Prologue
Hello!
What's up with everyone? Are you shocked at how Ellie pulled through against that monstrous Onix of that skank Fran? I know I am!
The past two days have been very exciting! First of all, Crimson and Elekid won an easy match.
It was so funny to watch! First of all, Sparky had to duke it out with a cute Teddiursa. Not only was it cute, but it was really powerful! It kind of reminds me of myself! Well it was a long battle but with a few good attacks, Sparky floored the teddy bear pokemon.
Then, the funny battle was between Sparky and a Wooper. At first Wooper was kind of winning, especially when it spun Sparky like he was wing on a helicopter. But that turned out to be a huge mistake! With CJ's cleverness, we did something that I like to call "Drunken Master" while Sparky was dizzy from the attack. Sparky used a few moves and Wooper was defeated. But the side effect was that he was still too dizzy to fight, so I returned him to his crystal ball.
After that, I called out Crimson. Bobby, the challenger, sent out a Squirtle. He actually thought that he had that round won. But he doesn't know how much we trained and Crimson completely overwhelmed everyone with his skill. It was a great match and it led to an awesome victory.
I also ran into my dear friend, Hannah, the person who was kind of responsible for me winding up in the hospital for having had a minor concussion or something, I forget what it was. After some talking we parted ways.
Oh! My battle with Fran was really tough! I mean her pokemon weren't pushovers but she was really annoying with her haughty attitude. After us knocking each other's pokemon out we finally came down to the last round.
I couldn't make up my mind on whom to send out so Ellie decided for me. In the spur of the moment she leaped out to battle but she was completely overwhelmed when she found herself up against an Onix.
I was so worried! To make things worse Fran made me angry and nobody likes me when I'm angry. After telling her off, I went back to being a pokemon trainer. At first, the rock snake was crushing Ellie. But with some clever thinking and cooperation, Ellie fooled the Onix into knocking itself out with his tail.
Well, let's get on with the story, I'm getting anxious!
The Actual Chapter
"So, how's Bulbasaur?" I ask Hannah as we eat lunch at a small cafe on Jonquil Road in Little Cocoa.
Jonquil Road is the second most important road on Little Cocoa after Carnation Road. It's home of the famous Jonquil State Building, the place where all the important pokemon stuff goes on. Well as far as like rules and research is and whatnot.
I'm eating a turkey club sandwich with a small Pepsi while Hannah eats a cheeseburger and a 7up. It's really tasty and this makes up for my lunch that I missed while I was battling.
"Bulbasaur is fine; she is a lot stronger than she was when we battled our grass pokemon." Hannah informs me.
"That's good." I say.
"Yeah, we did a lot of training." She admits as she takes a sip of her beverage.
"Ellie was kind of foolish earlier but I'm very proud of her." I tell Hannah.
Ellie is at the pokemon center being healed by Nurse Joy. I hope that she's okay, she was really weak and tired after the match.
"Yeah, but Ellie cares a lot about you. She wants to keep you happy at all times. I guess that is why she did that for you." Hannah infers.
"You're right!" I exclaim.
"I know." Hannah says jokingly.
We laugh for a little bit and then we finish our meals I beckon for the waiter to bring our receipt.
I really wish that the Daycare will open back up soon, I need some money. I want to make sure that I'll have enough for whatever I do to enter another pokemon league after this is over.
"It all comes up to seven dollars and fifty cents." The waiter says.
We split the cost and pay him, leaving a four-dollar tip for the service.
Then we rise from our seats and leave the cafe.
"So Hannah, are you dating someone?" I ask her with a smile.
"Actually, I am. It's long distance though." She says.
"That's wonderful! What's his name?" I ask.
"His name is Joshua. He's the dreamiest guy that I've ever seen!" Hannah says with stars in her eyes.
She must really like this Joshua guy.
"He should be here soon, if he isn't already." Hannah says as we walk towards the pokemon center.
"So, he's a trainer then?" I ask.
"Yep. He's a great trainer and I love his pokemon!" Hannah exclaims.
Wow! She's like obsessed with him. This guy must be very special! If Hannah likes him, then he must be a pretty cool person.
