Spring has come around once again as Shawn and family enjoy their relaxing day. Unfortunately for Phoenix as she came down with a flu ruining her day with her family. Will she overcome this common flu. Let's find out…
Shawn, Zeya, and Abby were in the kitchen getting prepared for their usual planned schedule for the day. Zeya was feeding Abby while Shawn was cooking breakfast for everyone. The usual eggs and bacon. When he finished he handed a plate to Zeya and set his and Phoenix's down.
"Thanks for feeding Abby, Zeya."
"Anytime Daddy, I always love taking care of her whenever I can." Zeya smiled.
"Hey Phoenix breakfast is ready!" Shawn called out.
Phoenix slowly came down to the kitchen with just her night robe on and didn't look all that well despite this she tried her best to hide it.
"Morning." Shawn and Zeya greeted.
"Morning." Phoenix greeted weekly as she took a seat and moaned a little as she felt her body ache.
"Are you okay mom?" Zeya asked as she was the first to notice something was off.
"I'm fine baby just a little tired that's all." Phoenix weekly smiled.
Shawn noticed something was off and grew concerned. "Phoenix are you sure you look a little pale."
"I'm fine Shawn really." she answered.
"...Okay...um, I made breakfast, just the way you like it." Shawn mentions as he hands her a plate.
Phoenix looked at it a little and felt her stomach twirl painfully. She tried to take a sniff but ended up coughing.
"Phoenix? Honey?" Shawn asked now growing concerned.
"Don't worry Shawn it looks delicious as always." she gave him a weak smile as she tried taking a bite of eggs. The moment she did her eyes shot open with her pupils shrinking. Immediately she grabbed her beak and ran straight to the bathroom where she started vomiting painfully.
"Phoenix!" Shawn yelled in fear as he rushed after Phoenix.
When he got to the door he found it was locked as he heard Phoenix puking and coughing badly on the other side of the door. Zeya followed as she heard the same thing.
"Mom, are you okay?" Zeya asks worryingly.
The only answer she got was the sounds of her mother vomiting and still coughing hard.
"Phoenix what's wrong, let me in please." Shawn begged.
Shawn knocked on the door but Phoenix refused to open the door.
"N-No. I don't want you, Zeya or Abby to catch it." Phoenix answers weakly.
"Phoenix, please let me in." Shawn asked as he gently motioned for Zeya to leave so she may not catch whatever Phoenix has.
"Alright but let this be warning if you get it."
"I've been through worse now let me in to check on you." Shawn answered seriously but also deeply concerned.
Phoenix unlocks the door as he opens it slowly. He sees Phoenix laying her head on the toilet seat as if she had a hangover, groaning.
"I don't feel so good…" she moaned weakly.
"I can tell." Shawn answers as he kneels to her while rubbing her back.
"Please don't, I don't want you to catch it. I don't want any of you to catch it. It could be serious." she moaned.
"Phoenix, I've been through worse. I've been shot and been injured by that Albino Lucario. Catching this flu will be no different."
"But Shawn…"
"No buts, now let me get you back up to bed." Shawn states as he picks her up bridal style softly.
"What about Zeya and Abby. I can't have them in the house while I'm this badly sick. I don't want them to catch it." Phoenix mentions.
"I'll take care of it just please take it easy." Shawn whispered softly as he carried her to their bedroom and layed her on the bed.
After which he picked up his phone and made a call. "Nero? Hey it's me, look I need some help here. Phoenix's got some kind of flu and we can't have our girls catch it. So can you and Tera watch them at your place until I take Phoenix to the Pokemon Center and get her better. Thanks bro, bye."
Shawn hangs up the phone.
"So he'll do it?" Phoenix asks.
Shawn pulls up a seat and sits close to her while softly rubbing her head with his hand.
"Yeah don't worry they'll be very safe I promise. Now I need you to take it easy while I get ready to take you to see Nurse Joy." Shawn answered.
"Okay. Shawn?"
"Yes sweety?" Shawn asked holding her softly.
"This reminds of like when we met. You aiding me to my health again. Doesn't it bring back memories?" She asks then coughs a bit.
"I know, please try not to talk, take it slow and easy. That vomit you let out looked serious and that coughs sounds really bad." he smiled and kissed her forehead, not caring if he catches it.
Shawn heard his front door open. "Hey Shawn it's me Hyro, dad sent me to pick Abby and Zeya up for you." Hyro called out.
Shawn walks down to see them. "Keep your voice down. Phoenix is trying to rest and thanks."
