VulpixTrainer: not much to say so on to the Reviewers
Raichu-Fan: first off, sorry about missing your question in chapter 16 review. So as to what type they are? Well to be honest that is to come at a later time
Negrek: Remember Becky being an anthro? That is what she calls a PokeHuman, and it can last for a while, it just takes a lot of concentration because it's a little more advance than just moving between human and pokemon.
TheWhiteMonk: No she is not dodging the question, because frankly just to spill it up here. She doesn't understand either, in fact the attack has finally brought some light as to what is going on.
Just Your Everyday Morph
It was now morning after the Halloween fight, Matt is sitting in one of two chairs in his room upstairs, the other one is occupied by Becky and both are sitting at either ends of a portable card table. The room was painted Blue with a bed in the lower left side of the room, a P.C. storage system on the upper left side of the room. A clock reading Two O'clock with the sun shining from the one window on the right side of the room meaning it was two in the afternoon. And finally in the middle of it all was Matt and Becky with a steno notebook and a deck of cards.
"So can you read off that list again just so that we can see if we got it all? Oh and got any Mews?" Matt asked showing no emotion in his face as he asked for Mew.
"Sorry, Go Pokeball. Okay here it is for the third time around. First we can both take full Ninetales whenever we like. Second, we also can if we choose understand Pokemon as humans but no choice as Ninetales. Third, we both encountered this after major emotional experiences. Becky with Matt's open Heart Surgery, and Matt with that Ninetales attacking. Forth, we can if we put our whole Mind to it take a combo of the two. Note: the longer you practice the longer it can last. Five, after last night it seems that we are end results of Rocket tests and have some how slipped out of there grasps. And finally, Six, We now know as of last nights attacks that a full force water attack to us as humans, will only give us a major cold," at this matt who was wrapped up in a Pokemon pattered Quilt just Sneezed loudly. "Also Matt, Do you have any Lugia cards?" Matt at this hands her that card he just pulled from the pile, while at the same time commenting.
"That is not a lot of info, but it's all we have as of right now, so now all we have to do is train with this so that we don't blow our cover next session, frankly I don't want to stay cooped up for twenty years in a la,." He then sneezes again before continuing, "Also I'm glade that this is Saturday, it's now only about a week before our joint Birthday's and I plan on not getting sick for this years." Matt then waits for Becky to ask her next question.
"Okay Matt now do you have any Ho-oh cards?" she asked with a slight ting of coyness because she now had only three card left.
"Looks like you won this round, let's see now…" he then takes out a small notebook, one that reporters carry around with then, "This was game three of "Go Pokeball" which you won, so that makes the current standing in this game tied at ten million three hundred and twenty two. So what game do we play now?" Matt asked as he put his small notebook of scores away into a side pocket in his backpack.
"I'll tell what game you two can play, how about leaving Matt in peace so he can rest." A stern motherly voice sounded from the door way which was located next to the wall clock which now read Two-Ten. She then ushers out Becky while looking at Matt, "You hope back into bed you're looking a lot paler then this morning, in fact a good long nap wouldn't hurt you Becky, and you've gone a little pale yourself." Mrs. Vixen commented as she turned back to Becky who was staring out the window just gaping. "Come on then no wasting staring out empty window someone might think you're off your rocker," she then turns to Matt who was also staring out the window. "What is it that is so fascinating about a window?" she then just shakes her head as she leads a very quiet Becky to the front door. "Now go home and rest you might be coming down with what ever Matt has, now shoo." She then closes the door behind Becky as she walks home in a daze
Maybe I am, but for the briefest moment I thought I saw pink out the window, maybe I'm not, Matt was as pale as I was, now what would… No your just exhausted probable from that battle and up half the night with Matt. I must be coming down with a fever as well, I mean Matt's was around one hundred and two, slightly low for a Ninetales but high for a human, that was it I'm just very feverish.
By this time she reaches her home with the Sparks and after going up to her room barely aware of what was in it she just plops onto the bed and blacks out into a dreamless sleep.