I open the door for the both of us and we pick up our pokemon from Nurse Joy.
Ellie leaps onto my shoulder with Dew cradled in her arms.
I feel a lot better! She tells me.
"That's great Ellie!" I say as I fix the ribbons that combines her long azure hair into a cute ponytail.
"That's so cute Rosie, the way that your pokemon have chains and stuff." Hannah exclaims.
"Thank you Hannah." I say as I scratch my head.
"How about we go to my hotel room and do some girly stuff, maybe you can stay over for the night and go to the ice and rock field from there." Hannah suggests.
I think about this for a moment.
"I would like that a lot! But we can get to my house much faster if we teleport there!" I tell her and release Sunrise.
"Hey cutie." Hannah says as she scratches behind his ear.
That feels good. He purrs.
"You really have a way with pokemon, don't you Hannah?" I ask her with a smile.
"It's just that I've been around them my whole life." Hannah admits.
"Oh really?" I ask.
"Yeah, I'm from a Mareep Farm." She says.
"That's cool, so I guess that you have a Mareep then?" I ask.
"Actually, I have an Ampharos, that guy helped me through the entire league!" She says with a giggle.
He must be really strong! Ellie says while she holds the sleepy Dew.
"He must be really strong!" I replicate.
"He's very strong, as is all of my pokemon." Hannah says with a nod.
At least she's not snobby about it; I can handle her confidence in her pokemon. Now I know of three of her pokemon, I wonder what are the others. I want to be prepared in case I have to battle against her!
"OK. Sunrise, teleport us to my bedroom!" I say as we latch on to him.
OK. He replies and a second later we're in my bed.
"Mom, I'm home!" I say as I rush to my closet so I can grab a bag.
Casey, Rika, CJ, and Skyler walk into my bedroom.
"Did you have a good time?" CJ asks.
"Yeah, it was all right." I say as I grab a pair of blue jeans and a white ringer shirt with the rings being a blue color that matches my jeans. Then I walk over to my drawers and grab some undies.
"Packed!" I say as I gather the rest of my stuff.
"Where are you going?" They all ask.
"Hannah and I are hanging out at her hotel room." I explain.
"Can we go?" They all ask.
"It's just a girl thing." Hannah steps in. I smile at her cleverness.
"So we can go?" Rika and Casey ask.
"Of course!" Hannah says.
CJ and Skyler group together with their arms crossed.
"We're having a boy's night out then!" Skyler says with a smile.
"OK...." I say as I zip my backpack.
About ten minutes later we're all ready and I've told my mother my plans. My parents agree and we all walk down the stairs to the car, because Sunrise can't teleport there because he's never been there. That's a disadvantage in this ability.
I'm behind the wheel of course and we all listen to some great music on the radio.
"Lucky that my breasts are small and humble, so you don't confuse them, with mountains!" Rika sings along with Shakira, the Latin sensation who has the hit "whenever, wherever".
We all erupt in laughter at that phrase. Rika even had clutched herself when she said that, it was hilarious!
After we drive down the still well-lit Main Street we make a left on Holden Boulevard, the place where mostly all the major and minor hotels and motels are located.
After we drive down this long road we make a right and turn into the parking lot of the Grapevine Hotel that actually has a climbing grapevine covering the right side of the building. It adds onto the appeal of the small establishment.
We hop out the car and I make sure to lock all the doors. We don't want anyone stealing our precious car.
"Show us the way." Rika tells Hannah.
We walk up a flight of stairs and go down two rooms with green and violet doors. Then we wait outside while Hannah opens the door and we all work through.
Hannah flickers on the light and we scan the room. There is an attractive oak queen-sized bed with a nightstand with an elegant lap on top of it. There is a small couch with a table that has magazines neatly laid out on the tabletop. Off to the right is a bathroom with a shower and a small closet off to the left. A little ways from the foot of the bed is a nineteen-inch television.
"Wow!" I say after I conclude my observation of the room.
"Is it expensive?" Casey asks.
