Now reading: Chapter 87: Terra, Training, and tests from Hard Enough, a Action novel by Viva01.

Yolanda had been adamant that they et as early as possible. Terra, as a baby pokemon had other ideas and had promptly fallen asleep when Yolanda had picked her up causing the plan to be shifted back.

Yolanda had happily accepted the compromise and gone to bed with her new pokemon and starter. On the way to bed Id made sure to tap Flint on the shoulder. You probably need to get Forrest his starter as soon as possible seeing as Yolanda now has hers.

Flint nodded. Do you know what he wants?

An Onix from you, I said. Flint nodded and instead of turning to his room turned and began marching to the front door.

Ill be back in the morning he paused. If thats alright?

I blinked and realised that if he wanted to he could leave again. It would almost be like hed gone to get milk. I grunted. Be back by morning, I said, turning away and feeling my stomach tighten. If Flint pulled a going for milk now I pushed the thought down. I had just decided to trust him a bit. I could extend this small olive branch to him, couldnt I?

I nodded and pushed it aside. Co morning Id have an answer either way.

I lay down after checking that everyone was asleep and promptly fell into a ditative sleep. Rock Aura was perfect for slowing the body and forcing it into a sort of hibernation if you wanted to.

It wasnt my alarm that woke up the next morning but Yolanda kicking my door open.

Brock! Its morning! Terras eaten and done her business! Lets go let her et her big brother!

Lar!! cheered Terra happily.

I blinked at Yolanda and leaned over to glance at my alarm. It was an hour earlier than I usually woke up which made it earlier than early in the morning.

Yolanda coughed. I couldnt sleep? Sorry? I actually didnt know it was that earlyShe shifted on the spot and I couldnt fault her for her enthusiasm. I sat up and smacked my lips.

I need a minute to wake up a yawn escaped and I ran my tongue over my teeth. Id forgotten to brush them last night with all the excitent hadnt I? Urgh, yuk. I moved to my ensuite and ran so water to clear the sleep out of my eyes before I grabbed my toothbrush to scrub the gritty feeling off my teeth.

Ha! I knew you were lying! Yolanda said from where she was standing in the doorway. I blinked at her.

Whuh? I said intelligently. Yolandas eyes flicked to Sabrinas toothbrush and her pillow on my bed. Terra was sniffing around my room with the curiosity of a newborn.

Tar!? Larv! she said as she crawled under the bed and found so underwear that most certainly werent mine.

Yolanda smirked at and I rolled my eyes at her. What? I like to feel pretty? I said, digging deeper into the lie.

She pointed at . Yoooouuuu! Just admit those are Sabrinas and you lied! No way you wear girls clothes!

Im a complex man, dont limit ! I said, hiding my face in a towel lest my smirk give away.

Yolanda didnt say anything and when I straightened up she was looking at with a tilted head. Youve worn girl clothes?

There are a few restaurants and places around Kanto, let alone Hoenn, that charge cheaper als if you wear a dress. I wiped off the last of the water. Hadnt Ash worn a dress to challenge Erika in the cartoons?

Huh, Yolanda said before shaking her head. Confess! They are and were your girlfriend's! she said only to wince when she realised how loud she was being.

I huffed. Yeah alright, theyre Sabrinas. I knelt down and looked under the bed. Oh, she has a whole suitcase under there then I paused as I recalled sothing from last night. Oh she announced it last night to her Ralts didnt she

Yolanda giggled, her head bobbing up and down. Yeah! You only just realised? Yolanda knelt to see the suitcase. Wow. I swear that wasnt there last ti I looked.

When was that?

Yolanda didnt et my eyes. The last ti I was helpfully cleaning your room? She then coughed. So how long have you been dating Sabrina? she said, leaning forward.

Thats I an technically we were on break and I had said that one ti that I couldnt do it while Flint Did this an we were back together in Sabrinas eyes?

You two are good together! I approve! Sister approval is given for you to date Sabrina! she said with a nod.

