Me: It's nice to know that my story is liked by many, but enough about me, I have more questions for you lot, well... One is less of a question and more of a suggestion, anyway, let's begin, first up is Amber, by a fan apparently.
Amber: Sweet, I got a fan?
Me: Seems like it, Vulpix's Flame is wondering if you believe you can evolve.
Amber: Course I can, and I wanna as well. I get bigger claws, teeth and muscles. :)
Me: Okay... Creepy, anyway, I will be using a great a mystical power today, it's called... PLOT!
Jet: …Really?! You bring that up now?!
Leon: Well, I personally cannot wait, I hope you add something interesting.
Me: I sure have, anywho, STORY START!
Chapter 11: Wrath of Fire
(Summer's POV)
Cory was such a nice host, he gave me a thorough tour of his large home showing me every last little detail and I must admit, I was impressed by how nice of a place he owned, he told me that he worked in a village shop and this was a house Fey had gotten after making away with the prize money from a chess tournament up at Roya. Fey and Jet are currently in the middle of a chess game, he had concentration etched across his face, but his eye's sparkled with joy, it seemed he was really enjoying himself and I really don't want to disturb them and break the concentration they have applied to their confusing game, I really have no idea what chess is, other then a weird mix up of black and white.
"Well, that was everything, I really hope you enjoyed this little tour." Cory says with a smile on his face, we had finished the tour upon entering the living room.
"Yes, thank you Cory." I say politely before sitting next to Jet, he was my closest friend in this world, that's for sure.
"Oh come on." Jet exclaims leaning back into his chair, a look of defeat showing on his face, Fey giggles slightly before speaking.
"Don't be so harsh on yourself Jet, you're a really good chess player." She says before standing up and stretching, she picks the chess board up and stores it on one of the shelves aligning the wall.
"Yeah, maybe so but remember, you're the best." Jet mentions.
"I guess I am." Fey giggling slightly. "Anyway, are you two doing anything today?" She asks me and Jet with a curious expression.
"Oh, I almost forgot about that. Summer, you wanna visit the shops with me?" Jet asks me using one of his cheery smiles. This sounds like a good idea.
"Yes please." I say smiling slightly, I swear his smile is infectious.
"Let's go then, we haven't got much else to do, I could keep losing games of chess to Fey." She pouts slightly hearing this, but it was obviously faked. "Or we could go visit the flower shop in the village." Jet says looking at me.
"Guess I'll see you later then." Cory mentions from behind us, Jet gestures towards the entrance to the house.
"Lady's first." He tells me politely, I take him up on his offer and exit our hosts home.
"So, flower shop first?" Jet asks me, I simply nod and he responds by smiling. We start walking through the village, it wasn't very large, only slightly larger the Ieshu. We spent most of the time talking about unimportant things, as we wander aimlessly for about half an hour, Jet then stops abruptly upon reaching the edge of the village, he looks at me with a slight blush.
"I'm kinda lost." He says before giving me a slightly nervous laugh. I sigh before turning around and taking a quick look around, beyond a few houses, there wasn't much around, I struggle to get my bearing before giving up.
"I have no idea where we are, sorry." I say quietly.
"Don't worry, it shouldn't take us too long finding the shop, but we could have used Leon here to help us." Jet says before walking back into the village, I think about Leon for a minute before realising that I hadn't seen him all day.
"Umm... About that Jet, where is Leon?" I ask before Jet turns around and answers me.
"Well, he said he had something to do, he can be so cryptic at times, especially when he mentions something about suspicious activity." Jet tells me, it looks like he was thinking of something before he shrugs and continues walking, I hope I didn't annoy him. We walk around very lost until Jet points in front of himself, I look towards where he was pointing and see a load of flowers outside of a building, It had a massive sign saying "The Flower Twins".
