The old champion!


Chapter 20

Alder's House


We land at the middle dock called Prime Pier in Castelia City.

"Now call me to tell me the results of your gym battle when you go," I tell the kids.

"I will!" Violet yells while sliding off of Reshiram. She pets Reshiram's head then hugs her. "I'll see you later."

"Goodbye, for now," Reshiram replies.

"Don't worry, momma, I'm gonna show Burgh who's boss!" Jason says triumphantly once he's off Zekrom with Roger and Zoroark following him.

I laugh. "I bet you will! I'm certain you will win!"

"Remember we have to train first," Roger says.

"Yeah, we gotta train Pidove!" Violet says.

N, Lucario, and I slide down our dragon's backs and walk up to our children.

"That's right," I say.

"Love you, momma!" Violet says and hugs me.

I hug her back and kiss her forehead. "Love you too."

Then she runs to N. "Love you too, daddy!"

I watch as N tenses then relaxes and hugs her back. "Love you too."

She runs to Lucario and hugs him. "And I can't forget to say I love you too, Lucario!"

He hugs back making sure that the spike on his chest doesn't impale her. "Love you too, kid."

The boys go through the same process and then we wave them all goodbye until we can no longer see them.

"Come on. Let's go see Alder," I say climbing back up Reshiram.

...

We land at the Pokémon Center in Floccesy Town on our dragons trying to make the least amount of noise as possible. Yeah, that didn't stop us from the attention we attracted. I mean who could miss the giant legendary dragon types flying in the sky down to your town. You'd have to be blind or just a total idiot.

We dismount ourselves from our dragons and return them to their pokeballs.

"Any idea where his house is?" Lucario asks me.

"Nope," I say popping the 'p.' "I would guess it's the house that stands out the most."

"Of course..." Lucario says, rolling his eyes.

"I think it would be the one that stands by itself up at the top of the town," N says pointing towards it.

"Good observation," I say and begin making my way up to it.

N and Lucario follow behind.

Lucario walks up closely beside me and links his telepathy with only me. "Why are we visiting Alder?"

"I believe there's something that N wants to tell him," I respond.

"Why do you think that?"

"I have a gut feeling."

"You always say that..."

We arrive at the house and enter the yard to find a battle field laid out front.

"This is unusual," I say, looking around. "If this isn't Alder I don't know what is."

"He's a strange man," Lucario comments.

I look up at the brown worn out house with a blue door and a pokeball sign on top. We make our way up to the door and knock before we enter.

The inside looks like some kinda school. It has 4 tables with 2 cushions at each for seats. 2 tables with 2 red cushions, 1 with 2 green cushions, and 1 with a green and a red cushion.

Seated at the table with the 2 green cushions are students, a nerdy boy and girl, who are staring right at us, eyes almost popping out of their sockets.

At the stage in the front of the room stands Alder who isn't looking our way at the moment but is talking most likely to the students.

"U-uh... Mr. Alder... you have some guests!" the boy calls out.

"I do?" Alder questions and turns around, his purple eyes laying upon us. "Indeed I do! It's wonderful to see you again, it's been such a long time, Champion White and Lucario and... N?!"

I smile. "Nice to see you again too. We're here for a quick visit."

"Likewise," Lucario says.

"I've seen the news," Alder says.

"Yeah, I'm glad that's all cleared up," I say with a sigh.

"You're a mom," Alder says.

I laugh. "I am."

"Nite!" Alder says.

"Oma! Who told you that!?"

"The elite four called me," Alder says.

"Of course they did... Damn..."

"They didn't tell me you were coming though."

"Dunderheads... Anyway, I've only come here to bring N to you. I think there's something that he'd like to tell you."

"Really?" Alder says and looks at N.

"What?" N says and looks at me.

"I know you want to tell him something. At least I would after what happened if I were you," I say, pushing N towards Alder.

N looks as if he's pondering what exactly to say so he doesn't sound stupid. "I guess I would have to say I'm sorry for all the horrible things I did to you. Publicly humiliating you was probably the worst. I felt horrible after I did that. I never meant to harm anyone. I'm sorry for creating holes in the league too from my stairs. I'm so very sorry."

Alder smiles a goofy smile. "Don't worry about it. I forgave you a long time ago. I do appreciate this though."

N sighs, most likely from relief.

"Huge load off your chest, huh?" I ask.

"Yeah..." N says with a smile. "One of the many things I need to say..." He looks at me.

(Is that a hint? Boys are confusing especially this boy!)

"Oh, young love," Alder says with a snicker. "Anyway, I need to get back to teaching. You may stay if you'd like."

"Thanks for the offer but I think I know enough and we need to get going," I say with a sweat drop.

"Suit yourself. Now, where was I?"

We exit the house.

"Where to now?" N asks.

"Don't know, lunch?" I suggest.

"Sounds good," N says.

I look towards Lucario. "I'm gonna take Braviary this time. I wanna give Reshiram a break."

"Yes, master..." Lucario says and I return him to his pokeball. Before I throw out Braviary's pokeball N suddenly hugs me from behind. "N-N?"

"Thank you..." N says.

I smile and turn to look at him, me still in his arms, chest to chest. "I thought you might of needed that."

"It seems you know me more than I know myself."

"Well, I am your best friend and the first at that! I know all to know about you," I say.

"That seems a little unfair. I barely know anything about you," N whines looking down at me still in his grasp.

I wrap my arms around his neck. "Then ask me whatever you want."

"Favorite color?"

"Okay, maybe I don't know everything about you. Mine is blue, like my eyes. What about you?"

"Same. Blue like the ocean in your eyes."

My face flushes. "You're such a flirt!"

"It's true. Your eyes are your best feature. Next is your hair, then your..." he fades out and his face flushes.

I gasp. "Perv!" I shout and punch his chest playfully. "Men!"

{[(I wanted to say her chest isn't small... Pretty perfect body let's just say.)]}

He laughs shyly. "Yeah... Sorry..."

"No, it's to be expected," I laugh. "All men, even you... I didn't really expect it from you. Those two years you were gone really matured you into an actual guy."

We laugh, still embraced.

"I guess so."

"So where should we go eat... Undella Town?" I suggest.

"Sounds good to me," N replies.

"I don't really wanna move, I like this," I admit.

"I do too."

"But sadly things can't last forever," I say, peck his cheek, and get out of his grasp. I pull out Braviary's pokeball and call him out.

"Brav!"

(I can't believe I just did that!)

N brings out Zekrom and we get on our Pokémon.

"To Undella Town, Braviary."

He nods and takes flight.


Sorry it's short, I kinda lost motivation!
