My mind was tumbling over bits of information

My mind was tumbling over bits of information. Articuno had a child, Sarah was Articuno elder (along with Charles girlfriend) and Charles knew about the legend of the necklace.

Flashback

"Before pokemon were tamed" Charles told me. When Sarah and Lucas and gone "the whole world was ruled by one man, the king. He had control over the pokemon because of his ability to summon the power of the legends. One girl wasn't scared of pokemon like everyone else. She had a special ability too. She understood the pokemon and they accept her refusing to hurt her. Finally the girl fought the king using the pokemon she had come to love. When she freed the legends they gave her a necklace with in holding their powers. The pokemon called her the princess. The princess of pokemon."

"Beth go to sleep we're leaving tomorrow. Your next contest is over a mountain range you need rest." Umbreon said. And curled up by my legs. I closed my eyes and watched the shadows dance behind my lids.

Two day later

After the cold hike up the mountain(the cable car runs at the next mountain.) the valley below made up for everything. The hot spring blew steam in my face and slowly I sank into the heated water, closing my eyes, and tilting my head onto a headrest. I heard Milotic start to snooze. For such an energetic pokemon she sure does sleep a lot. Chikorita and Umbreon were sleepy too, both on the edge of the water.

I heard a faint ringing of a bell. Slowly the noises drew closer, and when I opened my eyes a Chingling was looking at me. I was too relaxed to hear him speak, but the ringing was consisted and I contracted.

"Are you a trainer?" Chingling asked me. "And the Princess?"

I nodded still looking at him upside down.

"Take me with you." He said in almost command. For an eight-inch pokemon it sure was bossy. At this point Umbreon managed to shake herself awake and was sleepy siting next to my head.

I turned over and rested my head in my arms. What was it with pokemon and asking me to take them for traveling? Most trainers catch their pokemon but mine? They catch me. "You sure? I mean aren't you the owner of the Hot Springs pokemon?"

"No, the Chimecho and Chingling are here on our own free will. Most are here just because its so peaceful but I'm here to find a trainer." The little bell pokemon answered. His black eyes were starring in my hazel. After a second he said. "Look I'm special I know a Chimecho move."

"How is that possible?" I asked. Then again how is it possible I'm having this conversation? Of course mine is prophecy and his is a DNA issue.

"I-I" He stuttered. I heard the ringing of his orb. "I touched a stone, like the one on your necklace. And I-I I suddenly was doing heal bell!" he babbled out.

I turned my head and looked at Umbreon. Her head drooped sleepily. "What do you think, sleepy? I mean its not I'm exactly normal."

Umbreon yawn, stretched then circled Chingling. She did this to Lucas's new Altaria, when it flew up to us in the mountains. When she finished she plopped down next to me and nodded. Then went right back to sleep.

I nodded to Chingling and got out of the water, my two piece bath suit not keeping me too warm. I ransack my bag and pulled out an empty pokeball. I enlarged it with my thumb and looked at Chingling.

"You hardly know me and I might not even be the princess." I said hoping he wasn't stupid. I really wanted Chingling but I wanted him on his own free will.

"Yeah sure you're not the princess." I think he rolled his eyes but their too small to know.

"Do you realized the danger that comes with it?" Milotic said half awake. Chingling nodded and I threw the pokeball.

There was a red light and a few seconds later a recently captured Chingling was curling up next to Chikorita. He was smiling a he slept to a fanit jingling coming from his throat.
