I am so sorry for the long wait! Please forgive me!
Amy, Isaac, and Terri were waiting at the Pokemon Center for Rose,
"I'm so far behind!" Amy whined, "Where is she?!"
"Rose has been taking a long time…" said Terri,
"She's probably flirting with every good looking guy she passed by!" said Isaac, already lost his patience.
"Yoo Hoo! I'm back!" Roee announced as she walked in with her hands behind her back,
"About time! We've been waiting for ages! You should keep your word when you said you'd be back in 15 minutes!" Isaac scolded,
"Heh, heh….sorry! I mean, there were these really cute guys-"
"Don't even start!" Isaac stopped her from continuing.
"So Rose, what's this big surprise you were so excited about?" Terri asked and Rose grinned,
"Look at THIS!" Rose pulled her hands from behind her back and showed her friends 4 different poke'balls.
"Ooooohhhh…" The three leaned in to get a closer look.
"Ladies and gents! May I present: The fast ball! The level ball! The friend ball! And no one touches this because it's mine! The LOVE BALL!" Rose rubbed her cheek against the pink Poke'ball with a heart on it.
"Ok…where did you get them?" Isaac asked,
"From a Poke'ball maker. I picked one out for each of you. Though this love ball is mine! He made them out of apricorns!"
Isaac immediately reached for one of them,
"I call this fast ball," he said and puts it away,
"Friend…I'll take the friend ball!" said Amy and reached for that one,
"I guess I'll have the level ball," said Terri and took the last one.
"Alright, now that we're done with that LETS GO! COME ON!" Isaac shouted which immediately got them going.
It was long day's walk, but long enough. Amy was complaining about them going too slow yet at the same time, complaining on how hot it is. In which, was driving Isaac crazy.
"We're under the shades of trees! How are you getting hot if the sun rays aren't even getting through?!" Isaac exclaimed,
"I'm having a bad day okay? No! Make that a bad journey! I've fallen way behind and I'm losing Pokemon wherever I go!" Amy yelled back. They stopped walking when the two cousins glared at each other.
"Um, guys, maybe-"
"STAY OUT OF THIS!" the two shouted at Terri who immediately backed off. Isaac took Togepi off his shoulder and handed it to Rose, then looked back at Amy,
"It's not always about you Amy!"
"I never said it was!"
"Then quit acting like a 5 year old with a tantrum!"
"Why don't you stop acting like a 30 year old mother?!"
"Guys…" Rose wanted to stop them but they're both scary when they're really angry.
"I don't even know why I'm even here with you!" Isaac shouted,
"That makes two of us!"
"Oh! I know, maybe because I was actually worried that you'll get yourself in a lot of trouble! Of course, you did anyway! Guess I'm not even needed here!"
"Maybe so! I don't know what your problem is but you sure know how to get someone angry!"
"Oh really? I should say the same thing about you! And here's my problem: She's under 4 feet, has an anger management problem, and is too lazy to even fix her hair!"
"Oh really?! If you're talking about me, you forgot to mention how I'm a guy magnet!"
"That's not my point! Look! I only came on this journey to get some electric Pokemon! But apparently, all you care about it you, you, you, and you!"
"Guys…" Rose really wanted this to stop now.
"NOT TRUE!"
"So true!"
"Guys!" Rose raised her voice a bit; maybe they didn't hear her before.
"JERK!"
"IDIOT!"
"Fun-Sucker!"
"Dim-wit!"
"Perfectionist!"
"Selfish brat!"
Before anything else could be said, Togepi started crying. Isaac's immediate reaction was to try and comfort Togepi.
"…Maybe we need a break," Terri suggested.
Isaac and Amy sat away from each other with their backs facing each other. Rose, Terri and their Pokemon sat between them. Only Pikachu was with Amy and Togepi was with Isaac.
"Maybe the heat was effecting them," said Terri,
"Probably, both have been pretty stressed though. Amy with her journey and Isaac with Togepi," said Rose and Terri nodded in agreement.
Suddenly, a thunderbolt hit their little break scaring some Pokemon and their trainers. Butterfree flew off in fright,
"Ah! Butterfree!" Amy shouted and ran after her,
"AMY!" Rose called but Amy kept running.
Another thunderbolt hit.
