Here's the next chapter for you all! Thanks for the reviews!
"That was close, I can't believe our good luck!" said Amy who sat down on a chair catching her breath. Amy, Rose, and Isaac just caught their boat that was on its way to Cinnabar Island. It was a cruise ship as a matter of fact.
"I don't know about your good luck because your luck almost got us to miss our ride," said Isaac with arms crossed.
"Yeah it was Isaac's luck that even got us on this romantic cruise ship!" said Rose and started turning crimson.
Quick Flashback:
"Amy, you are an idiot! You can't win things like a drawing or a lottery!" said Isaac after Amy failed to win any prize after 10 tries.
"I like to see you spin this thing and have a gold ball come out!" said Amy angrily.
"I don't want to," said Isaac,
"I'll try!" said Rose and tried it…she got nothing but a constellation prize like Amy did which are 5 soap bars. Since Amy tried 10 times, she has 50 new soaps to use when she showers.
"Oh well…better luck next time," said Rose with a sigh,
"The chances of wining that thing, is slim to none," said Isaac ready to leave.
"But I have to win! I mean, I would just love to win a vacation there! The most romantic place you can go! A perfect honeymoon! When I get married, I'm going to have a lovely dress and my honeymoon will be right there!" Amy pointed to the poster of this paradise-looking beach.
"I know what you mean! When I get married, it's going to be with a perfect man! And then, we'll have the most romantic honeymoon! And the cake! It'll be the biggest cake ever!" Rose almost squealed. Then both girls screamed at their fantasies. Isaac sweat drops,
"Oh brother…Girls, they're all the same," Isaac mumbled to himself to avoid being pounded by them.
"Then again, they should be. A woman can only do a woman's job, and a man can only do a man's job," said Isaac and puts money on the counter and grips the handle and starts spinning it then stops…a brownish ball came rolling out.
"We have a winner! Bronze Ball! The third prize goes to this lucky young man!" said the guy in charge of this ringing a bell loudly.
"WHAT?" Amy and Rose exclaimed.
"PIKA?"
"Uh…okay, what's my prize again?" Isaac asked quite surprised himself.
"You win a trip of four to Cinnabar Island on this amazing cruise ship!" the man in charge explained pointing to the third prize poster and handed Isaac an envelope.
Present:
"Hey, whatever happened to the fourth ticket?" Rose asked,
"I gave it to some random guy…except it turned out it wasn't random," said Isaac with shifty eyes.
"What do you mean?" Amy asked.
"Heh! What luck! I end up on the same cruise ship as Amy!"
Amy looked behind Isaac,
"IVAN!" she exclaimed.
"Yeah, I kind of forgot who this guy was when I saw him the first time but it couldn't hurt could it?" Isaac asked.
"Yes it could!" Amy shouted.
"Is that a way to say hello to your old friend?" Ivan asked and smirked.
"Oh…he's just as handsome as he was when I last some him," said Rose holding her face with her hands.
"Oh! You're Rose! (Pushes Amy aside) It's so good to see a beautiful face like yours again!" said Ivan taking Rose's hands.
"It's nice to see you again too!" said Rose…okay, near squealed.
Amy stood up rubbing her head,
"That jerk! Hey! I'm talking to you!" Amy shouted but he already took Rose away.
"Hey! Where do you think you're going, Rose?" Isaac shouted after her.
"Ivan! I'm talking to you!" Amy shouted.
"Traitor…" Isaac mumbled, which was directed to Rose.
"…" the two stood there a while and then finally walked away from their spot.
"I can't believe it! Just what do they see in each other?" Amy asked out loud.
"Who knows," said Isaac and 'humphs'.
"Yeah!" Amy agreed and the two kept walking until they saw a crowd of people. Amy and Isaac, being curious, pushed their way through the crowd. They got there just in time to see a Radicate faint. It got beaten by a Clefable. The owner of the Clefable was a young man. He was wearing a yellow jacket over his shirt with long pants and a cap worn backwards. Behind him were two adults. With them were…eggs?
