Pokemon Special High School Edition! 21
Kidnap! (Part I)
All right, the start of the second arc! I'm really excited to embark on this arc, so…Enjoy!
Dear Diary,
Today, I had a lot of fun with Pearl and Dia again. During our Physical Education lesson, Dia had attempted a high jump successfully but somehow manages to fall asleep on the mat where he landed. Pearl who was right behind Dia in the line hastily started his turn despite cries from the teacher to stop. In the end, Pearl landed on top of Dia but much to our surprise, Dia was still sound asleep! After that, we had lunch together and both of them began their daily manzai act which was rather entertaining though Dia was always the one getting beaten up. Pearl said it was all part of the act so he didn't use his full strength but it really didn't look like it…It has been a month since I've enrolled into Poke High and experienced many of the things I wouldn't have been able to understand from just reading heaps of books from the mansion's archive. I've met numerous new friends and they were all friendly and kind towards me. I'm sure I could learn more about this mysterious attachment termed friendship if I spend more time with them. I can't wait! I'm glad Father had granted me permission to enroll in Poke High…I wonder what changed his mind, he was always objective about sending me to a proper school and insisted in hiring a home tutor for my studies.
I wish everyday could always remain this enjoyable ….
Platina gently closes her diary and looks off into the starry dark sky right outside her window. Her silky blue hair wavering in the wind as she walks towards the window. From her mansion on top of a small hill, Platina could see the entire city landscape and during the night, the town is illuminated by twinkling lights coming from the shopping district and the homes of residents living in the town.
"Compared to this dark and desolate mansion, the town looks really pretty. Hmm…it's getting quite late; I suppose its time to retire to my bed."
Platina extends her arms to close the windows and prepares for her beauty sleep. As she laid silently in the dark enclosure of her room, Platina's began her intensive planning for tomorrow.
"Tomorrow Dia's going to continue my cooking lessons; I wonder what type of muffins I should make this time…?"
For Platina, every night before she falls into slumber, she would always set several aims for tomorrow to have the motivation to wake up the next day; she's not a very morning person so Platina's maids would have to force her awake every morning. However, this motivation would soon turn into a desperate wish for help as the dawning of tomorrow becomes her worst nightmare.
The next day soon arrives with no problem whatsoever and the maids are already stationed in Platina's bedroom early in the morning, preparing to wake her up from her deep slumber. For Platina to be awakened, the conventional methods won't work so the maids have devised a three step sure fire way to ensure their master wakes up.
First: Violently shake her; reduces their work stress and there's a sixty percent chance she could wake up, if it fails, proceed to step two.
Two: Prepare Platina for school on her behalf; exercises maximum time management and Platina has a seventy five percent chance of waking up, if this fails, move on to the last step.
Third: Send her to school while she is still asleep; don't want Platina to become a burden since the maids still have to finish their daily chores and Platina will definitely wake up on her way to school.
Strangely, Platina had successfully destroyed the maids plan and manages to still be asleep when they reached the school gate in their black limousine. So they didn't have any choice but to have the two bodyguards carry Platina up to her class, which they actually did. On the way, everyone was staring with opened jaws as the princess made her arrival to the school slung on the shoulders of two muscular looking men in black.
This was definitely a sight you don't see everyday.
Meanwhile, Pearl and Dia was slacking in class after having arrived a bit earlier than usual. Pearl was reading a comic book filled with hilarious skits and scenarios while Dia was stuffing himself with buns he bought from the cafeteria when suddenly the backdoor slides open, revealing the two huge bodyguards with Platina still dead asleep on the their shoulder.
Everyone in class was pretty much in shock as the two bodyguards gently helped Platina to her seat and retreated back out of the class as quietly as they could. Dia drops the bun he was chewing on and Pearl has his jaws hanging from his chin like the rest of the class.
The class was deathly silent as they couldn't process the information of two MIB carrying a girl into a classroom quick enough; more like their brain rejects this situation.
On the other hand, Platina was just beginning to wake up and looks groggily at her surroundings. Pearl and Dia creeps over to Platina who notices their advancement and begins to stare at the duo with a dazed expression. They stopped dead in their tracks as they waited for Platina's next move but for the next whole minute, all she did was continue their staring contest so Pearl decides to be the first to make a move.
"P-Platina? Anyone home?"
Suddenly, Platina hops onto Dia who was taken by surprise causing both of them to fall back onto the floor.
Dia fell on his back with Platina's hands grasped tightly around his waist.
"P-Platina? W-What's wrong…?"
Platina was hugging and snuggling up to Dia as she mumbled various weird names.
"Eh hehe… Penguin…Eheh…My cute little penguin…"
Pearl whips out his paper fan and slams it hard on Platina's head, making a loud smack sound which jolts Platina back to her senses.
"Wake up you! What the hell do you think you are doing?"
