Short Story
I was just sitting on my desk, eating pocky, when Black rushed in. "Ani! You got-"
"As much as I like it when you're a bit quieter, not much but quieter, you could have, I dunno, knocked first?"
Black knocked on the door (like that's going to do anything besides noise pollution) and continued what he was saying. "You got mail! That is, to say, a REVIEW! I mean, a review! Uh…" Black made a 'hold on' sign and rushed out of the room. I imagined that he is at the rooftop (my workplace is on the top floor) and I could still hear him yelling, "I'M GONNA WIN THE POKELEAGUE!" followed by the traditional speech of beating the gym leaders.
He came back after five minutes. I took off the earplugs I was wearing. "Okay, what about the review?"
"Well, I'm going to say it out loud." Black said. "Go on…" I said, suspicious. "It's from Aquamarine Girl." He took a deep breath. "AAAAAAAAAAANNNNNNIIIIIIIIIIIIIIII! UR SOOOOOO MEAN! Great and funny side story... NOW GET IN WITH THE ACTUAL AND PROPER STORY AND MOVE YOUR BUTT!" he yelled.
I literally, literally saw bits of dust or something fall off from the ceiling while I fell off my seat. "Ugh…did you have to yell?"
Black shrugged. "That's why it's in CAPS!"
"YOU DIDN'T HAVE TO YELL!"
"YOU'RE YELLING AS WELL!"
"If you're going to yell till this building collapse, you'll be adding that debt with the other debt you owe to White!" I shouted. The falling dust stopped.
I sighed. The phone rang. "Hello?" I answered.
I swear, the guy in the first floor is louder than Black. I didn't need the phone to hear his voice 574 stories below. If I didn't know better, his yelling actually made even more dust fall.
"I DON'T KNOW WHAT IN HELL IS GOING ON UP THERE, BUT YOU'RE DISRUPTING THE BUSINESS!"
May I say that the next 24 hours was me and Black along with the other workers answering calls all over the city/the town up ahead about our disruptions.
End of Story
Ani: I'm back! Er…sorry folks, if you're waiting a long time, especially Aquamarine Girl. Um…I had a story, thought better of it, deleted it, so I'm starting fresh.
Ani: Black…is being the whipping boy for me.
Ani: So…I believe that's all…stuff below, but…
I don't own Pokespe.
At School
Prism and Eevee sighed as the slouched in their seat. It was lunch time, but who cares?
Eevee grumbled something. "Huh? What was that?" Prism said, still slouching.
"I said that if the thief's here, I'm going to act dead." Eevee said a little louder. "Oh…okay…" Prism mumbled before face planting herself on the table. "I don't even feel hungry. I bet before I even finish, someone's going to interrupt me…"
"You can't have bad luck all the time at the same time." Eevee said. "Oh yeah?" Prism dared. "Watch." Prism sat up. She waited. Nothing.
She spoke this really fast as fast as she can. "Itadakima-"
"Yo! Prism!" said a voice. Prism twitched, a tick mark on her head. Eevee sweatdropped. "You were close…"
"Not close enough." Prism muttered angrily, slamming her fork in her pasta really hard, Eevee thought the plate was going to split in two.
Gold flinched. "Chill Eevee Gal."
That just made Prism's tick mark even larger. "You might not want to say anything else." Eevee advised a bit unnecessarily.
"Well, about yesterday…" Gold continued a bit slower. Prism slammed the fork again. Eevee could have sworn she heard a small crack. Gold jumped a little. "Um…"
"100 tries…" Prism said darkly. "100 failures." Eevee finished, looking at Prism warily. "All because of some stupid reason for a pest." Prism said.
"Wait, who's this pest?" Gold said, acting like a guy who will punch the so called pest.
"Maybe a jerk. No, definitely a jerk. A moron, a pain in the neck, an idiot, a whipping boy, a flirt, a playboy, a cheater, a slacker, a…" Prism continued ranting about the pest. "Wow. This pest seems to be a…pest." Gold said dumbly. "Who is this guy anyway?"
"And a pervert!" Prism finished and took a deep breath.
"Aka you." Eevee muttered at Gold. "Hmm? Wait…" Gold started to process what that means. "WAIT! I AM NOT ALL THAT!" Gold shouted.
BAM!
Gold and Eevee flinched at the sound of the fork being smashed again. Eevee is now certain that there is a crack on the plate.
There was something shiny on the plate in a zigzag pattern.
