The First Badge
"Did I mention I caught a Mankey?"
"About 6,000 times, Ray."
"Cha, pi pika chu, Pikapi." [Yeah, so shut up, Ray.]
We join our heroes as they continue on their exciting journey.
"I caught a Mankey!!" Ray annoyingly shouted.
"SHUT UP!!" Sky and Pikachu replied in unison.
"Sorry." he muttered.
"Pikacha pi Pikapi, cha pika chu pi..." Pikachu sang.
"What in the heck are you singing?" Sky inquired.
"Pika." [Nothin'.]
"Mmmhmm, sure." Ray said sarcastically.
"Hey! Isn't that the next town?!" exclaimed Sky.
A sign ahead of the three read:
Welcome to Firestar City!
"Well, we made it! It took a long time, but we made it!" Sky exhaustedly said.
"On to Flara's gym!" Ray yelled, then energetically sped down the rolling hillside.
"Cha pi!" [Wait up!]
And the others followed.

Meanwhile...
"What do you MEAN the plan couldn't pull through??!!!" A woman with neon blue hair was shouting at a young man with slick blonde hair and bright shining green eyes.
"I, I, I tried but..."
"Oh shut up! I am so sick and tired of you never succeeding! That Flara MUST be captured! Do you understand?"
"Yes, ma'am."
"Now get out of here before I really lose my temper!"
"Alright, Duplica. I won't fail you this time."
"Shut up, Dani, and get OUT!"
The teen ran out of the room, his dark cloak billowing behind him.
"Yes, you better not fail, or heads will roll, Dani. Heads will roll." she faintly whispered.
***********************************
Sky bent over, panting heavily.
"Geez! Why do you have to run so dang fast?"
"I dunno, why did ya hafta follow me so darn quickly? Ya know, I woulda waited up for ya."
"Why I outta...."
"Sky? Ray?"
"Huh?" Sky and Ray looked over their shoulders.
A man stood there, towering over them. He had spiky brown hair, slightly faded. He also wore a yellow shirt with black jeans.
"Professor Oak?!" the two friends were astonished.
"Um, hi?" the professor asked nervously.
"Why aren't you at home?" Sky queried.
"I, um, was visiting someone..." he stammered.
"Who?"
"Gary, do these guys want a badge?" a girl's voice suddenly appeared with a young woman with bright red hair tied in a perfect braid. She also had glowing brown eyes.
"Um, yeah, Flara."
"What are your names?" she bent over staring into Ray's eyes. He finished tying his shoe, and stood up.
"I...uh, um, ya see, uh..."
"His name's Ray Gettit, that's Pikachu, and I'm Skylee. But please, call me Sky."
"What a lovely Pokemon you have here. Whose is it?"
"Mine!" Ray suddenly shouted.
"I think it's cute. But cuteness won't get you anywhere. How bout a battle, hm?"
"Yeah! I want ta battle first!"
"Okay, Ray, let's get started, shall we?"
"Alright! I choose Pikachu!"
"Go! Quilava!"
And the battle began. Pikachu started off with a shocking Thunderbolt attack, and Quilava responded with Fire Spin. The battle commenced, and in the end, Flara was left with her fourth Pokemon, Typhlosion.
"Ray! Watch out, that's a tough Pokemon!"
"I can beat it! Pikachu, Lightning Shadow!"
A blue aura surrounded Pikachu, its tail pointed toward the heavens. Abruptly, black thunder struck Typhlosion, the ground shaking madly, and then there was silence. Typhlosion stood there, wavering a little in a rhythmic pattern, then it collapsed. Ray stared unblinkingly, and slowly, a grin crossed his face. He then shouted victoriously, his fist high in the air.
"YES! We did it, buddy!"
"Chachu, Pikapi!" [Alright, Ray!]
Sky stood with admiration, then glanced at Flara. But instead of seeing the girl, a pokeball lay where she had been standing. She pointed this out to Ray, then looked around, but Flara was nowhere to be seen. The little black Pikachu pushed open the pokeball, and found not a Pokemon, but a tiny slip of paper.
"Huh? What's that, Pikapal? A note?" Ray watched the Pokemon curiously.
"What does it say?" Sky asked, walking over to where the other trainer sat.
Ray unf0lded the paper after Pikachu handed it to him, then gasped.
"Wa?" Sky then repeated the action.
"Chu!" [Whoa!]
