Chapter 54: Welcome to Sevii Islands!

Day 38: 9:01 A.M. Red's View
Location: Somewhere in the Middle of Ocean
"This thing is weird," I said to Green holding my new Pokémon, "It's very weird." Last night, after the restaurant incident, we ran Patrick the scientist. He took us over to the lab again and presented us with two extinct Pokémon that they brought back to life with the fossils we gave them.
"Well Omastar aren't exactly know in the history books for their good looks," Green sighed, "But at least you Pokémon is kind of cute with the tentacles and all of that, but my Aerodactyl I got scares me."
"Well whatever," I said returning my Omastar, "We should be happy with the Pokémon we just got. I mean, how many people in the world own an extinct Pokémon?"
"Not many I suppose," she said, "But why does mine have to be so scary?!" I rolled my eyes; she was just being a big baby. I saw her Pokémon, it looks so awesome and cool. I'm kind of jealous, but I don't want her to know. She'll never let me live it down."
"Hey guys!" Bill called from the ship's deck, "We'll be arriving in a few more minutes! Get ready to depart soon!"
"This is so cool!" Green said to me, "We are actually on heading to the Sevii Islands! They say these islands hold many legends and secrets!"
"Too bad Lilyana didn't want come with us," I sighed sadly, "It was nice having to travel with a group for a while. I guess she just wanted to get to that gym badge as soon as possible I suppose."
"Well I couldn't be happier!" Green said with a smile, "I can now finally punch or insult you and she won't be around to yell at me! Isn't that great stupid-head?"
Suddenly, a cell phone next to us rang all of a sudden. We glanced at each other and wondered who was calling us in the middle of nowhere. "I answer that," Green said picking it up and speaking into it, "Hello?"
"DON'T YOU DARE INSULT MY RED!" Lilyana's voice screamed through the phone so loud that I could hear her, "YOU GOT THAT YOU LITTLE MANAIC?!"
The phone went dead and Green looked at it confused. "How did she do that?!" she asked horrified, "Is she watching me right now!? Is she an alien!?"
"Enough with all of that alien garbage!" I said to her, "I don't need to hear about it anymore! I'm just glad you got over Bill being an alien!"
"Who said I got over it?" she said surprised, "When you took his offer to come with him to the Sevii Islands, I knew he used his alien powers to confuse and capture you! I had to come to save you using my wit and intelligence to… why are you looking at me like that?"
"Have you ever heard yourself talk before in your life?" I asked shaking my head, "You sound like a lunatic!"
"We have arrived!" Bill shouted, "We have arrived at the Sevii Islands!" We ran to the side of the boat and looked over the side of it. A large island began to slowly grow larger as we approached it. When we got a better look at it, it was one small island with two smaller islands and a tall, large volcano close together to it.
"Wow," Green said, "It's amazing!"
Bill's boat parked on a dock and we all disembarked it. "This is my friends," he said excitedly, "One Island! It features the largest Pokémon Center of all the islands where my friend works. This island also include Treasure Beach where many things wash up everyday, Kindle Path where many martial artists and trainers come to practice, Ember Spa the only place around that features hot springs that are inside of a cave, and Mt. Ember, a dormant volcano that hasn't exploded in over 200 years."
"This is such a cool place!" Green said, "I got to see everything here!"
"And just think," I said to her, "There are 6 more islands left to check out after this. We can however only stay for a few nights since the Indigo League starts near the end of the month and we still have to get one more badge to be able to enter it."
"Fine," she said annoyed, "But you have to promise to me that we'll come back here right after the Pokémon League ends! No exceptions!"
"That's fine by me," I said to her, "I also want to see all of these islands for myself as well."
"Anyways," Bill said to us, "I'm going to go meet my friend. Are you two interested in meeting him or will you two just do some exploring?"
"We'll meet your friend!" I said to him.
"Are you sure about that?" Green whispered to him, "I don't want to meet this alien's friend!"
"For the last time," I growled in her ear, "Bill isn't an alien!"
"You keep saying the last time," Green said to my innocently, "But you keep telling me the same thing! Why do you lie to me?" I rolled my eyes once more and forcibly dragged her as I followed Bill up to the Pokémon Center.
Bill wasn't kidding about the Pokémon Center being big. It was gigantic inside of it! The main lobby was at least as big as a football field and held a mini café inside of it where some trainers were drinking soda and coffee. In the right corner of the room, there was a large machine where a young man with greenish brown hair and glasses was working on it
"That's my friend over there," Bill said pointing to the young man, "He's been working on bring my Pokémon Storage System over to these islands! Hey Celio!"
The young man looked around and waved at us. "Hey Bill my man!" he shouted, "I'm glad you came here! I could use some help!"
"Of course!" Bill said walking over to him with us in tow, "I'm always available for my friends when they need me!"
"That's good know," Celio said with a smile, "Because I have been having a huge problem with this machine lately, but before I get to that, who these two that are with you?"
"Ah!" Bill said, "These two are inspiring trainers from the Kanto region. They are almost ready to face the Indigo League, they just need one more badge. Anyhow, this is Red Fire and Green Leaf."