"Well, this is the place, the twins that run this place are only young, so be friendly please, of course I doubt you could be anything but." Jet says before laughing, making me blush faintly, Jet walks ahead of me and disappears into the shop, I enter after him and the inside was amazing, it was a massive collage of different colours mixing all around me, I loved it here, I couldn't really name any of the flower with my lack of any decent memories, but I still loved it, I walk into the shop some more before a yellow and blue little mouse Pokemon walks past me, watering any of the plant he passes, from what I learned from the Pokedex and my companions, this little guy was a Minun and he certainly seemed happy caring for the flowers, I head towards the counter and see Jet talking with another Pokemon that looked a lot like a Minun, but with a different tail and red markings, this must have been a Plusle, she was talking with Jet before facing me and giving me a smile, Jet looks as well before telling me to come over.
"So this is your companion?" The Plusle says gesturing to me, I nod nervously looking away slightly, she looked a little upset at that.
"Don't worry about her, she's just very shy, now then, do you have any of that lasting spray stuff?" Jet asks the Plusle.
"Uhuh, let me go find it." She says wandering off behind the counter, I don't have a clue how larger any larger Pokemon could fit in here, it seems it was made to suit the twins.
We wait a few minutes in silence before the Plusle comes back with some sort of spray bottle, it was entirely green.
"Thank you, how much will it be?" Jet asks the Plusle taking some money out of his bag.
"300 Poke please." The Plusle responds, Jet exchanges his money for the item and he smiles before turning eventually leaving the shop, I notice the Minun watering the wide range of different flowers, he turns towards us and waves a goodbye, Jet returns the wave just before we leave the shop.
We wander around the village for a bit more before Jet heads towards a bench at the side of the path, he climbs on it and sits down.
"Summer, come here, I got something to show you." Jet says looking quite happy.
I jump onto the bench and sit next to him, he scoots a little closer to me and reaches to my head, this makes me flinch slightly but I soon notice he was just grabbing the Gracedia flowers off my head.
"Now, if we take this lasting spray and use it on these flowers..." he says as he takes the spray and uses it on the Gracedia flowers. "They won't wilt!" He exclaims in joy, this makes me blink a few times in confusion just before he reaches over once again and puts the flowers back onto my head. "You wouldn't want them to wilt now, would ya?" He questions me with a cheeky smile, I respond by shaking my head rapidly.
He looks at me intensely before giggling like a little girl, surprising me somewhat.
"What?" I ask looking around, trying to find out what he's giggling at, this just increases his giggling to a higher level.
He eventually stops giggling before saying. "You look so cute when you're confused." This remark caused my face to explode in a red blush, easily visible to anyone around, compared to me, his blush was minuscule, but even with the blush, it didn't look like he said it accidentally, because he still had a little smile and a calmness in his eyes and posture, but if he chose to say it wilfully...
"No need to feel embarrassed, we are good friends after all and I wouldn't change anything about you, no matter what." He says calmly and sweetly. He then proceeded to put an arm around my back and lean on me, making me blush even more, I didn't reject him though as there was a strange warmth to be found, not just his body heat, but his very essence seems to be very warm and gentle and I found it really relaxing. I didn't want to move so I decided to go with it, that was until a couple of Pokemon came up and called us a cute couple, that got the both of us extremely flustered as we panicked slightly and split apart in a rush and to make matters worse, Jet falls off the bench and face plants the ground, he quickly gets up and composes himself.
"We're not a couple, she's just my best friend!" Jet explains quickly, a blush still apparent on his face, I don't know why but I felt very upset the moment he said that. The two Pokemon shrug and wander off, giggling and talking to each other, Jet scratches the back off his head before stretching and turning towards me.
"Now then. THAT was embarrassing..." He says with a far off expression etched on his face, before shaking it off and turning towards me. "Anyway... We should probably head back to Cory's, We need to prepare for the walk to Modasa, that will take us about ten to twelve days without any distractions." He sighs slightly before rubbing his head. "It didn't help that Leon disappeared out of nowhere, I'm sure he will be fine but without him around, I hope nothing pisses Amber off, then things will get dangerous. Talking about Amber, she must be bored, just sitting around, so I am pretty sure it's in our best interests to head back." He says before turning around. "Unless you wish to do something else?" He asks nicely, I respond by shaking my head, I didn't feel like doing much else.