I dragged a hand down my face and sighed. Thats not Urgh whatever. Yes! Were dating. Yolanda giggled and I pald her face causing her giggles to be muffled but not stopped. I huffed at her and released her, Co on, Ill grab so food to help wake up and then we can go get Titan up.

When we reached the kitchen we found Flint asleep on the countertop with a blanket around him. Yolanda smiled fondly and adjusted his blanket to cover him and I paused when I noticed the pokeball clutched in his hand. Looks like Forrest is going to have his starter pokemon.

Yolanda nodded happily as I scrounged for so food. The rummaging must have woken Munchlax up as he walked into the kitchen, yawning and blearingly investigating.

Munch?

Tar! said Terra as she popped out to surprise Munchlax who jerked back and landed on his backside. Terra giggled to herself while Munchlax grumbled.

I handed Munchlax a juicebox to help him get over it while I slurped up a breakfast shake that had feeling a little more awake. Right, lets go! I said, leading Yolanda out and inadvertently waking Flint up.

Huh?! Whats that? he said as he marched out.

Go to bed dad, Forrest wont wake up for another two hours, she said kindly before rushing after . I shut the door behind us and walked through the garden of sleeping Lileep before making my way to the cave system.

When we got outside the cave I hoisted Terra and Yolanda onto my back. No lights, youll startle the pokemon that are still asleep. Titan will wake up fine but Don and so of the electric Geodude will react badly to light at this hour.

Sorry! Yolanda said while wrapping up. I just patted her elbow and channelled dark energy to my eyes allowing to walk down the tunnels without issues.

Tar?! Larvitar said as she snapped her head up to look at . Huh, interesting, she could pick up on what I was doing? She watched curiously as we moved through the tunnels. I could probably have navigated them from mory at this point but with Rock pokemon a shift in the path was likely to happen from their passage so it wasnt a sure thing.

When we got to the lowest section I deposited Terra back into Yolandas arms as I had her stand off to the side. Alright, Im going to wake him up and then turn the lights on so you can see.

How did you see?! Yolanda whispered. I never knew you could do that!

Secret big brother power? I said teasingly.

Brock! Be Serious!

Hmmmm, secret but one that you can technically unlock if you and Terra form a close enough bond. Thats all Ill tell you for now.

I could see her thoughtfully looking at her pokemon as I stepped away. Yolanda, by gaining a Larvitar, had stepped onto a path Id already walked. Shed be able to avoid a lot of the pitfalls while getting my insight into her pokemon. If she wanted it that was I really hoped she did though because I had a few journals of notes that I could offer her.

I whistled a few tis to announce myself before I got too close to Titan. Bertha wasnt with him today, apparently choosing to sleep in her own cavern. Titan was sleeping on a slightly raised stone that ca up to my hip for his bed. When I whistled his eyes snapped open and I heard Yolandas breath hitch as his eye glead in the dark.

Hey Titan, its buddy. Sorry for waking you up so early but I have good news and a surprise!

Ty? he rumbled as he shifted into a more upright position.

Watch your eyes buddy. Im hitting the lights. I moved over to the side where a switch was located before flicking it. The light flickered on slowly but it still was enough to cause Titan and I to shake our heads as we adjusted.

Tar? he said, flicking a claw at his eyes to get rid of the gunk in them.

Tar? said a much smaller voice.

Titan blinked and tilted his head. I could see his sleeping mind comprehending the noise and the oddity of it but not matching it up to a pokemon he knew. He swivelled his head.

Tar?! He barked out, causing Yolanda to step into view with Terra clutched in her arms.

Terra wiggled as she spotted Titan and Yolanda almost dropped her only to kneel and deposit the little pokemon onto the ground. Titan stood as Terra waddled up to the base of the ledge to gaze up adoringly at Titan.

Taaaaaaaarrrrrrr! she said in awe.

Titan shifted, his body shaking to loosen up before he stepped off the edge. He did so carefully, his weight coming down gradually so as to not shake the earth with his passing. When he reached the sa floor as Terra he stood and looked her over.

