Maggie was now bringing the horse-carriage back to the hotel.

"Too bad Emi isn't here." Akito frowned.

The others frowned to poor Akito, knowing that he would want to ask her to the ball.

Eloise took a look at the time. "Ooh, it's about time to meet Mr. Nye in the lobby!"

Maggie dropped them off with a smile, allowing them to go back into the hotel.


"Who is this 'Mr. Nye' anyway, Eloise?" Ditto asked his new owner.

"Mr. Nye hates to wait," Eloise explained on the way inside. "He's worked for my mother for as long as I can remember and has already had the whooping cough and the measles. Sometimes I give him rubber candy. He's absolutely so dumb, he eats it. Sometimes he brings me presents, whether I deserve it or not. I usually do."

"Cool." Ditto smiled.

Eloise glanced to one table where a man in a suit was sitting, then skipped along to it. "Hello, Mr. Nye." she greeted as she climbed over the small ledge by the table rather than walking around it to get to her chair.

"You're late, Eloise." the man scolded.

"I'm sorry." Eloise replied as she planted her bottom down in the chair as Mr. Nye came behind her and pushed her in the table gently like a gentleman would for his lady friend.

"I wonder what the present's going to be." Ditto smiled.

"Now, we have to have a very serious discussion, okay?" Mr. Nye tried to be patient with the little girl which was not an easy task for many.

"Did you bring the present from my mother?" Eloise asked eagerly. "Or is it maybe from my daddy?"

"Actually I brought two things." Mr. Nye replied as he bent down to pick them out.

"Are they both from Paris or Atlantica?" Eloise asked hopefully.

"Well, one is from Paris," Mr. Nye replied. "The other one is a tad more local, though I never heard of such a place called 'Atlantica'."

"It's an underwater city where mermaids and mermen live," Eloise explained like it was normal. "That's where my daddy lives."

"Right... So, anyway, you do have gifts from both your parents, even though I've never met your father..." Mr. Nye tried to explain.

"So they are from them?" Eloise asked, totally excited.

"Not done yet..." Mr. Nye said sharply as he placed a small pile of paper in front of her. "We have to talk about your hotel charges, Eloise, it's irresponsible to spend this amount of money."

"I'm six." Eloise pouted.

"I know." Mr. Nye replied.

Akito, Estelle, Felicity, Larvitar, Teddy, Vulpix, and Misdreavus decided to stick around and listen in a little more, fearing Eloise might be in trouble.

"I hope she's not in trouble." Teddy said.

"She sounds like she is..." Estelle said as she held her Teddiursa close in her arms.

"Eloise, I've spoken to your mother..." Mr. Nye started.

"Is she having an absolutely wonderful time?" Eloise asked as her eyes lit up to hear more about her wonderful mother who was always away from her only child.

"Yes, but... You have to cut back." Mr. Nye replied strictly, but not as strict as Phillip.

"Uh-Oh, sounds like she really is in trouble." Larvitar said.

The other Pokemon agreed.

"Enough about that," Eloise told the man about telling her to stop spending so much of her mother's money. "Where are my presents?"

"Your presents, I brought them up to your suite, now-" Mr. Nye replied, then tried to get back to the point, but since he brought up the gifts from Eloise's parents, that of course lost her interest and attention quicker than the blink of an eye.

"That girl does not listen when the presents come in." Akito sighed.

"Non, non she does not." Felicity nodded then.

"Why do you bother with her?" Estelle asked her twin brother.

"I ask myself that question every time we visit," Akito said.

"I am never having children..." Felicity lightly groaned.

"Who knows what the future will have for us all?" Misdreavus said.

"Oh, boy..." Felicity sighed.

"Come along, Ditto!" Eloise collected her Pokemon and skipped out of the room.

"ELOISE!" Mr. Nye called for the girl.

"Guys, we have to stop Eloise from making things worse." Akito said.

"Way ahead of ya." Vulpix agreed.

"How can it get worse?" Estelle asked.

Akito sighed before showing them what his vision had shown him. The vision was very dramatic and horrifying to see. Not only were the kids kicked out of the hotel, but Eloise appeared to be homeless now.

"And that's what's going to happen if we don't do something soon." Akito said.

The others glanced at him.

Akito looked back. "I had a vision."

"Well, if you had a vision, then it must be important." Estelle said.

"it was..." Akito said.

"What happened?" Felicity asked.

"We got kicked out of the hotel, Mr. Salamone made us move on the streets, not just us, but Eloise too." Akito explained.

"Oh, dear..." Estelle frowned.

