Keat, who was taking a sip of coffee, spit it out abruptly. Everyone in the café stared. He growled and wiped his mouth with his shirt sleeve and everyone forgot about it. "We're…" he began, ignoring the huge puddle of liquid on the table, "we're not with that family anymore. And they ain't been new since 1987. But even if they was, it's not any o' your business, beings that you wasn't even with 'um." Stacy took a sip of her juice and pointed to the mess. "I know," Keat said in a surprisingly nice tone, "I'll get it later." Ash cleared his throat and Keat's head snapped to face Ash. "Don' interrupt me when I'm talkin' to mah baby sister." he said coldly. Ash shivered and nodded. He wondered if his father was like that, too.
When they left the café, they headed off to do a little exploring in the new town. Keat was not in a good mood. He had to pay extra for the little 'accident'. "So," Misty began, "where should we go?" Keat, trying to be nice the his brother's friends, pointed towards a huge building on a hill at the northern side of the city. If Brock had eyes that we could see, they would've widened as far as they could, but since he didn't, his eyebrows just went really far up on his face.
"That right there's the marketplace."
"Whoa…"
"Yeah. Pretty big, huh?"
"No kidding…"
"Wanna go see it?"
"Sure!"
So the five of them ran off to the huge marketplace. It had at least 100 shops and Misty wanted to go to every single one. When she told them, Keat laughed. "Sorry, doll," he said, "but there's approximately 1,567 stores here. It'd take us at least 3 days to see 'um all."
"Then we'll stay!"
"But Misty-"
"Shut up, Ash!"
"But-"
"THE LADY SAID SHUT UP!!"
Keat smacked Ash in the face causing him to fall on his back. Misty looked at Keat and blinked. "Thanks." she said warily. He grinned and winked at her. Brock helped Ash up and Stacy hid behind Keat's leg, giving Ash a dirty look. Brock looked at Keat, disgusted.
"He's your brother. He's also a human being. Treat him like one!"
"I'll do what I want with my younger brother!"
"He can do what he wants!"
"Not with me around, he can't!"
"Yes, he can!"
"Don' toy wit me, boy."
"I'm not picking a fight, I'm just stating the truth!"
"It's a lie!"
"No!"
Keat ran to Brock and lunged at him, knocking him to the ground. Brock threw him off and scrambled to stand. Stacy ran to Keat and tried to help him up. The boy got up himself and picked Stacy up. "Don't touch me again, city boy," he said to Brock, "or I swear, I'll kill you."
