The Journey To Bebay Town Cont. (Natsumi/Open)

[Ryuu]

Out of breathe I doubled over with my hands on my knees in front of the "Welcome To Hamton Lake" sign. Looking back I see Natsumi jogging only a few paces behind.

[Natsumi]

Natsumi stopped next to Ryuu. "That wasn't fair. You had a head start," she said, falling back onto her butt. She sat there, catching her breath, than she turned to the lake. It was streaming with people. Kids were playing in the water, trainers were fishing, people relaxing. Pokemon were there too, just relaxing next to their owners. There was a variety from Pichu's to Swamperts.

[Ryuu]

"Yeah yeah." I said joking around.
"Well, lets look around and find something to do before we move on to Aquast Town, THAT ACTUALLY HAVE A GYM LEADER THAT DOES THEY'RE JOB!" I said a bit louder and with resentment than i meant to let out. Now with a lot of people staring I motion Natsumi to follow me too a more remote area so we wouldnt be stared at.

"Oops." I said, but in a sarcastic tone as I sat down on a blanket I had pulled out of my bookbag.
"I dont really like doing anything." I stated as I lied down on my back closing my eyes.
"Why dont we just..rest." I barely got out because I started yawning.

[Natsumi]

Natsumi laughed a bit as he began to fall asleep. She sat down and let all her pokemon out. "You all stay with in 10 feet of-," she was cut short as a trainer came up to her and asked her to battle. She gave a small nod.

~FTB~

Natsumi had battle a good 3 trainers before she had to really use the super potions she had. She smiled at her pokemon and lightly shook Ryuu awake. "Look what I got while you were asleep," she said, while pointing at a medium sized redish pokemon. It was a Charmeleon.

[Ryuu]

"Whaaaa!" I said with a scream as I woke up with a charmeleon laughing in my face.
"No fair, you went and trained without me." I said on the verge of tears.
"My poor Cyndaquil is only two levels away." I added as I stood up real quick.
"Two can play at that game!." I stated as I ran off toward the shore where trainers waiting to battle are bound to be.

Out of breathe I catch a trainer out of the corner of my eye with a wingull on his shoulder.
"Wanna battle." I said with an enthusiastic grin.
"Um..sure." Said the kid, who was obviously younger than me and intimidated. Before I could even get the command out of my mouth Cyndaquil flew out of his pokeball and onto the sand in front of me.
"Alright Cyndaquil give it your all." I yelled out at him with a smile across my face. Before I could say anything else the Wingull attacked.

"Super sonic." Yelled the other trainer across the battlefield. Never seeing this attack before the wavelengths quickly reached Cyndaquil and knocked him over.
"Hurry Cyndaquil get up and use ember followed by a tackle." I commanded Cyndaquil without a moment of hesitation. Cyndaquil quickly jumped up and used ember on Wingull singing the feathers on his belly. Unfortunately the tackle missed considering the Wingull was mid flight.

The wingull was coming down at Cyndaquil fast about to use watergun until the burn set in and the Wingull flinched.
"Hurry Cyndaquil hit him with another ember before he flies too high." I belted out in a hurry. Cyndaquil used ember this time hitting Wingull in the wing rendering him flightless.

"Comeback Wingull, you gave it your all." Said the trainer still with a smile on his face.
"Thanks for the battle." I said giving the trainer a thumbs up.
"You did great Cyndaquil!" I said while grabbing for his pokeball.
"Actually, you could use some air." I said putting the pokeball back up.
"Onto the next battle." I said as i pointed into the distance.

After walking along the beach looking for a trainer I finally give up and sit in the shade. Hearing a rustling in the bushes behind me i quickly stand up and turn around to investigate.
"Who's there!" I said kind of loudly hoping to scare off whoever or whatever was lurking in the bushes.

"Bidoooof!" Screamed the wild pokemon as it came flying out of the bushes and towards me and Cyndaquil.
"Cyndaquil tackle!" I let out as the Bidoof confronted us. Cyndaquil jumped and tackled the wild bidoof mid-air.
"Now use ember while its off balance." I bellowed out at Cyndaquil.
Cyndaquil used ember and badly burned the Bidoof because Cyndaquil used it mid-tackle.

Bidoof suprisingly recovered fast and used tackle and nailed Cyndaquil head on. Cyndaquil went flying back from the impact and almost hit me.
"Cyndaquil!" I yelled at my pokemon hoping he was okay.
"Hurry get up!" I said as the Bidoof was readying his next tackle. Bidoof quickly followed up and used another tackle only this time Cyndaquil jumped out of the way and used his own tackle without the need of me commanding him to.

The wild Bidoof fell on his side and fainted, one more win to add to Cyndaquil's belt.
"Great job Cyndaquil." I said patting him on his head.
"Cyndaquiiiiil!" Let out my pokemon as he started to glow brighter and brighter until I was blinded by the light and shielded my eyes with my arm.

"Quiiilava!" I heard out of the slowly dimming light until my new Quilava was revealed.
"Not so small anymore now are youGym Badges:" I said rubbing Quilava on the head and giving him and oran berry I picked off of the bush the Bidoof jumped out of.

"Lets go find Natsumi." I said with a smile across my face and a glisten of accomplishment in my eyes.
