I DON'T OWN ANYTHING

Touya's pov

" Dewott, razor shell, and carracosta, defend it !" carracosta brought his hands in front of him to defend himself, ' his defence is getting better, ' I observed. It has been a day since we came to nimbasa city, and I have been making sure to come at route 4 for training. 'I need to be more stronger ' I can't fall behind cheren, it is important to win the badges quickly and to think practically.

' You are right ' I remember saying this to cheren after our match yesterday, ' I can't protect everyone, but if there is a chance, even small chance... if someone provides it to me, then I will protect everyone of you, ' after that he didn't said anything but just smirked. I took a diary which I have been carrying since the start, " dewott, herdier, carracosta and munna, come here, " I called them and they gathered around me.

I took out the pen and wrote their names in an order I caught them, " dewott your attacks are improving and carracosta so is your defence, " they looked happy about their achievements for now, " but, you still have to improve them further, " they all nodded in agreement, " so, munna and herdier, we will begin with you two," suddenly something came and hit me on my leg which caused me to fell on my knees, "ouch!" I exclaimed and turned to see what exactly hit me.

It was small and in weird colour, " what was that ?" I took out the pokedex and it showed me the information on the pokemon. It is a sandile, a ground and dark type, " but,..." I looked at him and then again in my pokedex, "why the colour -? Oh are you shiny !" it was my first time seeing a shiny, " but we are far from the desert resort..." he suddenly jumped to attack me with his bite attack but stopped mid- air, munna has stopped him.

" You want to fight ?" I asked, he attacked with sandstorm. I quickly closed my eyes, " dewott, use water pulse, " dewott attacked, and sandile fell down but not fainted, " so you can still fight ? heh, makes it more fun, herdier, " he looked at me and nodded.

Sandile charged forward, " herdier, use crunch, " both the pokemons attacked each other with crunch. Sandile took more damage than herdier because of the size and difference in their levels. Suddenly, sandile started glowing," 'it is evolving !' his form changed and now he was standing on two feet, I took out the pokedex and read the data about him, he evolved into krokorok.

He used dig, " herdier, stay focused on his movements, " he came out from right side, "herdier use rock tomb, " he used but krokorok dodged it and used crunch again. I grit the teeth, ' think about a strategy touya !' I tried thinking of a move that will be effective but before that krokorok again tried using crunch but herdier dodged it.

" Herdier, use dig ! " I ordered, he went underground and the krokorok followed, I smirked ' as planned, ' " herdier, giga impact !" in few seconds krokorok was thrown out of the hole, " herdier, use crunch !" he did and it made him weak enough. " Okay, " I mumbled, " go, pokeball !" krokorok was caught off guard and was now successfully captured by me. I called him out and he gave me an angry look.

" Are you annoyed that I caught you ?" he looked towards herdier in anger, " did you wanted to continue fighting ?" he nodded, "what if I told you that you will get to fight pokemons even stronger than him ?" he gave me a side glance and then again looked away, "you, will be able to fight really stronger pokemons than him, " he turned to me, "interested ?" he hesitated but nodded, ' great,' I sighed .

" Oh, found you after all !" a very familiar voice called, I turned around, " it seems you are doing well, touya, " professor juniper said, " it has been a while " I said, she looked behind me, "you caught a shiny krokorok !" she exclaimed and went near him and patted him, his face wasn't visible but he didn't showed any intentions to attack, " yes, just before you arrived, " I replied, she stopped patting and turned to me with a sad expression.

" Touya,... actually, I have been hearing a lot about..." she looked here and there as if to check if nobody is listening, "... about bianca, " the sound of the name is enough to make my blood boil, " her parents' house is being kept under watch and everyone in town are talking about her crimes, and it seems they are increasing, " " increasing ?" she nodded, " like using pokemons to attack people, stealing pokemons, keeping people as hostages, etc. "

" Wait, there are this many !" " you didn't knew about all of that ?" " no,... I was busy in certain things that I didn't watched any news, " " Well, about ten days ago, she and her other team plasma members attacked a pokemon centre in lacunosa town, and before doing that they had already held people hostages in driftveil city 's grand hotel, to steal the money of the rich guests staying there, " my eyes widened, 'how much have you fallen ? to do something so terrible !'

" I know, you might be... feeling disturbed about it, " she started, " and this might not at all help but about three weeks ago, she attacked an old couple in mistralton with her emboar, the old man somehow survived but the old woman..." there was no need for her to complete her sentence, as her discomfort showed everything, " after listening to all these cases... I wondered,... if it is partially my fault, " she continued, " if I had listened to her parents' request of not sending their daughter,... this all wouldn't have happened, " she closed her eyes, "but because of my stubborn nature... because of my will to do the research, I sent you kids in this dangerous world, " she bit her lower lip and looked down.

" Don't blame yourself,... I am sure... you did this by keeping us in mind, " she looked at me with a smile, but in that very moment, her eyes widened and she looked behind me, " wh- what are you doing here !?" I turned to look at the familiar blond hair, covered with a silver cloak, the symbol 'p' 'z' on the chest, " Bianca..." I mumbled her name, " we need to talk..." she said with a low and cold voice, I tried looking in her eyes, ' what have you become, bianca ?'

Done. Enjoy !
