Now, I'm going to tell you a secret.
That only I, and Emerald of course, know about.
She can talk.
Emerald.
We have kept it a secret for the rest of the family (For their own good...).
I don't know where she got the ability from. There are very, very, very few Pokémon that can speak the human toungue.
Well, Emerald is one of them.
And we can talk about ANYTHING... Mostly we talk about boys. And Caterpie boys, of course.
...........
I sat down, and unpacked the sandwich that I've brought with me.
I gave Emerald a third of it, and then we started to eat under silence.
"You know, Ruby" Emerald said, looking me in the eyes. Aw, those eyes. "I just want to ask you a question... Is there a thing called Perfect Love? I thought no one was perfect. You have always said so to little Emerald..."
"Clever as always, Emerald" I said and smiled, giving her another part of the sandwich. "Well, perfect love is the largest treasure of all, Emerald. You can't buy it, and that's why its so precious."
"Well, have you any idea where we should start looking?" Emerald asked and gaved me a sharp look. "Maybe Emerald should help you to dig behind the nearest bush. With a little luck, we'll find a beautiful prince buried there..."
"Aw, stop, Emerald." I said, slapping her on her little head. A bit too hard, since she fell down from the rock she was sitting on."You know that's not what I meant! There is no treasure map for this hunt, darling."
I picked her up in my arms.
"Come on. Let's leave the path for a while. Maybe we could find some handsome Caterpies for you..."
Emerald nodded, and we walked out in the woods.
"You don't want to do this for poor little Emerald, isn't it so?" Emerald said in my ear. She was sitting on my shoulder. "You only hope to find a handsome young wood-chopper with muscles as big as the trees he cuts down... Isn't it so?"
"Of course not!" I said, honestly. My hopes were to find a handsome young TRAINER. Wood-choppers are always old geezers with amnesia. Remember that. Always...
Suddenly, I spotted a dark-haired boy, lying between the trees, taking a nap.
"Be quiet, Emerald." I whispered to my Caterpie. "Isn't he handsome?"
"First you say "Be quiet" and then you ask me a question!" Emerald said, loudly. "So, do you want me to be quiet, or do you want me to answer your question? I get confused you know..."
"Then...Hmm, be quiet."
Caterpie said something that I couldn't hear. And I didn't care.
I sneaked towards the boy, thinking of something clever to say. But my brain were currently on stand-by. My instincts had taken over.
Grr...
Suddenly, I stumbled over a root, and I fell over him, nearly crushing his ribs when I landed on him.
He woke up with a scream, and he waved his arms like he had some kind of attack.
He slapped me in the face, making me fall backwards, and then he got up on his feets like a rocket that just had been launched.
"Dammit, you scared me!" he said, wiping the un-existing dust off his clothes. It was a symbolical act...
"I'm so sorry..." I said with my softest voice as I put on the nicest smile I could muster.
"Um...that's fine..." He said, blushing. "I just broke some ribs, but they can be fixed..."
"What are you doing in the forest all alone?" I asked, sounding almost like my old grandmother. Geez, was I really that nervous?
"I'm taking a nap. And I'm waiting for someone."
No! My whole inside screamed in my head, and I let out a sigh, right in the face of the boy.
"And I thought that you and I really had something undergoing!" I said, and I didn't hold back the anger.
I could hear Emerald laugh quietly.
"Ruby are an angry girl... Ruby are an angry girl..."
"Oh dear god of heaven help me!" the boy shouted in my face, and pointed on Emerald. His hand was shaking. One of his attacks again. "A talking bug?!"
I nodded, like there was nothing to it. The boys whole body was shaking, and he couldn't control himself.
"I.......D-D-D-D-Don't li-li-li-like b-b-b-b-b-ugs!" he said. He was trembling, and his eyes were big as footballs, looking like they would pop out any second.
"Don't tell me you are afraid of this little thing?" I asked, rasing my eyebrows.
The boy nodded. He was lying on the ground, and still his body was shaking.
"You should be afraid!" Emerald yelled, taking advantage of the situation. "I can make you tremble enough to start a minor earthquake! I'm the godess of darkness, the queen of shadows and the duchess of evil... I am the horrible and fearsome, and absolutely gourgeus.... Emerald! Yahoo!"
The boy didn't answer. He had fainted. At least his attacks had stop.
"Emerald!" I said, giving her a sharp look. "You destroyed my date!"
"Sorry!" Emerald said, with a guilty undertone in her light voice. "Couldn't stay away..."
"It's allright" I said and threw a stone in the boys head. He didn't wake up.
"Is he dead?" Emerald asked, and her large eyes looked a bit worried.
"I don't think so, Emerald" I replied. "You were too much for him... He just fainted. And it didn't really matter, anyway. He isn't the perfect love. He's a wimp. A jerk. Nothing for me, really...."
"Glad to hear that, Ruby" Emerald said in my ear. "Lets get going before the one he's waiting for arrives. I can bet a million that it's a wood- chopper..."
..................
Our walk continued. I carefully wrote in my notebook.
*Number 1:*
*Name: Don't know. Didn't ask. Didn't want to know.
*Look: Dark-haired. Beautiful eyes.
*Favourite Dinner: Didn't ask. Didn't need to. Anything without bugs...
*Favourite Movie: I don't know. At least I know that he isn't watching something with bugs...
*Most Used Words: I'm afraid of bugs. (Nearly the only thing he said.)
*Approved By Emerald: No. She scared him so much that he fainted. Probably, she didn't like him. But that's just a guess...
*His problem: Afraid of bugs. VERY afraid of bugs. Especially talking bugs.
*Relationship Duration: 0 years, 0 months, 0 hours, 0 minutes. It never existed. And it won't.
*My Perfect Love: NO.
I wrote NO with particulary large letters.
"I want a book too!" Emerald shouted in my ear. "Please, please, please..."
"But you can't write! And you can't even spell to I! And you sure can't hold a pencil with the sucker-cups you use as feets."
"But Emerald wants a book!" Emerald said, with the softest voice she could. She tried to win my compassion. As she always did when she wanted something.
"No, I said!"
"If I don't get a book, I want pancakes and waffles for breakfast. And yummy, yummy strawberry-jam and extra sugar!"
"Aw, you're driving me nuts, Emerald!" I said, letting out a sigh." You won't get a book. Pancakes and waffles....Okay... I make some..."
"NO!" Emerald yelled in panic. "Not your waffles, poisonous. Baaad... Could get killed...I don't want to die!"
"Aw, shut your little mouth!" I said, feeling my anger rising like a fire...
"But Emerald wants cookies! You can't deny poor little Emerald some cookies!"
"You won't get any cookies if you keep BUGging me!"
"Okay...I'll be quiet as a...quiet Emerald..."
"Then you won't be so quiet, won't you?" I said, getting more and more frustrated. "We have to get back to the path. In the city, there is plenty of handsome guys..."
"But what about Emerald?!" Emerald yelled in my ear.
"That's it!" I said. "You won't get a book, you won't get any pancakes or waffles or cookies!"
"No cookies?"
"No cookies! Do I have to brain-wash you before you understand?"
"Emerald understand..." Emerald said with a sad voice.
"Aw!" I said and stopped. I took off my backpacks and grabbed the cookies. "Here! Eat until you get as fat as Ken! I warned you, Emerald..."
Emerald shook her head, and started to feast on the cookies.
I let out a sigh.
She sure was a stubborn Caterpie...
............ Authors Note:
Well, how do you like it? I think its pretty good, even though I'm only using the ideas that didn't fit in The Adventures Of Jason...
Well, anyway, stay tuned as Ruby and Emerald continues their search for the perfect love...
