~XOX~
Kocchan's and Riolu's crew room, Wigglytuff's guild~
That night….
Damn, today was so exhausting.. I should get to sleep early…
"We went through a lot today…" Riolu said. "But it was fun for me!"
What was fun? Talking to Mizu?
"Yeah, and there was that huge letdown, but I thought I was going to explode from anticipation and excitement! It made me realize that I made the right decision of joining a rescue team!" Riolu continued happily. "One day, I'll solve the mystery of my relic fragment. If my dream came true, I'd faint from too much happiness! Haha!"
Shut your yap and let me sleep!
"…But seriously, thanks, Kocchan." Riolu said.
What?
"I can explore because of you, Kocchan. I'm the biggest Torchic around, and I even managed to work up the courage! And it was all because you were with me, Kocchan." Riolu said. "Really, thanks!"
"You're welcome.." I whispered.
Just when I was getting to sleep, Riolu exclaimed, "Oh yeah!"
"What now, Riolu..?" I questioned.
"I noticed something about your dizzy spells. You always seem to be touching something when they happen."
….Riolu's right! When I heard Azurill's scream, I was touching his apple! And Drowzee bumped into me… And that waterfall, and when I touched that crystal! He's right! Whenever I touch something, I see something connected to it…right?
"One more thing, don't kill me please." Riolu said. "When we rescued Azurill, you had a vision of the future…"
"Uh-huh," I said.
"Then you saw Wigglytuff going into the cave right? So that means you saw a vision of the past!" Riolu finished. "In other words, you can see something's past or future if you touch something! So that could be a special ability! You can use it in lots of different ways!"
"I could use it for plotting Mizu's death!" I said out loud. When I realized I was talking out loud, I said, "SHIT!"
"…What do you mean by, 'plotting Mizu's death', Kocchan?" Riolu wondered.
"Never mind. It was just an idea to me." I said flatly. "I'm going to sleep! Night!" I cried. Just when I was going to get settled in my bed, Chatot came into our room.
"Can't I get any sleep?" I cried.
"Calm down, Vulpix!" Chatot said. "The guildmaster wants to see you two right away."
~XOX~
~Guildmaster's office, Wigglytuff's guild~
"Guildmaster," Chatot announced. "I've brought Team BlastBurn!"
"…Uh, Guildmaster?" Chatot asked, (Is he thinking about erotic things again?)
Then Wigglytuff turned around. "Hiya!" He said in a happy manner.
"Arceus!" Riolu jumped. "You gotta stop turning around like that."
"We're planning to mount a full expedition soon!" Wigglytuff said happily.
"An, expedition?" Riolu asked.
"Yes! The guild will explore somewhere far, far away!" Chatot said, excited.
"Are we going to Casino Night Zone?" I asked, getting all excited all of a sudden.
Everyone just looked at me in shock. Something tells me that I just said something unusual.. "Casino Night Zone? What the hell is that?" Riolu questioned.
Chatot ignored us and went on. "It's much harder than exploring out nearby area. That's why we need to prepare for the big trip properly. We choose carfully which guild members go on the expedition."
"Wow, awesome!" Riolu and I screamed.
"Usually, we would never, ever consider rookies to be expedition members." Wigglytuff explained. "But you two are working so hard! So we're making a special expedition this time! We decided to include you two as candidates for the expedition!" Wigglytuff started dancing.
"Really?" I cried. "This is getting awesome!"
"Hey!" Chatot interrupted. "You guys haven't been chosen as expedition members yet. The expedition is still a long time away. If you fail to do good work before then, or fight with any of the guild members…(Chatot shot me a stern look) "You cannot be expected to be selected for the expedition."
"I'm sure you two can do it! Try hard!" Wigglytuff cried.
"YEAH!" Riolu and I cried, giving each other a high five.
~XOX~
My sleep, once again, was interrupted by freaking Loudred.
"YOU TWO! WAKE UP NOW! SOMEONE'S HERE TO SEE YOU!" Loudred's annoying scream filled the room again.
"Wh-who?" I asked sleepily.