"Because of your stupid request." Prism spat. "We used pretty much all of our resources, with nothing but smoke, disappearing books, huge plates, shrunken shoes, flying objects (thought that's a normal thing), a twin of Flareon, a popsicle twin of Glaceon, a bubble Vaporeon, two twinleaves that are supposed to be Leafeon, poor girl, and an invisible Jolteon we're still (even now) trying to reverse. All because of your freaking request!"
"Uh…"
"Not to mention a shadow Umbreon," Eevee continued as Prism took a deep breath. "And the fact that Sylveon is stuck in the sky, as a cloud, good thing she doesn't move around the world, and Espeon to be…okay, in her case, she loves it, but she has become a living dawn jewel! Did I ever mentioned that everyone went to their pre-evolution except for Espeon and Sylveon (I think) and Vaporeon and Umbreon?"
"SAY WHAT?!" everyone screamed. By everyone, that means, all the pokedex holders. They were actually eaves dropping on the conversation. Prism face was shadowed by her bangs.
Eevee, true to her word, pretended to be dead.
"Eevee's dead!" Blue gasped.
"She's just sleeping though." Yellow said innocently. Blue and Eevee sweatdropped. T T
"But what's this thing about a request?" Crystal pointedly glared at Gold. Gold took a step back. "You don't seriously expect this has anything to do with me, right?"
That, is such an obvious answer, no one even bothered to answer that rhetorical question.
Eevee 'woke up' from her 'nap'. "Gold wanted Prism to make a lo-" she got muffled by Gold's hand and his shushing. Everyone looked at Gold suspiciously. Gold laughed nervously. "What?"
He let go of Eevee but gave her the 'look'.
Eevee "hmphed".
"Potion." She said. "Potion?" everyone repeated, thinking of the potion for Pokemon. Eevee glared, making sure Gold saw her claws, and said, "A love potion. For pervert."
"Why the heck does he need a love potion? Why does he think love potions even exists?" Pearl frowns.
"Ask him, not me." Eevee shrugged. All eyes went to Gold. Gold gulped. "Uh…" he was eyeing Crystal warily. "Oh. That explains it." Eevee said. T T
Yellow noticed Prism and that black aura around her. "P-prism? Something…wrong?" she asked.
BAM!
Everyone jumped from the fork again. Everyone heard a small crack. "Something wrong….huh?" Prism said darkly. "OF COURSE SOMETHING IS FREAKING WRONG! EVERYTHING THING BACK HOME IS WRONG! AND IT'S ALL THANKS TO YOU, GOLD! I HAD IT! NO MORE MAKING STUPID LOVE POTIONS FOR YOUR SILLY DREAMS OF GETTING CRYSTAL. NOT THAT I THINK IT'S NOT A POSSIBILITY, BUT NO MORE LOVE POTIONS, NO MORE POTIONS OF ANY KIND!" she screamed. The whole cafeteria stayed silent. Gold looked like he wanted to die. Crystal stared in shock. Everyone stared in shock.
"SAY WHAT?!" everyone in the cafeteria yelled.
Eevee sighed. Gold looked down from above. "Oh, I see…" he said, looking at the panic around the cafeteria and his white, unmoving body. "I died."
"QUIET!" Prism roared. Somehow, even the spirit of Gold got scared, and went straight back to the body.
Everyone looked at Prism fearfully. "Y-yes…?"
Prism didn't answer and went back to eating on the half cracked plate.
Cottage
Jolteon, er, or the invisible Eevee that was Jolteon, jumped a bit. "Did you guys hear that?"
The two Eevees, supposedly Flareons, looked around. "Who said that?" they both said at the same time. "Me! Jolteon! Um…Behind you…" Jolteon tried to say. The Eevee Flareons looked at the direction Jolteon's supposed to be. "Hear what?" they asked. "No, nevermind. Thought I heard Prism yelling. Nah, couldn't be…"
"Forget about that!" hissed a pale looking Eevee. Well, not really pale, just a lighter color than normal Eevees. "What about my popsicle double?" Eevee form of Glaceon spat, glaring at the direction of a blue popsicle Glaceon. "Hey, how come Glaceon's twin is a Glaceon and Glaceoon is an Eevee?" Jolteon asked.
"I'm not real." Replied popsicle Glaceon. The twin of Flareon Eevee licked popsicle Glaceon. "EEK! Flareon! Er, Flareon's twin! What are you doing?!" screeched Eevee Glaceon.
Ani: This is getting confusing to write, if you ask me
"You taste like a frostberry." Flareon's twin replied. "Huh?!" popsicle Glaceon was flabbergasted. "Ooh! Frostberry flavored Glaceon!" Flareon Eevee squealed. She turned around with a dark face. "What the heck is a frostberry? A frozen berry?"
