Chapter 33
The ultimate Hangout
AN: Okay here we are chapter 33. This will be my last quickly made fic so savor it, it might take me a while before I finish my next chapter. So this will be the second chapter of this mini-arc. I might have finished earlier but I was helping some friends move. I hope you like this chapter.
Disclaimer: I still don't own yo-kai watch, if I did then the wildlife club would have had more to do in the third game.
Alex, Eric, and Kenny. These three made up the wildlife club. The three loved exploring the great outdoors and they were all good friends. Alex loved playing games outdoors, Kenny loved to catch bugs, and Eric just like looking at nature. The three were up at mount wildwood hanging out at the old rusted building just a bit away from catfish pond. They were talking about how they need stuff for their secret hideout. The group of kids were constantly exploring so they eventually found a spot and with Alex wanting to check out the sewer system they hit the jackpot.
At the shrine atop mount wildwood, a red shirt-wearing boy stood with a net in his hand, beside him were two of his friends a bulkier blue-clad boy with black hair peaked upward and a brunette girl in a white jacket with her hair up in a ponytail both also with bug nets. Unbeknown the boy in blue and the girl in the white jacket, Nate, the boy in red was being accompanied by two other beings he was with his ever-annoying yo-kai butler whisper and another close invisible friend Cadin the yo-kai cicada. Jibanyan wasn't with them at the time because he was training.
"Too bad Eddie couldn't come," said Nate to his two friends.
"Yeah, I haven't really seen him this summer not that I've seen you two, much," said Katie.
"Eddie's still locked himself in his room he claimed he's over Shelly and his mom said he was working on homework but I think he's still sad," said Bear.
"Hey, he might be fine besides it's just a crush." said Katie, "Plus that is Eddie for you I am surprised he hasn't finished his homework yet."
"That's what I said that's why I don't trust it," said Bear.
"Haha just because you and I haven't even really started our homework doesn't mean that Eddie is completely done," said Nate.
"I guess your right. We have been hanging out a lot," said Bear.
"Plus he has been doing things with that ghost club right?" asked Katie.
"Yeah it's sort of hard to plan everything with him and Zoey fighting all the time but I think things are a bit better with him around." said Nate, "He does know a lot of places with supposed ghost sightings and he is good at getting us into places. Between that and us I bet he doesn't do much homework but then again he is Eddie so who knows maybe he already finished."
"What about you Nate how do you like the ghost club?" asked Katie.
"Oh um I guess it's fine I just joined to help Lina and Zoey with something since they helped me out a while ago and I guess I just got used to it and it gives me a chance to hang out with Lucas and Eddie a bit more." said Nate, "You two wanna join?"
"Nah Ghost hunting isn't really my thing." said Bear, "I'm more the bug hunter." holding up his bug net with pride.
"I don't know I don't think I would be into it. Plus it might be hard to convince my parents to let me go out that late at night," said Katie. Nate didn't mention to her that the last time they snuck out of their homes to explore the museum.
"Yeah that's fine, but hey let's get bug hunting," said Nate.
"Yes while we still have time," said Cadin and Bear.
"Yeah!" said Nate and Katie.
"Okay then ready," said Bear.
"Set," said Katie.
"GO!" said Nate right before they ran off racing to find a rare bug despite the fact they knew Bear was going to win anyway. Right as they were running though Nate slammed into another person running the opposite direction. Both Nate and the other person ended up falling on to the ground. Nate saw that the person he ran into dropped a yellow hat. He knew immediately who this person was. They both rubbed their heads from bumping into each other, each of their friends running to check on them. Katie and Bear ran to Nate's side and Kenny and Eric ran to Alex's side.
All four friends asked, "Are you guys okay?!"
Nate got up first and said, "I'm fine sorry about that Alex."
Alex grabbed her hat off the ground put it on and got up, "no no that was my fault I wasn't looking where I was going. Sorry about that Nate."
"It's fine but hey what are you guys doing out here?" asked Nate.
"Well you see we are the wildlife club," said Kenny.
"Yeah and we were just about to go," said Eric.
"wildlife club? What do you guys do?" asked Katie.
"Well you see Katie we go exploring nature," said Alex.
"Yup we take pictures, collect rocks, and bugs all sorts of stuff," said Eric.
"Ah, it is amazing that these kids have such vibrant spirits," said Cadin.
"Yes it is so good to see kids doing things and not being glued to their devices," said Whisper right before he got back on his yo-kai pad.
"Yes we, especially you could learn from them," said Cadin.
"Yeah it's all pretty fun." said Kenny, "I see you guys are bug hunting right now."
"Yup," said Bear.
"So where are you guys heading off to?" asked Nate.
"Well, we actually—" Eric started before Kenny said, "Shhhh, shut up dude remember."
Eric said, "Oh right."
Alex said, "Well we would like to tell you but that is classified to everyone outside of the wildlife club."
Katie grinned and asked, "Hey what if we were to join? Then could we know?"
Alex said, "Then I guess we could tell you but only if you join and you can't bail out after that."
