Nashly POV:
In My Dream:
???: "They aren't here!"
???: "I keeping calling them, they didn't pick up."
Nashly: "Hi Aunt Aida! Hi Uncle Manuel!"
???: "Not now, dear. Now is not the time."
???: "We are busy for the moment."
Nashly: "What's wrong? Did something happen today?"
???: "It's your cousins, they aren't at home! I'm so furious that they went out somewhere! If they have some letter with some professor, they will be sorry!"
???: "I should've stayed home so those two can't look at the mailbox that day!"
Nashly: "I'm sorry to hear that. I wish I'll be able to help."
???: "Actually,...You can."
Nashly: "Huh? I can?"
???: "Yes, you can! I want you to go and look for them. That will be helpful."
???: "So, go and get them back home."
Nashly: "But, I don't have any Pokemon to travel. I'll get myself hurt."
???: "There's no time to get a Pokemon! Go and find them, if not, then I'll find them myself!"
Nashly: "But."
???: "Go!"
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Nashly: *Wakes up and gets terrifying* "Holy shit!"
I woke up from the terrible dream I've been having this morning. As I woke up, I covered my mouth, realized I was very loud because everyone in the room was still sleeping. Remembering this memory gives me the chills, knowing what will happen if I bring Tony and Elizabeth to their parents. Another one is if I don't bring them home, their parents will. But I still have the thought that Elizabeth has someone close to her. This gives me a feeling of frustration, Darwin has the nerve to be with her. Or maybe it was just my imagination.
I went to the other room where Elizabeth slept in. As I got in, I find another bag I didn't recognize was next to her bag. I'm not sure if I'm seeing things. I went close to the bed and started to peek a little under the bedsheet. I find that my older cousin was sleeping well. Unfortunately, someone's arm was wrapped around her, I get the bedsheet out of the way to look at it. Then I realized this isn't a dream, this is real! I found out that Darwin was sleeping in the same bed as Elizabeth. I got mad and started slapping Darwin's back and face immediately. This also made Elizabeth awake, just in time to stop this madness.
Darwin: "Ow! Nashly! What was that for?!"
Nashly: "For being such a creep! Asshole!"
Elizabeth: "Nashly, stop! He hasn't done anything wrong!"
Noibat (Vincent) POV:
In the morning, I was woken by a loud noise. I rubbed my eyes and fly around to investigate whatever was happening. I went to where Darwin is and with shock, he was being yelled at by Nashly. I came along to stop Nashly from the nonsense she was making.
Noibat (Vincent): "Nashly, stop screaming for once! You're making the rest wake up from the yelling!"
Nashly: "I would like to know why this bastard was sleeping with my cousin!"
Darwin: *Covering his ears with his hands* "Jesus Christ! Stop what you're doing!"
Nashly: "I don't care what you're telling me but that won't stop-!"
Nashly was then wrapped with vines which comes from Bullet. She shouted before turning to Bullet, "Hey, let me go!" she demanded. After that, she hit by Water Pulse, Pin Missile, and Psybeam, we all turn to look behind us. It turns out Geo, Brittany, and Finn used their attack to stop the fighting.
Quilladin (Finn): "What the fuck is going on here?!"
Frogadier (Geo): "Yeah, we are all asleep until we heard a loud noise!"
Braixen (Brittany): "And it scares the heck out of me!"
Darwin: "I don't know, tell this little bitch who started it!"
Ivysaur (Bullet): "Yeah, she started it!"
Nashly sits up as the rest of the group was awake from their slumber. Bobby went to the room, finding her little sister wrapped up. "Brother, I can explain..." she said, noticed that he isn't happy. He said, feeling ashamed, "Don't, I know what you are going to say, so don't." Bullet finally let go of Nashly, being speechless, she realized this wasn't what she expected to happen. Few hours passed, Darwin, Elizabeth, and Tony were ready to enter Korrina's Gym, they send the rest to get Poke Ball, except me, Nate, and Bridgette.
Before they entered, Nashly was trying to walk and avoid everything. "Okay, I'm gonna go now..." Unware with her brother, Bobby stops her from leaving. "Oh no, you don't. You are coming inside with us, young lady." Bobby grabs her arm as she was trying to escape. We enter the Gym as we find Korrina, skating around, and having a fun time herself. She notices us coming in.
Korrina: "Oh! Hey everyone, didn't know you can come in today."
Elizabeth: "That's fine, but we are here for the challenge. Where are your Gym Trainers in this Gym?"
Korrina: "There are standing where your friends are."
Korrina's Gym Trainer #1: "She said she wanted to spice things up a bit. Well, might as well give it a try."
Korrina's Gym Trainer #2: "Right, we don't any one of us to waste time on yours."
Darwin: "Well, gonna be honest, I didn't know you want to battle so badly!"