"Maybe it's those berries Snover grows." Jolteon wondered out loud. Flareon Eevee yelped. "Holy! Invisible Jolteon Eevee! What the heck! You got to stop doing that!"
"Do what? It's not my fault I sound like a voice out of nowhere. I'm invisible!" Jolteon Eevee countered.
"Watch out Flame brain! Wait, you're not really…Flareon. I mean you are Flareon, but…urgh! Just watch out! That's Leafeon over there!" Glaceon Eevee said, looking at the direction of twinleaves next to Eevee Flareon. "Oops. Sorry Leaf." Flareon Eevee apologized.
"Eek!" Twin Flareon stood on end, hissing at the shadow but no body of Umbreon. "Stop scaring me you dimwit!"
"It's not my fault I am a shadow!" Umbreon protested. "Should I 'disappear' by going to the shadow of the cabinet? I could scare you by saying stuff suddenly without you knowing where I am…"
Twin Flareon tried to spat at Shadow Umbreon. "This is ridiculous!" she hissed.
Glaceon Eevee could see the part that's supposed to be Shadow Umbreon's head turn to the window. "Everything okay there Sylveon?"
A cloud formed in the shape of the intertwining pokemon at the window. Cloud Sylveon appears to be floating. Well duh, she's a cloud.
"I guess so. Not moving with the wind, so that's good. But I feel…light. And…It feels weird." Cloud Sylveon said.
"Hey, have you seen Espeon yet?" Invisible Jolteon said. "EEK! INVISIBLE JOLTEON EEVEE!" Flareon Eevee scowled.
"Sorry." Invisible Jolteon Eevee rolled his eyes.
"Actually I did." Sylveon said, answering Jolteon's question. "You really can't miss her, the sun reflecting her like that. She looks like an Espeon made of a dawn Jewel!"
"That's because she is an Espeon made of a dawn jewel." Popsicle Glaceon muttered. Glaceon Eevee made sure twinleaves of Leafeon was kept safe. "What's a dawn jewel?" Shadow Umbreon asked. Sylveon saw the shadow of Umbreon on the kitchen wall. "It's a jewel that's supposed to be made when dawn breaks and the first rays of light hit a drop of water that is falling at the right moment. Technically, it's supposed to be golden green and yellow with a tint of orange in the middle. But Espeon seems to be a lavender one." Sylveon said.
Ani: That was a Jewelpet reference
"Typical." Flareon twin said coldly. "She gets the good end of the deal."
"No, Eevee does." Glaceon Eevee countered.
"Where's Va-"
"I'm here!" said a voice. Suddenly, a bunch of bubble foam rose up from the kitchen sink and formed into the shape of Vaporeon. "I feel…bubbly!" she said.
"Duh." Flareon Eevee said.
"Are we going to be stuck in this form forever?" Shadow Umbreon asked fearfully. "I hope not." Popsicle Glaceon scowled. "But…if it goes back to normal…you will…" Bubble Vaporeon said.
"I'm Glaceon, remember that. Two bodies, one soul. And possibly two brains as well." Popsicle Glaceon said.
"Huh?"
"Either way, I feel sorry for Leafeon." Glaceon Eevee said, looking at the twinleaves under her paw. "Aren't you choking her?" Bubble Vaporeon asked. "Oops." Glaceon Eevee lifted her paw.
"How does it feel like to be a shadow?" Jolteon asked Umbreon. "Flat. I feel like I'm flat, you know. Like a paper, only thinner…" Umbreon replied.
"Do you feel dark?" Bubble Vaporeon asked. "Well, duh. He always feel dark. He's a dark type." Flareon Eevee muttered.
"That's true." Cloud Sylveon replied. She frowned.
"Uh…Sylveon? You're turning…well…cloudy." Popsicle Glaceon said. Sylveon looked at herself as saw that her usual white cloud look is turn a bit gray like a rain cloud. "Do you feel sad? Usually, if you have a raincloud, it's like being sad right?" Bubble Vaporeon said.
"Isn't that being blue?" Invisible Jolteon said.
"HEY!" Vaporeon and Flareon Eevee shouted. "What?" Jolteon asked.
"What does Blue have to do with this?" Flareon Eevee said the same time Vaporeon said, "I'm originally blue, you don't see me sulking all the time!"
