mockstevenh is back! First I'd like to apologize for the long wait. I got engrossed in Pokémon XD Gale of Darkness and failed to write anything for a long period of time, so technically I was being lazy. I hope you'll forgive me. Second, for the time being I have stopped accepting OCs. Why? You'll find out later. Finally, before I forget, I have to recommend Coolevilshark's "Shadow of the Kalos"
Disclaimer: How many times do I have to do this? I don't own Pokémon in any way, Game Freak does. However I do own my characters and the story plot.
SO ON WITH THE STORY! Nyah!
Chapter 10: Getting to Know
I enjoyed the company of my long lost sister as I continued to walk through the forest. We remained mostly quite as I walked, just happy to know that the other one was there. I emerged out of the forest near to the crossroads so I didn't see the team. I turned and headed down to the beach with a slight spring in my step. But due to the fact that I was holding Erica, I had to keep my excitement down so I didn't bother her. The beach started to come into view and I could see the guys facing off against each other.
Lightning was currently facing off against a Espeon who I assumed to be Victor due to the fact that he could change between the Eevee evolutions. Lightning used a Thunderbolt that landed right in the place Victor had been, who was now a foot to the right and was currently charging something in his mouth. Victor unleashed the attack that came out in three long rainbow colored ribbons which I recognized as Psybeam. Lightning smirked and ran right at it. As soon as he hit it a cloud of black smock engulfed them both. I closed my Eyes and looked at the battle through the perspective of aura. Lightning's mint green aura rushed towards a royal blue aura that I assumed to be Victor's. The aura Lightning opened his mouth and bit down on the unsuspecting Victor, emitting a loud scream from him before his aura self slid to the ground, out of Lightnings maw. Victors aura dimmed slightly as his form changed shape signaling that he had fainted. The smoke then dissipated showing my observations to be correct as Victor lay on the ground in his Eevee form fainted with a triumphant Luxray standing over him.
While this had been going on, Ray had been facing off against Aaron. Aaron had launched a Dark Pulse at Ray who dodged to the left and launched a flamethrower at him. Aaron retaliated by firing a Night Shade at him. Both the attacks passed each other harmlessly before hitting there marks dead on. Both of them cried out before falling to the ground fainted.
Me (Screw grammar, I am not putting an 'I' in place of 'me', it sounds way to weird. Sorry!) and Erica watched all this with a amused expression. One thought passed through our heads. 'Boys.'Erica thought to me shaking her head. I laughed causing Lightning to look over at me.
He gave me a questioning glance before noticing the blue form in my arms. I smiled at him and said, "Lightning, meet my twin sister, Erica."
Erica floated out of my arms and hovered next to me with her long tail swishing near the ground. We both smiled at each other before looking over at Lightning who was staring at us with wide eyes and his mouth hanging open. Me and Erica giggled at Lightning's face before I said, "You might catch a flay in there if you keep it open."
He closed his mouth with a blush from embarrassment that was slightly visible through his blue fur before he remembered why he did it in the first place. Me and Erica giggled again at his predicament as he blushed harder. I then remembered the rest of the team and said, "We'll continue this conversation later, for now though, We need to heal up the other guys."
We all nodded and Erica turned back into a Glaceon and headed off to our home to get some Oran berries before either me or Lightning could stop her. We both sighed in defeat and turned to each other. I sat down on the sand and Lightning soon followed. He looked at me and opened his mouth to say something, but closed it with an unsure look on his face.
"Lightning, its alright." I said, laughing slightly. "Go ahead and ask away."
He looked at me for a moment before deciding it was okay to talk. "OK Steven." He started as I urged him to go on. "I just wanted to ask why you think Erica is your sister? I mean, you've only known her for like two days and in your story about your "Family"andyou, you did not mention that you had any sisters other then your step sister Brianna." He finished, putting extensive venom on the word Family.
"The reason for me not telling you earlier is because I did not know then." I replied with confidence. "I am honestly still shocked about the news. Also what's more, is that we are Twins."
"Twins?" He asked incredulously. "How can you be Twins? She is obviously mush younger then you."
Before he could say any more I put a paw on his lips silencing him effectively. "Lighting." I said as I looked in to his eyes so he could tell if I was lying or not. "You and I both do not know how old she is and we both know that she is a Mew, meaning that she could possibly be making herself look young."
Before either of us could continue this debate, we heard Erica yelling our names, still in her Glaceon form, as she rushed towards us with a giddy expression. She had a Treasure Bag strapped around her that was holding way too many berries. "I brought the Oran berries so we can wake up our friends!" She said in a sing song voice. "So lets go wake them up!" Lightning and me got up to greet her but instead she tripped right before she got to us. We both sweat dropped as she jumped back up as if nothing had happened at all. "Come on!" She said as she ran past us towards the unconscious bodies of our comrades.
