Me :"it's..."

Everyone :"DEBATE SESSION!"

Pikachu :"why must we do such a fool things like this?"

Eve :"just admit it Greatpika. You're lose."

Me :"why must I?"

Nicholas :"he's better than you guys!"

Luke :"say, is his grammar great?"

Me :"I've tried!"

Pikachu :"what about eve's nickname? It was too simple. You're just lazy to find another name right?"

Me :"eve is a cute name I thought."

Pikachu :"how could that first hint at the first race become underwater then?"

Me :"take the first letter from each answers."

Luke :"what about the first race, how could we warp?"

Me "I'm-"

Eve :"how about find those eggs?"

Me :"that-"

Pikachu :"don't forget when you suddenly friendly with nicholas eve."

Me :"LET ME-"

Eve :"how about those gag? It's useless."

Pikachu :"your phrases really bad."

Luke :"lucario's quote! It wasn't a quote!"

Eve :"author's note!"

Nicholas :"first chapter!"

Pikachu :"those fail in typing!"

Eve :"capital words!"

Nicholas :"your attitude!"

Me "... in which side are you nicholas?"

Nicholas :"well, it looks like you'll lose, so I help them." ;P

Me :*silenced and go to the corner of he room with his creepy aura.*

Eve :"well, nicholas. We're in a side I think."

Nicholas :"yeah..."

Luke :"GP_444 doesn't own pokemon!"

Pikachu :"and let the story begin!"

Eve's pov

"well then, let the second race begin!" miss lia said.

"2 days from now..." Everyone fell off anime style.

"now school's off. For nicholas's team, don't go home first. I want to talk."

Then the other went home and we stay there.

"what is it miss lia?" nicholas asked politely.

"not just could you choose another team to join you, but you will also get another help. Tomorrow, you guys see your senior's training." She replied.

"wow, thanks ma'am!" I thanked her.

Then we went home. Just like yesterday, my lovely brother readied in front of school's gate for me and then we walked together to home. It was night, we were having dinner. I told them what happened today, every of it.

"... then we finally win the race!" I said cheerfully. I paused for a while because I saw pikachu's face. It... strange. He looked happy, but I could feel he sad too in the same time.

"what's wrong brother?" I asked him worried.

"nothing. It just make me glad I schooled you there. It was known as a school which not just teach theory or fighting technique, but friendship and happiness..." he said calmly. I didn't know why, but he always touched me with his words.

"I love you brother." I said as I hugged him.

"so, it looks like you like this 'nicholas' don't you?" he asked me. I didn't know why but I slightly blush.

"th-that's not possible! I hate him! He just a bad boy!" I said hysterically.

"okay, take it easy eve. I'm just kidding."

"...I'm sorry. I don't know what's into me." I apologized.

"hmmm... but sometimes when you hate someone so much, you will be fall in love to him." He replied with a grin.

"ugh..." I couldn't imagine what if that really happened.

"stop it pikachu. Don't annoy your sister." Clefairy told him.

"sorry." He apologized.

"Well, tomorrow I will see the senior's training!"

"that's cool! You better keep your eyes to watch them! Who know you can learn their moves?"

"yeah! And I will win the second race too!" I said excited. Then suddenly I realized something what could make pikachu sad.

"hey brother... do you... want to school?" I asked him I felt that I irritated him with all my story.

"I'm sorry brother, I... told you my story... proudly." I said as my ears down.

"eve, by listening your story, I've already felt like I'm schooling. So you don't need to worry about me." He told me. I just give him a sweet smile.

"then, I'll go to bed. Are you coming brother?" I offer him because there was just one room for us.

"well, you sleep first. I will take a fresh air."

Then he off to take some walk. I didn't sleep until he came back.

"why didn't you sleep eve?" he asked me.

"I want to hear your song again... just like when I still baby..." I asked him

"haha! You still a baby in my eyes." He laughed.

"I just want to hear it... that song you sing is soothing, I will never can forget it." I tried my best to sing that song he always sang for me before sleep.

"sigh... well, get to bed." He ordered me. Then I readied to sleep with a warm blanket. Then he sang that song which soothe me. Not just that, he stroke my fur really gently. Not long, I slept.

Somewhere, at the same night, third person's pov

"hey, I found the orb!" the first shadow said. It was a shadow of a dog.

"great. I knew I won't regret to let you alive." Said the second shadow.

