“Stop looking at the world through your camera lens already. We're almost out of this place.”
“This place is going to be completely remodeled in a few days. We should take some evidence for historians to use and as a historical record of what this place used to be like.”
Kris groaned in agony, grabbing one of the upward bends in her hair and toying with it in frustration. “We could already be in Lavender Town by now.”
Takuya shut the camera up as he stepped out, the mid-morning sunlight raising the temperature, and subsequently, the humidity with the recent rain. He reached around his back, trying to grab one a zipper on one of the compartments on his pack. “Eon, this wouldn't be so hard if you weren't laying on my neck.”
The brown-and-white furred pokemon cooed, apparently half-asleep while laying on her trainer's neck, bag, and head.
“Figures. I'll just hold onto this then. We're bound to run into SOME kind of trainers to battle.”
The two walked southward from the factory for some time, until they came across a large body of water. “This will be interesting. These waters are WAAAAY to strong for me to swim against.”
“You don't have a surfing pokemon...” Kris facepalmed hard. “Not boyfriend material, I don't want to drag some kid along with me.” She whispered to herself.
“You say something?”
“Wani-Wani, I need you for a second.”
She tossed a pokeball into the air, kicking it as it began plummeting down to earth. The impact of her foot on the side of the sphere unleashed it's contents into the world. A blue Totodile stood several feet away from the duo, leaping into the air and being very boisterous with a scratchy voice.
“Wani-Wani, can you get me across this place? Please?” She clapsed her hands together and stuck her bottom lip out at the small water-type, who turned around and leapt into the water, easily resisting the flow it had. “Good job! Let me climb on boy!”
Takuya watched as the girl jumped into the water. “Our paths split here Kanto boy, unless you find some way of getting across this expanse.” The male watched the female as she slowly swam away. He looked over his shoulder at the Eevee, or more specifically, her bushy tail as it curled over his shoulder.
“I'll see what I can do!” He shouted back across. “See you in Lavender Town!”
Kris rolled her eyes in the distance. “Cute guy. But nooo potential in farthering myself or my career. I'm going to probably be out of that city before he even gets halfway there.”
- - - - -
Takuya shuffled his feet as he stepped into Lavender Town, the afternoon sun beating down on him. “Made it. I bet that she's waiting somewhere around here.” His main team of four all stood beside him, each of them looking considerably fresher then their trainer. All four of them looked at the sprawling city landscape with an amazed look in their eyes. While Takuya would be similarly amazed if it was any other situation, his tired body took a lot of the edge off of his reactions. Every building was painted some shade of purple, most of them light and sun-bleached purple, but purple none the less.
“I need to invest in hiking boots, these shoes aren't cutting it, and I don't want to have to buy a new pair every new town I walk into.” He walked toward the center of the town. “I'll likely find Kris at the center.”
Speaking of the female, she stepped out of the Pokecenter just as he was walking up. “Oh...no...how did he do that?”
“Told ya I'd catch up.” He looked like a mess. His shoes and the lowest section of his pants were stained with soil, sweat covered his shirt and had even began to stain his jacket. The bandanna he had been wearing around his forhead was coated in sweat, and he seemed to have gained a light gash on his left hand.
“How did you do that?”
“While learning Chung Doe Kwan, I was told by my instructor that as long as I kept a sound mind with a sound body, I should be able to do any challenge. He's right. Hiking over those small mountains...or more like around them, wasn't quite as hard as I thought it was.” A yawn emanated from his mouth. “Just drained me of my energy.”
“I see...” She groaned, looking off to the side. “I guess this is where we-”
“Hey! Aren't you that guy?”
Takuya turned his head in a lop-sided fashion to a large 20-something male as he ran up. “I?”
“Yeah! That Serizawa guy, the one who runs that pokemon vlog! My WHOLE family and almost all my co-workers tune into it, curious on your next piece of adventure!” The large man was acting like a fan of a pop-singer in their tween years.
Kris' lower jaw would have come unhinged and hit the floor if it physics would allow it. This random 'average joe', who looked to work in some sort of construction considering the yellow hard-hat on his head and the numerous tools strapped around his suspenders, had just leaked vital information to her
“Thanks, I guess. Glad you enjoy what I put out there.” The teen felt really awkward now. He never expected to be greeted in public by a follower. Let alone someone who seemed THIS excited about his travels thus far.
“Can we battle!? I'd love to show up on your vlog!”
Takuya looked at his four pokemon, all perfectly ready for a battle. They all looked a lot more ready to battle then he felt after the ridiculous quick-hike he had made.
“Why the hell not. I can sleep when I'm dead.” The teen chuckled. “Let me get my camera.” He reached around toward the side-compartment of his pack, pulling the video camera out once more. “What's the bet?”
