The Nido King
Chapter 5
"WHAT!" An angry and confused Pluscuam asked Rovert after his last comment.
"Yep, the officers flew him off to his sapphire house in Hoenn." Rovert repeated calmly as if it was no big deal.
"But why?" Pluscuam asked. "What benefit would that be in helping him?" Pluscuam added to his last question.
"Well," Rovert started. "the officers called Dr. Proctor. They heard about him and his human hospital. They thought he would know how to help Frank, and he did. He said how a lot of grass pokemon could hold the key to speeding up the recovery of Frank's injuries. The officers asked Frank if he had any grass pokemon. Even though Frank was seriously injured, he struggled and managed to say just two words…'Sapphire pokemon.'"
"Sapphire pokemon? What does that even mean?" A confused Pluscuam asked.
"Well, after awhile of trying to decode this message, they found out that it must mean that there are many grass pokemon at Frank's sapphire house in Hoenn." Rovert looked at Pluscuam as if it was a simple answer.
"WAIT?" Pluscuam started. "How do you know all of this?" Pluscuam asked Rovert.
"Well, I helped them decode the message. For I know all about Frank and his pokemon experience." Rovert boasted.
The three of you walk outside, still sunny out. Pluscuam acts as the leader and you and Rovert follow him. He leads you two toward Viridian city, for one of you must get a pokemon that knows fly so you can get to Hoenn fast. Rovert runs in front of Pluscuam.
"I KNOW JUST THE POKEMON WHO CAN HELP US!" Rovert screams at you. He runs up to the center and rushes inside. You and Pluscuam decide to wait outside thinking that Rovert will be out any second. In a mater of seconds, Rovert appears in front of you two holding a black and yellow ball up. "FALCON!" He said as if answering an unspoken question.
In a land far away from Frank's quaint little blue house, stood a similar house upon a hill, looking over Littleroot Town. Even though the houses were similar, there was a MAJOR difference. The difference was that one was blue inside and out and one was sapphire inside and out. Inside the quaint little sapphire house, there were many grass pokemon roaming free. In one of the house's corners was a bed. Like everything else in the house, besides the pokemon, the bed was colored sapphire. Upon the bed's sheets was Frank. Frank was now decked out in sapphire clothes, which replaced his blue ones. Frank lay awake on the bed because he couldn't sleep. Dr. Proctor informed the officers, who informed Frank, that he must stay in his sapphire house with all his grass pokemon roaming free. Frank didn't think it would be too bad, but he was wrong. It was impossible for him to really rest in a house filled with pollen-producing creatures. He knew the pollen was healing his injuries, but the pollen also was bothering his allergies.
"Uh," Frank started in a stuffy nose sort of way. "I love my pokemon, but they are bothering my allergies."
Frank walked towards the window where you can see all of Littleroot Town. As he was walking, he peered at the clock. It now read 2:00 pm. He was so incredibly tired, but he couldn't sleep. He made it to the window and peered outside. It was starting to get cloudy and was going to rain. His eyes were heavy and his vision was blurred.
"AH!" Frank shouted quickly. "What was that?" He asked himself a minute or two later. Frank got startled by what he thought was a ghost pokemon.
In a matter of seconds, Tony and Maria appeared next to Frank. They came to help him because they thought that his scream was for help. They both look at Frank with a look of worry. Frank turns to them.
"Uh," Frank started again in his stuffy nose sort of way. "don't worry you two. I know that your just trying to help me, but I just thought I saw a ghost pokemon outside. Nothing to…" Frank stops what he's saying and notices that his nidos have vanished. He then peers back outside the window to see the two looking for the creature who startled Frank. After they search for about a minute, it starts to rain. As the raindrops fall, they hit the two nidos, who are hurt badly by water. The two scurry back into the house and cower together in the corner.
Frank heads over to a closet. He opens it up. Inside are shelves filled with towels. Frank takes two beach towels and heads over to his nidos. He quickly dries them off with the towels. The two nidos stand up and give Frank a hug.
"Thanks Tony and Maria. You two rock." Frank turns to his bed only to be shoved towards it by the two. They then lift up the covers, put Frank in the bed, and cover him up. The two now decide to go back into their balls. "Maybe that's another reason I love nidos." Frank says to himself. "They are very nurturing."
Rovert throws the black and yellow ball up into the air. The ball opens and a giant tan bird appears.
"This is Falcon, my pidgeot." Rovert says as Falcon hovers slightly above his head. "We can use Falcon to fly to Hoenn to get there fast." Falcon now descends towards you and Pluscuam. Rovert looks very eager to start the flight and hops right on Falcon first. Pluscuam gets on next, then you. You are a little timid about this idea, but the thought vanishes after the bird slowly rises.
