Me: *Snore*
Aiko: Sorry for the long wait, but Gemstone Gal had a VERY busy weekend.
Akio: She had a field trip on Friday that was longer than the school day that was awesome, had to go to a band concert that was also awesome, then yesterday she was forced to go shopping, then went to her friend's awesome costume bday party, and she finally has some free time today. She's also very tired.
Me: *Snore*
Mr. 001 - :3
Leodasdragon - Lol, sure~ And I HATE the Spectra battlefield, cause of the flames and the moving statues. Don't worry, I won't tell Mitsunari.
Mitsunari: Tell me what?
Me: O_O Uh...nothing...
Mitsunari: *Starts chasing me*
Aiko: ^^' While Mitsunari chases Gemstone Gal, I'm going to say that she doesn't own Pokemon.
Akio: Read, review, and enjoy! :3
Chapter 7 - Shiny
Aiko yawned as she woke up the second day of the festival. Eve and Shiro were looking at her, and pawing at her closet. She raised her eyebrow, but opened it anyway. There was a beautiful blue kimono with snowflakes. Aiko quickly put it on then walked out of her room. She saw Oichi with a pink kimono with different kinds of roses on it. Aiko noticed that most of the females were in beautiful decorated kimonos while the males were just wearing plain kimonos...including her brother, who was wearing a black kimono.
"Ah, Aiko! Good morning!" Oichi smiled.
"Morning!" Aiko said cheerfully. "I'm going to go and see what games there are, wanna come with me?"
"Ah, I wish I could, but Jigglypuff is itching for a fight, so we're heading to the battlefield to see if anyone would like to battle her." Oichi said. Aiko nodded.
"Then I'll see you later." Aiko said, skating away on an ice trail a few inches above the ground, that disappeared as soon as it was more than a foot away from Aiko.
Akio looked around, Kuro and Razor were as well. The Drifloon egg was safe in his arms. Akio smiled when he found what he was looking for...a Charm store. He was looking for the item called 'Guardian Charm', which was supposed to help raise your attack, range and defence when you were soloing in battle or were the last one left. He looked around a bit.
"Excuse me Lord Aki-Aka, but what are you looking for?" A man asked. Akio realized that he was using his middle name due to him pretending that his name was Aka.
"Guardian Charms, so that my sister and I can use them to help us with our training." Akio replied.
"Ah, okay. They should be over there." The man pointed to a corner that only a few people were at. Akio thanked the man and walked to the corner. He could see why there hardly any people there. The charms were expensive. He saw one with a pink background and a snowflake on it. He also saw one with a green background and a black Japanese kanji symbol for darkness. Akio took both of them and bought them, tying the one with the black kanji symbol around his neck while putting the other one in his pocket.
Aiko sat on top a tree, eating a peach. Eve and Shiro were both eating pecha berries. Her eyes widened and she grabbed her two partners and jumped onto a platform of ice. Where they just were was struck by fire that grazed Aiko's leg.
"Oi, whoever that was, you're going to be sorry!" Aiko said. "Use Double Quick Attack!" Both Eve and Shiro rammed into whatever had tried to hurt them. It stumbled backward, revealing a Flaaffy and a Charmander with several Mareep. Eve and Shiro growled, and they ran away. All but one Mareep. This one Mareep was pink instead of yellow, smaller than most, and it's leg was injured. Aiko gasped at the other sheep pokemon leaving this one behind, and got a bandage to wrap around it's leg. The pink Mareep was clearly a female. Once Aiko had wrapped it's leg nice and tightly, the Mareep huddled next to Aiko.
"Gla. Glaceon." Eve said.
"Ee! Eevee." Shiro said.
"You think I should?" Aiko asked, looking at the Mareep. The Mareep nodded. "Alrighty, then from now on, your nickname shall be Thunder!" The newly named Thunder smiled. A golden light appeared.
"Mareep!" Thunder said.
"Another partner...welcome to the team, Thunder!" Aiko said.
Akio looked around. There was something wrong.
"Kuro, use Dark Pulse to the right!" Akio ordered. The Umbreon's attack hit a tree and something fell out of it. It was a Flaaffy, a Charmander and several Mareep. Unlike Aiko, Akio had trouble making them go away. The sheep pokemon had cornered them. That's when it happened. The egg hatched. The balloon pokemon yawned, as it hatched with sparkles coming out. It was a shiny. And Akio could tell that it was a female. Akio touched the Drifloon's head, and a golden light appeared.
"Alright, for now you won't have a nickname, but we're in some big trouble, so use Astonish!" Akio said. The baby Drifloon was actually a very good fighter, considering it was a newborn. Eventually, the Flaaffy, Charmander and all the Mareep were beaten. Akio sighed in relief, then turned to his new partner.
"Hm...a nickname for you..." Akio was thinking. "How about Lemon, because you're yellow?"
"Drif!" The Drifloon smiled.
"Alright! Then Lemon it is!" Akio said, petting the baby pokemon on the head.
Aiko was walking around, with Eve on her left, Shiro on her right shoulder, and Thunder on her right. She spotted her brother. With a Drifloon.
"So the egg hatched?" Aiko asked.
"Yeah. Is that-" Akio started.
"A shiny Mareep? Yeah. Meet Thunder." Aiko said. "And I see that your Drifloon is also shiny."
"Here, take this. It's called a Guardian Charm." Akio said, handing the pink charm to his sister. Aiko put it on as soon as she got it.
"Let's go find Oichi so we can watch Jigglypuff battle~!" Aiko said. Akio nodded.
As it became night in Aurora, Aiko wasn't feeling well. Thunder kept nudging Aiko's leg, but no one knew why. Until Aiko remembered.
"Oh yeah. I was grazed by fire there. Maybe that's why." Aiko said.
"By fire? That's not good if your power is ice!" Hanbei exclaimed.
"As much as I hate to admit it, but he's right. You can get seriously ill if you don't get it treated soon." Mitsunari said.
Me: NOW YOU MUST WAIT TO SEE WHAT HAPPENS TO HER! MWAHAHAHA *Falls asleep*
Question of the chapter: Since last time I asked who was your favorite Warlord, this time, who is your favorite(and least favorite if you want) JUNIOR warlord?
FUN FACT: Did you know that Herdier and Stoutland can learn surf? It's true, I have two Stoutlands, one in White the other in Black, and I taught them both surf.
Akio: Don't forget to vote for who you want to be with Aiko~
Aiko: See ya! :3
