Cool, Adam's helping them out! I'm not planning on having Adam in here for long though, to be honest, it was just suppose to be Barry and Anna. Okay, well enjoy the chapter!
The trio entered Jublife, and Adam walked the two to the Contest Hall, where he got Anna a pass.
"Here, the contest starts this afternoon, six-thirty. Mine starts in a few minutes, care to watch?"
"Oooooh...Barry this sounds fun! Can we go watch, can we?" she asked, holding Barry's arm like a five-year old.
Barry sighed, but smiled, "...Alright...but if you end up getting hurt...ADAM'S GETTING A FINE!" he exclaimed, giving Adam a dirty look.
Adam laughed, "...Why don't you just give your girlfriend a fine instead of me?"
Barry blushed, opened his mouth like he was about to say something, then closed it again.
"That's what I thought. This way you two, sit up in the bleachers. I'll be on in about ten minutes." With that, Adam left, running towards something like backstage.
"Come on, let's go!" Anna grabbed his hand, running up to the bleachers.
Barry screamed in surprise as he was pulled up, right, left, then finally, down.
"Whew...you could've gotten a fine, you know that?"
"Yeah, Barry, I know..." she sighed happily, head on his shoulder.
Prep Room
Adam now wore a white dress shirt, black bow tie, black dress pants, and black dress shoes. His hair was slicked back and he was putting a raindrop capsule on Buizel's Poke'ball.
"Good luck to us both Buizel..." he muttered, waiting for his turn on the stage.
Back to the Stage
The floor was dark, almost no lights were on, A decent amount of poeple littered the bleachers, and before the duo knew it, a single light shone down on the 'ringleader'.
"Hello! Welcome to the Jublife City Poke'mon Contest! Three Coordinators will compete for the Trade Ribbon! Please, let me introduce our judges! There's Jublife City's Officer Jenny, Nurse Joy, and...Poke'mon Judge Robert! Okay, let's bring out the first first contestant, May Miharu!"
The stage light lit up, revealing so called May walking up to the middle of the arena. She was wearing a short, belly dancer-ish outfit, with a short cape on her head, colored pink like the rest of her outfit.
"Okay May, show us what you got!" The 'ringleader' said, backing up.
"Beautifly, stage!" she called, throwing her Poke'ball.
The Ball erupted with sparkles and little stars, and a Beautifly appeared, crying her name happily.
"Let's start this off with Sweet Scent, then Whirlwind!"
"BEAUTIFLY!"
The Beautifly fly up high, letting out sparkling, pink powder that shimmered as they floated down. Next, she spun around, flapping her wings. The powder formed into a pink tornado.
"Now, fly around and use Gust!"
The butterfly type did as she was told, flying around the area with her wings glowing white. The powder flew off each time her wings glowed, shimmering over the entire audiance.
"How beautiful!" The woman said into the mic.
"Very remarkable use of Sweet Scent!" Officer Jenny commented.
"The Whirlwind move really brought out the sparkle!" Nurse Joy said, smiling.
"Amazing!" Poke'mon Judge Robert said, folding his hands.
"May, fabulous preformace! Now, get ready for the next Coordinator, Autumn Leafgraze!"
The woman with the microphone gestured the light to a girl that was coming onto the floor. She was average height, with startling blue eyes. Her hair was long, dirty blonde in color. She wore a black dress with fishnets, and goth boots that went to her knees. You would say she was Goth herself, if it wasn't for her overwhelming smile.
"Hello everyone!" she greeted, waving her Poke'ball into the air.
The crowd was cheering almost as loud for her, as they did for May. Anna had fallen asleep: Barry noticed and blushed upon seeing her head on his shoulder. Back down at the stage, it was obvious Autumn was about to begin.
"Piplup, SPOTLIGHT!" she exclaimed, throwing her Poke'ball into the air.
Her Poke'ball exploded with bubbles and splashes of water. Her Piplup would look ordinary, if it wasn't for the green scarf tied around her neck.
"Alright...begin!" The 'ringleader' called, backing off.
"First things first, Bubblebeam!" She said, throwing her hand into the air.
Piplup opened her beak, and released multiple bubbles into the air. The bubbles floated in the air, bobbing about.
"Now, let's use Ice Beam!"
The penquin jumped up in the middle of the bubbles, spinning around and releasing a beam of ice in random directions.
: "Lup!" she smiled, landing perfectly on one foot.
Her bubbles still floated, but they were now sparkling, suspended in sparkling ice.
