New chapter after a conflict with Microsoft Word... XP

Chapter 12

Are you two leaving already? Blue asked as Dennis walked over to the door once he exited the guest room. The guest room was just next to the door leading outside. It was still dark and Dennis had already woken up. He was walking quietly and reaching for the handle when Blue suddenly greeted him. Its not even bright outside, Dennis

Dennis faced Blue. He had a shocked expression and was holding his finger in front of his lips. Ninas sleeping! He whispered loudly enough for Blue to hear.

Oh so youre sneaking away from her! She exclaimed loudly. She was sitting comfortably on her sofa facing a curtained window. A mug of steaming tea was in her hands.

Dennis frowned. Listen, lady. She slows me down and shes really annoying!

I think shes sweet, Blue replied after drinking her tea. She lowered her mug, closed her eyes and sighed. So shes just a rival to you, huh, Dennis?

What?

She continued on after she opened her eyes. To you, that sweet girl is just a tool to make you stronger. Am I right, Dennis?

Dennis couldnt move his lips. He stared at her with shock.

Speechless? A wide smirked crept on Blues face. What kind of person are you, Dennis? Neither Yellow nor Green act how you act.

Dennis shock melted away as Blue continued. You overheard us last night, huh?

Blue sipped her tea once more. She lowered it and replied, Of course I did. You two were loud. I was afraid you two would catch attention to the whole town.

Dennis paused and looked outside. He noticed that morning was fast approaching. Listen, lady. I have to go now and I dont want you making me feel

Was I making you guilty, Dennis? Or did you made yourself feel guilty? A sly grin appeared on Blues face. I feel sorry for Yellow for having a son like you. She really expected you to be

Look, Im not some stupidwhatever! I do care for my family and

Arent you friends your family? Blue interrupted him.

Silence spread throughout the room. Blue closed her eyes and sipped her tea quietly as he stood there, gripping his fists. Blue lowered her mug and looked at the framed pictures on the wall. There were pictures of her daughter, a smiling, dark brown haired girl, full of energy. Then, she eyed Dennis. So arent you leaving?

Dennis quickly turned around and held the knob. He twisted it and opened the door. I am now

~*~*~*~

Blue was humming softly as she was cooking breakfast. The aroma of eggs and bacon filled the air as she flipped bacon with a spatula. She looked beyond the window. The damp grass outside flourished with the colorful flowers along the road. She heard footsteps heading to the kitchen.

It was Nina. She yawned as she entered the kitchen and stretched her arms. Blue, did you see Dennis? She asked her as she sat on one of the chairs.

Dennis? Oh, he left early Blue replied cheerily while she slipped the bacon and eggs into a plate.

He left? Nina suddenly exclaimed. She immediately stood up but Blue asked her to sit down.

Dont worry about your friend. I know hes not very far. Its going to rain again later and Im sure hes coming back. She smiled as she set the dishes on the table.

Nina looked at her in confusion while Blue moved towards one of the drawers to get a fork. But what if hes not coming back?

Blue shrugged as she placed the fork on the dish. Im sure hell come back here. Its weird but my intuition tells me that hell be back.

~*~*~*~

Dennis noticed something wrong in Lavender town. People were every, panicking and all over the streets. Children were crying and women were screaming. Men yelled as they heaved their belongings. He noticed that he was caught in the middle of the great confusion.

He asked a passing woman whats happening but the woman simply ignored him. He asked another passerby but everyone simply ignored him. Dennis needed to know what was happening. He continued walk along the streets until he noticed a television store, which had its televisions on. He tried to hear the announcer in midst of the noise.

Newsflash! This just in! It has been confirmed that a second army of Pokmon was seen attacking a group of hikers just above Lavender town! The second army was said to be composed of vicious fighting type Machops. Beware for they are quickly moving south towards Lavender town itself. It is best that civilians must continue evacuating!

Dennis eyes widened. He couldnt believe a second army of Pokmon has appeared. The first thing that he wanted to do was to go south immediately. But something stopped him. Ninas face flashed in his mind, which made him stop in his tracks.

No Im not saving her. She can take care of herself. Besides, she was the champion Dennis thought to himself. But the urging to warn her was unavoidable. Okay, Ill just tell her that an army is coming that waythats it He quickly turned to the opposite direction and ran up north.

He stood out from the crowd since he was the only one running up north while the rest of the people were walking down south.

~*~*~*~

You were right about the weather, Blue Nina sighed as she looked up at the now gloomy sky. The sun was completely covered by thick, gray clouds. She looked from the inside of the house.

Its going to rain soon, huh? Blue smiled as she joined Nina looking outside. This reminded me back then when I used to be a trainer myself and I loved to fly with the clouds

Nina nodded as she continued to stare out at the cloudy sky. It began to drizzle softly outside. The rain softly patted on the windows pane. As Nina breathed, the windows pane was covered by steam from her breath.

Blue?

Yes?

Did youdid you overhear us last night Nina asked her timidly as she drew on the windowpane with her finger.

Blue smiled as she faced her. Lets just forget about what happened to you two last night, okay?

A small smile crept up on Ninas face. Okay

As she replied, a loud thud was heard from outside. Blue immediately stood straight as she looked over at the kitchen. What was that? She muttered.

Nina stood along side Blue as she began to move towards the kitchen. A crash was heard. Then the sounds of multiple Pokmon followed. The two of them looked through the windows of the kitchen and were shocked to see wild Machops scurrying around, destroying anything that they can see along the way. Some of the short, muscular, gray Pokmon started the assault on house, punching it, creating cracks on the walls.

Before they knew it, a rock came crashing from a nearby window. Nina was about to scream but Blue immediately placed her hand over her mouth, blocking the screaming.

Somethings happening Blue muttered as she released Nina.

Whatwhat is? Nina was stammering and trembling in fear.

I dont know yetbut this is serious. You have Pokmon with you, right? She asked her as she herself took out a Pokball.

Nina nodded and looked at the clear red part of the Pokball. In it, she could see a large Blastoise, awaiting Blues command at any moment. She took out her own Pokball from her pocket and readied herself even though she was trembling in fear right now.

I see someone over thereitsits a kid? Blue muttered as she peered through the shattered window.

Beyond the rampaging Machops, she could see a boy standing with his arms folded. It seems as if the boy was controlling the Machops since they werent attacking him. More Machops came from behind the boy.

It couldnt be Blue gasped. She gripped her Pokball tightly.

Huh? Nina looked at Blue who had a shocked appearance.

Blue shook her head and muttered about having imaginations. Okay, Nina, Ill attack up front and you back me up on the sides, got it? She said while she faced Nina. Were going to get over there to that boy. I bet hes the one behind this

Nina nodded her head affirmatively. She gripped her Pokball tightly as Blue moved towards the door. She followed her there.

Ready?

With another nod, Blue quickly opened the door and threw her Pokball at a high speed. The sphere immediately emitted white smoke and out from the smoke came out her large, blue turtle Pokmon. The Machops saw this and didnt hesitate to attack Blues Blastoise.

Toise-Chan, hydro pump and walk forward! Blue commanded viciously while her Pokball returned to her hand.

With a fierce roar, her Blastoise sent out two powerful blasts of water towards the advancing fighting Pokmon. The blasts of water sent back the Machops and caused some to hit other Machops, making them faint due to the powerful force.

Nina, back me up! Blue yelled as her Blastoise began to walk. Blue followed her lumbering Blastoise and Nina followed behind her.

Right! Nina yelled as she threw her Pokball, releasing her Raichu. Her Raichu growled as the electric buildup caused its orange fur to rise. Its ears twitched and it lashed its long, slim tail as it awaited a command. Thunder bolt!

With a violent growl, the orange mouse Pokmon strained its small arms and sent out yellow bolts of electricity that trailed the ground and hit the incoming Machops. They uttered out screams of pain as the attacks hit multiple targets.

Keep firing, Toise-Chan, Blue yelled making her Blastoise fire more hydro pumps. Were almost there!

The two and their Pokmon continued to lumber their way towards the boy at the distance. Blue could now see who it was and it confirmed her fears.

The boy wore a vivid red bandana with his jet-black bangs protruding down his forehead. He wore a very intimidating smirk. He had an open dark blue jacket on top of his black shirt. His denim pants were soiled with dirt and grass stains and his shoes were caked with mud.

Blue stared at the figure in horror. Derek! Derek, whatwhat are you doing here? Wheres Alyssa? She yelled as her Blastoise continued to fire its attacks.

Derek didnt reply but continued to smirk. His eyes were dull as he gazed at Blues Blastoise, not even fearful of an attack.

Do you know him, Blue? Nina yelled while Sergio continued its relentless attack on the fighting Pokmon that trailed behind them.

Blue ignored Nina and continued to talk with Derek. Derek! Where were you from? And wheres Alyssa? Blue didnt notice that numerous Machops that have formed in front of her Blastoise.

The Machops leapt immediately the moment her Blastoise was off guard. They punched and kicked and made her Blastoise roar in pain.

Toise-Chan! Blue yelled when she noticed her Pokmon being attacked. Hydro pump! But it was too late. Her Blastoise collapsed while the Machops continued on with their reckless attacks.

