I was planning on getting this one up on Tuesday, but then life happened and I was actually able to finish another chapter! So... yay! Sorry for the long wait on this one though, I really didn't mean for it to take this long for me to post it. Anyway, I hope you enjoy it and I hope I'm able to get all of the chapters up before I leave. Enjoy the next chapter!

Warnings: None? Police officer returns something and there's reassurance given to a character, but otherwise I can't think of anything.

Disclaimer: Don't own Pokemon, but Autumn is mine.


-Autumn's P.O.V.-

Saturday was amazing! We all met in front of Professor Kukui's house so we could have a place to avoid the sun if it got too hot outside, but we had the ocean to cool us down, "We've got plenty of food so dig in whenever you're hungry!" Mallow beamed as she put the multiple baskets of food on the ground.

Lana smiled, "At least we won't go hungry."

"Come on!" Ash pulled Lillie to her feet and started dragging her towards the ocean, "Let's go!"

"Ash! Slow down!" Lillie complained, but Ash didn't really hear with how fast he was going.

They were both soaked in seconds, "We did come here to relax and have fun," Sophocles mumbled, "But I didn't think that was what we would do."

"With Ash here we'll never relax by laying on the beach," I answered, even as I did just that, "He relaxes by moving around and playing."

"I never would have guessed," Lana said sarcastically.

Everyone chuckled, "Are you alright?" Kiawe asked me.

I nodded, "Fine, just trying to conserve energy."

He nodded as Mallow finished putting the food where she wanted, "Eat up when your hungry!" Mallow called out.

"Alright!" Ash ran back with Lillie sighing behind him, "Food!"

"Try not to eat too much," Lillie warned, "We don't want you getting sick."

"I won't!" His mouth was already full of food.

Kiawe huffed and shook his head as he stood up, "Hey, Ash! Wanna have a battle?"

Ash beamed, "We could have a team battle! Lillie, do you want to be my partner?"

Lillie frowned and looked at Snowy, "Snowy, are you alright for battling?"

"Let's do it!" Snowy agreed, smiling.

"Why is it always a battle with you two?" I grumbled, but got up anyway.

Kiawe smiled and helped me to my feet, "You don't have to be my partner if you don't want to."

I waved away his concern, "It's alright. Besides, Winter wants more battle practice."

Which was proven when Winter jumped beside Marowak, "Let's do this!"

Marowak smiled at Winter, "We'll make a battler of you yet! Just keep working hard!"

"I've got to so I can protect mommy and daddy!"

"What do you say Ash?" Kiawe suggested, "A Fire and Ice type battle?"

Ash just smirked, "Bring it on!"

Once the battle was over, we all went into the ocean and had a splash battle with Mallow and Lana being the 'queens' of the land and sea. I was starting to get tired when we all decided to eat lunch, but gained a little energy with the food. Still took a nap an hour after lunch though. Which was fine, everyone understood and added me into the fun when I woke back up. It wasn't until we were about to leave when Officer Jenny came up to us, "Sorry if I'm interrupting anything," She apologized.

"It's alright," Lillie smiled, "We were just getting ready to go inside."

"We finally convinced the others to watch Minior Wars!" Sophocles beamed.

"We're only watching the first one," Mallow reminded him, "Not all of them."

Lana smiled, "Unless their so good that we want to watch all of them and pull an all nighter."

Ash frowned, "I don't think the professors would let us do that."

Sophocles smirked, "Unless they don't know about it."

Officer Jenny cleared her throat, gaining our attention, "You shouldn't stay up all night. That's not good for growing teenagers."

"Officer Jenny?" Mallow asked, "Why are you here?"

"Right," She pulled something out of her pocket and held it out towards me, "We found this when we searched the house. I thought you might want it back."

Kiawe took it and gave it to me, nearly making me cry. In his hand was the gift Lillie had given me. The keychain with the Comfey flower in a crystal ball, "I… I thought I had lost this forever," I gently took it back and smiled at Officer Jenny, "Thank you so much!"

Officer Jenny just smiled back, "Your very welcome. Just tell me if you need anything else," Then she left and drove away on her bike.

"I was wondering why you haven't been keeping it close," Ash mused, "I guess I know why now."

"Come on!" Sophocles whined a bit, "If we don't start now we won't be able to finish Minior Wars before we have to go home!"