"Who's doing that?!" Terri exclaimed,
"No idea! Rose! Sent out a rock Pokemon!" Isaac shouted,
"Oh! Right! Go Onix!" Rose sends out Onix, who had a good view of the area,
"Attack whoever's doing this!" Rose shouted. Thunderbolt and thundershock was attacking left and right.
They heard Onix roar and the next thing they heard was a boy screaming and a couple of Pokemon cries. The electric attacks stopped and they looked over to where Onix was. By a rock, was a dirty blonde hair boy with his Magnemite and Raichu. The boy's hair was short, and so was the boy for that matter. He was roughly Terri's height. The boy stood up and dusted his yellow shirt with a red vest on and then his blue shorts.
"Hey! What was that for?!" the boy demanded,
"Uh…what was what for?" Amy asked when she ran back after getting her Butterfree back,
"Oh I'm so sorry! I don't know what I did but did I did something to upset someone was dashing and handsome as you, why, I'd-" Isaac grabbed Rose's ponytail and started pulling her away as Rose continues to ramble,
"Yeah, you apologize to a complete stranger but do I ever get an apology? No!"
The boy stomped up to them,
"You let that Mareep get away!" the boy exclaimed,
"Mareep?" Amy pulled out her dex to look it up,
"Yes! A Mareep! I was battling it until that giant rock snake decides to butt in!"
"Well sor-ry! We were getting attacked too!" Isaac argued. The two then gave each other glares,
"Um, not to interrupt, but why were you after that Mareep…um you're name is…?" Terri asked,
"I'm Kevin! Electric Pokemon gym leader in-training!" said Kevin proudly,
"Rai! Rai!"
"Magnemiteeeee!"
His Pokemon added.
You could now see fire burning in Isaac's eyes,
"Excuse me?! The only good electric Pokemon trainer that stands a chance to become an electric gym leader is ME!" said Isaac pointing at himself,
"Yeah right! I bet even you can't catch that Mareep!"
"It's a sheep! Like it's going to be that hard to catch!"
"If that were true, I would've gotten it by now!"
"You're just not as good as me, you little twerp!"
"WHAT DID YOU CALL ME, SPIKY?!"
"SPIKY?! NOW YOU'RE DEAD!"
"Pika…"
"I know Pikachu, and I thought my fight was Isaac was bad," said Amy as she and the others watch them fight.
"There's only one way to settle this!" said Kevin,
"Agreed!" said Isaac taking out his Poke'ball,
"BATTLE!"
"I knew this was going to happen…" said Amy with a sweat drop,
"Pika…"
"Wow! Isaac's going to battle!" said Terri, excited.
"Go Kevin!" Rose cheered and Isaac grew an anime vein,
"Who's side are you one?!" he demanded,
"Uh…"
"Don't answer that!"
The group moved out to an open area so they have more room to battle. Terri was judge,
"It's a battle between Kevin and Isaac! Only one Pokemon will be used, no time limit! Let the battle begin!" Terri announced,
"Go get'em Raichu!"
"Rai!"
"Cool…" said Amy in awe and took out her dex again to look up Raichu to refresh her memory.
"Go Jolteon!" Isaac threw his Poke'ball,
"Jolt!"
The battle then began!
"Raichu! Thundershock!"
"Dodge! Use pin missile!"
Jolteon quickly got out of the way and launched a fury of pin missiles.
"Now Jolteon! Thunderbolt!"
"Thunderbolt too Raichu!"
The two attacks stopped each other,
"Quick attack!" Raichu suddenly hit Jolteon surprising Isaac.
"Now! Iron Tail!"
Isaac got another surprise by the Raichu's fast movement and Jolteon's blow to the head.
"What are you doing Isaac?!" Amy exclaimed,
"For a gym leader, you sure don't know your way with electric Pokemon," said Kevin and smirked,
"H-How did -?"
"Oh please! Like I don't know my gym leaders! Get'em Raichu!"
"Rai! Rai!"
"Jolteon! Thunder!"
"Use Agility to dodge! Now Raichu! Use Shock Wave!"
"Look out Jolteon!"
"Please! Don't you know that Shock Wave can't miss?"
"What?"
Raichu attack Jolteon with a powerful shock wave but it didn't seem to have fazed Jolteon,
"And I thought I didn't know anything about electric Pokemon! Jolteon has the ability called Volt Absorb!" said Isaac, gloating. Kevin lightly smacks himself,
"Ah! I forgot!"
