Look, a new chapter has appeared! I spent (patata) amount of time for you guys! I think this is more of a filler? (Am I using that properly?)
I don't own pokémon, because I'm too much of a bro!
Love Happens Suddenly
Chapter 2
Teddy stared at the two Pokémon in front of her with slight annoyance. In front of her sat an egoistic male Zangoose and a rather calm female Scrafty. Yet at this moment this Scrafty wasn't calm, and neither was the Zangoose. Especially the Zangoose.
If Teddy remembered correctly, the Scrafty was named Molly while the Zangoose, Jordan. They sat next to each other, looking away with crossed arms.
At least it wasn't when she first saw them twenty minutes ago, when they were on the verge of fighting.
Shaking her head, Teddy began to speak, "Guys, lis-"
"NO!" they both retorted in unison; immediately they glanced at one another, briefly in surprise. She then turned away, scowling, with him doing the same.
Teddy, on the other hand, sighed a bit, for her patience was beginning to run low. She had handled criminals better than she was handling these two.
However, the Pikachu was not about to give up and decided to try again.
"Molly," she called the Scrafty. She looked towards the mouse pokémon, quizzically.
"Yes?"
"Would...would you tell me what happened?"
Molly blinked in astonishment at the question, confusing Teddy a bit. It was as if no one had ever asked her for her side of the story or something.
The reptilian Pokémon faced the Pikachu as she began to recount her tale.
"Well you see, I was just playing chess with my good friend when suddenly, I'm smacked with this...plastic arrow. Then I see him." She pointed towards the Zangoose, "stomping over yelling he'll kill me."
The Zangoose growled as he opened his mouth and responded with, "Oh what a load of shi-"
"SHHHH!" Teddy shushed. "She isn't done telling her side yet."
Jordan looked baffled that she had hushed him, but turned away. He decided he didn't feel like fighting anymore, for he already had an awful headache.
The Pikachu sighed and looked back at Molly, "Okay, continue."
The Scrafty nodded as she started where she had left off, "I told him it hadn't been me, and I was just as confused as he was. However, he didn't believe me and eventually, we began to argue. We were just about to fight when you came over and stopped us."
"Okay. Now, Jordan, mind telling me your side?" she asked.
The feline-like creature turned around with a smirk. "Why yes, I really would like too, dearest Teddy!"
Cupid gave a casual hum as he skipped onto the steps of the library with some books in his paws. Entering the paradise full of books, he grinned as he walked up to the librarian's desk.
The librarian, a Gothitelle in her middle-ages, looked up with a kind smile.
"Oh hello there Frank." she greeted. "Bringing some books back for your mother?"
Cupid fumed a bit at being called his true name, but nodded hastily.
"Yes ma'am, but may I request a favor?"
"What is it, my dear boy?"
"Might you refrain from calling me Frank? I've long since changed my name to Cupid."
The Gothitelle gave a mild look of surprise before a subtle smile appeared on her face, "Why certainly…Cupid."
"Excellent...now...might you tell me where I can find the book on the ancient Gods?"
"The Gods?" The librarian questioned further, tilting her head to emphasize.
"Yes, yes! The one with Zeus the Arceus and Hades the Giratina!" he chirped.
"Ahh, that book! It's towards the back on the left hand side."
"Thank you," Cupid whispered a bit too loudly.
The librarian motioned for him to lower his voice. He grinned sheepishly and nodded before making his way towards the back.
It had been so long since he had read that book.
Teddy sat on a bench, eating a pretzel of sorts, as she kept her eyes on Jordan and Molly. The two were seated next to each other, talking and laughing a short distance away. After Jordan had told the story from his perspective, Teddy had convinced the two to attempt becoming friends. So far, it had worked.
The Pikachu however, decided it wasn't a bad idea to just keep an eye out. You know, in case their new found friendship was to go down south and another fight would break out between the two.
Finishing her pretzel, the Pikachu laid back, finally content she had eaten something.
Her thoughts seemed to drift from the two as it occurred to her, this event had taken place because they had hit with a plastic arrow. She certainly found it odd and tapped her chin lightly. Why would someone go around hitting innocent Pokémon with plastic arrows?
Then something had struck her. Per….perhaps...oh dear...maybe that was a way for someone who was targeting victims...
She swallowed and looked around, spotting the two pokémon as they walked out of the park. Giving a smile, she shook her head and relaxed.
Nah, it had to be something else. However, if it wasn't, she'd have to keep an eye out, because this could be bad. Very bad.
Okazzles, I'll admit no random getting hit by an arrow by Cupid stuff, but I don't want him to just be that! Plus, I think Teddy needed to straighten the ordeal between Molly and Jordan.Speaking of which, whoever guesses where I got their name, gets to choose the next pairing (Pokémon only please) for the story.Lemme just say they're from a French/Japanese anime! Have fun! R&R, if you can and help me out!
