The next morning when I got up, I yawned, stretched and looked over to see that Matt wasn't there on the love seat.
"Where did he...?" I started to wonder, looking around the pokemon center and still not finding him.
"Mommy, I think he's out having a smoke," Oshy said softly, noticing my slight worry.
"Oh, right...I forgot he did that," I murmured, walking outside, my team at my heels.
Once outside, I looked around the pokemon center and I still couldn't find him. I sighed, but went on and headed to Chargestone cave anyway. I didn't feel like wasting too much time, anyway he could catch up. I walked into the cave and saw a trio of men in all black with white masks and white wigs.
"Come with us," one of them said, as the other two stood at my sides.
"Hm?" I wondered, remembering that voice, but I couldn't place it.
They walked me over to N and bowed. Then they disappeared.
"Roshish, I see you've made it this...*punch!* What the hell!?" N cried, as he hated being interrupted.
"That's for the god damn ferris wheel you bitch!" I growled out, remembering him.
"At least you know it's me," N stated, holding his bloody nose.
"Move or I'll pound you into the ground," I growled out, nails sharpening lightly, eyes narrowing, voice growing a bit more animalistic and a black aura surrounding me.
"Fine, but this was all Ghetsis' idea, not mine. There are more plasma grunts here waiting for your battle with them, see you later," N muttered, leaving me in the cave.
"Douche," I muttered, going back to normal and headed on in the cave. I paused and looked over at Blaire. "This is your place, you catch one." handing her a ball.
"All right. I won't disappoint ya," Blaire said, and tromped off. Moments later she came back as the ball went to my PC.
"And?" I asked, as she stood by me again.
"'is name be Gaven and 'e's a Joltik," Blaire told me, a small smile on her features.
"Good job," I muttered, as we headed off to train. As we trained, Radora just sat down.
"Hm?" I said, looking behind me to see Radora glowing. Once Radora finished evolving I smirked.
"Oi! I'm a lot bigger now ey?" Radora stated, looking at himself.
"Damn dog! You got chubby," Singe laughed, getting a smack from Oshy.
"Now the only one who 'as ta evolve for the last time is Oshy," Blaire said, everyone looking at Oshy.
"Let's get moving, plasma bitches are here, let's kick their asses," I muttered, walking further into the cave. So we explored the cave and trained more as we kicked team plasma's asses. As we got further along I noticed N near the exit, but what caught my eye was the trail of cigarette smoke leaving the cave.
"Mommy, that's.." Oshy started but I was already nodding and walking after him.
"'Ey the green haired one wants ta fight you," Blaire said as N walked in front of me.
"You're Zebstrika is right. I want a battle," N responded.
"First can I ask you some things," I stated, getting his attention, "One, the Shadow Triad, they seem to be very familiar and two, do you really want another punch to the face?"
"The Shadow Triad is a group of three men that Ghetsis hired and saved. They owe him their lives and no I don't want a punch to the face," N replied, moving a step out of my way.
"Good, and thanks," I said, walking around him and leaving the cave in a bit of a hurry. Once out I looked around to try to find him. But I couldn't see him anywhere. Then a man and a pretty woman walked over talking.
"And my daughter was like 'No way! I must investigate!' Hm?" the guy finished then noticed me. "You!"
"Hm?" I looked over at him with a raised brow.
"My daughter gave you that pokedex, I can tell," he said as the woman stood back a bit in confusion.
"Hm," I shrugged it off and went to move on.
"Hold on! I must see your pokedex for a moment," he said, swiping my dex.
"Hey!" Singe yelled, getting mad that he could do what he wanted.
"There, I just upgraded you pokedex. My name's Cedric," Cedric said handing me my dex back.
"Eh," was all I said as I walked into the pokemon center. Once in I walked over to the couch and looked around, and saw Matt there on the love seat.
"Where were you?" I asked casually as I sat on the couch.
"Hm. Oh, I decided to get a head start on you that's all," Matt replied, getting a punch in the face from me.
"You could have left a note or told me beforehand! Why didn't you wait for me! I was worried," I yelled, mumbling the last part.
"I'm sorry, I just thought that I could get to the Celestial tower first before they stopped burying the dead for free," Matt said sadly.
"Oh...I'm so sorry, I didn't..." I muttered, feeling bad now.
"Damn straight you didn't know! You should ask people these things first before punching them! You have no idea what we went through!" Bacon yelled at me, not caring about how I felt.
"Bacon," Matt sighed, letting out a puff of smoke.
"No! I'm tired of you letting her do whatever she wants and not get any consequences for it!" Bacon yelled, my eyes tearing up. I knew Bacon was right, I do act before I think, but I've slowed that down a little bit.
"Bacon," Matt said a bit louder, seeing my eyes water.
"What?" Bacon growled out, then saw me run out of the pokemon center crying as my team stood there glaring Bacon down.
"Thanks. Now the one person I do really like just ran off. You feel better you stupid fire boar?" Matt growled, letting his cigarette smoke hover just in Bacon's face.
"FUCK! I just fucked things up for them didn't I?" Bacon asked my team once Matt left. Oshy nodded, still glaring at him.
I sat in front of Celestial tower and cried, feeling like shit because Bacon was right. I did do things without thinking all the way through first. It was only one of my downfalls. But I should have asked Matt about that before giving him a new bruised eye. I didn't know what to do, let alone know what to feel.
"Hey," Matt whispered, putting an arm around me.
"I'm so sorry. I didn't mean to punch you before learning that you went through so much," I muttered, wanting to get that off my chest at least.
"It's ok. It is kinda my fault though. I didn't let you know where I was going before actually leaving. Though, it is kinda nice to know that you were worried for me," Matt said, a small smile on his lips.
"Hm, I thought you would. I...I know this may be inappropriate to ask now, because of everything that has happened so far but...will you..." I started, but was cut short.
"Don't ask that yet. Not right now, it's not a good time. I'll...meet you back at the pokemon center later," Matt said, hushing me just as Bacon walked up.
"I figured you would be out here, so I came over," Bacon said, looking up at Matt.
"Let's go put them to rest," Matt whispered, looking down at the urns of his departed. Bacon just nodded and they walked into the tower. I sighed and went back to the pokemon center and laid on the couch, trying to fall asleep instantly.
"Mommy, are you feeling better?" Oshy asked lightly, looking worried.
"I'll be fine, let's just rest up for tomorrow. We have to go to the Celestial tower to meet that woman from before," I muttered, drifting off to sleep. Oshy nodded and everyone went to sleep.