"Go Jolteon! Attack! Use Tackle!"
"Gr…Raichu! Hold your position! Attack with Iron Tail!"
When Jolteon got close enough, Raichu used its long tail and smacks Jolteon.
"Isaac! Come on! You can do better than that!" Amy shouted from the side.
"Yeah right! This guy grew up raising water Pokemon! This is probably his first Pokemon battle using electric Pokemon!" said Kevin and Isaac growled under his breath, but he didn't give any commands.
"Isaac!" Amy shouted again.
"Give it up, Isaac. You don't belong out on a journey to become an electric gym leader! You already are a gym leader! You should just stick with what you have because that's what you're good at!" Kevin pointed.
Isaac stared at Jolteon, and old memories started coming back against his will.
"That's all you're ever good at! Staying here and be a great water gym leader!"
"Just stick with water Pokemon, they're great! You don't even have to go anywhere to get stronger!"
"Don't be so stubborn! You're a gym leader now, no need to dream anymore!"
"I said my decision is final! I will become an electric gym leader someday!" said Isaac proudly, pointing to himself.
"I can't do it…"
"Isaac?" Rose asked worriedly,
"I can't…"
"Isaac!" Amy exclaimed.
"Raichu! Finish this! Dynamic Punch!"
"J-Jolteon!"
Jolteon took a hard hit and hit the ground.
"Jolteon!" Isaac exclaimed again.
"Jolteon is unable to battle! Kevin and his Raichu are the winners!" Terri announced.
"Awesome Raichu, return…Isaac, I actually expected more than that from you. Oh well," said Kevin and started walking away.
"Hey! Wait! Hold it! I'm battling you now!" Amy shouted after him,
"I wasted enough time already, I need to catch that Mareep!" said Kevin and ran off.
"Hey! Get back here!" Amy shouted after him.
"Isaac?" Rose asked with concern.
The group headed over to the Pokemon Center, with Isaac pretty upset over what happened. He didn't want to talk about it either with his complete silence.
"Do you think he chocked?" Rose asked,
"Maybe he got nervous after that guy was saying all this stuff about him," said Amy. The two were whispering to each other while walking ahead of Isaac,
"Um, you know that he can probably still hear you," said Terri who was ahead of Isaac but behind the girls. Unlike usual, Isaac didn't snap back. He just continued walking while holding his Togepi close to him.
They all arrived at a Pokemon Center and they all gave their Pokemon to Nurse Joy. While waiting they all sat down at a table to chat.
"Here's your Pokemon," said Nurse Joy and Amy got up from her seat to pick up everyone's Pokemon after Nurse Joy was done checking on them.
"Thanks, Nurse Joy. Oh, is my friend's Jolteon okay?" Amy asked,
"The Jolteon is fine," said Nurse Joy and added her reassuring smile.
"Oh thank you. It was in a pretty rough battle. So much for battling over a Mareep," said Amy and was about to leave when Nurse Joy stopped her,
"Wait, did you say a Mareep? The wild one around here?" Joy asked and Amy nodded,
"Yeah, that's the one this trainer was trying to get," said Amy and Nurse Joy looked frustrated,
"That Mareep again? I feel so bad for it but someone has to stop the trouble that the Mareep is causing," said Joy,
"What trouble and what do you mean feel bad for it?" Amy asked with curiosity,
"Well…that Mareep isn't completely wild. Not long ago, this trainer released the Mareep, leaving it out in the wild. The Mareep has a yellow bow attacked to its tail. The poor Mareep is outraged for being left out in the wild. So it attacks random people, at least that's what people have been saying. I think the poor Pokemon is only angered when it sees trainers and their Pokemon so happy together. One trainer, Kevin, has been trying to capture this Mareep himself. He started doing so a couple of days ago but no luck so far," Nurse Joy explained. Amy's face grew worried,
"The trainer…just left the Pokemon? What trainer would do that?" Amy asked out loud. Isaac lifted his head after he heard the whole story. He went to get a drink but he stood by the water fountain to listen in. A small sparkle was seen in Isaac's eyes.
