Chapter 10: You're Gonna Have A Bad Time!
It shall be written in Present Tense.
~Masaaki~
"Masaaki, there's something you should remember." Isamu smirks.
"What is it, Isamu?" I ask curiously.
"You're gonna have a bad time!" Isamu shouts.
I facepalm and roll my eyes.
"The battle?" Grant looks at me.
"Right. Sorry." I say.
"Amaura, Ice Beam!" Grant commands.
"Frogadier, Water Pulse!" I call out.
Amaura shoots a beam of ice(totally not obvious) out of its mouth. Frogadier barely manages to dodge by jumping up, and barely lands on its feet. As soon as it lands, it forms a ball of water in its hands(or whatever) and throws it at Amaura. Amaura gets hit by the Water Pulse, but isn't effected it much.
"Ahh!" I shout.
~Akira~
I hold onto my phone so when the battle will end I can do what I want to, but the battle is taking too long. I'm leaving. I sigh and get up from the bench I was sitting on. I quietly leave the gym without anyone noticing. I look at my phone again and scroll through my contacts. Natsuko... Mom... Akane... Masaaki... Isamu... Grandpa? Isn't he dead?... Dad... Where's she? Oh right. I remember her number, so I'll just call her that way. I type down her number and tap call on my S-Phone. Dialling.....Dialling.....Dialling....Connected!
"HI AKIRA!" She yells.
"Hi! Wait, how do you know who this is?" I ask.
"I...er.... H-have your number s-saved...." She stutters.
"Oh. So what's up?" I say.
"N-Nothing really... What about you?" Hiroko asks.
"I was with Masaaki at the Cyllage Gym. How's Hoenn?" I ask.
"Um..... Good?" Hiroko sighs.
"What happened this time?" I sigh.
"I ended up almost off Swellow while flying and while landing in Sootopolis I fell off of Swellow and it hurt really, really bad. Luckily, Kohaku saw me, so he picked me up and took me to the Pokemon Centre. I was there for two days, but don't worry, it was nothing too bad!" Hiroko laughs.
~Hiroko~
"Well, uh.... Five days ago, I ended up almost off Swellow while flying and while landing in Sootopolis I fell off of Swellow and it hurt really, really bad. Luckily, Kohaku saw me, so he picked me up and took me to the Pokemon Centre. I was there for two days, but don't worry, it was nothing too bad!" I lie.
The truth is, I'm actually leaving the Pokemon Centre right now, and I still feel horrible.
"Hiroko, no more lies, you promised me that." Akira says.
"I'm not lying, Akira." I say.
"Hiroko, I've known you for all 15 years of my life, and you think I won't be able to tell when you're lying?" Akira laughs.
"Fine. I'm in the Pokemon Centre right now. Today is the day I get to leave, so Kohaku and I are going home now." Hiroko sighs.
"How do you feel now?" I ask.
"Better, I guess." She replies.
"I wish I could come to Hoenn." Akira sighs.
"I wish you could." She also sighs.
"Well, I might come to Hoenn soon!"
"Really?!" Hiroko exclaims.
"No..."
"Oh. We're home! Bye Akira!"
"Bye Hiroko!"
I put my phone back in my pocket and head back to the gym. By the time I get there, everyone is leaving. Masaaki is in a really bad mood.
"Oh shit..." I think.
"What happened?" I sigh and ask.
"Masaaki lost." Akane answer.
"And that's why he's in a bad mood?"
"Yep." Isamu rolls his eyes.
"Where were you?" Masaaki asks.
"D-doing... S-something..." I stutter.
"Mhm. Sure..." Isamu rolls his eyes again.
"Let's just... Go to the hotel..."
I stay silent for the the rest of the way back.

"AKIRA! GO TO SLEEP!" Masaaki yells.
"No! I have to talk to Hiroko!" I suddenly realize what I said and cover my mouth immediately.
"Hi-Hiroko?" Masaaki asks, extremely confused.
Isamu randomly pops up and says,
"What, Akira? I couldn't understand you... Hehehehe..." And then disappears.
"ANYWAY! Who's Hiroko?" Masaaki asks.
"My friend."
"Okay.... Why were you hiding it from us?"
"Because um... We're really good friends and I don't know... I feel like... I don't know... I kinda... Like her..." I sigh.
"Aand?"
"She lives in Hoenn and is kinda injured and I really wanna see her."
"I DO have Pokemon that can teleport." Isamu says.
"No, I don't think I can do that..."
"Why not?" Masaaki asks.
"Oh, she's gonna surprise him." Isamu says.
"How do you know?" I ask.
"Xatu." Isamu grins.
"I HATE YOU ISAMU!" I shout.
"Be happy. Your girlfriend's coming." Isamu teases.
"SHES NOT MY GIRLFRIEN- not yet. " I say but am cut off by Isamu.
"You better not say Xatu... " I say.
"K. Sure. I won't say that... NATU'S EVOLUTION !" Isamu says.
"I will strangle you!" I say.
"I'm just kidding!" He says.
"I feel bad for you... Hiroko is so angry all the time." He says.
"Yeah. I know right- WAIT. HOW DO YOU-XATU!!!" I say, but am cut off by Isamu again.
"HOW DID YOU- Xatu!" I am cut off by Isamu once again.
"Actually... When is she coming?" I ask, excited.
"In 3 months."
"3 MONTHS?!"
"NOPE. I'll tell you the right answer, if I get the required 'funds'."
"Eh?"
"PAYPHONE. By the way, phone means Isamu."
I sigh and say,
"How much?"
"2500 Pokedollars... Minimum."
"H-here's 2750..."
"Okay! Thanks! Bye!"
Isamu disappeared and Masaaki was just sitting on his bed, eating a bag of chips and blankly staring. Then, all of a sudden, he bursts out laughing when Isamu says,
"I'll tell you when she comes!"
"Oh, shut up." I mutter.
Akane walks into the room and slaps both boys on the face, then just leaves.
"I'm sleepy. Let's go to sleep."
They both lie down on their bed,
"Goodnight." Masaaki whispers.
"Night." Akira says.