She was tiny compared to him. As a baby pokemon she hadnt even reached the typical height of a normal Larvitar and seed like a tiny figurine as he stared down at her.

Taaaaaaaar! she said again grinning hugely.

Titan knelt and then lowered himself onto his belly so that his head was level with Terra. His head alone was bigger than her. He then extended his neck and sniffed her carefully. She giggled and tucked her head into her shoulders before leaning towards him and sniffing him back. She then darted forward and started to inspect the various parts of him while crying out in happiness. Titan shifted so that he could keep her in sight, his eyes were latched onto her and drinking her in like she was a wonder to behold.

Yolanda danced from foot to foot. Titan! et your little sister! Terra!

Titan glanced at Yolanda for a mont before smiling widely. I moved up and rubbed his head. Terra is the na of an ancient Earth Titaness.

Titan snapped his head to look from to Yolanda before he wiggled with glee which caused Terra to shriek in surprise. He stopped only to resu when Yolanda and Terra giggled at his antics.

He stood then and shifted about happily and barked his na out.

This caused Bertha and Knight to wake up and investigate, which drew them into sniffing the new baby pokemon. Terra laughed happily when Bertha held her aloft with one hand. Yolanda shifted nervously as Bertha lofted the little pokemon about and I chuckled as Yolanda fretted over her baby pokemon.

When I checked my watch it was only ten minutes before my normal wake up ti so I humd and looked up at Titan. Want to show off for your little sister this morning?

Titan clenched his claws and punched the air causing a small quake. Tyranitar! he barked fiercely before grinning towards a suddenly nervous Knight. Bertha laughed and gave Terra back to Yolanda.

Rhy! Rhy! Perior! she called as she jogged head of us. I humd. Well, looks like theyre not getting a nice calm song to wake up to this morning, I said casually as Bertha roared into the Ancient pokemons cavern causing Don to shriek in protest and a scuffle to break out. I clapped Knight and Titan on the flank. Escort Terra and Yolanda to the training area would you?

They nodded while I headed off to break up Don from trying to eat a laughing Bertha. Don wouldnt be able to hurt her and that would just enrage him more and make him harder to handle. Not that Bertha cared about that by the sound of her laughter.

I set about breaking them up and then marched up to et the rest of my bleary-eyed Elite team that were circled around Yolanda and Terra. Terra was once more squirming to escape Yolandas grip but my sister wasnt having that happen again now that all of my big pokemon were out and close by. I nodded approvingly.

Alright gang back it up! Give them so room! Titan! Start it off!!

Titan straightened up and barked out an order causing my pokemon to whirl about and start jogging towards a distant rock. Titan usually was at the back but I saw him sneak a Rock Polish before he sprinted to the rock much to the other pokemons shock.

He then sprinted back and bowled through them like pins at the bowling alley before hurtling back to Yolanda and Terra. I rolled my eyes at him and the others that were gaping at him. Soone is motivated! I shouted to the team.

Titan nodded and puffed out his chest as Terra cheered for him. He then proceeded to out wrestle Bertha, Onix, Sanchez, Knight, Shrek, and Hypnotoad. Hed then eyeballed Tide and the others only for them to square up on him with Tide giving a warning bark,a Hydro Pump held ready in his mouth. This forced Titan to stop and calm down.

Woah! Titans motivated! shouted Forrest as he walked around the plateau with a very young-looking Onix at his side. On his other side, Flint was walking with a pleased look on his face and a huge cup of coffee. He looked like hed been up most of the night judging by the bags under his eyes. I offered a nod before noticing that Challenger was also with them.

Challenger locked onto Sanchez who was sadly readjusting his iron sand moustache after the beatdown Titan had given him. She smirked and advanced, only for Titan to slide in front of her and lock claws with her. Challenger baulked at the new opponent only for Titan to not care and whip her around and hurl her away. He then adopted a hero pose.

