Sorry, it's been so long. I've been really busy and have had to do other things. I finally found time to write a new chapter. Hope you enjoy it.

Luna sat down on the couch in the poke center. Silver was being very slow today. She shoved a couple of pokepuffs in her mouth and continued to wait for him. "Sorry. I couldn't find all of my stuff." Silver ran over to her.

"Took you long enough. Let's go and get this battle over with already so I can leave." She stood up and they walked outside to a spot where they could battle. Luna pulled out Tot and Bell's pokeballs. She released her pokemon and waited for Silver to release his. They had decided that they might as well have a quick battle before they fought Bugsy. Luna wouldn't admit it to Silver, but she enjoyed battling and being with her own pokemon instead of just playing with Ethan's Azurill. She liked battling Falkner back in Violet City. Maybe this journey wasn't going to be a complete waste of her time.

"Are you going to release your pokemon or are you going to sit there all day?" Silver asked. Bow stood in front of him, waiting patiently to battle.

"Shut up. I was plotting." She released Bell and the sweet pokemon stared at Bow. "Tackle." Bell rushed towards Bow.

"Dodge!" Silver shouted. Bow quickly moved out of the way. "Tackle!" Bow ran and tackled Bell. The two pokemon continued to spar until they were both tired. Silver released Cinder as Luna released Tot. Bell and Bow sat back and waited, trying to relax after their battle.

"Tot, use Scratch." Luna yelled.

"Cinder tackle Tot." Silver shouted. Cyndaquil attacked Totodile before he could scratch Cinder. "Don't forget. Totodile may have a better attack, but Cyndaquil has better defense and speed." Silver smiled.

"Water gun!" Tot quickly attacked before Cinder could dodge. "What was that about being fast?" Luna smiled. Tot seemed so much happier. He was stronger and seemed to glow. She looked over a Silver's Cyndaquil. Cinder seemed to glow too… Suddenly, She realized what was happening. Cinder and Tot were evolving! She watched as their pokemon changed into their new forms. Tot had evolved into Crocnowl while Cinder had evolved into Quilava.

"Hey, buddy. How do you feel?" Silver laughed.

"Quilava!" replied Cinder.

"I guess I can't call you Tot anymore now can I?" Luna smiled as Tot walked over to her. The Pokemon shook his head and spit a bit of water at her. Luna giggled as it hit her face. Her first pokemon evolved.

"Well, mission complete. Let's go get you guys healed up." Silver spoke as he put Bow and Cinder back into their balls. Luna put Bell and Tot back into their balls and walked with Silver back to the Pokemon Center. As they walked in, Luna noticed a boy sitting on the couch with a sketch pad. A Gardevoir sat in front of him, acting as a model, an Eevee that wasn't the normal colors for an Eevee, and a Froslass sat next to him. The boy had purple hair and part of his bangs were in his face. He had a pin attached to his jacket that was decorated with a rainbow.

Luna walked up to Nurse Joy and handed over her pokeballs. Suddenly her pokegear went off. She grabbed it and answered.

"Good morning sis. How are you? Where are you right now?" Hannah started.

"Morning Hannah. I'm great. I'm in Azalea right now."

"How's Totodile doing?"

"He not a Totodile anymore. He just a evolved a few minutes ago. I'm getting him and my Mareep healed up at the Pokecenter."

"You have a Mareep now huh. Is it cute?"

"Bell is very cute."

"That's good. Have you met Kurt yet? How about Bugsy?"

"Silver and I are going to battle Bugsy in a bit. Who's Kurt?"

"Kurt is a Pokeball maker. I think his granddaughter lives with him. So your traveling with Silver now? Please don't kill him."

"We just ran into each other. I haven't had time to meet Kurt yet. Did mom help you call me?"

"Yes. She's standing right next to me, I think. Good talking with you sis. Good luck getting the Hive badge."

"Thanks, sis. Love you." Hannah hung up and Luna put her pokegear away in the bag.

"You done now?" Silver asked, handing her pokeballs.

"Shut up. Let's just go." Luna replied. The boy with purple hair was now gone and so were the two pokemon that had been next to him. Was he going to fight Bugsy too?

Luna and Silver walked into Bugsy's gym. "Hello, can I help you two?" A young man asked.

"We're looking for Bugsy." Silver answered.

"He's meeting with Kurt right now. He needed more net balls. You can wait here if you but he might take awhile."

"Let's go over to Kurt." Luna told Silver. He nodded and they walked over to the house behind the gym. There was a white Apricorn tree grew next to it. Currently, there was a little girl playing in a puddle next to a Slowpoke. She had brown hair and blue eyes. The Slowpoke had a white bow tied around its tail.

