Chapter 11: Mina's Second Gym Battle.
The day after Mina and the other got Dewford Island they all went to the gym. Of course there was another odd training session… this time the music was playing was Rock Lee's theme, she wore her leaf head bend around her waist this time.
"Yosh! The power youth is within all of you!" yelled Mina.
Sneasel, Dewgong and Smoochum were backed into a corner.
"Mina's scaring me…" said Dewgong.
"She scares all of us…" said Sneasel.
Later they were at the gym… however the gym leader Brawly. However he went out to go surfing… at least that's why everyone thought, he spoke in 1960's surfer dude... so no one understood him.
"You know lets go to the beach" said Mina.
"Sure" said Beth.
"Okay let's go" said Maggie.
"Thank god… we have to wait to for Mina to embarrass herself by acting like Rock Lee…" said Smoochum.
"Oh you should talk…" said Mina.
Smoochum sweatdroped, "Just please don't act like him during the match… please…" said Smoochum
It was Mina's turn to sweat drop.
After the awkwardness, they all went back to the Pokemon center and got their bathing suit, towels and other stuff you need you get at the beach. Some of them let their Pokemon but only a few. When they got there Mina, Beth, Smoochum and Larvitar they built a sandcastle, Megan and Azumarill played near the water and every one else sunbathed. Suddenly a big wave hit Megan.
"Oh man" said Megan.
"Whoa are you okay" said Brawly walking up with a Hariyama.
"I'm fine" said Megan extremely dizzy still on the ground.
"Megan you should be careful" said Mina who walked up.
"Oh, your one who challenged me today" said Brawly.
Mina nodded, "I know that you ether need a break or this training" said Mina.
Beth walking by of course she was blushing.
"Oh man" said Mina put her face into hand.
Larvitar knew what was going to happen so he started to cry. Beth noticed and ran over to him.
"Larvitar what's wrong." said Beth.
She began to cuddle him, both Brawly and Mina and stared at her. They went back to their conversation.
"Yeah you're right I use surfing to train, what a better then to play in nature" said Brawly.
"So what I want to battle now" said a voice behind Mina.
Mina turned around and saw Peter.
"Wassup! Look I want to battle now" said Peter.
Maggie show up where they were.
"Peter what are you doing?" said Maggie.
"Challenging the gym leader what else..." said Peter.
"You told me that you wanted talk to Mina about something this is a good opportunity…" said Maggie.
"I guess..." said Peter.
A few minutes later they went to an area covered by bushes.
"You know Mina about Anne…" said Peter.
"What about her" said Mina.
"You know we have a cousin named Anne that we share…" said Peter.
"Of course I know… I was closer to her than you were" said Mina.
"Don't remind me… when she was around you two were like sisters…" said Peter, "It's just that Anne… the one that's Dark Angel… she lost her memories… right?"
"Yes, remember we told you, why are you asking" said Mina.
"Well…" said Peter.
Meanwhile, Maggie, Megan, Beth, April and Smoochum were watching them though the bushes.
"How sweet" said April.
"I know my stomach is hurting because of it" said Megan.
Maggie hit her with a big paper fan.
"Ow! You didn't have to hit so hard." said Megan.
"Shh!" said Maggie.
"We already thought about that…" said Mina still in conversation.
"You did…" said Peter in a sweat drop.
"Me and Maggie… decided to wait and see what happens… after Anne and Anne might not be one in the same…" said Mina.
"You should have at least told me earlier…" said Peter angrily then decided to change the subject, "Hey it's been awhile catch any good Pokemon?"
"Well I just caught a Dewgong yesterday" said Mina.
"Cool, the other day I caught a Cloyster" said Peter.
"Couldn't help to catch an ice type huh?" said Mina.
Peter laughed, "I guess your right" he said.
"They're laughing now stomach really does hurt" said Megan.
All three girls hit her with big paper fans.
"Ow that really hurt" said Megan coming out of the bushes.
"Hey were you watching us" said Mina.
"Yes, why don't you kiss now" said Megan.
"It's not like that!" said Mina.
"Yeah why would I kiss her, she so uncute" said Peter.
"What!" said Mina.
A few minutes later Peter came out of the bushes holding his noise since it was bleeding.
"What happened?" said Maddie.
"Peter said the worst thing he could say to a girl" said Megan.
"Oh, she beat him up" said Anne.
"Yes that right, it was awesome" said Crawdaunt coming out nowhere.