“Bet?” The fan laughed. “I don't battle for bets, only recreationaly. I hope you understand that, but I can't afford to lose what paycheck I do get on someone else bringing over-powered pokemon.”
Hand ran through the male's black hair, and he sighed. “I'll make an exception, for a fan. This won't be common service.”
The large man took a step back, giving the camera a thumbs up before reaching into his jacket and pulling out two pokeballs. “Better get ready then! We're doing a two-on-two battle in this case!”
“Heh. I'm always ready for something new. Eon, Ninko, you two are up!” While his two females leapt at the chance to battle, the two electric types put a distance between themselves and the soon-to-be battlefield that was out-front of the Pokecenter. Jupiter walked under the eaves of the center, laying down as he tried to get some reprieve from the humidity and the blazing sunlight. Perkunas took a similar spot next to the fellow electric type, only to earn a snarl from the Eevelution as the Joleon affirmed his position in that section of the shade, forcing the Pikachu to move on.
Kris walked under the eaves of the center, sitting down in one of the chairs they had outside, trying to process what was going on. The Kanto kid she had pretty much blown off earlier, was actually an internet star? Not just that, he must be pretty decently sized if he was having fans come up and approach him. Hell, he handled it professionally and friendly, this must have been happening for years. “I'll deal with his weaknesses later. This could be a HUGE boost, and put me on the map, on the road to being a Pokestar!”
“Machamp, Geodude! I choose you two!”
“Ninko, Use your Drought under this sunlight and light up the Four-armed one with Ember! Eon, blind the Geodude with a sand attack and follow up with a quick attack!”
“Machamp, Low-Kick Karate-Chop combination! Geodude, Curl up and defend against it, try to keep your eyes shielded!”
With a technique similar to what had occurred the day before, the lighting in the center of Lavender Town became extremely bright, encouraging people indoors and out to step outside as they observed the situation. The shiny Vulpix took her weather advantage and ran with it, spitting fire at her opponent in an effort to weaken him. It made contact, but as the flames began to coat the four-armed fighter, it leaped out, kicking the fire-type under the jaw. As she was knocked into the air, he spun around, swinging his 'extra' set of arms around and chopping at her with the side of his hands, sending her flying through the air and rolling across the ground shortly afterwards. She slowly stood back up, growling in frustration.
Eon's sand attack was successful also, blinding the floating ground/rock type. As the Geodude began to rush forward, throwing punches in a fit of rage, the Eevee leaped into the air, slamming into the flying pokemon several times before forcing him to drop onto the ground, slightly disoriented.
“Geodude, it's set you up for a perfect Rock throw! Hit her hard and fast with a Seismic Toss Machamp!”
“Eon, DODGE and quick attack! Ninko, Circle around and Ember it ag-Ooh!” Takuya cringed as the golden kitsune was tossed across the makeshift battlefield, slamming into the ground with a sickening thud and a rising cloud of subsequent dust. The male lowered the camera from his eye level a bit, looking straight at the location where his fire-type came to a stop. “Ninko, are you alright? Ninko!? NINKO!” He began to take off toward the dispersing dust, only to stop about half-way there. The golden vulpix stood there, it's tails spinning around and chest heaving. “Thank Christ.” Her chest heaved outward, and blew another stream of flame at her opponent. This was was considerably more effective, sending the fighting type into a fit as it tired to escape the fires. “Tail Whip, quickly!” At this point, he remembered the camera, re-focusing it to center on the battle in the 'background' between his Eevee and the Geodude.
Eon somersaulted to the side of the rock type pokemon, who reached into the quickly-forming pit and chucked another large stone at the normal-type. It flew over her head as she slid on her stomach toward the opponent, just within striking range. Before the Geodude could attempt to block, or even harden according to the commands of it's master, he was set on by the brown-and-white furred creature, who relentlessly slammed her body into him multiple times. It didn't take long for the Geodude to stop putting up a fight, taken out by the series of quick attacks and it's earlier crash onto the ground.
Kris shifted her attention from the ending skirmish between the Eevee and the Geodude back to the conclusion of the other half of the battle. Takuya's prized shiny jumped roughly chest-high to it's opponent, and spun rapidly in the air, it's 6 tails all banging on the exterior of the Fighting-type. The muscular pokemon stumbled back, falling to it's knees in pain. The teal-haired female then looked at the fellow teenager she had 'befriended', his chest heaving while he salivated at the corners of his mouth, putting all other concerns and cares aside in favor of the battle at hand. Her attention was dragged away as Perkunas leapt up onto her lap, watching the battle from a separate vantage point. “Is he always this intense in a battle?”
