Hello! It's my first Fanfiction about Contestshipping and my first language is French, so I make mistakes from time to time...sorry about that! I hope that won't stop you from reading my fanfiction!
I love creating new characters! Sorry if you don't like them!
Disclaimer: I do not own Pocket monsters/Pokemon
There was no doubt now...she was lost. The trees were all looking the same and the different pokemon were looking scarier and scarier as she walked deeper into the forest. What got into her when she said that it was okay to travel alone?! Even though she got Skitty out a while ago to keep her company, it was nothing to do with someone to talk to. However she couldn't let herself panic, she couldn't give up so easily.
Her feet led her where she could see the sky. When she saw the sky, she got an idea. She released Beautifly and asked it to go see which way she had to go to get out of the forest. It flew up high and after a little while it returned close to its owner, showing the way out.
The girl, May, quickly ran after it with lights of hope in her blue eyes. Beautifly flew trought the leaves and branches and soon, a wide field appeared. Furrets were happily playing and Rattatas were searching for food.
May smiled as she thanked Skitty and Beautifly and returned them into their pokeballs. She ran into the field, breathing the fresh air and spinning around joyfully. She noticed a small house far away. May hoped that was a Pokemon center, it would be great to take a rest and heal her pokemon. Soon she found herself running the fastest she could get, but after sometimes she got tired and began to walk slowly.
After an hour, she started to see the house clearer, it didn't seem to be a pokemon center, but she still hoped it was at least a rest house.
The house was rather small, it had two floors and a road made of white rocks. She walked to the door, at each side of the road there were different flowers, beautiful flowers. She knocked on the little door and it cracked open. All May could see was that the girl behind the door had green eyes and blond hair.
« What is it? Who are you? » The girl asked quietly. May smiled.
« My name is May, is there any place I can rest for a while » She asked politly.
« Are you a Pokemon Trainer? » The girl asked as May nodded proudly. The door opened widely and a girl about her age, wearing a light blue T-shirt and a white skirt that fell down to her knees, appeared.
The trainer entered in the kitchen. There was a table in the middle of the room with pink mats and a basket of oran berries on it. A small book case was standing in the corner of room, books about different species of Pokemon or about berries were placed in alphabetical order on the many shelves. Photos of kids playing and smiling were hanging on the wall left to May.
« Wow, You have a cute house! » May said as she stepped in the room.
« Shh, quieter please, Someone's sleeping on the second floor » The girl told her nicely.
« Oops, Sorry...is it a friend of your? » She asked quietly out of curiosity.
« No, it's a trainer who stopped here an hour ago, he seemed tired, so I told him to take a nap in the guest room. » The girl said as she sat down on one ofthe four chairs that was beside the table.
« So this is a rest house for trainers »
« No it's my friend's house, I'm taking care of it until he comes back from his journey around Johto. » She said, taking an oran berry from the basket and playing with it. « I let in only people that won't cause any problems or that seems tired »
« Okay! Well thank you, I wandered at least 3 days in the forest. And my pokemons need to healed, is there a pokecenter close to your house? » May asked picking Munchlax's pokeball in her hand and looking at it with worry in her eyes.
« Unfortunatly the next city is 2 hours from here by walk. But I can help you, come with me a second. » She got up as the trainer gazed at her. The blond girl smiled and opened the door. May followed her in the backyard where flowers where brightly shining in the sun. They passed the fence and came into the big field.
« Chansey!! Come over here please! » She yelled as a pink pokemon came running awkwardly since its legs where short. It squealed its name a few times. « Can you please heal my firend's pokemons with your softboiled? » It squeaked its name again happily and walked close to May. Chansey took one of May's pokeball in her hands, Squirtle's pokeball, it glowed for a moment and then Chansey handed it over to May. It repeated its actions for the others.
May took her pokedex out and seached for the move softboiled.
Softboiled
Heals the user by up to half its full HP, It can be used to heal an ally,
but it takes from the user's HP.
« Your Chansey must be strong to be able to heal all my pokemons with his own HP » May said, amazed.
« Yeah, it's strong, but it doesn't like to battle, it prefers to help others. » She looked at her pokemon and patted its head. « Thank you Chansey you can go back now » It squeale again its name and ran back.
« So, May, How about we go back inside and drink a nice leppa juice? »
« Oh yeah great Idea! Uhm, it may seems sill, but I still don't know your name » May said as she walked sfter the girl.
« True, my name is Mieko, Primrose Mieko » May raise an eyebrow at how wierd the name sounded.
« Your last name is a flower's name? » She asked innocently. However, Mieko turned around with a frown and fire in her green eyes.
« Yes, got a problem with that? » She questioned rather coldly as May stepped back awkwardly, realising her action, she quickly shook her head and smiled softly. « Sorry, I didn't mean to sound like that »
They entered in the house and Mieko sat down in the same chair she was sitting on before they had gone in the field. May stood by the door, staring at the photos hanging on the wall at her left. Two children were playing in a field, A boy with deep brown eyes and light-brown hair was looking at the camera happily with his hand behind his head. The girl at his right was smiling softly, a light blush on her cheeks and a flower in the hands. Her blond hair were blowing in the wind and her green eyes were full oh happiness and hope.
« Who is it? On the photo? » May asked, pointing it. Mieko got up and walked to her side.
« It's Drake, and the girl next to him is me, nine years ago » She explained.
« Is it your borther? » The blond girl jumped in surprise and then laughed as if it was a joke.