"Well, I got a discount on it because I'm a pokemon trainer. It's about fifty dollars every night, luckily I also had a part-time job and I have a lot of money in the bank." Hannah tells us.
"I see." Casey says, satisfied with the answer.
"So, what do you want to do?" Hannah asks.
"Facials?" Casey volunteers.
We all look at each other, as if we're mentally discussing it.
Hannah's face sparks up. "Yeah!" She exclaims.
***
"Ooh, we look like zombies or something." Rika says after I finish rubbing the green avocado mask on her face.
Hannah and Casey giggle silently.
I reach for a handful of butter popcorn that I used Crimson to pop for us. Having pokemon could be very useful. I left Ellie and Dew at home though.
"Boom, boom." The doorknocker knocks.
"I wonder who that could be!" Hannah says as she rises from her station on the floor next to the couch. Casey's sitting on the floor next to her and Rika's next to me on.
We're all in out pajamas of course. I'm wearing that nightgown that has the lace on it, Casey's wearing a pair of green sweatpants and a halter top, Rika's in her pajama bottoms and a white tank top, and Hannah is in a pajama set with little teddy bears on them. You can obviously see our styles in the way that we sleep and crap.
Hannah opens the door and hugs the masculine figure in the doorway.
"How'd you find me?" She asks happily.
"I have my ways." The boy says.
"Come on in!" She says as she pulls the boy by the hand into the room and into the light.
His face immediately registers in my brain. It is none other than the Josh that plagued my high school years! The now good person that we saw on Starry Island!
"Josh!" I exclaim in a shocked tone.
"Rosie!" He exclaims in the same way.
A weird look passes over Hannah's face. She even twirls her orange hair around her finger.
"You two know each other?" She asks.
"Do we, I've known him for over five years!" I explain. Then I go into detail about our schooling, the way he used to be, how he is now, and how we met back on Starry Island at his grandfather's farm.
"I had no idea!" Hannah says with a laugh.
"So what's going on around here?" Josh asks after we introduce him to Casey.
"It's a girl's night out kind of thing." Rika says with a smile.
"Well, I guess that I'm not welcome." Josh says as he looks down to the ground.
Casey and Rika link arms with him and Hannah and I stand in front of him.
"Let's strap him up and give him a facial!" Hannah says as Casey and Rika tie his arms together with one of the strings that normally go to a robe.
"No!" He exclaims but it's too late. After we rinse his face we put on the green mask.
We all start laughing. We keep on kidding around and crap for twenty minutes while our masks dry.
I pull off Casey's mask, she pulls off my mask, and then I pull of Rika's mask. Hannah pulls off Josh's mask and he takes off hers. But for some reason, a magnetic force pulls them together and they start to kiss each other.
"Hey!" I say as I pull them away from each other, but only in a joking way.
"This is why we call these things a girl's night out. Sorry Hon, but you have to go." Rika says with a mock serious tone.
"Oh my." Hannah says as she blushes deeply.
"They're right I'll see you tomorrow okay?" Josh says as he gets up to leave.
"Okay." Hannah says as she gives him a hug.
"Goodnight Josh!" We say but we exaggerate the good night and make our voices rise when we do so.
He just nods his head in disapproval and with a laugh; he walks out the door and makes a right. He must have a room here too. I'm pretty sure that the two lovebirds will meet secretly during the night.
"So how long have you been going out?" Casey asks.
"About four months I think." Hannah says with stars in her eyes.
Rika yawns and then we all yawn.
"Let's go to sleep and tomorrow we can do hair early in the morning." Hannah suggests as she stretches her arms out.
We all nod in approval.
"I got the couch!" I yell and I dive onto the couch.
"I got the bed with Hannah!" Rika says.
"I'll make a pallet on the floor." Casey says.
"I'll take the floor!" I say quickly.
"No, it's fine." Casey says ruefully.
"I'll take the floor okay?" I ask in a stern voice.
Casey finally gives in and takes a blanket. Then she lays herself down on the couch.
I take a few blankets and arrange them into a fluffy pallet and I garb a pillow. Then I get under the covers and stare at the ceiling.
I decide to start a conversation.
"So, you like Skyler a lot don't you?" I ask her.
