*CURRENTLY BEING REWRITTEN* Draconic Fire (Pokemon Sun & Moon Kiawe/Kaki)

Chapter 10

Amethyst sighed after taking another bite of toast. She needed to restock on potions and other things, as well as berries and herbs. She also needed to take in Dartrix and Charjabug to get checked on by Nurse Joy. She couldn't risk Corviknight, so she settled for having Braviary out and about. She stepped outside, Charjabug and Dartrix following her outside. She let out a shrill whistle that caught the attention of the group who were not far past from her house. Braviary landed not far from her, and she grabbed Charjabug, double checking that Dartrix was alright to fly before taking off towards Paniola Town.

"What is she doing?" Hop asked Kiawe. "She is probably taking Dartrix and Charjabug to Nurse Joy. She helped get them away from an abusive trainer and has been caring for them since." Braviary flew above them speedily, Dartrix following close behind. "It seems like Dartrix is doing a lot better. She assisted Nurse Joy for a total of 3 hours with Dartrix and Charjabug. She slept the entire rest of the day, although I'm not very surprised." Kiawe put his hands in his pockets as he walked. "She really cares about Pokemon doesn't she?" Victor said quietly, to which Kiawe nodded. "She really does. She is very caring in general. Between allowing the Farm Pokemon to graze on her land, healing pokemon that get injured, and she even helped out the construction workers when they were building her studio. She cares about people and pokemon a lot, she is just really shy."

Amethyst smiled as she landed in Paniola town. Dartrix crooned loudly as it landed, a happy expression on his face. Nurse Joy's eyes lit up the moment she saw Dartrix and Charjabug. Dartrix happily waddled over to the head of the pokemon center, who scratched the top of his head. "How have they been? Their wounds all healed?" Amethyst nods. "Yeah, I just wanted to make sure everything was healed correctly." She smiled. "Alright, let's go on back."

Nurse Joy started with Charjabug, running her hands across her back, feeling where the burns and marks were. Charjabug gave happy cries, small crackles of electricity flying between her horns. Nurse Joy laughed slightly. "Well, it seems you are feeling a lot better." "Charja!" Nurse Joy turned to me, Chansey speaking with Charjabug Idly. "It seems like Charjabug is feeling better." Amethyst smiled, watching Charjabug crackle happily. Dartrix jumped up onto the examination table, cooing sweetly. Nurse Joy felt down his wings, then down his body, feeling for any of the broken bones, cuts, or burns that might have not healed. After finishing her examination, Nurse Joy cheerfully announced that both pokemon were fully healed. They make their way to the lobby, Nurse Joy chatting sweetly as Amethyst helps Chansey sterilize the counters. "I would like to come in here and help more often Nurse Joy, if that is acceptable." Nurse Joy smiled brightly. "I would appreciate that! I cannot seem to get the burn slave perfect the way you do, and it would be good to have some extra hands. Give me just a moment to register you as a worker." She taps at her computer idly. "Now I'll have to register as your full name, but I understand your story. Your name will not leave this Pokemon Center." Amethyst smiled at Nurse Joy. "Thank you Nurse Joy. I'll go check up on your stock of Herbs, and I'll be sure to start growing some." Amethyst released Comfey, who cheered happily, following Amethyst to the back room. Comfey aided Amethyst in checking to see if the varying hers were good to use.

A commotion at the front and the calling of her alias had her and Comfey rushing out of the back room and to the front. Victor was aiding a boy who was struggling to assist Primarina to the back room. Primarina was in a bad state, covered in burns, scratches, and badly poisoned. Amethyst released Gardevoir, who assisted using psychic. Amethyst turned to the younger trainer, who was crying. She placed a hand on her shoulder. "Hey, everything will be alright. Primarina will be alright, and you did amazing on getting her here."

Victor observed the woman reassuring the boy sweetly. He recognized her. Her eyes gleamed a familiar color, and her smile gave him a sense of nostalgia. She gave off a familiar sisterly vibe, and had a welcoming presence. But that wasn't what caught his eyes. It wasn't her features, or her friendly vibe. It was the black band sitting on her right wrist, a red X prominent on it. It was the pair of shorts that had the Galarian Gym Pattern on it. He observed her quietly, not recalling someone like her ever in the Gym Challenge. She stood as the name 'Crystal' was called, and she rushed off.

Victor knew something was off about her, but he couldn't place his finger on it. He didn't care what it took, he was going to figure out who she was, and why she had a dynamax band. Most importantly, he was going to find out why her shorts had the same number as his missing best friend's.