Blue!

That was the Machops chance. While Nina was off guard, they attacked Sergio frantically. When she realized what was happening, the two of them were surrounded. Nina was about to take out her other Pokballs but the Machops quickly lunged forward and held Nina down with their combined weight. She screamed in pain as they started to hold her arms.

The Machops growled fiercely as they surrounded the two. Blue was still trying to reach Derek who was still smiling dementedly as he approached the two. Derek! Snap out of it!

When Blue realized that Nina was down, she tried to take out her other Pokballs too but the Machops also immediately tackled her. All hope seems lost when Blue was held down to the ground face down. She could hear Dereks muddy shoes stop in front of her.

Next to her, Nina screamed in pain as the Pokmon tightened their grip. Blue tried to talk to Derek once more but she noticed that he wasnt the Derek she knew. A smile of satisfaction replaced the sneer. His eyes suddenly turned into demonic and his face was pale.

She knew at once that she was doomed. But when all hope seems losta familiar voice was heard.

Nina! Nina, where are you? Dennis yelled off into the distance.

Dennis was panting as he stopped and looked at the colossal army of Machops.

Dennis, over here! Nina screamed in midst of her pain.

Blue struggled to look over at Dennis who took out his Pokball. He threw it, releasing his Dragonite. The dragon dwarfed the army of Machops but they still had the instinct to attack. They growled as they leapt towards Dennis Dragonite.

Fury, dragon claw! He yelled, pointing to the vast army of Machops.

Furys claws glowed and then slashed the advancing Machops fiercely, flinging some to others. Blue noticed that Dereks expression immediately turned into anger. Derek pointed towards Dennis Dragonite and immediately, more Machops crowded under it.

Fly up, Fury! Dennis yelled.

Next, Dennis took out another Pokball while kicking down a few Machops trying to hold him down. He threw it up in the air, releasing his Charizard, Havoc in midair. Havoc swooped down, grabbing Dennis by his shoulders and then helped him go on its back.

Fury, use hyper beam over there! He yelled, pointing to the Machops following them.

Fury obeyed and fired a hyper beam towards the Machops, annihilating some of the advancing Machops. However, the others continued to move forward, leaping over their fallen comrades.

Havoc swooped down towards Nina and Blue. Dennis immediately tore away the Machops that were holding Blue and Nina down when he was able to reach though them and knocked down Derek by throwing a Machop at him.

Nina stood up immediately, returned her fainted Raichu and took out another Pokball and released her Flareon. Blue returned her Blastoise, too but watched Nina combat the Machops that were going to attack them.

Cedric, use fire spin to shield us! She yelled. The fury, fire Pokmon obeyed as it spewed out flames from its mouth, and completely surrounding Nina and Blue in a wall of fire. The Machops screamed in agony since some were caught within the flames and some other tried to leap in but were burnt.

Good defense Blue muttered as she looked up in the sky where Dennis was still fighting the Machops below.

Loud explosions were heard and were followed by screams of pain by the Machops. Blue could see Dereks silhouette from the other side of the flame wall and look up at Dennis. At the site of him, he saw his shadow immediately run away. Then, she heard the Machops following him.

Bring down the fire spin! Blue yelled to Nina.

Nina nodded and commanded Cedric to lower down the defensive wall. The firewall deteriorated, revealing hundreds of bodies strewn across the ground. Blue immediately ran to where she thought Derek ran.

Blue? Blue, where are you going? Nina yelled as she followed her.

Dennis, confused to what was happening, returned Fury and used Havoc to follow the two. It was after a few minutes when Blue realized that Derek had disappeared. She stopped in her tracks, panting, drenched with sweat and dirty.

Blue! Nina yelled as she finally caught up with her. Blue, whywhy were you following that kid?

Blue didnt reply as she continued gasp for air. Dennis landed next to them and immediately returned Havoc.

Bluetell me whats happening Nina pleaded at the silenced Blue. Please

A long silence followed but Blue managed to talk. That boyDerekhehe was abducted along with my daughter Her voice trembled as she tried to explain. Hehe was my daughters best friendand Blues voice immediately trailed off as she fell on her knees, tears streaming down her dirty face.

If he was the one kidnapped, what was he doing here? Dennis questioned Blue as he walked next to her.

I dont know Blue sobbed. I dont knowII have the feeling that my daughter is hurt somewhereseeing Derekhe isnt that same boy that Ive met beforehes changedhes different

What do you mean? Nina asked her as she knelt down with Blue. Blue, what do you mean?

Blue tried to reply but her words ended up getting choked by her tears. Before she could say more, footsteps were heard behind them. Dennis and Nina quickly turned to the figure that was standing behind them. It was Silver.

You! Youre Silver! Nina exclaimed, pointing at the red haired man. At the sound of his name, Blue immediately turned around to see him. She stood up and threw her arms around him. He wrapped his arms gently around her as she continued to cry.

Dennis remained silent even though hed want to take revenge on the man he started to hate.

Why are you crying? He whispered softly to her ear. What happened?

Silver Blue sobbed. Oh, Silver She couldnt bring herself to tell him what just happenedor at least the consequence that she had just realized.

New chapter.. O_O

Chapter 13

I thought you werent coming back, Dennis. Nina muttered as she broke the silence between her and Dennis. They were back in Blues home. She was sitting on the sofa while Dennis was standing up, facing the window.

He looked outside at the land outside, strewn with charred and mutilated bodies of Pokmon. Craters from the hyper beams were present and the land was blackened with ash. Smoke rose from some of the bodies and the road was completely desolated and disfigured.

Dennis sighed and continued to look out at the window as he replied. I wanted to tell you guys that those things were coming but I guess I was too late

Sure you were Nina interrupted him sarcastically. You were worried about me, werent you?

No I wasnt

Yes you were She smiled as she stood up from the sofa and approached Dennis. You were worried Dennis. Im so glad you still thought of me!

Dennis groaned, ignoring Ninas smile. He continued to look outside and was now joined with Nina.

So, this means that I can travel with you again, huh? Nina asked him happily. Her hopes were high this time. Either way, if Dennis wont allow her, she could still follow him.

No His reply came swift. No youre not.

Oh yes I will Nina teased him but he seems to be serious. Cmon Dennis. Be a good guy and let me

Nina, even though I helped you out, I still dont want you following me around. Its best you just stay here and just leave me alone.

She remained silent after those words. She could see his angry glare looking off towards the distance. He was really serious this time. She tried to find the right words to pleadbutthere wasnt anything that she could say. She felt that following him against his will, would make him more violent due to his state now

Fine then She whispered. Im staying hereDennisIIm not going to follow you anymore She looked down solemnly, hoping to make him change his mindbut it didnt

~*~*~*~

So, it was Derek who controlled the swarms Silver confirmed as he sat down with Blue in the kitchen.

Blue had a solemn expression and dried tears were all over her face. She nodded to Silvers question. Silvertherethere was something different about him. Hehe didnt look like the Derek we know. II just have this feeling that our daughter is somewhere, hurt Tears burst from her eyes once more as she trailed off into silence.

Silver looked down and clenched his fist. This was all my fault He muttered under his breath. II couldnt have believed him

Silver, that was before. II dont want you to blame yourself because of that Blue pleaded, her tears still streaming down her face. She held his tight fist gently. Silverpleasedont make this a burden to yourself

Nina stood against the wall as she listened to the conversation. She was about to tell them that Dennis had just left but upon hearing the conversation, she stopped and waited. She peeked inside the kitchen and saw Silver, facing away from her. Blue was crying while she held Silvers hand.

It was after a few seconds when Nina realized that Blue was looking at her. Nina gasped, as she was about to withdraw but Blue motioned her to sit with them. Nina walked to the table, trembling and shaking. She looked at Blue, who was now smiling and then at Silver who simply looked down. His long, red hair was tied behind him and his dark clothes made him have an ominous look. Nina sat down next to Blue and stayed silent.

So youre Nina Silver began. He then raised his head to meet Ninas startled eyes.

Nina gulped and nodded slowly and steadily. Yyes She stammered in reply.

And your friend, Dennis Silver looked at Nina sternly, which made her even more nervous.

DeDennis? He left a while ago. II wanted to tell you guys that She stammered and tried not to look away from Silvers glittering eyes.

Silver nodded and then faced Blue. You said Dennis is Yellows son, right? That blonde haired boy?

Blue nodded. Heeven though he doesnt act like her, hes still her son She whispered solemnly. Do you thinkSilverdo you think hes going toget him?

Silver sighed and then leaned back. He massaged his temples with his fingers and looked down. I dont know, BlueI dont know

Nina looked at both of them. They both had stern faces and seemed to be worried about Dennis more than their daughter right now. Wait Nina began. Why are you two worrying about Dennis? Hes not going to get hurtis he?

Silver glanced at Nina and then looked back down. It all depends if he couldnt control himself

Whats that supposed to mean? I know hes a bit immature butI dont want him getting hurt

He smirked in reply. Then why did you let him go? The most stubborn of nails can still be bent with a hammer

What?

Lets justnot talk about this for a while. Blue interrupted them both, changing the subject. So, Ninaare you going to stay with us for a while?

