Author's Note: 06.01.09
HAPPY NEW YEAR!!
First update of the year, and I'd like to say sorry for the slow update. This chappy is pretty long, so I hope the wait was worth while.
While this chapter is long, beware that there are a lot of things it covers, so you might forget what was in the beginning when you finish at the end. :(
While I hope you had a good 2009, let's welcome 2010 with open arms!! In less than 20 days, Belief at Dawn will be having it's one year anniversary, and I'm hoping to PARTAY!! Although this story was published on the 25th of January, 2009 technically, I really think the real birth of it was mid-September, where the "September Boom" occurred and I received 0 to 1500k+ hits in a week of constant updating. It was all in the effort to do better.
I hope you can come PARTAY with us as my forum!!! It's named Grey Hat, Purple Scarf and you can find the link in Silver Leafx's profile, since its her forum and I'm just a mod ;)
There we have help for other authors, a chat room, a FAQ thread, a thread for flaming us (if you wanted to flame us in anyway), a Role Play, and many other things.
Also, many things in this chappy are linked to Silver Leaf'x "Unseen, Unhead, Unfelt" which I am collaborating with. Not only that, but it's a great fic. Check it out if you love B.A.D. because soon our fics will overlap and you will need to read both fics to get a full possible experience of them.
So, I'll update "Chronicles of Fate: The 17 Knights" soon, and I'd like to announce that because of the holidays, an update of the "Synergetic Sins" series will be delayed by a lot. Sorry.
Now that all has been said and done, read, review, and have a Happy 2010.
Enjoy!!
Chapter 36: Pinkie Pies on the Beach
I woke up the next morning in bed, slightly tired and especially stiff. My bag was placed on the nightstand beside me, an unfamiliar Pokeball beside it. I looked around me. I was in the hotel room of Cinnabar Hotel.
I sighed, getting up to see myself fully dressed in pajamas. I raised an eyebrow at the fact, and shrugged, yawning and walking over to the hotel room mini kitchen where sounds of sizzling and boiling could be heard.
"Morning…." I yawned, and saw Riri preparing a meal. Our eyes met, and I immediately turned mine into a glare.
"What was all that about last night!!" I screamed. She growled, violently putting down her knife and placing her hands on her apron covered hips.
"I WAS going to say sorry with a meal, but it seems like I'm not getting the chance!!" she roared. I took a step forward.
"You nearly got me killed!!"
"You nearly got me killed also!!" she pulled off her apron and took off her shirt. On her chest was a red, three inch scar, the end being covered by her black bra, "That's what you did to me!"
"Well, that wouldn't have happened if you didn't turn my hand into ICE!!" I threw my hand in the air, the one she froze and turned it into a chilly fist.
"That's it!! Make your own food!!" She stomped her foot and threw her shirt over her shoulder, trudging past me and heading for the door. She opened it, and Yoshi and Broly walked in, raising an eyebrow at her and staring in shock as they saw she was shirtless.
"Breakfast ready?" Broly blinked, and Riri roared past him, shutting the door violently. The boys turned to me, both a little red.
"What's wit-"
"ARRRRRRRGGGG!!!" I screamed, and stomped past them, opening the door. Closing it, I could already picture their faces as Broly's voice muttered behind me,
"You SURE they don't need anger management?"
*************
I was in my pajamas, down at the coffee shop across the street from my hotel. I sighed, and the owner was washing tables and welcoming customers. The shop was small, with a long counter lined with stools and many round two man tables. I sat at the counter, sipping my latte to calm myself down.
The news flashed on.
"Cinnabar Island's annual Cinni Fest held it's infamous Bottom Reef Competition last night," the reporter spoke in a bored, monotone voice. She shifted the papers in her hands, "During the last few minutes of the Competition, the winner of the competition, Ririkuu Honozo, emerged with the Heaven's Rod, and some distracting news."
The screen changed to a shaking video of Riri being pulled onto the boat. She took off her mask, her wet, purple hair lashing around, and threw the staff away before shouting, "Someone get my friend!! I went down to look for her after emerging, but I don't have anymore oxygen!"