“Pika...”
“There's no need to go any further!” The man shouted. “You got it in the bag! Lay off of Machamp!”
“If you say so, but you had the upper hand in that half of the battle almost the whole time!” Takuya shouted back across the battlefield. “Ninko, stand down!” The golden fox-like pokemon stopped, looking at it's trainer. The machamp collapsed shortly afterwords, forcing the trainer to recall his two fighters. “Great job girls! It was a well-earned victory!”
The normal and fire types ran toward their trainer, both leaping onto him and knocking him onto his back with the sheer force. “Thanks, thanks. But remember this was a team effort.”
Kris stood up suddenly, having trouble believing what she saw transpiring in front of her, which sent Perkunas sliding off of her lap and onto the floor. While still atop of trainer, the Eevee looked to be swelling with a white light. “It's evolving!” Sure enough, even without the use of any evolutionary stone, the Eevee was advancing to it's next stage. The light became bright enough that Takuya again had to shield his eyes for a second before looking back at his other 'starter'.
“Oh wow...”
Perfectly fitting in with the purple hues that covered the houses and buildings within Lavender Town, aside from the Pokemon Tower itself, Eon's short purple fur matched it's type perfectly. “Espy...”
“That's an Espeon!” The defeated man shouted, sounding more surprised then anything else.
Ninko stepped off of Takuya's arm, moving to the side and staring at it's rival. The new Eeveelution looked back at it, and stared harshly with it's dark blue eyes, the orb on it's forehead glowing as a warning. This motivated the shiny to give more ground then it has already acquiesced. After forcing the fire-type to move some distance away, the newly evolved Espeon began rubbing it's head and neck against it's trainer, likely to signify it's happiness. “I guess that question has been answered.” Takuya finally remarked as his new psychic type continued to expression her affection.
Without further warning, her head raised up, as she looked right down onto her trainer. “What?”
Thank you, for letting nature take it's course.
“Eon! You...you can talk...” Right afterwords Takuya would have slapped himself under more normal circumstances. Psychic types were known for communicating with humans and other pokemon. His shock came more from the sudden inclusion of a female voice in his head, one that was soft and soothing to 'hear' while having some form of strength behind it. “Your welcome...?”
“What's going on over there?” The burly man asked, adjusting his hard-hat.
“I think it's communicating.” Kris spoke up as she walked closer to the scene. “Most psychic types try to establish mental contact as quickly as they can with trainers that they trust.”
“And who might you be?”
“I'm Kris. He's probably not introduced me online yet, but I'm his new girlfriend.” The teal-haired female shook the larger man's hand in respectful greetings.
“Ah. My name is Jim, but most people call me Jimbo. He sure landed a beaut in you then, hasn't he?”
I'm glad I was able to come to this form, so I can communicate with you.
“Yes...it's just going to be difficult for me to learn to have another voice in my head...”
I won't always be in your head, Takuya Serizawa. We'll talk later. This is all brand new to me, and it's making me feel very...tired.
Takuya looked over to the other side, where his camera had been knocked out of his hand again. Eon finally got off of him, walking over to his side like nothing had transpired. The male shook his head a bit, trying to fully process what just occurred. “Takuya, are you still with us?”
He took a few seconds to respond while sitting up and grabbing his camera, pressing the necessary buttons to get it to stop recording. “I'm still here. Just...that was unexpected.” Kris and Jim lend their hands to pull him up to his feet. “Ok, next time, I need to not let my Pokemon floor me while I'm still wearing my pack. It doesn’t do good things for your back...”
“Don't worry. A good night's rest with your woman, and it will all be fine!” Jim slammed his hand against Takuya's back with a considerable amount of force, letting a sharp 'crack' out of the vertebrae and a gasp from the teen. “Well, I've got to get back to working on the tower. That radio-station is going to start broadcasting within the week and I don't want their to be any loose wires or unmarked graves left in that thing. Farewell Takuya, and give your lady a kiss for me!”
Takuya, Kris, and Eon watched the man as he began to head in the direction of the large tower within the city. “My lady? What the heck is he talking about?”
“I don't care. Let's go in and reserve a room for the night.”
Takuya looked at her with a raised eyebrow. “I thought you would be leaving.”
“Why?”
“Didn't we agree that we'd head our separate ways after we got to Lavender Town? You were going to show me about that poke-transfer thing so I can drop off the excess pokemon, and that was it.”
Kris bit her lip. If she was going to have any chance at getting famous, she needed to jump onto this kid's coat-tails, NOW! “I enjoyed your company.”
“Really?”
“Really.”