"wait! It didn't shine! The power of this 'DARK ORB' has been triggered!" said the third shadow.

"s-sorry master! I-"

"it's okay. The thing is who?" said the second shadow.

"tch. So that will be the last way to reach our hope."

"but it's still too dangerous to do it." The second shadow argued.

"what is it sir?" the first shadow asked.

"we need to find it all over 100 places which some will be a dangerous places. And I thought that this orb will be around there." explained the third shadow.

"why don't we just find the other orb?" asked the first shadow.

"because there's no clue about the other orb. And it's nearly impossible for us to find these clue because we have attacked some village like yours." Explained the third shadow.

"so, this place gonna be the last to be searched?" the second shadow asked as it pointed the map, the twinleaf town.

Next morning, eve's pov

"hey eve, wak-"

"I've already awake pikachu!" I said cheerfully.

"wowow, why suddenly-"

"I can't wait anymore to see the senior's training, that's why!" I told him.

"so now you better take bath and then go down because there's your favorite food on the dining table." He said.

"really? You mean your-delicious-home-made-cookies? You don't kidding me don't you?" I asked excitedly.

"why must I lie? Just take a bath before you eat some." He said as he get downstairs.

"YIPEEE! COOKIES!" I shouted as I went to bathroom.

After I took bath, I went downstairs, and found some cookies on the dining table as pikachu said.

"COOKIES! 3"

"eat some. I prepared some for you at school."

"thanks for the food!" then we started to eat.

After eat some cookies, I went to school with pikachu. Then I talked with luke and saki.

"thanks for your kindness to choose us to join your team, eve!" saki thanked me politely.

"it's okay. By the way, just speak normally. We're friend right? no need to be formal like that."

"ummm... okay then..." she said shyly, but not as polite as before.

"anyway, thanks, ev-"

"DON'T THANK THEM!" suddenly a voice came. It sounded full of hatred. When we turned, it was yoshi's voice.

"THEY JUST UNDERESTIMATE OUR TEAM!" he said angrily.

"I just want to help y-"

"WE DON'T NEED YOUR HELP!" he replied. I couldn't say anything.

"hey, she just want to help , yoshi. And more, she believe that we will surely help. Does it mean that she underestimate us?" Saki told him, trying to covered me up. I had just thought that beside saki was polite, she was a clever one too.

"... fine then." Then yoshi calmed down and he went to the classroom.

"thanks saki." I thanked her.

"no need to thank. I'm sorry I didn't tell you that he always like that."

"I wonder why did he like that?" I asked rhetorically.

"he was an orphan. He raised by a well-known adventurer named harry. He told yoshi that the most important thing is friend. Yoshi always believes it until he died. When yoshi found it, the one what made harry died is because his friend. Harry was went to camping, but his teammates underestimate him so they thought he would only be obstacle for them, so they got rid of him. But harry was strong. He didn't die, but suddenly his friend slipped and going to fall from the cliff. Harry helped him, but his friend betrayed him, so harry was pushed to the cliff and harry died. From that incident, yoshi never wants to believe anyone anymore. He believes that the most important thing is proud and the most worst thing is friend. That's why he didn't like it when you help our team." She told me.

"so that's why he was really mad..."

"but how did you know it? Did he tell you the story? It's impossible for him to tell you his story right?" I asked curiously.

"I just find some information about all of my friend, my classmates." She replied.

"wait, is that mean..."

"yup! I know about you. You were raised by pikachu, the shopkeeper. But then your village were attacked and you ran with pikachu to pikachu's father, damion. After a while, pikachu found that damion was going to sell you, so he ran away with you. But then you didn't believe him and you stayed with damion. The next day, you found that damion was really want to sell you and pikachu was not lying. but right before you were sold, pikachu came and help you out from there. Now you live at here with a clefairy who has a shop." she said with a sweet smile on her face.

"..." I silenced and sweatdropped. /Dude, how could her know EVERYTHING about me?\ I thought.

"...well, I think I have something to do." I said as I came to yoshi.

"wait!"

After a while, I found yoshi.

"hey." I greet him.

"now what?"

"I want to say, I have just underestimated you just as you said." I said. He didn't say anything, but he readied a punch.

"I'm sorry." I said as I bent down.

"e-eve!" saki said trying to made me stand again.

