Making the rounds around her gym, surprisedly no new challengers for today or the other day before that. It was weird to say the least but it didn't bother her at all. It made Fantina want to participate in a contest.
No distractions at all either!
Was what she thought before the heavy rain came pouring down, along with the thunderstorms. Looking out the window, she sighed. "Such a dark day today…No this won't do!" She decided, stomping her feet down. "Today, I will participate in a contest and-" She stopped herself and looked over to Chongyun.
'The boy from another world…Maybe he decides a break every once a while.' She said to herself, walking over to the bed and grabbing hold of the blanket.
"Chongyun, monsieur, it's time to rise out of bed!"
Fantina lifted the single blanket from the bed, tossing it aside. Chongyun groaned, opening up his eyes. He sat up on the bed, looking at Fantina.
"Hm Fantina?…What time is it?" He asked her, sighing.
"It's 12." She said, seeing the distressed look on his face.
"It seems I overslept…" He mumbled to himself. "That isn't like me at all…" He frowned,
"But! I do say it was good!" She interrupted his train of thoughts.
"What do you mean it was good? I overslept?!" He yelled out.
"There is a very terrible thunderstorm just now! But after it passes, I say yours truly gives you a tour around Hearthome City! And most importantly-" She explained to him.
"But it isn't raining, Miss Fantina." He interrupted her, pointing over to the window. "I say the rain has passed now, but I'd rather not tour around the city. It isn't my style." He said, getting up from the bed.
"WHA-WHAT?!" She cried out. "Why don't you be given a tour by yours truly, Chongyun?! Tell me! TELL ME CHONGYUN!" She shouted out loud, in such hysterical.
Chongyun simply stared at her. "…I wish to get stronger is all. Maybe you can give me a tour other day. It seems like today is too sunny for me as well." He pointed back at the window, the sunny beginning to come out.
Fantina raised her eyebrows at that. "You…don't like the sun?" She asked him.
"No. I don't. I'm an exorcist, I work with getting rid of spirits." He explained to her, sighing.
"Spirits? Exorcist?! Young man, how old are you and where are your parents?!" She immediately demanded from him, putting her hands on his shoulders. It would have been perfect if she had not forgotten his parents weren't here. Because they weren't from this world…
"Miss Fantina, it's just my family business." He explained in such short time.
"That's such blasphemy!" She shouted out, throwing her arms into the air. "An exorcist for someone your age! That's such bizarre and a strange concept to me!" She exclaimed.
Chongyun couldn't put this into words, he was practically speechless now. He opened his mouth to say something, but closed it back up. "There's nothing I can say. I rather not get into a argument." He said, giving up. "Where did you put my clothes at?" He asked, looking around the room.
"Oh I put them in the closet, they're washed and clean now." She answered, sighing. Chongyun went over to the closet, opening it and immediately spotting his clothes. He grabbed it and went to the bathroom to change. Fantina flopped on the bed, with a heavy sigh. "The boy is uninterested in anything at all! How could I do for him!" She asked herself, with another heavy sigh.
But she remembered a place. A place that a exorcist could possibly like. A place filled with ghosts…
The bathroom door unlocked, Chongyun walking out with his standard clothes. Fantina got up from the bed and dashed over to him. "Oh monsieur Chongyun! I may know a place you would like yourself!" She said, with confidence.
"A place?" He said.
"Hmph yes! It's a place that has to be respected however. So come along with me with your best manners." She said, crossing his arms together on her chest. "If. If you're willing to come with me." She added on, seeing his assumed face.
"…This isn't a trick, is it?" He asked her, curiosity getting the best of him.
"No obviously not." She said, not lying one bit.
"Okay. Where is this place exactly?"
"TADA!"
Fantina shouted out, stopping in front of a tower. Chongyun carried an umbrella with him, preventing the heat from touching or warming him up. He looked at the tower up and down, in such awe.
"What did you call this place again?" He looked at her.
"Why it's the Lost Tower! It's the resting grounds for deceased Pokemon here in Sinnoh. I thought you may like it seeing as you're an exorcist." She explained to the boy.
"Hm. I see, may we enter inside?" He asked once more, his umbrella moving a tad bit.
"Of course. Just be careful, wild Pokemon may be there." She nodded to him, taking the lead.
"I'lll be careful." He agreed, following behind her.
Inside the building was a completely different style. The sun shined through the few windows provided. And it seems like Fantina knew her way around here, as she walked with no difficulties. He couldn't manage someone like her being in a place like this before.
Going up the stairs, they reached floor two. It was more scattered and laid out the gravestones, with a variety of names on them. "I…don't sense anything." He mumbled to himself.
"Hm? What was that, darling?" She turned back to him, stopping her movements.
"Nothing ma'ma. Let's keep going." He quickly said, leaving the woman baffled for a minute there. But nevertheless, she kept leading. When they reached the stairs, she stopped again.
"Hmph…You know…Everytime I visited this place, I would encounter at least a Gastly! But none today…It's weird to say the least." She said, turning to him.
"…I may know what's the problem." He sighed, realizing why there wasn't a single sight of Pokemon here.
"Why?" She asked him.
"It's because of my Yang energy. It must be driving away all of the wild Pokemon here." He said, deadpanned.
"Wha…Yang energy? Like positive energy?!" She asked him, confused.
"Yes. Miss Fantina, I have never seen a spirit before nor have I exorcised one before. My positive energy terrifies them all." He said, being completely honest. "I should have said this before we entered, it's my mistake ma'ma-"
"MISDREAVUS!"
An angry roar shook the tower, than stopped shortly afterwards. Fantina looked at the stairs. "That came from the top floor." She said, frowning.
"We need to go and investigate whatever that was!" He yelled out, summoning his claymore from out of nowhere. She nodded at him, taking his hand.
"Come on, young Chongyun!" She shouted out, dashing ahead. He followed her, still holding onto his weapon. The two immediately went up to the fifth and last floor.
There, a Misdreavus was thrashing around, hitting the walls and floor. It looked up at the two, with angry in its eyes. "MISDRE!" It cried out, vanishing from sight.
"Keep an eye out. Ghost Pokemon can vanish and reappear." She said, Chongyun staying close to her.
"Yes ma'ma. And it's…" He gazed off, looking all around the place. Than he saw it. A small smudge of purple air near the gravestones. "THERE!" He shouted out, using his Cyro to let out a few icicles.
The Pokemon reappeared, getting hit by his attack. He ran to the Pokemon, claymore in hand and gently slashed at it. "DRE!" It shouted out, falling down in exhaustion and pain.
Fantina came over to the Misdreavus, before gently scooping it up in her arms. "Say…How did you know where it was? And one hit too, that's impressive." She asked him.
"I saw an purple outline. I assumed it was the Pokemon so I attacked." He said to her. The Misdreavus looked at him, before spitting out a Shadow Ball directly at his face. "GAH!" He let out, falling straight to the ground.
"Oh you mischievous Pokemon…" Fantina said, giving the small Pokemon a death glare.
"Fantina. Let go of it."
She looked to see Chongyun with a death gaze, staring at the Misdreavus. He pointed his claymore at the Pokemon, directly. But she had another idea, an brilliant idea. She took out a Pokeball and made the Misdreavus push the button on accident.
"What…? Miss Fantina, what did you-" He asked her, walking up to her in confusion.
"Here!" She gave him the Pokeball.
"…What." He looked at her again.
"The Misdreavus is yours! I think a Pokemon like that will help you with its behavior and type." She explained to him. He took a double look at the Pokeball and her.
"..."
He fainted.
"CHONGYUN!"