The morning, everyone was getting ready to leave,
"Wait, we can't leave today!" said Terri and everyone turned to face him,
"Why?" Rose asked,
"The news said there's going to be a thunderstorm today. We can't go out there unless we know there's shelter whenever the thunderstorm actually arrives," Terri explained. Rose looked out the window,
"Dark clouds are forming," she said,
"Aw! I'll never reach my next gym!" Amy almost wailed.
"…Hey, where's Isaac?" Rose asked,
"In his room still I think. He told me to bring Togepi down though," said Terri holding Isaac's Togepi in his arms.
"That's weird, Isaac's usually the first one up and telling us to go besides Amy," said Rose,
"Maybe that loss really got to head," said Amy,
"I'll go check on him," said Terri and handed Togepi to Amy.
Terri ran upstairs to the bedrooms of the Pokemon Center and opened up the door only to find the room bare.
"Isaac?" Terri walked around to make sure Isaac isn't hiding somewhere. Then he spotted something on the desk and picked it up.
I'm going out to fix something. Don't leave without me, I'll be back. Make sure Togepi is watched at all times.
-Isaac
"Uh oh…" said Terri and ran downstairs to tell the girls.
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Isaac was walking around the woods and the open grass field he passed by. Just where was that Mareep? Isaac continued to walk around until he spotted an orb in the air. He slowly crawled his way to it and looked behind the bush the orb was hiding behind and saw the Mareep sleeping! Isaac couldn't believe his luck! He reached out for Mareep when suddenly he was stuck by lightning! Make that a thunderbolt!
"Ow…" Isaac fell over on his back.
"You again?!" That voice…it was Kevin! Isaac also heard a cry, a sheep cry, it was the Mareep. Isaac sat back up and almost got struck by another electric attack. Mareep was battling Kevin's Raichu. The two looked really pumped up with sparks flying everywhere.
"Hey! Back off! I found Mareep first!" Isaac exclaimed,
"Did not! Now butt out! Go Raichu! Mega Punch!"
The Mareep jumped out of the way and launched a Shock Wave attack with a cry. Then, it charged and attacked with Iron Tail.
"Ah! Raichu! Come on! You can do it! Mega Kick!"
Mareep didn't even let Raichu get near when it launched a Swift attack, knocking Raichu back.
Isaac stared and watched the battle,
"The trainer that left this Mareep must've taught it a lot of moves. Why would someone leave a pokemon as good as this?" Isaac asked himself.
Its noon already, where is he?" Amy asked impatiently as she kept tapping the table she sat at,
"I'm very worried…" said Rose who proved her point when she hasn't flirted with a single boy all day.
"Isaac can take care of himself, I just hope he gets back soon before his Togepi throws a fit that 'Mommy' isn't here," said Terri who was the one holding Togepi as it slept. Just then, Kevin ran into the center and straight to Nurse Joy,
"Looks like he lost against that Mareep," said Terri. The three turned towards Kevin as he gave his Poke'ball to Nurse Joy,
"Hey! Kevin! Have you seen Isaac on your way here?!" Amy asked, shouting across the room. Kevin notices her and walked towards them,
"Yeah, I saw him, he's out there looking for that Mareep!" said Kevin who sounded pretty annoyed about that.
"He's okay right?" Rose asked worriedly,
"He looked fine when I saw him," said Kevin and Rose sighed in relief.
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Isaac was snooping around on the grass, looking for that Mareep that ran away after beating up Kevin's Raichu. His only concern it the amount of time he had left. The sun looked liked it was ready to set so it was past noon. Isaac thought he'd get the Mareep by now so he didn't bring any lunch…
It started getting dark and Isaac looked up,
"Clouds?" he asked out loud. Isaac broke into a run; a storm might be coming and he needed to catch that Mareep now!
Speaking of the Mareep, the Mareep was eating some berries off a bush and minding its own business. Suddenly, Isaac appeared from behind Mareep but he kept going and hits a tree. Mareep only continued eating, ignoring him.
"Ow…" Isaac rubbed his head, "I didn't think the hill was that steep!"
Mareep only continued chewing even knowing that a trainer was right behind him.
Isaac stood back up,
"Hey! Mareep! I challenge you to a battle! What am I doing? I'm a challenging a Pokemon! I should just go ahead and battle! Go Jolteon!"
"Jolt!"
