Flaming Dreams [Pokemon]

Chapter 8: "Evil Flames"

I woke up to the bright sunlight that was peeking behind the curtains. I sat up and looked around me. Wow, it was hot. Well, no wonder, in by bed there were literally two volcanos.

The weather seemed really nice. The sun was already high in the sky, sending down rays of light. Some Pidgeys chirped here and there and I could hear the small waves on the shore. Next to our window was a big shade, under it were three Mankeys. All this beauty broke a smile on my face.

I peeked over to Tylers bed, to see, if he was up, but he wasn't there. Also all of his Pokémon were missing, too.

I quickly climbed down from my bed and made my way to the window. I looked left and right, but still ho sign of him. Argh, sometimes he really makes me angry.

I returned all my Pokémon, grabbed the room key and rushed to the main door. After returning the key I stepped outside, bumping into someone. I closed my eyes, waiting for the impact with the ground, but it never came. Two hands hold on to my shoulders. I opened my eyes and the person was none other than Tyler.

"Great, Chelle, you're here!" He said fast and grabbed my hand, pulling me along. "Come, I need to show you something."

I got out of his grip, confused, and almost yelling I asked him. "What? Where? Hold on. First of all, where were you. I freaked out when you weren't in the room. Second of all, what is so important that needs to be shown to me?"

"Agh, Chelle, I really don't have time for this." Tyler said with a nervous voice. "Just come with me, Ok?" And he grabbed my hand again.

"No!" I told him strictly. "I'm not coming anywhere." I crossed my arms.

"Fine. You leave me no choice." He picked me up and ran towards and alleyway, right from the Pokémon Centre.

"Put! Me! Down!" I screamed, but he didn't listen to me. When we finally reached our destination, he dropped me, gently,  and said.

"Happy now?"

"Yes." I answered and looked at my surroundings. We were at the edge of a dead-end street. It was kinda dark, sunlight didn't get here due to the tall buildings. There were some boxes scattered around and they were all very dusty. 

"So, why did you bring me here?" I demanded him.

"Shhh, be quiet." We ducked behind some cardboard boxes and he pointed at the end of the street. There were two men and a woman, dressed in red uniforms. Next to them were cages with Pokémon inside them. Stolen Pokémon.

"What? What are they doing? Team Flare?" I gasped.

"So you know them?" Tyler questioned me.

"Kind of, well, I encountered them a few times when I was traveling in Kalos." I explained.

"Great! So, should we take them out?" He smirked and grabbed a Pokéball.

"With my pleasure!" 

I jumped over the boxes we were hiding behind an ran towards the red-suited men.

"Gosh, I ment with a plan." I heard Tyler mumble behind me, but he still followed.

"Stop it right now!" I yelled.

"Oh my, what do we have here. A little girl." The woman mocked. "What do you think you're doing?"

"Oh, well, I was taking a stroll and I decided to take this route today." I also replied mocking.

"Really? Then I'll have to disappoint you, this street is closed. Grunts, take her out!"

"Yes ma'am!" And the two guys faced me.
