Thank you to myraah for reviewing. The rest of you... I have nothing to say.
Lolly: ...Rosetta does not own Pokemon. (I don't think she's very happy... Might want to get her into a better mood, she's scary when she angry. Really scary. You don't want to go there.)
Chapter Twenty Five (Videl's POV)
I wobbled on my feet, limping ago with my arm slung around Touya's shoulders.
"Are you sure you're ok?" Touya asked for the umpteenth time.
(A/N yes, umpteenth is a word XD)
"Touya, I'm fine!" I huffed.
He looked at me, with a mixture of unsureness and concern on his face.
I sighed.
"Well, if it'll stop you nagging I'll ask one of my Pokemon to carry me. Since you obviously can't yourself." I snickered as an lightbulb shone above his head.
"Why didn't I think of that? Here, climb on." Touya bent down to piggyback me.
I blushed, then gingerly got on him and wrapped my arms around him.
He stood up carefully, making sure not to bump me or anything.
Cheren smirked at my blush and I buried my face into the crook of Touya's neck.
"Hey Cheren, stop embarrassing my girlfriend." Touya laughed.
Alder, who was in front of us chuckled at that comment.
"So you and Videl are together now huh?" He stated.
I breathed in Touya's scent. He smelt like the forest, and the sun. Slowly I began to drift off to sleep.
The last thing I heard before fully falling to sleep was Touya saying "She's falling to sleep. Be a bit more quiet."
The ends of my lips curved into a smile as I heard my caring boyfriend.
~Time skip~
I woke up sleepily to a weird kind of pulling feeling in my leg. I blinked a few times.
"You're awake Videl!" Bianca's face showed relief.
"My leg feels weird..." I mumbled, and I glanced at it.
Instead of a nasty gaping wound covered in blood, I was seeing a long, neat, clean line of stitches.
"I did it when you were sleeping so that you wouldn't feel any pain. Sorry." Bianca said sheepishly.
"It's ok." I said in reply.
Bianca began to bandage the stitches up tightly.
"Just in case you move too much and it rips." She explained.
We were at the entrance of the building, where I had kicked down the doors.
Touya was beside me, holding me in a protective embrace.
"He was tired. Fighting against the wind while protecting you and then carrying you all the way here got him exhausted. Lets remember that he's mortal." Bianca said dryly.
"It's my fault... I shouldn't of made him carry me..." I murmured guiltily.
"Touya was willing to carry you though." Bianca said firmly.
"I guess..." I stroked Touya's hair. My eyes suddenly started drooping again.
"It's natural for you to want to sleep. Your body needs time to recover, and it needs to be still and have energy. You've lost a lot of blood." Bianca told me.
"I'll just... Sleep... Then..." I closed my eyes and snuggled my face against Touya's rising and falling chest.
His slow rhythmic heartbeat lulled me to sleep, as I was pulled into the darkness of dreams.
(A/N you like the fluff?)
(Touko's POV)
"Videl isn't gonna like this... But we're gonna take on Landorus by ourselves. She needs to recover no matter what. She's lost too much blood, and I refuse to let her push herself any further." I announced as the third and last genie descend down.
Touya had woken up and still had Videl in his arms.
"I'll protect Videl." He stated.
I smiled a little, then pulled out a Pokeball.
"Samurott! I need your help!" I cried.
N, who was beside me, silently let out his own Pokemon.
"Drill! Exca!"
(A/N Excadrill if you couldn't tell.)
BAlthough his face was devoid of any emotion, he didn't need to have any in the first place. His Pokemon was able to understand what he was feelings without looking at his face.
Next person to throw out their Pokemon was Cheren, closely followed by Bianca and Alder. Touya threw out his Pokemon last.
"Serperior!"
"Mandibuzz!"
"Vanilluxe!"
"Haxorus"
Touya made the first attack.
"Haxorus Giga Impact!"
The rest of us all followed lead.
"Samurott, Hydro Pump!" I ordered.
"Mandibuzz, Dark Pulse!" Bianca commanded.
"Serperior, Leaf Storm!" Cheren, not wanting to be left out shouted.
"Horn Drill." N murmured.
"Vanilluxe Ice Beam!" Alder said calmly.
Landorus dodged some of the whirling attacks sent to it, and countered with some of its own.
The ground started shaking violently and cracks opened in the ground.
"T-this is!.." I gasped and tried to regain my balance.
I knelt on one knee to balance better.
Suddenly, a crack opened right in front of me and began to widen.
I wobbled to my feet to get away but couldn't stand properly and had to drop down again.
I
began to panic and struggled to get up again. The crack crept even closer to me.
"N!" I cried, and immediately I felt I gust of wind sweep me up, then warmth.
I had squeezed my eyes shut, waiting for the inevitable to happen.
"Touko?" I heard a voice call out to me quietly.
"N?" I slowly opened my eyes.
"You ok?" He held me closer to him.
"I-I..." I blinked a few times and felt a slight wetness on my cheeks.
"It's ok Touko it's fine..." N brushed away the tears I didn't know I had been crying with his thumb.
I clung to N's shirt tightly with tears streaming down my face.
N said nothing but hug me let me cry on his shirt, and whispered sweet nothingness to me.
A few minutes later, I stopped crying, but then realised what kind of position N and I was in.
I was sitting on N's lap and were rather intimately close to each other.
A deep red spread through my cheeks as I blushed.
Embarrassed, I looked down quickly.
"S-sorry..." I muttered.
"Heh, anytime." N smirked.
"Don't count on it." I smiled lightly, with a mischievous look.
"Samurott Aqua Tail!"
