Day Two- 7:00 A.M.: Arrival in Lumiose City for the first time.
"Whoa. Fuckin' huge city." Alicia said. She and her companions had reached Lumiose City in little time.
"There's a gym here..." Nan commented. "This oughta be good!"
"Don't get ahead of yourself. We don't even know anything about the gym." Flash dead panned. Neither of the boys noticed Alicia slip away...
"Hey! Flash and Nan, right?" The boys blinked as two others approached them.
"Yeah, that's us." Flash nodded. He noticed then that Alicia was gone, but wasn't concerned.
"Where's Alicia?" Nan wondered, not having the same thoughts as Flash. Flash ignored him and looked at the two people.
"What did you want?" Flash asked.
"Professor Sycamore has directions for each of you." The first person said. "We're his assistants."
"He wants to talk to Nan and for Flash to go to a Cafe." The second one said. The two boys exchanged glances, Flash giving Nan a Randy smile for a moment.
"Sounds important, Nan. Might help our journeys." Flash said.
"Yeah, probably." Nan agreed.
"Let's go." Each boy went with an assistant. Peanut scampered over to Flash.
"My narrator sense is telling me I should go with Nan." Flash nodded to the Eevee, and the friends parted ways in Kalos's largest city...
Day Two- 9:00 A.M. Location: Cafe Soleil.
"Sorry it took so long to get you here." The assistant said. "I kinda get lost in this huge place sometimes."
"It's fine." Flash nodded to the assistant. "See you later, I guess." He entered the Cafe.
"Are you Sycamore's kid?" A man asked. He was sitting at a table with a young woman. Flash instantly recognized her and froze.
Diantha. He definitely remembered her. The person that hurt Casey...
No. Peanut had told him that this was an alternate universe. He took a deep breath and nodded.
"Yeah, that's me. And you are?"
"Lysandre." The man said.
"And I'm Diantha." The woman smiled.
"Flash." Flash sat at their table, purposely across from Diantha.
"Diantha and I were just discussing the possibility of eternal beauty." Lysandre said.
"The IMpossibility of it." Diantha replied, causing Lysandre to scowl.
"What do YOU think, Flash?" Lysandre asked.
"Um..." Flash had been staring at Diantha. "I'm not sure, really. It's kind of a strange subject."
"Such a shame..." Lysandre 'tsked'. "I hope you two visit my company some time." He walked out. Diantha and Flash watched him leave.
"So, let's get down to the real business now that he's gone." Diantha said, smiling at Flash.
"...real business?" Flash repeated.
"I'd like to have a practice battle with you." Diantha told him. "One on one."
"Sounds good." Flash called Chespin forward.
"Gardevoir." Diantha called her Pokemon out. Flash physically shivered. This wasn't Embrace...
"Chespin, vine whip!" Flash ordered. Gardevoir instantly froze him with psychic before slamming him with a thunderbolt. Flash immediately wished he had Peanut to fight with.
"Alright, Chespin, um..." Before Flash could finish, the Pokemon used a new move: rollout! He began buffeting Gardevoir. "Did not know he knew that." Flash commented, watching. Unfortunately, Gardevoir quickly finished off Chespin with a moon blast. Flash put on a Randy smile and retrieved Chespin.
"That was fun, but you're still a beginner. I'd like to fight you again sometime." Diantha said. She walked out of the cafe.
"...I want a Gardevoir." Flash said abruptly. He walked out as well.
Day Two- 11:00 A.M. Location: Route 4.
"It's been two hours." Flash deadpanned. He, Chespin, and Fletchling were panting from the number of Pokemon they had to face while looking for a Ralts. A bush rustled and he looked at it half-heartedly. To his surprise, a Ralts appeared.
"Alright, let's go!" Flash ordered Chespin forward. Ralts used growl. Figuring it was low leveled, Flash attempted a capture without damage, and succeeded! He grinned for once.
"Things are starting to go my way..."
Extra data: Ralts- If its horns capture the warm feelings of people or Pokémon, its body warms up slightly.
Day Two- 12:00 P.M. Location: Gate to Route 5 in Lumiose City.
"Took a while, but my team is now of four Pokemon." Flash noted. He glanced around. "I hope the others are okay... What are they doing, anyway?"
