Hello readers!
So...um...I learned a lesson today..don't rub your eyes if you think you have sand on them...I might have scarred my eye...and it hurts...
Regardless, I am here to give you all a new chapter!
I know this one's a little longer than normal, but I just reviewed a few things from last chapter.
"The one and only," I bowed, giggling.
"Hilda. Why are you here in Kanto?" N asked, looking oddly towards me.
"I came to look for you of course!" I beamed.
"You shouldn't have come here." He said firmly. I lost the smile.
"Why not?" I snapped, confused, and worried.
"Because it's too dangerous!" N yelled, then had a coughing fit. My eyes widened.
"N!" Leaf began to panic. As for me, I could hardly breathe. What happened to N? Why was he even like this?
"Blue get a nurse!" I ordered once I could talk again. Blue charged out of the room, cupping his mouth as though to shout.
"Nurse!" he called. With no response, he shouted louder, "NURSE!"
N began to cough louder. I felt my heart beating like a heavy drum.
"N, what do you need?" I asked, panicked. The coughs continued, and N's face turned a deep red.
Just then Blue ran in with a nurse. At the sight of N, her face turned to that of shock.
"What can we do?" I questioned. The nurse frowned at me.
"Nothing….." she replied, backing away.
"What?!" Leaf and I both exclaimed in unison. I couldn't believe what I was hearing.
"There is nothing we can do for him." The nurse said again, backing away a little further.
"That is the most stupid thing I had ever heard!" Leaf exclaimed.
"Yeah! What she said!" I added, with a strong hint of anger.
N's body began to turn limp, and the coughing began to lessen.
"Do something!" Leaf shouted at the nurse, becoming annoyed with her antics.
"I've told you already there is nothing we can do for him!" She cried. "Besides it's not like he would ever survive in this condition." She immediately covered her mouth with her hand rushed out the room.
"What?!" Leaf gasped.
I looked at the door, my mind swirling with thoughts, none of which good. Immediately I hugged N as tightly as I could. The coughs subsided and he hunched over.
"The one time I thought I finally found you…." I sobbed, "but I'm actually more and more losing you…"
Leaf looked away. "You know she's right. Don't you?"
Although Leaf's face was completely blank and showed no emotion, tears slowly rolled down her face.
"Excuse me. Oh, I'm sorry." A doctor walked in, looking at all of us. "But, eh hem, Miss White, Mister Blue, the patient Layla is awake."
Blue looked over at me with an 'I told you so' grin.
I sat up slowly, looking at N. "Will you be ok for a few minutes?"
I nodded, "I will be right here when you come back."
I looked at N for a while, before walking out of the room. The doctor led us into another room, where Layla sat on a wheel chair.
"Layla," I sobbed, hugging her. "Are you okay?"
"I'm sorry I worried you, White. And I'm sorry I didn't listen, Blue", Layla said calmly. "White, don't worry. I'm fine. I can't say the same for you. You look terrible! What happened?"
I let go of her for a moment, and stared into her curious expression. "Do you remember that boy, the one with green hair-"
"You actually saw him?" Layla interrupted. I nodded. "That's great!" Layla smiled at me, but I couldn't smile back. I looked over at Blue, with a 'help me' expression.
"He's dying, Layla," Blue said, leaning over the door frame.
"Oh," Layla replied, "I'm sorry White."
The doctor walked over to us, clipboard in hand. "Alright. Layla has fractured her left leg, and has badly bruised the right one. We've supplied the prescriptions to heal the cuts and bruises, and the other leg will take some time to heal. In the meantime, I expect you to stay in the wheel chair, Layla, and don't do anything reckless. Come back here in about a week, and we'll check on your progress. Otherwise, that should be it. You are free to leave, Layla."
"Thankyou, sir," I smiled, taking the handles of Layla's wheelchair and pushing them outside. Blue followed me, and we walked until we heard the sounds of arguing nearby.
Once we were close enough to see what was happening, my shock grew more and more. Was I seeing things, or was I facing team plasma and N arguing?
"N!" I cried, running over.
"Oh, look who it is!" One of the Plasma grunts snickered. "If it isn't Miss Hilda herself. All the way out here in Kanto!"
"Leave her alone," N growled. He looked angry, but behind that I could see he was in pain. I frowned.
"Shut up!" the grunt held out a gun. In surprise I backed up, hands in the air.
"Listen, you let us go. Or Ghetsis will be hearing about this." N said calmly.
