Char's Days in Nido City
By: Alpha29King
Ch. 2: Welcome to the neighborhood
Char was the first one to wake up the next morning and went downstairs to the kitchen. She thought of what to make her family for breakfast and decided to make Custap Berry pancakes. When she checked the fridge for ingredient, Char noticed that she needed to go grocery shopping and soon. Char got her materials and went to pantry for the flour. She was surprised at how almost empty the pantry was. 'Okay, that's it, I need to go shopping today,' she thought and started to make the pancakes.
Knight came into and surprised her by hugging her waist from behind her and asked, "What are you doing, honey?"
"I'm making Custap Berry pancakes for breakfast," answered Char, "Oh, and we need to go grocery shopping today."
Knight just smiled, kissed her cheek and went to do last night's dishes. When he was finished, his wife asked him to wake up the kids so they can eat breakfast.
The little ones came to the dining room with their father right behind while carrying Bianca and Dorothy playfully. They all sat and ate. After breakfast, the kids went to their rooms and did their individual things. In the kitchen, Char and Knight doing the dishes from breakfast.
"So what do we need from the grocery store," Knight asked.
Char answered, "Basically, everything."
The doorbell rang and Char went to see who it was. She opened the door and saw a Lucario, a Lopunny, a Buneary, and a Riolu. "Can I help you?" asked Char.
The Lucario answered, "Sorry for disturbing your morning ma'am, we're your neighbors. We just wanted to welcome you the neighborhood. My name is Silver and this is my wife."
"The name is Mage," said the Lopunny, "okay kids, introduce yourselves."
The Buneary introduced herself, "My name's Coco."
"My name ish Aawon," said the little Riolu, Aaron.
Gallade came to the door and said hello. He then yelled to the kids to come downstairs and say hello to their neighbors. They came down and introduced themselves to Silver and his family. Char invited them inside and they accepted. Coco went to play with Juliet, Bianca, and Dorothy, while Aaron went and played with Roger and Arthur. Char and Mage went to the kitchen, while Knight and Silver stayed in the living room.
Silver was the one to break the ice, "So, what brings you to Nido City?"
"I asked for a transfer from Psychic Town PD, plus our little apartment wasn't enough for us," explained Knight.
"So you're a cop, eh. So am I. My rank is Lieutenant, what's your rank?"
"I'm just a rookie. Want some brandy, Lieutenant Silver?"
"Sure, if you're offering, rookie!"
Knight went to his liquor cabinet, got two crystal glasses, and poured the brandy in them. He walked back the armchairs handed Silver a glass.
"No ice, Knight?"
"This brand of brandy doesn't need ice. It comes from Artic Cliff, so it is cold on its own. Plus it has a hint of mint and Cheri Berry."
"Cool and spicy."
Knight just nodded and looked in the direction of the kitchen and said, "Looks like our wives are getting along."
Wife talk…
In the kitchen, Char and Mage were chatting up a storm. Char then sighed.
"What's wrong Char?" asked Mage worried.
"Nothing much, it's just that we just moved here and I need to go grocery shopping since our fridge and pantry are basically empty," answered Char.
"Don't you worry I'll show where the grocery store, ok."
"Yeah, ok."
"Good, go ask your husband for money, and we'll go."
Both of them left the kitchen. Char asked to borrow some money.
"What for?" Knight just asked sweetly
"Mage is going to accompany me to the grocery store, since she knows where it is and I need to buy a lot of them."
"Okay, here are ten-thousand Pokebucks and the car keys."
Silver also gave his wife money, "Here's eight-thousand Pokebucks, buy some oatmeal, the cranberry kind."
"Sure."
With that, Char and Mage got into the Knight's SUV and drove off.
Girl talk…
Upstairs, the girls were in Juliet's room talking about life in the city. Juliet was brushing was brushing Dorothy's hair and Bianca was trying on Juliet's gloves while Coco was telling them about Nidoria Academy. The place sounded pretty nice.
"The teachers are super nice and so is the principal. The nurse is sweet and very kind. The lunch ladies are great, oh, and the janitors too. Most of the high schoolers are cool, but the rest are big, dumb meanies. Mrs. Verity, the Kindergarten teacher is the favorite among the students," explained Coco.
"Do you know the second grade teacher?"
"Yes. Yes I do. Her name is Ms. Reba."
"Nice."
"Nice," repeated the twins.
Boy talk…
The boys were in Arthur's room talking about rock music, cars, sports, and video games. Arthur was practicing his bass with the amp down low. Roger and Aaron were playing a racing game. Roger was winning when Aaron pulled an amazing comeback and won the race.
Aaron then said, "I wanna be a racecar driver when I grow up."
Arthur raised his head and said, "I want to be a rockstar and be famous."
Roger smiled and added, "To be an action movie star."
Right then they all started laughing 'til they couldn't breath.

Psychic Town-An all-psychic town eighty-two miles west of Nido City. Non-psychic types aren't allowed to live there. The citizens are stuck-up and suck-ups. Good thing Knight got his family out of there before they all started acting like douche-bags.
Artic Cliffs-A large town at the most northern part of Amkkoro. A former all-ice town. The Pokemon are very open to the outside. A popular brand of brandy is produced here and sold all across the country. What makes it special, is that no matter how hot it may be, it stays ice cold. They also mix in mint and freshly squeezed Cheri Berry juice, making it cool and with a kick.
Note: I'll try to give Char's family and Silver's family proper last names. It isn't easy to do. It's like trying to come up with cute and cool nicknames that are appropriate for your Pokemon in the game without using twice. Maybe I'll give all of the characters last names, we'll see.