"OK!" Lightning and me said together, running after her. We both grabbed a dry tasting Chesto berry and a Oran berry to wake them up and heal them. I ran over to Aaron while Lightning ran over to Victor and Erica got Ray. I put the Chesto berry in front of his nose while I crushed it slightly in my paws so he would inhale it's scent. He awoke with a start and tried to jump up but fell back down with a yelp as he felt the pain from his previous wounds. I laughed at him before I gave him the berry to eat, which he took gratefully, ignoring my laugh. After he ingested the berry the wounds on his body immediately started to close up, not even leaving slight scars, and his burnt of fur began to grow back. 'Dang, I love this world! It's so freaken awesome!' I thought to myself.
I heard a giggle and looked to my left to see Erica giggling at me for what ever reason as she helped a slightly dazed Ray heal up. However that reason was soon answered as I heard her voice giggle in my head. "Yup! This world is awesome and I love it too!" I smiled at her while Aaron and Ray were left to wonder what was going on.
Once everyone was healed up, I got Lightning to gather them all together so they could listen to what me and Erica had to say. The group lined up in front of me and Erica waiting eagerly to find out what we had to say. I heard Erica start laughing next to me and I sighed. "Good one Ray!" Erica giggled. "But the answer is no." We all looked at ray who was wondering what she meant and sadly, so were we.
Before they continued with this any longer I put my paw over on Erica's mouth to keep her from saying anything else. This led to everyone else to be even more confused. I sighed and said, "Everyone." They all looked at me, eyes rapt and attentive. "Erica is my Sister." I it it sink in as they processed what I had said. Ray was the first to speak.
"Oh, I thought you guys were mates or something" He said in a apologetic tone.
"I know!" Erica burst out with a wide smile. "We did make it seem like it, didn't we!"
'Well that explains what she was in a giggling fit earlier.' I thought while sweat dropping. I then sent a telepathic message to Erica saying, "You really should stop reading people's minds without their consent sis." I thought to her, laughing slightly to myself.
"Um, okay." Ray said as everyone else sweat dropped.
"Um, okay..." I said, recovering. "Does any one question that we are brother and sister?"
"I do." Lightning said as he stepped forward slightly, with a relatively blank look on his face, but I could see a bit of resentment in it. "Please explain to us, how you two are siblings." His voice was harsh and that surprised me. I mean he has never spoken to me that harshly.
Erica seemed to notice my unease and her face took that of a serious expression. "First off, You all need to know that me and Steven are Human turned Pokémon." She said, her voice announcing that of authority that I never knew she had in that sort time I've known her.
Ray, Victor, and Aaron all had disbelieving looks on their faces as Aaron said, "I am going to need proof if your going to be stating something as outrageous as that."
That's when I got a hold of myself and told them, "And how exactly is it outrageous? Last time I checked, this happened before. Lightning and me know all too well seeing as we were the ones who saved time from collapsing." I cringed at the last part, remembering what had happened at that time.
"Wait, that was you guys?" Ray asked in disbelief.
Lightning then sighed saying, "Yes it was us but can we get back to the task at hand? I want to hear how and why my best friend thinks he has a sister when he clearly said to me that he did not have one in the first place." Everyone grudgingly agreed and stayed quite as they waited for me to tell them what happened.
"Okay." I sighed before launching into the story about my past and the things Erica has told me that I feel in my heart is true. Then to finish the story off I asked Erica to turn back into a Mew as that was our original plan. When Erica transformed everyone, excluding Lightning, was shocked. Not only was she a mew but she was also a blue Mew. "Do you believe us now?" I asked exasperated.
They nodded and Lightning broke down into tears to everyone's surprise, except mine. I walked over to him and patted his back saying in a soothing voice, "It's okay Lightning. I'm not mad at you. You just thought I was being manipulated again right?" He nodded but continued crying. I hugged him, which would have been a very bad idea if I had a chest spike, in order to make him feel better, if only slightly.
I noticed that the sun was setting and said to everyone, "Guys it's getting late so I think we should head off to bed, alright?" they nodded and I helped up the sniveling Luxray and began to slowly walk to the cliff with Erica following in tow. Everyone else headed off to where ever and Erica helped me walk Lightning home. Luckily the town was asleep so no one had to see Lightning in his fragile state, no doubt he will be felling guilty all night.
When we got inside our home I told Erica to use my bed because I would be sleeping with Lightning to night. She got a sly grin on her face as I settled Lightning on to his bed as she said, "Try not to be too loud tonight, after all I do need to sleep."
I blushed deeply and defended myself saying, "NO! I was not going to do-" I stopped when I saw her laughing.
"My goodness!" She said while still laughing like it was the funniest thing in the world, which it probably was to her. "I was only messing with you. I know what you meant. Now goodnight." And with that, a she plopped her self on my bed and a soft snore began to issue from her.
I sighed and hugged Lightning's sleeping form. I felt his body relax and slowly but surely drifted off to sleep next to him quietly saying, "Friends forever."
Yea! I finished! I am soooooo sooory about the wait! Well just a recap of one thing. I recommend Coolevilshark's "Shadow of the Kalos"! Now without further ado. Nyah!
