Aurore's Moemon Adventure
Chapter 22
"Wait, this place is haunted?" Sakura asked, surprised.
"Well… um…" Aurore said, looking from left to right. "…Yes…?"
"That is so cool!" Sakura said, grabbing Aurore's hands, her eyes shining. "I have a haunted room!"
"Actually, I have a haunted hotel." Aurore corrected her.
"Your hotel's haunted?" Sakura asked, shocked.
"…Yes." Aurore said, putting an irritated smile on his face.
"Alright!" Sakura said, throwing her fist into the air. "We need to do an exorcism! You shouldn't be plagued by this ghost for a second longer!"
"Actually, I don't really care." Aurore said in the background of Sakura's shining spirit.
Meanwhile, in the lobby, Lulu was enjoying a nice refreshing drink at the island bar.
"Ah, it's so much fun to see Aurore flustered." Lulu said to herself, taking a sip from the blue cocktail.
"Why?" Sora asked, staring up at Lulu. She was relaxing just as much as Lulu was, wearing a black one piece swimsuit and sitting in a black inner tube floating in the pool.
"What, you don't find him getting embarrassed over someone cute?" Lulu asked, smirking. "He's such an idiot, it's so much fun to mess with him…"
"Why do you hate master so much?" Bluebell asked, popping out of the water, between Sora's legs. "What'd he do to you, anyway?"
"What are you doing, Bluebell?" Sora asked, staring at the water moemon in front of her. "Were you just under there waiting for a moment you could pop out in?"
"Nope." Bluebell said, shaking her head. Her serious expression then turned into a playful smirk. "I was about to do this."
Bluebell grabbed onto the side of the black inner tube, flipping it over. Sora spilled out into the water, and Bluebell turned back to Lulu.
"So, what were you saying again?" Bluebell asked, resting her arms at the edge of the tiled island, frowning. "Something about hating Aurore?"
"Well, I don't hate him, per se…" Lulu said, taking a sip of her drink to think of a way to explain. "I'd say it's more like… I hate things about him."
"What kind of things?" Bluebell asked, curious.
"I think you have more serious problems." Lulu said, grinning, pointing at the water behind the blunette.
"Bluebell…" Sora said, poking her head out of the water. Her blue eyes were narrowed angrily at the moemon, her hair practically standing on end.
"And with that, I think I'll take my leave." Bluebell said, turning around. She began swimming away at top speed, Sora chasing after her.
"Ha ha!" Bluebell called back, smirking. "To bad Sora, but you can't swim upstream!" Bluebell swam up the current river for the inner tubes as Sora tried to chase after her, but to no avail; the current was just too strong.
"…" Oshawott, who was tending bar for Lulu, stared down at the lever for the current. The lever was currently on slow, so Oshawott switched it too fast.
"Wha-" Bluebell said, her mouth agape at the tidal wave crashing towards her from the sudden shift. "Back! Back!" Bluebell and Sora spun around and began swimming away as fast as possible, but the tidal wave soon engulfed them, crashing through the tile pathways. Sora and Bluebell, incredibly dizzy, lay washed up on the island, panting.
"Okay, that was amusing." Oshawott smirked in spite of herself.
"Alright, Petilil, put on some sunscreen." Lilligant said, walking out of the bathroom. She wore a green bikini with flowers printed on it, Petilil wearing a matching one piece.
"Mom, we're in a hotel." Petilil said, frowning. "I don't need sunscreen."
"Oh no?" Lilligant said, pointing up at the skylight- fifteen stories up. "Sun."
"Mom, its night out!" Petilil pouted.
"Moon burn." Lilligant said, smirking.
"Mom, I don't want any sun screen!" Petilil said, running away, frowning. She ran over to where Rin was sitting, still wearing her tan dress, staring out at the water.
"Come on, Rin, don't you want to put your swimsuit on?" Petilil asked.
"Ah don' have a swimsuit…" Rin said, frowning.
"That's okay!" Petilil said, smiling. "There are a bunch of 'em in the bathroom to choose from!"
"Ah don' LIKE swimmin' though." Rin said, frowning. "Ah don' like water in gen'ral ta be honest…"
"Why not?" Petilil asked, frowning. "Water's so relaxing! I just love letting it slowly push me away, as I swim…"
"Water always drains me of mah strength…" Rin sighed. "It's too tiresome…"
"Come on, Rin!" Petilil said, pulling Rin off of the ground, pushing her into the pool.
"Ah! Help!" Rin exclaimed, thrashing in the water, her brown-red hair spreading around in the water. "Ah can't swim! The water's drainin' my strength!"
Rin slowly began to submerge, but Oshawott jumped into the water, helping her out. Oshawott pulled herself onto the island, pulling Rin uponto the tiled floor.
"Thanks, Oshawott…" Rin said, smiling, sitting up.
"Rin, I'm so sorry…" Petilil said, running up to her best friend. "I shouldn't have pushed you into the water like that…"
"It's alright." Rin said, smiling. "Ya were just tryin ta get me ta have fun, so it's okay."
"Rin!" Petilil said, tearing up, embracing her friend.
"Um, yeah, do ya think ya can let me go, Petilil?" Rin asked, smiling embarrassedly.
"Oh, sorry." Petilil said, letting go of her, smiling.
"See?" Lilligant said, smiling. "Always wear sunscreen."
"Am I just not in this?" Shaw asked, frowning. "Because I don't think I've been referenced once in this entire story since my introduction."
"Excuse me, who are you?" Lilligant asked innocently.
EoS: Will Shaw ever get referenced? Does he even have any importance to this story? Will we ever find out why Lulu hates Aurore so much? Will Sakura resolve her ghost problem? Can I get up the motivation to answer this in the next chapter without getting enough reviews?
Lauren: …No.