Mareep only continued to ignore Isaac and his Jolteon. Mareep started to walk away.
"Hey! Come back here! Jolteon! Pin Missile!"
Mareep turned around and stopped the Pin Missile with thundershock.
"Gr…Jolteon! Thunder go!"
Mareep countered it with its own Thunder attack. The attack made them all fall back a bit. Isaac stood back up after he fell and was about to shout another attack when he heard thunder, actual thunder in the sky.
"Oh no…please not now," Isaac said out loud when he looked up at the dark cloud-covered sky.
"Jolteon! Return!" Isaac immediately recalled his Pokemon but before he could do anything else, lightning struck and luckily, it only struck a tree. But then the tree was on fire and it started to fall. Isaac looked from the tree to the Mareep and did the first thing that came to his mind.
Isaac quickly ran and grabbed the sheep Pokemon and shoved them both away from the spot. But what Isaac didn't realize was that Isaac shoved them both off a cliff and they went tumbling down between trees.
Rose couldn't stay still, she kept moving and is now pacing,
"It's pouring out there now," said Rose when she looked outside,
"Isaac's tough, he can take care of himself," said Terri. Amy and Pikachu were currently feeding Togepi. Apparently, food and nap time is the only thing keeping Togepi from crying for 'Mommy.'
"But even Isaac isn't so irresponsible. He should no better than to be out there in a forest with a lot of tall trees or even on open areas in a storm like this," Amy pointed out,
"Even so! I'm worried!" Rose almost shrieked,
"Calm down, we're all worried but you have to give Isaac more credit," said Terri and puts a hand on Rose's shoulder. Rose sighed, trusting and believing in Isaac was the only thing she can do at the moment.
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Isaac groaned as he sat up, rubbing his head. The first thing Isaac realized was that he had a huge headache and he's soaking wet from the pouring rain. Isaac groaned again he started to stand up. He looked around and patted his belt to make sure all his Poke'balls are there. When Isaac looked around, he spotted wool and ran over to see Mareep unconscious. Isaac looked around some more, he had to find shelter. He had to do a bit of searching while staying near Mareep and he finally spotted a large tree with a hole in the trunk big enough for Isaac and Mareep.
"It's better than staying out here," said Isaac to himself. It's still going to be dangerous being inside of a tree but it's better than being outside it. Isaac went to Mareep and tried to figure out how to carry a sheep. He shrugged and carried Mareep like a piggyback ride and struggled his way over to tree and took shelter in it. Isaac went back out to find that bag he brought with him and when he finally found it, he ran back to Mareep.
"Okay, let's see…no serious injuries…" said Isaac to himself as he looks over Mareep. Isaac pulled out some potions from his bag and started to fix up Mareep. He took out some bandages and wrapped some around Mareep's left leg and some on the tail.
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Some time later, Mareep woke up and immediately went on all fours. When Mareep spotted Isaac right next to it, Mareep bolted.
"Oh no you don't! You're not going anywhere in this storm!" Isaac grabbed Mareep by the tail and Mareep unleashed a thunderbolt through the tail but Isaac didn't let go.
"You're a stubborn as me! You think I didn't know you would try and run away?" Isaac asked and Mareep turned around as Isaac pulled Mareep back. That's when Mareep realized Isaac was wearing rubber gloves.
"Listen Mareep! We're in a storm! Besides the fact that you are an electric Pokemon, it's not exactly the safest thing to go out there! Now, I won't try to catch you now, and after fixing you up, I thought I deserve some credit!" said Isaac who sounded like he scolding a child. Then again, he always has taken care of Togepi; parenting must be rubbing off on him. Mareep stared at Isaac who stared back. Mareep looked at the bandaging Isaac did and based on how strong Mareep feels, Isaac must've healed him somehow. Mareep stayed quiet and lied down to get some sleep. Isaac did the same,
"You know, we're a lot alike. We're both stubborn and unafraid. But because of that we do stupid things. Just because your trainer left you doesn't mean you should go around causing trouble. Though I don't blame you, I never had long-time friends when I was younger. I admit it; I was a brat when I was younger so I never had friends that lasted longer than a couple of weeks. So I've always been alone and because of that, I cause trouble to get attention. After some time, I learn it's really not worth it. You just need to find someone that you can trust. Some people say I'm mean and rude, but that's how I am. Yet now, no one calls me that anymore. I actually let others help me because I really needed it. Especially when I got my egg that hatched into Togepi. When I did let others help me, I didn't really like it because my pride was ruined. But Togepi hatched and…we became close, I realize that it all didn't mattered. In the end, it was worth it. Maybe you should do the same…"
With those last words and the story, Isaac curled into a ball in the corner.
