Author's Notes: Notes are at the end of the chapter. I don't want to give to much away.
BFoS: Well, yes this is a fantasy novel. But as I said this story's going for realism, so I'm going to have to tone up the dark parts of the story...
Also, I'm a little down after figuring something out. On I find that PPH has a way less views than my other fanfics. After some thought I remembered how I submitted thirteen chapters all at once, and I find that people seemed to be turned away from long fanfics. It seems that if I had submitted around one chapter a day, I would have a lot more readers and reviewers. If you have any suggestions to get more readers than I'd like to hear it, but I doubt there is, other than re-releasing my fanfic, and I doubt that is smiled upon.
Chapter 28
1 week later
I came home from school after a busy Friday. It was finally the weekend and I could finally relax. As I was going up the organization headquarters, in the elevator, I thought took time to reflect on what happened in my life here.
I've come from the middle of nowhere, and now I was combating pokemon for a living. I've endured countless injuries, but I've made just as many friends in the process. It saddened me slightly that after I left them I would probably never see them again. After a while, I wondered if there was a way for pokemon to join the organization, but I didn't know how to, But I was sure there was a way.
As for my general popularity in the city, I tried to keep myself hidden as long as possible. It was clear that I had made some human friends here, and I've even started to develop a life here too. I started to tour myself around the town and indulge myself on the events. The events that the town had were very similar to the ones I had back on Earth, only subtly different.
As I walked around, it seemed that Terra was becoming more of a celebrity than I was. It wasn't very often that people in this region saw a tame typhlosion. It wasn't long before everyone in the entire city knew her name. The only reason knew my name is because they knew that I was the one that owned Terra. I'd told them that I never owned Terra, I told them that Terra wasn't my pet, she was my friend. Me Dallin found it kinda frustrating that she was the one that was getting all the attention, but I just told Dallin and myself that if I told them my secret, than I'd get a lot more attention than I could handle.
I found they had circus animals or pokemon like you wouldn't believe. I felt a little sorry for them, seeing them either forced perform or caged up. While they were caged up, I decided to have some conversations. They were wildly confused by my ability to talk to them, and so were some of the nearby people. But regardless, many of them had countless stories. I started to think that the pokemon had a lot more to talk about than the actual people who owned them. And that didn't just apply to the circus pokemon but every pokemon in the entire city.
It wasn't long before I discovered an awesome library containing fascinating information on every pokemon that there is. I learned a great deal of information, from weaknesses to strengths of everything I ever needed to know.
I started to think about how lost I would be here without Terra and Dallin. They have been more help than I could ask, and they were the best friends I could have here.
The elevator stopped and opened. I went to the door of my apartment and started to unlock it. I tensed my muscles up, preparing for Terra to tackle to me the second I opened the door. After she started doing it, I got used to it and even enjoyed it a little now.
I swung the door open and flinched back. Nothing.
'Terra?'
'I'm over here.'
'Hi, Nick,' Dallin said. Terra was lying in the corner of the room and Dallin laid down on the bed.
'Oh, so you aren't going to tackle me?'
'No, I'm starting to wonder if you like it or not.'
'Of course I do, you should know that.'
'Well, I did. It's just, I now realize that I'm not in very good condition to be doing that anymore.' She sounded stressed but eager at the same time.
'Not in very good condition? What do you mean?' Terra seemed bothered by something. She stared at the ground and I stared at Dallin.
'Hey, don't look at me. I asked her what was going on but she said that she wanted to tell us at the same time.'
'Oh really? Terra, what's going on?' I realized how worried I sounded.
Terra took a deep sigh and looked me right in the eye. 'Nick... I'm pregnant.'
Author's Notes: I had to put in a lot of filler to make this a decent size and it kinda upsets me. But as I said, this chapter announces one of the big plot twists in the story.
Surprise!