"GET YOUR ASSES UP AND INTO THE MAIN HALL!" Loudred screamed.
~XOX~
"…As I was explaining, there is a lake far to the east." Chatot continued. "There are many aspects that lake that remain mysterious. We hope to unravel those mysteries. And that's why, the guild will mount a full expedition soon!"
This got everyone going. There were a lot of woos and hoots and hollers and…. Loudred.
"An EXPEDITON?" Loudred screamed. "YES!"
"An expedition ,you say?" Bidoof asked. "Oh yes please! Yes siree!"
"Hey hey hey! So that means you'll be picking expedition members from all of us again, right?" Corphish asked.
"Yes!" Chatot said, "Over the next few days, we'll choose the most worthy apprentices. If you fail to do good work, or fight with any of the guild members…(I glared at Loudred.) You cannot be selected for the expedition. Everyone, work hard so you can be chosen!"
"Oh my gosh! This is so exciting!" Sunflora cried.
"Okay everyone, back to work as usual!" Chatot cried.
"HOORAY!" Everyone screamed. Everyone went to do what they had to do.
"Ah, Kocchan and Riolu, come here." Chatot called.
"…Yes?" Riolu asked.
"Today your job is to look at the outlaw notice board. That'll do for today!" Chatot commanded. But then Diglett screamed, "Pokemon detected, Pokemon detected!"
"Whose footprint? Whose footprint?" Loudred yelled.
"The footprint is Surkit's! The footprint is Surskit's!" Diglett answered.
"Aw shit.." I muttered, "Mizu."
~XOX~
Riolu and I went upstairs to the job notice board only to find the same Pokemon that attacked Riolu and stole his Relic Fragment, Koffing and Zubat. But good thing we got it back.
"Hey!" Riolu cried to Koffing and Zubat, "You're the idiots that tried to steal my fragment!"
"You guys?" Zubat screamed. "Why are you here?"
"We're an exploration team." Riolu said.
"Why else would we be here?" I asked.
"Woah-ho-ho!" Koffing laughed. "I'll have you know that we're an exploration team too!"
"The hell? You're an exploration team?" I cried. "And after stealing Riolu's relic fragment too.."
"Anyway, why would you be here?" Koffing asked.
"We wanted to become exploration members." I explained. "That's why we're here!"
"Whaat?" Koffing cried.
"You REALLY wanted to become a real-deal exploration member?" Zubat asked. Then they pulled Riolu aside. "You, come with us for a few seconds."
Just then Mizu entered. She saw Zubat and Koffing talking to Riolu and me just standing there and asked. "What's going on?"
"Shut up," I said. "Just watch."
"Now don't take what I'm about to say the wrong way," Koffing said. "You should forget about being on an exploration team!"
"Why?" Riolu questioned.
"You're timid." Zubat continued for Koffing. "You scare easily. A Scaredy –Skitty like you shouldn't be on a exploration team.
"But," Riolu said, walking over to me and Mizu, "It's true that I'm timid, but that's why I'm training! So I can overcome me shortcomings! Even now, I'm working hard so I can be picked for the guild's expedition!"
Riolu, you and your big mouth.
"Oh, an expedition, you say?" Koffing asked.
"Haha! Only effort gets you that far, but all of it counts on talent. Pure talent. You won't get picked for the expedition party if you don't have that." Zubat said.
"You're one to talk!" I interrupted. "You talk about talent, but what talent do you have? You're so weak, that we beat you at Beach Cave, bitches!"
"Whoa-ho-ho! That's because we didn't have the chief with us." Koffing scoffed.
"Chief?" Riolu, Mizu and I both said. How come I wasn't informed of this before?
"That's right." Zubat said. "Our exploration team, team Skull has three members. The chief is damn TALENTED!"
"If he were around, he's snap you like a Soodowoodo." Koffing scoffed. "Speaking of him, I can smell him right now!"
"Smell?" I wondered.
An incredibly fat Pokemon with purple whiskers and a bad smell, named Skunktank, came down the ladder chute. Mizu was in the way. "Get out of my way!" Skunktank cried. The spray was about to hit Mizu, but then guess what happened? She used me as her freaking shield!