Hyro hands something to Shawn. "Mom wanted me to give you this. It's something we take when we get bad sick. It won't do much but it will help her sleep and rest better without being bothered by whatever she has." he tells him.
"Thanks I guess." Shawn thanks questionable.
"Hope she feels better, and don't worry we'll take care of them, you have my word Uncle Shawn." Hyro smiled.
"Of course. I know." Shawn smiled back and playfully punched him in the shoulder. "You girls have a good time." He kisses both of them on their foreheads.
"Is mom going to be okay?" Zeya asked.
"She will Zeya. Trust me okay." He says while rubbing her cheek gently.
Zeya nods and softly picks Abby up and exits the house with Hyro. Once they were gone, Shawn walked back into his bedroom to see Phoenix vomiting in a plastic bag roughly.
"Hey there Phoenix." Shawn greets as he rubs her forehead. Phoenix finishes vomiting and tries to talk but Shawn softly stops her. "Take it easy don't hurt yourself. Here, Hyro brought something for you that's suppose to help."
Shawn pulls out the container of liquid medicine. He opens it which had a small spoon in it attached. He scoops up a small amount and gently fed it to Phoenix. Phoenix felt the horrible taste in her mouth but it did not last too long as she was already feeling the immediate effects of it making her sleepy.
"You'll be okay, Phoenix. I promise." Shawn says to himself as he kisses her forehead.
Phoenix closes her eyes to get some sleep. After which Shawn got up and made another call on his phone.
"Is this Nurse Joy of the Lumiose Pokemon Center? Hi my name is Shawn Kaiser, my wife Phoenix is a Blaziken as she's got something like the flu or something and it's really bad. I like to set up an appointment with the doctor as soon and fast as possible to have her checked please. Alright, thank you, we'll be there shortly. Bye." Shawn hangs up the phone and goes to the bathroom to get ready to take Phoenix.
Zeya and Hyro were walking down the street towards Nero's house while Zeya was holding Abby. Zeya was deep at thought about what happened and prayed to Arceus that her mother was doing better. Hyro must've sensed her anxiety, walked over to her and held her hand softly.
"She'll be fine Zeya, Aunt Phoenix has been through worse so this should be a walk in the park for her." he tried to say to comfort her.
"Yeah. Hopefully that can take my mind off of it." Zeya answers while smiling slightly.
"Here let me take Abby for you." Hyro offered.
Zeya nods and let's Hyro hold Abby.
"Thank you." She smiles and kisses him on the cheek.
"Hey Abby how're you doing this morning, hard at work at being cute as always?" Hyro asked with a friendly smile.
Abby giggled and played with Hyro's nose a little. Making Hyro chuckle at her antiques.
"Well she tries and always does better than me." Zeya answers and giggles a bit.
"Aw shucks I don't mind. Come to think of it. Back when I was a Riolu we used to play allot when I was very little and before I had my early puberty evolve." Hyro joked.
"Oh yeah. I remember that. You were so cute the first time I saw you and now… here we are. Do you find it a bit weird?" She asks while fiddling with her fingers.
"In a way yeah. Because in one year we've went from you being my baby sitter to now my girlfriend." he laughed a little himself.
"Yeah." she laughs a little bit but a little nervous.
"And I admit, even when I was very little, I still found you to be very beautiful as I still do now." he answered with a blush on his face. "It's just I didn't develop...feelings for you until I evolved and hit puberty so to speak."
"Oh shucks I wasn't that pretty…" she laughed a little.
"I wasn't talk about the outside. You were always so kind, nice, and sweet. I always loved being around you because you were just such a wonderful person. When I said I didn't develop feeling for you until I hit puberty, I was refering to I didn't find you physically attractive until I became a teen. When I did I thought well...read this." Hyro hands Zeya a piece of paper.
Zeya opens it and begins reading.
"Pokemon grow fast in life. They don't experience childhood as long as humans do. As such they go through the problems of real life faster than humans. Which is why in some cases humans can be envied in many ways. One of the harshest parts of reality is finding beauty. In life, most believe there's only two forms of beauty. One where a person is beautiful on the outside but not in the inside. And another where one is beautiful on the inside and not the outside. But not me, in the short time I have been thrown into the harsh parts of real life I have known a third form. A form where one is beautiful on both the inside and the outside, which I like to call true beauty. My mom is one such true beauty, my aunt Phoenix is another, but most recognizable of all to me is my former babysitter and now girlfriend Zeya. For she has always been beautiful on the inside ever since I was very little. And it wasn't until I evolved into the harsh real world that I saw that she was just as beautiful on the outside just as she was in the inside just like my mom, my aunt Phoenix, and many other beautiful women I have known." Zeya read. She looked at Hyro in surprise as his face turned red.
