Pokemon: The Misadventures in Unova

Chapter 19

《A carefree soul》

Right after the battle concluded, between Sigilyph and the Yamask, Frost was having a bit of a struggle trying to stand, but with his struggle and Kirlia helping him, he got on his feet.

Imideatly after the battle was over he noticed who the voice came from.

- "Thanks, Kirlia. . You did great now." (Frost)

- "Your welcome, master. It is my pleasure." (Kirlia)

- "Heh. . Telepathy." (Frost)

It was a difficult battle, Ralts evolving really turn the tides, afterall. . That Pokemon was strategic enough to even stop the trainer itself, stay from a far away location and didn't cower when losing, it was used to battling–

That.. can only be one of two conclusions.

Kirlia, knew imidieatly why that was, since she, being a psychic type herself could sense something was coming.

After all, a disturbance was ahead, on the very exit, and it was coming over to their current direction. . Slowly, step by step.

Until everyone noticed it, after all, in the quiet victorious atmosphere the only sound that reverbeated throughout the are was simple yet carefree steps. .

'S t e p, s t e p, s t e p-' and stops.

- "Ara. . ? Sigilyph is asleep ? Then. . Who was. . I following ? " (???)

A female voice resounded the area, describing the voice.. it had this, weird feeling, it traveled everywhere, but nowhere at the same time, it spoke 'outside' yet inside our minds.

For Frost, it was a familiar type of feeling, afterall.. Kirlia is a being, super intelligent and to top it off can speak with telepathy, only to those who are their trainers, and it happens to be Frost.

But. . A pokemon that can talk with multiple people, let alone talk without telepathy. . ? In human tongue no less. .

- "Ah. . I got a bit surprised and leaked some of my power out. . My apologies trainers, but. . Who was it that defeated 'my' Sigilyph. ?" (???)

The female voice this time, was only normally spoken, no trace of telepathy. . . The first half was apologetic, but the latter turned into a more serious one.

So of course, Roxie, Drapien, Professor Birch and Kirlia were at guard with the unknown entity that was slowly making it's way here. . Their shadow faint yet visible from afar, looked like some type of Tentacruel or the Reuniclus. . But oddly worse.

In any case—

- "Well, I guess I'll take the blame. I did it. . . I'm sorry ?" (Frost)

The steps that now echoed stopped.

- "Hou. . ? A trainer with some 'energy'. . No, just a pokemon. Are you the one that beat my Sigilyph ? You must be a Challenger then. . I wonder how strong you must be. . Care for a Pokemon battle~ ?" (???)

The figure emerged from the darkness, a woman. . As if Rapunzel existed, but backwards. Blonde streaks of hair, familiar yet distinct.. a tight dress, with a see through cape with a lighter pink tone.
Her hair could possibly reach the ground, if it wasn't for the fact that it was mysteriously floating. Just barely above the ground-

As the figure grew closer, Roxie and the Professor gasped in amazement, looked over at Frost and the mysterious woman just stared him down, with a polite smile even, her whole figure reeked Princess aura.

Meanwhile, Frost was just the same old. . Non-chalant and to top it off, his head tilted towards the side, even Kirlia did so too.

- "Umm. . No ? I'm good on battles for one week, no, better yet make it a month. . Anyways, who are you ?" (Frost)

Silence filled the room. . All eyes ended up at Frost, Roxie, Professor Birch, the mysterious Lady and even Kirlia.

With Kirlia as an exeption, since she doesn't know this person, Roxie and Professor Birch were baffled, they can't believe what they're seeing, hearing and especially what Frost is saying. . Does he not know. . Who 'that' woman is ?!

- "Frost ?! You... You don't know wo she is ? " (Roxie)

Roxie exclaimed, her tone carrying disbelief and some panic, how does one trainer not know who.. an important person like her is ?

- "I-I don't. . ? Is that bad ? No name rings a bell, she looks like a spoiled brat. . Was she in a Drama ?" (Frost)

- "Dra.. You know I don't watch Dramas ! Dad just forced me to– Why is it that you don't know a Member of the 'Elite Four' ?!" (Roxie)

- "Oh I'm sorry, am I supposed to keep up with trends ?! The only member I know is my little sister. . Wait 'Elite Four' ?!" (Frost)

After letting out a curious detail, it suddenly hit him, he stopped and glanced back at the girl. An. . Elite four ? Here ?

- "You're... an elite four.. ? " (Frost)

He asked, his tone as confused as him.

The lady, who waited politely for their bickering to come to a halt just waited, and with closed eyes and a smile who. . Twitched now and again just nodded. . What a surprise, a person that "didn't" know her.

- "Wh-Why yes, In fact~ you seem to be unknown of my identity somehow, as to why I'll clear it up~ As your little 'girlfriend' stated, I am a member of the elite four~ Caitlin. "
(Caitlin)

With the best U-turn move, as if she's used to recovering from her surprisement, she presented herself with, how many would say, a beautiful and impresive ladylike/princesslike charm, who'd get the fame for males and females alike no matter the age. . That is, for Pokemon Trainers. . Everybody is a battle junkie nowadays, not Frost at least.

- "Okay.. ? She's not my 'girlfriend' but a pleasure meeting ya, I'm Professor Juniper's Assistant Frost. One thing I know about you though, your Sigilyph is, in simple terms, a pain in the a– " (Frost)

Before he could finish that unfortunately great word, Roxie just comically came out of nowhere to give Frost the punch he needs to calm down his senses.

- "Wh-What are you saying to Miss Caitlin ?! You idiot !" (Roxie)

- "I'm stating the truth ! . Ow. And it should be a compliment. . Ah, it hurts. ." (Frost)

- ". . Master ! Are you alright ?" (Kirlia)

The pokemon, worried for it's Trainer asked, and glanced between Roxie and Frost's bickering, on their own little world.

Meanwhile. . . They forgot two unlookers. Leaving them in the dust. .

- "They must be good friends~" (Caitlin)

- "Haah.. I'm sure they are." (Prof. Birch)
