---------- Volume One Chapter One Next - Chapter Two The Youth of Avia! |
Chapter Two --------- Being a citizen of Avia was an esteemed honor in its own right. The province was home to some of the finest architectural designs that this world has ever seen and the cuisine in Avia could compete with any other location. With its aura of royalty ringing about throughout the province, it was simple to see why Avia was a desirable destination for travelers and visitors alike. But with turbulent times in the region of Ransei, being the daughter of Avia’s king and queen was starting to take its toll on a certain blonde. The Avia province was unique to other provinces in that it had its governmental leaders, but it still maintained its royal family from years past. This family was responsible in providing all strategical and financial help that molded Avia’s beginnings. Today was the beginning of the rite of passage in Avia’s royal history for Princess Kelly. “I really don’t want to do this today… It’s so awkward…” Kelly said as she sat in her bedroom, staring at her dolled up self in the mirror. She was a very intelligent girl who would much rather prefer to live a normal life instead of the life of luxury, but with her bloodline, that was going to be impossible. “Kelly!” said a voice from outside of the blonde’s door. A knock followed the call. “May I come in, dear?” “Yes, mother,” Kelly said as she stood up, flattening down the body of her navy-blue gown and then sliding into her matching cream gloves. A tall woman who looked like an older version of Kelly opened the door and cooed at her daughter’s appearance. “Oh… darling! You look so beautiful! I’m sure you’ll make your father proud today!” “Yeah, once he stops complaining about Ambassador Blair…” Kelly said sarcastically as she glanced over at her bed and saw her Pikachu waking up from a nap. “Look who’s finally awake. Now I can get an honest opinion about how I look.” As Kelly’s mother tidied up her daughter’s blonde hair bun, Pikachu rose from her slumber and walked over to the two women before jumping on top of the dresser to get a good look at her Trainer. After a few moments of glances and inspection, Pikachu smiled brightly and gave Kelly a thumbs-up, indicating she looked beautiful. “Ugh! You’re no help, girl!” Kelly said in response to Pikachu’s gesture. Kelly’s mother laughed lightly as she placed her hands on Kelly’s shoulder while they both looked at her in the mirror, “Someday, Kelly, you’re going to want to impress a young man and…” “Mom, I’m seventeen… I think I’m past that stage now.” “…as I was saying Kelly… Someday there’s going to be that one guy that really impresses you and you’re going to want to impress him. First impressions are lasting impressions.” Kelly scoffed as she smirked at her mother saying, “I don’t think there’s a guy out there that can handle being with someone that’s smarter than him, mother. Remember the last two guys?” “Indeed I do,” her mother said as she walked towards the door. “But… you never know. Opportunity may come knocking at your door any day now! I won’t be queen forever you know!” She closed the door gently, leaving Kelly in thought. Kelly simply smiled to herself as she stood up, looking at Pikachu. “Well girl, let’s go to this stupid ceremony…” Suddenly, there was a knock at Kelly’s window. Confused as to why someone was at her window, Kelly quickly walked over to it and opened the curtains to see two boys standing on her balcony: Auburn and Jet. “Okay, Auburn. This is starting to get ridiculous… you’re kidnapping little boys in addition to your other crazy antics? Like climbing up to my window in my room?” Kelly said as she folded her arms. “Seriously, is that how everyone greets me nowadays?” Auburn said with a sarcastic smile. “No ‘Hey, Auburn!’ or ‘Oh my gosh I haven’t seen you in forever’?” Kelly stroked her forehead as she closed her eyes saying, “I’m dealing with enough stuff as it is today, Auburn and unfortunately I don’t have time to play hooky or sneak out of the house to purposely bother gigantic Pokemon today.” “Wait… what?” Jet said with an excited grin on his face. Auburn looked to Jet and then said, “I’m sorry. Where are my manners? Jet, this is my good friend for many years, Kelly. The heir to the Avia throne… sadly. Kelly, Jet.” Kelly curtsied in a fitting fashion as she was introduced to Auburn’s disliking. “That had to hurt you… at least on the inside. I feel it right here,” Auburn snorted as he pointed to his core. Kelly ignored Auburn’s comment and extended her hand to Jet as the two shook hands, “Nice to meet you, Jet. My only question for you is what are you doing hanging out with a crazy person like Auburn. He’s