Terra applauded Titan causing him to get a pleased smirk. Yolanda rely stared at Challenger, who was looking more than a little shocked at her instant loss. She hadnt even gotten a chance to say anything about a fight before shed found herself in one.

Gooooolem! said Sanchez as he shifted his moustache into a fake feminine haircut and swooned theatrically. Titan scowled at Sanchezs dramatics before Sanchez shifted his moustache back and slapped his knee at the joke.

Terra stopped clapping and giggled at their antics with Yolanda joining her.

I huffed. Alright big guy, why dont we let you really show off and get the most out of your motivation with so resistance training. Im not going to have an Elite team left otherwise. Selene fetch Chansey would you?

When Chansey arrived, she looked pleased at the battered appearance of my team. I rely pointed at Titan and made him move through a few fighting moves wed worked out for him. Gravity!

Titan instantly shifted downwards as the ground beneath him buckled. He kept his body unbent however and continued to move through the poses. His eyes sliding to Terra as she cheered him on. I snorted. Right, with that handled I think Ill see to so of my other pokemons training, I said aloud.

And I can do the sa for my pokemon! Forrest said happily, moving away and leading his Onix to start working on so maneuvers. I considered shifting my focus before shaking it off and moving about the rest of my pokemon to give instructions.

When I reached Onix and Scyther I had them play a ga of tag with Scyther having to only target markings I put on Onixs sides.

Both pokemon threw themselves into action and I nodded as Onix writhed to make Scyther work for his hits while Scyther had to work on his precision. Their ga went on for a few minutes before I was disrupted by a new voice announcing itself.

Tyranitar, the Armor Pokmon. Tyranitar has a heavily armoured body that can withstand powerful attacks and is able to crush a mountain with one hand, said a robotic voice that had looking away from my pokemon. I found Ash staring at Titan in awe as my starter continued to move through his work out with little Terra cheering him on. Yolanda was now looking much more impressed so I decided to give Titan a mont to catch his breath and have a drink.

Selene cut the gravity, Titan? Grab a drink! I called out, making him nod and march off to the side where he discretely took so huge lungfuls of air to recover from what had to have been an intense workout.

I moved over and patted him on the leg. Doing alright? Or still trying to be a hero?

Tyran! he said, snorting at . I shook my head. Well, now you can show off how good of a boss you are, I said before pointing him towards Don, Bertha who was trying to take over Terras attention along with Knight, Shin, and Zephyr. Titan barked at them and happily made them scatter.

I frowned, looking around only to find Don locked onto Pikachu who was sniffing the Stantler.

DON! I bellowed, making him startle and break off his flight so he didnt snatch up Pikachu. Ash blanched when he realised hed been too focussed on the deer. Stantler himself bucked in surprise and ran off making sigh.

Alright, I think you need a ti out if youre stalking like that.

Ash approached. Hahaha, thanks for that, he sure gave us a scare!

Yeah, sorry, he must have thought Pikachu would make for a good snack before breakfast.

Hahaha, Ash said as though Id told him a joke. I raised an eyebrow at him and he stopped laughing. Oh he said as he realised what I was saying.

I offered a shrug. Yeeeeaaaaah, Dons not what Id call dosticated or ta. He very much will hunt if hes feeling hungry. Thats why he gets fed twice a day usually.

Ash nodded loosely and I clapped him on the back. Dont let it bother you. How are you and Pikachu doing?

Good! But I was curious, how do I get Pikachu to fire off Thunderbolts like your Golem? he said pointing to where Sanchez was performing Thunder on Zephyr with his Steel Wing grounded into the earth.

Hmmm show your Thunderbolt? I asked, surprised that Pikachu could pull off such a move.

Pikachu, use Thunderbolt on that rock! Ash said, causing Pikachu to fire off a respectable lightning attack. I humd and made an again gesture that took Ash a second to work out. Go again, Pikachu! Thunderbolt!

