Hey Kasper here. Here's Chapter 14. Yes that's right another chapter, god I'm good.

Any way, here comes the annoying bit...

Chapter 14

"You son of a bitch". Said Eddie as we went to see Chris. "You're that pompous dick head from pewter Pokémon centre".

"Don't speak to Chris like that". Yelled Gloom.

"Don't worry". I told her. "Eddie you need to calm down before something bad happens".

"Yeah, you're right". Sighed Eddie. "That guy just really pisses me off".

"I'm a different person now though". Said Chris, waking up to the sudden noise. "I really have, after I met gloom here I turned my life around. I'm not that mean, pompous dick head that I was".

"And how did Gloom change your life"? I asked. "If you don't mind me asking".

"Of course not". He replied. "It all began about a week after what happened in Pewter City. I was going through Mt. Moon and I met up with some rocket guys, they were surrounding a little Oddish and laughing at it. I wasn't going to say anything but then they started attacking it, they were kicking and punching it, and even with what I was like before, not even I could just stand there and just watch as three big men punched and kicked a Pokémon that barely reached their knees. I got mad and suddenly saw what I was missing in life and I attacked the rocket guys". He stopped talking for a moment just staring blankly at the wall. "Continue". I said.

"Yeah". Said Chris. "So there I was running at the rocket guys, yelling at them to stop and I threw a punch, but I missed an the nearest guy caught my fist and punched me in the stomach, knocking the wind out of me. He let go of my hand and I fell to the ground, trying to breath. Then the guy came behind me and kicked me in the back of the head. I fell flat on my face and the other two started kicking me all over my body, joining the first who was punching me in the face repeatedly, I mean you'd think I'd played them Friday by Rebecca black the way they were wailing on me".

"To be honest if you had played Rebecca black to me I would have done more than beat you up". I said, making him laugh.

"Thanks man, I needed a laugh". He said. "Any way, while they were attacking me the Oddish managed to get up and was looking at me in horror, "Run", I had said to it but instead it let out an ear piercing screech and a few moments later loads more Oddish appeared and they attacked the rocket guys, using razor leaf and vine whip and stun spore and other stuff on them. They dragged them away and eventually I couldn't even hear their screams of horror. The Oddish I had saved was still there and it helped me up, in a way, it used vine whip to hold me up and helped me get to cerulean city where I was patched up and was on my way two days later. The Oddish never left my side the whole time and when I was ready to go it followed me so it joined my team. I only healed from the attack about a week ago and Oddish evolved about two weeks ago. She hasn't been in her pokeball other than when I caught her but then I let her out straight away and she hasn't got in it or left my side since".

"And I never will". Said gloom.

"That's nice Gloom". I said. "Oh yeah". I said as I saw the peoples puzzled looks. "Gloom says and she never will".

"You can understand Pokémon". Said Chris in awe. "You lucky fucker".

"I think it's time you explained some things". Said Misty.

"Urrgh". I groaned. "I'm getting tired of explaining this but here it comes. So Eevee runs away from me because she is scared of my scars and so I case after her...And then Celebi teleported me to the Pokémon centre and I passed out". I finally finished telling Misty and Chris what had happened and it had taken a good ten minutes, ten long minutes".

"After hearing that what happened to me doesn't sound that bad". Said Chris.

"Yeah". I said. "But I was unconscious for it anyway so I didn't actually feel it".

"Still". He said. "I can't believe you got shot, I was there and I just told people to fuck off because I had my Pokémon and so they wouldn't be nicked".

"Don't worry about it". I said. "We dealt with them guys anyway so no harm done, well any which was your fault anyway".

"Thanks for being so understanding". He said. "It means a lot, I don't really have many friends so there aren't many people who are nice to me".

"Well you just made a bunch of them". I said. "And we'll help you out how we can".

"Really". He asked. "You mean it".

"Of course he does". Said Misty. "And so do I. It was good to see you again as well".

"Again". He said.

"Yes again". Said Misty. "I'm the cerulean city gym leader".

"Oh yeah". He said. "I thought I recognised you. How's your Psyduck doing"?

