Hatching and Prenatal Care

"Give me your hand."
Carlos looked at her in confusion before she rolled her eyes and grabbed his wrist herself. She began to push the buttons on his school provided poketch before releasing her hold on him. He glanced down at the blue screen wondering what she had done.
"My poketch number is in there but you will only contact me in cases of emergencies regarding the egg is that clear?"
The raven hair boy just smiled a toothy grin in acceptance but decided to tease her a bit by adding, "Aww but what if I want to ask you for a date then-!" Her foot suddenly collided with his chest knocking him backwards into the flooring. Plusle had jumped clear of the attack and was leaning over her trainer making sure he hadn't hit his head too hard before glaring at the girl. Umbreon however, shot it a rather nasty look causing the smaller electric type to burrow itself into Carlo's jacket for protection.
"There are no what if's, do I make myself clear?"
He nodded still surprised at how he had managed to hit the floor so quickly without him realizing it at all. The rest of the class had huddled in the back growing fearful at the Vice President who seemed disinterested with the other students. Mr. Rades had returned carrying a few boxes with him that contained the course materials and placed them on the front desk. Of course he was oblivious to the actions that had been conducted while he was away but merely realized, "Oh my! It seems class is over. Well then I hope you all formed a schedule in the free time given and got to know each other better. Ah and Livi I really appreciate that you are taking Carlos under your wing for the meantime. I do feel bad that you'll be taking care of two eggs now." The two began to chat about the assignment here and there and other topics that Carlos couldn't exactly understand at the moment. He went back to his seat, taking the speckled egg in his lap and admired the smooth texture of it. He hadn't even noticed that someone had slid their way next to him, "She sure is scary isn't she? I mean she's pretty tough though right?" the boy speaking had brown hair and matching eyes, nothing too special but his appearance made him easy to recognize. "My name is Orange Skylar." He reached his hand out to Carlos offering a handshake which was accepted.
"Carlos Balestida. What did you mean by scary?"
"Well I was signing up for clubs this year and the Trainer Fan Club rushed me with all sorts of pamphlets and I had held on to this one." Orange pulled out a small booklet with the school emblem on the front reading, Liberty Gardens Trainer Fan Club in gold. He flipped through it until finding the page he needed and pushed it over for Carlos to see. Plusle had since popped her head out to see what the two males were looking at. On the page was a collage of photos, some obviously taken in secret, and a record of her history at the Academy. Most of the photos were of her with her Umbreon but somewhere in the mix were a Flygon and an Absol. Carlos began to scan the page taking in the information.

"They have all of this on just one person?" Carlos whistled eying the 9 and changing it to an 8 in his head.
"Not just her either. They have one on every Student Council Member and any major League Contender." Orange nodded glancing over the pages in his mind.
Before either of them could realize it the bell had rung signaling that it was time to change classes. The two exchanged numbers on their poketchs and agreed to stay in touch. Orange had even let Carlos keep the fan book because he thought the Student Council Secretary was a looker. Little would Orange realize that their meeting would begin his start into the Liberty League. Of course it was the same for Carlos but in a different way. The speckled egg he now carried a bit less than carefully would decide everything for this point on.
Academy Day 1/365
Class Skip
9:00 am
Rein leaned comfortably against the Arcanine's body as he dozed off under the shade of the tree they had found. Mightyena lay comfortably alongside Rein with his head posed on her leg as she scratched his ears fondly. In her other hand was her poketch which she had decided to fill with digital games and the like to waste class time. Speaking of class, she wasn't even there right now. Instead of going to Poke History she thought it would be best to have some downtime and maybe even just skip the next class.
"Air Slash!"
Mightyena instantly was to his feet standing over its trainer casting protect before the attack hit. Rein was also to her feet as quickly as she could trying to figure out who even bothered trying to challenge them and was met with a girl who had a Togekiss hovering closely beside her. Throwing a disgusted look she snapped, "What the hell are you doing?"