nothing but trouble.” “Trouble that you were once a part of, might I add Ms. Rebel?” Auburn smirked, folding his arms. Disregarding Auburn’s comment, Jet nodded at Kelly and said, “Well… I’m actually hanging with Auburn just to see where the road takes us. I had to break him out of jail a few weeks ago and—“ Auburn quickly grabbed Jet and covered his mouth. An expression of extreme embarrassment covered his face as he said, “Lettttt’s… talk about something else shall we—OW!!!!!” Apparently the sensation of teeth biting against skin was not too pleasurable for Auburn. The wail was just enough to alert Kelly’s Pikachu who ran over in time to see what the commotion was about. Auburn released his grasp from Jet and quickly waved his finger to ease the pain. “Dammit kid, you didn’t tell you were a biter!” “You didn’t tell me you would put me in a half nelson!” Jet responded. Auburn nodded and shrugged, “Fair enough.” He looked down at Kelly’s Pikachu saying, “Heyyy! Haven’t seen you in a while!” “Don’t try to change the subject,” Kelly said, lifting Auburn’s head with her hand. Then, she realized something. “Wait a minute… you broke him out of jail a few days ago? Don’t tell me that that news story in Valora was about you two… Auburn you can’t bring a little kid like Jet in on these little antics! You’ve got to grow up and act your age! You’re 18 for crying out loud!” Auburn rolled his eyes and then smiled in a hopeful manner, “So you did remember my birthday? I thought you forgot since, you know, you didn’t call me to wish me a good day.” Kelly sighed and walked inside her room. “Sorry, I’ve just been busy around here dealing with things here,” she said. Kelly turned to face him as she silently allowed them entry into her room. “That doesn’t mean you can continue to go around like a dumbass and act like you’re some sort of… vigilante! Especially with Blair and his… reign of terror.” Auburn and Jet entered the room as Pikachu sniffed Jet’s leg while observing the Spinarak on his back. Spinarak looked down at Pikachu before crawling down Jet’s body and stopping in front of Pikachu. After a brief stare off, Pikachu stroked Spinarak’s back gently, which led to the Bug-type Pokemon to shoot a web of string onto the floor. Pikachu laughed heartily while Spinarak was left embarrassed. Jet wandered over to the two Pokemon while he allowed Auburn and Kelly to ‘catch up’ or whatever they called it. “So you agree with me in saying that Blair’s a crazy, madman right?” Auburn asked as he folded his arms, watching Kelly prep herself in the mirror. “I don’t recall you ever doing all of this when we were younger. Why the sudden change?” “Because I grew up, Auburn… We’re not little kids anymore,” Kelly said, turning her head sideways to look at Auburn before looking in the mirror again as she fixed her eyelashes. “And to answer your question about Blair… yes, the man is a crazy case, but… the people continue to vote him into his position so there’s not much anyone can do about it. Especially with him having so much power.” Auburn shook his head to her comment about her growing up, seemingly hurt by it. However, he shifted his mouth when she spoke of Blair, “With that being said… I’ve got one more… crazy idea… an adventure if you will. Like we used to do when we were younger.” Kelly decided to not look at Auburn this time as she applied lip gloss to her lips and rubbed them together so that it evenly coated her skin, “Crazy idea? Like stealing one of my father’s Eevees?” “I’m guilty of that,” Auburn said while scratching the back of his neck. “But… I can’t help it that the little guy wants to be with me.” Kelly sighed as she turned to face Auburn. “Look, whatever you’re gonna say, just say it, alright? I’ve got a ceremony that I have to attend in a few minutes and if I’m late, my parents won’t let me hear the end of it.” Jet looked up from playing with Spinarak and Pikachu as he proceeded to listen to Auburn. He too was interested in whatever Auburn had to say because, well, he did not keep him extremely informed about where he was going or what he was planning to do. Auburn shifted his mouth again as he caught himself admiring Kelly’s appearance. She definitely was fixed up pretty nice for this ‘ceremony’. After a brief moment, Auburn said, “Well… I was thinking… what if the citizens of Ransei formed a group of Trainers who were completely against Blair’s reign? Obviously Blair’s not going to listen to us if we approach him with words or whatever, but I think if we send small messages here and there, we’ll be able to get his attention.” Kelly folded her arms and squinted her blue eyes at Auburn. “So you want to create more Auburns: aimless vigilantes who have no