Ask to Join Journey through Kalos

[TheStargazer]

"Good Idea," Fletcher said. He had experience on riding some Pokemon. Em hid in Fletcher's bag while Fletcher mounted Skiddo, leaving room for Aster and Malle. Fletcher put his hands on Skiddo's horns.
"I need you to take me and Aster to Cyllage City." Fletcher thought to him as he heard somewhere Gogoat, can read emotions and feelings and Fletcher thought maybe Skiddo could as well.

 

[Ombree]

Aster climbed on Skiddo with Malle in her lap. She couldn't wait too see Uncle Grant again, she'd been away for about a month already. She had been to Coumarine, Shalour and Lumiouse. But she was home sick.

 

[TheStargazer]

Skiddo rushed through a town that Fletcher had never seen before. A sign read "Welcome to Camphrier Town." Skiddo just got out of the town and was about to go further when he saw a Snorlax Blocking the bridge. Skiddo slowed down. "What are we going to do?" Fletcher said.

 

[Ombree]

"Hmmm... I've heard that a Pokeflute will wake a Snorlax. But wher would we get one?" Aster said. Underneath the bridge was a huge Revine, she could climb up it but it was too steep to go down. "Maybe Em could use Psychic, but she might be too tired..." Aster suggested.

 

[TheStargazer]

"Em's been sleeping since we got on Skiddo so I think she'll be strong enough," Fletcher said. Em woke up after hearing her name. "Thankyou Skiddo, take a little rest," Fletcher said as he returned Skiddo. Em then used her Psychic power to carry Fletcher and Aster down to the Bottom over the Revine. They dropped once but Em managed to carry them across the revine. Fletcher then noticed a cave with 2 tunnels. "Which one is the right one do you think?" Fletcher asked.

 

[Ombree]

"Should we split up or stay together?" Aster asked. They caves were awfully dark, but Malle could see perfectly. Malle walked over to Em.

"(Which one do you think leads to the way out?) Purrloin Loin Purr?" Malle asked.

 

[TheStargazer]

"If they lead to seperate exits then we should stay together, How about we try the one on the left," Fletcher said.

"(I honestly don't know but I trust my trainer so...) Purr Espurr," Espurr said to Malle

 

[Ombree]

"Okay" Aster said. She hoped Froakie was okay inside the backpack. She picked Malle up and started to walk. She could soon see light in the distance. She quickly ran towards the light and came out on the edge of a cliffside. She slipped over and clawed onto the grass, legs dangling over the side of the Revine. Malle was hanging onto her backpack for dear life.

 

[TheStargazer]

"ASTER!" Fletcher screamed when they fell. Em was quick to respond and grabbed both of them with psychic and took them to Fletcher.
"THAT WAS SO CLOSE, DON'T SCARE PEOPLE LIKE THAT!" Fletcher yelled at Aster. Fletcher then calmed down and apologised for yelling.

 

[Ombree]

"Sorry... I'm not usually that silly..." Aster mumbled, "I'm just really eager to see Grant."

She picked up Malle and put her on her shoulders. "Let's go back" Aster said. She turned around and began to walk back. "Do you ever miss Emma and Mimi?" Aster asked.

 

[TheStargazer]

"I really miss her but sometimes, you remind me of her sometimes," Fletcher said embarrassed. they walked through the cave back the way they came and went through the other entrance. Fletcher was annoyed that they had to go through more cave. Fletcher then continued the story, "Em and Mimi are sisters we discovered when we found them so I think it would be harder on Em," Fletcher said. Em immediately nodded. She missed her little sister so much. She hoped that she was safe with Emma.

 

[Ombree]

"I get it, that's how I feel about Grant." Aster said, "My parents never really understood me, so Grant kind of took me on as his own child... He trained me, taught me, and even gave me Malle"

She looked down at Em, Aster felt really sorry for her. Aster had an older brother, but he currently living in Hoenn. She didn't really miss him because she never really knew him.

