Me: And we're back! With a longer chapter this time!

Lyfa: Not much difference though.

Me: Ugh, whatever Lyfa! Anyway, I'll be introducing two OCs in this chapter! Silverdragon98 and Fenikkusumaru's OCs!

Lyfa: Interesting that people even read this.

Me: Interesting that you're even in this.

Lyfa: Well, you've got no other OC so far, right?

Me: ...

Lyfa: Disclaimer : Mai doesn't own anything related to Pokemon, she only owns her OCs and the plot. You don't want to keep the readers waiting the whole day, do you? Furthermore, you get so little reviews because of these long author's notes.

Me: Y-Yeah... rolling... and I guess you won't be calling me Alice anytime soon, Lyfa.

Lyfa: Mmhmm.

Pokemon Chronicles : Revenge Cycle

Chapter 2 : The meetings

"So this is Accumula Town, huh? Not that big of a place," I muttered just enough for only Tsu, my partner Tsutarja, to hear. She nodded, eyeing the town as did I.

'How odd. I thought this town would be flooded with people,' I thought, looking at the somewhat remote shops alongside the path Tsu and I were walking on, 'Maybe this wasn't the town that sister told me about...'

I felt a sudden tug at the end of my jeans and unconsciously jumped. I quickly snapped my head down only to sigh in relief as I saw Tsu tugging excitedly.

"Tsuta, Tsutarja!" She pointed at a green-colored building at the bottom left of the path we had been taking, and I noticed that it kind of stood out from the rest of the plain buildings.

Quirking an eyebrow, I asked Tsu, "Oh, you want us to check out that building over there?" Tsu nodded excitedly and rushed me over.

"W-What's with the big rush Tsu?" I yelled at my partner, panting hard as we came to a stop in front of the said building. Tsu frowned and sadly began apologizing... I think she was because I can never understand Pokemon language fully.

"S-Sorry.." I mumbled, "I shouldn't have yelled." Tsu shook her head and smiled, pointing at a machine inside the odd building.

I cautiously walked inside, and all that greeted me was a gush of cold air. Shivering slightly, I looked around. There was a suspicious looking door, but neither I nor Tsu gave much attention to it. Instead, we focused our attention to the machine in front of us.

Realization hit me. "Oh, I know what this machine is!" I snapped my fingers, grinning. Tsu tilted her head, expecting me to explain.

"It's-"

"That machine is for searching trainer's info. You can only search info on trainers that want to compete here. Here, as in the Battle Club," I turned around and came face-to-face with a guy around my age. He had messy brown hair and blue eyes.

'His eyes remind me of my sister,' I smirked slightly at the thought. He smiled warmly at me and waved.

"Who exactly are you?" I asked, slightly irritated that he interrupted me.

"Kurogasa. Kurogasa Kururugi," his smile widened, "Sorry that I interrupted you. I just thought you were a bit lost and since you were just standing there... I kind of... pitied you, if you put it into words,"

I growled angrily, showing my fist to the guy in front of me.

"Say that again and I'll break your body into half!"

He put up his hands innocently, "I told you I'm sorry! Honest!" He smiled at me again, making me suspicious.

"You sure there's no hidden motif?" I squinted cautiously at Kurogasa and Tsu just stared curiously. He gulped and nodded. 'Looks earnest enough,'

Sighing, I just turned back to the machine at hand and started searching up a few trainers' info's.

"Wait, you're not going to introduce yourself? That's unfair," I rolled my eyes and faced the brunette behind me yet again.

"Lyfa Cascade. Fifteen. Nuvema Town. Now if you'll excuse me, I've got some important business to attend to," I said in a sentence and continued searching.

"...Well okay then, bye Lyfa." I huffed in relief. Finally some peace.

I looked down at my partner and picked her up, "Tsu, could you help me using your intuition and find a good trainer to battle with?" She nodded, chirping her name a few times and then concentrated on the screen in front of her.

The first trainer looked awfully weird and didn't seem like a challenge to us. The next trainer looked too creepy and slightly... perverse so we didn't go with that either. The third was the worse. It was some spoiled rich kid that looked too fancy in the photo.

I shook my head. I know we shouldn't judge a book by its cover but there's really no helping it.

An idea formed in my mind. "Hey Tsu," I called to my partner who was staring blankly at the screen in front of us, "Here's an idea. How about we go catch us a friend first before we start battling other trainers?"

Snapping out of her trance, she nodded eagerly at me in which I smiled to. I strolled out of the building and into a nearby forest.