plan and won’t garner enough buzz to get attention of the masses no matter how much crazy stuff they do?” Auburn smiled brightly at her and said, “Well… let’s break that statement down shall we?” He looked at Jet and then at Kelly as he continued, “The kid and I managed to make our mark on the area by breaking out of Valora’s prison… aaaaand as far as not having a plan, well… that’s why I’m standing in front of you today.” Confused, Kelly asked, “What do you mean?” “You’re the smartest person I know, Kelly,” Auburn nodded. “You were the brains of our random adventures whenever I decided to pop into your room like Peter Pan. You always made sure we never got caught or got in trouble. And now you’re even smarter than ever! And don’t think I forgot about your Skarmory… that thing packs a punch. This ‘team’ I’m trying to form will be a group of Trainers who are fed up and tired of the way things are in Ransei. Maybe we can inspire more people to join and support us if we do enough, ya know?” Kelly bit her lip as she thought about it for a moment. She recalled how much her father disliked Blair and she also really did not understand why Blair approved of certain things as well. However, she just could not allow herself to get into harm’s way, given her current circumstances as her being announced to be the heir to the Avia throne. Shaking her head, Kelly looked down and then looked at Auburn and said, “I-I can’t Auburn. Not now… not anymore. Things have changed.” Disappointed, Auburn exhaled through his nose and looked at Jet as he walked towards the window, “Come on, kid… let’s get out of here.” Jet stood up and nodded at Kelly as his Spinarak soon followed. “It was nice meeting you Jet. Good seeing you too, Auburn. Be safe…” her voice trailed off as she watched the two boys leave out the window and over the balcony. She shook her head and muttered to herself, “Only Auburn would be crazy enough to climb up six stories of a building…” ---------- “So that’s what you’re planning! You’re going around the region to build up a union of Trainers?” Jet asked Auburn as they stood outside of Avia’s royal castle. Auburn nodded his head as he looked around. “Why didn’t you tell me!? I wanna join!” Jet said with a smile. Auburn looked around a bit more before looking down at Jet, “Kid, you were already initiated into it when you broke me out of jail… Actually… when your Spinarak wrapped up that police officer with his web.” He grinned at Jet. Jet nodded as he noticed Auburn was looking around. “What are you looking for?” “I’m actually looking for a restaurant while we wait.” “Wait for what?” Jet asked. “You’ll see.” ---------- Hundreds of people lined up in the banquet hall of the Avia Castle, awaiting the announcement that would be provided by the king of the provinces. News reporters, high ranking officials, and even normal citizens were granted entry until the hall reached capacity. Several news cameras surrounded the stage near the back of the hall as the people around the province awaited the emergence of the royal family to the front of the camera. Eventually, a group of blonde people appeared from the back door area and were met with a warm welcome of applause, cheer, and uproar. They were dressed in matching navy-blue attire, the official color of the Avia province, and were accompanied by two Swellow that took flight into the sky before perching on two short pedestals on either side of the podium of which Kelly’s father, the king of Avia stood, waving into the camera. “Good afternoon everyone,” he began as the crowd settled down. “I would like to welcome you all into our home, please be seated. Today, marks a special day for my family personally… as you all know… I sat where my daughter sat many, many, MANY decades ago!” The crowd chuckled slightly at the king’s slight humor. Kelly sat uncomfortably in her chair as the camera lens focused on her. She felt the eyes of thousands of people looking at her, so she tried her best to avoid eye contact with the camera. But, she recalled her mother’s words about always smiling and waving to anyone that met eyes with her, so she smiled into the camera and gave a gently wave before paying attention to her father’s words. “There comes a time in everyone’s life when they realize that their time is coming to an end… and it is time to bring in a new era of leadership. I would like for everyone to welcome my daughter, Princess Kelly, to the podium as she makes her first public announcement about her future.” The crowd erupted with applause and stood as Kelly made her way to the center of the stage and stepped up to the podium. Flashing lights clicked from the cameras everywhere as Kelly was unsure where to direct