Zach's Adventure ch.8

A/N: First of all, I would severely like to thank Pure Gamer, it's because of you that I continue this story, and I also continue because it's fun to write.

Disclaimer: I do not own Pokémon; if I did… you don't want to know what I would do.

"All right Connor let's get to that battle" I say determined to win, we had just finished lunch at the pokecenter and were walking out for some fresh air.

"I've got a better idea, how about we wait and battle in the Fuchsia City Tournament!" he replies with a grin.

"Okay, but even then there's still a low possibility that we'll be facing each other" I point out.

"Right! So see you then!" he said running off.

"Wait…" I yelled, I had something important to tell him, but I guess it could wait. I went to the pokemart and stocked up on potions, pokeballs, a few other healing items and balls, and then a secret item. I made sure neither Sparky nor Franky saw it. After I stocked up I headed out to Vermilion city, where I would battle the Vermillion gym Leader, Lt. Surge. I would've gone to Celadon City, but once I was done there I would need a bicycle to continue on the path. So, I decided to go to Vermillion, I waltzed out of the southern gate of Saffron City and onto Route 6, the sight of greenery warming my heart after being in Saffron City with its tall buildings and such. I ran straight down the path feeling my thoughts clearing with each step, I stopped just short of running into two people. "Hey, Try to be a little more careful, and slow down!" said one of the two of them, I got a good look at them, they were identical, they both looked to be about 4, wait what are they doing alone then? Anyways, they were wearing pink sleeveless hoodies, jean shorts, and light yellow shoes with red-white striped socks, they were wearing ponytails tied off to one side of their heads, the left one, the one that yelled at me, had her ponytail on the right side of her head, her sister (or at least I think it's her sister) had her ponytail on the left side of her head. "Sorry, say what are you doing out here? Aren't you a little young to be Pokémon trainers?" I ask trying to be as polite as possible.

"What! I'll have you know we're the best trainers in our hometown!" the one on the right said, "We are…" the do a little pose "Day!" the one on the left says, "and Dani!"The one on the right says "and we are The Dynamic Sister Duo!" they say in unison. I felt a little weirded out but I still said in a calm voice, "Oh, well, nice to meet you two"

"You've gotta learn your lesson for running into people!" They both say angrily

"Is that a challenge? Because I accept" I say a little too cockily.

They both pull pokeballs off their belts "Go Mi and Pi!" they yell, a Minun and a Plusle, respectively, hit the field. "Ok, Go Sparky!" Sparky ran to the field, he looked raring to go, "This is a two on two double battle, right?"

"Yup"

"Ok then" I threw a pokeball onto the field "Go Rex!" I yell sending out my gargantuan dinosaur. "Mi use Spark then Brick Break!" Says Day

"Pi use Helping Hand!" Dani yells

"Sparky dodge and use Thunderbolt and Rex Use Dark Pulse!" I command. Minun seemed slow at first but then he suddenly sped up, due to the helping hand, and both of its attacks connected with their targets. Rex fell to the ground defeated by the Brick Break, Sparky was struggling to stand he was looking like he could go down at any second "Mi, Pi, both of you us Quick Attack!" Dani and Day shout in unison. I would've yelled a command but by then it was too late, Sparky got hit by the attacks and fell to the ground, defeated for the second time. I felt like I could fall to my knees and cry at that moment, not only was I defeated, but I was defeated by 4year olds. I didn't fall though; I stood my ground and returned my Pokémon. "That'll teach you to run into people!" they yell walking away laughing, for four year olds they were pretty mean.

I started walking on toward Vermillion again, not enjoying the scenery as much as before. I saw a couple wild types scurrying around but I wasn't in the mood for any more battling anymore. After a couple of minutes of walking I finally arrived at Vermillion City, After taking my first step into the city I was surprised I hadn't seen it from a mile away, there were lights almost everywhere illuminating the city in a gentle glow. The first thing I did was check into the pokecenter and got Sparky and Rex healed, meanwhile I decide to just hang out in the lobby and cool off after the battle. I just sat there and got my thoughts straight and started thinking up a strategy for the gym battle, man this was a lot to think about on… "Mr. Redmond your Pokémon are all healed up, but…" It was Nurse Joy, she motioned for me to come closer, I did so, "… They seem to be suffering a little depression, I suggest giving them a little break" she whispered, I nodded "Ok, will do, thank you for your help" I say with a slight smile.

"No problem, any time!" she says delightedly, I decided to take my leave there, I went to the gym anyways, despite Nurse Joy's warnings I went in anyways. I slammed open the doors, I may have been a little depressed before but I put that behind me, I needed all my attention on this. I was met by a big and burly man, I looked up to him… no seriously I had to look up to see his face, what was he 10 feet tall! I recognized him immediately, Lt. Surge. "Surge, I came for a battle!" I announced, he didn't respond, he instead looked me over; he then thumped me in the forehead, making me fly back a little and said "Go home kid, you ain't worth my time, 'sides it's the gyms closing time" he said walking off, it was then that I realized what time it was, it was night, a full moon to be exact. I stood there for a second then walked back to the pokecenter, went to my room and lay on my bed.

I took out a match and the thing I bought back at the Saffron City Pokemart, a candle. I lit the candle and murmured something below my breath.

"Happy Birthday to me"

A/N: So Very Sorry, I meant to post this on my actual Birthday, October 26, but I got caught up with my presents (Pokémon Rumble Blast is so hard after the main story) I'll try to make up for it somehow! ^_^ (flaming arrow flies past my head) -_-(I pass out)

"Well that's it for now see ya!" Says… Sparky (0_0)