"You wrote this?" she asked.
"Yep. Sorry if it stinks." Hyro answered.
She hugs him tightly and kisses him on the lips romantically and deeply. She then separates and looks into his eyes. "That was most heart warming and most romantic thing you have ever written."
"Yeah it was my first try, took me five hours to write it." he confessed.
"And it was worth the five hours." She smiled and hugs him.
Abby felt squeezed up a little being in the center of their hug and groaned and moved around uncomfortably in Hyro's arms. Zeya eased up a bit on Abby.
"Oh sorry." Zeya says to Abby and giggles a bit.
"There you kids are, is Phoenix doing better. Hyro honey you did remember to give Shawn that medicine right?" they heard Tera call out as they arrived at Hyro's house.
"Yes mom. I gave them the medicine you talked about." Hyro answers.
"Good boy. How did she look before you left?" Tera asked Zeya as Hyro handing her Abby.
"Mom looked very awful. Daddy is gonna take her to the Pokemon Center." Zeya answered.
"I hope she get's better, from the sound of things it sounds like she may have the flu or something just as bad. And we don't want you two catching it now do we?" Tera acknowledges.
"Yes Mrs. Tera. We know." Zeya answers.
The four walk inside the house to get everything settled. Hyro notices Nero isn't around and looks back towards his mother. "Hey Mom, where's dad?"
"Oh he went to the store to see if he could find any other medicine for Phoenix that could work. He should be back a little later." Tera answered.
"Is it okay to send him by himself? You know how he tends to get into trouble." Hyro asked.
"Sweetie, your father has learned his lesson. He can't get into trouble now." Tera answers.
Meanwhile, Nero waited in line at a drugstore to buy some medicine that could hopefully help with Phoenix. As he stood in the long line he felt himself bored just waiting so he decided to look around to see if he could find anything to take his mind off of things.
At the corner of his eye he saw a young Mightyena that looked as if he was 18 years old. He had green eyes and spiky black hair that he kept unkempt as it hangs over his forehead as the back of his hair reaches over the back of his neck. He had a lean yet very muscular build that looked like in the peak of physical condition. His outfit consisted of a with a sleeveless black jacket with a red tribal design on the back over a plain grey hoodie. Accompanied by this he wears black fingerless gloves with metallic additions remaining brass knuckles, faded jeans, and black steel toe combat boots. From what Nero could tell he recognized that tribal red mark on his sleeveless black jacket. It was the mark of the Yveltal Gang who are infamously notorious for causing mass destruction to public property in gang wars.
However Nero tried not to pay no mind to the young gang boy as he didn't look like he was wanting to cause any trouble. Suddenly a muscular Typhlosion who was more muscular than the human dropped in. He was dressed in black camouflage jeans, boots, a tank top, MMA gloves, and wore a black sleeveless jacket with the same Tribal gang mark. He looked over to the young Mightyena with the same gang mark. The Typhlosion walked over and layed back on the shelf next to the human gang member.
"The Cobalions are at again. Shit stains don't know when to give up." the Typhlosion alerted the human.
The Mightyena simply smirked a wicked smirk.
"Then let's remind the shit stains whose turf this belongs to. Is the Gang ready?" the mightyena asked.
"All ready outside on your orders Fang." he answered.
"Good work Ash."
The Mightyena now identified as Fang turns around and starts walking off, with the Typhlosion named Ash follows him.
"Hey Sarek we're off!" Fang called out.
Suddenly a Sceptile in a Light Brown and green leather shirt, necklace with a skull and star pendant, cowboy hat with a eagle feather on the head, brown leather fingerless gloves, blue belted jeans with a big silver buckle, brown leather chaps with orange flame-like designs and dark brown steel-capped leather cowboy boots with spurs appears. He wore the gang's black sleeveless jacket with the gang mark on the back. He had a few cans of beers with him and tosses them over to Fang and Ash.
"Hey you punks you're not old enough to be drinking those!" one of the cashiers calls out.
Sarek simply burps loudly to echos across the store.
"Fuck you." Ash calls out while Fang flips the middle finger back. He along with Ash and Sarek laugh out loud and walk out.
"Punk kids. No respect today." Nero mumbles to himself.
