Here is Chapter 4! Sorry I didn't get to post recently, I was on a family vacation. Thank you so much everyone for all the reviews and stuff like that! Thank you! I also just realized that I can write three page stories and they seem really short on here! Anyway, another 3 pager. Thank you! :D
Kitsune awoke to find herself lying with her face in the snow. She looked about, trying to remember what happened. Then she remembered the three bird pokemon. She shivered at the thought of the largest one and how it attacked her and Ryuu. Ryuu! She had forgotten about him. She looked around, and realized he wasn't near her. She stood up carefully, wincing at the pain in her stomach.
'Man, this stinks. I should've listened to Joy.' She scowled and stood up. She tripped over something and used her left arm to keep her up, but winced at the pain. Her wrist had twisted the wrong wway, and now it ached to put pressure on it. 'Oh, man... This is so annoying...' She tried to walk to the Pokemon Center when she saw three lumps in the ground. She recognized one as Ryuu.
"Ryuu!" She shook him. "Ryuu, get up, you lazy butt! Come on! Who's the stronger one now, huh? I should take a picture and send it to everyone I know and tell them I beat you in a battle…" After realizing that didn't work, Kitsune sighed and began to drag Ryuu.
"Augh! Watch it, what are you doing you idiot?" Ryuu tore his hand free of Kitsune's grasp. "Can't you see my leg is injured?" Kitsune rolled her eyes.
"Oh yeah. Right, and you were telling me to dodge." Kitsune retorted.
"Well, you didn't do so hot in dodging either!" Ryuu replied.
"Oh? I'm sorry, did I hear something? I guess not… Or maybe it was just Ryuu saying he doesn't need my help when I have two free non-injured legs." Kitsune smirked. Ryuu growled.
"I don't need you! Go get your stupid pokemon, you pathetic loser!" Ryuu screamed.
"Don't mind if I do!" Kitsune exclaimed, walking away.
"I didn't mean that literally! Besides, we don't want this happening again, do we?" Ryuu said. Kitsune stopped in her tracks.
"I-uh- that was just an accident! I had it all under control until you showed up!" said Kitsune.
"Under control? You would have gotten killed by those pokemon!" Ryuu yelled.
"Well, if you were meaning to be the hero, you sure did well!" Kitsune exclaimed.
"Fine! Next time you are being attacked by rabid wild pokemon, don't come crying to me!!" bellowed Ryuu.
"I didn't even ask for your help. There won't be a next time." Said Kitsune calmly.
"Exactly! Turtwig, Vine Whip!" His pokemon, which had been KO'd, arose and was feeling better.
"Turt-twig!" It grabbed Kitsune by her legs and hoisted her in the air.
"Good thing you have two good legs!" Ryuu said. Then, a sudden wind blew Turtwig over and it let go of Kitsune. She fell to the ground, sticking her arm up so it wouldn't get hurt anymore. The wind stopped, and then started, this time stronger than before. "A blizzard! Come on, we have to get to shelter!" Ryuu motioned for Kitsune to come help him. Kitsune ran over, picking up Turtwig. She grabbed Ryuu and pulled him up and began dragging him to the Pokemon Center. "It's too far! We won't make it!" Ryuu yelled over the blizzard. Kitsune looked around and saw a small cave. She reached into Ryuu's jacket pocket.
"What are you doing?" Ryuu asked.
"Turtwig's poke ball! I'm returning him so he won't get blown away, you dimwit!" Kitsune answered. She returned Turtwig and proceeded to dragging Ryuu into the cave. She pushed him into it, and covered the entrance with a rock. It was a fairly medium-sized cave. Kitsune set up a tent for herself and gave her sleeping bag to Ryuu.
"Gosh, aren't you supplied anymore than that?" asked Ryuu.
"I usually don't have to share my stuff with another person! Besides, if you don't want it, just say so!" Kitsune said. Ryuu turned and laid down on the sleeping bag. Kitsune heard his breathing slow. She sighed in relief. She changed into her pajamas in her tent and went to sleep very carefully, trying not to lie on her arm.
--
Kitsune awoke the next morning. She looked outside the tent and saw Ryuu still sleeping. She saw his leg, and noticed his wound looked bad. She went into her tent and pulled out her first aid kit and grabbed her tape bandage. She carefully began wrapping it around his leg, when he woke up. He jumped backwards and pulled his leg back. Kitsune, her left hand tangled in the bandage was sent flying forwards onto him.