"Good job, Clef!" the boy complimented. He was in his teenager years and his light violet hair made him attract the ladies.
"Cool! A trainer!" said Amy excitedly.
"Pth, it's just a trainer," said Isaac.
"Just a trainer? What are you a tough guy?"
Isaac looked at the boy with the Clefable that spoke to him,
"Maybe, I happen to be the gym leader of the Cerulean City gym," said Isaac proudly.
"Oh really? Then what are you doing all the way out here? You can't be a gym leader if you're not at your gym," said the boy.
"…Oh yeah? I'm just as tough as one!" Isaac argued.
"Well, okay, if I win, you have to give me a badge!"
"Uh…if I had them with me I would," said Isaac.
"Alright, I'll battle you for kicks!" said the boy.
"Hey! I wanted to battle him!" Amy complained.
"Oh, who's that?" the boy asked pointing at Amy,
"My cousin," Isaac answered,
"Is she a gym leader too?"
"No, just a trainer,"
"Hm…she's cute," said the boy and Amy's face turns into a tomato.
"Dude, she's 10 years old! And what are you? 15?" asked Isaac a bit disgusted.
"Wow, she looks older than 10. Oh well, there's always the next girl. And I'm 13 almost 14 thank you very much and my name is Tristan not 'Dude,'" said Tristan and recalled his Clefable. The two got into position for their battle.
"One Poke'mon each," said Tristan,
"No problem," Isaac replied.
"I choose, Magmar!"
"And I choose Psyduck!"
"Why did Tristan choose a fire type when he knew that Isaac is a water gym leader?" Amy asked herself.
"Go!" Flamethrower!"
"Use Water Gun!"
The attacks made steam,
"Too bad! Now Hydro Pump!"
"Smokescreen!"
"Okay, trainers like these, battle with tactics. So I have to be on my guard," Isaac thought and waited patiently.
"Confuse Ray!" Tristan shouted.
"Hurry! Use Hydro Pump that way!" Isaac shouted pointing to his left.
Isaac wasn't sure if his attack hit but his Psyduck was definitely confused. The smokescreen cleared and Magmar looked like it did take the hit.
"Magmar! Hang in there! Use Fire Blast!"
"Psyduck! Snap out of it!" said Isaac frustrated already. Psyduck took the hit and was blown back.
"Psyduck! Come on! You can do it! Use Psychic attack!"
"Psy…duck?"
"Argh! Psyduck! Okay, calm down…Psychic attack!"
"Fire Blast again!"
"Psy! Psy!" The Psychic attack hit first and knocks Magmar back.
"Alright! Go for a Surf attack!"
A huge wave came and crashed down. Magmar was knocked out.
"Alright! Victory goes to me!" said Isaac with a peace sign. Then Psyduck started glowing.
"Psyduck?" Isaac asked, then the glowing stopped.
"Gold-duck!"
"YES! All that training finally paid off! I got a Golduck!" Isaac cheered actually jumping up and down.
"ISAAC!!" Isaac stopped when he heard Amy's angry voice. He looked over at her, she was soaking wet…along with a lot of other people that were watching the battle.
"Oops! Sorry!" he said and sweatdrops.
"AH! Isaac! You idiot!"
Isaac looked over on the other side where Rose is upset and Ivan trying to calm her down.
"Oh…whoops. S-Sorry Rose!"
"Sorry? Isaac! I love this outfit you know!" Rose pouted angrily.
"I said I'm sorry!" Isaac repeated with a little more force in the voice.
"Hmph! I guess I have to shop some more," said Rose and walked off.
"H-Hey! Rose! Wait! Rose I said I was sorry!" Isaac called after her but she didn't listen. Ivan walked up to him,
"You know, if you want to win the girl's heart, the one that you're in love with, you should try impressing her without getting her mad. She really liked that surf attack until she got wet," said Ivan in a teasing way. Isaac turned crimson,
"WHAT? WHO SAID ANYTHING ABOUT ME BEING IN LOVE?" he shouted and Amy rushed over,
"Isaac's in love? Really? With who?" Amy asked wanting this info.