Meanwhile outside at the parking lot, several if not much more young adult teens hung around either smoking or drinking close to their Kawasaki Ninja 300 motorcycles. Like their sleevless black jackets, their motorcycles had the red tribal mark representing the Yveltal Gang. Some of them at the moment were looting Nero's car of anything that it could be worth. One member who was a Dragalge who wore blue jeans, long dark boots, a navy blue shirt, and some gloves. Finally to complete his look he also wore the gang's signature sleeveless black jacket with the gang's mark on the back.
The Dragalge used his poison to melt some parts of Nero's dodge charger in order to make taking it apart much easier. One gang member even sprayed painted the Gang's symbol on the doors. Around that time, Fang, Ash, and Sarek came walking in.
"Ready to go to war Tveltals?" Fang asked the gang.
"Alright let's hit it!" Ash encouraged.
The Dragalge hopped down and walked up to his motorcycle while everyone else dumped their trash as Nero's busted up taken to pieces car.
"Hey Connor found anything from this piece of shit?" Sarek asked as he started up his motorcycle.
"It's like you said, a piece of shit. Though it does make use for a good trash can and to take a piss on." the Dragalge named Connor joked.
Fang and Ash get on their bikes and started them up. Out of all of their bikes, Fang's was the most heavily customized with high tech gear and equipment. Around that time Nero came out with the medicine he bought and sees all the Yveltals at his now destroyed and ruin car.
"Hey! What the fuck did you do to my car?!" Nero yells at them.
"Was your car old ass!" Ash yelled back as they all started takeing off. Connor threw a molotov cocktail at Nero's car to make it explode and set on fire along with setting a few other cars on fire. The gang all laugh and cheer in excitement as they all drive off top speed.
"Are you fucking kidding me?" Nero says stressfully.
Nero walks over to his now destroyed car as he sees what's left of it. While watching it burn away he saw the gang had also littered all over it and wrote their gang symbol in graffiti art along with other things calling the car, "Piece of shit" or "Trash."
Nero dials for Glukhov and waits for an answer. He picks up.
"Hello?" Glukhov asks over the phone.
"Glukhov you will not believe what just happened." Nero says.
"What is it this time Nero? You didn't piss Koda off again did you?" Glukhov asked him.
"No it's not that. Remember the car you gave me after we saved Phoenix?" He asks nervously.
"What about it?" Glukhov asked confused.
Nero gulps nervously. "Well… some punk gang destroyed the car while I was buying medicine."
"So you're telling me some punk ass gang tore the car into pieces?" Glukhov asks.
"Yes…That and they threw their garbage at it, pissed all over it, called it old, trash, piece of shit, and then they blew it up and set it on fire." Nero answers nervously.
"No problem." Glukhov answers calmy.
"Wait what?" Nero asks confusingly.
"I said it's no problem. I've built my cars to be superior with Russian armor and power. I've come prepared."
"So you're cool about this?" Nero asks.
"Well not exactly. I'm quite pissed off that some fucking kids ruined my car but I've come prepared. Tell me where you are." Glukhov requests.
"At the drugstore. I just picked up my order and came out just as these punks destroyed the car. I think they're riding off to do some gang war or something." Nero answers.
"I'm on my way." Glukhov hangs up.
Nero hangs up and sighs. He starts dialing for another number.
Meanwhile, Shawn had just finished getting dressed and ready. he walked over to Phoenix and saw she was resting but still having some hard time due to either coughing or moaning from the achy feeling.
Shawn gently and softly picked her up bridal style, walked outside to their garage and sets her in the passenger seat of the truck. He also placed a pillow behind her head so she could rest on the way there. Once done, he hops in, turns over the truck and starts driving off.
Almost as soon as they started driving off, Phoenix woke up slightly and tried getting up but felt her whole body ache so bad it was becoming unbearable.
"Don't get up, Phoenix. Rest until we get to the Pokemon Center." Shawn says as he gently pushes her back down. He then fixes the seat and flattens it down like a bed to make her comfortable.
"I'm so sorry for this Shawn…" she moaned in aching pain.
"You have nothing to be sorry about Phoenix."
"I didn't think it would get this bad I just thought it was just going to be just a tiny little cold that I could sleep off." she answered while coughing every now and then.
"Don't worry about it now. You'll get better when we get there."
Phoenix smiled and went to sleep on the seat, trying to get comfortable as best as her flu would let her.
