Description
Kevin and Buizel (Second edition)
Chapter 8: What really happened.
As they were shaking their hands, Adam smiled, "I never expected Buizel to be so kind to me after all that has happened." Neither did I as a matter of fact, but that's what I like about Buizel, he is like me.
"I'm fairly sure Buizel understands the circumstances."
I never imagined Adam was such a great person to be around with, I wondered what had brought him around these places. "If I may ask, why are you shaking your leg so much?" I did not know what he meant until I realized my leg was moving up and down to a rhythm in my head.
"I'm thinking about music, I think my feet move all the time when thinking about melodies." I stopped moving my legs, in reality I was already crafting a song in my head about forgiveness and friendship, it was forming into a harmonic tune, "so what brings you to Sunnyshore?" I asked him curiously.
"I just wanted to see you here. I heard from the magazine cover that you were going to give a show! I can't wait." Adam was excited about the event. "I finally got around to gather up my courage to finally talk with you."
"I'm glad you finally did" I remembered my favourite show was here today! "I honestly can't wait to see the show myself! I can't wait for the greatest magic act on all Kalos to be here in Sunnyshore!"
"What kind of magic? Is it some sort of playing card tricks?" He laughed as he drank some coffee.
"The great Mathias and Braixen! Illusion, tricks and miraculous events." I explained their many illusions and tricks, many of them were of levitation, mind magic but most of all, their grand final act which was simply a miracle. "Mathias in the final act enters by himself inside a box as his Braixen leaves the scenario. He slowly descends inside the box, and then smoke comes from the inside!"
"I don't think it's safe to light yourself in fire."
"No no, it is just stage smoke that appears. Anyways, from inside of the box instead of Mathias, Braixen appears! And from behind the scenario Mathias appears! Nobody has any clue how it is done!"
"They have like secret passages maybe."
"No way! The interesting part about it is that you can stand around the box, see everything if you wish. But you see absolutely nothing! It's a true miracle!"
Adam laughed "You sure do like that magic show! But anyway, what in hell is a Braixen?"
"Braixen is a psychic fire Pokémon! Braixens have sticks that they use like magic wands and it looks pretty cool. It actually comes from the fire starter that most Kalos trainers begin with."
"Kalos sounds like an amazing place, I've heard there are many cool things you can do, and Lumiose also sounds like one of the most beautiful cities ever!" Adam was excited when talking about Kalos, I noticed him daydreaming about it even, so I had an idea.
"You got to come with me to Kalos one day! I'll invite!" I had caught Adam out in surprise, he thought about it for a bit.
"But... I dunno. I really want to start to win gym battles and get badges to go to the leagues, but my Pokémon are never around for me."
"You can start at Kalos! There are so many beautiful things in Kalos and amazing Pokémon as well!"
"But I-I don't know." I didn't know if Adam was scared or unsure.
"If we go to Kalos, I'll teach you everything I know about Pokémon bonding."
"Really? You would do that for me? Even after all I did?" Adam was surprised and honored, "I don't know if I can accept such a generous offer from you, after all I have done to you, I mean... I've treated you so bad in the past."
"It's all fine, if you want, we can go to Kalos tomorrow after the presentation I have here!" It's hard to forget things that happened in the past, but I want to mend things between us now, I feel that I need it. I'm tired of hating other people for what happened.
"In that case, we should definitely go!" Adam was excited about my offer, after my offer we talked more about ourselves. I told him about my opportunities in music in Sinnoh currently, but that it was going to end with this last grand show. He told me about his own Pokémon adventures as a trainer, he has seen and caught so many Pokémon but he explained how many of his Pokémon ended up going against him, he really didn't know how to treat Pokémon the way they should it would seem. What could he be doing wrong? I asked about aggression but that was out of the question, was there something else?
Adam in his childhood had issues with the other kids at his school, they had all been bullying him and he was never able to solve these problems, he had always wanted to be a Pokémon trainer to be accompanied, to feel protected. Unfortunately as he received his Pokémon he had felt too secure and decided to display his power and capture many Pokémon. He has captured about more than sixty Pokémon with more than fifty released due to something not working right. I learned so much about Adam not only as a person, but also as a trainer. He was a very thoughtful strategist when it came to Pokémon battles; the problem was just that he couldn't get along with his Pokémon.
I stared at the trio of thieves once more and reminded myself why I was here, I did need to speak to them and hopefully reach an agreement. It is going to be hard to convince them.
"Hey Adam, there is something I need to do right now, do you mind waiting for me?" Adam agreed, as he finished his coffee he went outside to wait right beside the door. I saw the thieves at the table arguing over something, I finally decided to approach them and immediately sit right next to them; of course the woman was not happy about it.
"No one invited you to this table, why don't you..." Jessie saw me sat down and went silent, the other two also stared back at me, I put my hands over my chin and leaned.
