So sorry about that, life has been a real kicker lately but let's see... since the last chapter, Americas had Thanks Giving so happy to ya'll who does that... all those celebrations in December so happy Hanukkah, Kwanzaa, Yule, Christmas etc... Its turned 2018 for the vast majority of the planet so I hope that's going good so far annnnnnnndddddddd I've personally had my own birthday so also happy birthday to anyone that's had a birthday and celebrates it.
Now IDK how long this chapter will be but I will say that there is a VERY important note at the end that involves you guys so I ask that you read it, until then hope you like it and forgive any mistakes, I do proofread but I am in no way perfect and miss stuff.
The blonde looked up to the digital screen that sat on a seemingly random wall-like structure. This wasn't out of the ordinary as these things where scattered around Hymichu, they were digital maps to be exact, mostly used by new trainers or travelers to find stations or centers in the town but to those not used to the area or whom are new to Hymichu... These posts could be rather daunting.
Trinity on the other hand had the biggest smile, yes, she had no idea what in Arceus name she was doing other than looking for 'Jason' but she was happy to not only be away from that weird blond boy and the penthouse... But also because she got to have her friends out 24/7 now!
"Can you see a Jason anywhere?" She asked, squinting her eyes a little to try and see a bit better through the blue glow.
"I'm pretty sure he's a human..." Muffin stated bluntly from her shoulder. Trinity turned her head slightly to smile brighter at her grumpvee.
"Oh I know, but Miss Hazel's name is on here see!" She reached up to the list at the side, touching 'Hazel Laboratories' causing the map to zoom out then focus on the location of interest. The blonde gave a smug smile to her emovee, Elvis –whom had just jumped onto her shoulder- did the same.
Muffin just huffed, "Yes but that's because her lab is here you dimwit."
Elvis dropped his own smirk and decided to actually look at the screen properly, "Underground... Pokémon Center... Café Nori... Oh wowie, there aint even a mention of a gym here!"
"Hum?" Trinity chirped, looking back to the screen herself, squinting her eyes more to try and get a better look.
"Might I intervene Mistress-" Mitzy flew around, a hint of concern on her face, "The maps in this town only show the locations and points of interest within Hymichu itself as do the maps of the other respective towns and cities in Hanachi." She inched a little closer to her trainer, causing her to take a step away from the wall, "And remember, the Professor said it might be best to retrace our steps from the previous journey, not to go straight to Master Kato."
Trinity was about to interject but was cut off by Elvis jumping back to the floor, eagerly jumping between each front paw, "Nah I got a better idea! Just follow me! We'll get your memory back in no time!"
"I recommend you don't." The ghost type bluntly stated, receiving a rather dirty look from the dark type and one of utter confusion from the human. Mitzy just smiled brightly in return, "Elvis is as smart as bait after all-" Trinty giggled at that while Elvis jumped back onto her Muffinless shoulder, smiling triumphantly from the 'compliment'. "If anyone, you should probably follow Muffin seeing as... well as far as we know, he was you're first Pokémon."
The blonde looked to the normal type on her other shoulder, he looked so dead inside that it was generally concerning. He gave a yawn, more in annoyance than his usual tiredness; Muffin briefly looked between the two girls and promptly shook his head, "All I know is that you should go to some human thing... or something just as stupid."
"Eh-" Trinity uttered, grabbing the Pokémon by the scruff of his neck and holding him in front of her face, "B-but why? You where my starter, right? Then you should know your way around!"
"Idiot." The Pokémon blurted out, earning gasps from his fellow party members, "Fun fact, starter Pokémon are almost always Grass, Water or Fire type. Whereas I CAN evolve into one of said three it doesn't mean that I AM. I, Muffin the damned Eevee, am a NORMAL type. I have no idea of anything in this stupid town." He began to wiggle out of her grip only to hurt himself when his longer fur got pulled causing him to stop. "And for the record, those two are Dark and Ghost type meaning you don't even have a proper starter..."
"Gosh dude... No need to be so harsh." Elvis piped out.
"Though it pains me, I must agree-" Mitzy added.
Trinity, noticing his discomfort, repositioned the two of them so she instead held him in both hands, "So if I evolve you, you'll be a starter?"
He rolled his eyes, "No- Ahhh- just..." He took a second to think of his words, then lowered his head in defeat, "I'm trying to say I have no Arceus damned idea okay?!"
"Oh-" Trinity stated now understanding, "Well why didn't you just say that instead of making it all confusing?"
"Actually Master!" Elvis called as he jumped to the floor, "I think he was onto something!" The others turned to see what the dark type was talking about. The Zorua was in the typical 'point' position, his nose directed at a bench a little away, lo and behold on it sat a boy not much younger than the blonde. He was simply eating lunch by the looks of it but sitting across from him was a Steenee that also seemed to be enjoying a snack.
"...I don't get it..." The girl mumbled.
Muffin huffed, "Steenee is a grass type."
"Yeah so?"
"Mistress-" Gastly began, floating forward a little to be next to her face, "It appears he's a young trainer with his starter. Their saying he may be able to help you."