When the attack was pretty much the sa I nodded. Id say your pokemon still hasnt reached the necessary power threshold for Thunderbolt. Its impressive for a Thundershock, but it falls a bit short of that next level. The move that Sanchez is using over there is Thunder, a move further along the power chart.

Power chart? Ash said, tilting his head.

I scratched my chin. You know how the big impressive moves are typically moves like Hyper Beam or Giga Impact? Ash blinked at cluelessly while Pikachu tilted his head, causing his ears to flop to the side. Misty and Greta whod been talking a small distance away stopped talking and started paying attention.

Right, well you typically have to work up to high power moves like Giga Impact or Hyper Beam. Its possible for it to be taught to pokemon early using Technical machines, but the results are almost always subpar without additional training. Its actually better to work along a chain of pokemon moves that lead into each other. Now for the sake of argunt and familiarity, Im going to use Giga Impact as an example. Giga Impact is a powerful normal-type move that hits really hard, however, what a lot of people dont understand is that it cos about from having a pokemon that knows Tackle.

I made a fist and slamd it into my palm, Tackle can then progress to Slam, or Body Slam, or even moves such as Double Edge. This trains the pokemon to throw itself into the attack while also building up energy channels for stronger moves. So pokemon moves that use similar parts of the body are also able to be strengthened with this type of training. Im doing sothing like that for Stantler over there, I said pointing towards my ditating deer pokemon.

Zephyr was inspecting him and nodding every now and then before offering advice.

Forrest, whod sidled up to listen in, jerked in surprise. Ive heard you talk about this before but what about the TM's you give out? Wont Mia and Silly Mouse be affected? And I know youve built up moves from TM before so what gives?

I raised a hand. Excellent point, Forrest. Now, what I said earlier only applies to pokemon that dont have trainers and have to build up pokemon moves the natural way. Trainers can funnel a pokemon towards certain moves and make so moves stronger. Technical Machines allow people to skip those steps and this can result in the pokemon move initially being weaker. That doesnt an you cant get the strength up to what would be seen naturally, however.

I held a hand up to forestall Forrest. How would you go about doing that?

Use the move lots? Ash said with a tilt of his head. Misty groaned only to stop when I nodded.

Thats one way, theres another you can use.

I was t with clueless expressions. Order Pikachu to build up the attack for a Thundershock towards that rock, but not fire it off.

Pikachu, use Thundershock but dont! Ash said, making grimace as Pikachu blinked before slowly building up an electrical charge that surged out of his body and zapped Ash. Ashs hair stood up straight but otherwise he was fine. That was weaker than his normal thundershocks Ash said.

Pikachus not used to building up a charge or stressing himself in this manner. It takes a bit of work but you can also train energies with a build-up and hold thod like we just tried. I whistled and Titan turned his head. Co over here and show off your Dark Hold move, I said.

Ty! barked Titan as he moved over. He drew in a breath and then exhaled as dark energy built up over his body only to remain there.

Oh wow its sort of giving chills to feel! Misty said.

I nodded. Yeah, this is one way of building up a pokemons special energy attacks. I humd Its also good for other tricks, I said pointedly towards Yolanda. Her eyes widened as she realised what I was alluding to before she nodded. I made a note that Id have to spend so ti with her Her, and maybe Missy. Missy had shown that she was capable enough and interested in learning more from .

Anyway, Mia is aware of this with Silly Mouse and has been working on it with the move I awarded her from day one. Her Thunder is going to be quite strong by the end of the circuit.

Not as strong as Pikachu and ! Ash declared before leading Pikachu off to practise the new form of training. Misty nodded with a thoughtful expression before wandering off herself. I rubbed my chin when she moved over to Tides area and released her Staryu and began practising with it.

I smiled towards Greta who finished writing her notes and likewise ran off to start working with Bulbasaur only to sheepishly co back. We dont have a move like that

Tackle is perfectly viable. Otherwise, try building up the strength of his Vine Whips. I pointed to where Chansey was standing with Bertha practising moving under Gravity. Try lifting so rocks with his vines in that area, just go slow alright?

