Lillian's POV

"HOME SWEET HOME!!!!!!"

Shouted Gold hugging the city sign.

"Why can't you be normal for once?!"

Begged Paul.

"NEVER BE NORMAL!!!! That's my catchphrase!!!"

Said Gold proudly.

"Who in your household knows anything about being normal?"

Asked Silver while laughing.

"Haha very funny! I know my adopted cousin is weird but-"

"Gladion's more normal than you'll ever be..."

Said Silver.

"Whatever!"

Said Gold.

I sighed and rolled my eyes at the two.

"Is there a time when those two aren't trying to kill each other?"

Asked Lexie while rolling her eyes.

"No not really there's never a dull moment at the Shingi household. When you move in it will all be chaos."

I said while sighing.

"Noted."

Said Lexie while giggling.

Lexie's Oshawott sat on her shoulder and his head had tested on Lexie's shoulder. He had fallen asleep on her shoulder.

"I'm surprised you haven't evolved your Oshawott yet even though it still super cute."

I said.

"Well Oshawott doesn't want to evolve and plus I like it the way it is."

Said Lexie proudly.

"Well if you want to challenge me you won't be able to beat me with just Oshawott alone."

I said.

"I have other Pokemon."

Said Lexie in an irritated tone.

"I'll admit Oshawott is a cutie the way it is. Wanna show me your team later? The last time we met you only had Oshawott."

I said.

"I was twelve and had just started my journey. And yes I'll show you my team. I know you've been through other regions before you came to Unova."

She said.

"I have. Before we met I've been to Kanto and Johto. I was only in Unova for a short time. I was there for a case and Amalie was there because she wanted to Participate in a Pokemon musical."

I said.

"Amalie was a breeder right?"

She asked.

"Yeah she was. She was a good breeder too. It doesn't matter anymore since she passed away but I've moved on at least I think I have... I still have dreams about when she died. It's still something that haunts me even though it happened about seven months or eight months ago. It still feels like yesterday that we were traveling together you know... Anyway enough talk about my deceased best friend let's talk about this boy you like. Is he cute? Is he charming? Is he sweet? Is he shy?"

I said while giggling.

"LILLIAN!!!!"

Said Lexie while blushing.

"Come on I want to know! Who is he Lex?!"

I asked.

"All I'm gonna tell you is that we've been best friends since we were babies and that he's very cute but he's the most awkward kid you'll ever meet because he's supper shy. Especially around girls. He's very tall. He's athletic. He has a mix of red and brown hair so he has Aburn hair and a few freckles sprinkled on the bridge of his nose. He has bright green eyes with a little bit of blue in them. They're like a turquoise color. He's very smart. He and I were always comparing in elementary school to see who got the higher test scores. He's also a very strong Pokemon trainer he and his partner Lucario are pretty much unbeatable we've never won it battle against them. He wants to be champion of Hoen one day."

Said Lexie.

"Why Hoen?"

I asked.

"He says that he loved the region. He had many fun adventures in Hoen so that's why."

Said Lexie.

"He'll have to beat Steven first. Steven's not very easy to beat."

I said.

"I know that you've beat him."

Said Lexie.

"I have but it wasn't an easy fight that's for sure."

I said.

"Yeah his partner Metagross looks incredibly strong. He can even use mega evolution."

Said Lexie.

"I even had a type advantage over him because I used Spark but we still had a very tough time but we managed to pull out another victory but it was a very close call. I wish this crush of your's the best of luck."

I said while winking at Lexie.

"Would you please stop with the meddling please?!"

Begged Lexie

"She won't stop. It's like asking Silvally to not eat the TV remote. It's never going to happen."

Said Aracel while chuckling.

"Silvally didn't eat the TV remote he almost did."

I said.

"That Pokemon must be hard to train."

Said Lexie.

"Yeah Gladion's having a tough time but he loves Silvally so at least he's patient with him. Lex i curious as to how you, Rj, VG, and Alec all know each other."

I said.

