Chapter 8- Vs Starmie
"You have got to be kidding" said Red as he stood before a huge mansion that even put Professor Oaks estate to shame which sat on top of a hill which overlooked the whole of the beautiful Cerulean city, Red had walked through Cerulean in awe as Misty just smiled at being home, waterways ran throughout the city and beautiful ornate fountains were scattered around the city.
The doors to the mansion suddenly swing open and a row of beautiful women exited the building to welcome Misty. "Everyone this is Red…Red these are Jenny, Sarah, Maxine, Sally, Kaye, Amanda and Laura, they're some of the maids". The maids swept forward and took Red and Misty's bags and pokemon. "Thank you" said Misty to the maids before turning to the worried looking Red "their just going to heal your pokemon…don't worry, make yourself at home."
….
Red slowly walks down the hall looking at the paintings of Misty's ancestors and their pokemon which all happened to be water pokemon. Red took a left as he remembered the directions to the dinning room he was given. He opened the extravagant doors and was suddenly hit with a blast of classical music. He looked out at the party where women dressed in ball gowns and men in tuxedos swanked around making small talk, Red suddenly felt underdressed in his Jeans, cap and T-shirt.
"You look fine" said a voice from behind him, he turned to come face to face with Misty who was wearing an elegant dress and had put her hair down "Don't worry."
…
A few hours later the guests sat around the giant table being served their meals, Red was regaling the guests with his stories, "…So then Pika shocks the boulders which fall onto the Rockets and I grab Misty who was still…"
"You know it is rude to talk at a dinner table" said Misty who was slightly annoyed with Red's ego and the picture he was painting of her.
"Oh I'm sorry" said Red "Did I tell any of you about Misty and her Gyarados?"
Misty turned her head away and began to talk quietly to hide the emotion in her voice but loud enough so everyone could still hear her "Maybe we should get some sleep…we have a big day tomorrow."
"Why what happens tomorrow?" asked Red as his interest peaked.
"Tomorrow is when we start our special training" said Misty.
"What special training?" asked Red who had no idea he had volunteered for any special training.
"You were there…were no match for Team Rocket, if anyone is going to have a chance to stop them we have to train and hone our skills…especially if we run into that guy in the ninja scarf again" said Misty with an angry expression at Red's ignorance.
Red gets an arrogant expression on his face as he speaks "I don't need any training I believe in my strength" said Red cockily.
"You have no idea of the danger" yelled Misty as she stood up angrily.
"No you have no idea of my strength you would have if you didn't faint in Mount Moon" yelled Red back as he stood up.
"You…you…" began Misty as her eyes began to tear and she ran from the room.
…
"Maybe Jenny…or Sarah" thinks Red out loud as he lay on his bed that night staring at the ceiling. Saur and Pika looked at each other and shook their heads in disgust at red's ignorance of Misty's feelings, Poli pointed to a picture of Misty on the wall at which Red laughed and said "Me ask Misty out no way…she has way to many mood swings."
The windows of Red's room suddenly burst open as a tornado like gust of wind swept into the room hurling Red into the air, Saur grabbed him with a vine before anchoring Red and his other pokemon onto the door, the wind died as quickly as it began. Red Red freed himself from the vines and rushed to the window only to see a dark figure vanishing into the woods behind the mansion. Red turned to the devastation left in the room, the bed turned over, photos ripped from the walls, a scale lying on the floor. Red picked up the scale and looked at it carefully "Gyarados scale."
…
The next morning Red finishes his third bowl of porridge with a serious look on his face as he thought about the events of the previous night.
"Are you okay Red?" asked Sarah the maid as she took his bowl and gave him another.
"I'm fine, Don't worry" said Red with a smile "I'm going to show Misty how strong I am when I challenge the Cerulean City gym leader and let her watch."
The few maids in the room paused for a second before giggling a little and quickly rushing from the room, Red shook his head at the girls and started on his fourth bowl.
Misty enters the room a few minutes later in her denim shorts with her hair tied up again "I hear your going to challenge the Cerulean Gym leader…lets go now I'll take you to the gym" said Misty with a smile.
…
"This Gym is really out in the sticks" said Red as he and Misty still walked around the outskirts of Cerulean city to the gym.
"It's just here would you stop complaining and you cant beat the view from the to of the gym" said Misty with a smile as they came in view of the Gym. The gym looked like a fountain with water squirting out of the mouths of the giant water pokemon statues, the water fell into furloughs in the ground which then led to the canals and water ways that wind through Cerulean.
…
"…And through this final door is the battle arena" said Misty as she swung the door open into the swimming pool arena.
"I challenge the leader of this gym" said Red as he stepped over the doors threshold "He isn't here, where is he?"
"She's already here" said Misty in a hostile tone with a steely stare.
"Where?" asked Red confused as he scoured the room and the water with his eyes.
"You idiot…I am the Cerulean gym leader and I accept your challenge" said Misty with a sneer as she released Starmie "Watergun".
Red dove out of the way of Misty's attack and rolled to his feet "fight me" said Misty.
"No way…you're lying" said Red as he weighed up the information he had just been given.
"So you wont fight…It was me and Gyarados who attacked you last night…Now Fight!" screamed Misty as her eyes watered and her emotions flowed from her freely.
"Fine…go Saur" said Red as he released his pokemon onto one of the floating platforms in the pool, "Vine whip".
"Deflect it and attack with Bubble Beam" ordered Misty who was now freely crying, Starmie launched it's attack deflecting the vines and striking Saur.
"When did you get so strong and competent?" asked Red as he watched his Saur being pounded with the attack.
Misty's Voice cracked as she replied to Red "I wish you would understand why we need special training. I lack the ability to function and pull off effective attacks in high stress and very intense battles like the one in Mount Moon" said Misty who wiped her tears before continuing to talk "you are too confident in your own abilities while really you have no idea of true power or battling strategies. If we don't take this seriously and help each other we will never survive in battle against our enemies."
"Saur return" said Red as he recalled his pokemon and looked at Misty "I had no idea…when do we start?"
…
Over the next week Red and Misty train everyday, Misty learns how to deal with pressure and command pokemon effectively while she teaches Red about true power and companionship with pokemon and the different types of pokemon, their strengths and weaknesses and different strategies. Every morning they eat breakfast together, every afternoon they eat lunch and lie in the sun talking and every evening they eat dinner before they sit at night and talk.
…
"Its been a really fun week" said Misty with a smile as she hugged Red "…oh and it really helped me with my training" said Misty with a blush.
"Yeah me too" said Red with a smile "Now I can really become the best trainer in the world." Red and Misty hugged once again before the broke smiled at each other and Red began to walk along the road away from Cerulean City.
"Why are you letting him go after only a week?" said one of Misty's maids as she placed her hand on Misty's shoulder.
"We've learnt all the skills each other has to offer" said Misty as she stared at Red leaving "The rest is down to our own training."
"That's not what I meant and you know it" said the maid as she giggled at the blushing Misty and left her to watch Red.
"I wonder when I'll meet him next" thinks Misty as she watches him vanish into a row of trees.
…
Through the trees beams of light shine through down on Red causing the two badges on his chest to glisten in the suns rays, Red looks down at the Boulder Badge and the Cascade Badge and smiles as he continues his path to the pokemon league.
To Be Continued…
Next Time…Who is this mysterious talking pokemon and what does he have to do with the pokemon genius Bill.