Shawn saw a stop light flash green so he continued driving. Almost as if instantly he saw a motorcycle gang of teens all ride their cycles hard down the right away, followed by another different motorcycle gang. He recognized the black ones with the red tribal marks as the Tveltals. While the ones with the blue and brown colors and with the Cobalion head crests in various other bikes as the Cobalions.
The two motorcycle gangs raced hard against each other with one Tveltal throwing a grenade at some cars close to Shawn and Phoenix to blow the stop light up and have it crash on the road. Causing a few Cobalion members to crash and be sent flying across the road to land roughly on the cement ground. Shawn manage to avoid the stop light and pulled over to let them pass he doesn't get caught in the crossfire.
"What the fuck?" Shawn asks himself.
"Shawn, what's going on?" Phoenix asks weakly.
"Sorry honey. Some punk gang on bikes were in a middle of a fight and we nearly got caught in it. More importantly are you okay?" Shawn asks.
"I'm fine, don't mind me." she smiled and gave him a thumbs up.
"Okay. Now back to the Pokemon Center." Shawn says as he continues down the road to the Pokemon Center.
Back at Nero's house, Tera was giving Abby a bath and was washing her softly. Abby cooed as Tera was washing her hair and both of them were playing with the bubbles a bit.
"You're gonna be nice and clean when you see Phoenix again." Tera says to Abby.
"Hey mom, dad's on the phone and he says you're gonna want to hear what he needs to tell you." Hyro came in while handing the phone to Tera.
"Okay, Zeya can you take over for me please." Tera asked.
"Sure." Zeya walks over and helps bathe Abby.
"Hello?"
"Hey Tera." Nero says over the phone.
"Hey honey. Did you get the medicine like I said?" Tera asks.
"Um, yeah but...something happened…" he answered.
"What's wrong honey?" She asks concernedly.
"Remember that car that Glukhov gave us when we rescued Phoenix? You know, my car?" Nero asked.
"Yeah. What about it?" She asks.
"It's officially junk yard scrap now. As in, it got destroyed." he answered.
"What? How?" Tera asks curiously.
"I was there just mining my own business buying the medicine not doing anything to cause anyone or thing trouble. And when I walked out these motorcyle gang punks were looting it and calling it all kinds of names like old and trash. And to add insult to the already salt rubbed injury they blew it up and set it on fire." he answered.
"I don't care about the car. I wanna know if you're okay."
"Oh I'm fine, the only thing they did to me personally was destroy my pride. One punk had the nerve to call me an old ass." Nero answered.
"Swallow your Pride. I only care about you, Nero. If you were gone… I don't know what I do without you…" She begins sniffling a bit.
"Look sweetie I didn't mean to scare I just called to let you know I'm alive and well and fine. But I maybe back later and we're probably going to be without a car for a little while. But all and all I'm okay please don't get upset." Nero tells her.
"That's all I wanted to know, Nero. Screw the car. I only care about you." She says as she wipes her eyes.
"Honey, please don't say screw the car. These guys really wrote some hurtful stuff on it that was almost like referring it to me. I'm fine but I'm kind of hurt emotionally know what I mean." Nero sighed.
"Nero… what's more important? Your car or your life?"
"My life of course it's just… the whole sticks and stone saying doesn't have a meaning at what I was just insulted with." Nero sighed.
"Nero, words can't hurt you unless you let it get the best of you. If was the public trying to humiliate you then that would be a whole different story. But these were just punk kids that don't know anything better."
"I guess, Glukhov is gonna pick me up soon and I'll be there as fast as I can and hopefully by the time Shawn comes back with Phoenix from the Pokemon Center. Love you and stay safe, no telling what these punks hope to accomplish tonight." Nero hangs up.
Tera hangs up and hands the phone back to Hyro as she goes back to washing Abby.
"Mom, is everything okay?" Hyro asks.
"Everything is fine sweetie, your father just had a run in with a few kids that tore up his car but he's safe and sound and that's all that matters." she answers.
"Okay, I'm glad he's okay."
At the Pokemon Center, Shawn and Phoenix were in the waiting room to be called. Phoenix was having a serious case with the chills and was shivering intensively, despite she was still in her robe. Shawn took his jacket off and wrapped around her.
"Thank you…" she said softly while her teeth and beak jittered a little.
"Your welcome." Shawn smiled.
Outside everyone heard the two motorcycle gangs continued racing against each other. Most of the people there tried ignoring them until they saw them crashing each other into different vehicles at the parking lot or something.
"What the hell is that?" Shawn wonders.