Akito frowned and nodded.

"Then we can't let that happen." Estelle said.

"Exactly." Akito said.

"Then you know what we have to do." Larvitar said.

"We do?" Teddy asked.

"Yes, we have to make sure that Eloise doesn't do anything that might cause something bad to happen." Estelle said.

"Oh, right." Teddy smiled then, gently hitting his moon crescent laced forehead.

"So, then, we better keep up with her." Vulpix said.

"Yes, yes, let's." Misdreavus agreed.


Eloise had a sneaky smirk on her face again after speaking with someone after chatting with Mr. Nye and was now on her way to the elevator.

"Stop that girl!" Larvitar called out.

Max stood in the elevator as always as the kids and Pokemon rushed to catch up with Eloise and Ditto.

"Hey, guys." Eloise greeted her cousins and their Pokemon.

"Eloise, you have to stop doing these things, some of them have consequences." Akito said.

"Stop doing what?" Eloise asked. "I'm just being me, Eloise."

"And what about what Mr. Salamone warned us about?" Akito asked.

"Oh, he's just a worry wart, no need to worry, I'm also gonna be doin' something nice for Nanny, but hush, it's a surprise and a secret." Eloise replied.

"Surprise and secret." Ditto repeated as he latched onto the girl's head.

"That doesn't seem so bad." Teddy smiled.

"Okay, Eloise, what are you up to?" Felicity asked.

"What do you mean?" Eloise's stomach turned at her strict tone.

"You know what she means." Misdreavus said.

"Noooo?" Eloise shrugged.

"Truth Spell?" Eloise asked.

"Didn't we tell you that Daddy's a Wiccan and that makes me and Akito Wiccans." Estelle said.

Eloise tilted her head. "What's a wiccan, do you mean a witch?"

"No, she means Wiccan, which is kind of like a priest that can use magic." Akito said.

"They are rare in some societies." Felicity added.

"Cousin Thorn was one 1/16th on her mother's side." Estelle said from memory.

"Grandpa Patrick's one too." Akito added.

"So either you tell us the truth or else Dad will use a truth spell." Larvitar said.

"Welllll... Okay..." Eloise said. "but you have to promise not to tell Nanny."

The others wondered why, but they promised anyway. Anything to get Eloise to spill the truth out quicker.

"I'm setting up a date for Nanny for the Ball," Eloise explained with a charitable smile. "She deserves happines too. So eventually, Bill will be coming upstairs with a letter from Sir Wilkes to invite Nanny."

"Ohh." The Fudo twins, Felicity, and the Pokemon said, now understanding why she was sneaking off to the elevator.

"Uh-huh..." Eloise smiled and nodded. "But don't tell Nanny! I want her to be surprised!"

"Our lips are sealed." Akito said.

"Good, I knew I could trust you guys." Eloise smiled, then looked up to the elevator valet. "Same goes to you, don't you say a word."

Max silently nodded and kept his eyes forward, never speaking before and never will again.

"Well then, let's go." Teddy smiled.

"Sixteen, please." Eloise said as Ditto nestled into her hair once again.

Max nodded and pushed the top floor button, closing the elevator doors and sending them all straight up into the Penthouse Suite.


"Going up," Estelle smiled. "Nothing can stop us now."

"Unless this contraption stops." Felicity said.

"Shh, we'll be fine, I keep telling you there's nothing to be afraid of." Misdreavus told her trainer.

But then, as if on cue, the elevator seemed to have stopped.

"Huh?" Eloise blinked. "How did that happen?"

Max did not say anything, but he appeared to be worried.

"I think it's time for me to do my hero part." Akito whispered.

The others nodded in agreement. Teddy was crying like a baby since it was now dark and the elevator shaking had scared him. Estelle began to comfort him before looking to her twin brother who then pressed the red button on his futuristic bracelet, putting on his superhero outfit before he flew out the top of it and then flew down to the bottom of it. Larvitar stayed behind since he knew Akito had to do this himself, but would step in if any help was needed.


"All right, what seems to be the problem here?" Akito hummed as he was looking for a control panel.

Once there, he looked to see what was the problem. There were colored wires that were hooked and attached together, but in the bottom row, there appeared to be one set that was cut apart and had electircal sparks frying out from it.

"Uh-Oh, a cut wire." Akito said before grabbing the two wires.

The wires zapped slightly.

"Easy... Easy..." Akito whispered to himself as he tried to be extra careful to not electrocute himself, luckily he was a lot more handy and intelligent than many children his age, so he knew not to mess around.

And where with his invulnerability, he could do this without getting hurt.