« No, he's not, he's not in my family, but he's really close » May looked at her questioningly, why was it so funny? « It's only a close friend, he's special to me » She looked at the photo with a light of nostalgia. « He owns this house and he is on his journey to become a gym leader »
« A gym leader? »
« It's his dream since we are children, he likes fire-type pokemons and he has total trust in them and when he'll return, he'll build up a gym next to this house and he will accept any challenge! » She explained with confidence in her eyes.
« You must really like him to have such a confidence in him. » Mieko blushed and stared at May blankly. She was about to add something when they heard noises behind her, from the stairs.
Footsteps were the only noise heard in the house. When the person was about to reach the bottom of the stairs, he turned around and stared blankly at the two girls. May had wide-opened eyes. She couldn't believe that the co-ordinater that was standing at the other side of the room was her biggest rival, the one and only Drew!
« Drew?! What are you doing here? » She asked, as she stepped toward the boy. ¸he flicked his hair nonchalant and smirked.
« Hey May, where are your little friends? » He asked acting as if he was searching for someone around.
« I decided to travel on my own! Besides, Ash went to Shinou with Brock and Max went back home to study pokemon before he starts his own journey. » She said kind of sadly.
« Let me figure this, may traveling on her own! Are you sure you will be able to get to the contest hall in time, or even manage to get in the city without getting lost in the forest? » He giggled as he walked to the table and sat down on a chair. May stared at him frowning.
« You know each other? » Mieko popped in the conversation.
« Yeah, unfortunatly » May said agrily.
« Aww, May stop hiding your feelings, I know you're happy to see me » He told her flicking his hair off his eyes again. It becomes silent, until Mieko starts to laugh for no reason, May stared at her and soon, she was laughing with her, Drew sniggered as muttered 'girls...' under his breath. Both of the girls laughed until they where both unable to speak and their eyes began to water.
However, A strike of thunder stopped all the laughing in the house. Mieko turned around, looking outside the window and wipped tears with her hand. « Oh great, thunder now. » She said as she ran out the door. May and Drew gazed at each other with raised eyebrows and followed her. The strong wind startled them when they came out. They looked up and saw that the sunny sky was now covered by dark clouds. Pidgeys and Taillows were flying around trying to find a shelter. Sentrets were running around paniced by the sudden change of weather.
They caught up with Mieko, who was returning her pokemons in their balls while trying to keep her skirt down. « What's wrong? » May asked when she got to her side. The blond girl stared at the field with concern. « Mieko?! What's wrong?! » She ignored May and ran into the field, almost falling when her foot bumped into a rock.
The wind was growing stronger and stranger. It wasn't safe to be outside. May was about to follow her, but Drew grabbed her arm. « Drew let me go, Mieko's in danger! » he looked at her with a frown and let go of her arm.
« Get back inside, I'll go and find her! » Drew yelled as he ran pass her. May nodded and rushed inside looking anxiously through the window. The rain was starting to fall, after a while, the rain was pouring down heavily. She seached for an umbrella in the house, but she quit when a lightning lit up the room. It was too dangerous to go out now. She tried to see through the rain and the fog.
Drew was running, barely seeing his own feet. He yelled Mieko's name a few time, but no sound came back. The rain was painful, and he was scared that a lightning might strike him. The green-haired boy started to lost all hopes when he heard a pokemon cry. He tried to find the way it came from, and sprinted to where he thought it came from. A lightning lit up the sky, making him shiver a bit, but it didn't stop him. He stopped when he saw something move.
There she was tried her best to hold her skirt down and to keep her Flareon safe from the rain. Drew came quickly next to her. « Mieko, come on, we have to reach the house before another lightning stikres! » The Flareon was weak, it was shaking and its fur was all wet. Drew helped her to face the strong wind and started to run making sure she was following him.
May's face brightened up when she saw a shadow running toward the house and soon another one appeared behind the first. She rushed to the door, opening it widely to let her two friends enter the house.
Their clothes were soaked wet. Mieko fell on her knees, panting and trembling uncontrollably while Drew stayed up his hand on his knees, looking at the floor, breathing heavily. May came close to them, « Is there anything I can do? Whare are the towels? » She asked paniced and ready to help.
« Yeah they are on the second floor the third door to your left, and take a Max potion in the medical cabinet, please! »
May ran up the stairs, found the third room to her left and took the towel from the small closet, She search for a max potion, but all she could find was an hyper potion, so she took it and went down the stairs. Her two friends were in the exact same posotion than when they left them. She threw a towel on Drew's head and handed one to Mieko.
« You can't...even be polite...when you give a towel...to someone » Drew panted out, drying his hair.
She looked at him frowning and helped Mieko up. « May, you have to take care of Flareon, have you brought that Max potion I asked you to bring? » She shook her head for a not.
« There was no Max potion left, so I picked an hyper potion, I figured that it would be the same. » She said shrugging.
« It's not, hyper potion restors less HP than Max potion, and Flareon is my strongest pokemon, so it needs an max potion!» Mieko yelled at May and burst out into tears seconds later.
The brown haired girl stroke her shoulder to confort her. She tried to think of something to say to calm her down at least a bit. « Maybe Chansey is able to use Softboiled on it, it'll maybe need time to rest, but it'll be okay...right Drew? »
Drew wasn't listening, too busy to dry his hair and clothes. He gave her an odd look. « humm...ahhh...Yeah...Of course! »
Mieko took her fire pokemon in her arms and put it on the table. It was breathing heavily « It was already weak before the storm, I forgot that I battled with it yesterday. I am such a bad trainer.» Tears were falling down her cheeks and she stroke Flareon's fur softly. «How come, these kind of things always happen to me!»