her words. Once the applause died down, Kelly cleared her throat and took a deep breath. “Thanks, dad…” Kelly said looking at her father as she gave him a thumbs-up. Pikachu stood beside her on the stage as she continued, “Today… is a great day. I realized some things about myself and learned that I am ready to make one of the biggest decisions about my life and announce it to the entire province of Avia. Ever since I was a little girl, I dreamed of this opportunity and the challenges that it presents itself on a daily basis. This position requires great strength, intelligence, and courtesy for those around me and I am one-hundred percent positive that I am more than capable of carrying out this attributes.” Kelly paused for a moment as she glanced at her family and then the audience. Pikachu smiled brightly before cooing its name happily. “Today… everyone… I… I, Princess Kelly, have decided to forego my position as the heir to the Avia throne by living out my dream to become Master Trainer in the region of Ransei. I pass my inheritance to my younger sister in the process, thank you.” Before anyone could respond to Kelly’s sudden and unexpected announcement, Kelly quickly walked off and headed up to her room. The king and queen were both shocked at Kelly’s words, but they both managed to remain calm as Kelly’s father returned to the stage to address the public and a cordial and professional manner. It certainly was an interesting time in the region of Ransei. ---------- Later that night, Auburn and Jet sat by the Avia Bridge near the outskirts of the province. Auburn fiddle with his Charmeleon’s PokeBall while Jet was keeping his Spinarak entertained as they sat there. “When are we leaving Auburn?” Jet asked. Auburn responded without looking at Jet, “I told you to wait, kid.” “But we’re not at the restaurant anymore,” Jet responded. He heard footsteps walking in their direction and looked up to see who it was. They were approached by a blonde dressed in black and blue running shoes and a tidy blue and yellow outfit that was complemented with a skirt. Her long, blonde hair was tied into a ponytail with a blue ribbon. Resting on her shoulder, a Pikachu. Auburn smiled as he stood up, tossing his PokeBall in the air and then catching it, saying, “Alright… now we head out.” Next - Chapter Three Risky Business! |
Chapter Three ---------- It was very fortunate for Auburn and Jet to be joined by Kelly on this seemingly aimless journey. According to Auburn, she provided a greater since sense of knowledge of the region of Ransei that he did not know about. Of course, there was also the hefty load of money that Kelly also had that helped them receive monorail tickets across the region to the province of Pugilis in western Ransei. What Kelly failed to mention before their trip was that she used all of her allowed money to get the group to the other side of the region. “Wait! What do you mean you spent all of your money to get us over here?” Auburn exclaimed as they stood in the monorail station in the small province of Pugilis. “Your family is royalty! They didn’t loan you any money before you left?” Kelly smiled uneasily as she rubbed the back of her neck. “Well,” she began, “my father doesn’t believe in handing out money if it isn’t going towards something he believes in. So, he’s letting me do things on my own. I have to respect that!” “Respect what!?” Auburn groaned as he head hit the floor. Laughing, Jet looked up at them both and said, “Well, aren’t we going to Violight anyway? There’s a casino downtown.” Kelly nodded as she looked through her Ransei region map. “Yeah, I’m sure we can try our luck at winning some money back. I do have enough money to gamble.” “Will you two listen to yourselves!?” Auburn exclaimed once more, holding out his hands in disbelief. “Gamble all of the money we have!? That doesn’t make any sense!” Kelly raised an eyebrow at Auburn. She smirked and said, “Oh, so I’ve changed? The Auburn that I knew would jump at an opportunity to make money. Are you scared of trying your luck at a casino? Hmm? Is Auburn scared of the challenge?” Auburn slowly turned to Kelly, eyes widened. However, Kelly met his eyes with the subtle smirk that remained on her face. Jet was a bit confused as to what exactly was going on, but he kept a watchful eye on Auburn, waiting for him to react to Kelly’s statement. Jet could not tell if he was offended by Kelly’s words or if he was really afraid of the challenge of gambling all of their money to double or even triple their funds. “Uh… Auburn? Are you okay?” Jet asked, waving his hand in front of the bushy-haired young man’s face. “Auburn?” Auburn nodded his head slowly, eyes wincing at Kelly as