The gang rents bikes to take Cycling Road to Celadon City; however, they are biking uphill. It takes them about a week to reach the top, especially with all the biker gangs on route, but everyone got in a lot of training.
"Hey, snitch." cackles a large bald biker as he approaches Dillon. Dillon ignores him as the friends continue biking, but the biker's motorcycle speeds up to block Dillon. "I'm talking to you, D."
Aurora and Granite look at their friend worriedly while he seems unfazed by the large man. "I don't know who that is."
The man laughs loudly before getting off his bike and grabbing Dillon's shirt collar. Aurora and Granite quickly hop off their bikes and rush to Dillon's side. Pika and Pachirisu's cheeks are sparking angrily.
"You snitched on Clark." the biker glares at Dillon who shrugs.
"If you want to battle, just say so because I don't care about whatever you're saying."
This seems to irritate the biker who raises a fist back, but Pika sends a thundershock towards him. The biker releases Dillon in pain. Glaring at the group, he throws out a Weezing. "Snitches get stitches, D!"
A couple minutes later, Dillon and Pika easily defeat the biker, who backs off, allowing the group to continue biking.
"Is he a part of your old gang?" Aurora asks the boy who shrugs.
"The past is the past." Dillon mutters.
Eventually, the group makes it to Celadon City and are on their way to the Pokemon Center when Dillon is tackled by a group of women. "OMG. It's our little Dilly Poo!" Shouts a blonde woman.
"You're so handsome now, Dilly!" exclaims a dark bluenette.
"We missed you sooooo much, Dilly Poo!" a woman with pink hair chimes in. Aurora, Pika, and Pachirisu watch the scene confused. Dillon is in the middle of a group hug with three visibly older women.
Granite puts a hand on Aurora's shoulder and mutters to her, "Those are his aunts."
The girl nods in acknowledgement and Granite coughs to get the women's attention. They look over at the two people and two pokemon. "Um, like, who are you?" Asks the pinkette.
"They're my friends!" Dillon pipes in. He pushes past his aunts and there are many lipstick prints on his face. Aurora tries to stiffle a giggle and turns her head away to hide her amusement. The boy ignores her. "This is Uncle Brock's son, Granite." He motions to the tall man.
"Ohhh. I remember your dad." The blonde reponds and the three women greet him.
"And this is Aurora." Dillon motions to the girl who has managed to stop laughing to herself.
The light bluenette smiles at the women and extends a hand. "Hello! It's a pleasur-"
"Aw. Our little Dilly Poo has a girlfriend!" the dark bluenette chimes.
"Awwww" the other two women join in, and Dillon sighs. The blushing Aurora is about to object when she sees Dillon just shake his head towards her.
"Aurora, Granite, these are my aunts Daisy, Violet, and Lily." he motions to the women.
"Also known as, like, the Sensational Sisters!" pipes in the pinkette, Lily.
The blonde woman claps her hands together. "You are coming with us!" She exclaims and grabs Dillon's arm. Violet grab's Aurora's arm, and Lily grabs Granite's. They arrive in a nice hotel and head up to the Presidential Suite at the top.
Fortunately for Dillon, Aurora had to use the bathroom once they arrived, so Dillon quickly turns to his gushing aunts. "She doesn't know who I am!"
Violet gives him a confused look. "What do you mean? Everyone, like, knows who you are." Daisy and Lily nod in agreement.
"Yeah! Well, she doesn't. And if you love me, you won't let it slip about who I am! Nothing about being a Waterflower, being mom's sisters, nothing about me being a Ketchum, okay?" he exclaims while eyeing the bathroom door.
"Okay, Dilly Poo." Daisy agrees. "Anything for our nephew." She then plants a kiss on his forehead as he sighs in relief.
"Nice save." Granite chuckles which earns him a glare from the boy.
"But how does your girlfriend not know who you are?" Lily asks.
Dillon groans as Granite smirks. "She's not my girlfriend. She's just a friend."
"That's what your mom and dad always said." Violet mentions. Dillon takes a deep breath, but the door to the room opens and in walks a man with long black hair wearing a green shirt.
The man looks around the room confused until his eyes shine with familiarity. "Dillon! Granite!" He exclaims and hugs the younger males.
"Hi, Uncle Tracey." Dillon greets.
"Hey, Tracey." Granite smiles back.
Aurora is out of the bathroom now and smiles at Tracey. "Hello, sir. My name is Aurora. I'm friends with Dillon."
Tracey smiles back and shakes her hand. "Hey Aurora! I'm Tracey! Nice to meet you!"
"It's late, so Aurora can take the last spare room and you boys can sleep on the pullout sofa." Violet suggests. The young group agrees and everyone heads off to rest. It has been a long couple of days on the road, so Dillon is happy to be in a nice warm bed again, even if he is sharing it with Granite.
In Tracey's and Daisy's room, the couple is enjoying a nice conversation about their nephew. "I wonder why he wants to keep his identity a secret from her?" Tracey says curiously.
"I know, right? Like who wouldn't want people to know they're famous?" His wife says laying beside him.
Tracey laughs. "It's funny how we have Dillon Ketchum, Brock Slate, and this girl traveling together. It reminds me of when Ash, Brock, and Misty traveled together."
"Totally, right?" Daisy agrees. "Maybe they'll end up dating like Ash and Misty finally did."
"Probably. Dillon is a lot smarter than Ash and he's older now too." the man mentions. He thinks for a bit and then says, "We should probably check on Hailey and Benson."
Daisy scoffs. "Tracey, they're, like, finally out of the house so we can travel again. Leave them alone. I doubt they, like, want to hear from their parents every day."
He sighs. "I know. I just miss doing family things."
The blonde smiles at him and straddles his side as she sits on his stomach. She lowers her face to plant a kiss on his lips. Even after all these years, Daisy still manages to make Tracey blush profusely. "I guess I, like, have to show you how much fun we can have without them." She winks which causes him to get redder as the two share another kiss.