Nina shook her head. NoIll have to go in a while

Are you going after him? Silver asked all of the sudden.

Nina sighed and griped her fists. I dont know if hell like it

~*~*~*~

Good news everyone! The attacks have subsided! Both the Dragonairs armies and the Machop armies have disappeared from Kanto. Oddly enough, none of the Pokmon have returned from their natural habitats, so another attack from the swarms might be still possible

Dennis ignored the good news and continued walking. Now free from Ninas exasperating nagging, he can now go back to his regular training. His destination was south of Lavender town. Hell train down there then go to Fuchsia city where he can stay for a while.

He walked silently, ignoring the unsocial crowd of Lavender town. He continued traveling south until he reached the south end of the town. He looked towards the sea route that was lined with ramps for the trainers convenience. It looked calm and placid.

He walked along the ramps, steadily and cautiously as he looked at his side. The cool waters reflected his appearance and the rays of the afternoon sun. He continued walking, seeing a group of Tentacools passing by in the water. The blue jellyfish Pokmon swam gracefully with the group.

Dennis continued to look south and towards the never-ending sea. He stopped and closed his eyes. He sighed as the gentle sea breeze blew through his sandy blonde hair. The sweet smell of the brisk, salty ocean breeze was all too familiar of home. The sound of something flying from above made him open his eyes. Looking up, he tried to find the source of the sound. He found nothing in the sky except for fluffy, white clouds floating gently across the big blue.

He turned around, hoping that he will see signs of what passed him but saw nothing except Lavender towns radio tower reaching up to the clouds. But then, he heard the light tapping of footsteps from behind him. Someone just jumped. He quickly turned around to see a familiar smile.

Dennis! Where were you? Vincent greeted, grinning. His Fearow was floating on top of him, flapping its wings noiselessly. With a flick of Vincents wrist, his Fearow immediately returned to its Pokball and it bounced back into his hand.

Dennis glared at Vincent with uttermost loathing. He gripped his fist tightly that his nails began to dig into his sweaty palms.

Whats up with that lookohstill angry at me, huh? Vincent spoke coolly and calmly. Dennis, wheres Nina? He realized this since there wasnt anyone greeting him.

Dennis began to walk again and immediately passed Vincent. He ignored him even though he managed to catch up.

Dude, wheres Nina? You dont have to ignore me you know

Why do you have to get in my way? Dennis yelled as he stopped and grabbed Vincents shirt immediately. Just get out of my life He released him, turned around and continued walking. However, Vincent continued to follow him.

Im just asking where Nina is, Vincent pleaded as he tried to catch up with him.

Shes back in Lavender town! He snapped at him. Just go there, get her and leave me alone!

Vincent recoiled thinking that Dennis might snap his head off. Geez, you didnt have to scream at me He muttered. He then turned around to the opposite direction. But then, he was reminded by something. Hey, Dennis,

What? Dennis snapped quickly.

Have you heard about those new swarms?

Dennis stopped in his tracks.

Its weird since they appeared two days ago and then attacked this morning. And then, they just disappeared. Vincent smirked. Weird, huh?

Dennis turned around and glared at Vincent. And your point is?

Vincent folded his arms. Dennis, I was just worried that you and Nina were caught in those attacksand I guess Im wrong

Dennis groaned and then turned around quickly in order to get away from him. Vincent, however, continued to follow him.

Dennis ignored him as he continued to walk. His feet clomped on the wooden platforms of the route. Below them, the water splashed on the wooden poles supporting the platforms.

Giving me the silent treatment, huh? Vincent snickered. But then, he reverted his course. He quickly turned around and faced Lavender town. Say Dennis, where did you say Nina was?

Lavender town! Just go up north and leave me alone!

Vincent shrugged and started to walk up north again. Hope to see you in the League, Dennis. Dont get killed! Vincent teased as he walked on to the opposite direction.

Soon, Vincents footsteps werent heard anymore. The only thing Dennis could hear was his own clomping step while he continued to go south to Fuchsia city. His journey continued until the sun was now coming to the east. The sky that was to the west was turning purple and the clouds there were reflecting the suns beautiful rays.

Dennis paid no attention to all of this. He continued walking south and away from the platforms. He reached land and to Fuchsia city is only two days walk. Dennis found himself tired now.

He lay on the grass comfortably, observing the golden sky. The clouds reflected the crimson rays of the sun and the sweet smell of the nearby placid sea soothed him. A deep feeling of nostalgia urged him to think of home. The cool winds blew and the tall grass swayed along with it. A brush on the cheek made Dennis scratch it off. He felt warmth within himself as he watched the brown leaves fly by, carried by the wind. With a sigh, he closed his eyes and he was asleep.

~*~*~*~

He opened his eyes only to greet two solemn, deep, blue eyes looking down at him. He sat up and looked at the light green haired girl peering at him. She sat next to him in the darkness. The girls swaddling clothing wrapped around her body aimlessly.

Youyoure that girl Dennis whispered. Whatwhat are you doing? Is this a dream?

She shook her head slowly while her eyes remained transfixed to his eyes. Just seeing her eyes made Dennis uneasiness disappear.

Thenwhere am I? He asked to the girl.

The girl opened her lips slowly. You areinside you She whispered in reply. This isinside youdarkness

I dont understand Dennis said as he looked at the surroundingspure darkness. What does it mean?

The girl smiled. This is just youDennis

Dennis still couldnt understand but its best not to ask her the same question over and over again. He looked back at the smiling girl and realized what had happened from before. Youwarned me that Saffron was getting attackedII want to thank you

No, no The girl insisted. There is no gratitude needed She continued to look at Dennis with her deep, blue eyes.

Dennis scratched his head. Waitwhywhy are you here, then? He asked her.

The girls smile still remained. BecauseI wanted to see you, Dennis She replied. Even thoughfor centuries, I never had a feeling for a mortalbutyou changed that now

His eyes widened with shock. He remembered the other thing that happened in his dream. Youwhy did you kiss me before? Dennis voice shook as he tried to accept what was happening. You said you had feelings for methat means that

IIhave this feeling for you, Denniseven though we werent meant to be togethermortals should go with mortals while wewe should be left alonein this world Her smile disappeared when she sighed and looked down at her hands. Left aloneto watch mortals diewatch them fightwatch them love

Waittheres more of you? He asked all of the sudden after he heard the word we.

I guess She whispered.

And wait Dennis interrupted her before she could talk more. Youyou

Yes, I doDennis She looked at him lovingly with her deep blue eyes. When I first saw you in the darknesswhen I first saw you walk along my forestyou were a child. The second timeyou were differentyoumade me have a mortals feelings

Dennis looked at the girl and couldnt believe what he was hearing. The moment she talked about a foresthe knew immediately what she was. Youyoure the spirit of the forest He stammered. Youre the Viridian forests spirit! Its trueits true all along! I cant believe it!

The spirit looked at him silently. If thats how mortals put it She whispered. Dennis

Huh?

Why do mortals love each other?

What do you mean? Dennis asked her. He felt her arms move forward and wrap around his body. He could feel her cool, smooth skin as he placed his arm around her.

What is the reason? Whydo you mortals love each other? Ive seen so many mortalskiss each otherembracing each otherand love each otherand yetI couldnt find the reasonwhy they do it

Dennis looked down at her and she looked back with a questioning stare. Itskind of hard to explain Dennis whispered. You seewellpeople like each otherbecause they want to be together and have kids Dennis replied with awkwardly. Apparently, his answer was vague because the spirit had a confused look on her face.

Kids She repeated. Together

A small smile spread appeared on Dennis face. Well, if you put it that way He wasnt the same battle hungry person with the forest spirit. He simply looked down at her, who looked back at him lovingly. Buthow could he love someone such as this? How is he supposed to love something that is mere legendsomething that will live on forever, unhindered by time.

Listen Dennis began. I know this is a bit harshbutI cant love you backyou see, youre an immortal and Im just a guyand I dont really know how to love you

The girl sighed and looked down. I see. Mesomeone who exists for eternitymy sole purposehidden away from meand youfor only a short period of timeI see now

Dennis smiled weakly. Were really not meant to be togetherIm sorry He then sighed and looked around the heavy darkness that enveloped them. Their echoing voices reverberated into the void. The light trickling of water came from somewhere and echoed. The girl finally released him and sat in front of him.

By the way, how did you know my name? Dennis asked her.

The girl paused and then replied after a while of silence. Your friends call you that She replied to him, meekly and softly. You have a word to represent yourselfand yet IIdo not

So you dont have a name?

No She replied. I often hear of the people addressing me as the spirit of the forestand that is also what you addressed me, too

Dennis thought for a while as he looked distantly into the dark. Wait! He exclaimed. I know. I can give you a name!

Truly? The girl smiled happily.

Yeah! From now on, Id call you Dennis stroked his hair as he thought of a name. Ill call youNaomi! Yeah, thats it!

A wide smile of glee spread across the face of the girl. Naomi She repeated. What a sweet sounding name

I just thought of it from the top of my head Dennis smiled. So youyou give out powers to babies, right? Is the legend true?