Bear said, "You said you guys just explore nature and collect things right, sounds perfect for me, I'm in."
Kenny said, "Nice to have a new member."
Eric said, "Yeah great to have you."
Katie said, "sure thing I'll be glad to join gives me an excuse to hang out with you more Alex, not that I need one, and exploring nature seems fun."
Alex hugged Katie and then said, "Glad to have you, Katie."
Kenny and Eric said, "Yeah, two more members one day nice."
Katie asked, "What about you Nate? You wanna join?"
Bear said, "Yeah seems fun, Nate.
Nate said, "Um well I would like to but I think I have prior loyalties to the ghost club. Can I join two clubs?"
Alex said, "Sure you could but I do see how our schedules could clash so hey what if we make you a temporary member."
Nate said, "Okay cool."
Eric said, "But wait what about the no bailing."
Alex said, "I think we can make an exception for Nate, I mean remember what we decided."
Bear asked, "What did you decide?"
Kenny said, "Well you see we made an alliance with the ghost hunting club."
Katie said, "Alliance?"
Alex said, "Yeah for our next couple projects we are going to be working with the ghost hunters' club so why not make Nate a temporary member I mean we are going to be working with him anyway so why not."
Eric said, "I guess then it's okay."
Bear asked, "So we are we going?"
Alex said, "Well guys we are going to go to our secret base."
Nate said, "Wow so you guys actually have a hideout."
Kenny said, "Yup and it's really cool."
Eric said, "We have a secret hideout your part of the club too."
Katie said, "That's awesome, so let's go."
Bear said, "Yeah I really want to see it."
Eric said, "Last one there is a rotten egg." Eric then started running with Katie and Bear right behind him.
Alex said, "you're on."
Kenny said, "you won't beat me."
Nate said, "Hey wait, that's not fair."
Cadin said, "Ah yes this is great fun come on whisper let's follow these kids."
Whisper said, "Hey wait you are all going too fast."
Cadin rebutted, "No my friend you are going too slow."
With Kenny in the lead with Eric, Katie, Alex, Bear, and Nate all following close behind, they ran down Mount Wildwood and past the schools to breezy hills. The kids then ran down some steps to get closer to the water and then into the sewer system. Into the underground waterway. The place was a bit dark a creepy like Nate knew it to be but then they reached a weird room. It was a bigger room covered in red carpet and wooden furnishings, for the waterway it looked terribly out of place.
"Woah!" said Bear, Nate, and Katie in unison.
"Wow this is a pretty sweet place," said Bear.
"Yeah this place is pretty amazing." said Katie, "How did you guys find this place?"
"Well really we were just exploring the sewers when we found this spot," said Eric.
"Yup it was that simple," said Kenny.
"Cool you sure no one is using this place?" asked Nate.
"No not really," said Alex.
"But no one has stopped us from coming so we think it's fine," said Kenny.
"Okay," said Katie, "So what are we going to do here?"
"Well this is a pretty sweet secret base but we need to stock this place up with a few things, we were planning on bringing some of our personal things but what we really need are some snacks and drinks this place has a fridge so we can store some things in there," said Alex.
"We could also use some magazines," said Kenny.
"Other than that we can just bring some personal things and we're good." said Eric, "So should we split the group in two one to get food one to get drinks."
"Wait first we should decide on what we want," said Kenny.
"Okay so what types of snacks does everyone want?" asked Alex, "I want a few choco bars."
"I want some 10-cent gum you know some of the mint kind," said Eric.
"Um… I want some gooey candy," said Kenny.
"Let's see I think I could go for some Giant Crackers," said Bear.
"You know I feel like I could die for some fruit drops," said Katie.
"I don't really feel like candy but um here you go I have all of those," said Nate as he pulled out the candy they listed from his bag.
"Are you sure you want to hand all that candy over Nate it did cost you a lot," said Whisper.
"Plus a lot of that is for your yo-kai friends," said Cadin.
Nate whispered under his breath, "It's fine I can always get more and it will be worth it for all my friends not just yo-kai."
"Wow Nate you had all this on you," said Bear.
"That's crazy, you must be quite the snacker Nate," said Kenny.
"That must have cost a lot," said Eric.
"Really Nate you're just giving us this," said Alex. All four were surprised and confused at Nate's gesture.
"That's really kind of you Nate," said Katie, "Pretty convenient how you had all of that on you."
"Yeah pretty luck," said Nate, "And I don't mind her you go." Nate then gave a few pieces of candy to everyone.
"Good job Nate, just put them in the fridge," said Eric.
"Yeah that way we can save some for later," said Kenny.
"Thanks again Nate," said Alex. Nate walked over to the fridge and started to put the candy into organized places in the fridge.
"So what should we get to drink?" asked Bear, "Ah I could really go for a Y-cola."
Eric said, "Same here dude."
"I could go for a soul tea," said Kenny.
"I sorta want fruit milk," said Katie.
"Me too," said Alex.
"You know I think I have all of those," said Nate.