I gasped at the sight of so many wild Pokemon in the forest, even though I don't know their names. They were all so carefree like they don't have a care in the world, unlike me.

My thoughts darkened as I remembered my oath for revenge. "Tsutarja!" I blinked and looked at my partner who was semi-glaring at me.

Sheepishly, I ribbed the back of my head and laughed lightly. "Oh sorry Tsu. My thoughts darkened for a moment there. It won't happen again, I assure you!" Tsu nodded and strictly crossed her arms.

"You know Tsu..." she looked at me curiously, "I think you're the first friend I ever had in my life." I giggled a little at the bewildered expression on her face.

"Yeah, believe it. I never had friends up 'till now," I explained, "Even though I was pretty popular in kindergarten, I never really talked to girls much. As for boys, I pretty much avoided them, considering how awful they are," Tsu nodded, taking in my words.

A movement in the trees soon caught my attention. Facing upwards, I saw a grey, pigeon-like Pokemon landing on a tree branch eating a Pecha Berry.

"Wonder what that is," I asked nobody in particular, whipping out my Pokedex that was somehow stashed deep inside my sling bag.

"Mamepato, the TinyPigeonPokemon. Though it listens to its Trainer's instructions, its nature means it doesn't always understand them.A Pokemon that lives in urban areas. It loves company so many of them gather in parks and plazas. They can sometimes be found in forests." My Pokedex said in a robotic voice.

"Tsu," I grinned, "Time to catch you a friend! Help me battle it, will you?"

"Tsuta!" Tsu jumped onto the branch and without my command, gave it a frightening Leer.

"P-Pato!" The Mamepato cried in fear, flapping its wings before falling to the ground. It was definitely not expecting an attack.

"Tsu!" I scolded and I saw her wince, "Don't use an attack before I say so!" she nodded and jumped to the ground, landing near the shocked Mamepato.

Checking my Pokedex, I scanned it for the moves Tsu could currently use. "Only Tackle, Leer and Vine Whip, huh?" I mumbled to myself, then grinned at Tsu. "Okay! Give it a hard Tackle, Tsu!"

Tsu nodded and charged into Mamepato, but unfortunately missed. 'That's one fast Mamepato,' I sighed. This was going to be tough.

"Mepato!" it yelled and used its wings to make something similar to cuts in the air, directing them to Tsu.

"Tsu dodge it!" I yelled, panicking a little. This Mamepato can even use Air Cutter! Based on the type disadvantage and moves, Tsu had a bigger chance of losing the battle.

Thinking of a fast and effective technique, I ordered Tsu, "Use Vine Whip and hold the Mamepato down!" Tsu did as she was told and her Vine Whip barely managed to reach Mamepato, who had started flying. It fell to the ground as Tsu smashed it hard against the ground.

"Mamepa!" It cried, the impact dazing it.

"Use a Tackle to finish it off Tsu!" The attack hit the restrained Mamepato, and it fell back, badly hurt. Seizing the chance, I threw a Pokeball at Mamepato and a red beam enveloped it, dragging it into the Pokeball.

"C'mon already, become mine!" I gritted my teeth anxiously, looking at the rocking Pokeball. After some movement, a 'click!' was heard and there wasn't anymore rocking or shaking. I grinned and picked up the Pokeball, showing it to Tsu.

"This is great! We've got ourselves a new friend Tsu!" Tsu and I grinned at the other happily. Without waiting another second, I threw the Pokeball into the air, and out came Mamepato.

Smiling at the confused Pokemon, I greeted it, "Welcome to the team Cutter!" it gave me a strange look at first, but then chirped happily and swooped down into my arms. "Oh if you're wondering, that's a nickname I'm giving you," I rubbed it lovingly.

"Tsutarja…" Tsu growled rather jealously at Cutter, and climbed onto me too. Cutter just smirked and sank into my arms.

"Well, for now let's get you healed, isn't that right, Tsu?" Tsu nodded forcefully and we started heading back to Accumula Town.

"There, all done! Your Pokemon is at full health miss, please, if your Pokemon are ever again wounded, come to the Pokemon Centre and we'll heal them back to full health," the Nurse Joy of Accumula Town smiled as she returned Cutter.

"Will do," I returned the smile and walked out of the Pokemon Centre.

'Hmm… why does it feel heavier?' I thought, tapping my chin.

"Tarja," Tsu, who was poised on my right shoulder, pointed at my left shoulder and I saw Cutter perched on it.

