Pokémon: Pink Paradise

Chapter 9: Song•

Selena gasped loudly when feeling a pair of lips pressing on the back of her neck. Reality hit her like a bullet and she released her aura to knock off who ever was holding her. She turned around and flinched at who she was staring at rubbing on his butt in pain

"Xavier?" The Kaloean young trainer looked up at her with a smile. Another familiar aura came running

"Xavier! What's the meaning of you running off like that!?" Yvonne approached with a angered face. Selena cupped her mouth before she was recognized by her old friend "Selena?" The two stared at each other before jumping into a hug "oh my goodness! It's been so long! I can't believe we ran into you here!" Xavier stood up with a smirk. Selena looked at him a little shock. Wasn't he a shy little thing who was afraid of paparazzi and the public when she first met him a few years back? These two and a few others were the only set of friends that didn't know the others

"It's a shock to see the both of you here" she glared at Xavier, who held his stomach in pain but kept a smile on his face "but why did you dare pull that stunt? Didn't you know I could kill you?" He nodded

"I think you're killing me right now" he groaned. She huffed, looking away

"Excuse him. Believe it or not, he isn't the same loser he was before" Yvonne giggled

"Hey" he pouted and took Selena's hands to lean close to her face. She blinked confused "oh mi amour, how long had it been since I last saw those beautiful eyes of yours?" She sweat dropped, not use to this new Xavier "you don't know how happy I am. For some reason I heard your voice from our room inside the hotel... and what a lovely voice it is" she flinched. No way... her power lure this guy here!? From inside a building that's not even close to where they are now!?

"S-Selena..." Lillie pointed at Hau getting pulled back by Kukui like he wanted to fight Xavier "I... think your power leaked" Selena stared confused at how differently her friends are behaving. She grew uncomfortable and pulled the two all the way to the hotel with everyone else following her

"How dare you touch her like that!? She's mine!" Hau shouted

"Who are you to take my woman away from me? I've known her longer!" Xavier huffed. She already grew annoyed and started yelling

"Shut up!" Just like that, their love spell seem to vanish, having them look around in confusion "man, is that seriously my new power? How annoying!"

"What power?" Hau asked

"Looks like that new power could be used make a love spell with your voice! Like a mermaid! Or a siren" Yvonne gasped

"Oh wow! How magical and... a little creepy" Lillie sweat dropped. Selena slumped on a chair "Alola, I'm Lillie!" Yvonne smiled

"Hi! I mean, Alola! I'm Yvonne! And this is Xavier!" Xavier could be seen facing a wall, completely red on his face like he was embarrassed about what he's done "we both came here from Kalos on vacation, but also research! I'm a professor and Xavier there is believe it or not... champion!" Selena cupped her mouth. Yvonne is a professor? Wasn't her dream to be a Professional Sky trainer? And Xavier? he was titled best trainer in Kalos, now he's champion? What a big accomplishment

"Congratulations" Selena said. Xavier walked over with his head down

"Thanks... and I'm sorry for my sudden action. I wasn't thinking. My mind was only half blank" he admitted

"Don't you already have a power to attract Pokémon and people?" Yvonne asked

"Well attraction may only be a gift, not a power" Hau informed "I still don't know what's going on, but Alola! I'm Hau!" The Kaloeans bowed for a greeting