she kept her smirk firm on her face, appearing to wait for his response. “You know what? Challenge accepted…” his voice trailed off. The three exited the station and walked west towards the Pugilis forest. The trip to the rural province was a long one and by the time they entered the forest, nightfall came. They decided to set up camp inside the forest when they each grew too tired to walk any further. Auburn’s Charmeleon created a fire for them to keep warm, while Jet’s Spinarak surrounded the entire campsite with a protective web that blocked out any intruders. Kelly, meanwhile, appeared to be reading a book while Auburn prepared a meal over the fire. While random conversation occurred, Kelly decided to release her Eevee in an effort to reconnect it with Auburn’s. The two Eevee had not seen each other in quite some time, but after a few moments of figuring each other out, the two were playfully fighting one another from a safe distance away from the group. Pikachu was asleep in Kelly’s lap as she read, while the rest of the Pokemon were resting in their PokeBalls. Once Auburn was done preparing the meal, he handed out bowls of potato soup to Kelly and Jet and provided the Eevees with a basket of berries. “Bon appétit!” Auburn said, dusting off his hands as he took a seat and grabbed his own bowl of potato soup. Jet took a bite of his meal and made a satisfying sound. He looked over to see what Kelly was reading and asked her about it. “I’ve actually read this book many times,” Kelly said. “It tells different tales and myths about the Ransei region. Legendary Pokemon, origins, war… everything.” Jet nodded, understanding her statement. “My father talks all the time about those wars that occurred during ancient Ransei. He said something about… if a person were to conquer the entire region of Ransei, the alpha Pokemon will return.” “I heard that story before too,” Auburn chimed in, lifting a finger. “The question is… why would anyone want to ‘conquer’ a region? Isn’t Ransei all about liberty and freedom?” “Maybe that’s why the alpha Pokemon would return in the first place,” Kelly said, taking another sip from her soup, “to return to Ransei and restore balance in the region. But for anyone to conquer an entire region single-handedly… that person would have to be a strong person. Think about it… one person versus millions!” “A region just can’t allow somebody to conquer them, though,” Jet said. “At least not without standing up for themselves. How can anyone possibly live with that?” “If they agree with the conqueror’s principles, it’s not that hard,” Auburn shrugged, referring to Blair. Kelly glanced at Auburn. “You think Blair’s trying to conquer the Ransei region?” “It’s not that hard to believe,” Auburn said. “Think about: he keeps creating all of these new policies and laws that prevent people from any attempts to overthrow him, he brainwashes people into thinking what he’s doing is right, and the people continuously vote for him not only out of faith but fear as well. What else could he possibly be trying to do?” Kelly and Jet’s silence indicated that they were seriously thinking that what Auburn saying was probably true. Auburn grinned as he sipped the remains of his soup and slammed his bowl down onto the ground. “The thing is… I don’t believe in that myth about the alpha Pokemon returning. If it wanted to return, it would have returned by now seeing our region in the condition that it’s currently in. I won’t allow Blair to continue to abuse his power to get what he wants.” Silence fell among the group as they each were in deep thought about the whole situation. Kelly’s eyes went from Auburn to Jet to where their Eevees were playing, but they were no longer there! “Auburn, where are our Eevees?” Kelly asked, standing up now as she went over to where she thought they were playing. There was a big opening in the web on this side of the camp. “I think they got away!” Jet and Auburn got to their feet as they ran over there as well. “Or something got to them!” they both said in unison. ---------- The group decided to pack up their things and ditch their camp site to prevent anything else of theirs from being taken. It was inconvenient, but the thought of losing their Pokemon motivated Auburn and Kelly to be on high alert at this moment. While the two older members of the group walked on foot, Jet utilized his Spinarak to hop from tree branch to tree branch to cover a wider visual span of the forest. Fortunately, Auburn’s Charmeleon was leading the way in providing light from them since the darkness of the Pugilis forest was much darker in comparison to the Velora forest. “Eevee!” Auburn shouted, cupping his hands around his mouth as he did