Ch.4 What now?
Well as luck would have it that Shroomish didn't stop fallowing me throughout the whole day…every now and then it bit at the bottom of my pant legs but I could tell it didn't mean any harm. Actually its company made the rest of my work kind of interesting…after finishing my feeding rounds I decided to go ask my sister about the Shroomish.
She was hosing down a bunch of Bulbasarus along with a very large Venusar. The Venusar was my sisters very first Pokemon…one of the pokemon that she fought her last battles with…as big as it was it was quite playful as it bounced around trying to catch some water on its large leaves.
"hay sis" I called out. She turned and smiled. "what's going on?…oh look a Shroom…its Wight…why is it Wight!" she exclaimed in excitement and confusion.
"that's what I was wondering, it has been fallowing me all day…" I said looking down at it as it was nibbling on my pants again. "know who's it is?" I asked trying to shake off the now firmly stuck Shroomish.
"umm well lets go inside and check the lists of occupants…I don't remember getting a Wight Shroomish…" she said turning off the hose. "don't worry V, I'll be back soon…watch over the others ok?" my sister said to her Venusar. It nodded in agreement as we walked back to the house.
"well it doesn't look like we have this Shroomish on files here…maybe it wondered into the ranch?" asked my sister turning in her chair and looking at me and the Shroomish who was now in my lap.
"so what do we do then?" I asked as the Shroomish looked up at me.
"hum…well-"
suddenly the phone rang.
"one second . Got to get this" said my sister as she reached over and grabbed the phone.
"hello?…oh yes hello miss. Myers…oh is that so?…well sure…today?…no problem, your Illumise is in good health and you can pick it up today…oh no thank you…ok bye"
"who was that?" I asked my sister as she once again faced me.
"it was Miss Myers from across town. She wanted to take back her Illumise today. Its her daughters 11th birthday and she wanted to give her it as a present." said my sister who quickly returned to the computer to bring up the pokemon's files.
I picked up the Shroomish and placed it on the floor as I stood up to watch my sister look through the computer.
"she's had it here for a while…I wonder if its going to be ok with leaving here…Jet. Can you go get the Illumise from our Bug Barn?" my sister said as she through me a pokeball.
"are you serious?" I asked in complete shock and fear as I caught the pokeball. "I've never caught a pokemon before!"
"ah…ok look. Because we don't have that Shroomish on our files why don't you catch it first? You might as well…your like what,13 now? You should have started your pokemon adventure back when you where 10" she said kind of nagging on the only thing I really hated…pokemon training.
"but sis…I don't want to end up like-"
"you wont…its ok to be scared but you need to learn to trust in your own abilities…and your pokemon will help you learn that." my sister explained.
Now looking down at the Shroomish at my feet I wondered if it was a good idea…true I never felt this comfortable with a pokemon…"ok…"
"that's the spirit! Well try hitting Shroomish with the pokeball I gave you." my sister said as she stood up from her chair.
"ok…" I said taking a breath and looking at the Shroomish. The Shroomish smiled at me. Inside I felt quite confident.
"here we go…" I said as I tossed the ball at the Shroomish. It hit and the pokemon was zapped in to the ball…it wiggled a bit…and stopped.
"I did it…hay sis I did it!" I exclaimed.
"ha ha! that's great! Come here" she said and gave me a big hug. "I'm really proud of you…" she said now holding me away from her and looking at me.
"so what now?" I asked feeling strange with a pokeball in my hand…this almost didn't feel right…
"well you need to go get that Illumise. Here you go." she said as she gave me another pokeball.
"oh and it wont be easy…you got to battle it so it gets weak so we can take it back." she said walking me towards the door.
"then what?" I asked, getting nervous as she lead me outside.
"then catch it like you did your new Shroomish." she said as she closed the door and headed back into the house.
"ugh…might as well get this over with…"