"Oh really, how you going to tell him, huh?" another grunt laughed. "He hates you. He disowned you!" The other officers laughed.
"Oh look the daddy's boy is gonna cry! Awww! Isn't that the cutest thing?!" One officer mocked.
"Shut up!" N shouted, although not fully angry.
"Look, he just wants his daddy!"
"I said shut up!" N seemed angrier. Oh no…they knew he was sick and by mocking him they were just weakening him…
"He's so cute!"
"I SAID SHUT UP!" N shouted, releasing Zekrom from his pokeball. Everyone looked in surprise as he climbed atop his friend and flew out into the distance.
"N," I whispered. I hope he would be alright.
One of the men cursed under his breath. Looking closely, I could see he looked very familiar.
"YOU FOOLS!" he shouted at the rest. "Ghetsis required N and Zekrom, and both just escaped! You've left this plan for failure, and by now Rosa is probably attacking the Plasma Frigate!"
My heart skipped a beat. "Rosa?" I asked in shock. The man turned around, and by now I was sure of it. This was Zinzolin, one of the Seven Sages.
Zinzolin smiled wickedly. "Oh, Hilda. I'd forgotten you were here. Incidentally, do you still have Reshiram with you?"
"Why?" I asked, trying to keep calm.
"Don't fool with me, girl. Give me Reshiram, and we won't harm poor Rosa. She is, after all, in OUR ship, and could easily be taken down and destroyed at my command." Zinzolin pulled out a walkie talkie.
"I…I don't have him with me," I stuttered. This was true. Reshiram was with my mother, back in Unova.
"Hilda, are you going to gamble with poor Rosa's life? That's not like you at all. Or do you doubt our power?" Zinzolin pulled out a photo card, and handed it to me. I looked at the pictures with shock. The photos were of Opelucid city, Nimbasa City, and Nuvema town, all encased in ice. But winter wasn't for months!
"What have you done?!" I cried, dropping the photos. Zinzolin laughed.
"Do you doubt our power now?" Zinzolin asked. I looked at him silently.
"I…don't have Reshiram…" I repeated in defreat.
Zinzolin turned back to his officers. "I think Hilda's being honest, she's scared to death as it is. So, we need to search for Reshiram. You two!" he barked, pointing at two grunts. "You are to enter the Plasma frigate and defeat Rosa in a battle. See if she has Reshiram. As for the rest of you, attack Nuvema town. Search every home and retrieve the pokemon. You have my permission to take down anyone who stands in your way."
"NO!" I shouted. Zinzolin laughed, snapping his fingers. The Shadow Triad appeared, and in a flash of light all of team Plasma was gone from my sight.
"Oh no," I mumbled, falling to my knees. Blue walked over to me.
"I'll help you," Blue said, "but you have to explain what just happened."
I shook my head. "This is my fault. You aren't going to risk anything for me. I want you to take Layla back to Saffron, under watch of her family. She is not to leave the house unless given permission by the doctor. Neither of you are to come after me. I have to go back to Unova."
"What?!" Layla rolled over. "You're joking. You can't just leave! We're a team, you said it yourself. I'm coming with you."
"Not in that condition," I refused.
"White, what's going on?" Blue pressed. I took a deep breath.
"Rosa is my little sister. This year she headed off for her journey. In my and N's absence, team Plasma, an organization who had sought to take over Unova and failed two years ago, supposedly was reborn. I think they're after Unova again, and this time, my sister has caught herself in the mess. They're more savage than before. They could and probably would hurt or kill any meddlers. I'm going to stop them once and for all." Before either two could say another word, I left.
I ran out of the hospital, in search of the airport, Once found, I charged in demanding a plane for Unova.
"I'm sorry miss," the lady at the head desk said. "The next flight for Unova won't be taking off until next week."
"No," I said angrily. "I'll do anything! I need to get to Unova, and I need to get there now. I have no exceptions."
"I can help you with that," a voice said. Sabrina walked over to me.
"Sabrina! What are you doing here?"
"I heard about Layla, and came running. She told me you needed help. So here I am. Now, you need to get to Unova? No problem. Alakazam knows teleport. He can help you!"
"Sabrina!" the lady said. "Quiet down! We'll lose costumers if you suggest this loudly."
Sabrina shrugged and sent out Alakazam.
"Thankyou," I whispered.
"No problem. Alakazam, teleport!"