It is Naomi confirmed. Butpartially

He looked at her with a confused gaze. What do you mean?

II do give out powersbutsomeone else does Naomi looked down at her smooth, pink hands. Her eyes returned back to their solemn state.

You meansomeone like you, right? Dennis asked. An immortallike you.

Nina nodded. She remained silent for a while. When Dennis tried to ask her more, she refused to reply. She simply shook her head and tried not to look into Dennis eyes.

Naomiplease tell me

She finally spoke after Dennis pleaded more. Thereis evil She simply whispered gravely. Good and evil must coexist no matter whatmortalscan be inherently goodor inherently evil

Wha?

There will come another timewhen evil and good shall clash. It always happenseverywherein every storyin every talein every legendit happensno matter what. The price is always grave Her voice was grave and stern. Her words weighed heavily on Dennis as they sent him to ponder.

Waitsothere are people who are really good and they get your powers. Dennis paused before he could continue then looked straight into Naomis eyes. Thenthere are bad peoplewho gets someone elses powers?

Naomi nodded and then stood up. I must leave She whispered to him.

Huh? But Dennis hesitated as he stood up. Naomi, there are so much things I wanted to talk about!

I apologizeI can not stay any longer She looked directly at Dennis. I justhope that we shall meet again.


Wait! Dennis yelled. He sat up, breathing hard. Naomi His voice lowered as he noticed he was back in the real world. He looked aroundthe silent meadow was there ever since he had slept. Only this time, it was morning.

The sounds of chirping filled the air. The growls of busy Pokmon from the nearby were also heard. The morning fresh breeze brushed through Dennis face as he rubbed his eyes. It was another morning. As Dennis stood up, he noticed something strange in his surroundings. He looked around and noticed green petals scattered all over the meadow. They were the same petals that came from the flower that he has seen in Saffron city. A deep sense of change and longing bloomed inside him.

All I can say is that I'm sorry I didn't get a chance to review this earlier (stupid parents and camping holidays). Anyways - to review:

Well, from what I've read, you seem to type chapters up awfully quick, you went from Chaps 12 - 13 in about 3 days, when it takes me about a week if not more to write a chapter of that sort of length and to proofread it and everything.

The good thing about this is the plot itself - it's very intriguing and it brings you right in. When I read the first chapter, it seemed a bit different to the normal type of trainer fic (which from what I read was what I expected the rest to be), and it's also nice that you include characters from the Manga (I'm assuming that's right... I don't know heads or tails of it).

Now, you asked for a critical review, so that's what this next part is all about. Please don't hate me :(

Your description is very good, but it comes in bucketloads. Lots is very good for the reader as he/she can imagine where the characters are and such, but when you put as much in as you do, it kind of drags away from the story. Also, the way you describe things with colour can be very monotonous at times. There are many different shades of purple, and you will be able to tell the difference if the sky was between amethyst and violet, but the reader can't. It's a pity, as when you do do this, it adds a really nice effect, and can enhance the reader's view of things.

Another thing that strikes me is how quick you are going through the pace. You've done as much in 13 chapters as other people would have done in about 8. There are times when you do seem to rush it. It's good to build character development before delving into the storyline. Remember - a longer fic is always better than a short fic.

Please don't take anything that I say too seriously, as this is just an opinion, and you may think completely different about it.

Now why would I hate you? I asked you to review it to point out the flaws of the story. I WANT you to whack me as hard as you can. XD

Okay, now I see what you mean with the descriptions and the pace. I'm good at pacing because I write in advance. But proofreading is sometimes tedious for me... XP

From now on, Call of Dragons shall be updated about once to three times a week. Thank you. Fear the action packed chapters! X3

Chapter 14

Naomis words echoed inside Dennis. Her soothing, whispering voice was so vivid and so real. It was as if she was actually talking to him right now at this very moment. But right now, hes walking to Fuchsia city all alone.

He pondered and thought of what he could have been if he was a different person. Just the thought of abandoning Nina in Lavender town weighed him down. Disappointing Vincent by destroying their friendship from the inside out just made him sick inside. He couldnt believe what he was thinking. His old desire to be a stronger train than the strongest was obscured and now, he was just human

He tried to summon his loathing but he could not find it inside him. He tried to find his lust for battles but it was never present. His encounter with that girlNaomichanged him. It was so quick and so dramatic; he didnt know that he changed.

He stopped and looked down at his hands. Why did he change so much? He wondered. Why in just one night? Why did he change in that encounter? He tried to reason out many things and each reason being more absurd than the other. His change remained a mystery to him. Now, he couldnt simply think of something to hate. It was as if a whole part of him vanished

~*~*~*~

Im sorry you have to see me cry, Blue smiled in front of Nina, who was standing in front of the steps.

No, its all okay, Blue. Nina smiled back. You dont have to worry about me.

Oh is that so? She teased. Im thinking that youre a damsel in distress now without your hero

Blue She fought back. I think Dennis is right! II dont need to follow him anyway

Blue folded her arms. Are you sure about that? She asked. I wouldnt be so appeasing to him. Just remember what I say to you, okay?

Nina nodded gleefully and turned around. Ill try to visit again sometime! She waved while she walked, looking behind her shoulder.

Take care! Blue waved back. Soon, Nina disappeared as she walked south. Blue smiled and walked inside her house.

As she walked in, she noticed that Silver was still there, sitting on the sofa, looking distant. She kept her smile as she walked towards him. Hey, are you going to need something?

Silver didnt look up but just shook his head. Nonot right now. He muttered and then folded his arms. I just need to think for a while.

Blue continued to smile as she sat next to him. I feel a bit stupid for crying againI havent actually cried in a long time

Silver glanced at her without moving his neck. Youve already apologized to the girl. You dont have to apologize to me, Blue.

Butwhen you see me crying, doesnt it bother you? I just feel bad making you feel bad. She sighed as she looked up at his eyes, still looking distant.

Silver remained silent. He closed his eyes and started to think. Blue immediately knew that something was bothering him.

Silver, are you blaming yourself again? She asked him in a whisper. Even though he didnt reply, silence was an affirmative answer. Please stop it! Itsits not our fault! Its not your fault, Silver. Just forget all of it! Blues voice suddenly changed into desperation. It rose beyond her normal voice and it conveyed a worried tone. Her expression showed how anxious she was.

II cant take it off my mind Silver whispered as he opened his eyes and looked down. Every time I think of itI was always the person who led her away. II was so gullibleI didnt know his intentions Silver gnashed his teeth and shut his eyes tightly. Iwitnessed itI saw it myself, Blue. I tried closing my eyes but her screams just wouldnt go away.

Silver Blue whispered. Please forget all of it

~*~*~*~

Excuse me! Nina yelled to an old lady passing her by. Could you please? Before she knew it, the old lady already passed her. Nina frowned. This was the fifth time she was ignored by the unsocial civilians.

She wasnt used to these kinds of people. She was used to asking questions but the civilians in this town refuse to even notice her. It was as if shes invisible at this very moment.

Nina stormed her way south, pouting and muttering about the people in Lavender. People ignored her cries as she turned around the corner. She was shocked when she bumped into a familiar person wearing a trench coat.

Nina! Vincent exclaimed as he immediately caught her from falling. Nina, its you!

Ninas eyes widened with delight as she finally found Vincent. Vincent! Where were you? She immediately asked.

I was about to ask that! He teased her, as she was about to speak.

The two began to converse about the unsocial people in the town. Then, their conversation moved towards the swarms. Nina was the first one to bring up Dennis.

Speaking of Dennis, did you see him? She asked.

Oh yeah. His usual hot tempered self walked by when I asked you where you were Vincent smiled.

Nina sighed and looked down. She placed her hands in her pockets. I just wish hed change for a bit

You still thinking of him?

I just cant take him off my mind! He worries me so much and I just want him to be safe She whispered. He has a family to go back tounlike us

Nina He whispered solemnly.

It was true. Nina, an orphan and Vincent whose abusive father abandoned when he was a child envied Dennis for his family. Whenever Dennis would tell stories of his family, it alienated them from the world.

Dont worry about me, Nina chided. Lets just find Dennis before he gets in trouble

~*~*~*~

Just a few more miles to Fuchsia city, Dennis thought as he gasped for air. Swear drenched his forehead and dropped on the dusty, unpaved road. It was dusk and he was feeling worn out yet he showed no signs of fatigue just a few moments ago.

He felt faint and yet he could not urge himself to stop. It was as if his feet walked on without his control. Sweat continued to drip down his forehead and down his cheek. He gnashed his teeth as he tried to take off his mind from his destination. He was feeling more tired every second and his feet wobbled as they walked.

Finally, they gave weight and he collapsed to the ground. He was breathing hard and his lungs felt as if he just ran a great distance. His hands and feet were trembling and saliva dripped from his lips. He was too weak to open his eyes. He could feel the dry wind brush against his face as his energy continued to dwindle.

Out from the silence, he heard footsteps. He heard them slowly approach him. He summoned his strength to look up. He opened one eye to see a figure stop in front of him. It was a girl with long, dark brown hair. He couldnt see clearly since he was getting drowsy and it impaired his vision.

