Chapter 3: The Trouble With Ally

"Go Fennekin!" I cried.

My little fox popped out of the ball and glared back at me. "Arff Rarrf!" It cried.

"It's getting annoyed by you constantly calling on it. Give it a break." Ally shot at me.

"You never know when a wild pokemon will attack you." I shot back at Ally. She just rolled her chocolate brown eyes and shook her head.

"Arff Rarrf!" Fennekin sprang at something in the tall grass that I couldn't make out.

"Pika!" A yellow mouse sprang out, followed by Fennekin.

"A pikachu! Seriously!" Ally cried. "Why are you always lucky. If only I had my poke balls."

"Fennekin, scratch!" Fennekin obeyed my orders, and the pikachu started to weaken. I threw a pokeball at it, as my mom always taught me, and caught the yellow mouse.

I picked the ball up and extended my arm out. "Here you go." I winked at her and tossed the pokeball too her.

Ally caught it and stared at it in awe. "Seriously?"

"Yep."

She looked at me, and then turned her back at me and kept walking deeper into the forest. "Whatever."

Another rustle was heard and we both turned to our left to see a small red bird flying around our heads.

"A fletchling!" I threw my pokeball at it, knowing that they were considerably weak, for my mom owned one to keep 'fire in her blood' as she says.

"Another pokemon caught." I held it out to Ally. "I already have a fire pokemon. You can have it."

"I don't want it." She grumbled, and started tossing the pokeball that contained pikachu in-between her hands.

I turned back to the others, who I almost forgot were even there, and held it out. "You guy's want it?"

"Sure!" Trish took the pokeball from my hands, and started petting it as off it was the pokemon itself.

"You sure it's in here?" A voice spoke from deep in the trees surrounding us. I turned to the other four who didn't even notice. I looked back and shook my head. Must've been nothing.

"Yes. It's right up there." A second voice spoke, I turned back to see that my friends were far ahead, but my curiosity got the best of me, and I wandered into the dense foliage.

Many pokemon that would've been helpful passed by, but I didn't get any; I was focusing on staying up with the two unfamiliar voices.

"Found it!" The first voice shouted.

"Quiet, Lillian! No-one can know were back here." The second voice said so quietly I had to strain my ears to hear properly.

"Sorry, Malva." Lillian spoke again quietly.

I horde of Fletchlings started to fill the area, and I ran in fear of the two noticing me.

I finally got back to the trail of the forest, and was looking which way to go.

"Austin! There you are!" Dez was running towards me from the right. "Everyone is ahead, you must have fell back or something. Come on! Ally is in this huge fight with another chick!"

"Okay." I looked back to where I came from, wondering what Malva and Lillian were doing. I followed Dez to Ally.

"Pikachu!" The little mouse I gave ally was currently beating the pulp out of a purple haired ladie's, who was dressed in mostly red, tiny little cub.

"Argh!" The lady screeched once ally beat her. She glared at her. "I will never forget this." She abruptly turned, her wild purple hair flailing everywhere.

"Yes!" Ally high fived the others, but when she got to me, she looked at me with disgust and turned around.

"So, were almost to Santalune City." Trish pointed out. "What are you guy's gonna do?"

"I'm going to try at the gym. I could beat the leader, I think." Ally said.

"Me too!" I said, not knowing what the heck a gym is.

Everyone laughed. "That's very funny." Matt laughed. "Newbie challenging a gym. Ha!"

"I can so do it!" I stood up for myself.

"Sorry Austin, your like my best friend now, but you winning a challenge at a gym is virtually impossible." Dez told me.

"NO it isn't." I spoke. "I will beat whatever this gym is, and you guy's will be proven wrong."

"Whatever!" The said while walking out of the forest. Ally stood where she was, and looked down at the pokeball that contained pikachu in her hands. She looked back up at me. "Here." She threw the pokeball at me. "You'll need it. And I believe that you can beat the leader."

I caught pikachu in my hands. "What?"

"Take the complement, bleach head. It's the only you will get from me." Ally turned and walked out of the forest also.

I DO NOT OWN ANYTHING BUT PLOT AND OC