"Pato!" It chirped, giving me puppy-dog eyes that were simply irresistible! I caved in and carried the extra weight as I walked back to the Battle Club. As I neared the location, a boy was standing outside, tapping his foot impatiently.

"Geez, what's taking that girl so long…?" he mumbled to himself, glaring at the front doors.

I raised an eyebrow and coughed, getting his attention.

"Excuse me, you're blocking the entrance." I scowled at him and his eyes widened.

"S-Sorry! I didn't know, Lyfa!" He grinned at me and moved to the side. I glared at him suspiciously. How in the world did he know my name?

"Wait… who are you?"

"Huh? Oh you didn't know? Well you could say I'm… just a stranger."

"Well, strangers don't simply just know another person's name that easily," my glared became colder, "So cut the lies and talk."

He stuck his tongue out and put his hand behind his head. "Okay, you got me! I'm your 'babysitter'."

"M-M-MY WHAT? How old do you think I am? Cut the crap before I knock you unconscious!" I screamed angrily into his ears, earning a startled look from him.

"Ouch, that was deafening…" he sighed, "Okay, I'll tell the truth this time. Your sister Cherie made me in charge of you. She's scared you'll get lost-"

I held a hand up to his face and growled, "I don't care, she has no right to do that. Just continue what you were previously doing before she asked you to be 'in charge' of me." I walked inside but he didn't follow me.

"Don't you at least want to know my name?" he called after me, but I decided to ignore him.

Standing in front of the machine again, I checked the list of trainers yet again. Nothing really excited me, so I left my info there instead and sat down on one of the benches in the Town Square for someone to ring my Xtransciever. After what seemed like hours, finally I got a call.

I huffed, "Finally!" Tsu and Cutter agreed and got onto my shoulders as I walked back to the Battle Club.

I saw a girl waiting inside with this huge, green Pokemon that actually looked pretty fierce. She turned to face me as I walked inside, her long, black hair falling onto her shoulders. Her Tyranitar stood a little closer to the girl and looked protective.

"Lyfa Cascade at your service," I introduced, "You called?"

She nodded. "Yes, I did! I was hoping you were around so we needn't wait long! Ah, by the way, I'm Reinforce Yukimura." she gushed eagerly, giving me a small smile.

I looked at her eyes and giggled, "Wow, we have the same, unusual eye color," she gasped and nodded.

"Yeah, I didn't notice! Did your parents think you were a demon too?" she asked me. 'That's an unusual question,'

"Excuse me? What do you mean by that?" I raised an eyebrow as she blushed and shook her head so fast I thought she was going to get a whiplash. Guess I should just continue with our previous topic.

"Whatever challenge this is, I accept." I shrugged. The girl in front of me smirked and her Tyranitar did the same.

"Yeah, and you'll definitely lose,"

I somehow felt this sudden urge to win. Bad. I rolled my eyes and returned her smirk. "We'll see about that, won't we, Tsu and Cutter?" my Pokemon pumped their fists (or wing in Cutter's case) in the air and cheered.

"Well you girls are sure having fun," a voice belonging to a guy chuckled behind me.

"Oh, you're Don George, right?" I questioned, turning around. A man triple my size stood behind me, arms crossed. His face showed a stern yet polite personality.

He nodded, "Indeed, I'm the Don George of Accumula Town,"

"Wait," Rein looked a bit confused, "Does that mean that there are many Don Georges?" Don George nodded and started explaining to her about the Don Georges that are spreaded across the Unova region. I didn't bother listening since I already knew and instead looked at the suspicious door from before, which I assumed that behind it was the battleground.

"…and that's all the Don Georges in Unova," Don George concluded his explanation, and Rein looked a bit dazed from the explanation.

"Say, is anyone using the battleground now?" I asked immediately after that.

Don George shook his head, "No, it's currently free. Would you girls like to battle?" I nodded and awaited Rein's response but nothing came.

"Rein, you okay?" I asked her worriedly seeing as she was lost in her thoughts.

"Why wouldn't I be? I'm not hurt or anything!" she snapped, "I'm just processing the information Don George of Accumula Town was saying,"

"Short-temper much?" I mumbled and Rein heard me.

"Yeah sorry, it's part of my personality."

Don George led us to the battleground which was behind that 'suspicious door'. It was flat land and no obstacles were there, making it one of the easier fighting grounds in the regions.

"This will be a one-on-one match! Only one Pokemon can be used!" Don George stated, meaning he was going to referee us.