The spray hit me, it smelled so BAD! "Eww!" I cried. The spray was so strong, it sent me flying and I fainted!
"Haha! Kocchan's down!" Mizu laughed. Shut up, stupid bitch.
"Are you okay, Kocchan?" Riolu cried. "What's this disgusting smell? I smells worse than a Gloom's honey!"
The smell flowed off to Sunflora and Corphish. "Eeek! It smells like rotten cheese!" Sunflora cried, holding her nose.
"That is foul, yes siree!" Bidoof cried.
"Hey hey! My eyes are burning!" yelled Corphish.
"Skunktank made his way over to Koffing and Zubat, but saw Riolu standing in the way and cried, "Move it! Or do you want to end up like that wimp over there?"
"Sorry! I'll move!" Riolu cried.
"Did you two sniff out any jobs that are worth the cash?" Skunktank asked them.
"No but, there's something else!" Koffing cried.
"It's huge.." Zubat added. Koffing and Zubat whispered into Skunktank's ear.
"An expedition you say?" Skunktank cried. "That sounds tasty.."
"Right?" Koffing asked. Zubat agreed. "Okay boys, let's get out of here. We need to do some plotting!" Skunktank said. "We're leaving."
As they left, Koffing glared at everyone else and said, "The hell are you all staring at? This isn't a public performance!" Everyone went back to talking to whoever they were talking to.
"See you around, Torchic!" Zubat mocked. They left.
Meanwhile, Mizu was going to ask Riolu a question, but Riolu ran over to me, "Kocchan! Are you okay?"
No answer.
"Kocchan?" Riolu cried. "Please, answer me!"
This time, everyone crowded over to take a look.
"Oh my gosh! Does anyone know CPR?" Sunflora cried. She looked like she was going to cry.
"I-I only know mouth-to-mouth…" Riolu stammered, blushing.
"Then DO IT!" Sunflora exclaimed.
"Fine, I'll do it…" Riolu sighed. He turned me over on his back and got on top of me, and raised his mouth to mine. To force me to breathe. Before he did that, I woke up. "Riolu?" I asked. "What are you doing?" Riolu blushed and got off of me quickly.
"It's nothing, Kocchan!" He shot back.
I don't believe you!
~XOX~
"Now that's done," Mizu said, "What's this expedition I'm hearing? Can I come?"
"Haha! You'll have to ask Chatot on that." I said. "It's a Guild-exclusive expedition. So that means you and your blue ass can't come! Haha!"
"Is Riolu a non-guild member?" Mizu asked.
"No, he's not." I answered.
"Was I asking you?" Mizu retorted.
"Just shut up, Okay?" I said back. "Even if you were a guild member, you still wouldn't be allowed to go on the expedition because you'll slow everyone down!"
"Are you calling me slow?" Mizu cried.
"I'd say no but that would be lying." I stated clearly.
"Wanna go, bitch?" Mizu demanded.
"Oh, it's on!" I cried. Just then, Chatot came downstairs. "What's on?" He asked. "Get back to work!"
Whew! That was close… I thought.
XOX
After Me and Riolu got a job from the outlaw notice board, we went off to Mt. Bristle. Mizu tagged along too, sadly. As we were walking towards Mt. Bristle, two Pokemon named Wynaut and Wobbufet were standing there. Then they walked towards us.
"Oh!" Wynaut cried. "A customer, is it not? The new café , Spinda's Café, is now open! This wonderful shop is flowing with hopes and dreams, is it not?"
"Hopes and dreams? What are you talking about?" Riolu wondered.
"That's right!" Wobbufett said happily.
"Hey, why don't you three come in? Don't be shy!" Wynaut said. He began to push us towards the shop.
XOX~
~Inside Spinda's Café ~
"Wow, this place is huge!" I cried.
"We can see that." Mizu said back.
"No one was talking to you." I said calmly.
A pokemon that looked like a teddy bear with her eyes all swirly, walked towards us. Her walk was swirly too! Is she drunk?
