CHAPTER 11: Everything for love

CHAPTER 11: Everything for love

Oshawott entered quickly to the Arbor Area. He entered to the Windmill Way. There were some Pokémon that were searching desperately for princess Snivy, shouting her name everywhere. He had to reach where the crime scene was. He ran through the route until reaching the windmill, but he stopped because the Bisharp Patrol was walking around the place looking for some clues. The otter had to hide behind the windmill. He forgot that, if he was seen by the royal guards, they would kick him out of the Arbor Area without thinking twice. The prohibition of entering was still in force.

What could he do to not to be caught? He looked for some solution for that. It was strange that the other Pokémon that lived in the area wasn't interested in Oshawott, it was as if they didn't know about the prohibition he had; only the guards and the queen knew it, but the others don't, at least he had that in his advantage. Bisharp and the Pawniard, together with other Pokémon, were patrolling near the windmill. Oshawott tried to look for some alternative so as not to be seen and reach Snivy's house. He thought in what to do to avoid the guards. He saw around him searching for something useful. There just were thickets and pebbles. With just seeing the small stones, he had an idea. He took it with a paw and with a lot of force he threw it to the river. The noise of the pebble falling to the water made the commander Bisharp and his subordinates move to the zone where the sound was emitted.

It was his opportunity to go out without being seen by them. The water type ran to the other side of the windmill and continued his path, crossing the bridge and trying to reach the Verdant Court. But he didn't notice that a Pawniard looked to the other side and saw the Sea Otter Pokémon run to where Queen Serperior was, he told the others and all of them went after the otter.

Oshawott finally reached the Verdant Court, now it remained to reach Snivy's house, he knew the path that the servants and royalty knew. The problem was what to do when he was close to Queen Serperior. What is he going to tell her when she saw him in the Arbor Area? The otter had to think on good arguments if she wanted to accept him. Just then, he heard some footsteps that came from behind. He heard someone say:

"There he is! Get him!"

It was the Bisharp patrol that came quickly towards Oshawott. After seeing them coming closer, he ran away from there as fast as possible. The water type ran quickly so as to be caught by them. He went through the passage where the queen and princess' houses. He hoped that Queen Serperior was there to tell her what he wanted since the beginning. As he came closer, he heard the queen said as she cried:

"Aaaaahhhh! Why?! Why are you doing this to me?! My daughter! Where is my daughter?!"

"Queen Serperior! Queen Serperior!"

The Regal Pokémon stopped lamenting for a moment to see who the one that was calling. Surprisingly, it was Oshawott. What was that Pokémon doing there? Wasn't he prohibited to enter the Arbor Area to not come closer to her daughter?

"Oshawott?"

"Queen Serperior... *pant* *pant*" The Sea Otter Pokémon arrived where she was and tried to breathe normally.

"Oshawott, what are you doing here? You should not enter the Arbor Area."

"I know... *pant* I came here to..."

"Hold it right there! We have surrounded you!"

It was the Bisharp patrol that followed him where the queen and the princess of the Arbor Area lived. The Sword Blade Pokémon said harshly:

"You don't learn, little rat, do you? It's strictly prohibited your entry to the Arbor Area. Now we'll give you a lesson. Pawniard, get him!"

Just then the Sharp Blade Pokémon attacked Oshawott with their knives, he got immobilized, and finally he took him by the arms to leave with him dragged.