He saw a small smile spread through the girls face. By this time, darkness shrouded the area in midnight blue. Even at the darkness, a smile was visible on the girls gentle face. He noticed two other figures rise from the ground, slowly and silently. It was as if they were shadows that came to life. He saw two wide, evil grins and two pairs of evil, red eyes, looking down at him sinisterly.

Dennis gnashed his teeth as he struggled to stand up on his knees. Gengars He muttered forcefully. Draining my energy

The girls sinister grin grew wider. She approached him a bit more closely and her face was shined by the moonlight. Her face was clear. Dennis eyes widened to see a familiar face he had seen before in a photograph. It was Blues daughter. Except that her eyes were different. The lively, sparkling eyes were replaced with dull, murky eyes that stared at Dennis sinisterly. Her lips didnt move but curved into an even wicked smile.

Youre Blues kid Dennis whispered while he struggled to take huge breaths of air. He faltered and fell face down. He felt his last bit of energy leaving him.

Pain surged up his lungs. Every time he inhaled, his lungs started to constrict and prevented him from exhaling. The more he inhaled his lungs would constrict more. Sweat drenched all over his body and his face was covered in dirt. His body lay sprawled on the ground, legs and arms spread. He closed his eyes, thinking of dying.

His family started to flash in his mind. He felt sorry for them if they ended up getting news of him dead. He thought of his mother and sister crying over his grave and his father standing next to them, comforting them of their loss. Within his thoughts, he heard low, demonic laughter. His body shivered and his heart raced. His lungs burned and his muscles started to become numb.

Before he could let himself be taken by darkness, he heard to loud yells behind him. The sound of clicking Pokballs, the shaking earth and the loud roars suddenly freed his lungs. He breathed the sweet smelling air and let it flow through his body. He opened his eyes and felt hands help him up.

Dennis, Dennis! Ninas voice cried. Dennis, say something!

Yo, Dennis! Dont die out on us now! Vincents voice echoed in his mind.

Dennis tried to move his hand and managed to close his hands into a fist. His lips moved as he whispered. Imfine He whispered weakly. Ninathat girlBlueskid

Yeah, I noticed! Nina exclaimed. Shes still after you! She pointed towards the girl who glared at the three. The two Gengars were now replaced with an army of them. Pairs of menacing, red eyes glared at them sinisterly. This isthe third army

Justfind out whats wrongwith her Dennis insisted as he struggled to sit up. Illfight off these things

Vincent held him back. Youre in no condition to fight! He yelled. Nina and me will handle this!

Before Dennis could say anymore, Vincent quickly stood up and commanded his Cloyster, which was already summoned out to attack the Gengars that were surrounding them. Nina followed after she carefully let Dennis lie down on the ground. She started attacking forward with her Flareon towards Blues daughter.

Dennis tried to sit again and fight along but he was still weak. His fingers felt weak and his arms were still numb. Vincent was still fighting off the Gengars with his Cloyster. Attack to attack; he fought in darkness, watching the pairs of eyes fade on the ground and turn into shadows after being hit by his Cloysters ice beam. Nina on the other hand, lit up the night with her Flareons fire spin, engulfing numerous Gengars within it, making them disappear.

After minutes of furious battles, there seems to be something wrong. When defeated Gengars disappear, replacements appeared out of the darkness. They could see the eyes appear from the darkness of the night, only lit by the moons light. The shady figure that was Alyssa stood out from the armies of evil shadows.

After continuing her way towards Alyssa, Nina was now completely surrounded by Gengars. Theres no turning back now She thought.

Vincent still continued to fight of the advancing Gengars, protecting Dennis. By now, Dennis summoned his strength to stand up. He succeeded in doing so and took out his Pokball. Without saying a word, he threw it and immediately released a yellow Pokmon with a long neck and a long, fat tail ending in a ball of gold light. His Ampharos was ready to listen for his attack.

Flash! Dennis yelled. In an instant, his Ampharos tail immediately shined brighter and completely fought off the darkness. Many of the Gengars growled because of the tremendous amount of light and quickly faded back into the shadows. However, many stayed. Nina still continued on her way towards Alyssa, who had a startled expression from the light.

Thunder bolt! Dennis commanded, pointing towards an incoming shadow ball. His Pokmon emitted a yellow light from the bright jewel in its forehead and turned into bolts of electricity and threw it towards the dark ball of energy, completely obliterating it. On your left! Dennis yelled. It turned left and sent out a wave of electricity towards the Gengars on the left but missed since the Gengars simply faded out and retreated on the ground.

Dennis, over here! Vincent yelled, waving his arms.

Dennis looked over to him and noticed that the Gengars were starting to use the hypnosis attack on Vincents Cloyster. Vincents Cloyster managed to avoid the hypnotizing gaze of the enemy Gengars. Ice beam! While dodging a hypnosis attack, the shell Pokmon sent out a blue beam towards enemies. It froze a few targets but some survived and started throwing shadow balls.

Thunder bolt! Dennis yelled. There was enough time to destroy the incoming shadow balls. Again! He commanded while glancing at Nina who seems to not be facing any problem. His Ampharos sent out another bold of electricity, which sent back some Gengars to the shadows. Soon, there seems to be no more but a few that were facing Nina.

FunnyI thought they were supposed to be more Vincent muttered.

Stop thinking! Dennis scolded him as he and his Ampharos ran over towards Nina. Help Nina!

Vincent shrugged. Right With his Cloyster trailing behind him, he followed Dennis.

Only a bit more Sweat glazed Ninas forehead as she tried to stand the heat emitted by her Flareon. The grinning shadows continued to send out shadow balls and materialize in front of her as she concentrated on her target. A bit more

Nina! Dennis yelled as they ran nearer. But before they could reach her, the Gengars materialized in front of them again. But this time they looked at them devilishly and then, slowly walked into each other. They immediately dwindled in number but they grew larger. Then, they walked into each other again and grew bigger, once more. Then againand againand againuntil one gigantic Gengar stood in front of them.

Vincent looked up, his jaw hanging down. Dennis stared in horror and gnashed his teeth. A small chuckle came from the Gengar as it looked down at its dwarfed opponents.

Thunder! Dennis managed to yell. A loud growl came from his Ampharos and summoned out a huge thunderbolt that came crashing down from the sky. It crashed down at the Gengar, sending shockwaves all over the place. Smoke immediately clouded the area. As the smoke cleared, the Gengar continued to stare down at them, unfazed.

Thiswill be hard Vincent muttered.

Meanwhile, Nina still continued to fight off incoming shadow balls and random slashes. Her Raichu now joined her Flareon. Both of them sending out attacks from Gengars and at the same time, receiving attacks.

Sergio, use thunder wave! Cedric, fire blast on the paralyzed Gengars! Her Pokmon obeyed without hesitation. First came a thunder wave, which stopped the Gengars in their tracks. Next, a devastating wheel of fire came from Cedric, immediately eliminating any threat from the Gengars. Keep doing it guys! Keep doing it!

Over to the colossal Gengar, Dennis and Vincent were having troubles. The Gengar sent out devastating shadow balls towards them, missing both trainers and their Pokmon by a few feet. Gargantuan craters scarred the ground.

Vincent! You attack to the feet! I attack on the belly! Dennis yelled.

Right! Vincent responded. He pointed towards the feet and commanded the attack. Freeze it with blizzard! He yelled. Cloyster immediately sent out a powerful, frigid gale mixed with snow and sent it towards the Gengar. Ice started to form around the Gengars feet. The giant looked down in astonishment and in anger. It roared and sent out a nightshade attack on Vincent and his Cloyster.

Thunderbolt! Dennis yelled. The bolt of electricity from Dennis Ampharos stopped the shadowy, dark attack. The nightshade engulfed the thunderbolt within itself and then disappeared. Now! Use thunder wave on the middle! With a bright wave of electricity, Dennis Ampharos managed to paralyze the Gengars torso.

The Gengar was now infuriated. It opened its mouth, and something inside started glowing. A distinct yellow color that was all too familiar for Dennis. It was a hyper beam attack. A hyper beam from something like this Gengar would be powerful enough to destroy everything for miles.

Vincent! To the head! To the head! He yelled frantically. Use your strongest Pokmon!

Vincent nodded, returned his Cloyster and sent out his Blastoise. Dennis did the same and sent out his Dragonite.

Attack on the head! Ready?

Ready as you are! Vincent replied back.

Fury, dragon breath!

Blastoise, hydro pump!

Both attacks headed towards the head. But it didnt seem to faze the Gengar since it continued to charge for the hyper beam attack. It is now clear to how much the destruction this Gengar would cause.

Again! Two attacks from the ground fired once more. Again, they didnt do any effect. Longer!

The two attacks fired again, this time, it was longer. The blast of water continued to fire and so did the yellow breath attack. But still, it didnt harm the Gengar. It was now evident that they are going to looseunless

Alyssa! The path was now cleared. All Gengars guarding Alyssa were defeated or joined together to form the colossal Gengar. Nina began to run towards her, seeing her friends trouble. She could see her and she screamed out her name. When she reached her, she had nothing else to do but throw her arms around her.