"Whirlpool!"
"PIP..." water began to form inside her beak, growing to become a large whirlpool of water, "LUP!" The pool of water raised higher, attracting the bubbles.
The water splashed as the frozen bubbles swooshed around inside the pool.
"Stop the Whirlpool and quickly use Peck!" Autumn called, pointing her finger.
Piplup stopped using Whirlpool, and the iced bubbles began to drop. Acting quickly, Piplup jumped at a quick pase, causing the frozen bubbles to explode with her glowing beak. Each time one was broken, sparkles became suspended in the air. Once all the bubbles were gone, the sparkles became frozen as well, dropping to the ground and breaking into more sparkles, fading away after a few seconds. Her Poke'mon landed gracefully on her outstretched hand, both bowing as the crowd erupted into whistles and cheers.
"Great preformace!" The woman said, clapping her hands.
"Thanks, Mika!" she replied, to the woman now known as Mika.
"Great use of Bubblebeam and Ice combination!" Nurse Joy complimented, smiling.
"I loved the affect of Peck on the frozen bubbles!" Officer Jenny commented.
"Remarkable!" Poke'mon Judge Robert said, clapping along with the others.
"Once again, thank you for the performance, Autumn!" She left the stage and headed for the break room, "...now! Everyone welcome back Adam Melendez from Evergrande City!"
The crowd when nuts, cheering and whistling. Barry woke Anna up and told her to watch. She yawned and watched, but still had her head on Barry's shoulder. Adam walked out, wearing a tux, his hair slicked back, and three Poke'balls on his belt. One of which contained Lucario, who wasn't very happy at the moment. Adam smiled, looking up at the stands and waving at his two friends. Barry and Anna waved back, getting pumped.
"YOU BETTER WIN OR IT'S A BIG FINE FOR YOU!" Barry yelled, standing up and not sure if Adam heard him.
Adam rolled his eyes and took his place in the middle of the floor.
"Buizel, curtain!" he called, throwing his Poke'ball into the air.
He appeared in a flash of light, taking a battle stance.
"Ninetails, you too!" His fire Poke'mon appeared, evolved form of Vulpix.
"Okay...begin!" Mika said, backing up once more.
"Buizel, jump in the air and use Aqua Jet!"
Buizel obeyed, encasing his body in water and shooting up above the ground.
"Now, freeze the water with Ice Beam, and make a heart out of it!"
Buizel nodded, letting the beam from his mouth leak back onto the water, starting to freeze it. He still moved, doing a loop-dee-loop and escaping the water, landing on his feet. The frozen Aqua Jet formed a heart, in sparkled beautifully, gaining a few 'ooh's and 'ahh's from the audiance.
"Ninetails, your up! Get in between the heart and use Flamethrower!"
The large, white fox skidded under the icy shape, and fire erupted from her mouth. She moved her head, sure not to melt it too much.
"Okay, that's good!" Adam said, calling her off.
Adam's frozen heart was red, with fire circulating inside the ice. He could see that it was melting, and he needing to finish this.
"Buizel, jump in there and use Swift!"
Buizel let out a cry, and shot several stars at the heart, knocking the ice off with each hit. Once the ice was gone, a flamming heart now stood there, supported by a thin plate of whatever was left over from the frozen water.
"Now finish with a Water Gun!"
Buizel let loose a jet of water, cooling the heart down. Before it evaporated completely, you could see sparkling steam. After a few seconds, it was completely gone.
"Fantastic preformace, Adam! Thank you!"
"Remarkable use of a fire and water type!" Officer Jenny said, clapping with the audience.
"The fire heart made me feel warm in my own!" Nurse Joy concluded, smiling.
"Fantastic!" Poke'mon Judge Robert commented, clapping his hands.
After Adam left, Mika turned to the audience.
"Thank you for the support through the first round! Please, return in fifteen minutes when the second round begins! DISMISSED!"
Barry and Anna were clapping loudly and 'wooing' once Adam approached them in the stands.
"That was amazing!" Anna exclaimed, hugging the startled boy.
Barry was fuming, his face a light red.
"Yeah...I guess I'm not fining you today..." Barry sulked as Anna wrapped her arm around his shoulders.
"It's okay! How about the three of us go get some ice cream, huh? It's on me!"
"ALRIGHT!" Barry perked up right away, being dragged away by Anna.
"Hey, you love birds, SLOW DOWN!" Adam called, running after them.
