Krysta was extatic. Every few seconds she checked her belt to make sure that, yes indeed, she had a pokemon. She spent the rest of the afternoon and evening getting her hip pouch ready. For someone who was aspiring to become a Gym Leader, she was surprisingly unorganized.
"MOM! Do you know where I left my Antidote?! Nevermind!"
Echo clung to her ceiling fan, chittering away happily. He started flapping his wings hard. Krysta looked up at him.
"What are you doing Echo?"
"Zu! Bat bat batzu! Zuuuu-bat?" his chitters were higher pitched than most other Zubats, but then again, Echo was only 2/3rds the size of other Zubats.
The fan started rotating slowly. Krysta didn't notice that Echo had created his own little merry-go-round out of her fan.

"Tomorrow, young lady. It breaks my heart to see you go, but I suppose that you'd sneak out if I forbid you to go. At least spend one more night here?"
Krysta agreed and spent the rest of the night celebrating with her mother. It was too bad that her father and brother couldn't be here, but they were gym leaders in other towns and had to stay there so that others on the road to Championship could reach their journey's end.

After she had her plan drawn out, she reached over and grabbed her notebook. In it were her sketches, her designs, and her journal. She opened it up and looked at the Gym Badge she had drawn. It was a dark blue cloud with a silver, jagged lightning bolt descending from it. She called it the Storm Badge. Someday, young trainers would have to face her for the honor of wearing such a medal. She hoped...
Tsuni's Commentary: Sorry this chapters shorter. Simon has been telling me WHAT to write, but has not really given me any inspiration until, oh, say the chapter in Goldenrod City. My Crystal Gamepack is also failing me because my Ruby Gamepack seduced me.... Sigh it's a hard life, being a pokemon freak....
