That's right, they're with Avegaille today for a vacation! So, here's chapter 15!

Chapter 15 - Dig Your Way Out Of This!

Last time we left, Brendan had been dared to challenge the gym leader of Mauville City first. The other three trainers were outside the gym, trying to think up of a schedule that they'll do while Brendan challenged the gym.

"Okay, this time, this is it!" May exclaimed as she turned to Avegaille and Phil. She placed her hands in her hips. "We'll all train at Route 117 while Brendan is in that gym there."

" Sounds good to me, " Charlie agreed as he released his trainer from his arms and went near May. " At least a better way to get away from Brendan. "

Phil chuckled as Avegaille lifted up her head and looked at Charlie. May wasn't sure about what Avegaille's Pokémon really feels, but she knew that Charlie is holding a grudge against Brendan. May took out Terra's Pokéball and pushed the middle button of the ball to let Terra out.

" So, what's up? " Terra asked as she looked at her trainer. " Anything new happening around here? "

" Well, no, but we're going to do some more training, " Charlie answered out for Terra.

" Yeah, speaking of which, about the training thing, I don't think so, " Terra started as she looked at her trainer. She paced in front of her trainer back and forth.

"Well, why not?" May asked concernedly as she stopped her Pokémon from pacing in front of her. She paused for a while as she started to think. "No, wait, I think we've already trained, right?"

" Ha! I thought you couldn't figure it out! " Terra exclaimed out as she faced the other direction.

"Well, I'm just going to train my other Pokémon then," Avegaille said as she took out Ziggy's Pokéball and let him out. Then, she took out Gil's and Tike's ball and also let them out.

Ziggy looked around as he saw his new surroundings. He quickly jumped into Charlie's arms as Charlie tried to catch him. Tike was very scared as he quickly approached Charlie and looked at him with his innocent puppy dog eyes. And Gil was flying around him, also getting dizzy and falling down, landing on Ziggy. Charlie knew what he had to do. He had to look out for his team mates, no matter how annoying or naïve they are.

"Let's go then," May called off as she quickly walked with Terra out of Mauville to Route 117.

Phil, Avegaille and all of Avegaille's Pokémon followed May until they got to Route 117. Avegaille found a grassy area in which is a great place for her to train. But before she started her training, she took out two small TM boxes, in which both moves are different. Avegaille went near Tike, but Tike was hiding behind Charlie.

"What's wrong?" Avegaille asked softly as she tried to get near Tike.

" You're not going to hurt me, are you? " Tike asked fearfully.

"No, of course not," Avegaille replied as she sat down on the ground. Charlie went near her and held Tike in his arms. She looked at Tike, who was in Charlie's arms. "Now, who gave you that ridiculous idea?"

Ziggy and Gil gathered to the spot where their trainer is to listen to Tike's story. Avegaille was listening attentively as Tike came down from Charlie and began telling his reason.

" Well, before you caught me, I have a family in which I was the youngest, " Tike started. " My mother thought it was time for us to be on our own. Then, my brothers told me how dangerous trainers are, on how they hurt us. So, I was really afraid and when I saw you and Ziggy, I thought you were going to... "

"No, I would never do that," Avegaille cut off as she took Tike into her arms and hugged him. "Never would I do that to any Pokémon... "

" Don't worry, if I see a trainer hurting his own Pokémon, I'll teach him a lesson, " Charlie told Tike. He went closet to his trainer to pet Tike.

" Oh, I've never had such a nice owner before... " Tike was starting to cry of joyful tears.

In a few distances, May and Phil are watching Avegaille talk to her Pokémon. Both of them were wondering how she could befriend any type of Pokémon. Avegaille finally taught to Tike the move Thunderbolt while Dig for Ziggy. Then, when May and Phil were about to say something, a trainer who wore a Pokémon Breeder Uniform approached Avegaille as Avegaille stood up.

"I'm challenging you to a 4-on-4 battle!" the trainer called out. "You, against my Pokémon!" He took out all of his Pokéball and send out all of his Pokémon.

"Okay, I had enough with these 4-on-4 battle!" May exclaimed, getting irritated of the new battling strategy. "I know there's going to be a 6-on-6 battle happening here soon!"