The journey back was uneventful, albeit slightly confusing, with Jet hitting dead ends constantly, but we eventually come into view of Cory's, we start to head there until I look closer and realize that it was on fire... FIRE!
"FIRE! JET!" I scream pointing at the house, he quickly looks over and his face consorts into panic.
"AMBER! WHAT THE FUCK!" He bellows before running off towards the house.
(Jet's POV)
Saying I was angry was an understatement, the moment I get my hands on that lizard I swear I'm gonna kill her. I run towards the house at the greatest pace I could muster, only too see Cory charge out the house, his face consorted with rage.
"I'm going to kill him!" He yells out to the sky, he then notices me and relief washes over his face. "Jet, you have to help us, I don't know how long Amber can hold out, he's after Fey!" He says quickly, I didn't really understand what he was trying to tell me, but at least Amber didn't cause this.
"Who? Who is it? Some merc?" I try to speculate.
"NO NO NO! It's that fucker of a father of mine, Barga!" He yells, I instantly got scared, Barga is not someone you want as an enemy. He was slave labourer, and a cruel one at that, he never cared about Cory at all, proven by the fact he was abandoned in this town. He tries to steal slaves from other country's and takes them to different country's, those that accept slavery, if he was after Fey, then Barga must have something big planned.
"Damn it! Cory, wait for Leon, we're gonna need him to even stand a chance, I will help Amber out." I say about to run off just before Summer appears behind me. "Summer, I'm going to need you to help me, we are about to fight someone more terrifying then anyone we have met before." I say, she looked slightly scared, but it quickly went as she shook her head and nodded. "I always knew you were brave, climb aboard!" I call out, he climbs onto my back and I was about to take off just before Cory hands me something, it was Amber's flame plate.
"Something tells me you're gonna need this." He tells me, I nod a thank you at that and charge off, we needed to reach Amber as quickly as possible, I doubt we could win, even with all of us here, we need Leon now! I doesn't take us long to find them, they were just in the emerald plains, a scorched area covered in flames, and then I saw him, Barga, holding Amber, who was badly beaten, up by her throat,. Barga was a Typhlosion, and a dangerous one at that, not only was he strong, but also very smart, he's been avoiding guilds his entire life.
"So, more have come to join the party?" Barga says facing us, his body was adorned in scars of different kinds, proof that he had been through a lot of battles.
"Go to hell!" Amber yells throwing a punch into his face, at that moment Barga drops her and she jumps back.
"Amber, catch!" I shout throwing her the flame plate. She catches it deftly before facing Barga once again, determination showing on her face, she was never one to give up a battle easily, or at all in-fact.
"A stone tablet of some kind?" Barga mentions looking unimpressed, he leans down and rushes forward with great speed, before launching a fire punch directly at Amber, she copies and does exactly the same thing, both techniques clash against one another, before causing and explosion, forcing both backwards, it was now time for me to get involved, I run.
AN: Play master of puppets by Metallica
"Little bitch." He says through clenched teeth, seething in anger. At this moment I fire a water pulse into his face, hoping to deal some damage, but he looking barely fazed, I use more water pulses, trying to hold him down until Amber gets back into the fray. He then runs towards me and attempts to grab me, I dodge his grab and jump deftly out of his range, he charges towards me while I did so, but I kept my distance, it was time to try a new little trick I learnt, I run towards the sturdiest tree I could see and jump at it, now that I think about it, I need to get this perfectly or I'm coming out of this with some broken bones. I was approaching the tree in mid-air at a rapid pace, I use all my body strength to twist around and my feet hit the tree, leaving a nasty impact, I use all the force from the crash to jump forward, right into Barga, who actually looked surprised, I was moving very quickly at this point so I pull my razor shell off and slash at him, but I was a moment to late, he jump to the right, only obtaining a shallow cut. I land with a crash and roll for a few feet. After I stop, I get up onto my unsteady feet and get back on guard.