I tilted my head in confusion. The boat shored, and I saw Yoshi running up to her, Broly in tow. Many people and Pokemon were in the background.
"Riri! Where's the kid!" he shouted. The reporter's babble about something interrupted what Broly had said. I didn't care to figure what the reporter was saying. I just stared at the silent picture of Yoshi and Broly running into the water, pulling their mouth pieces on and goggles over their eyes.
"Kira!" a familiar voice interrupted me and I turned to see Riri entering the coffee shop. She sighed, and I jumped from the stool and ran to her, giving her a hug.
"I'm sorry!!" I frowned, and Riri laughed.
"I'm sorry more!!" she let go, and I was practically confused on how fast we got over this, "Look, I should've kicked you and all that. I was thinking so much about winning that I forgot about the well-being of my own friend…"
"I shouldn't have yelled at you!!" I frowned at her, "And I'm sorry about the scar I gave you!! I didn't mean to do it!!"
"It's fine!" she waved her hands lightly, "Really!"
I sighed, and we laughed. It was freaky, but in any case I was glad we were over this, "So? Did you get the Dratini!?"
"Yup!" Riri replied, "You know what? I was thinking about letting my team meet her, so wanna head to the beach?"
"HELL yeah!!" I cried, "But first, you what this calls for?"
We grinned widely at each other, knowing what we were thinking.
"BIKINI SHOPPING!!" We cried in unison, and headed for the hotel.
*************
"Because of this illegal win," the reporter's voice rang through the cafe, "Ririkuu is going to be fined, and the prize will not be given to her-"
Someone had interupted her, handing her a paper.
"Oh, it seems like we have some distracting news," the woman sighed, "The Dratini award has been stolen."
*************
"Come on, Yoshi!!" Riri laughed as we dragged Yoshi through the mall. He growled and gave a glare at the smirking Broly in tow, and rolled his eyes as we dragged him into the men's section.
"You need a makeover!" I giggled with Riri, and he sighed with grief.
"Just leave me alone!!" he muttered.
"Tsk tsk. Look at you!! How can you get a girl looking like this!" Riri rushed over to a nearby rack, pulling up some t-shirts, "Here, try this!!"
"Never!!" he struggled to break free from my grasp.
"But, that green army shirt will SO make your eyes pop!" I smiled, and he looked at me as if I was crazy.
"Dammit, NO! I don't want popping eyes, so go play dress-up with Crack-cakes over there!" he looked over to where Broly used to be, just to see he was gone, "Ugh…dammit…"
"Oh!! Here look at this!" Riri held up a pair of pale skinny jeans, "How's this?"
"Hmm… I like it!" I smiled and pulled Yoshi over, "It would be best if he wore converse with that…"
"True…true…" Riri nodded and turned to Yoshi, throwing the khaki, army design shirt to him along with the pale jeans, "Try this on."
"No."
"Please?" Riri put on pleading eyes, and Yoshi looked away.
"No."
"Pretty, PRETTY PLEASE with a Cherri Berry on top?" I joined Riri with my Pikachu eyes and a small frown. Yoshi stumbled a bit and pulled himself back, twisting his lips.
"I already told you I don't like Cherri Berries!" He muttered and looked away. Riri growled under her breath.
"Then how 'bout a….Pretty Pretty Please with a Kira-in-a-bikini on top?" she muttered, and Yoshi and I turned to her, both red and in shock.
"WHAT!?!?"
************
The weather was nice for a day in autumn. The sun made the beach of Cinnibar Island nice and hot, and the clear waters that crashed to the shore were very refreshing. All of us seemed to have the beach to ourselves, since most people were enjoying the amusement parks of Cinni Fest.
Riri and I rushed out of the small shack that was the women's restrooms, dressed in our two piece bikinis with sunscreen ready on our skin. Riri wore a purple top with pink shell designs that was a single thick strip going around, the straps hooking around her neck, and a matching bottom that was tied with a large bow. I, in contrast, wore a light blue bikini top with light yellow clouds around it, with the regular straps, and a dark blue bottom that was a short floppy skirt, light blue with yellow clouds and black stripes. It was the "Mareep" design.
