Ivy's Story


Here's Chapter 2


"Over the summer, Clay and I often played together, enjoying days of endless games and laughter until the volbeat appeared and I had to go home. It didn't take long for us to become best friends."


Since it was summer, every day was warm and Clay and I would meet up and play until sunset, playing tag or leapfrog or laying on our favorite hill and just talking or watching the clouds.

Today it was hot, and I decided to take Clay and go swimming in the river, so after we met up at the hill, I said, "Last one in is a rotten berry!" and took off, Clay running behind me. "Hey, no fair! you're faster than me!" he yelled. I got there first, and Clay came a few minutes later, panting. "You're..fast..." he panted, I just smiled, pushed him into the water and ran in after him.

I immediately dove underwater and circled Clay after he had come up to the surface."Ivy? where did you go?" he looked around, trying to find me. Under the water, I smiled and then jumped out at him, "surprise!" I cried, "ahhh!" he screamed as I pounced on him, knocking him under the water. Coming up for air, I began to laugh as I gasped for breath. Clay, after glaring at me for a moment, also began laughing.

I floated on my back for awhile, enjoying the warmth of the sun, when a wave of water hit me. Spluttering and trying to get the water out of my eyes, I glared at Clay, who was laughing. "Oh, you're so gonna get it!" I said as I splashed him back. This led to a water war between us as we splashed each other with water. "Tag you're it!" I poked him and then ran off, Clay chasing me out of the water and onto the grass.

He managed to tackle me to the ground, I pushed him off and got up. We went back to the hill where Clay had left his log. I flopped onto my back on the ground, "what do you want to do now?" I asked Clay. He picked up his log, "I don't know." I thought for a minute, "I know! let's pretend to be other pokemon! try to guess what I am." I took a deep breath, puffing up my body, and then stuck my tongue out as far as it would go. Clay tried not to laugh as he watched me walk around like that, and tried to think of what pokemon I was pretending to be. "Oh! you're a Lickilicky!" I let out the breath I had been holding and nodded, "now it's your turn."

Clay thought for a minute, then, placing his log on the ground, tried balancing on one foot while holding his arms out. "You're a medicham!" I said, laughing as Clay lost his balance and fell over. He got back up, grinning. Then I got down on my paws and knees, "Torterra!" I said in my best impression of a Torterra's voice. We both laughed. Then Clay laid down and began flopping like a magikarp, "magikarp, magikarp" We laughed some more. "Oh," I said after I stopped laughing, "want to come to my house for lunch?"

"Sure." Clay agreed and we took off for my house, laughing the whole way. When we got to my house, I just opened the door and went in, gesturing for Clay to follow. I knew my dad didn't care if I didn't knock first, he usually knew if it was me. There's something you should know about my dad, he's a Sawk, which is strange since I'm a mienfoo, but my mom was a Mienshao. She doesn't live with us anymore though, and I miss her.

Clay was confused, he wondered why my mom wasn't around, he didn't see her anywhere, so he asked me where my mom was. I turned to him with a sad look, "she doesn't live with me and my dad anymore." Clay just nodded and didn't say anything else. "Dad! where are you?" I called out. "In the kitchen!" I heard my dad say. We walked into the kitchen, where my dad was making lunch. "Hi daddy!" I said happily as I walked over to him, "Hi Ivy, did you have fun playing outside?" he hugged me. I hugged him back, "yeah I did! This is my friend Clay."

"Nice to meet you Clay." My dad smiled, Clay smiled back. Lunch was peanut butter and jelly sandwiches and fruit salad. After lunch, my dad let us go back outside, so we ran around, and played tag and leapfrog. As the sun went down, little volbeat appeard, so we ran around trying to catch them. One landed on my paw, "hello there," I said to the volbeat, It smiled and flashed its light and then took off into the air again. Clay ended up with a volbeat on his nose, it tickled, making him sneeze. We laughed.


"Clay always was a good friend in those days. He always knew how to make me laugh." I said with a chuckle, remembering those days.


Back in those days Ivy and Clay always knew some way to have fun didn't they? And it's odd that Ivy doesn't have a Mother Isn't it? More on that later on. Reviews plz.
