After the rain had stopped and Lucas had recovered we sent out again, but after another hour the rain started again but by then we had reached a town. "Come on, Beth!" Lucas held the door open for me as we ran into a diner.
As Lucas shook his hair dry I looked around. The place was quiet I walked up to the counter and lean over and looked left and right, just a few people were here. Suddenly a long pink tongue appeared out of nowhere and licked the side of my cheek. The force of the tongue sent me flying and I landed on the floor on my butt.
Lucas was laughing hysterically at this as I wiped my cheek. Suddenly a round woman with an apron appeared in the door way of the kitchen, looking frantic. "Oh, Lickitung!" She said pulling the pink Pokémon out by the scruff of its neck. She looked at me apologetically. "I'm sorry he doesn't usually do that to the new comers." The woman sighed. "Oh I'm sorry let me introduce myself, I'm Sally I'm the owner of this diner," but then she mumbled "but not for long if lunch rush doesn't hurry up."
"What do you mean?" Lucas asked twisting his rain soaked jacket over a plant.
"There haven't been any new people here since those people came" said a voice behind us. A tall dark girl stood in the door way. She looked a lot like Lotus expect in the same way she looked so different. Her black cloak twisted out behind her as the door closed behind her. Behind her appeared two Haunters that immediately flew to Lucas and began circling him laughing gleefully, freaking him out.
Misdreavus popped out o f her pokeball and glared at the two defiantly. "Meanies!" she said in a childlike voice. Her little gem glowed and the two Pokémon flew back to their master, using her as a shield.
The girl looked between Lucas and me as if checking our positions for something that was off. Then she continued as she took off what looked like a witch's hat off her head. "About four months ago some archeologist came claiming they were looking of ruins to a loss temple, and then the rain came." Her voice was dark and mysterious.
"Oh Luna, that's not true!" Said Sally, "It was about a month before it started to rain like this."
"Pip it Sally, you know it's true," Said an old man in the corner as he shook the creases out of his newspaper. "You never could lie."
"Well at least the princess is here now. "Luna said in a dead voice. She extended her pale arm and pointed a finger to my necklace. "The Necklace of Legends has only been worn by those who deserver the power, you are the princess." I froze in place; the girl smirked and walked over to Lucas. Lucas looked at her a little scared, which normally would have been hysterical but now….
The girl stroked Lucas with her hand and if it's possibly I froze again. I felt an urge to scare the girl off but I couldn't act on it, it didn't make sense to me. I heard Umbreon chuckle next to me, but she stopped abruptly when I glared down at her.
"So that makes you?" Luna asked when her hand left his face. She voice was still dead but held a large amount of silkiness. I seriously have no idea what made him do this but his eyes shift from her to me. It only lasted a second but I saw something in his eyes I couldn't explain.
"Lucas Thien" He said in a sort of scared way. Luna leaned closer and randomly Misdreavus flew between them shrieking and moved Luna away.
Luna got over it quickly and looked back to me, "Can you help us? "She asked coolly as if she nothing had happened. I looked at Umbreon and at the people in the room who were all starring at me.
I nodded, and the room roared with cheers.
