It's my 15th chapter and I gotta good feeling about this one, I worked and studied for this one and I'll explain exactly what in this chapter I was studying for, because not only I want the character's act the way do, or at least try to make them act how they would in the show, but I want to make certain facts realistic too.
The story maybe mine but Dragon ball belongs to Akira Toriyama and Pokemon belongs to Satoshi Tajiri.
Do you want an important message? If you do, there's one in chapter 1.
It was the morning of the day Goten, Trunks, and Misty was going to the marine park, Misty maybe the most excited; however she was the only one keeping her and the boys from going. The cute red-head was asleep dreaming of the day, except there was a low chance that her sisters, friends, and Pokemon will appear out of nowhere and run into her unless they have great running into abilities like team rocket. Goten was all ready. Meanwhile, in West city, Trunks was already off in the sky to see his friends for the day with some zeni in his pocket for everyone.
"Come on Misty, wake up!" Goten tries to shake the sleeping Misty awake.
"No, five more minutes please," Misty whined in her sleep.
"But Misty, Trunks is on his way right now!" Goten reasoned with her, Misty woke up instantly rubbing her eyes in the process.
"W-what? Why is he coming now?" Misty wondered tiredly while wanting to know exactly why Trunks was coming at the very moment, she wouldn't even be able to get breakfast in her stomach.
"I don't know, I guess he wants to get an early start," Goten shrugged. The two kids got out of the room and went into the kitchen. The young boy sat on the table where his plate stood and it looked like he already started eating. Goten was about to finish his large plate of eggs and bacon, that he only considered a measly snack. Goku was eating a large stack of pancakes that nearly touched the ceiling of the house, he had to use a gallon of syrup to cover it all up in its good sweetness. Goku had to actually stand to fly up to the ceiling to eat from the top to bottom. Misty still couldn't believe Saiyans ate so much, she already saw Trunks and Goten made a bunch of restaurants close for whatever night they all went out, however she thought it was just a guy thing to eat so much.
'They are like bottomless pits that make Ash's look extremely shallow' Misty thought. 'or maybe even make a Snorlax lose in an eating competition very easily,' she continued to ramble in her own head. 'I wonder if Ash is Saiyan, after all, he has black hair like Goten's and an attitude like his as well, but then again Ash would be able to easily dodge my mallet, and team rocket would've stayed blasted off,' Misty was then snapped out of her thoughts by Goku.
"Yo..." Goku said with his mouth full then he swallowed his 9th or 10th pancake; no one was keeping track regardless on how bizarre it may be. "Misty, why don't you sit with us and grab a chair. We have plenty to eat." he insisted as he floated down to properly tell her.
"Are you sure?" Misty asked uncertainly looking at the man's and his son's plate.
"Believe it or not Misty we have plenty of food for everyone," Chichi gently told Misty as she fed her granddaughter with baby food as Pan sat in her feeding chair.
"We're in a hurry so I guess I'll have a snack b-" Misty started but was cut off by Chichi.
"Oh heavens no, you shall sit down and eat some cereal or something," Chichi ordered Misty, the mother lets the bowl hold both the baby food that seemed to be Pan's favorite thing to eat and the spoon that seemed to make a perfect airplane at the moment.
"I don't care if Trunks have to wait the whole day for you to eat, if you don't then you'll be starving, a snack bar won't simply cut it, and besides what kind of person would I be for letting such a sweet young lady starve?" Chichi persuaded Misty.
"I guess I'll have cereal," Misty finally said feeling nervous, next thing she knew was that a bowl was placed in front of her, she smiled at Chichi, and the mother took it as a 'thank you' Misty started to dig in, although she showed much better table manners to the two guys in front of her, who already finished what they just started.
When Misty was done she quickly changed into pink overalls with a gray t-shirt, brown sandals, and put her hair into a downside ponytail instead of her usual upper one. The clothes were Chichi's old clothes that she kept all these years for some reason.
Trunks were waiting out the door, then he saw his best friend drag out Misty by pulling on her arm and the door shutting on its own somehow. Goten was someone who didn't show patience, especially when it came down to neat animals no matter where they are.
"First thing first Goten let go of her before you literally rip off her arm!" Trunks started with yelling as Goten let go of Misty's arm, having her rub it in the process."Second Misty I just to say sorry about my dad." He continued changing his tone to much softer voice. Misty looked up from her sore arm and at Trunks.
"It's alright I kind of expected that from how everyone described him, including you," Misty assured him "I'm glad you did otherwise I'll be in the other world by now due to being scared to death." she joked. Trunks smiled at her, Goten smirked at both of his friend's actions towards each other.
"Yeah, no worries my mom yelled at him, and if you were there you'll be feeling sorry for him." Trunks emphasize on the word 'him' stating that Bulma knows how to get under the most arrogant man's skin.