The raven haired girl standing opposite offered a confident laugh, "I was always told to give a warning shot before an arrest!
"Warning shot?" Mightyena still stood on guard wary of the two other pokemon.
"You are aware that it is against school policy article 10, motion b, and rule number 16 to have pokemon under false appearances?"
Could this girl know about Zoroark? She couldn't possibly have figured it out! Instead of admitting it right away Rein crossed her arms over her chest and smirked, "What are you trying to say hm?"
"I mean have your pretty little Zoroark show it's real self. It's nothing you need to be hiding here."
That last comment actually was taken to offense.
"Oh really now? Sure, sure you caught me but what are you going to do about it then shorty?" Rein taunted as Zoroark assumed its actual appearance in its foxy like state.
"S-Shorty!?
"Oh did I strike a nerve sweetie?"
Megan began to feel her face heat up in anger at the comment. She wasn't short at all! She was a very healthy 5'5 and that height was allowed in the International Police and that was all that mattered. Pulling out a black notepad from a pocket in her school jacket Megan began to read,
"Reinforce Yukimura, third year, outstanding principal visit record, number of absence from classes: 15, GPA of 2.1 and school record holder for number of expulsions! I will catch you and bring you to justice!"
Academy Day 1/365
Class Skip
9:00 am
"Now can anyone tell me the three basic strategies a trainer should use when encountered with a single battle offer?" Ellie faced her class after writing down a few notes on the board. However before she was able to obtain an answer a loud crash interrupted from outside causing the windows to shake slightly. Her Pikachu who was settled on her left shoulder glanced over at the window when a Togekiss raced past causing the class to quickly rush to the glass to see what the commotion was about. Ellie was displeased with all hell about the disturbance and quickly opened the window to see what trainer had decided to skip class and disrupt another. It was good that they were on the ground floor as well. "What is going on here? Has Arceus decided to bring catastrophe on us yet or are you both just stupid enough to be caught battling without a professor's permission?" The two trainers in question did not stop their battle as Arcanine let out a searing flamethrower across the lawn.
Almost half the school had evacuated their classrooms to claim witness to the scene. Even the professors didn't seem to want to step in and stop the fray and instead allowed their students the break to watch their fellow peers. Carlos had even met back up with Orange and was watching from the third floor balcony.
"Zoroark, Shadow Ball!" the illusion pokemon complied sending the orb flying towards Togekiss but missing and instead heading straight for a group of onlookers. Amongst them stood Carlos and Orange who would be unable to move out of the way in time. Carlos could feel the egg in his hands slipping from his grip as the attack hit the side of the concrete and the railing causing half of the structure to begin to crumble causing him and Orange to lose footing and fall into the battle below. Before either of the two could feel the ground rush to meet them they were swept up and back into the air.
"Fly Flygon!" The dragon cried quite pleased with himself that he had successfully captured both trainers as he was requested to. It landed safely on the grass lawn off to the side of the two battling trainers to allow them to dismount.
"Give me the egg now."
That voice sounded familiar.
"L-Livi?"
"No it's a pokemon using telepathy, yes it's me." She rolled her eyes and returned Flygon back to its poke ball.
Orange, still reeling from the free fall realized that it had been her to save them and offered a bright smile, "Thank you for saving us! Your Flygon really helped us out there."
Instead of motioning she had received the thank you, Livi simply plucked the speckled egg from Carlos's hand and held it against her protectively, "You," she pointed at Carlos, "You will go and stop their battle or I will not return the egg and you'll ultimately fail Mr. Rade's assignment."
"Wait! Why do I have to do that?"
"Because I obviously can't trust you to have the strength and care for this egg now can I?"
"What makes you think I can possibly do something about…about that?" He looked over just as a Mightyena and Arcanine collided in a double take down.
"Because if you succeed I'll send a good word in for your entrance to the Liberty League."