Korrina: "And...Darwin, what happened to you? Looks like someone slapped you on the face."
Darwin: "I don't want to talk about it."
Tony: "We prepare our Pokemon to battle. First, we battle then Darwin can tell you."
Korrina: "Then it's settled. Go, Machoke, Meinfoo, and Hawlucha!"
To begin the battle, Korrina first take her Pokemon she's going to use, so we have defeated these opponents if we could. Therefore, looks like it's a three-verse-three battle. I came to the Pokeball battlefield to start. Bridgette and Nate were prepared too.
Korrina: "Machoke and Hawlucha, use Double-Slap and Rock Tomb on two Noibats! And lastly, Meinfoo, use Flying Press."
As Tony demanded, Bridgette used Fairy Wind to blow away a Meinfoo as it crashed against the wall. But a Meinfoo comes back to use Flying Press again. Darwin and Elizabeth tell us to use Air Cutter, it caused damages to a Machoke, but a Hawlucha doesn't. The opponent avoided our attack and strikes Power-Up Punch on Nate. Nate falls very hard to the ground as I noticed I'm screwed. I fly faster to get away from the opponent. Nate gets up a little but Korrina's voice says to Machoke to aim Rock Tomb right at him. Nate fainted immediately as Elizabeth sends him back and takes out Serena.
Elizabeth: "Alright, Serena. Use Dazzling Gleam!"
Tony: "Bridgette, Magical Leaf!"
Together, Serena and Bridgette used Dazzling Gleam and Magical Leaf all at once to defeat both Pokemon. Machoke dodged, but Meinfoo didn't. As it causes damage, a Meinfoo was struggling to move. Serena looked up as I was chased by a crazy Hawlucha. As possible, she used her ribbons and wrap a Hawlucha to stop chasing me. Darwin noticed and tells me to used Wing Attack. It made some damage as Meinfoo fainted. Korrina sends her fainted Pokemon to its Pokeball. Serena couldn't hold the Hawlucha that tries to get out than she let it go. The Hawlucha heard Korrina's voice to knock me down with Rock Slide.
Machoke was after Bridgette, but with Tony tells her to Fairy Wind, she repeatedly summoned a tornado of fairy dust as it spun around so fast that Machoke was thrown against the wall again and fainted as well. Korrina sends her fainted Machoke. Without looking back, a Hawlucha summoned Rock Slide as a bunch of rocks falls on top of me. I attempted to get out of there, but with bad luck, a huge rock fell on top of me. It made fall hard to the ground, barely moving but couldn't get up to fly. I covered my eyes as the Hawlucha approach to finish me, Darwin sends me to my Pokeball.
Darwin POV:
I send Vincent back to his Pokeball, and I have no idea who am I going to send. I mean, it's a Hawlucha, and I didn't have any clue what to do. And then, an idea popped into my head. Since Vincent got injured, sending Julian was the only choice I have. I spoke to Elizabeth and Tony, saying I can handle this and finishing the Gym Battle. They both nodded, with a brief moment, I send Julian out. He thought we won, but not yet.
Heliolisk (Julian) "Woohoo! Did we win?"
Darwin: "Not...really."
Heliolisk (Julian): "What do you mean?"
Darwin: "Turn around and see for yourself."
With a confused look, he looked back to see Korrina and her Hawlucha. He looked back at me, realized this isn't part of the strategy. With panic, he couldn't do it.
Heliolisk (Julian): "No. No. No! No! This isn't part of the strategy we've been planning for!"
Darwin: "Trust me, it will work."
Julian has no option to fight a Hawlucha. "Julian, use Thunder!" I commanded. "Hawlucha, Use Power-Up Punch!" Korrina demanded. A Hawlucha was coming closer to finish off him, but luckily, Julian ducks as the Hawlucha missed. Julian then use Thunder to cause further damage, which can also cause the Hawlucha to be paralyzed. The Hawlucha crashed to the ground, won't even able to fly around. "Serena, use Swift!" Elizabeth commanded. Tony does the same, "Bridgette, Fairy Wind!" Serena and Bridgette had aimed their moves to the opponent, it makes a great exploded of dirt all over it. As dust disappeared, Hawlucha was defeated. Korrina sends her fainted Pokemon, didn't know she lost again.
Korrina: "Congratulation, guys! You showed what you can do as you work together. I'm very impressed with the skills."
Tony: "Why thank you very much."
Korrina "You three deserve to have the Rumble Badge!"
Korrina passes the badge to each of us. We were happy to have our third badge for today. Our friends come to say congrats. I looked at Nashly was, but she wasn't there. I went outside to check as soon as she saw there. I found her at the front of the Gym, but I hid, she was talking through her phone. I didn't know who she is talking to. "Don't worry, I'll meet you at Courmarine, and then Lumiose, alright? Bye." She spotted me hiding and gives me a bad glance as she goes back inside. No clue why she hated me and who is she talking to on the phone. I got back inside and Korrina wanted to say something before we leave.
