A New Start As A Trainer/ Chapter 16: A Battle Before We Leave
#16 of A New Start As A Trainer
Hey guys, I have another chapter of Lucas' journey: unfortunately this is the last collab between me and TX for a while. That doesn't mean we won't do it again, this was too much fun to NOT do! Well, hope you enjoy this chapter!

What everyone saw in the hotel room, well...... it didn't look like one any more. What they see was the entire room destroyed. Everything was in a complete mess; furniture's fallen over, bed sheets all over the floor, walls mostly burned. They couldn't have come at the worse time. Not only that the room was a wreck, but they knew someone had to pay for this damage. Both trainers had a feeling it's going to be them in the end. They hoped that their trouble makers better had an excuse.
"Ha! Now I gotcha!" The female aura Pokemon said while holding the frightened Kirlia in her paws, growling in front of his face.
"KIRLIA!" Screamed Lucas.
"Lucario! What's going on here?!" Yelled David. Both Pokémon froze in place to see their trainers standing in the doorway. They looked at each other and went red, obviously embarrassed for what they did.
David didn't know what to do, but all he knew was that he's going to give the female Lucario an ear full. Was he really surprised from all of this? Sadly to say...... he isn't.
Lucario then quickly dropped the physic Pokemon, earning a loud thud as Kirlia rubbed his behind, but the aura Pokemon wasn't concerned for that. At the sight of a familiar trainer, that instantly got Lucario's attention.
"David!" She cried cheerily. She then ran right towards the trainer, jumped up and wrapped her arms around him. "You have no idea how much I missed you." She said while nuzzling her head into David's neck.
"Well I certainly didn't." Latios mumbled under his breath, but got punched in the arm by his red Eon sister. Latios turned and looked at his Eon sister and wasn't paying attention to the situation at hand as he started to argue with her, and then she then argued back. While that was happening, Lucas' Lucario comes in and tries to stop them from their small fighting.
"Uhh, okay?" David said awkwardly, patting Lucario on the back. 'I didn't expect that to happen.' The trainer thought. One minute Lucario was all pisses off at Kirlia for some reason, then when he showed up she immediately got happy...... weird. He realizes that Lucario was still giving him affection as she kept continuing her nuzzles, making him slightly blush. This didn't go unnoticed from the blue Eon Pokemon, staring daggers at the canine Pokemon before arguing back with Latias.
"So what happened here?" Lucas came in as he walk up to the sitting Kirlia, kneeling next to him.
"It wasn't my fault, I swear! It was her!" The physic Pokemon panicked and pointed towards the David's Lucario, "She's the one who started it she......s-she......." He couldn't finish as he trembled of what happened earlier this morning.
..........
Flashback from this morning......
"Aw man......the what fuck did I eat last night?" Asked Kirlia, clutching his stomach. Lucario couldn't help but laugh to herself as she nearly fell backwards from her spot on the window. The Psychic Pokémon looked at her and had a feeling she had something to do with this.
"Did you have something to do with this?!" He yelled, marching over to the female canine.
"Yeah...... maybe." She replied coolly, trying to stifle her obvious laughter.
"What did you do?!"
"Spit in your mouth *laughs out loud!*" The minute she finished Kirlia felt queasy again, but held on to his lunch. He got extremely mad now, so he thought it would be funny if he "helped" Lucario wash up after last night. He used Psychic on the water in the sink from the bathroom. The chunk of water above the Aura Pokémon and let the water that gathered up fall on her. She was immediately drenched to the bone by the sudden cold water that "mysteriously" fell on her. Kirlia doubled over in laughter from this and that made Lucario pissed.
"Oh, you wanna go?! Well, bring it ballerina boy!" She said, getting ready to pounce.
"BALLERINA BOY?! Oh, it's on!!" He said getting ready to attack too; they wouldn't use moves, just bare fists.
..........