so, “Where are you buddy!?” Kelly glared at Auburn and elbowed him in the stomach just enough to cause some damage. “Auburn, you’re going to wake something up!” “How else are we going to find our Pokemon then, Kelly?” Auburn whispered loudly at her. Kelly huffed and folded her arms as Pikachu ran ahead of them. The trek across the forest seemingly went on for hours. Jet searched high while Auburn and Kelly searched low. However, there was no clear sign of the two Eevees, especially in the darkness of this forest. Auburn stopped and looked around the forest as he muttered to himself. “They’ve got to be around here somewhere. Eevee normally responds to my calls.” “Hey guys, I found something!” Jet yelled from above. Auburn and Kelly looked up to where Jet was and saw that he was standing on the branch of an extremely large tree. There appeared to be an immense web wrapped around the entire top of the tree. “Okay, what the hell is that?” Auburn said aloud. “Webs, Auburn,” Kelly said sarcastically. “Stay down here. I’m going up.” She released her prized Skarmory that Auburn had praised earlier and hopped on the Armor Bird Pokemon. She took flight upward as her Skarmory flew around the webbed home. Auburn scoffed and shook his head. “Like I have a choice... I don’t have any Flying-type or Climbing-type Pokemon.” Once Jet saw that he was now accompanied by Kelly aboard her flying Skarmory, he looked to webs that surrounded the canopy of the tree and said, “This is definitely the work of some sort of spider Pokemon. But these webs are too big to be a Spinarak’s. And look,” he pointed out, “there are giant webbed lumps throughout the web. I’m willing to bet that those are either objects or Pokemon.” “Worth a shot,” Kelly said. “Skarmory, Swift!” Skarmory cawed loudly as a fleet of golden stars appeared from his flapping wings. The stars managed to rip through the webs that encaged the different sizes lumps. Once the webs were torn, several Bug-type Pokemon were freed from their imprisonment and scattered away from the web immediately. Among these freed Pokemon were Kelly and Auburn’s Eevee. Thinking quickly, Kelly took out her PokeBall and returned her own Eevee while Jet hopped on the web bed and grabbed Auburn’s Eevee. “Get out of here quick, Jet!” Kelly shouted as she saw a large, shadowy Pokemon emerge from the darkness. Before she knew it, she was face to face with an Ariados. The Ariados, on the other hand, had plans of its own for its intruders and was not too happy with Jet standing on its home. Seeing this, Jet quickly commanded Spinarak to get him out of there and the web-slinging Pokemon shot a web to a nearby branch. Just as Ariados shot a web at Jet’s backside, Skarmory swooped in with an Air Slash that cut the web string in half. With Ariados’s sights on Skarmory and Kelly now, Jet was successful at landing safely on the ground alongside Auburn. Eevee hopped out of Jet’s grasp and purred happily in Auburn’s arm. As Skarmory flew around the large tree, the angered Ariados’s eyes followed as it continued to shoot webs at the Armor Bird Pokemon, in hopes of stopping it. Kelly smirked as she hung on tight to Skarmory while her Pokemon continued to fire random Swift attacks at Ariados, knocking it off balance. Once Kelly saw an opportunity after Ariados stumbled, she called for Skarmory to swoop in on Ariados and finish it by delivering a hefty Steel Wing to the body of the Bug and Poison-type Pokemon, sending it flying into the distant darkness. After successfully getting rid of the predator, Skarmory flew to the ground and landed gently as Kelly climbed off her Pokemon. She smiled and petted Skarmory on the face saying, “Good job, Skarmory.” She looked to Auburn who gave her a questioning look. “What?” she said with a smile, “You didn’t think that just because I stopped going on adventures with you that I wasn’t capable Trainer? I did say that I wanted to be a master Trainer after all.” ---------- After their run in with the Ariados, the group decided that they would continue walking until they reached the province of Violight which was just outside the Pugilis’s deep forest. They were tired, but according to Kelly it was not going to be safe resting in this forest with so many Bug-type Pokemon ready to attack them at any given time. “We can rest once we reach Violight,” Kelly said. “I’m sure we can split the cost of a hotel room, Auburn.” Partially offended, Jet glanced at Kelly and said, “I have money too. I want to help out!” “Quick lesson, Kelly,” Auburn quickly butted in before Jet got too mad. “The kid doesn’t like being treated as, well, a kid.” Jet nodded, putting his hands on his hips. “I’m sorry,” Kelly said, looking down at