Korrina: "Has the three of you have a Lucario?"
Elizabeth: "I have mine, but it's on the PC."
Tony: "I don't have one."
Darwin: "Either do I."
Korrina: "Well, that's settled. Come to the top of the Tower of Mastery. Meet you all there."
We walked out of the Gym and head there. As we walked, I noticed Nashly giving me a frustration look on her face, it doesn't seem that she doesn't trust me getting close to Elizabeth. I looked at Elizabeth and told her what's her big deal.
Darwin: "Hey Liz."
Elizabeth: "Yeah."
Darwin: "What's up with Nashly? She doesn't seem to like me."
Elizabeth: "Oh! Her. What about her?"
Darwin: "She's rude as hell."
Nashly: *Ahem* "Excuse me? What did you just say?"
Darwin: "N-Nothing. Why?"
Nashly: "No reason."
Nashly then goes to Bobby. "You see what I mean. She slaps me," I said, getting serious. Elizabeth looked at me, knowing what I mean. She apologizes for her behavior. She knows she will react this way. "I'm very sorry about her. You're right, she does hate you." We stopped at the tower Korrina was talking about. We all enter and walked up to the stairs, as we got up there, she was here with two Lucarios standing behind her. Nashly didn't know what's going to happen as she listened.
Korrina: "You guys are here now! I brought you something you guys like, so Elizabeth, since you already have your own Lucario, I want you to have the Mega Keystone, attach with a Mega Ring and a Lucarionite."
Elizabeth: "Oh my gosh, thank you so much!"
Korrina: "As for you boys, you can have the same reward as her. But, I can give both a Lucario as well."
Korrina gives me and Tony a Lucario, Mega Ring, and Lucarionite. The moment I get it was incredible. "Thank you. You're very thankful," I say as I was being grateful towards her. You're very welcome," Korrina said as much as grateful as I am. "Those items I give you are used for Mega Evolution for battle. They are very useful to help you defeat Team Flare or any enemies you have during battling."
Elizabeth: "I heard some stories about Mega Evolution from my Uncle Luis."
Tony: "You have?"
Elizabeth: "Yeah. He told me everything."
Korrina: "Excellent! And Darwin, I forgot to mention something. Who slapped you?"
Darwin: "It's-."
Nashly: "Hey, let me go, Julian!"
Julian let go of Nashly as she was forced to be pulled in the middle of our conversation. Nashly stared at Korrina. "It's Nashly," Bobby says, "She slaps him in the morning." as Korrina went shocked, knowing that she started for a reason. She calms down for a moment. "Well, it's very good to meet you at the Tower of Mastery. Hope you have a wonderful journey."
We both say goodbye to Korrina, as I saw Elizabeth give my hand and ran to the Pokemon Center. When we got inside, we went to the PC to get her storage. "What are you gonna do?" I questioned. "Just you wait." She took out her Lucario named Blu. He seems different and kind from the Lucario that attack Julian.
Elizabeth: "Hey bud, how have you been?"
Lucario (Blu): "Pretty good."
Elizabeth: "There's something I like to give you, this will shock you a lot."
With that, Elizabeth then presents a Lucarionite for Blu. He was as shocked as ever. Blue hug her as she deserves it. Others were here as Nashly saw her with a Pokemon.
Lucario (Blu): *Shocked* "Oh my God! This is what I wanted! "Thank you!"
Elizabeth: "It's not a problem. Let me look some accessory for you to place this."
She looked through her bag to find it as I found a wristband to attach Lucarionite as she let Blu wear it around his wrist. He hugs her again and went back to the PC. "Tony, what do you need?" I say. Tony spoke, "Nothing, I'm just getting one of my sister's Pokemon to heal." Elizabeth turns around and gives a Pokeball which is Nate. I give a Pokeball, which Vincent was inside. Tony grabs both to give it to Nurse Joy. Budo and the rest came out of his own and wanting something from Elizabeth as she put Blu back to PC. Julian was a little frightened from the Gym, but luckily for him, everyone pats him on the back. They support him for finishing the Gym Battle while Darwin was making Julian feeling calm.
Ivysaur (Bullet): "You did great out there!"
Heliolisk (Julian): "It was horrible. I was nearly going to die."
Honedge (Jayden): "Well, I'm sure you are going to be fine. Right, Geo?"
Frogadier (Geo): Yeah, you'll get used it."
Elizabeth: "What is it, Budo?"
Pancham (Budo): "Liz, I know it's awkward to ask, but I want to evolve."
Darwin: "Oh my..."
Elizabeth: "Do you mean it?"