After an hour of fighting they left the room in tatters: things across the room, tables and chair turned-over, it looked like a tornado hit. Kirlia started to realize that even though he had the advantage when in Pokémon moves, he sucked at hand-to-hand fighting so he started to run. But due to Lucario's natural speed it was no trouble capturing him.
"Ha! Now I gotcha!" The female aura Pokemon said while holding the frightened Kirlia in her paws, growling in front of his face.
End of Flashback
..........
"So what happened, Kirlia?" Lucas said softly while rubbing the physic Pokemon's shoulder, trying to reassure him.
"She...... she spit in my mouth while I was sleeping!" Kirlia manages to say, glaring at the one who did that to him. Lucario glared back for a split second before turning back to David and gives him an innocent look that even a heartless person would find that adorable.
"Why I don't know what he is talking about David." She said, pulling herself closer to the trainer and licked his cheek, "I could never do such a thing." The aura Pokemon finished while looking at the flushed trainer with half lid eyes.
"Uhh...... I uhh." David couldn't talk at that point. What was he even suppose to say after that? With her body close to his, literally touching. Her alluring ruby red eyes itself made him speechless on the spot. He cursed himself, 'Damn her and her charms.' He thought with frustration, his blush more visible within ever second.
"Ahem!" Latios coughed out between his argument, snapping David back to reality.
"Are y-you telling the truth Lucario?" The trainer manages to say in front of the Aura Pokemon.
"Like hell that's true!" The mad Kirlia cuts in, "She spit in my mouth when I was asleep so while she was laughing about it. I used Psychic to make water from the sink to get her wet. She got pissed and wanted to fight and I guess....... well, you can see what happened."
"You two know, there IS a better way to vent out your anger." Said David while trying to pull himself away from the female Lucario's grasps.
Lucas thought about what David said for a second, and then got an idea, "You two are still mad at each other, right?" He asked. Both Pokémon looked at his way and nodded; just what he expected. "Great! We can have a friendly battle, so you two can let off that steam!" David, Lucario, and Kirlia were caught off guard by this. Them having a battle?
David gave it some thought, "Hmmm...... that DOES sound like a good idea. Battling may help with settling your differences." He said. 'Plus, I might get to see this guy's moves. See how he thinks and works.' The trainer thought.
"What are you guys talking about?" Asked Latios, entering the room. A few seconds ago, Lucas' Lucario finally breaks the fight between the two Eon siblings. The blue Eon Pokemon looked around the room and was surprisingly impressed at the amount of damage the two Pokemon did previously.
"Yeah, we want to know too....." Spoke Lucas' Lucario and Latias as they entered as well. They both whistle at the sight of the room, and before they had the chance to ask questions, David said to answer them, "Kirlia and my Lucario got into a fight, now me and Lucas are going to have a battle so they can let out their anger."
"Oh...... okay." Was their answer.
..........
(Lucas's POV)
We went outside into the street and got at the right distance.
I yelled out the terms, "Okay so it's a 1-on-1 battle with Kirlia and Lucario, that right?"
"Just about, yeah."
"Okay, I'll start us out. Let's go Kirlia!" I shouted, throwing out his Pokeball. Kirlia was unleashed in a bright white beam.
"Alright now me, go Lucario!" Shouted David as he threw his Pokeball, letting out the female Lucario. Since this was my first battle with my Kirlia, I thought I should know ALL of his moves. I brought out, saying "One sec" to David, and tapped the moves indicator on my PokeDex. I highlighted my Pokemon and his moves appeared. He knew Magical Leaf, Psychic, Recover, and Double Team, pretty good for a Kirlia. I checked his level and was surprised; he was a shocking Level 25. At a level 20 he should have evolved. I closed my PD and directed my attention towards the battle.
I yelled to David, "I'm ready! You can have the first move!"
"Cool! Okay Lucario, use Aura Sphere!" Said my opponent. The female Pokemon charged up a blue ball and threw it towards Kirlia.
"Dodge it by using Double Team!" I retaliated. Kirlia spun around and made duplicates of himself. The Aura Sphere sailed through one of the duplicates, giving me the chance to launch an attack.