Mareep listened to Isaac's story, for a human, he really was just like Mareep himself. The girl, Marcy, she promised to love and care for Mareep.
"I'm sorry Mareep…I just can't keep you anymore. Stop following me! I said I can't keep you anymore! No! I don't want you!"
In the end, the wall of trust was broken. Why should one accept help? It's a big chance to take. But this human did, well, that's because he needed help.
Mareep shifted his sleeping position. Mareep doesn't need help, at least, that's the thought going around the mind. But…getting food has been hard around here; replenishing health is difficult as well. Mareep looked over at Isaac who had fallen asleep. Isaac had taken his belt off and placed them safely in his bag and Isaac held his bag close to him as he slept. This human seems very protective of his Pokemon.
The sun was shining; it was a beautiful new day. Isaac lifted his arms to stretch and was about to move but he sneezed after feeling stuff on his nose. He sat up and was surprised to see Mareep curled up next to him.
"No wonder I wasn't freezing to death last night…" Isaac thought and smiled to himself. Isaac removed himself from the corner and left the tree trunk carrying his water container with him.
Mareep slowly started to wake up, but noticed that the human was gone. Well, for a moment before hearing Isaac's voice.
"Hey, you're up. Here, good thing I bring extra bowls. Here, some Pokemon food and water," said Isaac who was outside the tree and was putting down food and water. Mareep slowly looked outside. He saw Jolteon eating as Isaac pets him.
"I wish I had my Scyther and Sandslash here. Golduck and Seadra too. I miss them, don't you?" Isaac asked Jolteon who nodded. Mareep slowly crept out and sniffed the food and then took a bite…it was good!
As Mareep ate, he watched Jolteon and Isaac from the corner of his eye. Isaac was laughing and smiling as he spends time with his Jolteon.
"Oh man…I hope they're taking care of Togepi. I also hope Togepi isn't too upset…" said Isaac worriedly as he pets Jolteon.
What Isaac didn't know was that Amy, Rose, and Terri were wishing the same thing.
Togepi will not stop crying for 'Mommy' and they couldn't do anything to stop the crying.
"That's it! We're going to look for him!" said Amy impatiently as she threw her arms into the air.
"But Amy…" Rose protested,
"No, I agree!" said Terri who was the one currently holding Togepi.
Isaac cleaned up everything and stretched,
"Well…so uh, are you still going to cause trouble?" Isaac asked and Mareeep only ignored him and started eating berries off a bush,
"Hey! Ugh! I can't believe I'm being mocked by a Pokemon and I can't do much about it…alright then, let's battle! This time, I'm catching you for sure!" said Isaac and Mareep still had his back to Isaac.
"I'm talking to you!"
Mareep started walking away and Isaac only followed,
"You know, I can do this forever," said Isaac and tails Mareep.
The two ended up following each other until noon and they grew hungry. Isaac only continued to follow Mareep who led him to an area fill with berries!
"Dang…"
Mareep expected a human to be thankful for this.
"Togepi would love all these new flavors if I made berry juice of these!" said Isaac excitedly which completely surprised the Mareep. Wasn't this human even thinking of hunger anymore?
The two ate there in silence until Isaac broke it,
"You know, Mareep, I realized in the battles that I've already seen you in that you tend to run away a lot. Now don't take it too personally, I'm just saying. Now I can prove to you right now that I never run away from battles!" said Isaac, partly gloated. Mareep started to have sparks coming from his body and Isaac moved a bit.
"If it's a challenge you want, I'll gladly accept!"
Mareep nodded. After their meal, the two moved from out from under the trees and into a more open field of grass.
"This time, victory will be mine! Go Jolteon!"
A battle full of electricity that flew everywhere. One wanting to prove its worth, the other assuming to be doing the same, but in reality, he just wants to help the other.
"Guys look!" Terri pointed to the sky where electricity was dancing in the sky.
"Come on! It could be Isaac!" said Rose and hurriedly ran towards that direction.