"It's those damn street punks again. The Tveltals and the Cobalions." one patient answered who happened to be sitting next to them.
"I've lived in this city all of my life and I never knew them this entire time. You know them?" Shawn asks.
"The better question would who doesn't know them. The Tveltals are infamously notorious for always causing massive public destruction in their gang wars with whoever." Another patient answered.
A nurse joy soon stepped out. "Mrs. Phoenix." she called for.
"That's us." Shawn answers as they both got up and walked over to her. The Nurse Joy lead them into their own room and had Phoenix sit down on the bed.
"So what seems to be the problem?" she asked.
"My wife, Phoenix. She came down with some kind of flu. She's been coughing and vomiting badly all day. And just now she's starting to get the chills" Shawn answers.
Nurse Joy checks Phoenix's eyes, her mouth, ears and nose. Taking notice that she was beginning to look pale.
"Any other symptoms?" she asked as she began checking Phoenix's temperature.
"Her body is also very achy like sore like." Shawn answered.
Joy finished inspecting her body temperature and saw the results. "Oh my Arceus, her body temperature is 60.8." Joy alerts.
"Is it that bad?" Phoenix asks weakly then coughs a bit.
"Yeah it looks that bad. Let me get a small blood sample and maybe we'll see what's wrong I mean goodness gracious." Joy answers as takes a small prick at her finger to get a blood sample. "Be back shortly." Joy tells her as she exits to get some results.
Phoenix was about to say something but she immediately had to vomit in a trash can while coughing up a serious storm and shaking like she's shivering while moaning in aching body pain.
"Don't worry, Phoenix. You'll get better. I know it." Shawn says as he kisses her forehead.
"It hurts…" she moaned.
"I know just take it easy okay." Shawn holds her stomach gently.
Nurse Joy finally came back this time with a few shots with her. "Well Phoenix you the Poke Flu. A pokemon equivalent to the human flu. Humans can't catch it but it is contagious to other pokemon. Do you have any other pokemon family or friends who have had contact with you?" she asked.
"Yes we have greninja daughter, Zeya." Shawn answers.
"How much contact has she had with Phoenix?" she asked next.
"She hasn't touched her once all day." He answers.
"I see, well to be safe please bring her here tomorrow for a check up tomorrow. In the meantime I'm going to give Phoenix something that should make her feel allot better and no longer contagious. She'll still need to take some medicine but this will help her sleep better and hardly notice any of the symptoms. Thing is, they're going to be two shots to the butt, and they are going to hurt like serious and she'll be unable to move or walk for the day and maybe tomorrow while her body tries to adjust to the medicine and help get rid of the bug." Joy alerts them.
"Will you be okay, Phoenix?" Shawn asks.
"At this point I don't care if it knocks me out for a week just please do something about it. I don't want my Zeya to catch it or anyone I know." Phoenix says as she turned around to lay on her chest and moved her pajama pants down slightly to let nurse joy start.
"Okay Nurse Joy. Go ahead." Shawn approves.
Nurse Joy took the first shot and stuck Ember's upper right cheek to begin inserting the liquid into her body. Phoenix had to hold her beak down as it hurt like absolute hell. It took half a minute before Joy finished and inserted the next one into her left cheek. It hurt so much that Phoenix had tears forming from her eyes as they poured down her cheeks for hurting so much. After another half a minute, Joy finished and bandage the places where she made the insertions.
"Okay just give it a minute to work and you'll start to feel much better. I will be right back with your prescription for your medicine." Joy says softly before exiting the room.
Phoenix actually felt like crying because the shots really did hurt. Whatever was in them really must be serious, serious strong medicine to hurt this much.
"It's okay, Phoenix. It was worth it for Zeya's sake of health, and of course yours as well." Shawn says as he rubs her butt cheeks to make them feel better.
"I know, can you help me get my pajama pants back up please." she requested.
"Of course honey." Shawn says as he pulls her pajamas back up.
Phoenix turned around and laid on her back. At this point her body temperature returned to normal and she no longer felt achy or sick in the stomach. However her butt and her body did feel painfully numb from the shots. At least she didn't feel sick.
"How do you feel now besides from being butt numb?" Shawn asks.
"Nice joke. But it's not just my butt my whole body feels painfully numb. But at least I don't feel achy or sick in the stomach or wheezy." she answered.
"That's good." Shawn smiled.
Nurse Joy finally returns with a wheel chair and a prescription for Phoenix's medicine. "Alright I have the prescription for her medicine right here you can pick it up tomorrow when you bring your daughter for a check up. Since the medicine causes the body to be painfully numb it's advised Phoenix get serious rest for a day or two. So I will be escorting you out by wheelchair." Joy tells them.