We rushed over to the small part of the beach where an umbrella was stabbed in the sand and four towels were laid underneath. Yoshi was laying there in his dark green swim trunks, legs crossed and his arms behind his head. He wore dark sunglasses over his eyes, and next to him was Riolu, doing the same thing, using his ears in place of shades.
Broly was sitting near the water, tending to his large Ivysaur and Manetric. His other Pokemon were roaming in the distance, and the thought gave me a great idea.
"Hey Yoshi, you seen my bag?" I called out to Yoshi, putting my hands on my knees as I leaned in to look at him. He slowly stirred and took his sunglasses off, staring at me wide-eyed. I tilted my head in confusion, and he shook his head and got up, muttering a quick, "No…"
"It's right here, Kira," Riri giggled and crawled over Yoshi's lap to grab my brown bag, "Here!"
"Will you just get away from me, Slinky?" Yoshi pulled his legs from under Riri's body, "My Arceus…"
"Pff. Shut up Yoshi. I know you enjoy hot girls in bikinis all over you," Riri snorted her reply with a taunting smile, handing me my bag. I laughed and pulled out my Pokeballs, sending out my team. Yoshi did the same.
"Sure, I do," Yoshi yawned, putting on his sunglasses again as he slept against Quilava like a pillow, Sentret flopping across his stomach and Murkrow flying away to peck at Broly, "Too bad you aren't a hot girl in a bikini."
"But…" Riri gave a snort and stood up, kicking Yoshi's knee in the process, "Screw you."
"Will you stop hurting me?!" Yoshi rubbed his knee with his foot in annoyance. Riri gave a smirk.
"Boo hoo! Go run to yo mama then," she growled and walked away, grabbing a Pokeball from her bag and throwing it out. A long, snake like body formed from the red mist-like flames, and I gasped at the Pokemon.
"A…Dratini!" I smiled at it. It looked just as I imagined, just like the blue doll Sano gave me, just like the picture I drew when I was young…
"Hey little fella!" Riri giggled and patted the Pokemon's head. I joined her. It was smooth, and surprisingly soft, like the fuzz of a Peacha Berry.
"Pix?" I heard a small voice, and looked down to see Pix at my feet, standing in curiosity beside Ari.
"Oh, hey Pix!" I bent down to pick her up, her soft gold fur sparkling in the bright sunlight. She gestured her head to what seemed to be the water side, and I looked over in wonder to see Yoshi knelt down, staring at a pink Pokemon. Bomber was wildly barking at it, while Yuonal flew in circles around Broly along with Murkrow. Broly was running away like someone insane, screaming, "No!! Not the hair!!"
"Alrighty then…" I sighed and made my way over to Yoshi and the pink Pokemon. It was flopped on it's belly, seeming to be snoring while having it's eyes wide awake. I wasn't mistaken.
"…A Slowpoke?" I muttered, and Yoshi looked up at me. The creepiest thing was the fact his smile was wide, stretching ear to ear, with teeth and everything as he nodded energetically.
"Pix?" (Squishy?) I laughed at Pix's comment, but it suddenly it hit me. I understood what she said.
"Hey, can you lend me a Pokeball?" Yoshi jumped up and grabbed my shoulders, shaking me. Pix giggled, leaning back and forth in my arms as if she was riding a Ponyta.
"N…n…no!!" I struggled to speak as Yoshi continued shaking me.
"Why!! Not!!" He spoke with each strong shake.
"Be!! Cause!! If!! You!! Do!! It!! Will!! Regi!! Ster!! Slow!! Poke!! To!! ME!!"
"Then!! I'll!! Just!! Trade!! Growlithe!! With!! You!!"
"Good!! I!! Dea!! Now!! Let!! GO!!!"