Alyssa looked at her, startled. Her lips began to move in midst of her trance. MomMom She whispered. Mom

Alyssawhy are you doing this? Nina asked her. Please tell meIll help you go back to your mom.

Alyssas breaths began to grow short. Pleasehelp me She whispered. It was apparent that she seems to be fighting off something. Pleasetell Momand Dadhelp

Nina felt a powerful wind rush through her and she felt something cold touch her. With a blink of an eye, she was holding no one. She turned around to see Dennis and Vincent exhaustedfacing nothing but air. The giant Gengar disappeared. The silver twilight lit the battlefield. Three exhausted trainers looked at each other as they were reunited.

The cool breeze of the night blew through the marred field. Silence shrouded them and the twilight lit their way. Without another word, the three continued on to their destination. The passing night echoed with the young girls plight for help.

To be continued...

Chapter 15

So this girl you sayshe was one of the kids who got abducted by those dragon armies, right? Vincent reassured as she faced Nina.

She is. Im sure of it. And Im sure somethings wrong with her. She said that she needed help Ninas voice trailed off and looked over at Dennis who was staring distantly out in the window.

The three managed to walk a few more miles before sleeping for the night after that incident. When morning broke out, the three already continued on to Fuchsia city. Once they reached it, they ignored the crowd that stared at them strangely and checked in at a local trainer hotel. They never said a word to each other except only a few where Vincent had to cheer Nina up.

After a few minutes rest and shower, Nina and Vincent decided to talk about the incident. Dennis seems to be ignoring them but isnt acting his old kind self neither his old bad tempered self. Something odd happened to him and Nina seem to notice that.

Help? Why would she need help? I mean she has that Nina interrupted Vincent when she raised her hand to silence him.

Dennis remained quiet looking down at the street down below. Nina and Vincent remained silent, expecting Dennis to say something harsh or coarsebut he didnt

Dennis? Nina called him. He replied with a small groan, meaning that hes listening. Denniswhy are you so silent?

It took a while before he could reply. Why do you want to know?

Dennis, Im worried about you! Nina raised her voice all of the sudden. One time, youre nice, the other time, youre so meanand now, you dont want to talk to us! Not even a thank you or something to tell to your friends? Her voice cracked as she spoke. Im worried about you, Dennis. As a friendplease tell me whats wrong

Nothing! Dennis turned around and glared at her. He was obviously hiding something. Theres nothing wrong with me! Just leave me alone. Do you want me to be quiet or do you want me screaming at you now?

The tone of his voice wasnt the same when he yelled at Nina. There was something strangeit was as if he forced himself to yell at her rather than letting himself loose. She looked at him with concerned eyes. Even his glare was forceful. He then returned to looking back to the window.

Vincent was the first to turn back the discussion. Soas I was sayingwhy would she need help if she has that army with her?

Nina sighed. I dont know. Im just thinking that theres something controlling her. Im thinking that it must be those dragonsbutthey couldnt possibly do that to humans She looked again at Dennis.

And you said her names Alyssa, right?

Nina nodded. Shes the daughter of that man we saw when we were going to Saffron. She added.

Whoa! Vincents eyes widened. That guy? That red haired dude with those creepy eyes? He looked at Nina sternly and watched her nod. Buthow did you know all of this stuff

Wemet the girls motherand she told us about her. Nina replied softly. She held her elbow with her hand and fell silent.

Vincent knew at once that she needed time to think. He reached out for her chin and tilted her head up. He smiled warmly, which made Nina smile, too. Cmere. Vincent whispered softly as he moved towards her and hugged her. Well rest a bit before we go, okay?

Nina hugged him back and nodded. She still remained silent and didnt notice Dennis looking behind his shoulder at them. A fierce glare was apparent.

~*~*~*~

Dennis woke up drenched in sweat. He immediately sat up and noticed that it was still dark. The lights were all closed and only a single beam streamed though the curtain from the fluorescent lights from the outside provided him light. He wiped the sweat from his forehead, thinking of the nightmare he just had.

He couldnt remember much but he remembered the three armies surrounding him. He remembered the two leaders of the two other armies composed of Machops and Gengars. But then, a leaderless Dragonair army would be against him. He remembered the Dragonairs firing their searing beams towards himand then he woke up.

He stood up, feeling shaky and moved towards a table where three glasses and a pitcher of cold water sat. He picked up the pitcher and poured the icy cold water into one of the glasses. After filling it up halfway, he placed the pitcher back and drank from the glass. He sighed as he felt the cold liquid moving down his throat and into his stomach. Afterwards, he moved towards the curtains and shoved them away, making the light stream though half of the room. Then he turned around.

He saw Vincent out of his bed and on Ninas bed, hugging her as she slept. They both slept soundly. Nina was smiling as Vincents arms kept her warm. Dennis could do nothing but scowl as he moved back to his bed and lie down. He rested his head on his arms, which he placed behind his head. Suddenly, it occurred to him. Is he actually jealous? Why was he glaring when Nina and Vincent hugged? Within minutes of thinking he immediately fell back to sleep.

~*~*~*~

Are you sure youre fine? Vincent asked for the third time.

Vincent, Im okay! Nina insisted. You dont have to worry about me. Look, youre kind and allbutIm just fine

Nina was quiet for past few minutes after returning to their room after breakfast. She was deep in thought about Alyssa all day long. She seems to be worried about her like how an older sister would worry about her younger sister. She was asking everyone about news of a Gengar army but so far, no one has ever encountered one yet nor did the news report it.

Wheres Dennis anyway? She noticed his absence. Hes been acting weird lately

I think he went off to a walk Vincent replied. Oh Dennis is always weird

Vincent stopped when Nina gave him a serious look. Itsnot like that She whispered solemnly. Vincenthes just not himself. Not the Vincent we know beforeor the one that was like him a few days ago. Hes so silentand its as if hes fighting himself inside him

His smile was replaced with a blank expression. I see what you mean. Hes our friendandmaybe we should know whats bothering him His smile returned. Im sure his mood will come back. Besides, only six more months before the League!

Nina nodded enthusiastically. Youre right. She beamed. Lets just find him and cheer him up!

Vincent gave a warm smile, which made her blush. She looked down and then began to walk out to the door. Vincent was following her and then, she felt his hand hold hers.

Vincent She whispered as she flushed red.

To her, he hasnt changed ever since she met him. They were both the sameno family to return to. Now, they faced each other, blushing and breathing slowly. She could still remember that day when she first met both Dennis and Vincent. Those memories were as vivid as ever. She could still remember her life in the orphanage. The times when she used to play

~*~*~*~

She remembers nothing of her parents. She never saw them nor had a clue to what they look like. She never had a family that she knew. All she ever remembered was playing along with friends in that orphanage, her birthday, that was stored in her record, and the name of her parents who died while she was still a baby.

Nina was always known to be the cheeriest of all the younger kids. She had that dream of becoming a Pokmon League Champion. Every year, there would be kids leaving the orphanage to their Pokmon journeys. She always kept that dream near her and always inside her even though some kids that left were never heard from again.

The orphanage never allowed Pokmon for the orphans. That was why her other dream was to get her own Pokmon. The orphanage was somewhere north of Viridian city where most of the rural people reside. The kids used to go near the Viridian forest to play there.

That eventful day came. Her eleventh birthday arrived and soon, she was packing up for her journey to Pallet town. With hugs from her friends and the permission of the orphanage director, she was already on her way to Pallet town. Waving goodbye to her friends, she could see their happy faces. Some of them wanted to stay and not become trainers and yet others, kids that are younger that her also wanted to be like her.

While she walked, she remembered what the other kids that returned from their Pokmon journeys say. Its best to get a starting Pokmon in the laboratory in Pallet town rather than catch one without any Pokmon yet. So south she went.

After a few hours of walking and rest, she finally made it to the laboratory. She moved towards the door of the white, box like building and knocked on the wooden door. The door looked old since splinters protruded from it and the white paint was chipped. She waited a few minutes for a reply.

She then heard muffled footsteps from the inside. They were getting louder as they approached the door. Nina gulped as she waited for the reply, imagining an old, cranky professor with gray hair on the other side of the door. Most of the kids told her about that kind of a person in the lab.

The doorknob twisted and door opened, revealing a tall, green eyed, and dark brown spiky haired professor that must be in his late twenties. He looked quite disheveled and his sleeves were rolled up to his elbows. His lab coat reached down to his knees. Inside the open lab coat, he wore regular casual clothes. Ah, you must be another trainer! A wide smile spread across his face.

Nina nodded slowly and silently. It was apparent that she was scared since her knees were trembling. The professor peered at her through his reading glasses. The thin, metal frames reflected the sunlight.

II want to get a Pokmon, pplease? She stammered.

Well that will be fine. Come in!

Nina stepped in the lab as she continued to shudder in fear, thinking that the old professor might appear out of nowhere and start yelling at her. The younger professor ushered her though the lab after he closed the door.

Youre lucky since theres only one Pokmon left for you, He looked at Nina and noticed the fear in her eyes. Are you scared or something?