"Not bad kid, you actually hit me." Barga says with a cruel smile. He then charges towards me again, I run, and get far away from him again, I then noticed that my I had slowed down a bit, and that there was a dull ache in my legs, I guess hitting a solid object at that speed is going to leave my body in bad shape. I fire more water pulses, each one of which he either dodges or bats aside, this was not good, all I could do was run, if I got caught, I'm done for.
"I'LL CRUSH YOU!" A voice shouts, I notice Amber jump up behind Barga and she launches a massive fire punch at Barga, he turns instantly and blocks it with an arm but the impact sends him skidding back a few meters, leaving massive marks in the ground.
"Not bad, either of you, but you still lack the skill needed to fight with me." He says, launching a fire punch at Amber, I notice here panting on the ground, looks like what Leon said was true, that plate really is tiring to use. It hits her and sends her flying through 2 trees until the last on stops her.
"AMBER!" Summer screams, I watch her fire multiple bullet seeds at Barga's back, they barely seemed to bother him though.
"Not bad power behind the attacks, but you lack skill and brains to get around the type disadvantage." Barga says before firing a massive fire blast at Summer, I look on in horror at the fire blast, much stronger then any normal attack, I run towards Summer as fast as I could, panic and adrenaline pushing my body past it's limits, I couldn't lose her, not now, not ever. I speed up moving faster then I ever have before and fire a water pulse at the fire blast, only that it wasn't a normal water pulse I had a powerful blue and white glow. It wasn't the same in terms of power but it pushed the fire blast off course, just missing Summer by a small margin, my eyes widen as an ear splitting scream reaches my ears. I notice on closer inspection that the attack still left burns on Summer. This made my blood boil and rage scream inside me.
"I'm gonna end you..." I said in a eerie tone, turning towards the confused Typhlosion. I charge at him, roaring in rage this seemed to have caught him off guard as I throw a punch in his face, before he can react I throw a barrage of punches into his face faster then I thought I could move. I carry this on for a good few seconds before he catches my arms, a cruel smile plastered on his face as he aims a fire punch into my face. I react naturally and fire a water gun into the punch, not stopping it but certainly weakening it plenty. This new move is gonna come in handy. His fist hit my face with a weaker impact, but I still felt it.
"Heh, RAZOR SHELL!" I yell aiming for his arm, and again there was a strange glow to it, he let's go once again, only suffering a shallow cut, he was beginning to look less cocky and more worried as I charge towards him, moving at a lightning like speed, again throwing punches at him, only this time the punches seem to be fazing him. Was I getting stronger?
"You're good kid, you don't stand a chance against me but you all have potential as slaves, why not give up now and I will spare you all the pain?" He asks, a mocking smile grows on his face. This was the last straw, I hated this man more then anything, so I charge with everything I have, I launch 2 rock punches into his stomach in rapid succession, forcing him back a step, I then grab my scalchop and whack him on the head with it before wrapping it in a water and slashing at him, aiming straight into his chest... He smiles and uses shadow claw to block it he the proceeds to slice at my body, causing nasty cuts to appear, everything dulls out around me as I collapse.
AN: And stop right there.
I couldn't move, everyone single sound was overtaken by a strange ringing noise. I looked around, everything was slowed, a bright red glow surrounded Barga and Amber, and a very bright and vibrant green glow was on Summer, I could just about make out Summer screaming my name, this jolts me hearing, I could hear once again.
"I would stop that if you value your life." Barga says holding an arm out in front of him, blocking all the bullet seeds, Summer ignored him and jumps forward before using leaf blade straight into his face. Barga wraps the shadows around his claws once again blocking the attack and throwing Summer backwards, she gets up before taking a few steps back, she looked on in horror as he walks towards her.
