A Pokemon Performer (a pokemon black & white fanfic)

Chapter 6: Getting to know...me?

We arrived at the pokemon center in the evening and met Nurse Joy with her Audino. We left our pokemon to be revitalized as we went into a room with a bunk bed and normal bed on opposite walls.

"I call top bunk!" shouted Iris.

"Then I guess I call-" started Ash.

"I call bottom bunk!" I shouted before him. I sat on the bottom and saw him sulk on the normal bed. "Don't worry, Ash." I said. "There will always be next time."

"Yeah, Ash," added Iris, climbing to the top. "There's always next time if you don't get beat by two girls." she and I giggled.

"Ha Ha, very funny." he said. We sat in silence for more than an hour, probably and I begin to wonder why Team Rocket wanted Gina and Pikachu and how they and Ash knew each other.

"Hey, Ash," I said, putting my legs up.

"Yeah," he said.

"Why does Team Rocket want Gina and Pikachu?" I asked.

"Because they think my Pikachu is special and rare. And I think they never seen a pokemon like Gina before, so they probably wanted to capture her too." he said.

"How do you know Team Rocket?" asked Iris. Thank you, Iris for asking my question, I thought sarcastically.

"When Pikachu and I were in the pokemon center back home, they tried to steal rare pokemon for it. So after they realized that he was special when he exploded the pokemon center with his thunder bolt, they began following me from the beginning, trying to capture him." he explained.

"Wow," the two of us said in unison.

"Now its my turn to ask you a question. " he said.

"Wait, we're taking turns by asking questions?" I asked. He glared at me and it kind of made me uncomfortable. I decided to call it his 'making me uncomfortable' glare.

"Proceed with your question." I said, calmly, even though part of me was hoping that he wouldn't ask about my personal life.

"Can you tell me about yourself?" he asked. I guess I thought too soon.

"Okay. I lived with my aunt Hilda for as long as I could remember in a small town, right outside Nevema Town." I said.

"What is the small town called?" asked Iris.

"It's called Winter Town." I said. Winter town was called that because in the winter, it snows three inches half of the end year and hails on the first three months, every other week. You know how other schools have spring break on the third month, right? Well, my school gets out at the beginning of the year and starts on the fifth month. Yeah, its kind of confusing but you'll understand...someday.

"How come I've never heard of it?" she asked.

"Well, our houses are white and if you walk in it during the snow season, you can't even tell its there." I said. 

"Wow," they said.

"What about your parents?" asked Iris.

"My parents are traveling in Hoenn. My mom is working to be a top coordinator and my dad," I paused.

"Your dad what?" asked Ash, coming to sit next to me.

"My dad is working to be the pokemon master?" I answered.

"What do you mean the?" he asked. Before I could answer him, Nurse Joy called that my pokemon were ready. Thank goodness. 

I got up to go get them but Iris asked, "Where are you going?"

"I'm going to get my pokemon and then call my parents." I left the room and went up to the front desk to get Gina and Anna. Anna was in her pokeball and Gina jumped onto my shoulder as I thanked Nurse Joy. I took a glance at the video phone in the corner of the lobby. I then looked at Gina.

"Wanna meet my parents, Gina?" I asked.

You bet, she said. I grinned as I walked to the phone and called the first pokemon center that was listed under the Hoenn region. And to my surprise, the screen flickered and I saw my dad.
