We always win the fight

Chapter 3 : Introductions

Hilbert groaned, hitting his side table forcefully, nearly making the lamp on top topple over. His leg still stung with pain, causing him to let out a whimper. He cursed under his breath and tried to sit up, but failed, letting his head fall back on the pillow

I suppose I should be grateful,  He thought, If it weren't for that Pokemon it would've had to come off.

The door to the room slowly opened, causing Hilbert to nearly jump in the air. He had been extra jumpy as of late, and was still spooked by everything, even if it sent shooting pain in his leg. He calmed himself and turned his attention to the boy who had just entered the room. The boy was wearing a costume that only told him he was champion. He suppressed a laugh (hopefully it wasn't noticed) and sat up a bit straighter. The other boy sat down on a chair next to him. 

"You must be the new champion, right?" He asked, then added "I can tell by the outfit." He smirked. The boy blushed and shook his head.

'Er, yeah, aha. I'm Nate." The boy said nervously. "Sorry im acting like this, it's just I thought you were really cool when I was younger.."

"Heh, thanks. I suppose I was" Hilbert replied. "Want my autograph?" He chuckled a little, and when he looked back at the boy, his face was bright red, causing him to laugh even more. "Is that a yes?"

"Maybe another time. Er, the officials and stuff wanted me to ask you about where you've been." Nate had gathered himself. "So, where have you been?" 

"Well, I'm not sure I can quite remember.." Hilbert lied. Nate could obviously see through it. He leaned forward like an excited little kid. 

"I'm sure it'll come to you." He smiled sweetly. Hilbert pouted and sighed.

"Fine. Well, I've been traveling regions looking for somebody..." Hilbert sighed. "Never did find him." 

"Huh.." 

"Anyway, after about a year, it sorta turned into just touring the world after a while. Have you ever been to Kalos? It's amazing, they have the best-"

"Ok, you don't have to go into detail, you gotta rest." Nate smiled. "Although, how did you hurt yourself and get here?"

"Well that's a bit of a long story.." 

Nate swung his chair around backwards, putting his arms up on it's back and resting his head in his hands. "I've got time."

Hilbert sighed and hung his hands over the side of the bed. "You are persistent, I'll give you that." He positioned his leg to show the large scar.

Notes: 

Sorry this took so long! I was on vacation so I wasn't able to write for a long time. I was going to make this longer but decided to just put it up as-is and continue in the next chapter. School is starting for me so chapters wont come out very quickly, but I'll try my best to be quicker! 

Edit: Grammar errors fixed.

Edit: Republish because it glitched out and I wanna try and fix it lol
