Pokemon Revival (Discontinued)

Chapter 15: The All Seeing Beauty

I took a look around at the cherry blossoms. They came out of nowhere, the were glowing pink and almost looked like glass. I had seen cherry blossom trees where I lived, and when the petals fall they were beautiful. Heck there was even a festival where I came from called the cherry blossom festival. It was like a carnival really, I had gone there a couple of times with my parents. I let my guard down to take a look around. They were pretty and reminded me of my family, but it also made me depressed, I would never get one of those moments again with my family. Griffon must have noticed me deep in thought cause she just stood there, she actually looked concerned for me. These blossoms reminded me of my family and I needed the moment, it was worth it. I then looked at her with a serious look that said "I am ready!"

All of the sudden I felt something fly past my left ear and dig into the dirt in front of me. When I looked down I saw one of the cherry blossoms, I noticed that it was razor-sharp and that it almost hit me, then I realized I got surrounded by them. Talk about a false sense of security.

Just then more were flying toward me. I was quick, I started using the guards on my arms to block them. They kept coming and I just kept guarding. During this Griffon just stood there without a care in the world. I saw her like that but I had to focus, one false move I would end up looking like a blue hedgehog. As I was guarding some of them had scraped by and left the same burn marks that Gareth had made, this hurt, and it hurt bad! I kept focusing though, just kept on blocking and guarding every one I saw. Then I noticed that there weren't as many so there was an opening on her. I started running up to try to hit her. During this she just stood there without a care in the world. I then jumped and threw the punch.

*GONG!*

As I tried to swing my arm hit something like a wall. I had hit a reflect-shield. It felt like slow motion, I had started to fall but the wall started glowing with Griffon behind it just smiling. Then the wall glowed brighter and sent a shockwave at me. It sent me to the ground rolling. Thankfully she gave me the courtesy to let me get up before trying to hit me with another blossom. I had to think what could I do here, wait! I had grabbed Gareth's blade so could I grab her blossoms. So I did it and was able to grab a couple of them. I then threw it at her like a throwing knife and I saw the shield come up. Now is my chance. I quickly ran as fast as I could around her and jumped for a hit.

*GONG!*

I hit another shield but she seemed surprised, she didn't have time to use the shockwave so I jumped away as quickly as possible. She seemed to have shields all around her, or did she? I didn't know if she had shields up or if the shields came up as a reaction. I needed to know, if it is a reflex, could I outrun it? I then got into a running-position and she seemed to get ready for something. Then I started running, I was right behind her and sent a punch. She turned around and right before she could send the shockwave I was behind her again. I landed a kick on it and she turned around again. I then hit the right side of her shield and kept running around and hitting each side. She couldn't keep up with me and her cherry blossoms couldn't hit me either, I was too fast.

(Lucario POV)

"HOLY CRAP LUCARIO!, HOW DID YOU GET HIM TO BE THAT FAST!" Martin exclaimed. Really should have paid more attention Martin. I saw the same faces of shock on everyone else.

-Why didn't he use that speed on me and Gareth?- Asked Flynt.