"You only have one Pokemon so far?" Rein questioned me.

"Actually, two," I replied with a shrug, "I just started my journey at dawn today. Considering today's my first day, it's already excellent progress that I have two Pokemon by late evening, no?" Rein gasped, shocked.

"Today's your first day?" I nodded. "So is this your first trainer battle?" Again, I nodded. Rein looked close to fainting.

"That's just weird! To have your first battle here of all places!" she put it bluntly, and Don George coughed.

"Excuse me girl? What do you mean by 'here of all places' hmm?" Rein gulped and mumbled a 'nothing sir'.

"Might as well start the battle," I heard her mumble and she threw a Pokeball into the air, "Umbreon, c'mon out!" A black colored Pokemon appeared in a flash, standing in front of Rein protectively.

"Breon!" it growled, baring its fangs at me. I took out my Pokedex and examined the Pokemon.

"Umbreon, known as the Moonlight Pokémon, evolves from Eevee. Umbreon's forehead and legs have yellow rings on them that resemble the symbol of eclipse. They are said to glow at night. Umbreon can spray a poisonous sweat whenever it gets agitated.Despite its appearance, Umbreon is a Pokémon of strong endurance."

"Oh so that's an Umbreon," I looked at it from head to toe and I have to say, it's pretty cute despite it baring its fangs at me. I smirked at Tsu and she realized the meaning behind my smirk. She jumped from my shoulder and onto the battleground.

"Why not send in your Mamepato? That's more effective," Rein put her hands on her hips, "I want you to fight me seriously!"

"I am. Trust me, I know what I'm doing," I winked at Tsu and she winked back.

Rein looked a bit wary but allowed it. "If you say so…"

"Then without further ado, let the match between Reinforce Yukimura and Lyfa Cascade begin!"

Rein quickly started the battle. "Umbreon, use Shadow Ball!" Umbreon dashed quickly and soon it was near Tsu. It gathered some dark energy in it's mouth and fired away at Tsu, who managed to dodge two, but the last one hit her spot-on.

"Tarja!" she yelled, falling to the ground but soon got back up, panting hard. It was already badly wounded from one hit. 'I've got to watch out for those Shadow Balls,' I bit my lip in anticipation.

"Tsu use Tackle on Umbreon!" Without wasting time, Tsu charged forward towards Umbreon.

"Use Quick Attack to dodge!" Umbreon rapidly ran from its previous location and went behind Tsu.

Noticing that Rein was going to fire another Shadow Ball, I quickly called a command, "Tsu jump and use Vine Whip to hold Umbreon down!" I used the same tactic as when I captured Cutter, and boy did it work.

"Bre?" Umbreon was held to the ground by Tsu's whips and there was nothing it could do to escape.

"Rapid Tackle attacks, Tsu!" Tsu charged and knocked into Umbreon and as strong as Umbreon was, it was left defenceless under Tsu's whips.

"Umbreon!" Rein cried in horror, watching her Pokemon get hit by the same move so many times. "Quick! Use Moonlight to heal yourself!"

"Not on my watch!" I yelled, "Tsu! Use all your strength and cast the strongest Vine Whip you've got!"

"Tsutarja!" Tsu cried as it whipped Umbreon with both of its whips multiple times and before Umbreon could even use Moonlight, it had fainted from the pain dealt.

"Umbreon! Wake up! You can't faint so fast!" Rein rushed to Umbreon's side and tried waking it up but to no avail.

"Umbre…" it said before fully fainting, making me the winner of this match.

"Umbreon is knocked out! The winner of this match is Lyfa Cascade of Nuvema Town!" Don George announced, confirming my victory. I hugged Tsu tightly and thanked her.

Rein thanked Umbreon for battling so hard and returned it into its Pokeball. Then she glared at me, "I have decided."

I raised an eyebrow at her. "Decided on what?"

"I've decided to travel with you until I can get back my win!" she stated, pointing a finger at me.

"…Eh?"

Me: Done! Phew, that took a long time!

Lyfa: Didn't seem like much to read.

Me: So what! At least it's progress! Don't worry readers, there'll be more action in the next chapter!

Lyfa: Yeah, more of me and less of you. Har har.

Me: Lyfa! Anyway, R&R people!

Lyfa: Yeah, R&R. By the way Mai is still accepting OCs. Check the first chapter for more info.

Mai: P.S. , if there's any errors please tell me in a review! This was slightly rushed and when I uploaded it fanfiction made some of my words connected!