" All right, a new battle! " Charlie exclaimed out as he went in position.

"Well, can't abide with the rules." Avegaille shrugged as she called out her other Pokémon.

The Pokémon Breeder had a finely balanced team, good enough to beat Avegaille. He had a Machop, a Magnemite, a Geodude and a Marill. But Avegaille had just made a plan to beat all of his Pokémon with just one move of each of her Pokémon. May and Phil were watching the battle tenaciously.

"All right, Ziggy, use Surf!" Avegaille called out. Then, she turned to Tike. "Tike, use Thunderbolt!"

Ziggy started to create huge waves as Tike started to charge up and released a large amount of electricity. Ziggy's Surf had crashed down to all of the four Pokémon and Tike's Thunderbolt was even more effective, since the water was conducting the electricity, frying all the other Pokémon. But still, this hasn't fainted all of them.

"Machop, Use Vital Throw on the Zigzagoon! Magnemite, use Thundershock on the Wingull! Geodude, use Mud Shot on the Electrike and Marill, use Water Gun on the Charmeleon!" the breeder called out to all of his Pokémon.

Ziggy started to dig underground without her trainer telling him so as Charlie and Gil dodged the attacks of the opponent. Tike then ran off as Geodude was beginning to use Mud Shot. All of the attacks of the opponents missed as Charlie began to create a fiery star wheel while Gil started to create huge gusts of winds even without their trainer telling them to do so. The two Pokémon combined their attacks as it hit all the four opposing Pokémon, making the three faint and only one Pokémon remaining. And that Pokémon is...

"Magnemite, use-"

But before the breeder could continue, Ziggy dug his way out from underground and attacked the Magnemite, making him faint. Finally, the breeder sent back all of his Pokémon and went near Avegaille.

"I have never seen someone who could actually win this battle without even commanding a single thing to her Pokémon," the breeder told to Avegaille. "I guess maybe it's just that your Pokémon knows what they're doing. I have to go now. Or maybe you just can't control them!" After that, he walked off, laughing so hard that Avegaille couldn't describe how annoying or insulting it is.

" You can control us, right? " Ziggy asked softly as he approached Avegaille.

"No, he's right, I can't even tell to you all what attacks are supposed to be used," Avegaille said as she sighed and picked up Ziggy.

Avegaille was surprised when Ziggy started to glow. The bright light blinded her when she finally closed her eyes. The next thing she knew, she was holding a Pokémon that was a bit heavier. She opened her eyes and now saw a Linoone in her arms.

"Well, at least you've got what you've wanted," May remarked as she went near Avegaille.

"I think she's talking about your Ziggy evolving," Phil added as he came closer to the two girl trainers.

Charlie, Gil and Tike went near their trainer as Avegaille placed Ziggy on the ground to join the group. Then, Avegaille walked off a little, facing the grassy patch of the field. She felt the ceasing wind coming through her face as she sighed and looked at the ground. She was starting to think of something else again. May and Phil were watching her and starting to wonder to themselves again.

That day, it was starting to get dark as Avegaille decided it was time to head back to Mauville City to rent out rooms in the Pokémon Center to stay in for the night. Phil and May agreed and both of them know it wasn't the right time to bring up the subject in their minds.

Later, Brendan entered the Pokémon Center as he saw the three trainers sitting together at a table, eating snacks. All of their Pokémon are also eating snacks at another table. Brendan approached the three trainers to see if they were still mad at him.

"No, I'm not mad at you, but Charlie is," Avegaille said to Brendan as she stood up. "I don't know what you said to him, but I know he's holding a grudge against you."

"Well, how do you convince a stubborn Pokémon such as your Charmeleon to forgive me?" Brendan pleaded to Avegaille, knowing that if he doesn't do something about it, his other friends would ignore him.

"Hmm, why don't you try digging your way out of this one?" Avegaille asked Brendan as she approached her Pokémon.

"What in the world is that suppose to mean!" Brendan exclaimed out, getting irritated.

What? What's wrong now? Why are you looking at me like that? Why do I keep asking these questions again… uh, anyway, end of chapter 15, as always… Maybe I should just continue editing the other chapters…
