Well, it's been 9 days. Not such a great way to say I was running low and had a lot of crap to do.
Enjoy!
CHAPTER THREE:
After an easy night and a rough evening, the morning came by and spraying cold wind on everything. It was a peaceful morning without any kind of disturbance, except for the path where the sounds of rocks were heard smashing, some cursing, and a little dust cloud.
There, it was Yugo and Reeka training away, trying to improve her skills at the karate chop. Ok, not much progress as the stone that Reeka was trying to crack in half was doing succeeding better than her. Reeka had a wounded hand that Yugo said will build up as she kept hitting the rock.
After a bit, Yugo then went to make breakfast… which was warming up two big egg sandwiches. As they ate breakfast, Reeka asked, "Why do you only have sandwiches?"
Yugo answered, "Because it was quick, easy, and I can throw whatever the hell I want on them."
"Yeah, but it gets kinda old."
"Well, if you wanna go starve until we run out, by all means, but you're gonna train whether you like it or not; full or not."
Reeka turned away and finished her sandwich in annoyance. After they were both finished, they went back to training and worked on Reeka's aura sphere. Ok, granted it was pretty weak, but…
Out of a bush came out a Ratatta, running towards the backpack. Yugo screamed, "Reeka! Take out the Rattata!"
Reeka sat the rat running about and used her new sphere…
It missed, then she did another one, it missed, and finally she got pissed at it and just charged at it. She used the karate chop and knocked it out in one swoop. Yugo nodded, "Good, it's working."
Reeka annoyingly said, "It's just a stupid Rattata."
"I know, but if you're move, at least your first one, is working, then who gives a shit on what you tried to cut in half."
"Yeah, but I wanna take on something giant!"
"Maybe once you're a Lucario, can master a few moves, mega evolve, and can actually kick some ass. That little fight was your first victory, but don't expect it to happen every time."
Reeka rolled her eyes and walked back to the tent, except Yugo told her, "Hold on, that's coming down and then we're moving to another area around… maybe thirty feet from here."
Reeka whined, "Why do we have to move?"
"Because I want to get closer to the next town instead of sitting in this area."
After the conversation, Yugo took the tent down and continued his way for around thirty feet, then set it up. Reeka whined again as he reset the tent, "We didn't even go that far and this is going to get us closer?"
Yugo told her, "Look, I'm going to be travelling the whole damn region so please just go with it."
"Didn't you say the gyms were at Luminose city?"
"Yeah, so?"
"Why do you need to travel around the whole region?"
At that moment Yugo knew, he looked like a jackass. He then said, "Oh, uh, y-yeah… hmm, I guess I didn't think of that."
Well, besides the stupidity, they got back to training and found that a days' worth of food was stolen by another Rattata. Yugo was having half a minute to complain as Reeka sat there with her usual look.
The training they did revolved now on Reeka's special attacks more than her physical. Even though she got the basic karate chop, she needed to use the basic aura sphere because what aura Pokémon can't learn aura moves? Her moves were attempted on a couple of trees, breaking off some branches, and wound up with a branch crashing on the tent.
Yugo sighed and fixed it up beside the road instead of under a tree and prompted, "Alright, let's do this again."
Reeka back sassed, "And maybe a branch will hit you in the head and knock you out."
"Oh shut it and hit the tree."
She stuck her tongue out and turned back to the tree, taking it out with a medium sized aura ball. Yugo was pretty impressed, "You couldn't make a decent one… now you can…"
"It's the only move I can sort of do *dumbass*."
He heard the insult and countered, "And I can do an ember and set your ass on fire. Now, let's get this finished."
And so they finished up the training for the midday and had lunch. Lunch was… well sandwiches. Reeka wasn't enjoying the cold cuts on the sandwich, complaining how they felt like slimy pieces of paper. Yugo told her to shut up and eat it, but that ended up with the sandwich going into his face.
Lunch now ruined, Yugo threw the remains of her sandwich and the rest of his sandwich at her. He sighed heavily as the Riolu wiped the food off her face and threw it into the forest. They continued their training with a few more shots, breaking off several branches and one "accidentally" hitting Yugo.
By 2:30, Yugo told Reeka, "Ok, you know what, fuck you. I have other things to do than this shit. We just made up last night and now we're looking like we are just forgetting everything we've done."
Reeka sighed and told him, "Well, you'd think…"
A bush rustled. The two stopped and wondered what the being was, then Yugo stepped forward and asked, "Who's there?"
No answer. He asked again, pulling out a gun, "I said… who's…"
A blade attached to a chain came out and almost went into Yugo's head, but the instant fright made Yugo bend back and hold the blade with psychic. He almost thought he just shit himself as the blade stopped. He dropped the gun, hands up, "O-ok, very sorry. Please, come out… I won't harm you."
Out came a foot, black in a boot, then a leg, still in black clothes, and then a coat, still black. What came out made Yugo raise an eyebrow while Reeka was a bit confused. The young man, blonde hair, looking about seventeen, and was holding two bayonets with a metal chain to them. Yugo asked, "Who… are you?"
The man muttered, "I am Judas Anderson. Who are you?"
"I'm Yugokil Blazik. Where the hell did you come from?"
"I'm from Unova."
"You don't sound like it."
Judas said, "W-well, it's from my father, he was a country called Ireland."
"Uh… that's not here…"
"I know, he said he was taken from his earth and brought to my earth… and I kinda got sent to yours… eh, not to great."
Yugo asked, "So… why are you here?"
"Well… I'd rather not say."
