Okay, this episode is gonna be a bit interesting with the focus on Luchia and will have a direct lead-in to the story arc that will be happening next.
Luchia sighed, as she walked through Saffron City with only Sylveon and Lucario by her side. She was still a little out of it from Lucario's evolution from Riolu and wanted some alone time, to chat with her two self-proclaimed starters. Considering how young both her starting Pokemon were and Lucario was found very early, she had just decided they were both her starters. She had left her other 5 in the Pokemon Center with Nurse Joy, who was very willing to help the girl.
She walked slightly out of a city and sat down by a tree, her knees drawn to her chin. Sylveon came and sat next to her, frowning as she wrapped one of her feelers around her trainer's arm. ''Mommy, come on. We know your upset about us no longer being babies, but you can't think of it that way. We'll always be your children and we love you none-the-less. Even Auntie Gyarados loves you and she's more your sister then child.''
''Still...You evolving made me happy, you comforted me and I loved that you evolved into the evolution that I felt the most safe with at the time...but, when Lucario evolved...'' She looked at her Fighting/Steel type Pokemon. ''My heart just sank...Riolu didn't evolve quickly, I knew he needed friendship. But...your no longer the little baby that I carried on my shoulder!'' She whimpered, placing her head into her hands and sobbing slightly.
Lucario frowned and went to sit next to the person that he considered his mother. ''Mommy, I evolved because I thought it would make you happy. That I'm bigger and more capable. Mommy, I can protect you like I always wished. I can battle alongside Big sis Sylveon and the others. Being the last of your starting 4 to evolve, it was a bit saddening as I thought that you didn't love me enough to build the friendship to evolve...''
''Lucario...'' Luchia whispered, tears rolling down her cheek. ''I'm sorry that I ever made you feel that way. I love you, all 7 of you. My 6 babies and my 'onee-chan'. I don't want to ever be separated from any of you.'' She hugged Lucario and Sylveon close to her ''I've just been a bit upset for a while. I'll be fine. A mother has to be able to let her babies grow and flourish. Maybe the reason I haven't accepted that fully is because I'm not prepared to be a trainer like Ash and Cynthia or even a gym leader like Misty, Brock and Sabrina.''
''There you are.'' came a relieved voice. Luchia looked up to Sabrina, looking down at her with semi-cold eyes. ''Your sister and girlfriend are waiting for you. They sent me to look for you.''
''But why you, Sabrina? Why didn't Misty come look for me? She's my girlfriend, after all.'' blinked Luchia, uncertain. She internally knew why Misty didn't come look for her. 'I think I offended her or hurt her feelings when we arrived...I shouldn't have said that...it basically implied that she didn't care if her Pokemon evolved...or not. It also implied she didn't love them as a parental figure...'
''Luchia, look at me...'' said Sabrina, causing the girl to look up at her. ''I know this might sound a bit wrong, but you know that I am a psychic and thus I can read mines, but a lot of the time my powers do it without asking...''
''So you heard what I just thought...'' When she got a nod, Luchia sighed with teary ears. ''What do I do...I wish that I had never even said what I did when I arrived in this town. Lucario had just evolved and I basically insulted her choice in Pokemon by basically claiming she also choose Pokemon that couldn't evolve so she didn't have to suffer about them evolving...''
''There's not much you can do.'' said Sabrina, as she sat down next to the girl. ''Nobody has bad choices in Pokemon. Misty is just a water-type gym leader, so a lot of her Pokemon were evolved before you met her and some water types like Corsola and Basculin just can't evolve as of what we know. Being the biggest type, there are a lot of Pokemon that seemly cannot evolve in it.''
''I know...'' whispered Luchia, sighing. ''Your being quite nice right now, Sabrina. Even though you seemed so cold at first.'' She gave a small smile that was tinted by a slight blush.
Sabrina nervously chuckled. ''Yeah, I guess. It's thanks to you.'' She softly blushed, looking away from the younger girl. ''You brought me and Kokoro back together, something that neither of us were willing to accept. Me, because I feared the power that Kokoro had and Kokoro, because she didn't want somebody strict as myself holding her back from beating trainers. What you said to us yesterday brought us back together, by basically saying that we can control our power and that we can be stronger together then as separate people.''
Luchia smiled. ''Well, I'm glad that I could help.'' She then looked down, turning her smile upside down. ''It feels like I'm only good when others want me. I'm useless, used to be scared of Pokemon, still am to an extent. I can't battle well and I fear my own Pokemon evolving from my babies...I must sound pathetic to you, don't I.'' She was about to get up and walk away. She pushed her hair away from the black star mark on her forehead, tearing up. ''Plus, my powers are too dangerous...I shouldn't be around others, all I end up doing is pain..''
''Maybe that's the case, but only if you see it as that. Do your friends and family see you as a burden, no. So you shouldn't consider yourself one.'' Sabrina replied, in a quite emotion littered voice, even tho her face showed no emotion. ''I don't consider you a burden either. I personally think your a cute, friendly young girl, who loves her Pokemon as her own children. And for the record, your not useless. Luchia, I know about your powers of aura and I know that your a StellaLuna descendant. But those powers are apart of who you are. They make you strong and able to save your friends when you get separated. Like with your beloved Charmeleon, she could have died if you weren't for you, remember that as deadly as those powers can be, they bring good as well.''
''Thank you, Sabrina...'' whispered Luchia, as Sabrina smiled and gently pulled her into a hug. The blush on her face was quite noticeable as she said. ''I may not have known you for long, but your already becoming a great deal of support, just like Mist...''
''Glad to help.'' whispered Sabrina as she kissed the younger girl's forehead in a comforting manner.
But not to far away, the girls didn't realize that they were being watched. A small trail of orange-red hair hung behind a tree. Behind this tree was Misty, who was looking quite confused and almost angry at the scene laid out before her. She had come to see what was taking so long and found her girlfriend, her girlfriend!, in another girl's arms, and saw Sabrina kiss Luchia's forehead.
Misty shook her head rapidly, not wanting to believe what she was seeing. But deep down, and rising up, she knew that it was true and not a dream that she was witnessing before her. She had to admit it, she was quite afraid that maybe Luchia had gotten bored of you and didn't want to be her girlfriend. She whispered, voice dripping with jealousy and melancholy, the only other time coming close to this much sadness was when she left Azurill with her sisters. ''Luchia...?'' Just after saying that, her phone buzzed in her pocket. She clicked yes and opened it to her ear. ''Yes...''