"Hello, and welcome to Spinda's Café!" Spinda said. "I'm Spinda. I'm the owner of this Café. This is a Café for explorers who enjoy finding new things every day and who are constantly challenging themselves."
"A café… for explorers?" Mizu asked, puzzled.
"That's right!" Spinda said. "Today is our grand opening! Please allow me to show you across the premises." She walked us to a juice bar. "This is the Juice Bar." Spinda explained. "If you're tired of eating and you want a drink instead, you can just ask me and I'll use my mad skills to make your gummis and apples into juices~"
"Cool! So we can make Blue Gummi juice!" Mizu cried.
"No shit!" I said. "She just said that!"
"You don't have to be mean to me." Mizu said. "I just got here yesterday."
"You're one to talk!" I shot back.
"Moving along!" Spinda cried. She suddenly slapped us on our backs and pushed us towards the next facility.
"This is the centerpiece of our café, the recycle shop." Spinda explained. "I'll bet that you have items in the Kangaskan storage and you have little use for, right?"
"Well, not really," I said.
"I have a bag of explosives.." Riolu whispered. "Just for emergencies only. Who knows? A Riolu needs them too, you know."
"Why do you have a bag of EXPLOSIVES?" I screamed.
"….Just because…" Riolu said uncomfortably.
"….Anyway, Spinda continued. "Sometimes you have to throw out your extra items to make room..."
Spinda, Wynaut and Wobbuffet threw back their heads and cried, "ISN'T THAT WASTEFUL? There could be explorers in need of those wasted items of yours! That's why we established this facility. You can bring your wasted items and trade them for what you want. How does that sound?" Spinda asked. "If you have a lot of items you don't need, come to our recycle shop, okay? Good-bye now!"
~XOX~
~Outside Wigglytuff's guild~
"You know, we should go out there more often!" I cried. "That place looks like fun!"
Riolu and Mizu were staring at me. "I-I didn't mean it like that!" I cried.
"Hey, Kocchan," Riolu asked. "Let's not do our job today. I mean, it's already sunset, and Chatot's expecting us right now."
"Yeah! Let's go inside~" I said.
~XOX~
~Mess hall, Wigglytuff's guild~
"I sure hope nothing happens like it did with Loudred…" I sighed. Sure nothing was going to happen, but then, just as I took my first bite into my red gummi…
"Hellooo!" A familiar voice cried. Mizu!
"Not you again!" I cried.
Mizu walked over to where me and Riolu were sitting, pushed me on the floor, and got into my seat. "H-hey! That's my seat!" I cried.
"Kocchan, Why are you on the floor?" Chatot asked me.
"It wasn't my fault!" I cried. "Mizu pushed me!"
"Get up and find another seat." Chatot said.
"But she pushed me!" I whined.
"FIND ANOTHER SEAT! OR NO DINNER FOR YOU TONIGHT!" Chatot squawked.
"I'm not hungry." I said. "Goodnight." I walked off to bed, feeling more depressed than ever.
~XOX~
~Kocchan's and Riolu's guild room, Wigglytuff's guild~
"Hey, Kocchan," Riolu said as he walked into the room.
Stupid , freaking, four-legged Surskit! I thought. She got me in trouble for no reason! And it was all because she wanted to sit next to Riolu! Ugh, I'll get her back. And that's not a threat. It's a PROMISE.
"You asleep, Kocchan?" Riolu asked.
"Not really, just thinking about something.." I said awkwardly.
"About what?" He asked.
"N-nothing!" I cried. "Absolutely nothing."
"Well, I got you a red gummi from the dinner table in case you wanted to eat it." Riolu explained. "You know, you said you weren't hungry, but your face from when you left the dinner table made it look like you were hungry." He handed the gummi to me.
"Th-thank you." I said, accepting it and eating it.
"Night~!" I said after I was finished. "Thanks for the gummi!"
"She looks cute when she's blushing…" Riolu thought to himself. He chuckled and went to sleep.
~XOX~
2 Chapters combined into one…. Ugh it did take me a long time…
Please, review! No FLAMES!