(One week later)
Matt was out training, but not like you would think, for he was in his ninetales form, and was practicing against any further attacks that Team Rocket would try and pull (A/N: since Matt's in his Ninetales form I will type it all in English
"Okay Matt I want to see you're Fire Spin" Came Stripes voice, he had Matt's Pokedex out in front of him and had just pulled up the attacks screen. "Uh Matt I think those Rockets are really going to have a hard time, it states that you're faster and stronger then normal, not by much but still a little better then a level forty nine
"What?" Matt stops and looks and Stripes, "I'm what level?" he shakes his head muttering "They really don't know what they are doing do they, think they can play God and also have strong creatures… That's it, they did this for power, Dear Mew and Ho-oh, I'm suppose to be a tool for ultimate power." His voice then drops to a growl "Well they won't have me I have sworn to myself that I would be a great trainer in Kanto and I will be." He then focuses and sends out the worst Fire spin that Matt or Firestorm had seen.
"Matt you need to focus your thoughts into a funnel of fire, but there is also something else wrong." Matt the Vulpix sounded what both where thinking.
"Yes Matt I knew that, I guess I should stay at Ember and Will-O-Wisp's, right?" Matt asked his couch's or otherwise his Teammates. Every single one nods in agreement
"Matt are you there?" Came a new voice, his younger brother Ethan, when he came into the Meadow all he saw was a backpack, a burn mark where the failed Fire Spin had puttered out and other marks of well aimed and badly aimed shots where at. "Okay you can come home now, mom has finished cleaning the entire house, in fact you better get home pronto, as…" he never finished his sentence for Matt Jumped out from the woods total scared out of his wits grab his backpack and darted off with his Pokemon hot on his heel seconds later followed by a single old Beedrill who just lazily drifted into the meadow. Still scared of Beedrill I see. Ethan thoughts as he runs to catch up to Matt and maybe beat him in this undeclared race home. By the time they reached the house Becky had joined up from where she was training and the final standing as each one bounds onto the front porch are: First, Ruth, Second, Matt V, and Third Firestorm, shortly followed by the rest of the gang in a small pack of racing.
"That was a fun race; in fact we should add this to our daily running. What do you guys think?" Matt asked as he was slowly regaining his breath. He was assaulted by cheering of merriment of both his and Becky's Pokemon. "I guess that is an affirmative, what do you say Becky?" he asked turning to face Becky
"You old rascal, do you think I would stand a chance if I said no, I'm out voted, so the answer is yes." She said this all in a joking manner which suggested that she approved this at the same time her pokemon had.
At this moment the front door springs open and Mr. and Mrs. Vixen along with Mr. and Mrs. Sparks along with Ethan and other inside the house all yell out Happy Birthday.
"Well actually this is the day we adopted you…" Mr. Sparks started to say before being stopped by his wife Mrs. Sparks
"Frank, you cut that out," turning to the two kids on the porch, seeing how Ethan had slipped inside before the two said, "Now come on into the dinning room and we'll serve you right up with some cake, ice cream, and of course presents." At this she turns around and leads the two to a elegantly dressed table along one wall was a streamer of multiple colors which said Happy Birthday 17th, on the table was a foot long by six inches sheet cake with a map of Kanto on it with a fake badge on the spot where the real badges where located, also there was pop of every kind from Ninetales Fizzle to Wortortile Spray, and on a server a where presents for the two kids.
"Mother! All I can say is… Wow… I mean wow you have really outdone yourself this time, I mean no wonder you sent me out at the crack of dawn" Matt just was blown away at all the attention to the detail, such that would take half a page to describe all of the detail, to make it short though was that it was the most grand that anyone could have pulled off in under five hours with about seven humans and even more pokemon help. "But why do you do this, every year you put out this grand spread for us, why? This is a question that he has asked for every year now since he was eleven.
"Because after the second surgery I just realized how close I came to lose you, you're my little baby and I'm always fearful that I would loss you to something, so at this time of year I'm just glade that you're safe and sound." Matt's Mother was just now crying at seeing him. All grown up almost and soon will be leaving for his journey to the Indigo Plateau, my how the years have past. "So let's see you two open up those gifts, what do you say folks?" the small gathering of both families just nods and shouts yes.
