Twins of Unova

*Chapter 11: Sewer

My legs were slowing down the longer we walked in this sewer. Nate was following Hugh while Nate held onto my hand, pulling me and not noticing how much I was tripping. I tried keeping my balance, but I was exhausted...

"N-Nate..." I softly called out, but Hugh's loud voice repelled the sound.

"Hey!" His voice echoed, calling on two grunts facing each other.

"What do you want?" One of them asked. I tugged on Nate's arm, out of breath. I started seeing stars in my vision.

"Team Plasma! You villains!" Hugh pointed.

"Huh? Don't treat us like villains!" The grunt said "And don't interfere with our plans to liberate Pokémon!"

"Liberate? Ha! You're just ordinary Pokémon thieves!" Hugh fought back. Nate turned to me to catch me falling into his arms, starting to sob at how awful I felt "and what's more, you use those stolen Pokémon like they're tools!"

"Shaddup! Hand over your Pokémon!" The grunts got aggressive and sent out their Pokémon. Nate hesitated when handling me and wanting to help Hugh. Not wanting to be in between of what he has to do, I pulled away and fell on the floor.

"Cam!" Nate panicked. I shook my head and shakily pointed at the grunts. He hesitated again and did what I wanted him to do, double battling with Hugh and eventually won the battle against the two. They soon bailed out to the exit after their defeat.

"Tch! They run away like Patrat" Hugh smacked his lips. Nate kneeled down to me breathing heavily "Ok! Let's go further inside! There might be more in there" Hugh pointed at another entrance.

"I think we'll pass for tonight" Nate lifted me into his arms "Cam needs some rest. She's done enough today"

"You're going to help that freak instead of helping me look for more grunts?"

"Hugh, that's not nice"

"Just shut up already! I don't care what you two have. She's literally not worth it! She's slowing down the search! Other than what I want from Team Plasma, you're looking for Rosa! She doesn't even seem like she's all forward to looking for her!" I snapped my eyes open, making him flinch and take a step back as I move out of Nate's arms and walk up to Hugh pressing himself against the wall.

"Who do you think you are? You have no right to determine how important my search for my own little sister is. You shut your mouth before I shut it for you" I was about to reach for his neck before a strangers voice spoke.

"What an interesting show we have here" a familiar voice spoke. It was the guy that first told me of Rosa's disappearance.

"Could you be gym leader Burgh?" Hugh asked.

"Yessir! One and the same! I'm Burgh!" The energy I had inside me immediately went out, making my body collapsed into Nate's arms catching me quickly and brought me to the floor, half asleep. It was hard keeping my eyes open.

"Cam! Camilla!" Nate softly slapped my cheeks. I smiled and held his hand.

"I'm fine..." I brought his hand to my cheek, relaxing my body more "You're so warm..." my body shut down for the night, bringing me into a deep sleep.

I woke up the next morning fully refreshed and energized. I stretched my arms in the sky and looked around the room I was in, looking like a hotel room "Nate must've carried me here after we left the sewer" I smelled my clothes and it smelled like the sewer "I should take a shower" making sure the coast was clear, I opened the window and send out my Pokémon to stretch out her wings.

"Sorry you've been in there for awhile. I'm sure you're starving" I took out some Pokémon food and placed it on the open window "Go ahead and eat and then go out to stretch your wings. I'll be back to collect you once you're ready" my Pokémon cooed at me. I smiled and pet her head "I'm not ready to tell Nate or Looker I have you in my possession. You're the only one who tolerates me, unlike other Pokémon who hate me. I'm sure they'll understand, but for now, you need to keep secret. Eat your food and go flying for awhile" I smiled "Don't get caught. Remember, you're not native here" she nodded and started eating.