"Nice to meet you two," Celio said extending his hand to shake, "I'm Celio of One Island."
"ALIEN!" Green shouted when he handed out his hand to her.
"What's with her?" he asked me about Green's odd outburst.
"She's just a bit eccentric," I said, "You get use to it after a while."
"Either way," Bill said to Celio, "What did you need me for?"
"You know how I been using your Pokémon Storage System here on the islands," he explained, "I'm almost ready to be able to connect the island system with Kanto's system soon, but that's not the problem. You see, I also have been trying to connect the system with Hoenn region's system, but since the contentient is so far away from here, I have been having difficulties trying to connect with them. The Kanto's system works with Hoenn and since you programmed it, I was hoping you would be able to connect the Sevii Islands with Hoenn."
"You're right," Bill said, "Hoenn is very far away from us, it was very difficult connecting the systems from Kanto to Hoenn, but since these islands are even farther from Hoenn, this will be very hard. I'll try to help you."
"So what about us?" I said.
"Don't talk to them!" Green hissed in my ear, "We could of escape from the aliens' grasp when they were too busy!"
"Yeah," Bill said with a half smile, "I guess you two don't want to be cooped up here during the whole time we are in the Sevii Islands. So I'll tell you what, you guys take this Tri-Pass which will allow you two to travel to Two & Three
Island and come back to One Island at anytime. This way, you guys can have some fun exploring the islands in the area while I try to help me friend here."
"I thought there were more islands than just 3," I said.
"There's more," Celio said, "But you need a Rainbow Pass for that but I'm sure neither one of us has one at the moment."
"Yeah," Bill nodded, "Either way, come back here in a few days and I'll take you two back to the main land."
"So we get to explore these tropical islands without any supervision?" Green gasped.
"Oh no," I said, "You're making the same face that you made when you discovered that we could travel anywhere in Kanto without anyone watching us. That's the chaos face."
Lilyana's View
Time: 11:47 a.m. Location: Outside the Viridian City Gym
"It's good to be back here," I sighed happily as I approached the front doors of the last gym, "This is it! My final badge! I'm about to win my final badge and enter the Pokémon League!"
I remember coming to this gym a while back when I first entered this town. It was locked up tight and according to some of the locals, the gym leader hasn't been back in a year. They also said that the gym leader that use to run the old gym that collapsed had return to take over.
"Here we go!" I said pushing open the heavy steel doors, "Time to face my last challenge before the league!" I walked in and the doors slammed behind me. The room was very dark and nothing inside was visible.
"Hello?" I called out, "Is there anyone in here? My name is Lilyana Masters! I'm from Jotho region. I wish to challenge the leader of this gym to battle for my final badge!"
A few small lights on the floor flickered on and illuminated a small path that led to a door at the end of it. The door then opened up slightly. 'This seems ominous for some reason,' I thought to myself, 'But I have to get this badge! If I
don't go through this door and get that badge, all my hard work will be for nothing. Here goes nothing, literally.'
I walked down the path and headed through the doors. In the room was a large, marble, polish battlefield in the center. At the far end was a large throne where an older man sat in. Torches lit the room on the walls and there were two other doors on the sides of the room.
"So," the man said to me, "You think you are ready this battle?" The man wore a black suit with a red R on the right corner of his suit. His pants were gray and pressed. He had black and brown hair that was slightly receding.
"Yes sir," I said to him, "I am ready for this! I want to challenge you for the badge so I can get into the Pokémon League!"
"Alright then," the man chuckled getting up from his seat, "I'll battle you and prove something to you as well."
"And what is that?" I asked him suspiciously.
"That you are not ready for the league," he laughed, "Do you think a baby such as yourself has a chance?"
"Yes I do," I growled, "I'll show you! After I beat you, the rest of my friends will come and beat you as well! We'll all get into the league!"
"I have serious doubts about your abilities," he said, "I also have doubts about your friends as well."
"Don't under estimate them!" I said getting angry that he was putting down my friends, "Some of them are weird and all, but they'll show you! In fact, my friend Red will…"
"Wait a minute!" the man said holding up his hand, "You know a trainer called Red? Red Fire by chance and perhaps his friend… oh what's her name?"
"Yeah!" I said confused, "I know him and his friend Green! Red and I like to consider ourselves a couple."
"Hmm…" the man said rubbing his chin and then he smiled evilly, "Since you seem to know him and his little friend, I'll have to ask you stay here and wait for them to come."
"Why should I wait?" I said.
"Because I said so," he said, "Plus, I'm not giving you a choice." I heard the door slam behind me and lock itself. I froze up in my spot then, what did I just walk into?
Author Notice: Yeah… not a very long chapter was it? Oh well! This chapter wasn't meant to be very long anyhow, more of an introduction into the Sevii Islands for the most part.
Hey! I got another OC sent in by another person recently. I will not be telling you this person's name or OC until the character makes an actual appearance in the story. I get to keep another secret from you all!
In the next chapter, Red and Green decide to check out Treasure Beach and arrive just in time for a special contest being held. Problem is however, an enemy is lurking among the contestants. This chapter will introduce you to what will most likely be my last O.C. created by myself in this story.