"How does the despair feel?" He says, reaching to grab her, I use my hand to jump up, everything still moving at a slower pace, Barga slowly turns around as I run towards him, I ready a razor shell, except this time it was different, it was 3 times larger and made of pure aura as I launch the attack at him, he goes for a double shadow claw, attempting to block it, but upon clashing the claws shatter and I slash into his shoulder, I was about to cleave him in half but he grabs the sword, stopping it from cutting his arm clean off. He no longer looked confident, he looked scared, that was until he kicks me into Summer and pulls the blade out of his shoulder, spilling a decent amount of blood onto the ground.
"What was... that." He pants out, his face consorting in agony as he grabs his wounded shoulder. He then looks me dead in the eye, before launching a massive fire blast at me, I was about to dodge it before I noticed Summer behind me. Well, this is gonna fucking hurt.
(Summer's POV)
I looked on in horror as the flames engulfed Jet into a blazing explosion, shooting flames everywhere, a technique like that could have killed him. I start to cry slightly until I notice the flames disappear and Jet standing there unharmed. The rest of the flames die out before Jet collapses onto the ground, Barga looked as surprised as I felt. He soon shook the shock off and faced me, I couldn't do anything against him, I wasn't strong like Amber or quick like Jet, I was just small and weak. I felt like giving up at that moment, that was until a certain voice brought all hope back.
"I'm not in a very good mood today, do you had better give me a good reason for this." Leon says walking into the clearing that had been created from the battle.
"One more has come to join the fray, I'm sorry but I'm going to have to finish you off quickly, this wound is quite painful." Barga says before charging at Leon with a shadow claw.

Leon pulls out his dagger, what had a cyan blue blade and clashed it with the shadow claw, Barge started to claw at him with great speed, but Leon blocked, parried and guarded each one, he then side stepped and attacked back, Barga jumps out of the way before launching a fire blast.
"Reflect." Leon says, creating a massive barrier that flawlessly stopped the attack, he then surrounds Barga in the these barriers, attempting to catch him I assume.
"Think these can stop me?" Barga taunts.
"Of course not, just call them a security measure." Leon says, grinning. Leon proceeds to click his fingers, assembling a multitude of shadow balls inside the barrier, they all smash into Barga, causing him to scream out and the barrier to shatter, but the explosion was contained. Once the smoke cleared up Barga was unsteady on his feet, that attack actually injured him.
"Da-Damn you!" Barga roars, before charging, he launches a fire punch at Leon, but it misses, he quickly turns round and tries the same thing but to no avail. Leon wasn't moving but Barga just couldn't land a hit. He eventually lets up and moves back slowly.
"Wh-Who are you!?" Barga shouts in panic.
"Leon, my name is Leon, that is all you deserve to know. Psychic." Leon says, Barga's eyes widen has he scream and collapses onto the ground, he looks at Leon before getting up.
"I have been avoiding guilds for years, don't even think you have what it takes to change that. EXTREME SPEED!" Barga yells before disappearing, Leon goes after him, leaving me here on my own with an Injured Amber and Jet. I so hope he doesn't take to long.
AN: End it there.
(Leon's POV)
I had him on the run, but with that wound he has I should be able to catch up to him soon, I hope Fey was ok though. Today was going ok until this man decided to injure all my friends, I will make sure he gets what he deserves. I continue to charge through the forest, looking for the Typhlosion and it shouldn't take me long to find him, for heavy, lumbering Pokemon such as Typhlosion's, it takes all 4 limbs to be able to move at such speed and that wounded arm wouldn't be able to support his weight for long at all. I eventually reach a clearing with 3 Pokemon in it.
"You should really give up kid, did you think I didn't have a backup plan?" Barga says, it was only then I noticed the Skarmory holding onto Fey, who looked terrified. "One of my customers is always looking for Mareep, apparently they make loyal slaves, what better then a fresh one?" He remarks cruelly. The situation I was forced into wasn't good, I couldn't defend myself, protect Fey and fight 2 strong Pokemon, this is beginning to look bleak.