Akito stuck his tongue out in concentration as he struggled to pull the wires together. "Come ON!" he growled slightly as they didn't seem to come together at first.

And where he tried to pull them even closer together, without knowing, using his full strength. There was a small zap which shocked Akito only slightly like someone getting pinched with static electricity.

"Dang it, guess I'll have to get this elevator to its destination with a little muscle power." Akito said, rolling up his sleeves.

The wires still sparked and the other ones were shaking slightly and slowly becoming unwired.

"NO!" Akito grabbed onto them, biting his lip. "No, no, no..."

"Dad, is everything okay out there?!" Larvitar asked.

"Uh, it's okay, I got it!" Akito called back reassuringly, but looked slightly nervous. "All right... Now what was that thing Tech said about colored wires?"


Flashback shows Akito with Tech.

"Now remember, Akito, you must always connect the colored wires to the same wire with the same color." Tech told him.

"What happens if you connect different colors?" Akito asked. "Like, let's say, red and blue?"

"Oh, no, no, never do such a thing," the coyote shook his head. "A very bad move."

"Will something blow up?" Akito asked.

"Yes, if you connect any two different colors, it will blow up." Tech said.

"Yikes..." Akito said.

"Don't worry, you're a smart kid, I'm sure if the situation comes up, you'll know exactly what to do." Tech smiled, putting his arm around the boy.

Akito smiled back.

Flashback Ends


Akito then held his head as he looked carefully to the wires and connected them to the right colors as he sweated slightly anxiously, but he knew what to do.

"I know you can do it, Dad." Larvitar whispered.

"I might be a whiz at this, but I am NOT working at the Bomb Defusing Squad when I grow up." Akito said to himself as he worked with the multicolored wires.

Akito knew that he had to work quick before anything else happened. A few of the wires had to go in other places aside than just side-by-side, some had to be twisted all around. Leon began to pray in a different language hoping that everything would be alright. Estelle held Teddy close as he sniffled and whimpered.

"Alright, now just to give this thing a power boost." Akito said.

"Akito, is everything okay up there?" Eloise called.

"Just fine!" Akito called. "I'm almost done, I promise!"

Akito began to use his powers of the forces of the weather to get some electricity back into the elevator. The others fanned themselves slightly since the air had been turend off, but soon, it came back on and the lights flickered briefly before coming all the way on.


"All right, Akito!" Estelle cheered.

Akito flew back into the elevator as it began to move up. The others smiled to him.

"Phew!" Akito wiped his forehead and smiled back to them. "No idea why that happened."

"Must have been a rat or something." Felicity said.

"Probably, what matters is that we can keep going smoothly now." Akito smiled proudly.

Leon looked at Akito, surprised at what he could do. "You are a very incredibly specimen."

"Uh, thanks." Akito said with a small chuckle. "It's no problem."

"You truly are amazing," Leon continued. "How in the world could you do that at your younger age?"

"Well, I have powers and am much smarter than I look." Akito said.

"Fascinating..." Leon felt astounded. "I, uh, better run along... I'll catch up with you guys later?"

"Oh..." Eloise's smile dropped since Leon would be going away for a little while. "Okay... Um, hope to see you at the Ball and remember what I told you."

"Yes, thank you, Eloise." Leon smiled to her, sounding almost like he was falling in love.


"Eloise, I think he might be falling in love with you." Ditto smiled.

"Yes, it should seem so." Eloise smiled.

"And so are you~" Ditto sang.

"What?" Eloise asked.

Leon got off at his floor and waved to his new friends as he went away for now.

"You know what I mean." Ditto smirked playfully.

"Tu es amoureux." Felicity cooed.

"You are in love." Misdreavus translated.

"I-I am not!" Eloise blushed slightly.

"Then why are you blushing?" Akito smirked playfully.

Eloise held her cheeks as they turned as red as her hair bow. "Um... Well..."

Suddenly, the elevator dinged and the door opened to show they had made it up to the sixteenth floor.

"Oh, look, we're here, come on, guys!" Eloise said quickly as she ran out, avoiding conversation.

"She's so in love." Estelle smirked playfully.

"Oh, yeah." Akito nodded, agreeing with his sister.

"If anyone's in love, it was obviously Phillip in the lobby when I asked him for a favor." Eloise said before they went into the room.

"Uh-huh, sure." Larvitar smirked.

"He did seem to enjoy Mrs. Daniel's daughter's company, but don't deny it, Ellie." Ditto purred.

"Who's side are you?" Eloise glanced at her Pokemon as they went inside the room then.
