Akito and the Spell of the Unknown

chapter 4

At the Ketchum house, Delia sighed as she was tending to her garden, but she smiled once she saw her kids coming with their friends. She gave hugs to Ash and Emi. "I'm so glad to see you two again..."

"It's okay, Mom, it won't be like when Akito and I were the Chosen Two." Ash promised.

"Yeah, we promise." Akito said.

Delia smiled still. "It's so nice to see the 'Famous Fudos' again."

"Famous Fudos?" Akito and Estelle asked.

"Well, mostly you, Akito, Emi talks about you almost all of the time." Delia replied.

"Mom!" Emi cried out, blushing suddenly.

This also caused for Akito to blush.

"Ooh, maybe they should go on a date." Estelle said teasingly.

"Estelle!" Akito cried out while blushing.

Estelle and Vincent hid teasing chuckles.

"Aw, come on, ya guys..." Ash said to his sister and friend.

Akito and Emi groaned a little as they blushed, but looked to each other in the eyes sheepishly.

"What's wrong with Papa and Emi?" Larvitar asked Pikachu, confused about what was going on. "Their faces are all red, are they sick?"

Emi and Akito sighed slightly from their interfering Pokemon.

"They're fine." Estelle came between the Pokemon.

"Now, now, you three must be starving after such a long way over here." Delia said to her guests.

"We sure are." Vincent said.

"Yeah." Estelle said with a smile.

"Come on in then," Delia smiled, she then stood up from her garden after putting it to bed. "Our house is your house."

Akito, Estelle, and Vincent smiled, following the Ketchum family inside of their house. Lavitar, Vulpix, and Pikachu then followed in after.

When they all came in, they saw a Mr. Mime sweeping the floor.

"Cool!" the Fudo twins cheered. "A Mr. Mime!"

Mr. Mime looked up as its name was called and came to take their coats for them.

"Oh, thank you." Vincent said, accepting Mr. Mime's request taking their coats.

"This is our Mr. Mime, Mimey." Delia said with a smile.

"Thank you, Mimey, sir." Estelle giggled, handing the mime Pokemon her coat.

"You're welcome, Miss." Mimey said.

Akito gave his coat as well and looked around, then sniffed the air and held his hands together. "Oh, man, something sure smells great!"

"Oh, thank you, we've been cooking something really special for this." Delia smiled.

"Really appreciate it, Mrs. Ketchum." Estelle smiled.

"I better go check on it right now." Delia dismissed herself into the kitchen.

Ash and Emi went to sit down and had the Fudo siblings follow them.

"Your egg hasn't hatched yet?" Emi asked.

"Not yet, but I hope it's soon..." Estelle sighed, a little impatient.

"So, how many relatives do you have?" Akito asked Ash, Emi, and their parents.

"Well, you know us, and of course Mom and Dad..." Ash listed.

"We also have a grandpa on Dad's side." Emi added.