"Huh?" Invisible Jolteon sweatdropped…invisibly. "I could have sworn I saw a sweatdrop out of nowhere…" Umbreon said to himself. Glaceon Eevee sweatdropped. "I have a feeling we have two misunderstandings…"
"I don't think Jolteon Eevee means by the person." Popsicle Glaceon said. "I agree." Sylveon added, turning back to white slowly.
"But I'm blue…and I'm not sulking all the time." Vaporeon sulked. "Hypocrite." Twin Flareon whispered loudly.
"I didn't mean it like that!" Invisible Jolteon Eevee said. "I mean, it's just a figure of speech and all…"
Flareon Eevee sighed. "This is why you shouldn't name a child after a color."
6 people sneezed somewhere.
Then Flareon Eevee had a lightbulb turned on. "What? You look like you just had an idea." Bubble Vaporeon said. "You know, I have a theory on why Blue's parents named Blue Blue." Flareon Eevee declared.
"Didn't you say it was to symbolize the rainbow?" Shadow Umbreon said.
"Shush." Flareon Eevee snapped at the shadow. "Ugh. I feel ridiculous, talking to a shadow…" Flareon Eevee muttered. "Hey! That's an insult!" Umbreon said angrily.
"What's your theory?" Flareon twin asked. "Aren't you, you know, her?" Bubble Vaporeon said. "So? Doesn't mean I know what's going on in her head." Flareon twin answered. "But…"
"My theory," Flareon Eevee said dramatically. "Is that their parents must have been foretold that Blue's future is going to be a dark and sad and mysterious one. So they named her Blue because she's going to be all gloomy or sulky right? So there. Either that or they're just sad when Blue was born."
Silence.
"Wow." Invisible Jolteon Eevee said lamely. "That's…interesting."
"Don't encourage her." snapped Glaceon Eevee.
"Wait, how come Flareon Eevee's twin is an Eevee like Flareon Eevee but Glaceon Eevee's twin is a Popsicle Glaceon?" Bubble Vaporeon said. "You think I have a clue? Ask Arceus." Flareon Eevee muttered.
"Why did Yellow's parents name her Yellow?" Invisible Jolteon Eevee said. "Wasn't her real name Armadillo or something?" Shadow Umbreon said. "It's Amarillo." Sylveon corrected. "Right, what she said." Shadow Umbreon said.
"Doesn't Amarillo mean Yellow in Spanish?" Popsicle Glaceon said. "So either way, her parents named her a color." Flareon twin said. "Typical."
"Maybe they like the color yellow?" Invisible Jolteon Eevee suggested. "What about Red?" Flareon Eevee countered.
Ani: In the Pokemon Origins, Red got that name because of something about fire and starter pokemon? Or something…
Flareon: Oh? It's still a color
Ani: Well…out.
"Okay, back to the topic of blue…" Bubble Vaporeon said. "Have anyone heard Prism yell earlier? I thought I did."
"What does that have to do with anything with blue?" Flareon twin said. "Maybe Prism is at the school right now and Blue's in there too and..." Bubble Vaporeon trailed off. Flareon gave Bubble Vaporeon a "seriously?" look.
"Come to think of it, yeah, I thought I heard Prism yell too." Invisible Jolteon Eevee said.
"Impossible, she's at school." Popsicle Glaceon said. "Just like it's impossible to be in these forms?" Shadow Umbreon said.
Silence…
"Well, it's not impossible anymore."
"This reminds me of a saying. Expect the unexpected and the unexpected never happens." Cloud Sylveon said.
"True." Everyone said. The whole forest echo the voice of the seven, "BUT THAT'S NOT GOING TO HELP US GO BACK TO NORMAL!"
"Wait a minute." Bubble Vaporeon said, breaking the atmosphere. "You're saying that you want to be dead?" she asked Flareon twin and Popsicle Glaceon.
Ani: Done! Finally. Again, sorry for those who waited a long time, but it shouldn't be that long compared to other stories…
Ani: Thank you for reviewing to those who do.
Ani: And please tell review to those who didn't. And don't forget about the whole Soul/enemy thing. Two votes for Soul so far.
Ani: And…yeah. Oh, and sorry Aquamarine Girl. Um…but I think you should be sorry for almost breaking my eardrums. Oh wait, that was Black, nevermind! ^^
Ani: Oh, and Colorful Moon! If you're still there, wherever you are, thank you for reviewing! Forgot to add you before in Chapter 13…sorry…
Ani: You can hate me now. But please review.
Ani: And to those who reviewed, I'm kinda mad for nobody telling me that our pen names have to be somewhat in the range of jewels. Meanies! :P
Ani: That's it! Bye me!
P.S. Happy Thanksgiving!
