Chapter (21): To the Rescue
My eyes narrowed as the Houndoom jumped over us. I closed my eyes again, not wanting to watch what was going to happen to us. I heard the sudden impact sound so I opened my eyes just to see the gleameow slamming the houndoom aside with its tail glowing. He landed on the ground in a cool way while the houndoom was sent, flying backwards. The gleameow somehow seemed to be very confident, smirking. I really didn't know who the cat was but I was pretty relieved to be saved.
"Bullying young ladies is just wrong, Mr. Nasty Puppy…" it said in a male voice. Now I was confirmed that he was a male.
"At least, a kitty is afraid of a doggie." The houndoom sneered but the glameow didn't even flinch. In fact, he smirked.
"Come here, doggie! Come here. Let's go for a walk!" The glameow mocked, causing the houndoom to growl.
"You dare to make a mockery of me! You are so dead!" The Houndoom lunged himself towards the confident cat. The cat then produced many clones of himself which I recognized as Double Team. The Houndoom only caused only one clone to disappear. This glameow was one tough customer. I gave him that. My ears twitched as I heard Buizel grunted.
"Please rest…. We are okay now." I comforted. I was also grateful to Buizel. He risked himself to get my confidence and self esteem as a trainer back into me.
"I guess a little shock will jog your mind, Houndoom." The gleameows said but only one of them released a thunderbolt from his body which I assumed to be the real Gleameow. The Houndoom was paralyzed from the shock and the glameow didn't give him any time to recover since he quickly dashed towards him and gave him an Iron Tail in the back.
"Geez.. you really are tougher than I thought." The Houndoom said as he skidded backwards. He was completely recovered from the paralysis quickly. He then shot a large human-shaped fire at Glameow who dodged it with ease. He then released one more thunderbolt from his body, causing the mongrel to yelp in pain and agony. This time the attack seemed to be fiercer than the last one since the Houndoom actually fell to the ground limply and fainted. I didn't who's the glameow but I owned him my life.
"Thank you… You are pretty strong." I said.
"It is always my pleasure to help a beautiful lady." He said and I blushed. He said I was beautiful. Well, my beauty was even showing off in a mew form. I was blushing now.
"Thank you very much." I said, scratching the back of my head.
"I don't mean you, ugly!"he said and I felt a sudden crack of glass in my mind. A cold wind blew through and I felt as if I was turned to stone.
"I mean you, young miss." He said to Lilly. Lilly then shocked and stared at him with red face.
"He finds a bulbasaur beautiful…" I whimpered so quietly that no one could hear me. Was this some kind of pokemon instinct again? I couldn't say anything.
"Thank you." Lilly said shyly. I knew that a mew was cuter than a bulbasaur but yet he still thought that a bulbasaur was cuter. I really didn't know what I should say now. But I felt as I was suddenly hit down when immediately risen up. This is just too much that I couldn't take it. Then I suddenly remembered. Who was Glameow? He probably didn't have a name anyway. Maybe I should invite him to our little camp.
"Hey, why don't you come with us to our camp?" I invited just to get a suspicious glare.
"How can I trust you, ugly?" he said and I suddenly froze again like a stone sculpture. Even Dylan wouldn't tell me like that.
"I mean, can you come to our camp? We would like to invite you." Lilly said.
"Sure, young beauty. Sorry for being rude since I didn't know she was your friend." Gleameow said and I gave him a raise in eyebrow. Who did he think he was, only flattering Lilly but insulting me. I really didn't like him at all. He was worse than Dylan himself. Thinking of Dylan, I wondered what he was doing now. I better went and check.
"Let's go. There are still others as well." I said seriously and then stammered, showing my anger towards the Gleameow. Gleameow seemed to notice this and approached. He then brushes his swirling tail across my face, causing me to sneeze.
"Look, a little miss is sneezing." He said with laughter and I frowned. I bit his tail and he suddenly jumped.
"Look, a little pussy is hurt." I mocked, laughing, causing Gleameow to growl.
"Don't fight, both of you." Lilly pleaded. I stammered. But then I slowly opened my eyes slightly to check the situation out and saw that Gleameow was holding Lilly's chin with his tail. When did he get there?
"I won't fight if you don't want me to, my beauty." He said. He was just flattering too much and I didn't really like being with this guy. And he seemed to be attracted to Lilly a lot while there was a negative reaction towards me.
After a while of walking back, we finally could see the young kitten like creature still sleeping in his place. HE WAS JUST TOO RELAXED! While we were running for our very lives, he was just sleeping! I really became furious about him. I stomped my way to him. I noticed his tail and stepped on it with my full force, causing him to shout and yelp in pain. I then started to strangle him.
"You, idiotic BASTARD!! Why were you asleep?" I scolded.
"Please…. I cannot answer…." He said, seemed to be dizzy.
"Good riddance!" I said and slammed him to the ground. He rubbed off his forehead in pain and opened his eyes. He became shocked as soon as he saw the gleameow.
"It's you!"