"No one!! I don't love anyone! And certainly not Rose!" Isaac replied angrily.
"Oh! It's Rose!"
"I just said that it wasn't Rose!"
"Isaac likes Rose! Isaac likes Rose!" Amy sang.
"AMY KETCHUM! Shut up now!"
"Um Isaac?" Isaac was just about to pound Amy when Tristan tapped him on the shoulder,
"Yeah?" Isaac asked forgetting Amy.
"Here, your prize for beating me," said Tristan and handed Isaac an egg…
"This is my prize? I get a prize for beating you?" Isaac asked looking at the white egg with red and blue triangles on it.
"Yeah, my parents are breeders, we go around and give eggs out to trainers that are strong enough to beat me," Tristan explained.
"Oh, okay," said Isaac not sure that he wanted to win that battle now.
"You better take good care of that egg!" said Tristan seriously,
"Okay, sure," said Isaac.
"Good! See you around!" said Tristan left.
"…Amy! I don't know the first thing about taking care of an egg!" said Isaac panicking.
"I don't know either!" said Amy, even she's worried.
"Rose! That's it! Rose! Her father's a breeder too! Rose has got to pick up some skills on how to take care of an egg!" said Isaac and started looking around frantically for a sign of Rose. Ivan seemed to have slithered away when he was arguing with Amy.
"Gold? Duck?"
"Oh yeah, Golduck, here, return," Isaac called back his Poke'mon and then he and Amy went to a table to see what to do with the egg.
"So…what kind of Poke'mon do you think is in it?" Amy asked smiling and excited that they have an egg with them now.
"I don't care because I don't want anything to do with taking care of babies!" said Isaac a little too loudly since Amy's only a seat over.
"Sh! Quiet! You're going to disturb the egg!" Amy hushed and started rubbing the egg.
"You can have it," Isaac offered.
"But Isaac, I didn't win this egg. But I'll take care of the egg for you until it hatches. I'm sure Rose will help too," said Amy and starts rocking the egg.
"Amy…that thing isn't even born yet, quit treating it like it is," said Isaac shaking his head.
"But Isaac, the egg needs love too. Besides, I'm trying to keep it warm so it can hatch," Amy explained.
"EEK! It's an egg! Let me see!" Rose exclaimed snatching the egg out of Amy's arms.
"Hey! Be more gentle!" Amy shot up from her seat and snatched the egg back.
"You should talk…" said Ivan but he was ignored when the egg went between Amy and Rose. Then the egg seems to have disappeared during the battle of the egg between Amy and Rose. The girls panicked.
"Calm down! I have it!" Isaac shouted holding the egg.
"It's okay!" the girls sighed in relief.
"Yeah, it wasn't going to be if you two continue shaking the poor egg up," said Isaac.
"Wow! Isaac is a mother hen!" said Amy laughing.
"Shut up!"
--
That night, Isaac awoke from his bed. Since he's the only guy between him, Amy, and Rose, he gets his own room on this cruise ship. There's no way he's sharing the same room with Ivan. Just the thought of that got some of Isaac's blood boiling. What's funny to him is that Amy and Ivan are too busy with their own businesses to argue with each other. Amy complains about Ivan so much that when they actually meet up with each other, they don't fight…not as much as expected at least.
"Maybe it's because Ivan spends his time flirting with Rose…Gr, isn't he a year younger?" Isaac thought angrily. He looked over at the table in his room where that egg lays wrapped up in a blanket. Isaac sighed and picked up the egg and brought it with him back to the bed.
"You must be the reason why I couldn't get to sleep," said Isaac to the egg. Then he slipped under and the covers and made the egg extra warm when he placed his blanket over it as well.
"Maybe Cinnabar Island will help you hatch faster, it's warmer there…" said Isaac slowly and quietly as his eye lids slowly drooped into a close.
Next: The gang arrives in Cinnabar Island! The only problem is, they can't locate the gym. Now Amy and Ivan are yet in another competition: Who can find the gym and win the Volcano badge first!
