Chapter 14

Totodile

Chris looked back as they walk away. "Well he was rather… pleasant."

Jasmine agreed with his sarcasm, "He's not usually this way. Something must have really tied his lab coat in a knot. Maybe it's what I told him about your f-" she cut off midsentence, and gave a nervous laugh. "That's nothing to worry about."

Chris opened his mouth to ask, but Jasmine waved her hand and attempted to change the subject, "Why is Totodile still in his pokeball?"

Chris realized that she was keeping something from him for a reason, and shrugged, "I always thought that they were supposed to stay in their pokeballs."

Jasmine laughed, "Maybe in Sinnoh, but here in Johto, we do things differently. The first Pokémon in the party always walks with the trainer."

She pointed up, to where her Magnezone hovered behind her. Chris sighed, and said "this might not work, but all right. Go, Totodile!"

The blue crocodile looked up at his trainer, and sized him up.

The small Pokémon then plopped onto its rear, adamantly refusing to move.

Chris sighed " Ah, Murphy's law. I knew something would go wrong." He looked down to the Pokémon. "Okay, Totodile. Why do you want to sit here like this?" Totodile looked up at his trainer, beckoned him to lower his head, and opened his mouth to…

Douse Chris completely with water gun. Chris dried his face off, and stood. "I didn't want to do this, but you've forced me…" Chris whispers.

"What? What has he forced you to do? Don't do anything rash, Chris. This is the Pokémon that you are training, and he needs you to take care of him." Jasmine said, concerned.

Chris nodded, "I know that. I promise that I won't hurt him."

Okay... Too short. One more for the day.

xD Totodile... The little guy is too adorable.
