A Tale of Two Rivals

by Grandpas Girl Kim 326

a fanfiction about Drew following May on her own journey throughout the pokémon contests of the Hoenn and Kanto regions. Drew also begins to think of May as more than just a rival for them in this story. I know this plotline had already been done, but I have rewritten it into a more family-oriented version which keeps in check with the rating of the show. (being revised and edited)

19. Hot Chamomile Tea VS Hot Cocoa

now, this chapter would most likely count for being the shortest one of them all. I suppose it will, too, that is, unless I manage to write an even shorter chapter than this one, if that's possible. you never know, though. this chapter is a full hundred-ninety-four words worth of storyline added to my Pokémon fanfiction, 'A Tale of Two Rivals', based loosely on a fellow blogger's own fanfiction, 'The Girl With the Red Bandana', written by someone who writes under the penname of IWriteFandomStuff. I promise all of my loyal readers that I am just paraphrasing and not directly copying what IWriteFandomStuff had written in his/her fanfiction.

disclamation: I do not own Pokémon in any way, shape, or form; be it the anime, the games, or the manga. all ownership rights of everything there is to all three of the series are reserved solely for Satoshi Tajiri and Nintendo. also, as I had said just before disclaiming this the series itself, I do not even own this fanfiction's own storyline. the rights of ownership in this fanfiction's storyline are reserved solely for another blogger on this very website under the penname of IWriteFandomStuff. I am just rewriting his/her fanfiction into a different fanfiction with a more family-oriented rating that I happen to believe better fits in with the rating of the actual show. I believe that I also said that I am just paraphrasing the words from 'The Girl With the Red Bandana'.

Then, she took a slight sip of her hot cocoa, slowly and steadily, just before putting her mug back down. I think that she was drinking the hot chocolate to avoid caffeine because of her need to adjust to the time differences between Sinnoh and Kanto.

I did not know why, but for one reason or another, when Soledad had taken the sip from her hot cocoa, it had in turn prompted me to take a sip from my own mug full of a different kind of decaffeinated beverage. My nose just crinkled at the taste of it, just not in a bad way, however, like one would have originally thought. The taste of my own decaffeinated beverage had just been a tad unfamiliar to me. I suppose that I could simply expect chamomile tea to be an acquired taste for me since I would normally drink coffee.

After a few sips of my tea, however, I could potentially see myself drinking it once again in the future. I know I was partial to coffee, but I think chamomile tea could have easily made for an excellent choice in a nightly beverage to me.