"Now, Magical Leaf!" Kirlia tossed his arms up, letting out multi-colored leaves, and flung them forward. The leaves rocketed at the Lucario, who put her arm in front of her to protect her face.
..........
(David's POV)
"Wow, this kid is actually pretty good." I meant it. I don't think I have ever faced an opponent this skilled in battle. I had to think on my feet. I revised over Lucario's move really quickly in my head, then thought of something.
"Lucario, Bone Rush! Use it to deflect the leaves!" Soon Lucario jumped into the air, made an aqua-colored bone and began spinning it in between her digits. The leaves grazed off the bone, falling to the ground. I soon heard a new command from my opponent.
"Kirlia, Psychic!" Not good, that was the same move that would have knocked out Lucas' Lucario. I have to think of something...... that's it!
"Force Palm Lucario!" I commanded. Lucario manages to run to Kirlia before he could use Physic, but the Aura Pokemon wasn't using Force Palm though. She was punching and kicking...... I thought about it for a sec then heard Lucas shout at me.
"David! Your Lucario, she using Close Combat!"
'She's what?! That would mean she has another move now!' I thought to myself, perfect! I saw her hit Kirlia, and was getting a pretty good beating. He was then sent flying into the air and fell hard onto the ground.
"Kirlia!"
..........
(Normal POV)
As Kirlia struggled to get up, Lucas thought now was the time to use the move he was hoping he didn't have to use so soon.
"Kirlia, Recover!" The Psychic Pokemon got to his feet and began to highlight himself in a light blue glow, taking away half of the damage he just took. David, also worried this could turn into a problem, saw this as a chance for a direct attack and yelled out his next order.
"Lucario, now's your chance use Force Palm!" Lucario ran towards the standing Kirlia, pressure building in her paw. Lucas got scared now and told Kirlia to, "Dodge it, cut off the move and get out of the way!" And it was a close shave. Kirlia fell to his knees, and Lucas knew he couldn't win...... but at least he would go out with a bang.
"Kirlia, this is it use Psychic!" Kirlia got back as far as he could and began to concentrate. David saw the delay as a chance to end this.
"Lucario, finish off with Close Combat!" The female Pokemon began to run towards the Kirlia, but stopped mid-way for some reason as she saw the Physic Pokemon began to show a blue highlight, but not from a move. Lucas brought his attention away from the attacking Pokemon and placed it at his glowing Pokemon, thinking that he was sure that he said to use Psychic and not Recover. He looked closer and saw that the light was white, not blue, 'Is he really....?' Thought the trainer. The shape of Kirlia began to reform. The arms becoming longer, the height increasing.... It was spectacular! After a few more seconds the light dispensed and showed a Gallade, stumping, and amazing as everybody kept watching.
"Kirlia, you evolved into a Gallade! And without a Dawn Stone too!" Cried Lucas as he ran towards him. The newly evolved Pokemon just looked at himself, not knowing what actually happened.
"What- what happen?" He asked, shocked by the sudden deepness of his voice. Lucas actually jumped into Gallade's arms and Gallade caught him, but put him back down quickly.
Lucas explained what happened, "You evolved! And into a Gallade WITHOUT a stone too!" All the Pokemon on the sidelines were shocked by the sight of an irregular evolution. They all knew that Kirlia was one of those Pokemon that evolved into a certain Pokemon with a stone.
"Hey! Sorry to interrupt, but we WERE in the middle of a battle!" Yelled Lucario, she wanted to KO that Kirlia.... knocking out a Gallade would be MUCH more pleasing.
"Sorry, sorry. Your right, let's go!" Said Lucas as he then turned to Gallade. "Ready to end this Gallade?"
"Yeah, you know it!" Said Gallade as he ran up to Lucario.
..........
(Later.....)
This battle was going for almost an hour now. Both Pokemon showing their fatigue, but kept battling. Neither one shows no sign of defeat as they fought their opponent with determination. Their battle was literally going back and forth. If one attacks, the other would counter it and attack back.