"what do you think you're doing? You know it's right that you're stronger than us! Why must you-"

"bent down and apologize? Because I know I was wrong, so I should immediately apologize. That what my brother taught me." I explained.

"why don't you just apologize?"

"because I know you won't apologize me if I don't bent down." I told him.

"why don't you keep your proud?"

What proud could I get if I did something's wrong?"I replied. He couldn't say anything for a while.

"...fine. I apologize you. Stand up." He said as I stood up. "just one more question, are you do this because you don't have any proud, or you just stupid?" he asked me.

"just say I'm stupid?"

Then the bells rang and we went to the class. I saw yoshi smile a , Mr rio came and accompanied me, nicholas, and luke to the senior's training ground. It wasn't far, but it pretty far. (?)

"little champion, we're here. The training ground!" mr rio told us.

I could saw there's a practice for fire, water, ground, leaf, and flying type, even steel.

"wow!"

"hey, let me training too!" luke said as he went to the pool, the water type's training ground.

"really, luke is just like a kid." Nicholas sighed.

"we are kids remember?" I said slyly.

"well, wanna see them?" I offered nicholas as I pointed the pool.

"fine with me." He agreed.

Then we went to the pool. I saw when luke training the bubble beam move. He really tried so hard, and finally he did it. But the bubble beam looked uncontrolled and it stroke towards me.

"EVE, WATCH OUT!"

Suddenly, I glowed, and without knowing anything, I used a bubble beam move to block luke's bubble beam.

"who eve, how did you do that?" luke asked me curiously.

"I... don't know... I just suddenly use that move." I answered unconvinced.

"it's strange. You still an eevee, but you can use water type move? I think you need to evolve to vaporeon first." Nicholas asked.

"I told you I don't know."

"... but that was cool." Nicholas said

"can you do that again? Can you?" luke asked me excitedly.

"let me try then." I said. Then I tried to use that bubble beam move and it worked!

"hmmm... eve, how if now you try to see the other type like fire?" nicholas asked me.

"fine with me." I said as I saw the senior's new move: fire blast. I tried to copy it and I can do it.

"wow, now that's cool!" nicholas said to me.

"but this is strange... " then the bells rang.

"hey nicholas, can you help me?" I whispered.

"... is it about your strange abilities you just got?" he asked me back.

"yup."

"hmmm... I bet you want me to help you at the library to find something may be affect you like this, am I right?" he said just like a detective.

"yeah, so-"

"I'll help. It's kinda interesting..." he agreed with a smile.

"thanks."

"no problem. After school okay?"

"right after I got permission from my brother."

"fine." Sometimes I thought he wasn't annoying at all.

After we training, I learned fireblast, bubblebeam, razorleaf, bite, spark and extreme was great, but somehow, I felt tired after learn all those moves. Then the bells rang and I went to the gate to meet pikachu and I got the permission after I told him my new abilities, but it seemed pikachu didn't surprise with my story. Then I went to library and I met nicholas. Then we searched everything which have a relation with my strange ability.

"hey, did you find something?" I asked nicholas. He looked so serious and it's co- ... never mind.

"is this MAY BE why you got those ability?" he showed me the book he read and it told the story about 'THE TALES OF 17 ORBS'

Eve :"hey, where's greatpika?"

Luke :"he's over there. It looks like we trolled him too much."

Pikachu walks towards me.

Pikachu :"ummm... I think I say this for every of us here. We're sorry."

Me :"..." *silence*

Eve :"GP, can you apologize us? I promise I won't make fun of you again..." *ears down*

Me :"...fine."

Pikachu :"nah, that's the GP I know!"

Saki :"hi guys."

Eve :"hi saki! It's rare to see you here!"

Saki :"it's because I never come here..." *facepalm*

Eve :"oh right! by the way, how could know everything about me in this story?"

Saki :"that's I and GP's secret. 3 we'll tell you later at the story!" *wink*

Eve :*sweatdrop* /she's cute and kind, but her knowledge behind those make me scare...\ *space out*

Saki :"what is it eve?"

Eve :"i-it's okay!"

Saki :"oh well."

Me :"then, bye. I wanna go to bed." *Leave room*

Pikachu :"he's still mad..."

Eve :"hey, your birthday is 9th may right? just same as he, so..."

Pikachu :"we need a surprise party then."

Saki :"then see ya again, my lovely readers! 3"