Jet. “I just was thinking in the best interest of you. You’re just a kid and I didn’t want to put you in a situation where you’re not even old enough to understand yet.” “I’m almost thirteen years old and… I think I understand about the world enough to help you guys with money!” Jet exclaimed, balling his fists. “Just… don’t treat me like I can’t help. I’m somebody!” Auburn lifted his hands as he peered over at Kelly, “See what you did?” He chuckled as Kelly shot him a glare. Once Jet’s tension settled down, the group managed to successful reach the exit of the forest’s west side. They stood atop a large cliff that overlooked the bright lights of one of the Ransei region’s largest and most popular provinces, Violight. Even at this time of night, the lights were flickering and flashing brightly, inviting people to enjoy the nightlife downtown. Auburn rubbed his hands together, excited about what the province of Violight had to offer for them. He vividly recalled Kelly’s challenge of him not being able to earn money from Violight’s famous (and perhaps infamous) casino, so he took that challenge to heart. Did she not know that Auburn could not say no to a challenge? Bringing Auburn a challenge was like giving a Growlithe a piece of bread: he was always going to accept it! But first, they had to figure out where they were going to stay for the night. One does not simply stay in Violight for just one night! ---------- “Hmm… I haven’t been to the casino in forever. I’ve got to get my hands on some more money if it’s the last thing I do,” said the voice of a tall man dressed a dark purple jacket and bandana, accented with golden features. “But first I’ve got to earn this easy money for the old guy. He thought right in hiring the magnificent Garnet in carrying out a task.” A smile appeared on Garnet’s face as he walked downtown, his clothes cloaking him despite the bright lights continuously flashing. Once he reached his destination, Garnet jammed his fists into his pockets as he made his way down an alley between buildings. He climbed atop of a trashcan and heard a weird moan from the container. Garnet looked inside the trashcan and saw a Trubbish struggling to move inside of it and simple closed the top in the Pokemon’s face. “Seriously… what a weird Pokemon,” Garnet scoffed as he leaped up to grab the bottom of the fire escape and pulled himself to the ladder. His ascend to the top of the building ended as he leaped over the mini brick wall between the ladder and the roof. Once he got there, Garnet silently cursed at himself when he saw a group of security guards with flashlights patrolling the area. Garnet sat on the ground as he hid himself behind the entrance to the roof and reached into his pocket. He released his Ditto as the Transform Pokemon awaited orders from its Trainer. Garnet grinned at Ditto and said to it, “Alrighty, Ditto. Remember that model I dated? The one from Fontaine? What was her name… umm… hmm…” Ditto waited patiently while Garnet tried to recall the model he dated from Fontaine. “Ah gee… there were a bunch of models I dated from Fontaine,” Garnet chuckled. “Pick one, transform, and take care of those security guards, will ya?” Ditto nodded as its body stretched and grew into a curvy woman in a black dress with brunette hair. Once it was done transforming, Ditto walked over to the security guards who were sitting near the edge of the roof. Ditto cleared its throat, being careful not to talk since it was not capable of mimicking the voice of human. Once it got the attention of the officers, it struck an attractive pose for the two men. “Hey, wait a minute!” One of the officers said. “You’re that model! From Fontaine!” Garnet sat in his same hiding place, mimicking the officer’s words playfully, chuckling to himself. He looked over just in time to see Ditto kick the two officers off the roof. He gritted his teeth and immediately ran towards where Ditto was and peaked over the roof to see that both of the officers had landed inside of a trash can, safely on a pile of Trubbishes. Garnet grinned and looked to Ditto, high-fiving his Pokemon. “Good work,” Garnet said, nodding. “A little bit unorthodox, but good work nonetheless.” Ditto struck a pose, in hopes of infatuating Garnet like it did to the officers. However, Garnet was unimpressed. “Close, but not close enough,” Garnet wagged a finger at Ditto. “You’ve got the look, but her breasts were definitely bigger than that. Maybe next time.” Ditto frowned before transforming back into its pink blob form. “Now,” Garnet said as he walked towards the door to the roof, preparing to go down, “let’s get inside and get that Staff, shall we?” Next - Chapter Four A Common Objective! |
