Chapter 9

Reunited pt 1

It's finally time, my friends. The long awaited face to face between Lincoln and the others. But first, on to the reviews.

GameLover41592: Glad you enjoyed it.

duskrider: That was kind of the logic behind giving her a Noibat.

qazse: Oh words will be thrown by Lincoln.

Me. Haziq: Depends on the side of the confrontation.

Guest 1: It's fair to assume that.

Matt: About a week and a half and yes, Fairy types will be in this.

Gage the Hedgehog: Wait no longer.

Guest 2: Sorry. But I've never watched Monster High.

Joanne Frances Tiano Cajiilig: Lincoln already told him.

Guest 3: It's hard for her to do that.

Wowza03: Yeah. That was kinda the plan with her.

And now Pokemaniacs... Let's kick it up!

LLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLL

Late at night in Professor Rowan's lab, Lucy was alone in the den looking after her Bat Pokémon .

"Okay. Now let's see if you wing's feeling any better." She said in a calming tone before the Pokémon began slowly flapping her wings for a few seconds before picking up the pace slightly as she managed to get off Lucy's lap and on to the table. "Good job." She praises while petting the head of the Pokemon.

Just then she looked out of the corner of her eye to see a green Turtle-like Pokémon with a yellow jaw, yellow feet, and a twig coming off its head in the corner of the room.

"Hello there." Lucy said as she approached the Pokémon before hearing a grumbling noise coming from him. "Sounds like your hungry. Come on. Let's go find some food." She said, before turning as the shy Turtle Pokémon followed her and her Bat Pokémon flew to her shoulder before she went to a pantry, looking for some food for them.

"Now, what kinds do you guys eat?" She asked while looking through the shelves.

"The food for Grass types is on the lower shelf to your right." Lucy heard before yelping and turning to see Professor Rowan.

'So that's what that feels like.' Lucy thought.

"And here is the Dragon type food. You can mix it with the Flying type food for your Noibat." Professor Rowan said before Lucy began getting the food ready before several minutes later, she and the Professor were sitting at a table as the two Pokémon ate on top of it.

"So..." Lucy began before asking the question that had been on the minds of most members of the Loud Family. "How much has Lincoln told you about us?"

"He has informed me of everything that transpired with that 'bad luck' business." Professor Rowan said as Lucy's face fell.

"Does he... Does he still hate us for what we did?" She asked, tears welling in her eyes at the thought.

Professor Rowan's normally stern face softened before he looked over to the window. "Look out there for a moment." He said as Lucy walked to the window and looked out at all of the nocturnal Pokémon that the Professor looked after for Trainers. " I can not tell you how many time Lincoln went without sleep because he was taking care of sick or injured Pokémon." He fondly said as Lucy turned back to him as if to ask his point. "Your brother has a truly kind spirit. One that can only hate certain people and you and your sisters are not those types." He said with a kind smile.

"Thank you." Lucy said, smiling at the Professor's kind words before she bid him a goodnight and went to get some rest, her Noibat returning to her should and the Grass type seeming to be saddened by her leaving. Noticing this, the Professor urged it to follow her before he got up to take care of some business.

(Theme song)

:I wanna be the very best like no one ever was: Lincoln stood in the center of the road watching the sun rise over the mountains.

:To catch them is my real test. To train them is my cause!: A Diveball caught Mudkip as Eevee high fived Lincoln with her tail.

:I will travel across the land. Searching far wide.: Lincoln, Eevee, Maylene, and the twins were running across an open plain as a heard of Horse-like Pokémon with flaming manes ran with them.

:Teach Pokémon ... To understand... The power that's inside!: Lincoln stood in a stadium as Eevee leapt forward and charged a giant Shadow Ball.

:Pokémon! Gotta catch'em all! It's you and me." Lincoln held Eevee and Shinx in either arm as Mudkip jumped on top of his head.

:I know it's my destiny!: Eevee Hit an Onix with her Iron Tail.

:Pokémon ! Oh. You're my best friend... In a world we must defend!: Lincoln, Eevee, Maylene and the twins stood against a group of people in black and white suits with Gs on the chest.

:Pokémon ! Gotta catch'em all! Our hearts so true!: Maylene preformed a kata with Meditite, Tyrogue and Breloom as Lola was standing in with Glameow in an arena wearing an elegant gown while Lana looking over a Pokémon egg with Poliwag.

:Our courage will pull us through.: Lincoln jumped out of a broken window on to Aerodactyl

:You teach me and I'll teach you. PO KE MON!: Lincoln's three Pokemon stood together, Mudkip firing mud out of its mouth, Shinx shooting out a purple beam with squares coming off it from its mouth, and Eevee firing off swift.

:Gotta catch'em all. Gotta catch'em all! Pokemon!: Lincoln stood back to back Maylene with Eevee on his shoulders and the twins beside him before the Pokemon logo appeared.

(With Lincoln's group the next day.)

Lincoln, Maylene, and twins had just arrived at the eastern entrance to Jubilife City. As they did so, Maylene looked over to Lincoln as he was clearly taking some deep breaths.