"Get off of me!" He yelled. She frustratedly screamed.
"That's the last time I ever try to help you!" Kitsune stalked off into her tent. Kitsune sat down, rubbing her wrist. Ryuu hadn't realized she had gotten hurt as well. Kitsune could hear him sighing and groaning. She could hear the bandage as he continued wrapping it. He finished wrapping his leg and crawled over to Kitsune's tent. He needed to think of something to say to her.
"Kitsune! Come out!" He yelled. She burst out of the tent. He half expected her to be crying but her face was red with anger instead.
"I try to help you, but no! You scream at me! I try to be nice to you, but no! Instead I get a mental slap in the face! I try to fix your twisted leg, but NO! You went and take that for granted! You wouldn't last a minute by yourself! And why? Because you were weak and pitiful, but you still thought you were the best! You failed in your pokemon journey even though you just started, and that's why you were on a plane back to Masago Town! Your hometown, right? You were going home to cry to your mom! Or to just quit your pokemon journey and just lounge around all day sulking! Then FINE! Do it on your own! I have had enough of your selfish-ness, you pig!" She stomped out of the tent, pressing the button on the top and grabbing it and her bag as it automatically folded back. She stomped out of the cave leaving Ryuu, slightly astonished.
"Augh, who needs him! What a selfish jerk! I can't believe him!" Kitsune made her way down the route. A giant bird pokemon appeared from the trees. "GET OUT OF MY WAAAAAAAAY!!" She bellowed at it. It flew away.
"FEAROW-FEAR?!" or (BUT WHY?!) She stomped until she was finally in Masago Town. She looked at her map and found Professor Nanakamado's lab. She entered.
"Hello, this is Professor Nana-" started a short green-haired professor.
"AM I TALKING TO YOU?!" Kitsune screamed. The scientist cowered in fear.
"Hello? Excuse me miss, can I help you?" asked a tall white haired man in a lab coat. Kitsune looked at the man and easily recognized him. She smiled happily. The green-haired scientist gave a confused look at the taller older man, then looked back to Kitsune, to the man, and then back to Kitsune. Kitsune glared at him.
"DID I ASK FOR YOUR OPINION?!" She bellowed. The older man cleared his throat.
"I am Professor Nanakamado. Can I help you?" He repeated.
"Oh, hi! I'm Kitsune. I'm here to get my first pokemon!" The professor nodded and beckoned for her to approach a table.
"Here I have three pokemon. Chimchar, the fire pokemon, Piplup, the water pokemon, and finally, Turtwig, the grass pokemon." He pointed to the same three pokemon Kitsune had seen in the postcard. Then she remembered.
"Oh yeah, here's my postcard!" She showed him the card. He nodded and went off to his desk.
"Pick a pokemon!" he said. Kitsune looked at the three pokemon. It was an easy decision. She picked up a poke ball. "Have you picked one?" Nanakamado asked. Kitsune showed him the poke ball. "A great choice! Here, you'll need these as well. There are 5 poke balls and a pokedex. A pokedex is something you use to learn more about pokemon. There is also your trainer card. Take these with you. Good luck! Uh, will you be needing something for your hand?" He asked, noticing her wrist, twisted in an odd position. Kitsune chuckled nervously.
"Yes please, sir!"
--
Kitsune ran outside with her new pokemon in her pocket. She took out its poke ball. She was about to release it when she saw Ryuu enter the town.
"What are you doing here, jerk?" Kitsune growled.
"I don't know, I kind of live here, remember!" He replied. Kitsune roared.
"We will settle this with a pokemon battle!" Kitsune said, showing her poke ball.
"Wow." Was all Ryuu said.
"Impressed, huh?" Kitsune replied, chuckling and smirking.
"No, I just feel terribly sorry for whatever pokemon that has to be paired with such a pathetic, annoying loser." He replied.
"PO-KE-MON BATTLE!" Kitsune bellowed. They ran out of the town and into the forest. "Here is a clearing! We will battle right here!"
"Why did we have to go into the forest?" He asked. Kitsune ignored him.
"One on one?" Kitsune hissed.
"Wouldn't have it any other way. Get out here, Turtwig!" Ryuu threw his poke ball into the air and a beam of red light shot out and Turtwig appeared on the ground.
"Turtwig! Turtwig!" It said.
"Go!" Yelled Kitsune, throwing her poke ball in the air.
Okay, the end! Kitsune saw right through Ryuu! What pokemon did she choose? I wonder… Find out next time! So stay tuned! XD
