Chapter 19: Third Time's A Charm
Dustin, Tyson and Kamme tapped their feet in an uneven rhythm as they awaited on top of the Devon Building for the helicopter they were promised by Officer Jenny, who was nowhere in site.
The sky was painted a light blue with shades of white known as clouds, the sun peeped it's burning rays through the celestial clouds once and a while, bringing an intense heat to Mandarin Island.
"They better hurry up," Kamme threatened, she tapped her feet on the concrete ground as her eyes narrowed in anger within every passing second.
"I'm sure they're coming," Dustin replied with a smile hit on his face.
A Mandarin Island Police Officer walked from the building and on to the roof, he walked up to the trio with a strange look on his face. "Are you Dustin, Kamme and Tyson?"
"Yes," they all three replied.
"Officer Jenny has sent me to tell you your helicopter can not come because of motor problems," he drew a letter from his pocket, "But she has arranged for you three to take a boat around the remanding islands."
"Dude!" Dustin smiled.
"Sweet!" Tyson added.
"However," the officer continued, "Because of the arrest of Team Aqua and Magma all of our officers are needed, so therefore one of you three will have to pilot the boat. Do any of you three know how to drive one?"
Kamme and Dustin drew stares at each other, both dumbfounded with their mouths opened and sweat-drops rolling down their heads.
"..." Tyson slowly smiled, "I do!"
"Very well," the police drew a key from his other pocket, "Here is the key," he relinquished it to Tyson with a smile on his stern exterior. "Have fun, the boat is waiting at Mandarin Island dock, near the Pokemon Center."
-=-=-=-=-=-=-==-=-=-
Tyson inserted the key into the ignition into the blue-red boat; from behind the glass where the driver sat he saw Dustin and Kamme sitting on the deck of the boat. A smile drew on Tyson's tan face as he twisted the key, causing the boat to start up.
Dustin threw his right hand into the air with a V made with his two fingers, "DUDE!" he screamed in joy as the boat took off from the dock and into the blue ocean ahead.
"NEXT STOP!" Tyson roared over the boat's loud engine, "TROVITA ISLAND!"
The boat took off into the celestial sun stained ocean surface, leaving a white wake of powerful waves and loud noises behind the watercraft. Children gathered around the dock and waved off Dustin and the other two heroes as they flew out of Mandarin Island.
-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=
"We're here," Tyson, flashed his white teeth with a smile as he parked the boat in Trovita Island's dock. He put up the key in his pocket and walked off the boat, joining Dustin and Kamme, who were already standing on the dock and waiting.
"This place rocks!" Dustin smiled as he glanced over to the ocean; strangely he saw some surfers and some trainers with Water type Pokemon on the beaches. "No tourist! Just trainers and surfers!"
"There's tourist here," Kamme brought him back down to reality, "Just in the city, Trovita is famous for hosting big time surfers and Water type Pokemon trainers, but also for having tall buildings and famous shops."
"Well I'm heading for the gym!" Dustin pointed off into the city.
"I'll go surfing," Tyson sparked a thumb up sign and smiled with it. "There's a local renting agency," he looked back at Dustin, "Oh yeah, good luck, Rudy is a tough trainer and uses some good Pokemon."
"That doesn't tell him much," Kamme groaned, "All the Orange Island Gym Leaders are strong and use powerful Pokemon..."
"Hey Kamme!" Tyson put his face in Kamme's, "Put a surf board where your mouth is!"
"W-what?!" she jumped back and then shouted, "YOU'RE ON!"
"...Uh..." Dustin pushed his two index fingers together in confusion, "Does that mean I have to go to the gym alone?..."
"DEAL WITH IT!" Kamme roared in Dustin's face. She calmed back down and grinned, "You can handle it, don't worry your tough," she glanced over her shoulder at Tyson, "However Tyson is going down!"