Maylene quickly reached for his hand before offering him a comforting smile.

(Flashback)

Lincoln was in his room at the Pokémon Center, still riding the high of the feeling of catching his Areodctyl. Suddenly, he heard the sound of a ringing before looking at his left wrist at a rectangular device.

He then pressed on a mechanism on the device as it opened up to reveal a screen with Professor Rowan in it.

"Professor! Good to see you! I've been meaning to tell you about everything that's been happening." Lincoln said, only dropping his smile when he saw the serious expression on his mentor's face. "What's wrong?" He asked.

"They're here, Lincoln." Professor Rowan said causing Lincoln's eyes to widen.

"I see. How are they?" Lincoln asked.

"They are well. Lucy is a bit nervous about seeing you. But her Noibat seems to be easing her nerves." Professor Rowan said.

"Lucy caught a Noibat?" Lincoln asked with a glimmer of pride in his sister.

"Apparently, during one of the tests Lisa was running on her portal, the Noibat fell through after being attacked and Lucy nursed it back to health." The Professor explained, gaining a smile from Lincoln as he thought of his sister's kindness.

"So, how do you wish to proceed?" Professor Rowan asked.

"Bring them with you to Jubilife. I'd rather get the confrontations out of the way." Lincoln said as Professor Rowan nodded in agreement.

"Very well. I will see you there." Professor Rowan said before the two of them bid each other farewell and ended the call.

"Vee vee?" Eevee asked as she jumped up on Lincoln's shoulder.

"I'm fine, Eevee." He said while rubbing the chin of his Pokémon partner. "Come on. Let's go get some milk." He said as they exited the room and began walking towards the Center's cafe.

As Lincoln was walking, he passed a window where he saw Maylene, her coat and pants having been removed to show her in a blue spandex outfit that was black on the shoulders and hips that showed off her well toned body was she performed a kata while bathed in the light of the full moon.

'Woah' Lincoln thought as all the blood in his body seemed to go in to his face.

"Oh. Hey Lincoln. Is everything okay. You look kind of stressed." Maylene asked, the boys stress about confronting his family still showing despite a good chunk of his brain that was focused the glow of Maylene's skin and how how her outfit formed around here petite though muscular physique.

"Actually, Maylene. I am really stressed right now. You think we could talk?" Lincoln asked, gaining a nod from pinkette before the two of them went to the centers cafe and ordered some Roserade tea as Lincoln sat down and told the Fighting type trainer his tale.

"And that's my story." Lincoln finished. Maylene didn't know what to think. It was documented, that other dimensions were a fact. That part didn't surprise her. What did, was the treatment of Lincoln.

"I can't beleave that your family would just cast out one of their own like that." Maylene said, gripping her cup so hard, she risked breaking it. "More than that, I can't beleve you forgive them." She said.

"I said I forgave my sisters. My parents on the other hand, are a different story." Lincoln said with venom in his voice.

"So, what are you going to do when you face them?" Maylene asked.

"I don't know." Lincoln said with no small amount of dread.

Maylene looked at the boy with empathy, finding it almost sad that someone who would leap off a building to help an injured Pokémon was dreading facing his parents this much.

"It's alright." Maylene said as she took Lincoln's hand. "I'll be right there with you." She said with a kind smile that caused Lincoln to smile back in gratitude before the two of them had basically the same thought.

'His/Her smile is beautiful.'

(End flashback)

"Come on. We don't want to keep Professor Rowan waiting." Lincoln said as he and the girls began to walk to the Jubilife Pokémon Center.

(With the rest of the Louds)

The rest of the large family had arrived in at a bus stop in Jubilife along with Professor Rowan.

"So, where are we supposed to meat up with Lincoln, again?" Lucy asked while adjusting the two Pokéballs now hanging on her belt the stepped off the bus.

"The Pokémon Center. The building with the red roof." The Professor explained.

"Excellent." Lisa remarked. "We are but a few minutes always from... Where's Lynn?" She asked as everyone looked around to see the sporty Loud sister was gone.

"I have a pretty good idea where she is." Leni said as she and the others began moving through the city at a hurried pace.

(With Lincoln's group.)

Lincoln and the girls were walking through the streets of Jubilife and rounding the corner that led to the Center.

"So, Lo. You think you're ready for your Contest?" Lana asked.

"I'm a little nervous about the battle portion. But, Glameow and I are more than ready for the performance." Lola said with confidence in her voice.

"Don't worry, Lola. You'll do fine in the battle portion. Just relax and meet it head on." Lincoln said before he stopped walking.

"What's wrong?" Maylene asked as she and the twins both stopped behind Lincoln and the twins caught sight of what or rather, who Lincoln was looking at.

'Speaking of meeting things head on.' Lincoln thought as he stood there looking dead in the eyes of Lynn.

LLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLL

Well, there you go, guys. I hope you enjoyed this chapter. I would have done this all in one go. But I've left you guys waiting long enough plus, I wanted to use Lola's Contest as a huge part of this so splitting in to two parts just made sense. Well anyway. Until next time and as always... Keep on keeping on.