Misty laughed. "I guess your mother really knows how to handle your father."
"Yeah," Trunks decided to end Vegeta's little blow out from the day before and move on to the marine park."Aside from that let's head to the marine park!" Trunks finally said making feel relief run over him because he doesn't have to wait a minute longer.
"Hold on," Goten said making Misty's face went deadpanned at him and Trunks' physically face palming himself. Goten was waiting so impatiently and yet he was now making them wait another second.
The son of Goku and Chichi opened the door to his house, "Dad, mom I'm leaving to the marine park with Misty," Goten called through the opened door.
"Okay dear have fun, make sure you shut the door," Chichi replied back.
"Bring me back something to eat while you're at it," Goku called to Goten, it made Goten shake his head smiling. Goten shut the door just like his mother ordered him to do and went towards his friends.
"Okay, now that's done. Misty hop on my back so we can this show started!" Goten exclaimed and started levitating in the air (Superman style) that way Misty can hop and ride him like a flying horse.
"Can't we just walk?" Misty whined. The boys looked at each other confusingly, then back at her.
"No, it's too far away, besides, now that you know that we can fly, things will be much easier from now on," Trunks explained.
Misty can trust them, it was just she never rode on anyone as if they were a flying bike or something like that, in fact up until the day before Misty met them, she didn't know anyone who can actually levitate and even though she knew them for about 2 months, she didn't know up until the day before that they can fly. She sighed in hesitation and hopped on Goten, and then next second all three of them were off.
Trunks were flying right beside Goten and he chuckled as he examines Misty's priceless expression.
"So, I take it this your first time flying," Trunks asked sarcastically while talking through the wind, Misty's eyes were closed and her hands was gripping tightly to the back of Goten's shirt. Trunks were looking at the ground as he was the only one who knew the location of the marine park.
"Trunks, I don't think it's a good time right now so please talk to me when we're on the ground," Misty pleaded to him as she kept her eyes closed, she really wanted to focus on staying still with no distractions.
"What, if you're worried about falling off you don't have to, we'll catch you," Goten chimed in.
"Knowing you guys, I'm not taking any chances!" She replied to the boys. Both boys cracked up a little.
"Are you afraid we might play 'Misty ball'?" joked a partly meaning it Trunks. Misty wanted to look at him to say what she had on her mind but she continued keeping her eyes closed, not knowing where to face and mumbled,"Maybe".
"Come on Misty, you're acting much more of a wimp than the time you saw that spider Goten showed you," Trunks over exaggerated, nothing really feared the girl more than bugs, it was the fact death seems to be much less of a scary thing than little tiny bugs that he assumed she would be more frightened.
"At least I'm not afraid of..." Misty tried to shoot back something but couldn't think of anything Trunks was afraid of.
"Can't think of anything can ya?" Trunks taunted, smirking. Misty growled in the direction she heard his voice from.
"Just leave me alone!" Misty faced away from Trunks' direction.
"Fine we're here anyways," Trunks said. Misty had an urge to open her eyes but refused to let go until she was safe on the sweet ground at that moment she realized if there were any reason why to love ground type pokemon more than flying types this would be it.
Goten gave her a short piggy-back ride when he stood vertically in the air and making his landing, he set her down as she opened her eyes to see the marine park.
The group walked into the marine park, there was no one at the front, so they just walked in. The first thing they saw was a sign that had a picture of a black and white whale, they decided to go there first.
In the exhibit, there were two men who looked like they were discussing a solution as if there's something wrong. Misty ignored the men and saw the most magnificent creature she has ever seen, it looked just like the sign, except cuter. Misty seemed to love watching it swim around and around like she did with her Pokemon. She did miss them and her sisters but she mustn't worry too much.
"Wow," She said breathlessly. Misty admired the creature so much that she didn't notice the men walking up to her and her friends.
"Hey kids what do you think you're doing here, this area is off limits," one of the men said.
"Sorry, but no one was up at front nor at the gates of getting here, so we just came in," Goten explained simply.
"We have money, here take it," Trunks added while trying to give the bills to the man in front of him, he took it after some hesitation.
"Stay as long as you want," grumbled the other guy, counting the bills that were given to him.
"You know you really should use that to hire some workers because it seems to me that there's no security or nothing." Trunks said smartly.
"Look, kid, we have enough workers it's just everyone who isn't in charge of feeding duty or cleaning duty..." The man was cut off by Goten who was laughing at the word 'duty' Trunks shook his head in disbelief at his friend's immature actions.
"As I was saying," The man continued while he cleared his throat, "Anyone who wasn't taking care of the other animals is helping this killer whale," The man finished his explanation.
"Killer? There's no way the little cutie in there is a killer!" Misty paid attention to the men who made her feel like she was being insulted, which made her refused to believe that killer whales are killers.