Yoshi finally jumped away from me, rushing over to the towels under the umbrella where my bag was. He rampaged through the contents and pulled out a brand new Pokeball, running back over to the Slowpoke as if he was afraid it would run away.
"Murkrow!!" Yoshi gave a loud whistle and the night bird growled, flying away from it's chasing of Broly to perch on it's master's head, "Drill Peck!!"
Murkrow gave a loud caw, headed off of Yoshi's head, and flew over to the Slowpoke, rapidly twisting itself as if it was a drill. It hit the Slowpoke and it bounced off, as if it hit raw rubber. Yoshi twisted his lips and looked at me.
"What?" I muttered, feeling Pix squirming in my arms.
"Um…GO!!" he threw the Pokeball at the Slowpoke, sucking the Pokemon in. The Pokeball didn't shake. Just went bleep indicating the Pokemon was caught.
"Wow, that was easy…" Yoshi muttered, picking up the Pokeball. He shook with excitement as he threw the ball in the airm sending out the pokemon.
"…poke," The Slowpoke muttered, in its same position, using its paw to rub the spot where Murkrow attacked.
"Hey there little buddy!!" Yoshi knelt down in front of his new Pokemon, a wide smile on. I rolled my eyes and looked around. Yuonal and Murkrow were back to chasing Broly (now upgraded from running on foot to riding on a Rhyhorn). Riri was playing in the water with her new Dratini, joined by Bomber, Sprite, and Ari. Pix squirmed in my arms, wanting to break fee. I set her down as she ran off to join Riri and the others.
"Hey, miss!" I turned around to find a small boy running up to me, his mother chasing him in worry. I knelt down to meet the little's boy's eyes, and he gave a big smile before saying, "You were that miss with the TOTWALLAY awesome fishy, right?"
"The…Qwilfish?" I muttered. He nodded with excitement, his mother hurrying to pick him up.
"I'm very sorry dear, my son just has no manners!!" She gave a glare to the boy as I stood up.
"It's nothing…" I cocked my head to the side. I do remember seeing an extra Pokeball in my bag…
"Miss!! Can I have your TOTWALLAY awesome fishy?" he remarked, and his mother gave a dark scowl.
"Don't ask people for their Pokemon, Charlie-"
"No, it's alright!" I walked over to my bag, pulled out an older Pokeball, and headed to the water, throwing the ball in the air to release the puffer fish into the sea.
"Hey, Qwilly!" I smiled, and Qwilly happily bloated himself up with joy. I frowned.
"You don't deserve to be a rental Pokemon," I sighed, and Qwilly was still as he listened, "Rental Pokemon are never treated nicely, don't you think?"
"Qwil? Qwillah FISH FISH!!" (Does this mean I'll be staying with you? Oh Joy!! Joy!!) Qwilly replied happily, and I frowned.
"No, but I know someone who will take care of you," I replied. I turned to gesture to the mother and boy, and they joined me by the water side, "Can you take care of my Qwilfish for me?"
The boy stared in awe at the Pokemon, leaning in with curiosity.
"I've always heard that Qwilfish suck, but after seeing this one I think they're awesome~" he giggled, wanting to touch it. I laughed and glanced at Qwilly.
"His name's Qwilly," I muttered, "If you promise to take real good care of him, I'll let you keep him."
"Really?" the boy's eyes lighted up, "Mommy!! Look I'm getting my first Pokemon!! Now I can prove to Daddy I can be the Pokemon Master!!"
"Charlie, let's go home," his mother sighed, and looked at me, "Sorry for all the trouble, dear, but we'll be going now."
"Wait!" I returned Qwilly and handed the Pokeball over to the woman, "Please, give it to your son."
The woman looked down at Charlie's depressed face and sighed, "Oh…alright…"
"Take good care of him!!" I waved a goodbye at Charlie and his mother. The two walked over to the street and disappeared in the crowds of Cinni Fest. I sighed, and looked over to Yoshi, who was poking his Slowpoke as the Slowpoke was poking him with it's tail.
"Poke," Yoshi laughed and poked it.