"We met in Unova once and he's the one who's trying to encourage me to challenge you again. We met again in Kalos and I'm the one who got them to Alola. At the time I was trying out Pokemon performances. I didn't win Kalos Queen I was beaten by Aria. I only wanted to try out Performing. I didn't like it as much as I loved competing Pokemon contests. I honestly like battling too as well as showing off and Pokemon contests are perfect for both. There was prize drawing Lumiose City and I had won four free plane tickets to Alola in a prize drawing. I decided to take Rj, Alec, and VGwith me since they said they wanted to help you with your case and I did too plus Rj and the others said they missed you too much and I wanted to see you too. I heard that you've succeeded and became the Champion of Kalos. Then you took the position of the Champion of Coordeleena. I can't believe that it's been four years. I've never gotten to congratulate you. Man... Time just flies by..."

Said Lexie.

"It sure does. Time stops for no one. So how has competing in Pokemon contests gone for you?"

I asked.

"I've never lost before but I've lost a circuit. But Now I can enter grand circuits and compete against other top coordinators but I can't seem to beat your sister Olive. She's fantastic."

Said Lexie.

"You've competed against Olive?"

Asked Aracel.

"Yeah she's an extremely tough opponent. What makes her so tough is that she's also the Champion of the Orre Region so she's a fantastic battler I mean what do you expect from the champion of the Orre region. My Pokemon couldn't even land a single move. She knocked my Pokemon with just two straight clean hits. I mean she's incredible. What's interesting though is that she told me that she's never beaten you in battle Lil."

Said Lexie.

"We've competed in tournaments. Her mega Loppuny had never stood a chance against my Charizard not once to her frustration. I will give her this at least she persistent."

I said while giggling.

"Yeah insists that one day she'll beat you. Not that she wants your title she wants that satisfaction of beating her big sister."

Said Lexie while giggling.

"Yeah she's always been like that even when we were kids we've competed for pretty much everything. Aracel you act like you know Olive do you know her?"

I asked.

"Well I've only heard about her and one day I wish that we could compete in a circuit. I heard she's good. I want to see how good she is."

Said Aracel.

"I'm surprised that you're not in Sinnoh right now competing or defending I your title.

Said Lexie.

"I left Lucian in charge while I was gone. Like I would ever leave Cynthia in charge I would if she weren't so mean to me all the time. She's hated me ever since I took her title. She's nice to everyone else just not me. Anyway I'm taking a break for about six months maybe even longer. I need to find a replacement for Arceus since he's left momentarily. He'll be back I know it but for now I have to find a replacement and plus you have no idea how much my uncle needs my help. Uncle Guzma's house looks like there was a gang lived there. He desperately needed help with decorating and I'm not leaving Coordeleana until I help him get him a girl friend. He's been too busy taking care of me since I was four so he never found a girlfriend I mean he left his my grandma and grandpa's house when he was eighteen just so he could take care of me because my dad was total whack job since my mom died in some horrible accident that my Uncle Guzma refuses to talk about. He's always looked out for me when my dad was only using me to create a new world but his plan failed and Uncle Guzma saved me from my own father when I four. I don't remember much about it at all. I didn't even remember that Cyrus was my father. I mean my whole family's messed up. Hunter J is my Aunt and my dad's sister and my uncle used to be the leader of Team Skull. Uncle Guzma was never a bad person he was just bitter and confused that's all. So I left my post as Champion momentarily to keep an eye on my uncle and make sure he doesn't get into trouble again and I also just need a break. I'm still mind blown about what happened to Colress. Arceus almost died that day. I'm still processing all of it you know. I bet you are too Lillian."

Said Aracel.

"Yeah I totally am. I mean how stupid can someone get. Selling their soul to the Inferno Pokemon of the underworld."

I said.

"So that's what happened to Colress?! I thought he was still in prison from when Ash, Iris and Cilan beat team Plasma.

Said Lexie.

