Moemon Ranger: Shadows of Almia
Chapter 18
"What are you doing here?" The man in the black uniform exclaimed, shocked. "Um, rangers, I'm just a geologist, doing, um, soil samples!"
"Really?" Barlow asked, frowning. "So, what's in the soil around here?"
"Um, there's unobtanium, uncommonium, very-hard-but-not-impossible-to-obtanium, difficult-to-findium, and regular obatanium, and, um, okay screw this!" The man shouted. "Rampardos, go!"
The two Rampardos that were breaking through the walls moved away, and turned to the two of us. The wore grey shirts and blue and grey pants, with grey hair down to their shoulders and a large blue helmet with red eyes.
"Alright, let's go!" I shouted, running over to the Rampardos.
"Raar!" The Rampardos growled, lunging at me.
"Capture styler, go!" I shouted, releasing a disk from my styler, arcing at the Rampardos.
"Graah!" The Rampardos shouted, lunging at me, her head lowered. She blasted through the capture line, and I jumped out of the way, releasing the disk back at the moemon, looping around her waist.
"Rock slide!" Rampardos roared, stomping the ground. Boulders fell over her, breaking the line, bringing my styler down to half strength.
"My turn!" Nyu shouted, running out from where she was standing behind me. "Ice shard!"
Nyu released a blast of ice and wind at the Rampardos, hitting her head on, knocking her to the ground.
"Ah, master, isn't it great that pelting moemon with attacks increases their friendship levels?" Nyu asked, smiling. "Did you fall in love with me just then? Huh? Huh?"
"Um, I love you, but not the same way I love Petal…" I said guiltily.
"Aw…" Nyu said, blushing.
"Um, what?" Kellyn asked.
"Say you love me again?" Nyu begged. "Please? "
"Um, I thought we were fighting?" Rampardos asked, frowning.
"Oh, right." Nyu said, disappearing, hitting Rampardos in the back.
"Ouch, geez!" Rampardos exclaimed, sitting up. "That hurt!"
Nyu hit her again, and again, and continued pummeling on the helpless rock moemon.
"Alright, capture styler, go!" I shouted, releasing a disk out from my styler, looping around the Rampardos repeatedly until I managed to tame her.
"Sorry!" The Rampardos exclaimed, blushing, running away from us.
"Master, I did good, right?" Nyu asked, sitting on the ground in front of me, like a puppy eager for a treat. "Can you say you love me again? Please?"
"I… I love you." I said, blushing.
"Hau!" Nyu blushed, fainting.
"Hey, Kellyn, is your Sneasel alright?" Barlow asked. "She's bleeding!"
"What?" I asked, surprised, kneeling next to Nyu. But, lo and behold, the blood was spurting from her nose with an expression of bliss on her cute little face.
"Nyu?" I asked, lightly shaking her awake.
"An angel…" Nyu said, staring at me. "An angel has come to me… Sorry dear mother, but it looks like I'm going on ahead…"
"Nyu, snap out of it!" I said, shaking her awake.
"What?" Nyu asked, her eyes snapping open. "Ah, master…"
"Let's go." I said, smiling, hoisting Nyu onto my back. Barlow and I trekked back to the ranger base, mostly in silence.
"Hey, you want to ride back to the ranger base?" Barlow asked, smiling.
"'Ride?'" I asked, frowning. "What do you mean, ride?"
"Look." Barlow said, pointing to two moemon. They wore brown shirts and fluffy brown skirts, with brown pom-poms in each hand, and fluffy brown hair down to their necks, and black eyes. "See, all we have to do is catch them, and we can ride them back to the base."
"Seriously?" I asked, surprised. "You can do that?"
"Yup!" Barlow said, smiling. "Let me show you how!"
Barlow released the disk from his capture styler, and it arced around one of the Doduo a few times, the moemon walking over and sitting beside him.
Her friend simply stood there, looking at me, expectantly. I pulled my styler out and shot a disk at the moemon, the disk arching around her body for a few seconds, capturing her easily.
Moemon: Doduo
Type: Normal/Flying
Poke Assist: Normal
Field Move: Agility
Info: Doduo have very strong legs and can run great distances quickly. Because of that, many rangers keep them handy for long travels.
"Alright, get on!" Doduo said, turning around, looking back, smiling.
"Um, don't you think it's a little too soon for that?" I asked, frowning. "I mean we barely know each other, and it doesn't seem right to-"
"That's not what I meant…" Doduo said, face palming. "Get on my back, and I'll take you where you need to go."
"Oh, alright…" I said, climbing onto Doduo's back, Nyu holding onto me tightly to keep from falling off.
"Wow, sucks to be you." The other Doduo said, smirking. "My guy's a ranger who's partner moemon always disappears when it's not necessary for the plot."
At that point, Barlow climbed on top of the other Doduo, nearly snapping her spine.
"Oof… heavy…" The Doduo gasped out, stumbling forwards, barely keeping her balance.
"Yeah, yeah, sucks to be me." My Doduo said, smirking. "Anyways, I'll race you there!" My Doduo, even with two passengers, made a beeline towards the ranger base. I have no idea how she knew where to go, seeing as how I never told her my destination, but she still somehow managed to get there.
"See ya, Doduo."
"Oh, hey, mister, if you ever need to get somewhere fast, or if you just want to talk, um…" The Doduo stuttered, blushing. "I-I'm available. I'll be hanging around here, so just um, come and find me, okay?"
"I'll do that!" I said, smiling.
"Thanks mister!" The Doduo called over her shoulder, running off. She skidded to a stop, though, and spun around, smiling. "Oh, and what's your name?"
"Kellyn!" I called.
"Alright, see you around!" Doduo called, waving her pom-poms, running away into the forest.
Tired after a long days' work, I yawned and walked into the ranger base, a sleeping Sneasel in my arms. I set her down next to Kurou on a small mattress in the middle of the living room, and stood up, noticing Petal sleeping on the couch. I pulled the crumpled blanket off the ground and spread it over her body, having her purr in satisfaction as she shifted her position to be more comfortable.
I kissed her lightly on the forehead, causing her to sigh happily, and headed back to my room where I got the first decent night of sleep in months.
So, how was that chapter? Nice and cheerful? I plan to have the Doduo being a recurring character, though I won't bring her on as a partner moemon (unless you all want me to, of course)