Huh? Oh, noI meanisnt there an older professor here? She stammered. My friends told me about himand they said that hes

Oh you mean my grandfather? Hes passed away a months ago, The professor straightened his glasses as he continued to walk.

Oh, Im sorry I asked

No, no. Its fine. By the way, I havent learned your name yet,

My name? Oh! Its Nina She replied, feeling a bit relieved and sorry at the same time due to the absence of the older professor.

Ninaits nice to meet you. My name is Green Oak. Well, you can call me Professor Oak if you want,

Nina smiled weakly as she was led into a room with shelves lined up along the walls. The shelves were full of empty Pokballs. She looked around at the empty red and white balls and watched the professor select an occupied one from the shelf to her left. The professor then showed the Pokball to Nina. She peered inside and saw a small, Pokmon on all fours. A distinct bulb lay in its back. The Pokmon looked back at her through the transparent glass-like red part of the Pokball. She took the Pokball from the professors hand and continued examining it.

Now this is a Bulbasaur. Its a dual type Pokmon, meaning that it has two types. Its part grass type and part poison type

Nina was partially listening. She was staring at her first Pokmon with excitement building. It was apparent since her expression conveyed her emotions. When the professor was finished explaining, she managed to utter out a few words. Ththank you She stammered. Thank you, professor! She exclaimed as she looked up and flashed a large grin.

Youre welcome, The professor smiled back and then began leading Nina to the exit. You are very lucky, Nina. You were really just in time since two trainers already got their Pokmon.

Huh?

My son and another boy picked out their own first Pokmon earlier this morning. Maybe you can meet them and Im sure you three will be great friends! The professor looked back from his shoulder to Nina.

Nina nodded and grinned weakly. Friends She thought. Im going to have friends

So Nina began as she walked along the dirt road with her Bulbasaur, walking near her. What do you want to do first, Zane?

Her Bulbasaur peered at her dazedly. It didnt seem to understand what she just said. Instead, it let out a low growl.

I know, how about we go battling some wild Pokmon?

Now this time, her Pokmon understood clearly since it stopped and shook it head from left to right. Nina stopped and turned around. She placed her hands on her hips and walked towards her Bulbasaur. Come on, Zane. We gotta train if we want to win the League, She kneeled down and picked up her Bulbasaur, which was a bit heavy for her.

Letsstart over there! She muttered roughly as she walked to the side of the road. She placed her Bulbasaur down and looked at the tall grass. Lets find ourselves some wild Pokmon!

It shook his head once more and inched back. It growled weakly as if it was trying to avoid the grass. Nina approached her Bulbasaur and asked whats wrong. Then she heard voices from the nearby. She heard two boys yelling out commands. Two other growls were heard and then the sound of flames bursting came next.

Whats that? Nina muttered. She quickly followed the voices, which came distantly across the field of tall grass. Even though she was wearing shorts, she still made her way through the field, despite the nicks and cuts.

She ran though the fields and passed though scattered trees. Finally, she saw two figures rising out from the grass. Smoke rose from the meadow and she could clearly see the two boys locked in battle. She hid behind a tree that was near and peered at the two.

Havoc, ember! The blonde haired boy yelled, pointing towards the dark haired boy.

Her heart leapt when she saw a burst of flame rise from the grass and immediately head out to the victim. The dark haired boy leapt back a few feet and a blue head seem to pop out of tall grass, moving back along with its trainer. The ember attack was clearly a miss since Nina could see a self-satisfied smile on the dark haired boys face. The blonde haired boy gritted his teeth as he waited for an attack.

Nina moved over, undetected, to another tree, making herself closer. Now, she could see the two Pokmon that were battling. One orange Pokmon was surrounded by burnt grass. Its tail ended up in a small, ball of flame and its claws were exceptionally sharp. It growled fiercely at its opponent, which was a blue Pokmon with a curled tail and a shell. Its smooth, round head bobbed up and down as it gasped for air. It was clearly tired.

Squirtle, water gun, The dark haired boy pointed towards the Charmander. The Squirtle obeyed by inhaling first, and then released a blast of water towards the Charmander.

The Charmander moved to the side, dodging the attack without much effort. Now, the Squirtle was open for a finishing blow.

Havoc, ember, again! At once, Havoc poised its tail up and converted the tiny ball of flame into a large ball of flame. A ball of flame immediately shot out from the fireball and headed towards the defenseless Squirtle.

The direct hit scored the finishing touch. The dark haired boy groaned in displeasure as his Squirtle fainted. He raised his hand and caught the Pokball that was bouncing back. He sighed in exhaustion while he looked at the blonde haired kid, congratulating his Charmander and patting its head.

Good job, Havoc! The boy exclaimed as he patted his Charmanders round shaped head. Havoc squealed happily as its trainer rubbed its head.

Nina continued to peer at the two boys but then heard distinct growling noises on her arms. She realized that she was squeezing her Bulbasaur too hard that it began to choke and cough. Oops, She muttered as she pulled out her Pokball and returned it. Sorry, Zane

Huh? Whats that? The dark haired boy said as he swiftly turned around.

The blonde haired boy returned his Charmander and glanced up at the dark haired boy. What do you mean?

I thought I heard someone whisper

Nina gulped as she tried to remain silent. Instead, she emitted a low squeaking noise.

There it goes again! Its from the tree! The two boys moved towards the tree quickly. Nina yelped as she started to run away but the blonde haired boy quickly grabbed her jacket.

Ack! Let me go! She squirmed and fought, but instead, she collapsed back at the blonde haired boy. The boy held her arms tightly and helped her regain balance.

Its just a girl, The dark haired boy muttered moving towards both of them.

Nina moved away from the two with a fierce glare. Just a girl? She scowled. Im not just a girl! Im a trainer!

The blonde haired boy stared at her with a blank expression. A trainer He muttered. Saydo you want to battle? A wide grin spread across his young face.

Nina stared at the two and shook her head. No thanks She replied, her voice a bit trembling. I just saw you two battling She looked down with her hands holding each other behind her. UmI have a question?

Huh? What? The dark haired boy asked. He walked next to the blonde haired boy. His dark eyes shined brightly as he observed Nina.

Are you two the trainers from that laboratory? She asked timidly. She looked up at both of them and saw them nod.

I just got my Squirtle killed by this guy The black haired boy pointed his thumb at the yellow haired boy. I guess Im not that strong yet He smiled guiltily then scratched the back of his head.

Arent you the professors son? She asked him.

Me? Nah. Im not him. The professor has a kid? I didnt know

Im the professors son The blonde haired boy interjected coolly. I started my training, tooand I met him He pointed towards the dark haired kid.

Nina stared at him wide-eyed. Youre the professors kidwow She gasped. Youyou dont look like him

The black haired kid was equally shocked since he stared at him with astonishment. Youyoure the professors kid? He stammered, voice trembling.

The professors son looked at both of the astonished beginners. He shrugged and returned to his blank expression. Uhsowe havent really introduced ourselves He broke the silence between them.

Right! The dark haired kid snapped out of his astonished stare. Vincent! He lent out his hand.

He stared at his hand and then grabbed it with his. Dennis He replied, shaking his hand.

Nina smiled as she mentioned her name. She looked at them both and approached them. SayumDennis, Vincent. Wanna be friends?

Dennis looked at her curiously but Vincent was first to reply. Sure! I wanna have as many friends to battle! He smirked and looked over at Dennis.

Okay Dennis muttered. Ill bea friend His voice trailed off as he placed his hands in his pockets.

Nina smiled eagerly with her newly made friends. Okay! Lets go!

~*~*~*~

Any sign of him? Vincent asked her. They were wandering around the streets of Fuchsia city.

Nina managed to snap out off her daydreaming and looked at Vincent who had a stern look. No She said back. I havent seen him

Vincent shrugged. Want to split up and find him?

Nina shook her head rapidly. NoI dont want to She trailed off. I just dont want to She had a strange feeling of not wanting to leave Vincent. She looked up at Vincent who was a foot taller than her and smiled. Vincent beamed back as they continued to find Dennis.

New chapter!

Chapter 16

Youre worthless! You just cant do things! Utterly worthless! If only your mother wouldve died sooner then I couldve thrown you away! The thundering voice of Vincents father reverberated in his mind. Useless rubbish! Get out of my sight! Get away! Run away for all I care!

He cowered down at his fathers feet and trembled in fear. He just received a punch to the gut and a kick to the face. Blood dripped from his mouth. He saw his fathers shadow move away and heard his footsteps fade. Then he was alone.

~*~*~*~

Vincent?

Vincent suddenly opened his eyes and noticed Nina by his side. He noticed that the sun was almost setting. The sky was filled with colors of violet and gold.

Is there something wrong? She whispered sternly. Youdidnt look so well a second ago

Vincent rubbed his forehead and wiped off the sweat. Im fine, He looked at Nina and smiled warmly. Nothings bothering me

Nina smiled, too as she held his hand. Their search for Dennis was taking all noon. He wasnt anywhere around the city so their only choice was outside of the city. They were walking south and towards the beach. The sounds of the waves were near and the sweet smell of the salty ocean was close. It wafted around them softly.