Aster could see light in the distance, but she walked this time. She didn't want to go falling off a cliff again. When she reached the exit, she could see Cyllage City up ahead. She grinned and walked a bit faster.

 

[Le Marsouin]

The Froakie was still inside the backpack that he went into earlier, as he was heavily asleep from his exhaustion. His frubbles were puffed up over his curled body in a blanket-like shape, as he quietly snored to the gentle breeze that went on outside. He was oblivious to the other voices that conversed about with each other, as he continued to snore to himself. He took in a quiet breath, as the moving footsteps gave him the information that the group was approaching towards a new city.

 

[Ombree]

Aster ran into Cyllage City, they were finally here! She breathed in the fresh air and sighed, she couldn't wait to see Grant. She quickly rushed to the mountain and ran up the long staircase to the top.

Eventually she pulled herself up the last step and ran inside the gym.
"Grant! Grant I'm here! It's me, Aster!" She called. Grant was sitting on the battlefield, way up in the air. This was where she had learned to climb, on this rock climbing wall.

"Are you gonna climb up the easy or the har way?!" Grant shouted down.

"Hard way!" Aster shouted back up, she had never taken the elevator up. She swung her backpack onto her back and put Malle on her shoulders.

"That's the Aster I know!" Grant yelled.

Aster swung her foot up onto the first rock, moving her hand to a higher one. She slipped a few times but managed not to fall. She pulled herself up onto the battlefield and breathed a sigh of relief. Then she ran over to Grant and gave him a big hug.

"I'm sooooo happy to see you!" She exclaimed.

"Me too Aster" Grant said soothingly.

For a moment, Aster forgot why she was here. Then she unzipped her backpack and carefully took the Froakie out. "We found this guy in Lumiouse, the nurse joy was trying to take him. But I don't think he likes medicine." Aster said.

 

[TheStargazer]

Fletcher quickly followed Aster as she seemed to know where the gym was. When he entered, It was something he was blown away. Fletcher watched as Aster started to climb.
"I'll go the easy way," Fletcher said. He wasn't good at climbing at all. Fletcher looked at Em in the elevator and Em looked back. They were ready, ready to win the Cyllage City Gym Badge.

 

[Le Marsouin]

The Froakie woke up startled to the unfamiliar grip that was carefully holding him, as he exclaimed in response to being held, "Froakie! Froakie!" He didn't expect Aster to suddenly take him out of the bag right off the bat, as he was too busy sleeping from earlier. He squirmed in her arms, as his frubbles were now in their normal shapes; staying mostly on his back and his upper chest.

His eyes widened when he heard Aster mentioning the truth about him, as he said to her in a fit of petulancd while resisting the urge to let off a water pulse, "Fro- Froakie!" He looked over at the unknown stranger that seemed to know Aster by heart, as he felt a faster beat that pulsed in his small body. His nervous eyes surveyed over the area; attempting to find the nearest exit out of the Gym that he was in with Aster. He thought to himself while he continued to squirm in Aster's Grip, "Oh no... what if that person over there is also secretly a Nurse... that girl told them that I ran away from that other Nurse earlier! I'd better find a way out of here fast, because I'm sure not going to be spending my time crying from those pointy thingies and drinking that pink stuff all day!"

 

[Ombree]

"Give him to me Aster" Grant said calmly. Aster gently picked up Froakie and handed him to Grant, he looked nervous. "Don't worry, I'm not a nurse and neither is Grant" She said. Grant walked over to a small room in the side of the gym and entered it, he came out with a few berries. "You can eat these Froakie, they're fresh from the forest and they won't harm you" Grant said soothingly.

"Oh yeah, my friend Fletcher also wants to challenge you to a gym battle. He's coming up the elevator now" Aster said.

 

[TheStargazer]

Fletcher finally arrived at the top of the gym. "That was a long ride up to the top," Fletcher said. He hoped he could win a badge or at least learn something. "Judging by the theme of the gym, he probably specialises in rock type pokemon," Fletcher said to himself. Em was hiding in Fletchers bag, waiting to be called out and use in battle. She was nervous that she was going to lose.
