Last Chapter:
"Ohmygod, what's the date today?" She asked slowly.
"The 27th of February, is anythi- oh." Drew replied.
"Oh? Is that all you can say? OH!?!?! It's the day of the final by the Ramen Bar!?!?!" May squealed, yes, actually squealed.
Drew sweatdropped "Only you would have remembered that it was by the Ramen Bar. Us normal people say that its just by the seaside, you know."
"You're far from normal, I'd say."
"Well, you're right."
"Jerk."
"And you love me for it."
"...You're still a jerk,"
"Thank you for that absolutely fab appeal by Miss Lily Smith! And now we have our highlight of the day May Maple and Drew Hayden, competing for the title of the winner of the Extreme Contest again, after a small accident earlier! This is a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity again for both of our competitors!" The MC, Lillian, shouted out from her microphone. May ran out excitedly from the entrance, her dress bouncing around her. For this special final event she was given the permission by Mr Contesta to dress up formally. She wore a beautiful wine red bubble dress with a thin halter neck strap, and in the middle was a ring of shiny beads((A/N: The dress is on my profile page)). Drew walked casually from the other entrance, in a crisp black and white tuxedo, looking all smart, making the fangirls swoon. They shook hands and smiled warmly before taking their positions, pokeballs in hand.
"Espeon, Umbreon, take the stage!!" Her eyes were bright and shining with the excitement and anticipation of this final, and she was prepared to go off with a bang.
"Masquerain, Absol, come on out!!" Drew had his trademark smirk back in place, but there was something different about him, and he seemed, almost, nervous?
"Espeon, Tail Whip!" And so it began. Espeon pounced elegantly and turned, moving forward to strike.
"Masquerain, Gust!" Espeon was blown back by a powerful wind, the move was null and void. "Now Absol, Double Team and Dark Pulse!"
"Umbreon, Double Team and then use an Iron Tail on ALL of them!" Multiple Umbreons appeared, and they all hit another Absol, and a howl of pain signified that one of them hit.
"Masquerain, Water Pulse!"
"Reflect, Espeon, now!" The Water Pulse came back to Masquerain and had no time to dodge, so he was partially hit by his own attack.
It went on like this for a very long time, neither side willing to give up, until when Drew made a subtle signal at the electronics center at the back of the hall that very few people noticed. The stage's bright spotlights spread across the place dimmed slightly. Suddenly, Beautifly flew in through the front entrance next to Masquerain, and lifted Espeon and Umbreon up until they were directly above Drew and May.
"Moonlight, Umbreon, and Morning Sun, Espeon!" A feminine voice shouted out clearly. Later on, they would find that the mystery person was Solidad, but they had no idea at the time. The bright lights from the pokemon couple shone at Drew and May, putting them in a glittering spotlight. Drew turned round to face May slowly, as if he wanted to savour this moment, but was scared of what's going to happen if he did.
"May, you always have such a precious spark of life and joy in you, you are my favourite, the one I depend on, and you are so unique. You are absolutely indispensable to me, and in all of that need and dependence, I am madly in love with you. I feel so empty when you're not with me that I am almost non-functional, and so blissful when you are I want to spent every second of my life with you. Might as well get this out; May Haruka Maple, will you marry me?" Drew then took out a beautiful rose that made May gasp with awe. It was the most beautiful rose she had ever seen, and inbetween the vivid red petals was a magnificent engagement ring ((A/N: The ring is on my profile, I can't describe things)). He slid the ring on her fourth finger, and kissed each finger. By this time May had tears flowing down her face, and such love in her eyes.
"Y-yes," She choked out finally, and Drew smiled so wide it seemed his gorgeous face would break. He slid the ring smoothly on her fourth finger, and kissed each finger gently. He then let out a laugh, spun her round twice and kissed her passionately. Suddenly, the lights came on, and almost all of May's Pokemon were in a well-thought of formation. Dragonair was in the middle, with ALL the eeveelutions around her, making up the tail feathers to appear as of a beautiful peacock formation. Only Cherrim was in front of Dragonair on her own, and Delcatty was still at home with Norman and Caroline Maple. They would surely be watching this.
"NOW!" Drew shouted joyously. All at once, the eevelutions shot out their most powerful attacks; Flareon, Fire Blast; Jolteon, Thunder; Vaporeon, Hydro Pump; Espeon, Psybeam; Umbreon, Dark Pulse; Leafeon, Leaf Blade; Glaceon, Blizzard. Cherrim created a Sunny Day, and the attacks sparkled in the artificial sunlight. The overall spectacle was overwhelming for May, as fireworks blew up in the rapidly darkening sky. She captured Drew in a sweet kiss, pouring all her love and adoration in it. Drew, of course, returned this very enthusiastically. The crowds exploded with loud applaude at the heart-warming scene in front of them.
"Well, we would like to send our congratulations to our bride-and-groom-to-be," Mr Contesta said warmly, "as an early wedding present, we would like to ask whether you would still like to battle for the trophy or shall we award it to both of you?" Drew and May quickly agreed gleefully for both of them to receive the prized trophy.
As they lifted the Pokemon Cup, hand in hand, they knew that some things were just meant to be.