An: A lot of songs this chapter, Play against the wind by Stratovarius. :)
"GET THE FUCK OFF MY GIRLFREIND YOU BASTARD!" I heard Cory yell charging right past me, he launches a fire punch into the Skarmory before he could react, he then proceeds to batter it with a barrage of fire based attacks. He eventually stopped when the Skarmory escaped into the sky, covered in burns.
"THUNDER!" Fey yelled at the top of her voice, pummeling the Skarmory with a few million volts of electricity, knocking him out of the sky, lucky for him his fall was broken by a bunch of branches from the tree he fell into, I look at Barga who was facing Cory and Fey, his eyes burning with rage as he charges right at Fey, this seemed to have triggered something in Cory as he blocked his attack.
"You. You're the one who I hate most..." Cory says, rage seeping in his quiet voice, this did little to faze Barga as he punches Cory in the gut, but it barely did anything to him as he grabbed Barga by the throat and forced him back, Barga was being over powered by his own son to everyone's surprise.
"N-No!" Barga says trying to push back, and they got themselves locked in a stand-off, both trying to overpower each other, neither side giving any ground, I focus on Fey, she looked tired after that attack, I really need to get her out of here.
"Fey, we need to leave now, Cory will handle things here." I say helping her up, I was still worried about Cory, how he is standing up to Barga, I doubt I could find that out easily. As I was leading Fey out of the battle zone I hear a scream, I look back only to notice Cory on the floor, three nasty cuts going through his left eye, his face was covered in blood.
"Never pick a fight you caAAAAAAAAARGH!." he screams, Getting cut off as I crush his left leg with a psychic attack, this was very exhausting for me but also very effective, considering he wouldn't be walking for quite some time. He collapses onto the ground, out cold from the pain I'm assuming.
An: And please stop right there, this is a nice sized chapter IMO.
"CORY!" Fey wails in fright as she runs at Cory, helping him up and checking his eye, upon closer inspection it was still bleeding and it had cut into the eye deeply. I use my psychic power to stop the bleeding, but all I could do now was help them back, and I did just that.
The rest of the day went as smoothly as it could have gone, a very strong team from a guild appeared and took away Barga and his accomplice, and handed me a large amount of money, around 25000 Poke, something about a bounty on his head. I carried Cory and Amber back, Summer said she could manage with Jet and she managed quite well, especially considering that apart from me, she is the smallest. I contacted my mother to treat everyone's wounds, Cory and Jet had is worse off the everyone else. Jet was badly burnt, has a very nasty cut and his leg muscles had torn, Amber had some bruises and light fractures, easy for someone of my mothers Caliber to deal with, Summer had some nasty burns that were quickly treated. Cory wasn't so lucky, his left eye was completely ruined and had to be removed, leaving him with pretty much no depth perception and a nasty scar where his eye used to be, but according to him, he didn't care as long as Fey was safe and that she was as me and Fey came out totally uninjured, looks like luck was shinning on us today. Days passed by, Amber and Summer recovered first while Cory was trying to get used to not being able to see as well, not to mention he keeps walking into things. A few more days and Jet woke up, right as rain you would say. Jet seems to possess very good regenerative abilities as he seems to be able to recover from any wounds much faster then normal. After a few more days, I got us all some more supplies and we prepare to head out.
"Jet, please remember, you only recovered a few days ago, please don't push yourself to hard." I say to him as he runs around outside with Summer following after him, he must really hate being bedridden.
"Don't worry about him, he'll be fine, guys tough." Amber says appearing besides me, she isn't wrong about that, Jet certainly has something interesting going on with him, that massive power spike I felt coming from him earlier must be what wounded Barga. I need to study this, it has me intrigued.
"So then, I guess you're going then..." Cory says leaving the house, his skin had recovered slightly but there was a nasty scar where his eye used to be, and it wasn't going to recover, he looked happy enough though.