Pancham (Budo): "Yeah. If it's okay with you."
Elizabeth: "Sure, but you need to have a Dark-Type on the team."
Pancham (Budo): "I know someone who can help."
10 Minutes Later:
Pancham (Budo): "Please Sky! For God's sake!"
Sableye (Sky): "Why? What do you want me this time? Can't you ask someone else who helps you?"
Sylveon (Serena): "Sky! It's been 10 minutes and you're wasted time!"
Sableye (Sky): "It's not my fault that he's been doing this for a while."
Braixen (Brittany): "How about this way? If you help Budo, I'll give you three gems for you to eat."
Raichu (Logan): "How does that sound?"
Sableye (Sky): "Hm...Guess that will do. Fine, I'll help."
Pancham (Budo): "Fucking finally!"
Roserade (Amy): "Awesome! Let's go before Nate realized we left him here."
Tony will be staying with the others as the rest of us were headed to the field which is located on Route 12 to help Budo out with Sky's help. At Route 12, other Pokemon were chilling, sitting on the sand as we watch Sky and Budo battle with each other. What we didn't know is Nashly was following us, hate to admit, she's one crazy person. "Where are all of you going?" Nashly questioned me and Elizabeth.
Elizabeth: "Training Budo. What about you? Aren't you suppose to be with the others at the Pokemon Center?"
Nashly: "Nah. I don't feel like it anyway."
Darwin: "Great...I wonder why."
Nashly: "To make sure you're not going near my cousin! That's why I slap you!" *Covers her mouth with her hands* "I mean-!"
Frogadier (Geo): "Oh yeah, that reminds me..."
I have no clue what Geo was thinking, he notices we are nearby the water and decided to push Nashly in the water as revenge. "Ooooh!" everyone said, knowing that Nashly deserves it. She spits water out from her mouth and yelling at Geo.
Nashly: "WHY THE FUCK DID YOU PUSH ME IN THE WATER?!"
Frogadier (Geo): "Remember what I told you?"
Nashly: "What do you mean?!" *Thinking then realized* "Oh shit..."
Frogadier (Geo): "Yeah. Do it again and see what happens next."
Nashly: "Darwin, what on earth did you taught him?!"
Darwin: "I didn't teach him to do that. He did it by himself."
Nashly then gets out of the water, knowing that her clothes are now wet. She and I heard Budo having his victory over his training. Then all of the sudden, Budo starting to glow, just like what happened to Mateo. He was growing bigger until the glowing had stopped, Budo was now a Pangoro. Nashly gasped as she looks at Budo getting taller.
Pangoro (Budo): "Fuck yeah!"
Sableye (Sky): "Congrats."
Nashly: "But...But...How?!"
Braixen (Brittany): "Oh my God! Budo, you're-!"
Heliolisk (Julian): "You're taller than us!"
Pangoro (Budo): "Oh gosh!" *Laughs* "You guys were small from up here!"
Walking back to the Pokemon Center, Brittany took three gems from Elizabeth's bag to Sky and was put back to the PC. Tony came back with two of our Pokemon. We all leave Shalour City and go to another city or maybe camp out in the Wild. As three hours went by, the sun sets at dawn, we arrived at Coumarine City. "We are here at last! Brittany shouted with joy. "Hey look. There's our cabin over there. Elizabeth said, pointed out where her cabin is at. We can stay at Liz's cabin for a while. Nashly went to bathroom as she pick a dry of clothes. In the kitchen, Elizabeth and I were drinking hot tea for the evening. Geo was pouring some two cups of tea, as he was done, he carry them upstairs. Then, Nashly came to us for a favor.
Nashly: "Hey, cousin?"
Elizabeth: "What is it?"
Nashly: "I want to ask you something."
Elizabeth: "And what will that be?"
Nashly: "I was wondering if...if you can let me borrow one of your Pokemon."
I spit out tea in the sink as I heard it from Nashly. Elizabeth was shocked as hell, she couldn't think of any other than that.
Elizabeth: "WHAT?!"
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
At the Reflection Cave:
Wild Lucario (Blaze): "Grr...I need to get out of this!"
*He wiggles his right arm out. Blaze came up with an idea by punching and breaking his way out of here. As he does multiple times by punching, pieces of the rock were breaking apart make free Blaze."
Wild Lucario (Blaze): "Yes! I'm free! Now, I'll be going to kill the disgraceful frog and get Brittany back! She'll be mine soon enough!"
To Be Continued...
Nashly wants something from Elizabeth, a Pokemon. The couple was in complete shock. She didn't have a partner, to begin with as she reunited with her cousins and her older brother. Borrowing someone's Pokemon was not even an answer. The others were listening and this angers her brother a lot. What Nashly didn't know is that Logan was listening to their conversation.