Greta nodded and moved off to do just that. I considered the groups of pokemon and saw that they were all training well. I considered the various trainers I had just given an impromptu lecture to. I was tempted to go talk with Ash but he seed to be working through the lesson easily. Honestly, he was working through it the fastest with Pikachu working on eclectic attacks and also on doing a speedy tackle that inford he was trying to get Pikachu to learn Quick Attack. That or he was trying sothing else out. Perhaps hoping to make his Quick Attacks hit harder?

No, he had this lesson well in hand and as he released Butterfree to try other moves with another of his pokemon I decided against it. Instead, I turned to Misty who was looking frustrated.

Hey Misty, howre you doing? I said as I approached her.

Fine! she said through gritted teeth.

Hmmmm, I said neutrally as her Staryu tried to hold in the water attack only to end up spiralling off like a childrens spinning top. How did you word it?

Like Ash did! I didnt do anything different!

Ah, I said.

Misty scowled at . Whats that an?

Youre not Ash. Youre Misty. Pikachu is also not Staryu. Both of them will respond differently to different cues.

Misty considered this with a thoughtful nod. Staryu dont hold it in instead think about the flow of energy as building up through your body like a pool of water being filled!

I nodded, as Staryu cried out and repeated the move. This ti he held for ten seconds before a blast of water shot out. Looks like progress, I said with a smile.

Misty bead Yeah! Way to go Staryu! She bowed to . Thanks for that Brock!

No problem, say, while Im here, could I ask a question? I said, alluding to the real reason Id co over to talk with her.

Sure? she said.

How co you didnt apply to challenge my Gym alongside Ash?

Misty blinked. Oh, well I guess Im not really not doing a circuit I guess.

How co?

Misty fidgetted and glanced over at Ash. I waved a hand. He wont hear us, and Im aware of who your family is, Misty. Id have thought it would have been a good thing to complete the circuit.

Really? I just hadnt really considered it before Plus you know, I want to be a Gym Leader one day, wont it look bad if I fail against another Gym Leader?

Itd look worse if you never tried, I said. She was startled at that, having obviously not thought of what it might look like. She shot a look and I shrugged. But then again you could get away with it if you wanted. Its not sothing thats actually written anywhere. I was just surprised. I thought you wanted to take over the Gym from your sisters?

I do! They barely run it! When I take it over Ill give it the dedication it deserves! She fidgeted Howd you know about my goal anyway?

I have talked with your sisters, you know? Theyre aware of what you want. They ntioned in passing once that theyd drop things on you when you were ready.

Urgh, those stuck up bit she swallowed what she was going to say and coughed. Well yeah, theyre right. I want to be Gym Leader.

I nodded. Well going on a journey like this seems like the perfect chance to build yourself up. I pointed to her Staryu. You can build up a team, make so mistakes without it mattering too much, learn how other people do things and how you do things.

Misty considered that and I humd before deciding she needed so ti to think things over. Give it a thought. Id love to face a challenge from you. If you take over as Cerulean Gym Leader one day well have to have a match and you can be sure Ill bring my best pokemon. I pointedly looked towards Sanchez.

Misty turned her head towards Sanchez and watched as he unleashed a powerful Thunder and obliterated a boulder. Oh, she said.

I patted her on the back. Dont let that bother you though. Set goals and go from there. And feel free to ask questions. I get asked a ton already so dont feel like you need to hold back! I said while looking towards where Greta was working with her Bulbasaur.

Misty giggled at that and I moved off to work on a few others. When I made my way over to Stantler I found him looking a bit sad. Still struggling with it bud?

He nodded sadly and I gave him a few rubs. No problem. What Im asking of you is tough. Well keep working on it, but dont for a minute think Im putting the bla on you. Lets take a step back and work on holding the Calm Mind move in your head and horns for now. Well keep building from there, alright?

