Eve: Now, where will Akira and Sakura go? Find out in this chapter! And what will happen when the two of them go to where they're headed?
Legends Awaken: Sinnoh Arc
Chapter 11
"So, where should we go now?" Sakura asked, looking at her map.
"I'd say we should go through the Oreburgh Gate. We should then go through Jubilife until we reach a cave over here… Then, we go up until we reach Floaroma Town." Akira said, marking where to go on the map.
"Sounds good." Lauren said, putting her map away.
"So let's head to the Oreburgh Gate!" Akira shouted. Akira and Sakura rushed towards the Oreburgh Gate.
"Okay, now that we've arrived in Jubilife City, I think the first thing we should do I go to the pokemon center." Sakura said.
"Really? Why?" Akira asked.
"Because. We need to restore our health after those battles." Sakura said.
"I guess you're right…" Akira said.
"Okay, we've restored your pokemon to full health." Nurse Joy said, giving me three pokeballs and Eevee, and Sakura two pokeballs.
"So, where should we go from here? According to that hiker, between Jubilife City and Floaroma Town, right at the center of Route 204, is a cave called Ravaged Path, but it's blocked off by rocks." Akira said.
"Still, it's the only path, so there must be a way to get there…" Sakura said.
"Well, I'd say we should go to the Ravaged Path and see if there's some way we can get by." Akira said.
"Well, this sucks." Akira said, looking at the large rocks that stood in the middle of the cave, making it impassable.
"So, what do we do now?" Sakura asked.
"We should find some way to break these rocks, of course." Akira said.
"Hello, foolish Akira!" A voice boomed.
"Great… What now…" Akira asked, turning around.
"It is I, Kaien!" Kaien shouted, standing at the cave entrance.
"Kaien, what are you doing here…?" Akira asked.
"I came here to help you!" Kaien said, holding up a pokeball.
"Okay, now why are you really here?" Sakura asked.
"You don't believe me? Then fine! Sandshrew, go!" Kaien said, throwing the pokeball, which Sandshrew emerged from.
"Sandshrew, use rock smash!" Kaien shouted. Sandshrews' claw began glowing, then he slammed it into the rock, blowing it to pieces.
"Hah! You see?" Kaien said, smiling.
"Okay, see ya." Akira said, walking over the remains of the rock.
"Wait wait wait!" Kaien shouted.
"What now?" Akira asked, turning around.
"I came here to talk to you about Eevee!" Kaien exclaimed.
"What about Eevee?" Akira asked.
"Uei?" Eevee asked.
"What's the deal with her hidden power? According to Lauren, she's used two elements!" Kaien shouted.
"So?" Akira asked.
"I need to study Eevee and find out just how that hidden power of hers works!" Kaien said.
"...Again, so?" Akira asked.
"I'm coming with you until I figure out how Eevees' hidden power works!" Kaien said.
"Again, so?" Akira asked.
"What? I deserve more than a 'so'!" Kaien shouted.
"…Not really." Akira said, walking away.
"Um, you can come with us if you like…" Sakura said.
"Sakura, how much further until we reach Floaroma Town?" Akira asked.
"Um… After we leave Ravaged Path, we'll be there in a few minutes…" Sakura said, opening up the map.
"Stop ignoring me!" Kaien shouted.
"We're not ignoring you." Akira said.
"What? Then why aren't you talking to me?" Kaien asked.
"Well, we just haven't needed to." Akira said, reaching the cave exit.
"Ah, it looks like we're here." Sakura said, smiling.
"Yes! Floaroma Town, here we come!" Kaien said, running out of the cave at full speed.
"Ah!" A girl said, stepping out in front of Kaien, as the two collided with each other.
"Ow… What's the big idea?" Kaien shouted.
"Sorry!" The little girl said, bowing. "I didn't know anyone would be here, so I guess I was just…"
"Sis! What's going on?" An older girl said, walking up.
"Oh, big sis…" The little girl said, smiling.
"Is this punk bothering you…?" The elder girl asked.
"No, no! I just got in his way, that's all!" The little girl said.
"Huh? What's going on?" Akira asked.
"Oh, are you two this kids' friends?" The elder sister asked.
"Debatably." Akira said.
"Well, my name's Liz, and this is my kid sister Liv. And who are you all?" Liz asked, smiling.
"Well, my name's Akira, and this is my partner, Eevee." Akira said, gesturing to Eevee, who was sitting on his shoulder.
"My name's Sakura, and that guy there is Kaien." Sakura said, smiling.
"So, Sakura, Kaien, Akira, what are you all doing around here?" Liz asked.
"We're heading to Floaroma Town. Do you two live there?" Akira asked.
"Yep! We're training to be the best double battlers in Sinnoh!" Liv said, smiling.
"Really? That's great!" Sakura said, smiling. "It's nice to have dreams."
"Hey, by the way, how are you guys at battling?" Liz asked.
"Well, Akira already has a gym badge, so he's pretty good." Sakura said.
"I used to work as an apprentice at the Oreburgh Gym, so I'm good at battling to!" Kaien said, giving a big smile.
"So the two of you are good, huh…" Liz said, musing.
"Yep!" Kaien said.
"Alrighty then! The two of us challenge the two of you to a double battle!" Liz said, pulling a pokeball off her belt. "One pokemon each!"
"Wait, the two of us in a double battle?" Akira asked.
"Yep!" Liv said.
"Okay, two on two then!" Kaien said, pulling out a pokeball.
"Ready, Eevee?" Akira asked.
"Uei!" Eevee said, jumping off Akiras' shoulder, landing on the ground.
"Starly! Come on out!" Kaien said, tossing a pokeball into the air, and Starly popped out.
"Pachi! Pochi! GO!" Liv and Liz said, throwing two pokeballs in the air, which two squirrel-like pokemon emerged from.
"Whoa, what are those?" Akira said, opening up his pokedex.
"Pachirisu, the Electric Squirrel Pokémon. It gathers static electricity and hides fur balls along with its favorite fruit under the eaves of houses" The pokedex said.
"So, those are Pachirisu, huh?" Akira said, pocketing his pokedex. "Eevee, ready for this?"
"Uei!" Eevee said, running forwards at the two Pachirisu.
"Pachi, Pochi, helping hand!" Liv and Liz both said. The two Pachirisu began charging energy into their hands, which began glowing. The two then touched each other, charging energy.
"Eevee, use quick attack!" Akira said.
"Pachi, Pochi, spark!" The two said again, as the two Pachirisu charged their bodies with electricity, and then they both slammed into Eevee, knocking her backwards into the air, and she landed hard on the ground.
"Eevee, get up!" Akira said. Eevee struggled to stand up, when one of the Pachirisu charged at her with a quick attack.