"Yes Nurse. We understand." Phoenix answers.
"Alright that's it you two are free to go." she smiled as she helped Phoenix in the wheelchair.
"Ready to go home sweetie?" Shawn asks.
She smiled and gave him a weak thumbs up before she started feeling her eyes grow heavy. Shawn pushes her out of the room to the front door as they leave the Pokemon Center. They leave the wheelchair with Nurse Joy as Shawn carries her bridal style to the truck and puts her in the passenger seat. He jumps in as well buckles her up and himself then starts the truck up and drives off from the Pokemon Center back home.
In the meantime, Glukhov and Nero were standing in the parking lot staring at the destroyed car.
"How the hell did kids do this?" Glukhov asks.
Nero sighs. "I don't know okay. What do you plan on doing?" He asks.
"Oh trust me. You'll like it." Glukhov smirks.
Glukhov walks over to the car, leans into it and reaches for a switch and flicks it on. Glukhov stands back as the car begins to rumble a bit. Then the mechanical arms begin pulling in the damaged wheels and comes back out with new and silver rims with new tires. Then it begins denting out the bumps left by the gang shaping it back to it's normal look then the broken lights popped out and pushed out new lights. Lastly the interior begins reshaping and reforming into brand new leather seats with a new dashboard, new gauges and a new steering wheel. Finally the car was rebuilt into the new Dodge Challenger HellCat. Nero was surprised seeing that it can rebuild itself.
"Wow…" Nero mumbles.
"Like I said, I build them to last." Glukhov answers.
"Alright, well since that's all fixed up I think I'm going to be heading home right now." Nero answered.
"You do that."
"What are you going to do?" Nero asked.
"Going home. Where else." Glukhov answers.
"Your not gonna try and go after those kids are you?" Nero asked.
"Nero, their just punk kids. They don't know better."
"Yeah but you did get pretty pissed when you found out it was punks of all things that ended up tearing up one of your car's." Nero answers with a raised eyebrow.
"I was but I told you that's why I'm prepared."
"And you're telling me that nowhere deep down you want a little payback in revenge?"
"I'll let them go this time but next time I'm gonna personally beat senses into their punk asses." Glukhov answered as he headed back into his truck.
Nero shrugged and started heading back to his car. "Thanks for the help Glukhov."
"Of course." Glukhov jumps in his truck, starts it up and drives off as Nero does the same.
On the highway of Lumiose City, a small group of Cobalions race down the highway lead by their supposed leader who was recognizable by driving a Harley Davis Motorcycle and had a helmet resembling a Cobalion head. Around that time a small group of Tveltals drove up and cornered them. One Tveltal grabbed one Cobalion and bashed his head through the window of a passenger's car. He was unable to get away from a Cobalion who rushed up and smacked him hard with a bat.
One Tveltal with a large steel pipe jumped up towards the Cobalion leader and bashed him on the helmet. Since the leader was wearing a modified helmet it did nothing. So in return he head butts the Tveltal in the head and sends him falling right into the road where he ends up ramming through the windshield of another car.
The Cobalion leader watched this for a moment before he looked forward and saw Fang driving towards him at high speed. Seeing that he wanted to play chicken, the leader charged his bike forward as the two charged at one another at increasing speed up to 100 mph. At the right moment, Fang did a low 180 turn to on his bike to smack the Cobalion leader's bike below and cause it ram off the highway and straight through a truck.
Before the other Cobalions could react, they were soon ambushed by other Tveltals lead by Ash as they rammed into them off the highway or into other driving vehicles. Their victory was only short lived as they saw a group of cop cars driving towards their location.
"Crap it's the cops!" Ash yelled out.
"Let's move out, we're done for the day!" Fang order as he and his gang all raced down the highway to outrun the cops.
Meanwhile, Shawn was finally able to get Phoenix back home safe and sound without running into any more of those gangs. He parked his truck in the garage, stepped out, and gently picked Phoenix up bridal style. Closing the door behind him, he carried her into their home and up into their bedroom where he softly lays her down on the bed.
"There you go, Phoenix." Shawn says softly.
She smiled and kissed him on the cheek a little. "I make out and give you a reward, but I'm still feeling numb and sore from the medicine they gave me." she answered.
"It's alright you don't have to thank me. Wait here I'll be right back." Shawn requested as he left somewhere in the house.