It would be worth My alarm started to blare and I looked down before grimacing. Alright gang! Thats enough for today! Lets get you all fed and then I need to get my own breakfast! I checked my transceiver and was relieved that I didnt have any Ace battles today. Thatd be rough with my pokemon tired from a harsh workout. Titan leaned against the rock wall and heaved in air having apparently continued to go all out. Terra was just out of sight and when she walked around and chirped Titan whirled around and adopted an upright pose that made it look like he was still willing and able.

I had no doubt about that. Terra had stars in her eyes when I returned and deposited Titans food bowl. She licked her lips and inched forward only for Titan to nudge so food her way. He then devoured the rest. Terra looked over to the others eating and Yolanda quickly grabbed her up.

No, you might be able to get away with it from Titan and Bertha but other pokemon wont like you stealing their food. Co on, Ill get you so food at ho.

I cupped my hands over my mouth. Ash! Misty! Greta! I cant leave you out here! Turn in for now. We can et up tomorrow for more training if you want! The others marched up quickly and I led them to the breakfast table for what was becoming a regular occurrence now.

Flint was thankfully already making breakfast which earned a nod of approval from . I started making up the kids' lunches when a thought occurred to . Hey Ash, Misty? Why did it take you so long to reach Pewter if you were just coming from Pallet town.

Ash shrunk into himself. I thought that Samurai knew what he was talking about

I tilted my head only for Greta to snort so milk out her nose. She hurriedly wiped her face with a napkin. That bug catcher cosplayer?! His advice was the opposite of good! Literally! You listened to that? Greta swept her attention from Ash to Misty who both didnt et her gaze.

Forrest leaned in. What did he say?

Ash squird before adopting a stern expression. The sun rises in the east and sets in the west! That ans if you keep the east to your left you will be heading north! he said with a pompous tone.

Misty tilted her head. Or was it the other way around? Keep East to your right?

Greta facepald and I chuckled. Forrest awkwardly tapped his fingers together. If he said the first thing he was wrong. If he said the second then he was right Uhmmm do you guys not have a compass?

Ash shrunk further into his seat and murmured sothing about Pikachu breaking it on their first day. I shook my head and made a note to give him an electric type resistant compass before he left Pewter.

Greta groaned. Urgh, I cant believe you listened to him! Gary and I had no problems ignoring that idiot! You should have been the sa!

Gary just got lucky! Ash said with a snarl before sitting back down. Most likely

I turned my attention to my schedule as I finished up making up the lunches for the kids. I started to switch into work mode as I considered what else I needed to do. Urgh, it was still only the middle of the week! I couldnt wait for the weekend!

I paused as I realised that no actually, this weekend was the Mayors ball. Wait, no Sabrina was going to co with . Sabrina who had. Hmmm, I needed to address this before it got away from .

Sabrinas little declaration had escaped last night. So she thought we were back together. I tapped my transceiver and sent a ssage. So were together right? I forgot to talk about that last night

Yes, she sent back. I glanced around expecting her to teleport near only for her not to appear. I shrugged and got through my morning chores and was about to walk into my office when Sabrina teleported to my side.

Oh hey Sabrina, is sothing She approached and put a finger on my lips, silencing .

I have been talking with Erika and she told I should make sure there is no doubt. Were dating, yes?

I nodded glancing down at the finger that was still on my lips.

Good, in that case I will pick you up for the ball this weekend. She nodded and was about to teleport away only for to grab her hand before she could.

No, I said. When she blinked I hurried to elaborate. No, you co over to my house and Ill organise sothing. We should make an entrance.

Her lips tilted upwards. Hmmm, very well, I look forward to what you co up with. she leaned back in and pecked on the cheek before teleporting away.

I rubbed at the spot where shed kissed and felt myself grow oddly hot. Alright, well good. That was good. Yes.

Damn. Now I needed to find sothing cooler than teleporting in for our entrance Urgh, there had to be sothing for that right?

That would be future Brocks problem. Right now I had to get to my first challenge of the day.

Still, it gave sothing to look forward to for the weekend. I just needed to reach it without too much going wrong.