"Yes, we don't want to impose on you any more then we have done, I wish you a good day, I'm going to get moving, you ready Amber?" I ask Amber who was still standing next to me, she was acting very civil today for some unknown reason.
"Yup, and I need to talk to you about something later." She says before wandering off in the direction of Jet and Summer, I also take off in their direction, saying words of farewell beforehand. It was time to start our journey again.
(Jet's POV)
We had been walking all day, I hid it well but my legs still ached a lot but I wasn't going to throw away this chance, Summer has really come out of her shell once we left the village and had been playing games with me, I was very tired now though.
"Summer, can I rest a bit now? Please?" I ask her pleadingly, she nods and walks beside me as we carry on, Amber and Leon were having a private conversation so we were a decent bit ahead of them.
"Jet?" Summer asks me, blushing slightly, that doesn't bode well for my mental defences, I can feel them crumbling already.
"Yes?" I respond back, hoping for the best, she can be too cute sometimes.
"Um... Uh..." She says shyly before shaking her head, leans up to my face and kisses me on the cheek, everything stopped at that moment, I don't know if it was because of the kiss or the rock I just tripped over, I quickly get up and look at Summer with a very surprised and embarrassed expression. "Thank you... You know, for protecting me." She says before looking away, she certainly chose the most interesting way to possibly say thank you.
"N-No problem." I respond as gently as possible. We continue ahead, many things went through my head at that moment such as Summer was cute, trying to stop thinking Summer was cute, a girl kissed me and that I have decided to go through with my plan, and I so hope it works.
(Meanwhile, at some other location)
(? POV)
Another job... The more I take, the quicker I can leave this nasty, cruel world. I had been called by the person who issues this contract, it was a strangely simple job you the pay was very nice. I had entered the tower where I was supposed to meet the contractor, the tower was pitch black, no different from this world. I continue ahead, unfazed by the darkness but then again, I am the darkness, I am forced to face that reality each passing day as it slowly eats away at me, I hope it won't be much longer. I enter a large room at the very top of the tower, just as dark as the rest of it.
"Welcome." A sinister voice echo's.
I look ahead, sensing a powerful presence. "You called?" I respond, my voice devoid of emotion.
"I did, but are you confident you can handle this job?" the voice asks, mocking me like everyone does.
"Confidence brings downfall, I do the job, you get the cash." I say, staying adamant to my words. The voice laughs.
"Very well, you have the job." The voice says, I turn around to leave, I take this chance to scan over the job once again, it was too simple, it isn't normal that's for sure.
"By the way, I expect great things from you... Courcier." The voice says, my name echo's around the tower for a short amount of time, I ignore it as I head down the stairs I came up, such a high paying job just to capture a female Snivy by the name of Summer, I'm not complaining though, the money is great.
Me: OH MY ARCEUS, I ACTUALLY DID IT!
Amber: Woop de doo, it still took you, like, 2 months.
Jet: Well, half the time he was either away from the pc, very ill or just being plain lazy.
Me: What can I say, procrastination is in my blood.
Leon: Now that you mention it, you haven't been working up to your usual standard, but the chapter has come out well.
Me: Yes, now please stop complaining, at least I didn't abandon it, those sorta people either need really good reasons or they're just plain annoying.
Jet: I get that now, I'm gonna go outside, Summer is playing around, should be fun. (Walks out.)
Amber: And there goes our entertainment, Rat, tell us something interesting.
Me: Oh fine, how about a proper name instead of just Rat, not my real name but a name I chose to take on, call me Firago.
Amber: Ok then almighty Firago, can we get on with the questions?
Me: Fine. Leon, eeveechamp wishes to know how you can run so fast wearing that dress thing all Ralts have.
Leon: A good question with an interesting answer, truth is I don't run, I hover and propel myself along with psychic, this allows good speeds and I don't tire my body out.
Me: Thank you Leon, Now goodbye and keep up to date, not all chapters will take as long as this one, and my writers block is all gone, BYE!