'Dammit! This is going nowhere!' David thought to himself in anger. Whatever he ordered, Lucas would answer back and his Gallade would counter whatever Lucario throws at him, and that was frustrating him.
'Man, this Lucario won't stay down.' Lucas thought, feeling slightly irritated. Whenever his Gallade would counter an attack from Lucario, she always comes right back.
This battle could go either way. It's just a matter of time if one of them screws up. Or either their exhaustion might beat them to the punch.
"This is a really good battle, I'm surprised that Lucario is still going." Latias commented at the sidelines with everyone else.
"Yeah this is a very impressive battle, but I'm not surprised that David's Lucario is still going." Lucas' Lucario said.
"What do you mean?" Latias asked, turning her attention to the other Lucario along with Latios and Treecko.
The male Aura Pokemon crossed his arms, "Well we Lucario are very prideful Pokemon, especially in battle. So Kirl- I mean Gallade might have a hard time. But then again I've heard that Gallade is a tough Pokemon to beat since they're good at swordsmanship with the blades on their elbows. So this could go either way for one of them."
They all nodded from Lucario's statement and turned their attention back on the battle.
Right now both Gallade and Lucario jumped away from each other, both panting in exhaustion. They have just been doing basically a fist and sword-like fight. Lucario using the spikes on her paw and Gallade using his blades on his elbows. But now that they broke apart, they were both sweating and panting.
Both trainers noticed this and David was the one who talked first, "Should we just stop? I mean this is going on forever. If we keep going our Pokemon's are going to be too tired to even stand up." He said while seeing Lucario in front of him wheezing and sweating like crazy.
Lucas knew this wouldn't end either, but he didn't want to end the battle as a tie. Although seeing Gallade looking very exhausted, he might consider it. Even his legs were starting to shake, looking like he was about to collapse.
"*sigh*...... alright we'll stop." Lucas said while walking up to Gallade, "Are you still mad at Lucario?" He asked while placing a hand on his shoulder.
"*pant-pant* No...... not really." The Blade Pokemon said under his breath. Even if he was still mad, he's just too tired to battle nor that he cared anymore why he was mad at the Aura Pokemon.
"So are you feeling better?" David asked as he went up to the female Lucario. The Aura Pokemon only nodded while still panting. She had to admit to herself that this battle was probably the most difficult and exhausting battle she had ever endured. She can't deny herself that she felt more respect for Gallade now. The way he fought so fluently was remarkable, and that he was able to keep up her. Heck he might of surpassed her a couple of times. She knows that she may be giving Gallade too much credit, but she can't refuse that most of it was true.
It was then that both trainers and Pokemon walked up to each other face to face. They shook hands and paws with one another, feeling more respect for each other.
"That was a great battle David." Lucas said while still grasping the other trainer's hand.
He nodded, "Yeah that was probably the most difficult battle I'd faced so far." He complimented.
"Even if it was a tie it was still a good battle, and it was just a friendly one too so no hard feelings here." Lucas stated and David nodded in agreement.
"Good battle Lucario, you did very well." Gallade said in a gentlemen tone.
"Same goes for you, but next time we battle I'm going to win." The Aura Pokemon said while gripping Gallade's paw more tighter.
The Blade Pokemon only chuckled at this, "We'll see when we battle again."
"Well I guess we'll head to the Pokemon Center now." David declared to everyone.
"Yeah sure, Gallade you can rest in here for now." Lucas said as he pulled out his Pokeball and sends the Blade Pokemon in his Pokeball with a beam of red light.
"Lucario you might as wel-"
Lucario cut him off, "David can..... can you carry me?" She asked the trainer with a small blush on her face.
Now this caught David off guard, "W-Well I.... I uhh." Now this was the second time today that the Aura Pokemon made him speechless again. What the female Lucario did next made it seem worse.
She walked up to him and said, "Please David...... for me?" With puppy dog eyes as her ears were folded back along with a small pout.