Dustin fondled in his bag and drew his PokeGear, he turned it on and generated a map of Trovita Island, "Says it's close to the Pokemon Center," he concluded, "Well you two have fun..."
"Oh we will," Kamme sarcastically winked.
-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=
Dustin walked around the town some, after turning down some offers from some strangers and eating a pineapple smoothie he finally found the gym, a large building painted white with multiple windows and a navy colored shingled roof.
He drew out his hand and latched on tightly to the door knob, 'Only this gym and one more...' Dustin thought to himself with unease.
"HEY YOU!" a high-pitched voice called.
Dustin withdrew his hand and did a 360. His eyes meet with a red headed boy around his age, dressed rather up tight for a native islander. "Y-Yes?" he questioned the mysterious stranger.
"Were you –are you headed to the gym?" the boy quickly asked.
"-Uh yeah," he replied, "I'm trying to get my third Orange Island Badge....do you know the leader here?"
"Know him?" the red head laughed and then brought his right hand to his chest, flashing his very white teeth, "I am the leader! Name is Rudy!" he did a strange pose, "Leader of Trovita Island Gym!"
"Cool!" Dustin grinned plainly, "My name is Dustin! I uh- have two Orange Island Gym Badges!" he was rather speechless and didn't know how to do a fancy introduction as Rudy had just preformed.
"Before you battle me you must prove yourself!" Rudy enlarged a Pokeball from his belt, "Go Dustox!" from the white light cast a relatively moth like creature, which flapped its wings and buzzed loudly.
"What's the competition?" Dustin asked as people from the city gathered around the two boys.
"Something the kids on the streets call a OHKO!" Rudy smirked some, "Each of our Pokemon will use one move, whoever survives wins!"
"Fine!" Dustin enlarged his Ultraball, "Go Tyranitar!" he chunked the yellow/black ball and called out the Rock/Dark type Pokemon, who roared and scared a few local children watching the pre-match.
"Rudy is the man!" one kid called from the crowd.
"I'll go first! Try and survive!" Rudy grinned elegantly once again, "Dustox use Psybeam at maximum power!"
"Dus!" the Bug/Poison type flapped it's wings wild before firing off a rainbow colored beam, which hit Tyranitar in the stomach area, however the tyrant survived and kind of laughed within a roar at the bug's failed attempt.
"W-What?!" Rudy was in amazement. "No one has ever been that strong against Psybeam!"
"Awesome job dude!" Dustin ignored Rudy and congratulated Tyranitar, "Use Flamethrower! One hit and we win!"
"TY!" the massive beast threw back it's head and inhaled a furry of oxygen, "RAN!" he spun back his head and bellowed out a jet of red and orange flames, burning into the air and singeing the wings of Dustox, who fell to the ground with swirls for eyes.
"I-I guess you're good enough," Rudy slowly said after recollected his injured Pokemon.

The swell of a massive wave curved in quickly, but not fast enough as Kamme swiped in and out of the majestic and mysterious blue ocean on her pink rented surfboard, her face large with a smile as she came out of the wave and stopped in the water.
Tyson had his legs over the board, waiting quietly as Kamme paddled up to him. He couldn't keep his eyes off of Kamme, and he didn't know why. His heart started to bear faster and faster with every paddle Kamme made...
"Did you see that?" she smiled at the blue ocean, "That wave was awesome! Dude that felt so good!"
Tyson didn't reply, instead he brought his mysterious eyes and peered into Kamme's glimmering pupils, "I have a secret to tell you," he whispered and leaned in closer to Kamme.
"What is it?" she questioned and took a few inches in.
To Kamme's surprise Tyson laid a warm kiss from his lips onto Kamme's. To Tyson's surprise Kamme accept and returned a gentle kiss, both surfers' eyes closed and focused on each other as they're lips continued to touch.
"NOT ON THE BEACH!" one surfer cried from the ocean.
