{A Few Days Later}

Aria's Pov: I was outside, watering the flowers as some wild Flabebe and Floette where playing in the flowers, some wild Pokemon would hangout in the garden and sometimes some rare Pokemon would come and play, then I saw Knights and Link picking flowers and making flowers crowns,

"good morning Aria" Courtney said as she walked out of the front door and into the garden with Epona following closely,

"morning Courtney" I said with a smile and then I saw Lotus helping Crimson to come outside with everyone, Crimson still has a broken leg but he's able to walk a bit, thanks to Courtney, Courtney has been looking after him ever since he got hurt,

"huh, a letter and it's address to me" Courtney said as she checked the mailbox and she pulled out a letter, I stopped watering the flowers and I put the watering can on the ground, then I walked over to Courtney and Epona,

"what does it say Courtney?" I asked as Courtney opened the letter,

"It says here, Dear Courtney Mori, I wish for you to visit me in my lab in Luminous City, I've heard you have Pokemon that have the power to Mega Evolve, I've been doing some research in Mega Evolution and I would like it if you could help me in my research, signed Professor Sycamore" Courtney said as she started to zone out, Knights seemed to notice her zoning out as well because he walked over and tried to snap her out of her trance,

"Courtney are you okay" Knights said concerned about Courtney,

"huh oh sorry I zoned out and yes I'm fine" Courtney said reassuring us but I knew she wasn't okay, I could sense negative energy coming off her. Courtney went inside to talk with her mother about the letter while the rest of us were outside, I was sitting in a flower patch playing my harp, when all of a sudden I felt something on my head so I looked up and I saw that Link had put a flower crown on my head and he was wearing one two,

"do you like your flower crown Aria? Knights showed me how to make one" Link asked,

"yes I love it! Thank you Link" I replied as link went and gave one to Crimson while Knights gave one to Epona and Lotus, then I heard the door open to reveal Courtney with a smile on her face,

"alright Link, Aria, Knights, Epona and Lotus get ready because we'll be leaving for Luminous City soon" Courtney said as Crimson was trying to get his balance on the crutches once more,

"please let me come to Luminous City with you" Crimson said as she made his way over to Courtney,

"I don't think that's a good idea Crimson, you need rest and your leg is still broken, I'm sorry but" but before Courtney could finish her sentence, Lotus started talking,

"Lilli-Lilligant!" Lotus said trying to explain to Courtney,

"I see! You want to stay here and look after Crimson don't you Lotus" Courtney said being able to understand what Lotus said and Lotus nodded as she gave Courtney a hug, after a few minutes of preparation, we are finally ready to depart for Luminous City, Courtney's mother decided to look after Lotus and Crimson while she was gone for a few days, we packed a few supplies because you never know when you find a rare Pokemon,

Courtney's Pov: after we said goodbye to my mother, Lotus and Crimson, we made our way to Aquacorde and onto route 2 and that's when I felt like we were being followed then I started to zone out again thinking about the first time I mega evolved a Pokemon of mine, then I snapped out of the trance when I heard some grass rustling behind me and as I turned around I found a Eevee all hurt and injured but it was also poison, I ran over to the Eevee and picked it up before it passed out on the ground and it was wearing a pink ribbon so I believe it belongs to a trainer nearby,

"here you go little Eevee" I said as I grabbed a Oran and a Pecha berry from my bag, I kneed down so I would be able to cut the berries on a nearby rock, then I chopped the berries up and I gave the chopped berries to the Eevee, the Eevee ate the berries and then Eevee jumped out of my hands and started to jump around. I then heard a male voice as he was getting closer,

"Aura! Aura there you are! Your not poisoned anymore, thank goodness" said a boy as he walked out of some bushes as a Riolu, Misdreavus and a Shuppet walked beside the boy, Eevee then ran into him arms as he gave the Eevee a hug, he had black hair with one white streak on his fringe, blue eyes, he wore light grey jeans, black sneakers, a long black shirt, a short sleeved white shirt over the top of the black one and he had a Mega Bracelet,

"are you the ones who helped Aura?" He asked,

"yes we are" I said as I stood up "I'm Courtney, this is Link the Ralts, Aria the Kirlia, Knights the Gallade and Epona the Ponyta",

"Please let me introduce myself to you, my name is Psy, these are my Pokemon, Aura the Eevee, Lucina the Riolu, Mage the Misdreavus and Marionette the Shuppet, thank you for helping Aura" Psy said with a welcoming smile, I could tell all of his Pokemon were females but then Marionette the shuppet flew out of behind Psy's back and it looks like Marionette was scared,

"your welcome! But how did Aura get poisoned in the first place?" I asked worried.

"we were battling some people dressed in all red, who called themselves Team Flare, I was battling against a Houndour with Mage and the next thing I know see Aura getting attacked by Poison Sting from a wild Beedrill, she ran off and the guy I was battling wouldn't let me leave to find her, so I used Mage's Confuse Ray and then I ran off to find Aura" Psy said as Mage flew up to me and gave me a smile,

"STOP RIGHT THERE YOU LITTLE TWERP!" said a female voice so we both turned around to see a man and a woman dressed in red,

"using Confuse Ray and then running away to find your weak Eevee, how cute and annoying" said the man "prepare for another battle!",

"you two are selfish and horrible people...if you want a battle then here's a double battle" I said as Psy looked at me,

"a-are you sure Courtney?" Psy asked "I don't want anyone else to get involved",

"everything is fine Psy, besides no one should have to battle someone who is rude and arrogant as these two, who think they're on fire and I know for a fact I'll doused your fire with the help of my Pokemon...COME ON OUT AQUAMAID!" I said as I threw the Pokeball of my female Dewgong nicknamed Aquamaid,

"Dew-Dewgong!" said Aquamaid as she was ready to fight, as she wore a shell bell around her neck,

"alright then, let's go Mage!" Psy said as Mage flew in fount of him and her happy smile turned into a frightening smirk,

"okay go Zubat!" said the man,

"go Houndour!" said the woman and the battle commence as Mage started off with Power Gem, Aquamaid used Ice Beam on the Power Gem and they turned into harden rock ice shards, the attack was a direct hit on Houndour as Zubat used Air Slash and Houndour used Flamethrower as they aimed at Mage however Aquamaid let the Flamethrower hit her as her Thick Fat ability activated when the Flamethrower hit her, as Mage got hit with Air Slash. Aquamaid used Water Pulse on the Houndour and Mage then used Psychic to defeat the remaining Zubat and the battle was over, then the man and woman returned their Pokemon and they ran off into Santalune Forest.