"Alright-alright! Just stop giving me that look okay?!" The trainer whispers harshly to Lucario while again having a blush.
"Yay!" Lucario cheered, and before David could give her a piggy-back, she beat him to the punch. The Aura Pokemon immediately jumped and wrapped her arms around the trainer's neck, making him having to carry her bridal style.
With that everyone headed for the Center.
..........
On their way to the Center everyone was talking about the battle between David's Lucario and Gallade. Latias and Treecko, who's on her back, were behind the group with Lucas and his Lucario, complimenting him on how impressive he was battling against David.
Latios on the other hand was in front with David while at the same time keeping his eye on a certain female Aura Pokemon.
"You did great love." Latios said, nuzzling his lover's neck with a purr.
"Thanks Latios." David replied with a smile, feeling his lover's soft cool feathers against his skin.
"What about me? I did great too, right?" Lucario asked smoothly. She then lean up and gave the trainer a good and slow lick on his cheek, making him go wide eyed for a few seconds before shaking the weird feeling.
"Yeah, you did good too." The trainer said awkwardly and paid his attention back on getting to the Center.
When David wasn't looking, Latios gave the Aura Pokemon a death glare for ruining his small moment with his lover. Lucario just smirk back at the angry Eon Pokemon and the snuggle her face into the trainer's chest as she was still being carried.
..........
Once everyone arrived at the Center, both Gallade and David's Lucario got healed up, along with everyone else getting checkups. And that Gallade was now out of his Pokeball looking good as new.
After about ten minutes later, they all went back to the hotel Lucas was staying that morning. They have to be there since both David and Lucas had to pay the damages. Luckily the amount of damage they had to pay wasn't as much as they thought it would so that was a relive for both trainers.
"So where do you think you're going to go now?" David asked Lucas while they were outside the hotel, along with everyone else.
"I dunno..... probably head to Oreburgh, why? You guys are not coming with us?" Lucas said, feeling a little disappointed, and he just got to know them too.
David shook his head, "Sorry, but no." But he added, "Although I know we'll see each other again in the future."
"But why don't you guys want to come with us?" Lucas' Lucario asked as well as David's companions gave him a questionable look, also not knowing why.
"Well the thing is...... you guys should have your own adventures with your family." David explained, indicating all three of them (Lucas, Lucario, and Gallade). "And I should have my adventures with mine." He said while smiling at all of his companions, each smiling back.
Lucas nodded at this, "I guess I can understand that, but we're still a family all together, right?"
"Of course we are....... Oh I totally forgot!" David exclaimed while reaching for his Pokedex.
"We can contact each other with our Pokedex!"
"Oh yeah we can!" Lucas brightened up as he grabbed his Pokedex as well.
After getting each other's contact links into their Pokedex they quickly put them away in their pockets and hugged each other while everyone else gave out hugs or paw shakes for the last time before they will meet up again.
"Well it was nice meeting you David. I know we'll meet up again." Lucas said while patting the other trainer on the back.
David nodded, "We will."
So with that Lucas, Lucario, and Gallade all waved goodbye before heading to the direction of route 203 that would lead to Oreburgh City.
David and his companions all waved until they couldn't see the sight of them anymore.
"Well I guess that's it then." The trainer said while putting his hands on his sides while having a soft smile placed on his face.
"Mr. Cheng! You still need to clean up the damages!" The clerk yelled from inside the hotel.
The trainer instantly frowned at this, "Oh boy." He mumbled before he yells back, "Yeah we're coming!"
Then everyone else went in so they can help out. David paused for a second as he looked back at where Lucas and his companions went off. He can't help that he misses them already, but he knows that they'll meet up again later on in the road. He just wonders what new companions Lucas was going to have once they meet again. David also wonders himself what new Pokemon will be part of his family.
So David then went in the hotel with his companions as the late afternoon sun beamed across the city of Jubilife.
..........
So, what do ya think:
What will happen now that Lucas and David are parting ways? I don't know about you, but I am tired....... see ya later guys: promise I will bring back another chapter!