"You always love to see Peter get hit, don't you?" said Megan.
"Sure do" said Crawdaunt.
"Why?" said Anne.
"See you later" said Crawdaunt who ran away.
"That was odd" said Anne.
The next day everyone including Peter and Matt went to the gym. Peter went first, Deborah cheer for Magby and Megan cheered for Cloyster which gave them strength to do it. Second was Matt's, Tyrouge pulled though and his second Pokemon a Snorunt gave it all it got, because of Mina cheered with all her heart.
"She didn't cheer for me" said Peter in a huff.
Finally it was Mina's battle, she tied her Leaf head band to her waist, "THE POWER OF YOUTH BURNS WITHIN ME!" yelled Mina.
"Please Mina don't act like Rock Lee during your match…" said Smoochum.
Mina tied it to her fore forehead "I'm going to win! Believe it!" yelled Mina.
"Don't do Naruto…" said Smoochum.
The Leaf headband replaced her pink head band "I'll win this battle…" said Mina.
"I'm going to kick your butt!" yelled Inner Mina.
"Okay two things… 1. Don't act like Sakura… and 2. Since when do you have an inner Mina?" said Smoochum.
Mina tied her leaf head band to her arm, "This is so troublesome…" said Mina.
"Please don't act like Shikamaru…" said Smoochum.
It was once again tied to her fore head "Hn…" she said.
"Don't act like Sasuke…" said Smoochum.
The headband was now around her neck and she was blushing and didn't say anything.
"Don't act Hinata either…" said Smoochum.
It was now on her forehead "You can't escape destiny…" said Mina.
"… I thought you didn't like Neji… so why are you impersonating him?" said Smoochum.
She replaced her headband with on of the bandanas and wore it over her head, she was also eating a bag of chips.
"Please tell me this s the last one… because this getting old…" said Smoochum.
Mina now wore the headband over her left eye and was reading a book.
"I wish you were late for something… I would have loved to see an excuse… and please stop impersonating the Naruto cast…" said Smoochum.
Mina once again wore it over her forehead however… "Um… I can't think anything good for Tenten…" said Mina.
Smoochum anime fell, "At least it's over…" said Smoochum.
"What were you doing?" asked Brawly.
"Just having a little fun… just thought if I was too serious I would loose…" said Mina.
"I like your style…" said Brawly.
"It's just Mina being Mina…" sighed Smoochum.
"This a battle between Mina of Manla Town and Brawly of Dewford gym, this is a two on two battle with no time limit, when both of a trainers Pokemon is knocked out the winner is decide, now begin" said Referee.
"Go Machop!" said Brawly.
"Go! Dewgong" said Mina.
"Dewgong?" said Anne.
"Mina knows what she's doing" said Megan.
"Machop, use Karate Chop" said Brawly.
"Dewgong, use Ice Beam" said Mina.
Dewgong use its Ice Beam before Machop attacked and Machop froze.
"Machop is unable to battle, Mina is the winner" said the referee.
"No fair, Mina is a Poke…" said Peter but his mouth was shut by Maggie and Anne.
"Remember don't say that in public" said Maggie.
"Return Dewgong." Said Mina, "Go Smoochum"
"Right!" said Smoochum stepping up to the battle field.
"Interesting, go Hariyama." Said Brawly, "Use Knock Off"
"Dodge and use Confusion" said Mina.
Smoochum dodged that attack and did Confusion and Hariyama was knocked out.
"Hariyama is unable to battle Smoochum is the winner" said the referee.
Later, Matt and Peter were leavening the Island. While and the others were going to stay for a while.
"So you're going to stay here for a while?" said Matt.
"Yeah, there's a contest in Slateport in a few weeks, and April is competing, plus we're getting another member of group" said Mina.
"Remember the Manla festival is happening soon" said Peter.
"I know I'll be there" said Mina.
Matt and Peter left on a boat.
"The Manla festival?" said Anne.
"It's a festival with games and stuff, I have to go there to help out, its after the contest so you guys want to go?" said Mina.
"Of course" said Maggie who been there several times before.
"Sounds fun" said Maddie.
"Okay so we are there after the contest" said Mina.
"Manla festival huh? Why does that sound familial?" said Anne to herself.
Next Time: Mina has always thought there was a possibility that her cousin Anne and Anne AKA Dark Angel were one in the same... now the questions to Anne's past are reviled... is she Mina's long lost cousin or not... and if she's not who is her family?
