May gave off a hardy yawn as the sun began to set. Brendan sighed as he came to a halt.
"Great," he mumbled. "I knew this would happen."
"Knew wha..." May yawned again.
"Its getting too dark. We have to stop for the night."
"'Kay. Hey, you bring a tent or something?"
"uh, no. I thought you did."
"Me? I thought you did!"
"Great, that means all we have to sleep on is the cold ground!"
"Aw, its not so bad. Better then a pool table."
"Where the heck did you sleep on a pool table!? A bar!?"
"Nope. At a friend's house."
They went silent after that. Their Pokemon were watching the fight, and decided not to get involved. They just curled up by their owners, who were sitting Indian style in the grass. A cool breeze blew, making May shiver. She rubbed her arms, and Brendan began to do the same.
"Cold?" he asked. May nodded. With that, Brendan stood and began collecting sticks as darkness fell.
"I'll get a fire going," he told her. "Got any food in that bag of yours?"
"Um," May grabbed her bag and began going through it. "Just some crackers and a candy bar." she sighed.
"Its better then nothing, I guess," Brendan said, carrying an arm full of sticks. He put them down in between the two of them.
"Torchic, use ember on the sticks."
The little bird agreed, and the sticks were burning shortly.
"Ah, heat!" May scooted closer to the open flame.
"I'll say," Brendan replied, doing the same as she was. "Hey, you got enough food for two?"
May sighed and reached into her bag. She pulled out a six pack of crackers and a slightly melted chocolate bar, which wasn't very much. She opened the crackers and handed three to Brendan, who happily took them along with half of the chocolate. They were about to take a bite when they heard small stomachs growl.
"Kiiippp..." Kips moaned. Sure enough, all of their Pokemon were hungry. The trainers gave each Pokemon a cracker, and May was about to give them a bit of chocolate too, but before she could, Brendan grabbed her wrist.
"Hey!" she cried. "What are you doing!?"
"I'm wondering the same thing! Don't you know chocolates' poisonous to most Pokemon!?"
May put her hand down as Brendan let go. He sighed.
"Only certain Pokemon can have it. For all that we know, you could've given Sunny some, and she died!"
He sighed, and got back to dinner, with May copying him. They were silent for the rest of dinner, as they listened to the Ninjask sing.
When they finished, the two laid down onto the ground, separate of course, and their Pokemon snuggled close-by. The fire still burned, but not as strong, to help them see. As May began to close her eyes, Brendan asked,
"May?"
"Hm?"
"What're you planning on doing? I mean, are you going to be a coordinator, or a trainer?"
"I don't know. I haven't thought about it."
"Well, I'm going to be a trainer. I'm gonna beat the Pokemon League and be the champion."
"Wow, sounds good. I think I'll do the same."
"May, there can only be one champion. Besides, since when has a girl been the champion of the Pokemon League?"
"You saying I can't be the champion because I'm a girl?"
"No, I'm just saying its never been done before."
"Maybe I'll change that."
Brendan chuckled a bit.
"Maybe..."
May then heard the sound of something hitting the ground.
"Brendan?"
But Brendan was already asleep. May just smiled at his low snoring and fell asleep, the stars glowing above them.
Hope ya'll enjoyed chapter 14! Man, this storys' getting pretty long... Also, about May sleeping on a pool table... I've done it before, lol. And with the girl champion, just keep in mind that Cynthia didn't exist yet in the third generation :) Anyway, thanks Sage Strike2 for reviewing!