It was a nice end to the day and I definitely fell asleep before the movie was even half way over! It was also a great way to start the next week, where we only had three days of school before we went on a 'mandatory' break. Honestly though, I think it was to help Professor Kukui get the Alolan Pokemon League ready before the school year was over, "Break starts tomorrow!" Ash was beaming as we packed our school supplies away, "What should I do?"

"There's a huge fireworks display on Melemele Island!" Sophocles suggested, "Let's see it together!"

Then Lana, the only one who hadn't stood up yet, stood up and smiled at everyone, holding her hands out, "Attention please," She gained everyone's attention, "I'm happy to say, we have guests today!"

All of us looked at her in shock, "Huh?" We asked.

Then Misty and Brock ran in, "Alola!" They said, waving.

Misty gave us a peace sign, "Long time no see!"

Brock just smiled, "You look great!" He looked at me the longest which made me wonder if they heard about what had happened.

Ash was beaming, "Misty and Brock!"

"Alola!" We all smiled.

Misty just smiled, "I hope you like surprises!"

Lana walked over to stand next to Misty with Sandy on her shoulder, "Surprises are the best!"

Then Misty gasped and grabbed Eevee, "So cute!" She beamed, "You must be Sandy! I couldn't wait to meet you!"

Sandy just smiled, "It's great to meet you!"

Then Ash walked up to them, "Hey, how do you know about Sandy?"

Lana and Misty looked at each other and giggled, "Oh, that's easy," Lana answered, "After visiting Kanto, we stayed in touch."

"Right!" Misty continued, "We knew you guys would be on break, so we came to hang out."

We learned that Misty got her sisters to take care of the Cerulean Gym and Brock wanted to see the Pokemon center in Alola, "You really love your work!" Sophocles was impressed.

He looked even more impressed when Brock continued, "I haven't finished my studies yet. With imputing Autumn's knowledge and learning everything at the school, I've been busy."

Misty interrupted him before he could continue, "Here's the thing. We're here to have lots of fun! I hope you'll take us to all the best places in Alola!"

"You can count on us!" Mallow promised, "You took such good care of us in Kanto!"

"You'll love it!" Lana added, "There are so many great spots!"

"From now on, we're your tour guides!" Lillie finished.

Ash was just getting hyper, "Awesome! I'm getting so psyched!"

"We're getting psyched, too!" Misty agreed, "Alola, you'd better get ready for us! All right!"

"Yeah!" Everyone else yelled.

I just smiled, "Why don't we start with the Pokemon Center then?"

When we got there, Brock immediately freaked out at the sight of Nurse Joy, "It's Nurse Joy!" He ran forward and took her hand, "My name is Brock and I'm a Pokemon Doctor in training. It was all for this moment. Meeting you…"

And Misty marched forward and pulled him away by the ear, "You're done. I'm sorry, Nurse Joy."

Surprisingly Nurse Joy didn't seem phased as she saw me, "Autumn! Is this the friend you were telling me about? The Pokemon Doctor?"

I nodded, "Even though he hasn't finished his training, he's one of the best Pokemon Doctors you can find!"

Brock was beaming as Misty deflated a bit. Until a kid came in with Youngoos injured. Somehow, that trip ended up with us leaving Brock with Nurse Joy and us leaving to explore more of Melemele Island with Misty. She loved every place we took her, the Pancake place, the market and even Alola Sunrise… until she accidentally terrified her Corsola, "Autumn!" The manager smiled when she saw me, "I was wondering when you would be back. You haven't been here for a while."

I smiled, "Some things happened and I haven't been able to come recently."

Misty looked at me in shock, "You know the manager?!"

The manager, Luci, just looked at Misty, "Know us? She's our best customer! Of course, she never buys necklaces or earrings, but she buys all of her supplies here! We love it when she comes!"

"They create the best things!" Mallow beamed, "And at great prices as well!"

I wasn't surprised when they got a discount for buying something before we left and decided to go Mantine Surfing to Treasure Island. It was fun, even if most of my Pokemon wanted to go into their balls until we reached the island, but I didn't mind. While there, we let the Mantine swim around as we joined 'Ash's new friends' who turned out to be Exeggutor. I stayed with Lillie out of the water and in the shade, taking a small nap from the busy day. Until they moved to the beach and Riolu had to wake me up, "Can we make a sandcastle?" Winter asked when we reached the others.