Tyson withdrew his lips and stared into Kamme's eyes, he never noticed how beautiful they were until recently, his heart continued to beat faster, he had never felt this emotion; it was more powerful than a battle! More intense than a huge tsunami!
Kamme's heart was still soaring in the sky above them as she recollected herself, with a quick swipe of her hand she wiped away the salt water in her mouth, she couldn't help but smile. "I guess you're not so soft..." she closed her eyes and smiled even larger than before.

Dustin and Rudy stood on each end of the battle arena, which was quiet normal and in a normal gym like area, with empty bleachers on both sides and a judge in the judge's box, however on random spots in the arena were large rocky spikes.
"We will now hold the battle!" the judge, a female announced, "Challenge Dustin versus Leader Rudy! Two Pokemon each and with no time limit!" she cut the still air with her hands, "BEGIN!"
'With this Pokemon and the spikes...' Rudy thought as he enlarged a Pokeball, 'I should have an instant win!' he chunked the ball, "Go Grumpig!"
Dustin stood in awe as the purple/black pig snarled in front of two large rocky spikes. He pulled out his dex and analyzed before choosing a Pokemon.
"Grumpig," Devon began, "The Manipulate Pokemon, Grumpig is a psychic Pokemon who likes to fool it's enemies and use tricks. Use extreme caution with battling a Grumpig, for it has an unbelievable intelligence."
"It's smart then?" Dustin said as he put up his dex and enlarged a Pokeball, "Well I'm going with brute this time! Go Umbreon!" he threw the ball and summoned out the Dark type Pokemon known as Umbreon.
"Grumpig use Psychic and throw a rock at Umbreon!" Rudy began.
"Grum! Grum! Pig!" Grumpig rubbed it's belly before using it's interior powers to lift up a rock spike with it's mind, "Pig!" with a mental command Grumpig slung the rock at Umbreon...
"Dodge with Faint Attack!" Dustin countered.
Within the nick of time Umbreon dissolved into the air and dodged the spike, which Grumpig gave up control of. Umbreon came back into sight after a few second, a determined look in his crimson colored eyes.
"Great job dude!" Dustin commented, "Now try and use a Take Down!"
"Bounce Grumpig!" Rudy came back swiftly.
Umbreon hurled himself at Grumpig, who bounced from the ground into the air with it's swirled tail. Grumpig landed a few feet ahead of Umbreon, who was panting hard from his long and failed attack.
"You can't hurt Grumpig by psychical attacks!" Rudy pointed at his Pokemon, "Now use Shock Wave!"
"Dodge with another Faint Attack!"
Grumpig charged up some electric currents in it's rubber like hide, firing off a jet of stored thunder energy, however Umbreon faded away and dodged the move. Umbreon then chirped as he returned into view.
'Think Dustin think...' he said to himself, 'Grumpig is using special moves and has total concentration...' he continued to analyze, 'but...' he got an idea.
"Enough playing!" Rudy started, "-
"Faint Attack and Tickle!" Dustin ordered before Rudy could finish his train of thought.
Umbreon faded away and quickly formed behind the pig. "Bre!" Umbreon brought his tail against Grumpig's back, gentle stroking the pig like Pokemon, causing Grumpig to chuckle loudly as Umbreon continued to play around with his tail.
"What in the world?!" Rudy gawked.
"Tickle caused Grumpig to loose concentration," Dustin explained, "Grumpig may be able to control, WHEN it has focus on the task at hand," he laughed some before continuing, "Now let's win it Umbreon! Use Headbutt!"
Umbreon turned his head at Grumpig's back while the Manipulate Pokemon continued to laugh hysterically. "Bre!" the Moonlight Pokemon thrust his head into the rubber back of Grumpig, causing the Psychic type to be flung into a near by rock spike.
"Great..." Rudy sighed as Grumpig slide down the rock with crossed out eyes.
"Grumpig is unable to continue!" the judge announced as Rudy withdrew his Pokemon in a red light from the Pokeball.
