hitomi did. Kami was still chasing Zozo, but they both managed to shout bye.

"The 'Discipline Pokémon' is the perfect term for her." Hitomi and P-Chan walked away. Hitomi stopped. "Guys, hurry up, or we'll leave you!" She called.

The boys stopped. Kami shot a glare toward Zozo. "I'll deal with you later." He growled.

They looked at Hitomi and P-Chan. "Hey wait for us guys!" They called.


Hitomi and P-Chan walked ahead of Kami and Zozo. P-Chan had to ask. "Dudette?" She looked at him. "What does it mean to love someone?"

Hitomi looked forward, with a thoughtful expression. "Well… There's more than one way to love someone. Which way do you mean?"

P-Chan blushed. "To be in love."

Hitomi squealed. "Really? Oh that's so cute! Who is she?"

P-Chan blushed. He looked back to make sure Kami and Zozo weren't listening. Thankfully, they were arguing over something.

"Well… She's an Emolga."

Hitomi blinked. "I think I've heard of that Pokémon!"

She retrieved her Pokédex from her fluffy collar. She typed something in. "Emolga, the Sky Squirrel Pokémon. Emolga lives in trees and uses its cape-like membrane to glide through the air." Hitomi squealed.

"OMA! That is the most adorable Pokémon I've ever seen!" Hitomi squealed.

P-Chan shushed her as she caught Zozo's attention. "Ha! You can't keep your eyes off her if your life depended on it!" Kami scoffed.

They got into another argument. P-Chan looked at her. "Her name is Emi. By the way, you never answered my question."

Hitomi looked at him. "Oh, right! What does it mean to be in love…? You asked the right person, err… Pokémon! I know all about love!" She announced proudly.

P-Chan sweatdropped. "Ya don't say…?"

Hitomi nodded eagerly. "*Ahem!* To be in love with someone means that you like them way more than a friend. And you know that you want to be with that person um… Pokémon forever! You always feel a spark when you touch or kiss. Although with an Electric-type I'd probably hope for a really good feeling instead of an actual spark. But you'll never know until you actually tell them your feelings." She explained.

P-Chan nodded. "Thanks. You're a real pal!"

She smiled. "No problem P-Chan. Do you plan on telling Emi soon?"

P-Chan blushed. "I was hoping you could talk to her. You know, since you're a girl."

Hitomi bounced up and down. "Ooh! When can I meet her?"

P-Chan sweatdropped. "I dunno. Maybe tomorrow?"

Hitomi nodded. "Okay! I can't wait to meet her!" She ran around in circles around him, chanting; I can't wait! Over and over. She then began to bounce and walk.

Kami and Zozo walked up P-Chan. "Hey what's up with Hitomi-Dear?" Kami asked.

Zozo nodded. "Yeah. She only bounces like that when she's really excited."

P-Chan wasn't about be smothered in teases. "Why don't we focus on getting Zozo's revenge?" The boys nodded and bounded after Hitomi.


Ooooohhhh! P-Chan has a girlfriend! Well… sort of. Anyway, I can't wait to write the next chappie! I hope you liked this one! Oh yeah! OMA means 'Oh my Arceus!' You know, instead of 'Oh my God?' Yeah… Okay then. ~Meow!~ *Does peace sign before cute kitty pose*