"Oh!... Oh... Do I have to?" Trinity whined looking between each Pokémon as they nodded. She sighed, letting Muffin return to her shoulder and followed the dark type over.
"Ah! This is so cool, right Steetnee?" The boy waved his new Pokedex around, looking joyously at the screen.
"Steet! Steetnee!" The grass type charmed.
"Now we can keep track of all the grass types we meet! Oh, and I guess fire, water, ghost- "
"Steet nee nee neeeee!" The Pokémon laughed causing its trainer to laugh too.
It was then that Trinity appeared, large fake smile on her face, brown fluff on her shoulder and floating purple ball of paranormal mass at her side. Where Elvis had ran off to? In all honesty she had no clue-
The boy looked confused, both him and his Pokémon having stopped laughing but although fake, the smile on her face didn't deter him, "Well hi there!" It was then that he noticed the loose bandages around her head, "Nice fashion choice by the way!"
Trinity just awkwardly stood there for a second then proceeded to nudge her Gastly a little as a prompt to help her the heck out. This once again confused the boy, especially as the ghost type just floated there while the blonde seemed to lean into it a bit, you know, like someone listening to a secret would; but eventually she spoke.
"Em... Hi- I-I'm wondering if eh..." She stopped for a second to 'listen' to her Gastly again, "I was wondering if you eh... If you knew your way around Hanachi?"
"Oh?" He looked back to his own Pokémon for a second then waved the device in his hand around, "Do you have one of these? Professor Hazel gave it to me! It has a Pokedex, a map, a phone... All new trainers get them!" He smiled back at her as she shook her head.
"Oh eh... No, not this time-"
"Wait..." He mumbled, looking her over properly, "So you're not taking on the league? I don't blame you, the Champion is apparently unbeatable- I'm only doing it to join the Elite Four!"
Trinity just blinked, properly looking at Mitzy this time only to mumble something like 'I'm pretty sure it doesn't work like that-' "Oh no, I don't think I am but ehhh..."
"Hay, wait a second-" He cut her off, standing up and getting an even better look at her, paying close attention to her hair and face, "Mind if I ask, what's up with all the bandages? -"
"...Can you just tell me where to go please?"
"Hm?" The boy took a step back and nodded, "Sure I can! But doesn't mean I will."
The girl just groaned in annoyance, "Oh for the love of-" she took a few deep breaths to calm herself, "Look, I'm just trying to retrace my steps and I need a starting point, I've already been to see Miss Hazel, and I haven't made any progress in this town so I-"
"Okay girl, chill." He interrupted again, smiling brightly at her while holding his hand out, "You're lucky I'm going to where everyone starts out myself, so I'll take you with me! Now what's your name?"
She looked at his hand confused for a moment then back to his face, "Oh eh- People keep calling me Trinity but I also keep hearing the name Quinn being thrown around-"
"Coooool!" The boy cheered, jumping in excitement, "I'm Lason! And this is my partner Steetnee!"
"Steetnee!" The grass type chirped.
"Wait, wait- " She looked to her Gastly, the two turned away from him and began whispering, "Does he mean Jason?"
"No Mistress," Mitzy answered, "Lason. L not J. But he seems to know what he's doing so trust him, okay?"
"Excuse me, Trinity?" The boy spoke again. She turned to the voice, jumping a little from his sudden closeness. He laughed a little, putting his hands up in defense, "Sorry! Sorry, I just- I couldn't help but notice your Eevee there. Do you plan on evolving him? Might I suggest Leafeon? I'm sure there must be some mossy rocks somewhere-"
"Oh no eh, maybe? I'll think about it but can we just go to the place now?"
"Oh yeah!" He went back to the table, grabbing his bags and did a quick check to ensure he hadn't forgotten anything, "We're going to the traveler hub, it's a place for new travelers really but they have a battle ground too for if you want to train," he explained, as he zipped up his bag and checked his belt for all his Pokeballs, "I'm sure we can get you a map at least from there. Come on!"
Trinity smiled between her two Pokemon, Muffin not really paying any attention while Mitzy seems only half pleased obviously being the only one to care about the lack of Elvis...
So, getting straight to the point, I can't wright Pokémon battles –I can hardly wright in the first place- and I was wondering if someone could help me with it. Seriously action is just not my thing, whenever I do that it just ends up being awkward... -.- So many failed fanfics- So eh, anyone has any advice or wants to help or whatever, please PM me.
ALSO, SOZ FOR THE KINDA ABRUPT ENDING TO THE CHAPTER! People told me that they'd prefer shorter chapters and stuff so depending on what's happening, as long as I got over 1,000 words, I'll just end it on a transition (I usually do about 3,000-6,000 words per chapter but imo the shorter chapters do work better for this fic)
And lastly! GIVE IT UP FOR THE FIRST SYOC LASON REAVES! Who belongs to the lovely FinalPower, lovely boy he is XD, FinalPower please tell me if I made any mistakes with him or if you want anything changed, I did try to keep to how he was described but as mentioned at that start, I am not perfect and am happy to change anything if it doesn't suit you.
For the record, Trinity belongs to me and all Pokémon belong to Nintendo –I know it goes without saying but I figured I should give credit where its due!