"I have to admit, you're good," Rudy said as he switched out Pokeballs, "But you're not going to beat this one!" he chunked the Pokeball and called out in his fast nature of talking, "Go Azumarill!"
"An Azumarill?" Dustin thought and then concluded, "Great job dude," he said to Umbreon as he withdrew him and switched out the Pokeball for the Luxuryball, "Go Bulbasaur!" from the white light merged the Seed Pokemon.
"Bubblebeam go!" Rudy commanded.
"Hide behind a rock!" Dustin countered.
"Azu!" the Aquarabbit Pokemon bellowed out multiple streams of see through bubbles, however Bulbasaur ran behind a spike and was shielded from the bubbles, which broke chunks into the other rocks after Azumarill stopped it's ray of attacks.
"Run up and use Rock Smash!" Rudy ordered.
Azumarill ran up to the rock Bulbasaur was hiding behind, with a quick thrust of the tail Azumarill smashed the rock into tiny crumbs of dirt and ash along with a few pellets of brown semi-rocks.
"Now an Ice Beam! Go!" Rudy shouted.
Azumarill hurled out a baby blue beam of froze H2O, landing near Bulbasaur's upper right leg and causing the Seed Pokemon's leg to become caged in a block of crystal like ice, leaving him clear for an attack from Azumarill.
"Now a Mega Punch!" Rudy smiled.
"Ril!" Azumarill slung it's fist into Bulbasaur's face, hitting and sending Bulbasaur flying across the field, along with some crushes of ice from the previous Ice Beam attack.
Dustin looked around for a solution as Bulbasaur skid across the open air, "Use Vine Whip on a rock!" he noted and pointed to a rocky spike, "Then come back and use Body Slam!"
"Bulb..." he heard and opened his eyes slowly, pulling out two green vines and hurling them at a rock. Bulbasaur latched onto the rock and slung all his weight to the left, causing him to hurl himself at Azumarill. "Saur!" he redrew the vines and smashed dead on into Azumarill's stomach, causing the Aquarabbit Pokemon to fall over with crossed out eyes.
"N-No way!" Rudy gasp. "Azumarill should have won!"
"Bulbasaur used the spikes for his advantage," Dustin began, "The rocks gave him an edge!" he winked and then congratulated Bulbasaur.
"Azumarill is knocked out!" the judge declared, "Challenger Dustin is the winner!"
"Thank you," Rudy said to Azumarill as he withdrew it and put away the Pokeball. Rudy then stepped out of his trainer's box and walked up to Dustin, with the badge held tightly in his palm.
"Dude!" Dustin smiled as Rudy opened his hand and revealed the spiky badge.
"You totally won this," Rudy complemented, "It's the Spike Shell Badge, proof of your victory,"
"Dude!" Dustin repeated and took the badge into his hands; "I won the third badge!" he smiled down at the badge, "The Spike Shell Badge!"
-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=
Tyson and Kamme both sat down into the sandy beach, toes buried deep into the sand as the big orange ball dipped down into the heavenly blue ocean ahead. The two looked at each other and smiled.
"Thank you for saving me...back at Mandarin Island," Kamme began and slowly slipped her hand under Tyson's.
"It was my honor," he replied as he felt the warmth of her flesh under his. "I'm glad we're finally open about this...I mean us..."
"Yes," she joyfully sighed. "But how will we tell Dustin?"
"I'm sure he can figure it out on his own," Tyson drew closer to Kamme.
"...I don't know...he's not the brightest crayon in the box," Kamme answered before being took in by Tyson's warm and inviting hug. She couldn't help but smile, she finally found her soft spot, and wasn't ashamed of it either!
DONE! Dustin got the third badge! And Tyson and Kamme! OMG! I might have to up the rating to PG or PG-13...but I hope not...lol. Anyways next chapter is the Shane special, and maybe a little romance –shrugs- well I'm out