"He was released but he never showed up for his parole and that made me feel very suspicious. Colress wasn't aloud to leave Unova until we saw that he had actaully changed and that he wouldn't cause chaos in another region but he fled to Alola without us knowing and he commuted murder. He killed Gladion's father in a car accident by messing with the engine in the car. Gladion's mother had gotten in a coma but survived. Colress had actaully been playing Lusamine the entire time saying that he only wanted to help the Aether Foundation when in reality he only wanted to take over the world by using all the ultra beasts with this ultra beast mind contirolling system he created. He was obsessed with power that he sold his soul to Purge and in return purge gave him this Skull amulet that allowed him to summon Darkrai. While Lucile knew about all of this Colress threatened to kill her children if she didn't cooperate. So she went along with it not telling Lusamine because of the deal they've made. Long story short Colress didn't follow up on his deal and tried to hurt Lillie and Gladion and Lusamine protected her mother from getting possessed by the Ultra Beasts so instead she was fused with UB01 and she was poisoned by it. So Lusamine almost died. And then Colress was fed up with Gladion and Lillie interfering with his plans so he tried to kill them using his Darkrai but Lucile jumped in front of them and took Darkrai's attack so she could save her children. She died protecting them. We had beaten Colress but he trapped, Silver, Calem, Lusamine and I in Ultra space he tried to kill Calem and I using one of the shards from one of Arceus's life that he had shattered on the ground in anger. Lusamine was able to S lea the amulet off of his neck when he dragged her back into the portal. She shattered on the ground and because the amulet was broken he could no longer control Darkrai therefore it ended their bargain however Colress still had to knew his end of the bargain. So he was dragged into the underworld by Darkrai and that was the end of it all."

I said.

Lexie stood there in silence.

"Wow just hearing that story gives me chills I can't imagine what experiencing it all felt like."

Said Lexie.

"It was something that's for sure."

I said.

"Yeah... It was definitely an interesting case right Lil?"

Asked Aracel.

"Yeah it sure was but it all ended well. Calem and I ended up dating because of it. He finally confessed his feeling to me that day since he almost lost me because of Colress trying to kill me."

I said.

"I guess in weird way it was romantic... I still can't get over that the fact that Colress sold his soul to Purge."

Said Lexie.

"We didn't think the police would believe so we made up the story that Ultra beasts went against Gina Ms they all attacks shim with their poison instantly killing him in ultra space. The police believed that story you can't tell anyone else."

I said.

"Got it."

Said Lexie.

"So hey Lillian quick question since we're back I town are we going back to our house?"

Asked Gold.

"No gold we've been over this."

I said.

"Well can we go over it again? I'm still confused."

Said Gold.

"He never pays attention why does this not surprise me?!"

Said Silver while sighing.

"Okay Gold here's the plan. We're staying in a hotel tonight and tomorrow. On Gladion's birthday we're going to get everything together. Everyone who hasn't bought him a gift yet will all go to get his gifts while the rest of us who have already gotten their gifts will go and pick up the cake the decorations and everything else. Guzma is going to keep Gladion busy by having him help him move furniture because all of the stuff that she ordered is coming in today and tomorrow. Aracel, Selene, Uncle Garret, Lexie, and I are going to buy Lusamine the essentials like clothes and stuff since she doesn't have any. We're also going to meet, Amber, and everyone else at the mall and we'll help Lusamine get what she needs. I've already gotten Gladion a gift and Lexie picked up her gift for him in Alola. Gold you're are in charge of picking up the cake from Cilan's bakery/resteraunt do not screw this up! Silver and Gary are going to pick up the gifts that they ordered for Gladion. VG and Conway are going to make sure that the decorations work right and I mean the lights and stuff and technology is their specialty. Paul is going to go with Luke and Alain to help pick out their gifts for Gladion's gift since Luke and Alain haven't got anything for him yet. Rj, Calem, Lucas Hayden, Thania, Kannai, Lei and Iona are going to meet Lillie and they're going to help Guzma keep Gladion busy and distracted. Alec is going to be a back up distraction just in case Gladion tries to go back to house. Under any circumstance Gladion has to be out of the house for this to work so Alec your job is vital! Brandon and Reggie are in charge of clean up duty so that when Ash and Serena get here, the house won't look like a war zone. Ash and Serena will try to get here before the party. They've already picked up Gladion's gift. Does everyone know what they're doing?"

I asked.

They all nodded and smiled.

"Good let's check into the hotel tomorrow will be a very busy day so everyone try to get a lot of sleep. Everyone got it?"

I asked.

Everyone cheered and smiled.

"Great let's get back to the hotel and check in!"

I said.

They all nodded and we headed to hotel for check in. I was hoping that this would run smoothly and that everything would go according to plan.