"…Poke," the Slowpoke touched Yoshi with it's tail in return.
"Poke."
"Poke."
"Poke!"
"POKE!!" the Slowpoke took it's tail and angrily slapped Yoshi across the face. Yoshi tumbled to the sand, rubbing his cheek.
"Ow…" he muttered, and I rolled my eyes at him.
"…me…no like…POKE!!" the Slowpoke growled slowly in it's dumb voice. My jaw dropped in unison with Yoshi's. Before either of us could say a word about a talking Slowpoke, there was a loud cry, and we turned to see Broly headed for us, running not from a Pokemon, but a girl in a very, should I say…revealing…bikini.
"Well well well, look at what Crack-cakes fished up," Yoshi observed the girl with the edges of his lips slightly curling, pulling a towel around his neck and latching onto it tightly with both hands. She had short, bleach blond hair in a fine pixie cut, with parts of her hair dyed red and hot pink. Her body was supermodel slim, fine tan skin, very tall, and yes, you guessed, big breasts that seemed to guide her as she ran.
"H…help!" Broly was scurrying away from the girl, panting, "Help meh!"
"What's up?" I muttered in curiosity. Broly ran to the umbrella, attempting to hide behind it.
"The sky," Yoshi gave a smart alec reply, and I turned a glare to him. He merely laughed and turned his head to observe the girl again, running is eyes up her slowly.
"I…I don't know!" Broly was freaking out, very out of his cold, emotionless self, "She gave me a kiss, and so to be polite I kissed her back, and now she won't stop talking about a hotel, and how she has 'the pills'!"
My jaw dropped at that statement, and only half a laugh escaped my lips. Riri walked up to me, and raised an eyebrow in a look of "What-the-Fearow". Dratini was nowhere in sight, probally in it's Pokeball, and my team was following her.
"…the 'pill'?" Riri put her fingers up to make hand quotes.
"Yeah…what ever that is…" Broly turned to see the girl coming, "HIDE ME!!"
As Broly took a brave tuck-and-roll dive behind his roaming Ivysaur, the girl came giggling along, stopping in front of Yoshi and, apparently, checking him out.
"Hey, like, have ya, like, seen this blondie that is like…" she took a flat hand and raised it above her head, "…this high-ya? And like, he has, like, these rally, rally, RALLY, gorgeous turquoise eyes-za…"
"Ah…no, not at all," Yoshi dragged on. He was staring wide eyed at her, adjusting his grip on the towel around his neck. She bit her bottom lip and giggled, flashing her eyelids at him.
"Well, to bad-da…" she put on an obviously fake smile, "Would you, like, wanna go out for a drink, or somethang? I'm rather…like…lone-lay…"
"Sh…sure," Yoshi's lips curled and he was ready to take a step forward when a loud throat clear was heard. It was Riri, her arms crossed as she impatiently tapped her finger on her elbow.
"You. Big. Slut," was her three words that made up her ten second sentence. Riri took a large step between Yoshi and the girl, and gave a small snort, in unison with her.
"I am, like, NOT a slut!!" the girl growled, her dark eyes forming a glare, "I just…know what I like."
"And guess what SLUTS like?" Riri gave a fast reply.
"I wouldn't know, seeing as I'm like, NOT one…"
"You sure?" Riri gave a small smirk, "I thought that the 'pill' was strictly for them."
"The pill?" the girl made a small confused look of disgust, "Where would I, like, get something like that? They're like, SO expensive-vah…."
"AHA!!" Riri's finger was suddenly pointing at the girl's face in a split second, "How would you know if you haven't bought them before!?!?"
"I, like, bought them for my, like, sister, m'kay, batch?" the girl snorted, rather pissed, "She's, like, a REAL slut, if you even care-rah…"
Riri gave a small chuckle, not even flinching, and pulled up her hand quotes, "Versus a, what should I say, 'fake slut'?"
"Well, yeah, like…" the girl was looking around her for answers, "There's, like, those that just wear too little, and like, those that take it the whole othah level-lah…"
"Again…how would you know this?"