"It evolved later that day". She replied. "Kasper battled me the day after".

"Wait so why are you in saffron anyway"? I asked.

"I came to battle Sabrina again". He replied. "For the fifth time. I already got the vermillion badge and the celadon badge and now I'm back here for my next badge, see if I can't get it this time".

"Well I'm rooting for you". I said. "But if you'll excuse me I have to go practice for the contest".

"You're entering the contest"? Chris said confused. "I didn't pin you as that sort of person".

"I'm not really but my cousin is entering". I said. "I haven't seen her in 9 years so I want to tell her who I am, but I can't just walk up and tell her".

"Yeah, that's a good point". He said. "Well I wish you luck".

"Thanks". I said as I walked out of the door. "Misty could you come and give me a hand".

"Of course Kasper". She said following.

We walked out of the Pokémon centre and went around the back. Espeon running to catch up with us. "She doesn't leave you alone does she"? Misty laughed.

"Nope". I said. "But I don't mind, she sees me as a father, she actually calls me daddy. Anyway, come on out Blastoise". I grabbed the pokeball from my belt and threw it into the air and Blastoise materialised in front of me. "How ya doing boy"?

"Fine thanks Kasper". He said. "What cha want me for"?

"Well you see I'm entering a Pokémon contest and I want to enter with you". I said. "And I have the perfect appeal for the first round".

"What was it you needed me for"? Asked Misty.

"Well I thought seeing as you are a water type trainer and a gym leader at that that you could tell me what you think of the performance".

"Of course". She said. "I'd love to".

"Thanks". I said. "Now Blastoise are you ready".

"Yup". He said.

"Ok". I replied. "Go into a rapid spin and go around in a circle".

"You got it". He said. "He pulled into his shell and spun around really fast and started moving in a circle.

"Now use hydro pump". I said to which he started shooting water out of his cannons which spun around with him and made a whirlpool which was moving around in a circle. "Now get out of there". I yelled.

He suddenly shot out of the whirlpool and landed on his back looking all dizzy. "Awe man". I groaned. "It didn't work".

"Don't worry". Said Misty. "You'll get the hang of it".

"I hope so". I said. "Let's go again". I told Blastoise and he tried again, and again, and again. "(God please let me get the hang of this before the contest)".

"Hello and welcome to this the annual Saffron City Pokémon Contest". Said the commentator. "I'm your host Lillian and here are our judges, its Mr. Contesta, head of the Pokémon fan club Mr. Sukizo and Saffron city's very own Nurse Joy. We have a lot of coordinators today and by the end of the day our 30 will be down to 2 who will battle it out for this here the Saffron Ribbon". She held up the ribbon for the crowd to see and they cheered loudly. "Now without further a due, here is contestant number 1 Jeffery Co-field".

A boy ran out onto the stage, he was wearing tight jeans and a bright green wife beater; this along with his bright red hair actually looked pretty good. "C'mon out Penny". He yelled, grabbing a pokeball and throwing it in to the air releasing a Pinsir who landed on one foot and gave a twirl. "Now". He yelled as he took something from behind his back. "Brick break". With that he revealed what was behind his back. He had four bricks, two in each hand, and he threw them into the air towards Pinsir.

The bricks flew towards her and her hands glowed white and she punched each one as it came, turning them all to dust and causing it to fall around her, sparkling in the sun and making a beautiful site. "Now use harden". He yelled which she did and she glowed slightly and the sunlight shone off of her giving her elegance as well as beauty.

The whole display made the crowd cheer and cheer and I was suddenly realised that this would be harder than I thought. "(Oh shit)".

"That was an excellent performance showing off your Pokémon's beauty". Said Mr. Contesta.

"Yes". Said Mr. Sukizo. "Remarkable".

"Beautifully done". Said Nurse Joy. "You will go far".

"Now let's see what scores he gets from the judges".

A 9.3 appeared below Mr. Contesta and a 9.5 below Mr. Sukizo. Nurse Joy gave him a 9.8. "And that's a 28.6 for our first contestant". Said Lillian.

