Chapter 7 – Bubbles Appears! Friend or Foe?!

Team Ace had just finished their newest Mission in the Cave of Shadows and the three have arrived back at Destiny Town and they were very hungry

"So guys shall we go get a bite to eat from the Café" Tommy asked his two friends who both nodded with a hungry look on their faces.

"Yeah, I am so hungry I could eat a Rapidash" Sammy said as her stomach growled.

"Yeah but wouldn't that burn I mean it is a flaming horse after all" Megan said with a smile at her hungry Chespin friend.

"It's a figure of Speech Meg, I wouldn't really eat a Rapidash" Sammy replied with a smirk.

"Well let's go to the Café and have something to eat so you girls can stop bickering like an old married couple" Tommy said causing both girls to blush at the comment.

"Yeah I suppose so" Megan replied with a grin and Sammy nodded in agreement.

The Trio walked down the path to the Café which had not been there long but it quickly became their new hangout whether it was to eat, drink or just hang around.

They entered the Café and saw the owner Spinda at the desk writing orders down, the three Pokémon approached her to take their orders, Tommy rang the bell and she looked up and gave them a welcoming smile.

"Hello there how may I help you" Spinda asked the three young Pokémon with a smile.

"Well what would you like Guys" Tommy asked his two friends that were stood next to him.

"I would like a Sausage Roll" Sammy asked the Spinda

"and I would like Oran Berry Soup" Megan also asked her.

"I would also like a Sausage Roll" Tommy finished and Spinda gave them a nod and a smile.

"Ok that will be 70 Poké Please" Spinda asked happily as Tommy pulled out his money and gave it to her and with that she walked over and grabbed the Sausage Rolls and the Soup and handed it to them.

"Thanks for ordering from Spinda's Super duper awesome Café Yay" Spinda cheered happily as the three Pokémon walked over to a table and started eating.

After eating they noticed a waiter and called him over, he was a Froakie, a blue and white water frog.

"yes how may I help you and what might your names be" The Froakie asked the three Pokémon.

"I'm Tommy and these are my friends Sammy and Megan" Tommy informed the froakie as he pointed to his friends.

Megan could it be? Could it be that Megan and Sammy as well I recognize them, aha just like I thought now to put the plan in motion although I've never seen the Pikachu before. It suddenly struck him, he had finally found her at last.

"Um are you ok" Megan asked the daydreaming Froakie

"huh, oh I'm fine, yes absolutely fine" Froakie grinned at them.

"What's your name" Sammy asked the grinning bubble frog.

"Oh I'm Bubbles, I work here part time as a waiter" The Froakie apparently called Bubbles replied with a smile and something struck Megan Why did he seem so familiar did she know him, there was just something about him that seemed so familiar to her but she couldn't figure out why he seems so familiar.

"So anyway could I possibly hang out with you, honestly I don't have any friends and I would love to spend time with you and get to know you all properly, I'm new to the neighbourhood you see" Bubbles asked the Trio with a Smile.

"Sure and would you mind taking our plates back to the counter for us" Tommy said as he handed Bubbles their Plates.

"Ok after I return this to spinda would you mind letting me walk with you guys, my work day is pretty much over" Bubbles asked the young Pikachu.

"Sure, we would love you to" Tommy told the enthusiastic Froakie but something seemed odd about Bubbles but Megan couldn't seem to figure it out.

"Great well I'll be back in a mo" Bubbles said as he walked over to the counter to return the plates to Spinda.

Megan leaned forward and whispered to her Pikachu and Chespin friends "Doesn't something seem odd about this Pokémon"

"Why would you think that after all he seems so nice" Sammy replied with a look of disbelief "Don't you trust him"

"W-Well…" but before Megan could continue Bubbles had returned with a Smile on his face.

"Ready to go" the young Froakie asked them still Smiling.

"Yeah c'mon let's go" Tommy beamed at the other Pokémon as they started walking out of the Small Cave waving goodbye to a very happy Spinda.

…

"So how long have you been living in Destiny Town?" Tommy inquired.

"Huh, Not long only a couple of days but I have to say the town is so beautiful and the people are so nice" Bubbles replied to a curious Pikachu.

"So you must like it here then" Megan asked him, she still wasn't sure whether to trust him or not.

"I don't just like it, I absolutely love it well I have never lived somewhere so peaceful and calm" Bubbles grinned at the trio as they continued to walk.

"So Bubbles are you an Explorer" Sammy asked the Froakie causing him to gasp and shiver.

"What's wrong" Tommy asked their new friend who was shivering from head to toe, it wasn't cold so why was he shivering.

"Nothing, I used to be an Explorer but I stopped being one when I climbed Goodra's Peak" Froakie sighed as he muttered something under his breath.

"ARE YOU SERIOUS, You attempted to climb Goodra's Peak?" Sammy asked Bubbles and he nodded "No Exploration Team has ever conquered that Mountain"

"Wow sounds so awesome we should go and see if we can be the first to conquer Goodra's Peak" Tommy blurted out causing everyone except Bubbles to gasp in disbelief.

"You aren't Serious Tommy, it's really dangerous are you sure we're ready for that kind of challenge" Megan gasped thinking he was just joking as he replied "I'm absolutely positive"

"I for one think it's a great Idea and I can accompany you and if we manage to conquer it I could become an explorer again" Bubbles said with a grin on his blue face.

"Yeah It will give us really good experience" Sammy beamed at the others and Megan had to admit they were right this would be really good for them.

"Your right well when should we set out" Megan asked the Team with a Smile.

"How about tomorrow, It would be the best day to do it since I don't have work tomorrow" Bubbles replied and the others nodded "Well let's meet here tomorrow then see ya tomorrow guys"

And with that Team Ace parted ways with Bubbles until tomorrow when they will take on the biggest challenge of their lives, are they really ready for this and what is Bubbles hiding, find out as the journey continues.