The male smiled a bit. “That's...great to hear! I enjoyed having someone to talk to also! Does this mean we'll be traveling together a little longer?”
“Oh yeah.” Kris remarked as she walked into the Pokecenter again. “We are going to be traveling together ALOT longer then I originally planned.”
- - - - -
“It's a strange experience, having a psychic type converse with you inside your head. Imagine having someone else's voice just resound within your mind like how a portion of a song loops within your mind. The sensation is kind of like that, only not annoying or endless.” Takuya sighed as he looked at the camera, leaning back in the chair. “That's all for today's rundown, from Cerulean to Lavender Town. Next stop I'll make will probably be Saffron city. I would have already been there, but the path from Cerulean to Saffron was closed.” The male leaned over the distance and ended the recording session by hitting 'cancel' on the computer, the pre-installed webcam ending there. After several other assorted edits, he leaned back in the chair, watching as the 'saving' bar slowly morphed into a blue 'saved' bar.
He spun the chair around, looking at the room again. Kris spent a lot more money then he ever would have bothered when it comes to getting a room. Even after offering to spend the money for her, she insisted on getting an expensive room with two different beds and a bathroom. “I'm not complaining though.”
Is something bothering you?
Takuya jumped a bit from the mentally announced presence of his Espeon. She sat on his bed, staring at him with her deep dark blue eyes. “No. I was just pondering what Kris' intentions are. She seemed to just turn a corner all by herself.”
Like how she suddenly wants you beside her even thought she ditched you earlier this morning and seemed to not really care overall about you otherwise?
“Something like that. I don't know. It just sort of itches at me.” Takuya scratched his head. “At least I can get this bloody bandage and the stitches off tomorrow.”
Is it painful?
“Not really. Just annoying.”
You don't have to verbally talk to converse with me. Think about what you want to say, and I can respond quicker.
Takuya looked at the Espeon with a bit of confusion. He was just about to remark something along the lines of 'Is it difficult to adjust to your new abilities?' when she answered so suddenly if made him studder in shock.
It's difficult. There is now so many new stimuli, I don't know what to do with it. I can feel the atmosphere as it is changing, I can feel your heartbeat and the heartbeat of the female over there. She turned her head slightly to the side and looked at the female, who was sprawled out like a star underneath a pair of blankets despite the warm night. Thought right now she is sleeping, so her thoughts are much more muddled and chaotic then they were earlier. I can even read Jupiter and Perkunas' thoughts.
Takuya looked at the fire fox that was curled up in one of the corners. His next question easily sprung to mind. What about Ninko?
It's weird. I can't feel anything from her. As if she would expect people to be looking into her mind.
I have a question. Why do you want me to think about my responses and not talk?
The psychic type tilted her head, it's face still borderline expressionless and eyes still staring wide open. It's much faster now. Furthermore, we don't think in words. Our thoughts are compromised of images, sounds, and feelings, so this is more raw. I can see every image and feel every feeling you have as it comes into existence within your mind. You're not exactly 'hearing' me either.
I'm not? Takuya stopped leaning back in his chair, sitting straight up to look at Eon.
No. I'm expressing my feelings and thoughts to you in the terms of sounds so it feels like a conversation. It's faster this way. I can focus on your mind and you can focus on what I send to you.
The male stood up, taking off his shirt and heading toward the bed. It's going to be weird not having you on my neck, but rather, inside of my head.
You'll get used to it...I think. I'm not even sure if I'm used to it. I doubt we could do this in battle, I'd have to split my focus between my techniques and the thoughts in your mind.
I understand that. Can I ask you a question, before I do finally sleep? I desperately need sleep, hiking through that rock cave is not easy.
Why not?
Why? Why did you choose to bond with a human, even as a young Eevee, knowing that we are a vicious species with members that would hurt you without a second thought. Why train under the member of a species that is divided amongst itself?
The Espeon moved aside as Takuya collapsed, face first, onto the bed, his breathing muffled by the pillows. I can't speak for other pokemon or other people. But you took time aside from yourself, and from Jupiter, who was at his weakest, to care for me. And it wasn't a duty to you. Even back then, you treated me like an equal...a young equal, but as someone that could actually think.
“That kind of explains it.” Takuya said aloud, his voice muffled in the pillows. “Goodnight Eon. Knowing your new nature, we'll be up at the crack-of-dawn if I can help it.”
Thanks. I do look forward to what the morning sun will bring to me now, rather then just the logging of another new day. She stood up, nuzzling her faze into the back of Takuya's head, before turning and curling up next to him. She laid with her back against his right side, her two-tipped tails draped over his legs while she formed a 'C' shape with the rest of her body, trying to get some sleep to rest her busy mind.
