《The preparations》

Following the previous events, Meloetta wished to sing on a stage.
And Kirlia wanted to dance to her singing.

If this is what both want... then of course they needed to train, in order to succeed.

- "And that's where you two come in Eleza, Roxie. You two are talented in music and stage performance.. so I'm going to need your help. If possible. If not then, that's perfectly okay, and understandable. I'll manage by myself if needed. " (Frost)

- "So... you're asking me to make music." (Roxie)

- "And me to teach Kirlia how to perform." (Elesa)

- "Well, dance.. but that's the gist of it yeah— Will you help me ?" (Frost)

- "Well.. I don't see why not. In fact, 'been a while since I've played something. " (Roxie)

Roxie enthusiastically accepted. That's one person down.

While the other.

- "I refuse." (Elesa)

Of course. .

- "Heh. Well, I didn't expect you to accept. Worth a sho—" (Frost)

She held up a hand, to silence him.

So Frost confusedly remained silence–

- "I wasn't finished. I will accept.. if. And only if you give me yo– I-I perform with your Kirlia." (Elesa)

She corrected herself.
Somehow she felt dread auras coming from the two and one from the back.. but the Professor is behind them.. she's on her side... correct ?

- " Well.. I don't see the proble–" (Frost)

And once more. Not letting him speak he shuts him up by holding a hand.

- "Oh, that's right. You're supposed to work for me. So you're going to be our Producer." (Elesa)

- "Ah. So in the end it works out !" (Prof. Juniper)

An intrud— Err, the professor lively chimed in the conversation. All the while looking at Frost, all happy for the outcome.

What is Frost response ?

- "Well, if we're going to do this, we need to know 'when' is it going to be..." (Frost)

- "Ah, well. That's simple. We can perform at the pokemon musical. It's a perfect idea !" (Prof. Juniper)

Eberyone stopped thinking.. looked over at Juniper and briefly nodded.

This is going to take a while. . .

{Half a week passed by}

Kirlia and Elesa was practicing as usual. Roxie was composing a melody for Meloetta.

Meanwhile Frost. .

- "So.. I came here to sign up. But for 2 people and 2 pokemon." (Frost)

- "U-Uhm.. Will you be performing or will it be two other performers ?" (Receptionist)

As expected.. the service is professional.

Why did the receptionist stutter ?

Simple really, Frost looks quite ragged. Mostly because being a Producer is hard. And to top it off, he needs to have a strict schedule... not enough sleep, lots of movement, and planning..

Which gives us this ragged looking Frost.

- "Yes. Gym Leader Roxie, and Gym Leader Elesa. Pokemons will be.. ah It'll be a surprise.. this being on behalf of Nimbasa city's Gym Leader's request.." (Frost)

He can't think straight. Just getting comfortable in a nice and warm sheet, surrounded by softness and pillows.. aah.. paradise.

- "Alright then... I need your signature... Uhm, there." (Receptionist)

- "Alright, thanks mate.. Now just, hopefully you enjoy." (Frost)

With all the preparations done. He can finally move on and re–

B e e p. B e e p.

Oh for Arceus's sake..

Frost checked his Xtransceiver.. but noticed it wasn't the one making the noise...

So he picked the one owned by Yancy.. the culprit of the noise.

And he answered it.

- "Uhm ! Frost ? Is it you ?" (Yancy)

- "Yeah.. I'm here. What's up, came to pick up your Xtransceiver ?" (Frost)

- ".. Unfortunately, I'm at at work. But I do have some time to talk.. if you want to that is.." (Yancy)

- "Well, I won't mind getting things off my mind.. alright, I'll bite. What do you want to talk about ?" (Frost)

- "Well, how about eachother ? Well, with your conset of course. I don't wish to get 'too' personal but bits and pieces.. maybe.. ?" (Yancy)

Throughout that conversation—
Frost began to walk out, and eventually arrived at a bench to sit on—

- "Sure. I don't mind.. nobody here knows me to– well scratch that. Roxie knows me. It's a friend of mine here... anyways. You wanna ask first ?" (Frost)

- "Oh.. alright then— Uhm.. how about this. Which pokemon did you start with, that is still with you today ?" (Yancy)

First question is simple.

Throughout childhood.. there was a few pokemon he grew up with.. but only one who stuck by his side at all times..

- "Well.. that would be my Mimikyu.. you probably don't know what pokemon it is.. but that girl has with me.. all the way." (Frost)

- "Me-Mickey-you ? That is a weird name.. but I'm assuming it must have been a lovely pokemon. Now it is your turn to ask." (Yancy)

- "Hmm. . Let's ask you this, what kind of rides did you enjoy at Nimbasa... Last time you were here at least." (Frost)

- "Ah.. Well, I really enjoyed the indoor roller coaster. And the view on the ferris wheel was wonderful. . Ah. I think– yes my prod.. err Colleague is calling me. I must go, see you, rather, call you next time !" (Yancy)

And the call ended.. great timing. The performance was starting soon, now all Frost needs to do is to get everybody ready.

- "Well.. I'll also need a prize.." (Frost)

He proceeded to take out a rectangular shaped object, quite slim, but it had the face of a Rotom, sleeping peacefully.

. . .And pressed a few buttons. . .