"My sis and I are…like…" she looked around her again, scratching the back of her ear, "Just rally close…."
"So that you can share your oh-so-mighty secrets of SLUTINESS?"
"I would NEVAH share, like, my-" she stumbled, "I mean-"
"I think I just won that round," Riri merely gave a small laugh, and imitated the girl's nasally voice, "..batch."
The girl clenched her teeth and looked Riri over with disgust, before throwing her nose in the air with a snort.
"At least you'll, like, nevah win a boy," she formed a glare. This really must've thrown Riri in the ditch, because her calm, taunting eyes were now flaring up, glaring back.
"Pff. AS. IF!" Riri grunted, and the girl wore a winning expression.
"Then, like, prove it."
"I certainly will!!" Riri looked around her, and as her eyes came upon a confused Yoshi, she glanced back to the girl and gave a taunting smile. With two strong hands she grabbed onto Yoshi's towel around his neck and pulled him forward, his lips quickly locking with hers as he was forced to bend down. The kiss was at least five seconds long, or maybe longer, since that was the craziest five seconds of my life.
As Riri let go and pushed Yoshi away, she put on a small victory smile to taunt the girl, licking her lips as she walked over to the umbrella to grab her purse and walk away, waving a goodbye without turning around. Yoshi was in a state of shock, his face partially red and his eyes wide with confusion.
"Ugh, that batch…" the girl grumbled, and pulled her arm around Yoshi's, "Let's just, like, go…"
As she attempted and failed to get a stunned Yoshi to walk, she grew impatient, and stomped her foot. I was breathless, a bit stunned myself and in confusion. Although I knew it wasn't technically meant…there was just something wrong about it that made me feel…misplaced.
"Kid…?" Yoshi turned to me in confusion, and I shook the thoughts out of my mind.
"Y…yeah?" I turned to look at him, and he pulled his arm away from the girl slowly. He took a light hand and rested it on the top of my head.
"You a'right?" he muttered. Out of the corner of my eye I saw the girl stomp away, cursing under her breath. I gave a nod and a small smile without looking at him, only the towel around his neck.
"Let's…" I shook his hand off my head, "Let's just go find Riri."
"M'kay," he muttered, looking over to Broly, "And I think I need to get Crack-cakes some lessons on socializing…"
"Yeah, you do that," I laughed, looking over at Broly crouching behind his Ivysaur.
*************
Riri didn't seem to be anywhere in Cinni Fest. She must've gone back to the hotel or something. It was kind of a shame, since there were so many things I wanted to do with her, like the three-legged race, or throwing baseballs at milk bottles for prizes. I had to return all my Pokemon, but I decided to let Ari and Pix out for some air. Bomber didn't seem to like the loud noises, there was too much soda around for Sprite to be roaming about, and I was too scared Yuonal would go after Broly again.
"So, you two, want something to eat?" I looked down at the two as I passed a Pokeblock shop. They cheered happily, and I laughed before buying two red Pokeblock slushies.
"Here ya go!" I muttered, setting the slushies on the ground for them. Pix quickly munched down the stuff, while Ari looked uneased, and stared at Pix before giving a small lick.
"Pix!!" (Yummy!) Pix cried, and I laughed as she swayed her golden tails back and forth. I was surprised to see she had five tails now. Arceus, I needed to pay more attention to my Pokemon…
"Reep…" (It's ok…) Ari put a look of concern on, and I frowned.
"What…you don't like red Pokeblocks?" I muttered, but Ari shook her head.
"Ma ma…" (I don't like slushies in particular…)
"Oh…" I twisted my lips and rubbed her soft wool, "That's ok, Pix-"
"Vul PIX!!" (Pix can have it!!) Pix cried and butted Ari over to hog her slushie, scarfing it down. I sighed and laughed, and so did Ari. But something suddenly happened, and Ari shocked Pix really hard.
"Pixxx!!" (what was that for!!) Pix turned to glare at Ari.
"Ma! Reep Reep!!" (I changed my mind, I want my slushie!)