Platina surveys her current situation again and immediately leaps back from the fallen Dia who was obviously enjoying the whole thing with a big wide grin plastered on his face.
"Ah…Good morning you two." Platina said it with her usual emotionless expression as though what they saw didn't happen at all.
"Don't 'Good morning you two' me! You were definitely acting strange!"
Platina helped Dia up even though he's still in his happy daze and calmly walks back to her seat.
"It's just your imagination."
Just then, the bell rang signaling the start of their lessons and the end of their conversation about what happened. Dia was seating cozily in his seat happily chewing away on the remaining of his bun which dropped on the floor a while ago. Pearl on the other hand was unsatisfied with Platina's action.
"Meh…somehow I feel annoyed…I wonder…"
Soon, lessons have ended and it was lunch time so the trio proceeded to the rooftop to have their lunches. As usual, Pearl and Dia were practicing their manzai act in front of Platina when they noticed something strange. Normally, Platina's bodyguards will be somewhere close by on the roof watching over the trio but today, they couldn't find them anywhere.
"Hey Platina, where are your bodyguards? Are they on lunch break or something?"
Platina stops eating and places her chopsticks on her lunchbox to reply Pearl.
"Don't be silly. They are hired to keep me under surveillance twenty four seven, so they should be watching over us from somewhere in this building, don't worry about it."
"Hey Platina~ can I have your bacon…? I'm hungry…"
And so, our trio had their lunch as usual…everything was proceeded smoothly until the end of the school where the lurking danger starts to make its move.
While the trio was walking down the hallway towards the home economics room, the bodyguards emerged from the corner of the corridor and approach the gang. However, they looked slightly different from the ones who were guarding Platina for the past few weeks; they were far skinnier and had taller than the previous bodyguards, one of them even have a scar across his right eye, covered by dark shades.
Platina steps forward to address the two bodyguards but it looks like they aren't here to have a friendly chat with the princess. The duo stands upright with their hands behind their back which made Platina looked small compared to them.
"Platinum, your father had requested you to return back home at once for an urgent matter."
"That can't be, Father hadn't informed me of any urgent matter requiring my presence."
"It was a last minute decision missy, so would you please come with us?"
Meanwhile, Pearl and Dia was exchanging glances and whispers about the two bodyguards.
"Hey Dia … they look kind of weird, it's like I've seen them before somewhere."
"Pearl…I don't like the looks of this…I have a very bad feeling in my stomach."
Platina hesitated for a while before agreeing to the duo's demand. She had to meet her father in person to clarify matters.
"All right, I'll come along with you to meet Father. Pearl, Dia, I'll have to take my leave first. I'll see you guys tomorrow."
Platina departs with the two MIB, leaving Pearl and Dia stunned back in the corridor.
Suddenly, Pearl gave out a loud scream at the top of his voice and dragged Dia with him after Platina.
"W-What's wrong Pearl…?"
Pearl grits his teeth and hurriedly explained to Dia about the problem.
"Those two bodyguards! I've seen them in a wanted poster down at the police post before! I don't know what they've to warrant a wanted poster but I'm sure Platina's father won't hire criminals to protect his daughter! Platina's in trouble!"
Dia immediately understood the situation and went along with Pearl where they managed to catch a glimpse of them approaching a black limousine at the back of the cafeteria where there is a carpark that is used for an escape route in case of fire emergencies.
"HEY! GET BACK HERE!"
Pearl screamed at the top of his voice demanding the two bodyguards to stop while they kept running towards them. Platina turns her head after hearing Pearl's voice hollering off behind her but before she could react, she was knocked at the back of her neck, causing her to quickly lose consciousness. One of the MIB carried Platina to their limousine while the other stayed to hold back our heroes.
"LET HER GO!"
The duo charges straight at the lone MIB who also confronted them with a similar greeting. Before they could react, the MIB had reached their blind spots at lightning speed and unleashed a fury of punches before elbow dropping the two of them onto the ground, causing them to scream in pain from the impact of the fall to their heads.
"Heh, you kids have no idea what you're dealing with here huh? If you interfere with our plans again, I'll make sure to thoroughly erase your existence."
By now, the MIB had already stood up and glaring down at the duo that didn't have any strength left from that drop.
Pearl was coughing out saliva while clutching his stomach and Dia was bleeding from the forehead due to the drop.
As the MIB starts to leave the area, he suddenly felt someone clutching his legs restricting his movement. He looked down to find a half dead Dia firmly gripping his legs, refusing to budge at all.
"I-I won't…let…you take….Platina…away from us…"
"Oh? Looks like someone still has some fight left in him huh? Interesting…I'm going to enjoy torturing you." He grabs Dia by the collar and punched him in the abdomen, instantly knocking him unconscious and drags his body to the black limousine.
Pearl was still struggling to maintain his vision and consciousness but he soon succumbs to his injuries and collapsed onto the ground.
"Platina…Dia…."
