What Are The Odds?

Chapter 1: Reunion?

~Outskirts of Viridian city~

A golden-eyed teen walks in pure boredom, tapping his indestructible billiard cue on his shoulder in anxiety, itching to find something interesting. And to his surprise, he does.

A 'curtain' of leaves and vines perched on a massive pile of boulders. That was definitely not made by Mother Nature.

"What the heck…?" He walks over to it with curiosity and moves the vines to the side. Oddly enough, there is a way the rocks are piled that makes the inside look like a hideout. The boy takes two steps inside the base before hearing something shuffle in the corner. Immediately, the black-haired teen spins around, only seeing something red and black whizz in front of him before crashing to the ground and dropping his cue a few feet away.

"AGH! What the…!" the boy cried out and stared at what had tackled him, "…Silver?"

The one now known as Silver blinked. "Gold?"

They stared in silence for a minute or so before Silver awkwardly got off from his awkward position on top of his friend.

"What are you doing here?" Silver asks.

"I could ask the same thing." Gold replied smugly

"This is my…hideout, as you could call it. Now, why are you here?"

Gold began to explain the story.

~Flashback~

Here he was, at little, quiet Pallet town. Gold rang the doorbell of his friend/senior's house. No answer. He rang again. No answer. He rang the bell several times that it could've resulted in breaking it. Still no answer. Finally, he gave up and went to the laboratory.

The door opened after a few knocks, "Gold? Is that you?" the elderly man asked.

"Uh…yeah, professor Oak, of course it's me. Have you seen Red?" Gold asked him. He glanced inside the lab behind the old man. 'Aw, Super Serious Gal isn't here? That sucks.'

"Oh, Red went off with Green and Blue for a little while on a vacation. Is anything wrong?" Oak replied.

Gold slightly pouted before taking off in an instant, "Nah, it's nothing big, prof. See ya!"

With that said, Gold decided to head to Viridian city for a quick snack at the newest cafe.

~End Flashback~

"Then I saw your 'hideout' and got curious. And just so you know, the vines on top of the boulders make it stand out. Not much of a 'hideout' if you ask me." Gold finished as he went to pick up his cue.

Silver was quiet for a while. "…Alright then. You can go on your way now, if that wasn't what you were planning to do."

"What? Oh come on, Silver!" the older boy (ironic) whined, "I haven't seen you in such a long time and you tell me to leave?"

"Gold, we saw each other two weeks ago at Yellow's party."

"Well, yeah…but…" Gold scratched his head.

"And unlike most other times," Silver says, "there's someone other than me in this hideout right now."

"Really? Who?"

Silver sullenly turned to the gaping hole in the wall that lead to another 'room' before answering. "…My father…"

"Oh yeah…I forgot about him." Gold muttered, crossing his arms over his chest.

Silver snapped back to him, "What do you mean 'oh yeah'? ! You already knew about him? !" he yells in shock.

"Whoa, whoa, calm down, man!" the breeder exclaims, putting his hands in front of him, "Senior Green sorta…told me. He said not to get on your bad side when we were at the Battle Frontier. He said that you went through a lot back in Kanto."

The red-head grimaced. He made a note-to-self to tell Green not to spill out any information about himself to anyone-especially Gold. It was bad enough that Gold had found this place, but now…

His thoughts were interrupted by a ringing sound. Gold answered his Pokégear quickly. "Hi, Mom!" he greeted cheerfully, "…Okay! I'll be home soon. See ya!...Huh? Not now! Silver's here!...Okay, okay. Love you too." The boy turned, "Well Silver, looks like you got your- ''

He noticed the deep frown on his rival's face. He almost looked…jealous? "Hey…what's wrong with you?"

"…Nothing." said a hesitant Silver.

"Sure it is. Something's up with you."

"No, there isn't."

"No, I'm sure that-WAH!"

Apparently, Silver couldn't keep his calm interior and shoved Gold outside. He called his trusty Ursaring to move a convenient large boulder to block the entrance, leaving the other teen to gape at what had just happened.
