Twins of kalos (5th place in Adventure) PWA 2018

Chapter 7: Accessory.

I left school a while ago as I usually do to find dad's work place. Every so often, I would do this all the time, and nobody would know that a 5 year old had gone missing from a place where they have to keep an eye on the children at all times

I don't get to see my dad very often, and I often hear mom complaining on the phone to him that he should be home more often. Serena and I were always behind a wall, listening to the conversation. As small as we were, we weren't suppose to know what was going on. Serena was always confused about why mom was mad and why dad was away. I understood a lot for my age. As silent as I was, it was used in a way that helped my brain develop more than average

As time passed, Serena understood what the hatred was about. Mom was starting to hate dad, and so did Serena. They believe he was a lier and didn't care about our family. I took matters into my own hands and went to find dad on the very first day mom and dad started having major problems. This was during the time Serena didn't understand, and I wanted to make sure she understands that I believed in our father, so I escaped school as frequently as possible

The region of Sinnoh was rather large for a small girl such as myself. I heard where dad worked, and I went to find that very spot with research through my school's computer. Since I'm the only one in school who even knows how to use a computer properly and not only focus on computer games, the kids didn't suspect anything of me and continued playing as I snuck out on my own

Dad was a fashion agent, meaning that he would find clients and help them become successful as models or designers. Anything that had to do with fashion, he takes care of it.

The only way to get to his job sight was to walk through the route from Sandgem Town, the town that I lived, and find the tallest building in Jubilife City. Knowing that it was dangerous to go in the tall grass without a Pokémon, I tried my best to find shortcuts around them. Everything was all fine until I heard growling noises in a pitch black side of multiple trees tucked together

I can remember this exact moment was the time I became terrified of Pokémon. I never got over my fear, but it didn't stop me from visiting dad in secret every so often I can. Because my grades were so good, the teachers think I listen and study all the time, when in reality, it was a natural talent and I just got lucky to not get caught

My father was innocent, but at my youngest age, I still never spoke. After the divorce, I had to speak for my dad's sake in health. I couldn't tell mom or Serena, knowing it wasn't any use to explain why the divorce was a mistake and they should had believed in him more. It was already too late. I kept secrets through my life from everyone, even my agent who saved me from getting attacked in the route. Nobody knew a single secret I held... I knew how to hide my emotions that I actually did have, and it was easily seen by a sudden boy who suddenly came into my life and rescued it

I opened my eyes and noticed I was in a hospital room. A quick look around and I already spotted Calem sitting on a chair next to my bed, sitting while taking a nap. His head had stitches on it... it must've been a bigger hit on the head in the forest than I thought

Seeing the stitches, I quickly remembered what caused them. It happened back at that Santalune forest. We were being chased by those Beedrills... I held onto him for his protection while he was knocked out, and Fennekin came to our rescue.

I sat up and pulled on my hair in frustration. I'm so pathetic... Fennekin came all the way through the forest to save us. It looked at me in the eyes, wondering if I was okay. I couldn't thank it for going through the trouble... I was still afraid

I could had defended myself and Calem from those Beedrills as well if I wasn't so nervous to take out my own Pokémon. Why do I do this to myself? I nearly jumped when Fennekin hopped on my bed out of nowhere and sat far enough to not make me nervous. Even after it saved me, nothing changed...