"Maizie!" Silver called. The little girl looked over at him and smiled.

"Silver!" She giggled as she ran over to Silver. Maizie hugged him. "You came to visit!"

"Nice to see you too Maizie. How's slowpoke?"

"She's great! Grandpa helped me make some treats for her, but she's so lazy it took her forever just to eat one!"

"Good thing Munchlax don't live around here or she wouldn't have gotten any." He laughed. Luna smiled. So Silver did have a sweet side to him.

"Silver, who's that weird girl staring at us?" Maizie asked.

"Maizie, meet Luna. We're traveling together for the time being."

"Hello." Luna waved.

"She's not your girlfriend, is she?" Maizie questioned.

"Nope, not at all." He replied. "She's hardly a friend." For some reason that stung. She could tell if he was joking or not, but either way, it hurt. They were kinda friends, weren't they?

"Maizie, come inside fore some lunch." Someone called.

"Grandpa, look who came to see us!" Maizie shouted. A man walked outside, a boy with lavender hair was behind him.

"Hello Silver. Is Elm with you?" He asked.

"Hey, Kurt. Nope, it's just me and my friend Luna today." Silver answered. The boy walked right on past them, heading over to the gym.

"Friend, huh. Would you and Luna like some lunch too? I have some extra." Kurt offered.

"By that, he means he made to much again." Maizie giggled. Silver looked to Luna and she gave him a shrug.

"Why not. We could use some food before we challenge Bugsy." Silver replied. Kurt lead them inside and they sat down. Kurt pulled out two more plates and put food on them. Maizie dragged her Slowpoke inside and then it fell asleep again. Kurt and Silver talked with Maizie chiming in, but Luna stayed quiet and just ate.

Silver hadn't been able to talk with Kurt and Maizie for a while. It had been a least three months. He looked over to Luna. She was staring at her food and seemed to be lost in thought. Had he said something that upset her? Maybe she just felt out of place. "Hey, Luna." She looked up. "Do you still have that pink Apricorn?" He asked.

"Yeah, why?" Luna answered.

"Kurt could turn it into a Pokeball for you." He turned to Kurt. "You use the pink ones for Love balls, right?" Kurt nodded.

"If I work quick enough, I might have it done after your battle with Bugsy. He was just here for the Net balls that I made him." Luna pulled the Apricorn out of her bag and handed it to Kurt.

Luna and Silver finished eating and then they said their goodbyes. "Makes sure you tell Elm I'm still alive." Kurt cackled.

"Bye Silver." Maizie waved.

"Bye Kurt. Behave Maizie." Silver smiled. They started to walk over to the gym. "Hey, I'm sorry if I said something that upset you."

"What are you talking about?" Luna asked.

"You didn't talk very much so I just assumed that I had hurt you." Silver started. "I do see you as a friend and I don't want to do something that makes you hate me."

"Sh… Shut up! It didn't hurt." She stuttered.

"If you say so." Silver smiled. She was lying, but at least she didn't hate him.

Luna and Silver entered the gym. "Hello!" Bugsy shouted. They both jumped after Bugsy had popped from out of nowhere. "Welcome to my gym. Please be careful of all of the Weedles, Metapods, Kakunas, and …"

"Spinarak." Silver interrupted, pointing to a Spinarak that was dangling in front of a frozen Luna. Silver could already tell that she didn't like the spider pokemon very much.

"Yep! Most of these guys are wild pokemon that are healing from Trainer battles. A couple of them belong to me and the other Bug Catchers.

"I'm sorry, but will someone please move this thing?" Luna asked. Bugsy sighed and carefully moved the Spinarak.

"You're just like Misty. What is wrong with people who don't like bug pokemon?" Bugsy questioned.

"I don't dislike all bug pokemon, just the spider-like ones." She sighed. Silver tried to contain his laughter, but Luna noticed him and started to glare.

"Well, how 'bout we start the battles so you two can start to your next town. Who's going first?" Bugsy asked, picking up a Pokeball. Silver looked over to Luna.

"Ladies first." He gestured towards the battlefield.

"Okay, I'll wait over here." Luna smirked.

"Ha. Ha. Ha." He mocked, pulling out Pidge's Pokeball.

"Three on three?" Bugsy asked.

"Yep." Silver replied, releasing Pidge.

"Okay." Bugsy released a Kakuna and smiled. "Let the battle begin!"

I hope you all enjoyed that and I promise there is so much more to come. *Evil Laugh* Please keep reading and again I'm sorry that I have posted anything in forever.