"Really!?" said a surprised Bear, Kenny, and Eric.
"Let me see, fruit milk, Soul tea, and Y-cola, yup got them all," said Nate.
"Wow that's crazy Nate," said Katie.
"Yeah you really come stocked up," said Alex.
"Amazing how you have everything we need," said Kenny.
"Wow Nate you are being quite generous today," said Whisper.
"Mhm very gracious *ming ming*," said Cadin. Nate continued to put stuff in the fridge as he started to take out drinks to putting them on the little shelves on the side of the fridge.
"Okay what about other snacks," said Kenny, "I sort of want some leaf rice balls."
"Yeah I am in the mood for Mochi oddly enough," said Eric.
"I feel like a store sandwich is that weird," said Bear.
"I would love Snow-peas right now," said Katie.
"Some potato chips about now sound great," said Alex, "I bet you don't have all of that Nate."
"Leaf rice balls check, Mochi check, Everymart sandwich check, Snow-peas check, potato chips check. That's everything right," said Nate.
"What the heck," said Kenny.
"You seriously have all that?" asked Eric.
"Yup," said Nate.
"Wow Nate you really came loaded," said Bear.
"Yeah I am glad we made an exception for you Nate," said Alex.
"I think we are all good on food," said Eric.
"And drinks," said Kenny.
"All we need now are some magazines," said Bear.
"Yup and our own personal things," said Alex, "I think I want a think karate book. I'm taking classes you know."
"I could catch up on a skill compendium." said Eric, "I draw inspiration from that book."
"Oh I want to read the pest's quest." said Kenny, "Someone recommended it to me."
"I want to read a get guarding," said Bear, "I feel like it could be a good read."
"Ooh a support life book would be great," said Katie, "I heard issue seven came out."
"Okay, I have a get guarding for Bear, I have the pest quest for Kenny, I have a skill compendium for Eric, I have a support life #7 for Katie, and sorry Alex I only have a Use Karate," said Nate as he pulled out each book.
"Woah Nate, you kidding a Use Karate is better than a think Karate," said Alex.
"Wow you have more books than Sarah," said Katie.
"Or Eddie," said Bear.
"How do you fit all of this in your bag?" asked Kenny.
"Wow Nate you really are giving these guys a lot," said Whisper.
"Yes how noble," said Cadin.
"I can't believe you are giving us all this," said Eric.
"It's fine besides the books I just found," said Nate.
"Wow you're being so cool about this Nate," said Alex.
"I guess that just means we need our own personal things," said Kenny.
"Okay we will all meet back here after we grab our things." said Alex, "Let's go." The six went their separate ways. They grabbed their things. Alex grabbed a soccer ball, a baseball bat, and a few cups, and an old lamp, as well as a small red ottoman. Bear brought a collection, a few extra nets, and fishing rods, and a couple Manga comics. Katie brought a few old plates, a few blankets, and some pillows. Eric brought some paper, pens, pencils, and a camera. Kenny grabbed his bug collection, a few bug traps, his net, some black syrup, a chest, and a bucket to use as a trash bin or something. Nate took a music player, his net and rod, and a couple blankets and an old ottoman he got from Hidabat.
"Wow we got a lot of good stuff," said Eric.
"I'll say, dude, I didn't even know you could catch a bug like that here," said Kenny as he looked over Bear's collection. Cadin was impressed by Bear's bug collection too.
"Yeah but look at these traps these are so cool," said Bear.
"You know this place is really coming together," said Katie.
"I think we did good today." said Alex, "I say we call it in."
"Okay then," said Nate. Just then though a woman and her golden coated dog came into the room.
"Oh my what do we have here?" asked the woman.
"Oh no Nate it looks like this place belongs to someone after all," said Whisper.
"Oh dang it, um sorry ma'am we thought this place was free so we just set up our wildlife club here," said Alex.
"Oh! Hmm." said the Woman.
"It's fine me and my friends can leave if you want," said Alex. Nate, Katie, Bear, Kenny, and Eric nodded.
"Um, actually I am fine with you kids hanging out in my little home away from home. I love the idea of your little club." said the woman, "you can stay as long as you like. In fact, I would like to join the club if I may."
"Sure thing ma'am, thank you for letting us use this space." said Alex, "That is super kind of you."
"See Whisper anyone can be giving," said Nate.
"I guess you're right," said Whisper.
"Oh and Nate we found this when we first came here the lady says it's not hers so we think you should have it," said Alex as she tossed him a yellow key card.
"And giving always gives back," said Cadin.
AN: So there it is chapter 33. This one was a bit more about the wildlife club nothing too eventful yet but this will build up and if you were paying a bit of attention you can see that the Wildlife club will be teaming up with the Ghost hunters' club so they will become important. Be on the lookout for boss chapters. I might be a little while before I post another chapter so please be patient I was lucky to get three in this week. I feel really good about this and I feel really good because in my book my latest fic, "What Does a Kiss Mean?" was a success, for any Amourshippers reading this I recommend it. Anyway, I hope you like this chapter, please review.
