Yay, a chapter ahead of schedule! Please review if you read this chapter. Even if all you have to say is "hi, I read this chapter". I have a poll about Soul on my profile right now, so go take a look after you read this chapter and review!
"So Cybil, why do you want to come with us?" I asked Cybil.
"I kinda got kicked out of my old home, so I need some friends. You two look pretty nice." Cybil responded. I started laughing when he called us nice. "What's so funny?"
"It's complicated." I told him.
"You know, it's not very nice to shoot a shadow ball at a girl's face." A female voice from behind me said.
"Which one is it? I don't feel like looking." I said.
"It's Glaceon." Darnecia said.
"Wonderful." I said sarcastically. I then turned and faced Glaceon. "What are you trying to accomplish by stalking me?"
"I want to go out." Glaceon responded.
"I don't" I said.
"Why not?" Glaceon said.
"Because I have a mate. Or, at least, I'm hoping to." I turned and faced Darnecia. "Darnecia, do you want to be mates?" I asked her.
"Of course!" She squealed.
"Oh, I'm sorry I didn't know about you two. I'll leave you alone now." Glaceon said sadly. She then walked back towards Black City. Once she was out of earshot I started talking.
"Thanks for having my back. You're a really good actor. You actually looked like you wanted to be mates." I said to Darnecia.
"That's what friends are for." She said. "Do you think that trick will work on Heart too?"
"Probably not. Heart is a lot less sane than Glaceon."
"So can I journey with you two?" Cybil asked us.
"Why not?" I said shrugging as I spoke.
"Thanks. So where are we going anyways?" He asked.
"We're going to Pallet Town, Kanto." I told him.
"Hey Soul I have a question." Darnecia said.
"What's up?"
"You know how you said that in the story you remembered having a crush on someone but you couldn't remember who? Do you remember now?"
"No, sorry. I'm not sure." I said.
"Oh, okay." Darnecia said disappointedly. She had encouraged me to get a girlfriend quite a few times. I guess she's sad that I still can't find one. I don't quite understand her, she never had a boyfriend since she met me.\ and she's the one lecturing me about getting a girlfriend.
"Hey Darnecia, something's confusing me. Why did you constantly encourage me to get a girlfriend back when we were both pets?"
"Because you were still a bit of a loner who didn't trust others much. I figured a girlfriend could help with that."
"This may sound a bit off topic, but what's a first kiss like?"
"You haven't had yours yet?"
"No, I haven't, have you?"
"Yeah."
"Who?"
"You know Lizak the growlith?"
"The one who burned that building down and ran out of the city screaming 'vengeance will be fine. I am the flightless bird!'?
"Yeah, I kissed him back when he was a little more sane."
"He was sane?"
"Somewhat. He ran around screaming 'life is a pile of gigantic sausages' after I kissed him, so he wasn't really that sane. I broke up with him soon after that." We both laughed.
"If you don't mind me asking, do you know why your owner was abusing you?"
"I think it may have something to do with the fact that him and the woman in the house started arguing a lot. So what about you?'
"What about me?"
"Why do you think Chris abandoned you?"
"Heck if I know."
"It's getting pretty late. We should probably start looking for somewhere to sleep." Darnecia suggested. I lead Darnecia and Cybil to a place that was around fifty feet away from the path and then lied down.
"This a cool place to sleep?" I asked.
"Yeah." Darnecia said.
"Totally." Cybil said. And with that I fell asleep. When I woke up I noticed that there was some kind of pressure on me. I tried to move my legs, but they were being pinned down. I opened my eyes and saw that Heart was in her true form pinning me down. When she noticed that I was awake she took her face and brought it close to mine. She then kissed me. It felt gross and awkward in a sense, but also pretty fun to be kissed.
"And that's what a first kiss is like." Heart said after she stopped kissing me. "Wanna go for seconds?" She asked before plunging her lips back onto mine. So this is what kissing is like. It's pretty fun to be honest, though I wish that my first kiss wasn't with Heart. Then a stream of fire slammed into Heart and knocked her off of my body. I then got up and started running towards the path. Darnecia, who was the source of the fire followed me.
"Where's Cybil?" Darnecia asked me.
"I think Heart was pretending to be Cybil so that she could get close to me and kiss me." I looked up at the sun and figured that it must be around three in the morning. "I'm glad you woke up and saved me, otherwise we would have been kissing for hours." That is a bad thing, right? Well if Heart wanted to kiss me then it must not be something good.
"That's what friends are for." She said as we kept running. After an hour or so of running we finally stopped running and looked at each other. For some reason or another we both cracked up. "You've certainly got some odd stalker fangirls."
"Yeah, I don't get why they like me. What's so special about me?"
"You're special in many ways, but I'm too tired to explain all of them."