"Huh, well…"
Judas stopped, "Hold on… this might sound a little unusual but… are you one of those trainers that everyone keeps trying to persuade with garbage?"
"Uh, more like guilt tripped with useless crap from the crowd."
"Ok, and I assume that's yer…"
"My Riolu… who's a little bitch by the way."
Reeka kicked him in the ankle, making Yugo bend down. Judas told her, "Um, you do release that bitch is another for female canine… right?"
Reeka snapped, "What kind of idiot would make a word like that?"
Yugo told her, "Reeka, it's not worth it."
She kicked him again as he then used the pained leg and sideswiped her. Judas asked, "Looks like you need some help."
"Definite… would you like to come along?"
Judas pointed to himself, "Me? Well…"
"Oh come on, you probably know how to discipline Pokémon… right?"
"Yes… to a degree."
"Then you can come along."
Judas rubbed the back of his head, "Well… I'm not normal."
"Neither am I."
Judas asked again, "And how so?"
"For starters, I'm not even… half human."
"Oh? What are ye?"
"I'm 25%. Yeah, 25. I take it you're only half?"
"How did you…"
"Your tail."
Judas turned around and saw a leafy looking tail coming out as he tucked it away sheepishly. Yugo said, "You're part Sceptile."
Judas nodded, "Yes, and yer a Zoroark and Blaziken."
"With Gardevoir, don't forget."
"Well, besides that, why should I still join you?"
Yugo really needed someone else to drag along, so he had to get an idea. Reeka walked up and asked, "How well are you at training?"
Judas shrugged, "I could do some attacks, why?"
Reeka got an idea to get rid of Yugo, "How about you come along and train me since this dick can't."
Yugo got where she was going, not exactly in her direction though, and agreed, "Sounds good."
Judas sighed, "I don't really know. On the condition I have complete…"
"Access to everything we have? Of course."
Judas agreed to it, "Then I'll help you with your trainin'.
Reeka was a bit sneaky in her attempts to get rid of Yugo and his annoyance. However, her triumph went south immediately as the day continued on in backtalk, fighting, and little productive work. Judas was starting to regret it as this was waaaaay too much for him to handle.
In the evening, Reeka and Yugo were tired out while Judas put away his weapons and took Yugo's spare bag, falling asleep a second later. Yugo asked Reeka, "Is this going to be everyday?"
Reeka asked, "What?"
"Fighting? And not the normal kind, I mean this arguing shit."
She shrugged, "Well… it's… it's… hard to explain."
Yugo sighed, then Reeka snapped, "Look, I don't wanna be this little trainer's toy. I wanna do things like on TV."
Yugo snapped himself, "You want a fucking perfect example, my parents. My mother and father took a year to learn the basics and then as the years went by they got better and better and better. What they show on TV isn't fake, well depends what it is, but those Pokémon you see fight took years to fight, if not decades, and they didn't exactly do it by wishing for it. If you want to be on those levels, you gotta work for it."
Reeka crossed her arms and went into the bag, not feeling in the mood to continue. Judas, now awake from the excitement, told Yugo, "You two either need to get a better course than this, or pay me money because this is pretty insane."
Yugo rolled his eyes, "Oh shit, my fault man, I got stuck with a Riolu who backtalk's and it's insane because of that? I'm going to bed."
"Good, and don't wake up until the morning comes."
Yugo got into the sleeping bag and fell asleep as Reeka grabbed his unintentionally in her sleep. Yugo figured she liked him, but also hated him. He shook his head at trying to solve what went through that Riolu's head and went to sleep.
(In Italy's lab)
Frank was looking over current requests on the whole tournament for next year. 64 contestants was still a lot to have in one tournament and 128 was downright ridiculous. As he looked through it, Midori came through the door and asked, "Frank?"
Frank looked behind and said, "Yes dear?"
"I'm not old you know."
"I know, it's not bad."
Midori shook her head, but kept the smile, "Um, what exactly do you plan to do with that tournament because if you only have Edward fighting…"
"Well, that was one of the problems I found so I decided to have him with me… but that's once I got through you, Bender, Heleva, and so. The problem right now is what do I do with the ridiculous amount of 64 contestants?"
"I thought it was 128 or something?"
"It was, but since they don't have an official total and I can still change it on them, I've decided that maybe 64 is a better total as long as I can still have my ass squeezed in and I can get at least one of those fucking criminals in there."
Midori asked, "Why one of the criminals?"
"Because it's that or they work in the lab and that'll be the end of this place by a long shot. Besides, I got a solid A on this lab and, if I lose it to some shittier guy like Oak, then I'll nuke whatever bastard gets in the way of my success."
His wife crossed her arms as Frank corrected, "Ok, it's just one normal bomb, not a nuke."
Midori corrected for real, "You mean the fact that you'll kill someone who gets min your way?"
"Ok, ok, that's pushing it. But you kinda get my point, right?"
"Uh, I can read your head… without your hat."
Frank cringed as he forgot the hat. Midori smiled, "I know where you're going, but I want you to make sure you don't throw our family into a huge war."
Frank looked at her with a "serious" look, "Do I look like Nicholas the second here?"
"No, but if you had a world war happen, I think you'd make a handsome one."
She left the room as Frank shrugged and went back to his papers, trying to calculate the chances of getting this done his way.
Rate and Review.
Judas here was actually an idea for another story, but since I was working on this I decided to throw him in and have an explanation why. And I'll probably do more of the "what's going on in other places" so it can get more words.