"I'm not saying they're bad creatures, little missy, that just what they're called or you can call them 'Orcas', but they do eat all kind of animals, which is why people call them killers," The man explained to her.
"I think I'll go with Orcas, because it's a name that doesn't have the word 'killer' in it," Misty put her foot down. She then looked back at the majestic creature who was looking back up at Misty and making noises as if the whale was singing a song, which was a symphony in Misty's opinion.
"That still wouldn't explain why the marine park is open," Trunks brought the conversation back on track.
"We kind of lost track of everything ever since we brought this Orca here, you see we were supposed to open later on, but everyone was so worried about this mammal here, that no one seems to remember the plan to keep the marine park closed," The second man explained.
Misty turned to the man and smiled and gave him a face that said 'I would lose track of every ounce of my focus if I had the chance of spending time with this wonderful beauty' Misty could hardly imagine it.
"You see, we just rescued this Orca from the sea, and since she was without her mother, we had to bring her here, and we got men out there finding her parent's with her sound that recorded, however, it's been a week and no luck, yet it's a good thing she's old enough to be without her mother nursing her," The first man told the story while adding some good news to it.
"This place use to kill or abuse whales and make them put on performances, with a bunch of other mess-up stuff," Trunks gave out his history lesson from what he knows about the place while facing his friends.
Both men nodded, "It's true, but we're not like that anymore, not up until 10 years ago on our 25th anniversary, instead we train whales to be released in the wild someday, in other words, this place is more of rescue and protect sanctuary slash medical center for ocean animals, " The first man said.
"Yeah, even though only some of the whales that were born in captivity are successfully released in the wild, and now we're trying to train this baby Orca here, but not even our best trainers can't get her trust," The second man revealed the problem.
"What about the whales that were first here?" Goten asked ignoring the problem.
"They died Goten, why don't read a book or something once in a while or better yet take a clue," Trunks told his friend. Goten seemed a little upset that Trunks basically blurt that out like it was no big deal.
"Also sometimes whales attack their trainers and drown them, which was the main reason why we finally opened our eyes," The second man informed them.
Goten was a little taken aback, "Gosh that's dark," ignoring him, Misty then spoke up.
"It's a good thing you didn't think of these creatures as being the bad guys, otherwise I'm sure it would've took longer to turn this place in what it is today," Misty said smiling turned facing towards the men.
"That's because they're not, young lady," The man started gestured the other man with yet another story.
"We misunderstood, they're the good guys. Besides that bringing in a very social and huge creature in both weight and size and expect them to do shows by just a snap of a finger wasn't the best idea, and it's thanks to the true Orca lovers that truly gave us the big slap in the face," The first man said with a chuckle.
"Yep, and that the fact killer whales live much longer in the wild and have never been documented nor recorded to attack a human in the wild as well, and even saving us from sharks like their relatives/prey the dolphins," The second finished what the first man started.
"They sound like very smart creatures," Misty couldn't help it but her smile grew more, then something caught her eye and noticed something was wrong, the whale's tail seem to be stuck in between the gates at the bottom of the exhibit pool, without thinking twice and having anyone stopping her, Misty jumped in the pool to save the baby Orca, and quickly push the gates with her left hand and pull the large tail out with the right. She freed the creature and saw her swim back up to the surface for the same reason she was swimming up for.
Misty went up back up to the surface to take a breath a fresh air. She looked at the creature swimming around freely and making small jumps, then she went back to the small platform where her friends were waiting for her.
I was studying for Orcas and I thought it would make sense since Misty is a water Pokemon trainer and I wanted to get some fact straight that way you actually know the truth, the marine park I made is my own place but I want it to be real, and if there's really a place like it, I hope to visit it someday. Yes I know there's a SeaWorld, but I know they do show performances, so it's not the same place. By the way, Orcas are my favorite animal of all time and you can thank the 4 free willy movies. R.I.P Keiko, also Bindi R.I.P to your father Steve Irwin, and thanks for being part of free Willy 4, it's an inspiration to this part of the story. Tilly, we'll miss you and I hope you and Keiko are swimming freely in the sky. If humans hadn't trap you Tilly in the first place then Dawn, Keltie, and Daniel would be still alive but still R.I.P to them as well and lets hope for your freedom to be reborn. Also, SeaWorld did make the Orcas they have now to be the last generation yet I still want their word to be official even when we're all long gone.
I know I'm mixing you up with everything but it's the way I type.
Please review and favor and if you plan on commenting to anything at all please show consideration and be the bigger person and stick up for others. I know doing all the above makes it confusing on what to do under the circumstances, but that's up to you on what you should mostly do. I recommend try to balance it all together and figure out a way as if we're trying to come with a solution on how to catch em all or defeat the deadly enemy after another. Let them know you'll report them first and if they continue being mean just report them afterward.