Pluscuam looks a little worried now. "You two," He starts. "I'm not sure about this. Maybe we should use a pokemon to fly each of us to Hoenn, not just one for all of us." He finishes.
Rovert looks back at him. "NO!" He shouts at Pluscuam. Pluscuam gives Rovert a dirty look.
Falcon starts its path towards Hoenn. Towards the beginning of the flight Falcon goes slow, but as the flight progresses Falcon speeds up. Falcon flies above hills now that separate two different lands. As Falcon passes the hills, you point at the land below you. You see a few houses that are metallic below you in the new land and point at them.
"No," Pluscuam starts. "that is not Hoenn, that is New Bark Town. New Bark Town is part of Johto. And those houses down there," Pluscuam points to two silver houses, a gold house, and a crystal house. "are Frank's houses." Pluscuam finishes.
Soon, Falcon comes up to more hills at the edge of New Bark Town. These hills are also separating two different lands. You are now above another new land. Falcon starts to descend. Falcon now lands next to a house. This house is sapphire inside and out. You figure this is Frank's house and he's inside.
Pluscuam, Rovert, and you walk right inside. You see Frank sleeping and tucked into his sapphire colored bed, which is the same color as everything else in the house, except for the pokemon roaming free. As you head over towards Frank, a little creature runs at you. It had a green body with roses for hands. One rose was red and the other was blue.
"Ita! ROSELITA!" It screamed at you.
In a matter of seconds, two familiar figures come to your rescue again. It was Tony and Maria. The two nidos start growling at the little creature to communicate, and also, wake up Frank. Frank blinks his eyes as he lifts the covers off him and rises from the bed. He walks over to the arguing pokemon.
"Tony, Maria, stop fighting." He says to the nidos. He then turns to the little creature. "And you to…Maria." He says to the little creature. He then turns to Pluscuam, Rovert, and you. "It seems like my nidos and my roselia are very talkative today, eh? I see all of you came to keep me company for awhile here at my sapphire house. Like it?" Frank asks you. You nod.
After a minute of silence from the bickering pokemon, Tony, Maria, and Maria turn back to you.
"Ita! ROSELITA!" Maria screams at you.
"Nio! NIORE!" Tony screams at you.
"Nidu! NIDU!" Maria screams at you.
After the pokemon scream at you, you turn around. You feel as if there is a strange presence hovering behind you. You turn around to see your shadow. You feel relived that it is just your shadow. While you look at your shadow, it grows. It does not grow as if you are walking away, but as if it was becoming 3-D. It now takes on a different form. It seems to have a spiky look now and two hand shaped figures come out of its body. It's regular shadow color now drains from its body and is replaced with a purple color. It stretches its hands out wide and opens its mouth. A huge and long pink tongue gets flailed in your face. You quickly turn and run to cower in the corner. Rovert stands right in front of the creature now.
"You listen to me," Rovert starts to say to the creature. "I'll battle you." He finishes. He turns away from the creature so as his back is facing it. "Your such a waste of a ghost pokemon…HAUNTER!" Rovert finishes his statement with a grin.
Rovert turns to the pokemon once more. He reaches for the same ball as before. Before he releases the pokemon inside, the nidos stand in front of him.
"Huh?" He says to himself.
"I see now," Frank starts. "Tony and Maria wanted to protect us all from the evil presence watching over us. My roselia also wanted some of the action. As I'm not strong enough to guide my nidos in battle, will you do the honor Rovert?" Frank asks Rovert.
"Sure Frank!" Rovert says with a big smile. "Tony, your first! GO!"
Tony stomps his way to the front of the battle, glaring at the malicious pokemon opposing him.
Nio! NIORE!" He screams at the pokemon once more.
"Tony! LEER!" Rovert says. Tony does as told. A strange look was now in Tony's eyes. This look seemed to bother the haunter, as the haunter avoids eye contact. "Maria, your next! GO!" Rovert howls.
"Nidu nidu! NIDU NIDU!" Maria screams as she heads in front of Tony.
"Maria! ROCK TOMB!" Maria starts to concentrate. In a matter of seconds, a giant boulder materializes slightly above the haunter. After about a minute of hovering above, the rock falls on top of the haunter. "Good job." Rovert says.
Rovert and his friends won the battle. After about a minute, the giant boulder vanished. The group peered at the ground to see that haunter had vanished too.
"Could it of gotten away?" Rovert asks Frank.
"No," Frank starts. "there is no way an attack that powerful executed by a powerful pokemon couldn't of fainted a weakling pokemon like that." Frank finishes.