I smiled, "Of course! Let's see how big we can make it!"

Of course, the vacation was interrupted by Team Rocket, but everyone dealt with them really quickly. I stayed out of it so my Pokemon wouldn't go on a rampage and completely destroy Team Rocket's robot. Although… that happened anyway so then I was wondering why I kept them out of it, "I can't believe Team Rocket followed you to Alola!" Misty looked at Ash in shock, "Have you ever been to a region where they weren't there?"

"No," Ash pouted as we got on the Mantine to go back, "Everywhere I go, they follow for some reason. I don't even know if they do it on purpose since I don't even know where I'm going until the day before I leave."

"You need to plan better," Lana deadpanned.

"You're telling me," I muttered.

Mallow smiled, "That's why he has Lillie! She helps him plan better!"

Lillie blushed as Misty beamed, "Great job Ash! Glad you finally looked past the Pokemon!"

Ash frowned, "I like the excitement of not knowing!"

"It's fun sometimes," Lillie agreed, "To just do things without planning, but sometimes you need to plan things."

"That's why Lillie and Ash are great partners," Kiawe said, "Lillie is Ash's reasoning."

"We should probably get going," Sophocles looked at the sky, "It's getting late."

"Mantike surfing!" Lana cheered and was the first one on the water, Misty right after her.

When we reached the mainland, we split to go to our separate homes. I went ahead of Misty and Ash, "I wonder if Brock will be home when we get there," Ribombee asked.

"Maybe he'll have food ready for us to eat," Riolu smiled, "I want to taste his food again!"

"Is it as good as mommy's?" Winter asked.

Riolu couldn't answer that which caused Oricorio and Sylveon to chuckle as Ribombee smiled, "Can't wait to try out his food then."

When we got there, Brock was cooking on the beach, "Hey Brock," I waved and walked over to him.

He looked up from stirring the pot, "Autumn! Where are Ash and Misty?"

"Their coming," I smiled, "I just came ahead so they could talk to the others a bit more."

"I see," He looked back at the pot as I smiled, "Are you doing alright?"

"Fine, why?" I didn't completely understand why he was asking either.

He stirred the pot once more before he answered, not looking at me, "I heard about what happened," He didn't have to expound on what, "And I want you to know that if Misty or I do something you're uncomfortable with, then just tell us and we'll back away," When I didn't say anything he continued, "Also, if you want to talk about anything, you can come to me."

I couldn't say anything for a moment. I just stared at him with tears coming to my eyes, but not streaming down my face yet, "Thank you," I finally whispered, smiling, "I'll… keep that in mind," Then I went inside to join the Professors for dinner while Brock, Ash and Misty ate outside on the beach. Until Psyduck ate all of their food.

Brock smiled sheepishly, "I forgot to bring extra," He admitted, "I have just enough food for every meal while we're staying here."

"You don't have to worry about that when you're on vacation!" Burnett objected, "Just come in here for any food you may need or want."

"We've got plenty," Kukui admitted, "Trust us."

Misty looked at Ash and asked, "I wonder who could be the reason behind that."

"It wasn't me!" Ash protested, "I only tried to cook once!"

"He's forbidden from cooking alone anymore," I smiled as I set the last bowl of Pokemon food down for the Pokemon.

"Thank you!" The Pokemon coursed and then dug in.

I just turned back to the others to see Brock looking at all of the food, "What is all of this?" He asked, "I've never seen food like it."

Kukui smiled, "Their all Alolan dishes. I hope you like them."

Ash was already beaming, "Alright! Let's eat!"

Instead of eating at the table like we used to do, we had been eating in the living room where there was more room for everyone. Even though we had to bring one chair because we had Brock and Misty with us. It was still a nice night and we were able to introduce Brock and Misty to Alolan Detective Laki, "You watch that every night?" Misty asked, sounding a bit curious.

Rotom beamed, "Of course! What else is there to watch?"

"It's one of the best shows in the world!" Roxy agreed.

Brock and Misty thought it was a bit weird, but neither minded to watch it, "Does Autumn guess who it is before it shows you every time?" Brock asked.

Ash laughed, "It's why she's not allowed to say anything when she's realized who did it and what happened."

"It's not my fault it's easy to figure out," I protested, "The actors who are guilty show it clear as day!"

It was a good night for all of us… and the first night where I momentarily forgot about what had happened.