Jeffery bowed and exited the stage. "Well done girl". I heard him tell his Pokémon as they walked passed.

"Thank you Jeffy". I heard her say, which caused me to smirk slightly.

"Next up". Said Lillian. "May maple from Hoen".

I looked up when I heard her name to see her run on to the stage. She had on black bike shorts, and orange top and a green bandana, her hair was a light brown and she had a huge smile on her face. She looked like my cousin may but I was confused by her last name seeing as it should have been O'Connor, but it must have been her because I saw Ash and he seemed to be smiling more now.

"Blaziken take the stage". Yelled may, throwing the pokeball and releasing the Pokémon which I realised is the evolved form of vipers Pokémon. "Blaziken use fire spin". Said May to which Blaziken jumped up in the air and spun making a vortex of fire. "Now Use Sky uppercut". She yelled and Blaziken stopped firing the attack and lit its fist up and flew in to the air, breaking through the flames and causing lots of little flames to fall around him. He landed on one knee with his hands spread back behind him. This caused a huge cheer from the crowd, even bigger than the cheer for "Jeffy".

"That was a beautiful". Said Nurse Joy. "Spectacular performance".

"Simply Remarkable". Said Mr. Sukizo.

"Definitely one of my favourite ever performances". Said Mr. Contesta.

"So why don't we find out May's scores".

A 9.5 appeared below Mr. Contesta and a 9.5 below Mr. Sukizo. Nurse Joy gave him a 9.9. "And that's a 28.9 contestant number two". Said Lillian.

The next few were pretty good, especially from a young man with a Haunter and a girl with a Houndoom. Finally it came to me who was second to last.

"And our Second to last contestant is a new comer from Pallet Town". Said Lillian. "Please give it up for Kasper O'Connor".

"That name sounds familiar". I heard May say as I walked passed her".

I walked on to the stage and got a cheer from the crowd. I was wearing my duster and jeans but I had left my whip at the Pokémon centre. I had a hooded top on underneath my duster and the hood was over my head, no one could see my face other than my mouth and chin which I had shaved.

"Alright Blastoise let's get it started". I yelled, throwing the pokeball and appeared on the stage on his back and he spun around before jumping and landing on his feet. The crowd was already cheering like crazy just from that.

We had practiced the entire day before and I had come up with a name for our move. "Let's use Whirlpool". The crowd seemed confused because they had never heard of the move before; even the judges had quizzical looks on their faces.

"Let's go". Said Blastoise as he pulled into his shell and started rapid spin, going in the circles we had practiced yesterday. So far the crowd didn't seem that pleased with the move until Blastoise started using hydro pump and created the spinning water vortex that was going round in circles.

"Now use roar". I yelled.

"Rawr". Roared Blastoise, causing the whirlpool to ripple and glint in the sun that was still shining through.

"Now Get Out of there". I yelled. This was the part I didn't like as I took the perfect timing for it to work. I was lucky this time as Blastoise burst through the water, still roaring. Glistening in the light. At this the crowd gave the biggest cheer I had heard all day.

"Absolutely marvellous". Cried Mr. Contesta, standing up and clapping.

"Remarkable". Said Mr. Sukizo, also clapping.

"That was an amazing show you and your Pokémon put on". Said Nurse Joy. "You should be proud".

"Ok then Judges". Said Lillian. "Let's see the scores".

A 9.8 appeared below Mr. Contesta and a 9.9 below Mr. Sukizo. Nurse Joy gave a perfect 10 "And that's a 29.7 for Kasper". Said Lillian. "The highest score of the day".

"Thank you". I said, bowing to the crowd and judges before walking back to the waiting area.

"The final contestant was a man named Drew. He had green hair and he sent out a beautiful Pokémon called Absol. He had the highest score in the entire contest, scoring an amazing 29.9. He was one to watch out for.

"And that's it for the appeals round". Lillian shouted into the microphone. "We will take a half hour intermission and then we will go on to the battle rounds, the final eight will be announced at the end of the intermission".

And there it goes, the 14th chapter. I never expected to get this far in a story. See you next time. Okiday.