She turns her head towards me. "I love him!" She says.
"That's wonderful!"
***
"Hannah's doing great!" I say to my parents as we watch the last round of her match.
"You're right! That Bulbasaur sure is something!" Mom says.
"Baba!" Julian shrieks.
"Oh Julian." Mom says with a small smile on her face.
"Use a tackle attack!" Hannah directs her Bulbasaur.
Bulbasaur charges at the Chickorita and then she slams into it with her shoulder.
Chickorita screams out in pain.
"Use a razor leaf attack!" Freddie, the other trainer yells.
"Use your razor leaf attack also!" Hannah says.
Both pokemon fire the leaves at each other but they cancel each other out.
"Good, use a vine whip attack!" Hannah says.
Bulbasaur extends her vines and wraps them around Chickorita's body. Then she lifts Chickorita off of her feet and slams her to the ground, over and over again.
"Return Chikorita!" Freddie says once his last pokemon had been defeated.
"Hannah doe it again! Tomorrow, her battle will take place at Milky Stadium!" The spectator exclaims. The crowd erupts into a frenzy of clapping and cheering. I even let out a few cheers.
"Next up is Rosie Fierra in the ice and rock field!" The speakers blare.
"I guess that's me!" I say and I rush out of the grass and water field and to the ice and rock field.
***
"We are now welcoming Jack Fisher and Rosie Fierra to the ice and rock field!" The spectator announces.
The crowd goes wild; this is very inspirational. The crowd plays a big part in a trainer's decisions and the way they order their pokemon.
Rika, CJ, and I walk to our appropriate places and sand there until the referee tells us to begin.
"Begin!" He says and raises his orange flag.
"I'll start things off with you Lizzie!" I say as I toss the ball into the air, thus releasing my strong Nidoqueen. I can feel my hair bounce as I did this, I guess that Casey went a little overboard on the gel on my curly ponytail.
"A Nidoqueen eh? Go Swinub!" Jack says and a small little piggy appears on the ice.
I shiver from the coldness of the arena and put some lip balm onto my lips so that they'll stay lubricated.
*!*
A generated icy breeze blows through the field. My teeth start to chatter and I shake from the coldness.
"Use some powder snow!" Jack says.
Swinub releases a ton of snow at me and in the blink of an eye I'm frozen solid.
"Look's like this round is over!" The spectator says.
Never! I scream and with all my might I break through the thin ice covering.
"Great job Lizzie, now use a mega punch!" Rosie says with a smile.
I rush at the tiny pig and swing my glowing fist.
"Endure it!" Jack yells.
I connect with the pig and it flies into the air. But it stands firm once it lands on the ground.
"Hmm..." Rosie says as she clutches her chin.
"It seems as if Rosie does not know what to do. This little pig sure has a lot of guts!"
"Use your fury swipes!" Rosie says.
I rush at the pig and rake my claws across its entire body but it still seems to be unaffected. He must still be using endure, and quite a strong one it is.
"Ha ha, my Swinub is too tough for your Nidoqueen." Jack says.
"Make her jump!" Rika says.
"Okay, jump Lizzie!" She says.
I jump towards Swinub and crush the ground with my large weight. The ice starts to crack and Swinub sinks to the ground.
"You have it covered from now on." Rika says with a satisfied smile on her face.
"What could the coach possibly mean?" The spectator wonders.
"Use a tail whip!" Rosie says.
"Endure it!" Jack says.
I swing my massive tail at the pig and it connects with him. Swinub flies into the air but still unaffected. Out of nowhere I release blue thunder at the pig and it is frozen instantly.
Swinub falls to the ground and when he lands, the ice shatters and swirls appear in his eyes.
"Swinub is unable to battle! The victory goes to Rosie!" The referee says.
I see now! The purpose of cracking the ice was to keep the pokemon in place and off its guard so I can attack it!
"You may have beaten Swinub but you won't beat this pokemon! Go Lapras!" Jack says.
"A nice choice made on Jack's behalf."
"Tackle it!" Rosie says.
I run at the Lapras but for some reason the ice seemed more slippery than usual and I slide on the ice.