"Oh, no no NO you don't!!" the owner of the shop hurried and waved his hands at us, as if to go "shoo shoo!!"
"What?" I looked up at him in wonder, and he gave a glare.
"I don't want a repeating incident!" he roared, and I let out a breath of air through my nose, picking up both Pix and Ari as I walked away.
"Pff…what repeating incident..?"
I returned to the hotel when nothing of Riri came up. I kinda missed her and her nosey self. She wasn't at the Farris Wheel, the beach, or even at the clown house (well, now that I think about it, I know why). Cinnibar was a lot bigger than I thought it was, being an island. Sighing, I pushed the button and waited for the elevator to descend to my level.
Entering the hotel room, the scene before me wasn't as pleasant.
Both boys were laying on the bed, staring at me, Broly shirtless, while Yoshi was on top of him, using his knees to pin down Broly's legs and his hands to pin down Brloy's arms. I stumbled for the moment, and raised my finger up along with opening my mouth to say something, then returned to normal.
"Sorry," I muttered, my face growing red, "I'll just…go."
I turned to head to the door when a few grunts came and Yoshi was up to his feet, grabbing my shoulders.
"IT'S NOT WHAT YOU THINK!!!" he cried, shaking me, "NEVAH!!"
"A-Alright!!" I pushed him off, "It's okay to be gay. I'll always support cha. Thank and same sex marrige."
"NO!!!!!"
"….pie."
Yoshi and I turned to see a Slowpoke grumbling as he watched rainbow Ponytas prance on the T.V. screen.
"….pie…" it muttered again as the high pitched voices of the talking Ponytas rang through the speakers. We all raised an eyebrow, Broly getting up (UGH!! ABS!!) and pulling some book out to read. If I wasn't mistaken, there was a picture of a half naked girl on the cover, the title "How to socialize in your Love Life" running across her face.
"Your…ah…Slowpoke still talks?" I muttered through the awkward silence. Yoshi rolled his eyes.
"Oh, no kid, that Slowpoke doesn't TALK at ALL," He muttered with a tone of sarcasm, sighing and scratching his head in the process. I noticed he was in his new clothes, the dark green army shirt under his black jacket, and pale skinny jeans with black converse. I looked over him and nodded with satisfaction.
"You look nice," I giggled, practically praising myself. Yoshi gave a small smile.
"Apparently me looking nice is more important than a talking Slowpoke."
"Naturally." Sighing, I walked over to sit in front of the T.V, grabbing the remote off the top along my way. As I pointed the remote to the screen, the Slowpoke turned to glare at me. Was that even possible, for Slowpokes to glare?
"….no…change T.V.!!!" he muttered in his slow and deep voice. I gulped.
"Pinkie Pie!! Did you steal my map to my secrest stash of Cocoa?" A yellow Ponyta on the screen questioned the pink one in an obvious tone. Gah. Worse than Dora the Explorer.
"Of course not, Sugar Puff!" the pink Ponyta muttered in it's high voice, hiding something behind it's back (which is not physically possible, since I never thought a Ponyta could put a hoof all the way behind its back while still managing to stand on three feet.). Yoshi took a seat next to me, Indian style, and raised an eyebrow.
"Creepy," he muttered. I nodded a reply.
"Are you hiding something?" Sugar Puff raised an eyebrow, and Pinkie Pie shook it's head in denial. Sugar Puff then turned to the "camera", "Kids, is Pinkie Pie hiding something?"
There was the longest silence in the world. Slowpoke slowly nodded his head up and down, sophisticated on the screen. I groaned as Yoshi took the remote from me and changed the channel to Local News. For that, Slowpoke whacked him across the face with his tail.
"Dammit…" Yoshi groaned. I laughed and watched the reporter place his papers on the desk, curling his fingers together and setting his hands on top of them.
"In Other News, a slushie bar in Cerulean City was torn down my what seemed to be a Magikarp!" he gave a small laugh, "Here is a video retrieved from the owner."