Both Mareep and Jolteon were starting to get exhausted. Isaac started thinking out his options. Mareep was doing the same as well, and the only choice Mareep had, was to run.
Isaac was surprised by the action,
"Jolteon! Pin Missile!"
Mareep countered that with an iron tail,
"That's it! Go Fast ball!"
Mareep had to stop to stop the Pin Missile giving Isaac the chance to throw the Fast Ball. The Fast Ball quickly reaches Mareep and Isaac waited to see if this has all been worth it.
Isaac felt like he was starting to sweat from the anxiety.
The Pokéball kept moving until finally, it stopped completely. Isaac smirked for himself and picked the Pokéball up.
"The rightful owner of this awesome electric Pokémon is me! Isaac! Future Electric Pokémon Gym leader!" Isaac posed.
Clap! Clap! Clap!
Isaac turned around when he heard clapping. There he saw Amy, Pikachu, Rose, and Terri clapping for him.
"That was awesome!" Amy complimented and slapped Isaac hard across his back and Isaac grunted.
"Uh…thanks," said Isaac but before anything else could be done, Rose tackled him to the floor.
"OH ISAAC! I was so worried about! Are you alright? Are you hurt? Are you sick? Did you hit your head?"
"Rose! Rose! I'm fine! I just caught a Mareep for crying out loud!" Isaac pointed out and tried to get Rose off him. Amy helped pulling Rose away this time. Then, Isaac heard a familiar cry as Terri walked up to him,
"Um, after clapping for you, Togepi awoke and started crying again! You're the only one that can calm Togepi down!" Terri exclaimed as Isaac stood up and picked up Togepi and started rocking.
"There, there, now Togepi. Its okay, it's alright. I'm here," said Isaac in a soothing voice. Amy, Pikachu, Rose, and Terri watched in awe as Togepi started to calm down.
"Togi…Togi!" Togepi happily cheered to be in the arms of 'Mommy' again.
After Togepi calms down, Isaac puts Togepi on his shoulder.
"So, I guess we can head back now," said Isaac,
"No way!" Terri exclaimed and they all stared at him,
"Do I dare ask why?" Isaac asked with his brow twitching.
"Do you know how far you've gone? Because of that, we've searched far and wide for you! As a result of that, we've already made it to our destination," said Terri and pointed to his right where a path lead out of this place and everyone walked out. There it was, a city!
"Goldenrod!" Rose exclaimed. Amy jumps on Isaac and hugged him tight,
"Thank you so much for being an idiot and getting as worried because you just got me to Goldenrod so much faster!" Amy nearly squealed in delight.
"Uh…you're welcome?"
Amy dashed for Goldenrod with everyone quickly behind her. They made it to the center and Isaac showed them his new Pokémon.
"It's so cool!" said Amy, admiring Mareep,
"Pika?!" Pikachu grew an anime vein,
"Not as cool as you of course!" Amy quickly said.
"Nice wool!" said Terri studying Mareep.
"It's so cute!" Rose squealed.
Mareep was already getting sick of the attention with all these humans kneeling around him.
Isaac then shooed them away and knelt down to Mareep. He took out something from his pocket and reached for Mareep's tail,
"Don't worry, I won't pull it or anything," he said calmly before Mareep gets the idea of giving him an electric shock. Isaac takes off the warn out yellow bow and gently ties on a blue scarf around the tail,
"There, that looks nice doesn't it?" Isaac asked with a light smirk.
"Togi!"
Mareep stared…yes, he was different from the rest.
"You can do what you want here except cause trouble and don't go too far, okay?" with that, Isaac got up and walked off to get some milk for Togepi.
Mareep watched Isaac sit down and mother Togepi with Jolteon on by right leg curled up for a nap. Yup, a strange human indeed. Mareep gave a 'baa!' and went to Isaac's other side hoping to get equal love from this unusual human.
Please R and R!
Once again, I apologize for being late at updating! Which is why this is also long!
Next: Amy takes on Goldenrod gym at an attempt to get her third badge. But Rose seems to be more interested in the Daycare for Pokémon than Amy's battle! She meats a boy that works there and can't help but fall head of over heals in love. Will anyone have a say about this? Especially if this 'love' makes Rose want to stay in Goldenrod forever?