After a few minutes walk, they finally reached the beach. The sound of the waves was soothing and the air was cool and calming. They looked around the empty beach, strewn with empty shells and rocks. Finally, they found a figure sitting on the sandy shores, looking over at the vast ocean.

It was Dennis. His unmistakable sandy blonde hair was flowing with the wind. His arms tucked his bent knees and his gaze was distant. He looked sternly over at the distance and the sun cast a long shadow on the glittering sand.

Nina let go of Vincents hand as they approached him slowly. Dennis mustve heard them coming since their shoes made sounds on the sand. But he still continued to look over at the distant.

Dennis Nina was the first one to call his name. Were you here all day? She questioned him.

He sighed and looked down at the empty shells and smooth surfaced rocks. Seaweed touched his dark boots. Yeah He muttered and stood up slowly, dusting his pants. You want me to go back to the hotel? He turned around to face the crimson sun.

We were a bit worried about you Vincent replied. You were acting kinda weird lately

Dennis didnt reply as he placed his hands in his pockets silently. He turned to them and began to walk. He walked past them and opened his mouth. Lets go back

Without saying a word, the two followed him silently and calmly. It finally confirmed their thoughts that he changed, basically. He was different from the Dennis they knew and he was certainly not the arrogant, self-centered one.

As they entered the city, Nina had the courage to ask him. Dennis, whywhy did you change?

He looked from his shoulder. Change? He repeated. What do you mean?

Nina knew that he was going to deny it. Dennis, why are you sososullen all of the sudden? You dont yell at usor anything

I havent changed Dennis lied. Why bother asking me? His tone was monotonous. He didnt yell nor raised his voice. It was just flat

Nina didnt reply to his remark. She looked down and then at Vincent who simply shrugged.

~*~*~*~

Dennis stood silently in the darkness. He remained standing and didnt move. He felt a faint sensation inside him and the scent of something sweet and fragrant was nearby. He immediately recognized the familiar scent. He opened his eyes slowly and realized the darkness that surrounded him.

The faint green aura that came from Naomi touched him as he looked at her face. She was wearing a smilea familiar one. The smile resembled that of his mother. The sweet, curved smile that he has seen her wear whenever she was happy and he always sees her with that smile. It was so familiar that his first impression of Naomi when he opened his eyes was of his mother. Naomi stared at him silently and continued to smile.

Naomi Dennis called her name.

She looked up straight into his eyes. She looked so much like his mother. Except that her eyes were so solemnand full of sadness. Her light green hair fell softly down to her shoulders.

Naomi He repeated. Since last timewhywhy did I change? He asked her. I feel so different and my friends notice it, toowhy?

Naomi continued to smile. Then her lips moved to reply. Its becauseyou are still good insideDennis. Even ifyour view of the worldis so impairedI can still alter your view.

But why? II like the way I used to be!

But you friends do not Naomi interrupted him. Now, her smile faded and her face had a blank expression. Dennisyou arebetter this way. It is best for youbecause besides your familyyou are loved

Dennis looked back at her with confusion. I thought I told you before that

No, Dennisyou were loved by another girland deep inside you, you love her backbut you could not put yourself to believe thatthe girl adores you Naomi whispered to him. Deep inside youeven before we first metyou loved herbut you could not bring yourself to believe it

He immediately fell silent to her words. It was true. He does love Nina. It was a strange feeling inside him that began to spread in his insides. A warm feeling and a desire to be near her. He was jealous after all

I see now that youve accepted the fact Naomi said softly. Well thenmy message

Dennis looked up into her mesmerizing eyes.

Dennis, please flee the city the moment you wake up. It is not the city who is in danger of attackit is you She spoke softly. Youendanger your friendsand the innocents that live within the city

He looked at her, wide-eyed and shocked. What do you mean by that? Danger of attack? What are you talking about?

Dennisthe army of dragons has returned. Pleaseleavefor they seek only you. They shall slay anyoneanyone who dares to get in their way

Butbut I cant just leave my friends! II dont know where to go in the first place! And why are they attacking me?

Naomi held his hand. Her skin feels cold and smooth at the same time. Cross the sea She moved forward and whispered it to his ear. Leave nowforyou cannot stay any much longer. Do not forget that someone still loves youand pleasedont hide it away

Naomi Dennis whispered back. He felt her soft, cold cheek brush onto his and then felt her lips press onto his cheek. It was another kiss from her. Naomi moved back and stared at Dennis eyes lovingly. He stared back at her in bewilderment and surprise. Do you stilllove me?

She flushed red the moment he said the words. She looked down at her body, which was covered by silk linen running all over, randomly covering parts of her body. She nodded a faint, subtle nod. She looked more like a mortal than a spirit.

Butwhy? He asked. I already told you about us. Were not supposed to be together, because soon, Ill dieandyoull have to feel sorry for me. Youll feel sad forever Dennis voice was trembling as he stammered his way through his explanation.

Naomi nodded once more and then closed her eyes. If so She began. Why dont youkiss me yourselfthenI promiseto leave you be She whispered softly and calmly.

Dennis heart raced immediately and shock hit him like a hard brick in the face. She wanted him to kiss her but then Naomi, I dont want you leaving me alone. I just wanted to tell you that His words are useless to her. She remained silent with her head lowered. Dennis gulped and gripped his sweaty palms. His mind raced as he thought of something to do. Of course, he had no choice

He moved forward to her, tilted her head up and then pressed his warm lips unto her cold lips. At that moment, Dennis was half panicking as he felt her arms wrap around his body. It was a few seconds when the kiss broke apart and they were once again, staring at each other.

Farewell She whispered solemnly. May wemeet againsomeday


Dennis strained his eyes as he tried to focus them with the dark. Naomis message remained vivid in his mid. He must flee now because another army is going to attackhim. He realized that his previous suspicion that the armies are after him became true. The dragon army was going after him after all.

Naomis message was to cross the sea. And thats what hes going to do. He immediately stood up, feeling his joints pop a bit. He moved towards his folded clothes on a nearby table and quickly dressed. He looked at the closed curtains and opened them. The window faced the placid ocean and the moonlight reflected at the peaceful and calm sea. Without another word, he grabbed his Pokballs on the table and moved across the room. Then he stopped in his tracks.

He looked paused and looked over at Ninas bed. She slept peacefully and silently. She was comfortably tucked in her bed and this time, Vincent wasnt sleeping with her. Dennis moved slowly to her bed, his heart pounding and Naomis words reverberating inside him.

You love herbut you cannot bring yourself to believe it

Nina He whispered softly. He was kneeling next to her bed. Im sorry. Butwhy do I love you? I justcantI just cant He realized that he was squeezing her hand tightly. He sighed as he let go of her slowly and touched her cheek. Im sorryI have to leave you. But dont worryIll be back. I promise you wont be disappointedbecauseIll changeI promise He moved forward and gave her a small kiss to the cheek. He then stood up and quickly moved towards the door and exited quickly.

~*~*~*~

Naomis words still remained in his head. He needs to cross the sea before the dragon army would find him in the city. It was only a few minutes before he realized that he was facing the ocean once more. It was still dark and the only lights came from the moon and from the city.

He sighed as he looked at the calm ocean and felt the tranquil breeze. A few seconds passed and he realized that the calm breeze immediately turned into a gale. He opened his eyes and noticed unrest in the ocean. It seems that waves were clashing in the distance and the waves started to grow stronger. He turned around and he saw them once more. The sky was clouded with Dragonairs. Bright, red orbs glowed and lit the sky. There were more than thousands of them. Now, Dennis had to really move.

He threw his Pokball into the air, which released his Dragonite. It swooped down and helped Dennis climb on its back. Fury, lets cross the sea! He yelled.

With a growl, his Dragonite obeyed and flapped its small wings. It was immediately airborne and was now crossing the sea. The Dragonair army followed him without a sound. The only sound that he can hear was his panting, the flapping of his Dragonites wings, and the conflicting ocean below. He needed to get away from the Dragonairs fast. But how can he?

His heart pounded wildly, his temples throbbed, and his palms started to sweat as he held tightly. He looked back over his shoulder and saw that the army is still following him. He muttered a swear word and urged his Dragonite to fly faster. It obeyed and increased its speed by flapping its wings more rapidly. Water from below shot up due to the wind that was forced by his Dragonite.

But still, the army continued to follow him by going even faster than his Dragonite. They were gaining faster and faster. Dennis looked back and noticed that he was now miles away from the city. He was in the middle of the nowhere and the only thing lighting his way was the moon. In the distance, he could see two islands. His heart leapt since he knew that he was near Seafoam Islands. He could hide there for a while.

Before he could hesitate, a hot, searing beam passed them. He noticed that the Dragonairs started to attack him. Another hyper beam followed and it almost hit him. Beam upon beam, they kept dodging the attacks. They glided from the left and then to the right, narrowly missing a few attacks. But then, he didnt notice a hyper beam that came directly into his path. Fury collided with the beam and screamed out in agony. The combined force of the hyper beam was enough to knock it out.

Now, Dennis was falling down into the ocean. He immediately returned Fury and was about to take out Havocs Pokball. But by the time, he crashed into the ocean. The moment he crashed into it, he immediately fainted.