"No!" Rosie cries.
"Water gun attack now!" Jack yells.
Lapras lets out a bellow and then he releases massive amounts of water at me. The water causes me to slide across the ice and I hit a massive rock very hard. My body screams in pain.
"You did a great job, return!" Rosie says and she returns me to my crystal ball.
***
"Which pokemon will Rosie choose next?" The spectator asks.
Hmm... I'll save Crimson for last but for now I'll use...
"Sunrise!" I exclaim and my snow white Espeon materializes onto the battle ground.
"Be careful Sunrise, it's tough." I say.
*!*
I will. I reply and leap onto a rock. I don't plan on moving too much right now for the time being.
"Use an ice beam attack!" Jack says.
Lapras opens her large mouth and a sparkling ball of blue lightning appears in it. A long stream is shot towards me.
"Use a disable attack." Rosie says.
In the blink of an eye the ice beam is stopped right before my eyes. It starts to form a large spear until the dumb Lapras remembers that her effort is futile.
Once she stops, I raise the spear of ice above my head and break them into pieces. Then, with my mental powers, I form the ice into nice compact ice balls.
"Now!" Rosie tells me.
I hurl the balls at her one by one, each ball hitting her continuously. With one particularly large sphere, I raise it high above the stadium. Then I send the ball at the Lapras and it socks her right in the muzzle.
Lapras screams in pain.
"Use a water gun attack." Jack says.
"Jump out the way and use confusion!" Rosie says.
I leap out the way.
What trick should I play on the pokemon today? I know! I'll make it freeze itself!
With a grin I use all of my mental powers and force the Lapras to use it's ice beam attack.
"What's happening?" Jack cries.
Unfortunately this Lapras is a powerful one. I use even more power into my mental attack and the Lapras frees herself.
I smile to myself.
"Lapras is unable to battle." The ref says.
"Ugh! Go Jynx!" Jack exclaims.
A Jynx is released from the crystal ball.
"Use future sight!" Rosie cries.
My eyes glow a green color and then suddenly it stops.
"Use an ice punch!"
Jynx rushes at me and clobbers me in the jaw with her frozen fists. I get lifted into the air by the force of the blow and by the time I land on the ground, I'm already frozen solid.
DARN!
***
I take out Crimson's crystal ball and stare at it adoringly. I can feel the warmth of it and it heats my entire body.
"I choose you Crimson!"
*!*
"Use a blizzard attack Jynx!" Jack cries.
A forceful wind blows of my body, it's filled with chucks of ice and rocks. The attack blows me away and I crash into a rock.
You think that's enough to keep me down? I provoke the Jynx.
You're bluffing! That's one of my most powerful attacks. Jynx cries.
"Tackle it!" Rosie directs me.
I run along the ice and dive into the stout Jynx. I ram her stomach with my chest and she skids across the ice.
"Good job Crimson." Rosie says.
Thank you! I reply.
"Use an ice punch!" Jack says.
Jynx launches a full out assault on me. Her jabs are quick and fierce but I escape them by leaping over them. This makes her angry and the angrier she gets, the more careless she gets, thus making room for a mistake. I ram her in the chest once again with my head.
She clutches it in pain.
When I look over her head I can see a green orb of energy making it's way towards the field. Yea! I guess that this was Rosie's plan! I'm lad that it's working so well!
"Use a fire blast!" Rosie says.
Jack does a double take when he sees the ball of energy.
"Watch out!" He cries.
But it happens to be too late. Jynx is a goner! I shoot out a Japanese symbol shaped fireball at the pokemon. At the same times as the fire blast hits her, so does the future sigh attack.
She let's out an earth shatter scream as she faints.
"Oh no. Let's go home." Jack says as he leaves the stadium.
Rosie stares at the saddened boy as he leaves the ice and rock field. Gee, he sure is sad about losing!
I leap into Rosie's arms.
We did it Rosie! I cry as I snuggle up to her, thus warming her cool body.
"No Crimson, you did it." She reminds me.
I guess I did! I say with a laugh.
Then we all laugh, happily.