"I don't want trouble, but I was wondering if we could agree on a deal I have..." They were surprised, probably because I appeared out of the blue, I didn't manage to hear anything they were planning, but I had to make myself clear. "I'll make it quick and to the point, I want your talking Pokémon to help me, please."
I slid a necklace that I owned to the table, hoping they would see the value of it. "I just want to talk with my friend, even if it's just for a few seconds" I looked back at them. "Will this diamond necklace do?" The woman stood up and yelled.
"Listen twerp, I don't know who you think you are, but we are planning something very important here." I still stood and watched Meowth regardless, I was a bit jealous.
"I can't believe you guys have such a Pokémon, incredible…" I pondered on the things that my Buizel could tell me, lost in my own imagination for a while; the Meowth was also getting angry.
"What is it with you kid?" He shook his arms around at me and showed his claws, he was ready to attack me.
"Okay okay, I just need to know what my Pokémon says and I'll give you something cool, like..." I took out a silver harmonica I had in my bag. "This instrument!"
"Sorry music boy. I’m not interested." He shook his head and turned around.
"Well then, would you accept money? I have a lot of money, just name a price" I wasn't sure what else to offer aside from money, I was hoping they would accept.
"Like we need money, we have money all the time." Meowth said, "This twerp clearly doesn't know who we are."
"Well um, what do you want then? Just name it." Hopefully I had anything they wanted.
"We only care about your Pokeymon right now!" Meowth said as he stood above the table and stretched his arm towards me. I looked around and noticed that there wasn't anyone nearby to watch our conversation.
"I'm sure it is because you want Buizel to use hyperbeam. Ha! He wouldn't do such a thing for your evil plans, tell'em buddy." Buizel jumped on top of the table and spoke to the Meowth, actually it would've seemed like he was yelling at him.
"Hey calm down! You don't have to be so mean." Meowth looked at Jessie and James, "he is right, that Pokémon would rather be gone than to be away from his trainer, he also absolutely refuses to use hyperbeam, no matter what.” I was proud of Buizel, what a good friend he was, I was happy to be able to understand just a bit of what he said, it was exciting to me.
I needed to insist, the opportunity of communication was painfully close that I felt like snatching Meowth immediately, but I had to be calm about this, I definitely didn't want to lose the chance. I slid the diamond collar once more; it is worth a ton of money after all.
"But really now, the collar is very expensive, I'm sure this is at least enough for a few minutes of your time." It was a diamond collar with a single gem in its center. It had a circular shape to it, and the chain that held the gem was made of pure gold, my hopes on their interest just rose as the thief with the purple hair grabbed a hold of it to look closely. The woman looked at me and smirked.
"Okay twerp I’ll give it to you, this collar is pretty okay but we want to see what else you have!" Jessie said.
"But, it's a necklace of diamond and gold," what else could I offer these guys? They are already ripping me off as it is, "I have like what, soda caps and paper clips... you are already gaining more than you should with the necklace." I noticed the guy with the blue hair stare in awe at the soda caps.
"Is that?! The special edition soda pop cap?!" He asked as he pointed at them dramatically, he was very surprised with them for whatever reason.
"Uh, I think so?" I had no idea what was going on, but before I knew it, the guy grabbed Meowth and spoke to him.
"Close the deal! CLOSE THE DEAL NOW!" He said while shaking Meowth's entire body back and forth.
"Okay twerp, you can let Meowth do… whatever it is that he does for two minutes" The woman with anti-gravity hair said, but I wanted more than just a few minutes.
"Fifteen minutes!" I insisted
"Five minutes!"
"Twelve minutes!"
"Ten minutes or no deal!"
Ten minutes would suffice for me; it will be enough to talk of many things
"It's a deal"
We exited the cafe and agreed to make the deal happen somewhere else, Sunnyshore's gym was very close to the cafe, we were heading away from the multitude. As Adam saw me walk alongside Team Rocket, he immediately followed. I told him that he should wait for me there, I still had something to do, he sat on the nearest bench waiting for me. I saw how Adam's expression shift from calm to horrified. As I turned back around I noticed Team Rocket running away with Buizel! I couldn't believe it! I just took them a split second. I was stunned in horror, I couldn't let them take my best friend away from me, and how will I even find these goons again! I just stumbled upon them at the cafe by sheer luck.
"Hey! Come back here you thieves!" Without thinking twice I grabbed both my pokeballs and released Pikachu and Riolu. The light from the pokeball revealed both my Pokémon. "Riolu, Pikachu! Chase down those criminals!" My Pokémon quickly dashed towards them; unfortunately Team Rocket was already close to their hot air balloon already.
The woman with the pink hair turned around and threw a strange device to both of them. It was a net that flew right above my Pokémon falling on top of them; the ends of the net struck the ground and kept both of my Pokémon held tight. My Pikachu attempted to use electric attacks but the net absorbed the energy from it and damaged them instead.
