Chapter 3: Welcome to Moonlight (Part 2)
I stare at the Alakazam as he stars back at me. I never said I wanted to join this guild, Combusken just had me tag along with him. Moments go by with nothing but silence. Combusken breaks it. "Riolu doesn't speak much... For a matter of fact, I've only heard him speak once," Combusken says in wondering tone. "I know he can speak... But don't know why he doesn't... Hehe." Combusken rubs the back of his head as he puts of an obviously fake laugh.
"Well, if he doesn't say he wont join the guild he's our newest member," Alakazam responds to Combusken, but continues the stare off with me.
I open my mouth to speak, but I just shut right back again. I turn around breaking the stare between Alakazam and myself and start to head for the elevator. "If you just leave you'll still be a member of this guild," Alakazam says as I'm about to click the down button to the elevator. I drop my hand.
"I'll never join this pathetic guild... I have better things to do with my time," I say in a stern voice with my back towards Alakazam and Combusken still. I then punch the down button to the elevator leaving crakes in the wall. There is a moment of silence as I wait for the elevator to come. The elevator arrives and I walk in. I punch the button that says "floor one" and the elevator closes with my back still facing them.
"Well, I guess he's not joining then. Such a shame... I could see his potential in just that moment," says Alakazam in a disappointed tone.
"That idiot!" Combusken yells as runs up the last flight of stairs and onto the roof of the guild. He looks over the edge and sees me as I walk out of the doors on the bottom floor.
"RIOLU!" Combusken yells from the top the ten story building. I look over my solder to see Combusken jumping from the top of the building. My eyes widen in shock that he could jump off a ten story building with ease. He lands right behind me and says, "I know you don't have anywhere to go... You would not be standing in the rain if you did... Nor would you have agreed to fallow me this far. I don't know why you have to be so stubborn, but you and I both know you want to join this guild. I could see the excitement in your face as we walked through the first floor of the guild. Riolu... I don't know how, but I know you belong in this guild... That's why I brought you here join even though I'm a level two and knew I could not recommend anyone for the guild. Alakazam saw it too... That's why he accepted you into the guild. Riolu... Please be the newest member of Moonlight!" The fire chicken gave a compelling speech, but no matter how compelling, I should not join the guild. If I joined the guild I would be harming everyone in the guild and could possibly cost them their live. If I say yes, I'd be putting innocent live at stake...
"Alright... Your speech is just too compelling," I answer even though I knew I would only come to hate myself more for this... What can I say? The fire chicken had a way with words.
Alright, I have a bunch of questions without any answers... Why was Riolu standing in the rain? What did Combusken say/reveal in the cave? Why would Riolu joining the Moonlight be harming it?
I promise that these questions will be answered... Eventually...
The next chapter should be the third and final part of the "Welcome to Moonlight" portion.
