The Rise of a Hero (A Greninja Story) (Vol.2 - Broken Bonds...)

Chapter 51 - The Teenagers' Fight! (Part 2)

Third Person's POV :

"She's gone!" Leo the Combusken was in slight shock as the Kirlia, Jenny, sneaked behind him and used Magical Leaf. At the last second, Leo dodged and attacked with Flame Charge.

Jenny then tried to deflect with Thunderbolt, but in the end, Flame Charge won the clash and the Kirlia got injured in her right arm. "Wow, you're better than I thought, Combusken..." She smirked. "But I'm afraid it ends here..."

Right after Leo blinked even once, he met with Jenny's Psychic as it managed to hit him, thankfully not in a vital spot though. "She's fast...!" Leo thought to himself, slightly panting.

He was not gonna let that slide. So the Combusken started to use Double Team and charge Embers from every direction possible. However, Jenny elegantly dodged all of them. Well, that was until Leo became behind her with a surprise Flamethrower.

"Ugh!" The Kirlia grunted as she was hit in a vital spot. "This is bad...!" She was clenching her fist as the two pre-teens' eyes met (I made a mistake in title. It's supposed to be "pre-teens'", not "teenagers").

"I admit, you're quite strong," said Leo, tilting his head down. "Stronger than most girls, but, well, your arrogance ends now..." Finishing the battle, Leo used Flame Charge and knocked out the Kirlia...!

"Jenny!" Aaron rushed to his teammate and healed her with berries. "Ugh, I'm fine, Aaron..." She sighed, still eyeing Leo for a long while.

"Whoa..." Izuko and his team was muttering in awe. "That was a pretty good battle... Wait, but Leo just hit a girl!" Trevor suddenly brought up how illegal it was for a boy hurting a girl.

"Oh yeah...! Um..." The other two, Izuko and Flame, just realized and looked at each other with slightly puzzled faces. "Well, at least the battle is over!" Flame ended the topic.

Leo's POV :

"Sassy girl..." Even after the battle ended, I still had the same thought about that Kirlia. She was... How do I say this...? She was not like any other girls, in both good and bad ways.

The bad ways... Well, you know what I mean... Rude and extremely sassy... Good ways? Well, she can defend herself because of that...? Whatever... She's still a crazy girl...

"Ok, me and Jenny are gonna leave now!" That Rockruff, Aaron, waved goodbye. "See you soon!" "Ok, bye!" Izuko and his two teammates waved back happily.

Then suddenly, Jenny rushed to me really quick and whispered, "Hey, good battle...! See you later, Combusken...!" She grinned and walked away with Aaron as if nothing happened.

Meanwhile, I don't know why, but I was slightly blushing and touched the side where she whispered to me. "Uh, Leo, are you ok?" Izuko poked my shoulder as I snapped out of my daydream.

"Oh, yeah, I'm fine..." I said, but in reality, I really don't know if I am...
