Maxie's Real Plan
Disclaimer: We own no Pokémon related characters. Edgar owns himself, I
own myself, and Lauren owns Karania. Okay? Okay.
Mal and Edgar had turned west in Mauville, on their way to Verdanturf Town.
"Grr...I hate Karania sometimes. Why does SHE always get everything?
She's a normal person just like-"
Edgar stopped Mal. "She is the Girl of Legend."
"I DON'T CARE!"
"..."
Karania wheeled up to Mal and Edgar, but didn't hear their conversation. "I think I might spend a little time here, see you in Verdanturf Town." She said, and turned around and into the forest.
Edgar and Mal made it into Veranturf Town within the next fifteen
minutes, and went into the contest hall.
"I'll enter the Smart contest," Edgar said.
"Me too!" Mal added.
The woman at the desk nodded. "Which Pokémon will you be using?"
"I'll use my Raichu." Mal said, pointing to the electric mouse behind
her.
"I guess I'll use...Leaf." Edgar said, and let the Poké Ball with his
Treeko drop to the ground.
"Please come this way," the woman said, and guided Edgar and Mal to the
hallway. Kyo and Raichu followed. Edgar carried leaf in his arms.
"Welcome to the annual Smart contest in Verdanturf Town! Our contestants
are..." The judge pointed to the four people on the stage. "Ricky and his
Seviper, Snakie!"
"Nice name..." Mal muttered.
"Shut up..." Edgar said, kicking Mal.
"Ow!"
The judge spoke up again. "Next, Edgar and his Treeko, Leaf! Then, Mal
and her Raichu, and finally, Dora with her Pikachu, Sparkle!"
The crowd clapped and cheered, Edgar's Treeko getting the most applause.
The judge put the four contestants in order, and the contest began.
"Sparkle, Thunderbolt!"
"Leaf, Mega Drain!"
"Raichu, Thunder!"
"Snakie, Poison Fang!"
The crowd cheered for Snakie the most, and the next round began.
"Leaf, Leaf Blade!
"Snakie, Poison Tail!
"Sparkle, Thunder!
"Raichu, Quick Attack!"
Edgar and Mal's Pokémon seemed to get the most applause. The next round
began.
The judge spoke up. "Halftime, now! Let's give it up for Snakie and
Ricky!"
The audience went wild.
"Mal and her Raichu!"
The audience clapped and cheered.
"Edgar and his Treecko, Leaf,"
The audience roared.
"And Dora and her pikachu, Sparkle!"
The audience cheered and clapped.
"Back to our contest, folks."
,
Karania rode her bike through the woods quickly, when her spoke got
caught in a root, and she fell over. She rubbed her shoulder, but then
went silent as she heard a familiar voice.
"So, where would Latios and Latias be?"
"I don't know. Latias was disguised as the girl before, but I guess that stopped."
"They could be anyone...how will we know?"
"I don't know, Lance!"
"We have to keep trying. Come on."
Lance and one of his friends left. Karania frowned.
"Huh..."
"Raichu, Rain Dance!"
Round four ended with Edgar getting more applause than ever.
The next round ended the same way, also.
"And our winners our...First place to Edgar and Leaf!" the judge handed
Edgar a bike voucher.
"Second place, Mal and Raichu!" the jedge handed Mal a bike voucher.
"Third, Dora and Sparkle!" the judge gave a ribbon to Dora.
"And Snakie and Ricky somehow ended up in last!" the judge gave a Poké
Block feeder to Ricky.
"That's all folks! Tah-tah!"
The contest ended in a roar of applause. Edgar and Mal jumped off of the
stage and ran throgh the crowd and out of the building.
"Imma get mine first!" Mal yelled.
"Not if I'm faster!" Edgar ran ahead of Mal.
The two arrived in Mauville City in about five minutes from all of their
running.
Rydel's eyes widened as he saw the two running towards his shop. "Oh,
dear."
"No! Me first! Me first!" Mal shoved Edgar out of the way, who shoved
back. Mal fell on her back outside of the doorway.
"AW, DAMN!" Mal shouted.
Edgar handed his bike voucher to Rydel, who took a polished blue bicycle
from the wall.
"Thanks!" He took it and ran out the door. Mal went in next, and handed
hers to Rydel.
"I'm sorry, we don't have any more bikes."
"...What...did...you...say..?"
"Sorry. All we have are skateboards and roller blades."
"Can I use the voucher for the blades?"
"Hm...I suppose." Rydel took some bright green roller blades from the
shelves and handed them to Mal.
"Woohoo!" Mal ran out the door.