"Matt and Becky, open ours up first." Mr. Sparks said while Mrs. Sparks handed over there two presents, with his usually twinkle in his eye, being around forty and also just a little over weight, not by much, and also had a round face, with a very big grin and an outrages mustache; he was a man of laughter.
"Okay dad." Becky responded so after Mr. Sparks Handed her two presents, each small rectangle, having on then a Pokedex print on them. She gives Matt his and puts her present in front of herself. After some time of opening the wrapping, Matt likes saving the paper to make home made toys for the Persian, they both where shocked, for in front of them where two PokeGears,
"This is so you don't have to carry around those paper maps, it also has a built in radio…" Mr. Sparks was explaining what the functions where when Becky just interrupted him good nature like.
"Dad I know all of that, it's just wow, Thank you so much." Becky gushed in complete surprise.
"Humph, with those satellites hanging up in space, where is the fun of tracking, I mean it's no fun without risking getting lost sometimes." Matt said in a fake tone of grumpiness, two seconds after he said this he couldn't keep the face any longer and just broke up laughing saying in his laughing, "thank you Mr. Sparks, this will most definitely help out with my ability of tracking through places, heck I once got lost in the Department Store, and that was my, what tenth visit?" this just made the entire room laugh at the incident, mind you at the time Mrs. Vixen was worried sick for Matt's safety.
Next Ethan came over to Matt and Becky holding his present and smiling very widely said. "Open mine next, please."
"Alright Ethan we'll open yours next." Matt said in a confused tone, Ethan's present was wrapped in a Fire Stone print and both where in square box's. Matt and Becky opened up the box's at the same time and inside Matt's where two Technical Machines and in Becky's was one. Becky was Confused at what it was for on the side it said TM38. "Ethan you shouldn't, how did you get these?" Matt was in complete shock.
"What is it? What is in these TM's Matt?" Becky still didn't know what was in the Machines.
"It's Fire Blast Becky, meant for Matt, Firestorm, and Drake," turn to Ethan he pulled him into a kind headlock and ruffled his hair up, "Thank you dear brother now I have something to do until the league begins again."
""I think it's our turn Tim." Mrs. Vixen said to her husband as he pulled the last two presents off the server, he then hands them over to Matt and Becky and similes saying, "something to put your final dreams in." and then hands two thin rectangle boxes wrapped in the Indio League Symbol with a white background.
Inside the present where two badge container, those kind that are water tight, flame resistant and also very light to carry, inside there where spots for eight badges, eight memories to be filled and cherished, eight hurdles to tackle before the final one, Indio Plateau.
"Thank you so much, now I can safely store all my badges, isn't that right Becky?" Matt asked getting as excited as a ten year old on Christmas.
"Yes and now it's sealed where both going to the league to compete and there see who is the best in all of Kanto." They both had a fire burning in their eyes, a fire of determination, one that won't die no matter what would lay in their way. Finally Matt turns to Becky and smiling tells her the stay there, confused Becky complies and stays while Matt leaves and by the sound of it runs upstairs.
At most two minutes later he comes back into the dinning room with his hands behind him holding something, looking suddenly nervous he tells her, "I didn't have time to wrap it, and it may be simple, but I hope you like it." Then he takes his hands behind his back and presented her with a small chunk of the dead Fire Stone, it was hanging on a red chain through a small hole that was bore near the top, the bottom smoothed out, but you could tell that it broke off along that spot.
"Oh Matt, your stone broke?" Becky asked as she got up to examine the stone. She then let Matt step behind her and put it on for her telling her why it was broken.
"Well, Matt and Firestorm was wrestling in my room and bumped up against my desk about the evening after the attack and the stone fell of and broke into two pieces, this small one and then a bigger part, completely scared the two silly, I think they thought I would scold them, instead I told them thanks for the great idea of a gift for you." Matt then finished attaching the red chain only to be caught up in a hug from Becky with her whispering into his ear.
"Thank you so much Matt, this is a very nice present and I will wear it every day." She then gave him a small kiss on the check which just froze Matt to the spot and then Becky just stared at the group upon their reaction to this.
"Finally you two." Everyone replied in there relief of laughter. This after a minute was joined in by two friends who realized that even after hanging around since they both where at the orphanage now had something more.