The woman laughed maniacally. "Good thing we are used to the other twerp's Pikachu at this point, right James?"
Their whole team got up aboard the hot air balloon, James was crying however. "But Jessie I wanted those bottle caps! They are so rare!"
"Quit whining James, this Pokémon is far more valuable than your stupid caps." The hot air balloon ignited the flame and they began to rise. "Now that we have this Pokémon, we will use him to capture the other twerp's Pokémon! See you never!"
"My bottle caps!"
I ran towards the net and tried freeing Riolu and Pikachu myself, but the net itself was too hard to get out. This was horrifying, my best friend was being stolen by these clowns and I'm fearing that I may never see him again and I don’t know what I can do. I just watched helplessly how they were flying away. I feel ashamed; I made my friend go through an unnecessary danger...
A very loud flapping noise caught my attention behind me, before I could turn a huge Pokémon flew right above me, it was Adam's Charizard! I felt more relieved!
"Oh no you don't! Do you clowns think you can just run away with my friend's Pokémon with such ease?" Adam yelled at them as he approached them at a steady pace.
It was hard to see from the distance, but I noticed Charizard closing in. Then an audible scream from Team Rocket caught my attention, I paid attention to everything that happened, I noticed Charizard throwing an attack towards the balloon, the transport exploded and I noticed the three of them fly off at the distance.
The reaction of Adam was simply amazing; he noticed what Team Rocket did before I even noticed despite their skills on stealing. He rode the Charizard quickly towards the balloon and attacked Team Rocket. There was definitely amazing trainer attributes within him.
Adam flew back towards me, I managed to free Riolu and Pikachu from the net, but the electric attacks had both of them fainted. Buizel was scared and shivering as he was in Adam's arms; as soon as he handed him back to me he smiled and hugged me. "Buizel I'm so sorry!" I was completely disappointed in myself for putting my friend to such dangers, "I was so worried about you, and I promise that I won't do something so dangerous again!" I hugged my Buizel and held him close to me; I patted him and assured him that everything was going to be alright now. Adam was proud of helping me, he really did impress me.
"Thank you so much Adam, I don't know how I can repay you." If there were any doubts that he had changed, they were all gone by this point, I was still crying just a bit, Buizel did hug me tightly and being with him indeed calmed me down. I'm just happy that he is safe now.
"After all I did to you in the past and for your kindness this is the least I could do for you!" Adam seemed calm, but I could feel that he was very proud of what he had just done for me.
"Really now?"
"Well, not the least I could do, but I'm glad I helped you after what I did."
"That is all forgiven," I grabbed his shoulder and smiled at him, "All forgiven indeed my friend. Although I don't really understand, how is it that while being such a fantastic trainer you are still not being able to keep your Pokémon close?" I did want to know; even if he didn't know the answer himself maybe I could aid him.
"Well, I'm not sure why that is, but my Pokémon train every day very hard!" Adam said proudly, but I noticed the Charizard a bit sad by this.
"Maybe your Pokémon don't like to train the whole time? I mean there is more to it than just training you know." I advised him.
"You think so?"
"Indeed, Charizard doesn't seem to like the fact that you train almost all the time. Is this true?" I asked his Charizard, to which she quickly nodded. Adam saw this nod and was amazed.
"Wow, how is it that you know this stuff?"
"I got to understand Pokémon in a special way. I'm sure you will do one day as well!"
"Well tell me! What is it?"
"It's something that you must figure out in time." I sighed, despite my understanding of Pokémon there I honestly wished for, "regardless of this though, I still can't understand what my best friend says."
"I'm sure it is not necessary." I was saddened, the communication factor was indeed important for me and my friend, not many understood.
"There has been something very important that my Buizel has wanted to tell me, but I can never understand what that may be."
"Maybe... maybe you are just thinking he does have something to say..."
"He does though, look." I held my dear Buizel at eyesight and asked him, "Is there something super important you wanna tell me?" Buizel nodded and said yes, "does it have to do with our friendship?" Another nod.
"Wow, have you like," Adam thought for a bit, "Maybe tried to ask him as you are guessing?"
"I have tried, but I can never guess!" I sat down at the grass patch beside the road and held all of my Pokémon near me, Pokémon were always the ones I loved being around with when I was feeling sad, I just wished all my friends were not fainted. "Do you know what a very deep wish of mine is?" I asked Adam, he didn't respond nor did I expect him too, I just wanted to vent now.
"I've always wished that I could talk to Pokémon, ever since the happiest day of my life, the day me and Buizel became the bestest of friends."
"Why do you want to talk to Pokémon?" Adam asked, "well you know, aside from talking to your best friend."
