Me: A random hike to get to Laverre City. My only news is, what do you guys think of the Sun/Moon Chinese rumors? If the starters are real, then I'm gonna cheer so loudly, because they look awesome! Anyways, on with the chapter!

Bonnie's POV

Time for us to go to Laverre City. If we got to the gate at 9AM, we'd get to Laverre City by 6PM. "Well Bonnie, the rest of the journey may be really difficult. If you ever need a safe place, you can always come home" Clemont told me. "Don't worry big brother I'll be okay!" I reassured him. Then, Max and I went to the Route 14 gate. It took us almost an hour, but at about 9AM, we got there and started our walk through Route 14.

It was a swamp of some kind. And we had to endure a 10 hour walk of this horrible smell. We walked in the nasty swamps of the area. We came across many wild Pokemon. One of which caught Max's interest.

Max's POV

I found a wild Pokemon that had really caught my interest. I wanted to catch it. It was called Sliggoo. It was a dragon type that was really powerful once it evolved. I'd heard from many people who I've seen battle with it.

Max: Alright Vikavolt use Thunderbolt!
Sliggoo: Sliggoo?

Sliggoo went flying into a tree. But it got up.

Sliggoo: Sliggoo!|
Max: Quick Vikavolt use Bug Bite!

Vikavolt dodged its Dragon Pulse and bit it.

Max: Alright! Pokeball go!

I threw a Pokeball at Sliggoo. It shook for about 10 seconds, but then clicked. I caught the Sliggoo. "Alright! I caught a Sliggoo!" I cheered. "Well, you've got a new Pokemon Max!" Bonnie shouted. "Well, I need 6 Pokemon for the league. I still need 2 more…" I told her. "Well, I need only 3 for the Kalos Queen Cup, so I'm good" Bonnie told me.

We kept walking for another 9 hours, until it was about 3PM. We came across a man's house. We knocked on the door to ask if he had any food. He opened the door fairly quickly. "Why hello there. Care to hear a story?" the man asked us. "Actually… we were hoping that you could spare us a bit of food. We made a bad mistake of forgetting to pack food" I told him. "Come inside. While I tell you the story, I'll get you some sandwiches" the man told us. We went inside, and he took a few minutes to make us sandwiches. We bit in, and this man REALLY knew how to cook! "Now… for the story…" the man started.

"It was a dark and stormy night many years ago. Lost, I arrived at this house and went inside. The lights would not turn on, so I fearfully looked around the house.

Eventually I made my way into the kitchen. There was no sign of anyone being there… I found the fridge, and when I opened it, a faint light leaked out. I could finally make out my surroundings. And I saw a faint outline of a man huddling in the corner of the room.

I tried to tell him that I was lost and I was hoping he'd let me stay until morning, but when I approached him… The man suddenly screamed, 'stay back!' I apologized and continued to plead my case. 'Please, can't you help me?' I asked him. 'I'm not talking to you!' he shouted. I looked at the man in surprise. When I did this, the man asked me… 'Can't you see them? Behind you! A horde of faceless men!'.

The man stopped telling the story. "Now, since I fed you those amazing sandwiches, and told you that marvelous story, that'll be 45 pokedollars" the man finished. "What!?" Bonnie exclaimed. "No, I'm just kidding. Have a great day kids" the man said. "Thank you for the food and the good story sir!" I told him as we left. We were right outside the city now, and I wanted to get there fast.

After about another half hour of walking, we reached Laverre City. We reached the Pokemon Center and decided to relax. Well, Bonnie did at least. I went to train my new Pokemon and my old ones too. "Alright! Come on out guys!" I sent them out. We began training for the next 4-5 hours.

Me: Guys, hold up. This the 26th chapter of 52… that means, half the story's been published! Also, just letting you know, the Team Flare Arc starts NEXT CHAPTER! Also, those rumors I was talking about have an effect on what my story plan is now, since right now I'm convinced they're real. Anyways, peace.