"Oh, THAT incident..." i muttered, thinking of the slushie bar owner shooing me away. The screen changed to a poor quality, black and white video of a normal slushie bar, except being torn down by a rampaging Magikarp. People were running out to the exit at high speed, and one girl was waving a goodbye as another girl dragged her out.
"Wow… that's messed up," Yoshi muttered. The screen changed back to the laughing reporter. A small "psssstt!! You're on!!" came from the background.
"Oh…haha…" he got back in place, "Today is September twenty-seventh, and Kanto seems to be hosting it's annual Seizonsha Trials, at the Poké Tech Academy. Here in Kanto, we will be hosting Trial Virtual, where trainers will be battling with the all new Battle Sims-"
The T.V. shut off. I looked over to see Yoshi yawning, throwing the remote away.
"Hey!! I was watching that!!" I grumbled. He raised an eyebrow.
"BOOOOOOring."
"I wanted to see what that Trial thingy was!!" I frowned. Yoshi sighed.
"Just look it up on the internet…."
"I don't have money to go to the internet café."
"Take my-" he paused, "Nevermind. I don't want you using my Debit Card."
"You have a Debit Card?"
"Those who can't afford Credit go with Debit," he stood up. Pulling out a Pokéball, he pointed it at Slowpoke, "Come on, let's go Slowpoke."
"Pinkie Pie."
"Huh?" Yoshi thinned his eyes at the Pokémon's statement.
"Me… Pinkie Pie…." Slowpoke muttered.
"What ever Slowpoke," Yoshi sighed. Slowpoke whacked him with his tail across the leg, "OW!! What the-"
"ME!! NAME!!! PINKIE PIE!!"
"He's trying to say his name is Pinkie Pie," I muttered.
"I know he's trying to say his name is Pinkie Pie!!" Yoshi growled back, rubbing his leg.
"Well why didn't you call him Pinkie Pie!!"
"I didn't know his name was Pinkie Pie!"
"I thought you just said you knew his name was Pinkie Pie!!"
"No I didn't say I knew his name was Pinkie Pie I said I knew he was trying to say his name was Pinkie Pie!!"
"That means you knew his name was Pinkie Pie!"
"No it doesn't mean his name was Pinke Pie!"
"….pie…."
"What do you mean 'it doesn't mean his name was Pinkie Pie'?"
"I'm not going to name my Slowpoke a stupid name like Pinkie Pie!!"
"Well your Slowpoke wants to be named 'Pinkie Pie'!"
"Well he's not getting a stupid name like 'Pinkie Pie'!!"
"But he wants to be named Pinkie Pie!"
"….pie…."
"He's not getting a stupid name like Pinkie Pie!!"
"What is the problem with naming your Pokemon Pinkie Pie!!"
"Its stupid to name a Pokemon 'Pinkie Pie'!"
"But he wants to be named Pinkie Pie!!"
"I'm not naming him Pinkie Pie!!"
"Fine then don't name him Pinkie Pie!"
"I certainly will not name him Pinkie Pie!
"Fine!"
"Fine!!"
"……………pie?"
*Haha. Sorry, I just had to add in a pointless argument that consisted of many "Pinkie Pies".
For a review, this is what pretty much happened.
-Kira made up with Riri.
- News say the Dratini prize was stolen (Kira and Riri did not hear this, btw.)
-Beach!!
-Kira gives Qwilly to a Pokemon Master Wanna-be boy.
-Broly needs more socializing skills.
-Riri kissed Yoshi.
-Slushie bar incident of Cerulean on the news was the same one as Sophie Ng's and Candi's. Magikarp, named Cupcake, belongs to Sophie.
-Slowpoke wants to be named Pinkie Pie.
- Kira hears about the Seizonsha Trials and Kanto's Trial Virtual. (Read "Unseen, Unheard, Unfelt" for more info).
:) so the drama of B.A.D. builds. Where is Riri? Is that kiss going to have meaning later on ?(Ki-nee-chan)? Or, is Slowpoke never going to be named Pinkie Pie?
Haha. What a filler. See ya next chappie!!
