The group walked in silence for the most part, after they backed up after breakfast Shinji was in a worse mood then he usually is.

"Hey, what's wrong with him?" Satoshi whispered to Hikari.

"Who knows." Hikari rolled her eyes. She was concerned though, but she was also still furious with him because of what happened this morning. Her face turned red again just thinking about it

Satoshi looked at Hikari for a moment and then turned his attention to Shinji.

"Shinji, maybe when we take a break, we can have another battle?" Satoshi said.

"Whatever." Shinji said "If you're really that desperate to lose again."

"I'm not gonna lose Shinji! Never again am I ever going to lose to you!" Satoshi yelled

"Pikachu!" Pikachu agreed from his spot on Satoshi's shoulder.

"Hmph" Shinji continued walking he didn't feel like arguing with Satoshi; he had other things on his mind.

Takashi sighed well this isn't how I saw things going. Hikari seems pretty upset with Shinji, and Shinji hasn't looked at Hikari once sense we left camp. Takashi looked down at Ryu who was enjoying the adventure.

Ryu ran up to Shinji and hoped up on his shoulder, Satoshi, Hikari, and Takashi paused for a second thinking he was going to shove the pokemon off but Shinji just let him be.

"Riolu?" Ryu looked at his father; he noticed he was being colder then usual.

"Shut up" Shinji said but kept walking.

Hikari smiled Wow, and he says he hasn't changed ya right! Hikari ran to catch up with Shinji. "You want to talk about it?" Hikari asked quietly.

"Talk about what?" Shinji said coldly.

Hikari sighed "Listen I understand you're embarrassed, I'm embarrassed to but there's something else bothering you isn't there?" Hikari said

Shinji glared at her but never answered his question.

"Why don't we stop here, we've been walking for a while I'm sure everyone's hungry" Takashi laughed when Ryu went flying off Shinji's shoulder at the mention of food.

Shinji wasn't in the mood to eat so he sat by a tree while everyone ate. Ryu felt bad and brought his bowl over to Shinji. "Ri?" Ryu asked holding his bowl out to see if Shinji wanted any.

"Stupid" Shinji said patting Ryu on the head.

Hikari smiled at Shinji's gesture and turned her attention back to her friends.

"Hikari, why is Shinji so against going to Veilstone city?" Takashi asked

Hikari sighed "He won't tell me, he doesn't tell me anything except that I'm annoying or stupid." Hikari said.

"Really? I thought out of anyone he'd tell you why." Takashi said and liked the reaction he got from Hikari.

"What do you mean Takashi?" Hikari asked a small blush evident on her face.

"Well I've seen a change in him, but only when you're around" Takashi shrugged "I could be wrong he still seems like a heartless jerk most of the time."

"You think he's different around me?" Hikari asked looking over at Shinji

Takashi smiled and Satoshi glared at him. "Why are you saying weird things Takashi?" Satoshi asked and Takashi chuckled

Hikari ignored him and walked over to Shinji and smiled down at him. Shinji was uncomfortable under her gaze "What?" He asked.

Hikari took his hand and pulled him up "What the hell are you doing?" Shinji asked getting up from where he sat.

"We need to talk!" Hikari said dragging him out into the woods. Ryu followed. Hikari stopped and looked down at Ryu. "Ryu, do you mind staying behind I need to talk to him alone ok?" Hikari asked.

Ryu looked confused. This would be his first time away from both of them he didn't like the idea of that. Hikari smiled sadly "Don't worry we'll be right back promise! Here" Hikari let out her Piplup. "Piplup will keep you company while we're gone" She smiled

"Pip, pip!" Piplup said pounding its chest.

Ryu still wasn't happy he knew Hikari was coming back but didn't trust that Shinji would. Hikari looked at Shinji "Well?"

"Well what?" Shinji said he was really pissed he wanted to be left alone.

"Leave a Pokemon with him so he knows your coming back to!" Hikari demanded.

Shinji let out a frustrated sight "Damn it fine!" Shinji took out a pokeball and let out his Weavile. "Stay here" he ordered and allowed Hikari to drag him out into the woods.

Ryu looked at Piplup and Weavile and began to cry. Weavile stared at Ryu and then looked to see if Shinji was still around and noticed he wasn't and walked over to the crying pokemon.

Piplup was trying to calm him down but it wasn't working. Weavile went over and patted Ryu on the head "Wea, weavile weav weavile!" it reassured him saying "Shinji may be a jerk but he'll come back"

Ryu looked at Weavile and laughed and Weavile smiled down at the baby pokemon. Weavile's been with Shinji for a long time, and even though her training was tough and he was cold toward her and the other pokemon Weavile still cared for her trainer greatly.

OK so there were spoilers in the chapter but I kept them minor. Yes, Shinji has a Weavile but if you also watch the American dub then you should know that lol! I kinda felt bad making Hikari leave Ryu behind but I wanted Shinji and Hikari to have to ALONE time lol! Well see ya in Chapter 13!