A few short minutes later, Shawn came back with a bowl of hot chicken broth soup for Phoenix.
"Chicken Broth soup?" Phoenix asks.
"Yep, the good old chicken classic soup." Shawn answered as he took a seat next to Phoenix and scooped up a spoonful. He blow on it a little making sure it's not too hot before feeding some to Phoenix.
"It's delicious." Phoenix says with a smile and smacks her lips a bit.
"Only the best for you. So do you want the girls to stay over at Nero's place for the night?" Shawn asked as he feed her another spoonful of Chicken Broth.
"Yeah, let the kids stay over there for the night. At least until I get better you know." Phoenix answers.
"Alright let me make the phone call." Shawn handed her the bowl of chicken broth.
"Sure thing." She answered as she carefully started drinking the soup herself now that she felt some of her energy returned to her.
Shawn dialed on the phone to call Nero's place. "Hello? Hey Tera, how are you? Where's Nero? Huh? Oh still out huh. Had a run in with a gang. Yeah I had a run in myself. Don't worry we're all safe and sound not hurt they're just a bunch of kids who don't know any better. Phoenix had the poke flu but got two shots to help her and she's doing so much very well and better and she's eating now so that's a great plus. Huh? Oh you want to put the kids on the line for her. Alright here she is."
Shawn handed the phone to Phoenix "The girls want to talk to you." Shawn mentions.
Phoenix takes the phone. "Hello?"
"Hi mom how're you feeling?' Zeya asked over the phone.
"Mommy is doing okay. How are my babies doing?" She asks.
"Oh we're doing fine, Tera just finished giving Abby a bath and she looks beautiful and clean right now. Do you want to talk to her real quick?" Zeya asked.
"Yes, I love to." Phoenix answers.
She heard Zeya place the phone over to Abby. Phoenix hears Abby cooing over the phone as Phoenix was awing and adored by her.
"Hi Abby. How is my baby doing?" Phoenix asks.
She heard Abby cooed sweetly on the phone. Phoenix giggled a bit hearing her laugh herself. "Mommy misses you. Mommy will see you again okay. Mommy loves you." Phoenix blows kisses over the phone.
Zeya softly took the phone to continue talking.
"We're going to let you girls stay for the night. Tomorrow your daddy is gonna pick you both up and he needs to have you check by Nurse Joy tomorrow Zeya." Phoenix.
"Okay mommy I'll write that down. Glad your feeling better. Me and Abby love you."
"Mommy loves you both too." Phoenix says as she hangs up and hands the phone back to Shawn.
"Do you need anything else Phoenix, a drink, some more blankets, pillows, the remote to the T.V?" Shawn asked.
"No Shawn. All I want is you is to be by my side. That's all." Phoenix says with a smile as she pats the other side of the bed.
Shawn nods. He quickly went to the bathroom and changed back into his pajamas he wore that morning and sat beside Phoenix on the bed. He gently wrapped an arm around her and let her cuddle close to him and lay her head on his strong chest. The two sat completely still relaxing and enjoying each other's company.
Meanwhile the Tveltal gang drove up at a alley way to meet up.
"Connor, status report?" Fang asked.
"Well the Cobalions got their asses whooped but eight our friends are in the emergency room right now. Gonna have to figure out how to bust them out when they get better." Connor answered.
Fang sighed annoyingly and rubbed his face.
"Hey boss you okay?" Sarek asked.
"Yeah...I guess, I'm turning in for the day guys. Ash you're in charge until tomorrow." Fang said and drove off before anyone could ask or say anything.
Sometime later, Fang drove up to a run down small apartment that didn't look that much to the eyes. Parking his bike and places the security protocols on it, he walked off into his apartment room. After which he enters and locks the door behind him while stripping down to just his boxers. Once done he just plops down on the small bed he had and stared at the ceiling. Watching the ceiling fan turn ever so slowly. In the back of his mind he heard screams of pain and agony that made him cringe and cover his ears. He punched his pillow hard and groaned heavily in irritation. He took some deep breaths to calm himself down and looked over to his nightstand. There a photo of him long with a beautiful Absol girl as toddlers were playing in a flowery field. Fang picked the photo up and looked at it deeply, mainly at the Absol in the picture.
"I'll them pay. I'll make them all pay…" he said sadly as he held the picture close to him and cried silently to himself.
And so here we end another adventure with Shawn, his friends and family as everyone has experienced gang trouble. Quite an interesting day for them. What will be their next adventure? Stay tuned...