"I feel that I need to at times. At other times I feel like I want to understand Pokémon better than I can, sometimes I also feel that there is something," what's the word now... "mystical about the Pokémon world." I wondered on the things that could be beyond my imagination, it was interesting to think about. "I'd give anything to learn how to speak to Pokémon; I'll still look for the way, so I have been doing ever since I left Kalos."
Our conversation was cut as Team Rocket reappeared, Adam pointed them out and so did Charizard. Team Rocket ran from him. Adam stood up and got agitated. "Kevin! You have to put Buizel in the pokeball!" It was not something I honestly wanted to do, and it was not something Buizel wanted to do either. 'You must keep your friend safe from them, just for a little bit!" Buizel didn't seem to like the idea; I looked around my bag for the pokeball.
"I'll try to convince my friend to do so," I saw Adam chase after Team Rocket; I was left alone with my Pokémon until he came back. "Buizel we gotta get you in the pokeball. Just for a bit." Buizel didn't look too happy about it but he agreed later on. "It'll just be a few seconds buddy."
I was sitting right alongside Buizel with my pokeball; it's strange to think that I have never put Buizel in my pokeball ever since he got captured by Adam. It was a dire situation this time; I pointed Buizel with the pokeball and triggered it. The laser of the pokeball caught Buizel and as I saw him he started to glow red...
Wait, something is off, the whole place was going red right before my eyes, I looked around the sky and the ground and everything was tinted red for me, I looked at Buizel once again, he was completely petrified and before I knew it.
Darkness.
I felt like I was waking up from a rough night, however my eyes opened to reveal nothing at all, I was awake, but the world around me was gone. I couldn't see anything or myself, the strangest part is that I can still feel my best friend nearby. Not only could I not see anything, but I could not hear anything, not even my own heartbeat, it was as if I only existed in a reality where nothing else did. I spoke but words didn't exist either.
Time went by, this place didn't feel as if it existed but it was oddly calm in here, it makes me feel as if I could easily sleep in here, but my worries over the current situation did nothing but keep me wide awake. It is annoying that I can feel Buizel around but I can't see him at all.
From time to time I can see a flickering white light ahead of me, but it quickly goes back to black, I knew for certain that the light would take me back outside. As I was musing about the world outside, felt pain out of the blue, I was feeling that the body that I couldn't see was being harmed, it felt more as if I was being disintegrated.
I was scared to death, is this how it was going to end? Will I never know what my friend has to say to me? I feel that there is so much more to do, all I wanted was to understand Pokémon in my life, it saddens me that I will never get to know this, I'm so scared... I just want to hug my best friend one more time...
...
Am I still alive? How long did I pass out from that? I still find myself in this void space, but my whole body has gone completely numb, I was able to feel the existence of my body before but now it was impossible for me. I could still feel my best friend around me; this whole situation became maddening to me. I slowly doubted if I was still alive or not, maybe this is what await in the afterlife. But what would've been the reason I'm here?
Just as I doubted myself the light appeared one more time, this time the light grew and was covering the corners of my vision, I felt reality reappearing one more time around me. The colors invaded me; the fresh air was back, the feeling of my feet touching the ground once more, the weight of gravity. All those things that were devoid in that darkened void came through me in a strong flurry of blows, it felt as if the world opened for me once again, all this light was too much for me to bear, so I closed my eyes, it was hard for me to stand as I felt my body numb, so I sat on the ground.
As I felt everything ended, I opened my eyes slowly the light slowly adjusted and I could see Ash looking at me directly. What was Ash doing here right now? He was smiling, was I in danger of something from Team Rocket or some sort of device hit me? It was still just a bit hard to see, but I noticed Ash's friends and a few people with robes looking down at me.
Ash said something to me, but it was hard to listen so I couldn't hear, I felt that something was placed around my neck, probably that diamond necklace... But wait! Where is Buizel! I need to find him!
I Stood up as quickly as I could, looked around for the door to the exit and I ran towards it, only to fall from a high distance, how is it that I feel down from up high? What is going on? I looked around as I saw that the world had become bigger around me.
"What is going on!?” I grabbed my own throat in desperation, I felt myself talk indeed, but I felt myself talking like Buizel. "What is going on here what is this nonsense?" I muttered to myself, thinking of the possible explanations to what could be happening; the situation was too bizarre for me. I touched my face, my form had shifted into something foreign to me, I had a maw, I had paws and I had some sort of inflatable device around my neck aside from my necklace.
"It's just like the others..." A doctor said as he stared down from way high, his height was impressive. But then it became clear to me, they were not huge, I was small! "All of the Pokémon are disorientated at first and then react in a bizarre way, I have no idea how this one will react." What did this mean? Why is he talking if I were a Pokémon?
Wait a second...
"Don't worry little Buizel, we will take good care of you. I'm a Pokémon doctor."
...Impossible...
To be continued…
