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

Chapter 8: Skates.

It took awhile of no sleep, luckily I was asleep for a whole day that I didn't have the need to sleep while I was searching for the people who took my Pokémon and Viola's camera, but I finally made it back to Viola's studio and walked inside after getting stared at by many people walking by

Viola, Calem, a police officer, and another woman I never seen before were talking in the middle of the studio before hearing the automatic doors open. They saw me carrying a pair of skates, covered in light blood and had a bit of my hair messy out my scarf. Calem was the first to approach with a serious look on his face

"Where the hell were you?" I only stared at him "I've been looking for you all night! You just suddenly disappeared from the hospital and I had to hear from Viola that you went off to find a small gang of people who snatch things? Do you have any idea what could had happened to you? You don't know this region, and you jumped into a scenario where you could have gotten hurt!" I was a bit surprised that he was talking down at me, which doesn't happen at all with me. Because I was relieved that I found my Banette, I wasn't going to snap at him for doing so

"You don't know me, you don't know what I'm capable of" He kept staring at my calm expression as I threw Viola her camera back to her "here's your camera back"

"W-what did you do..? You're all bloody" I looked at my arms

"Oh... so I am" I shook it off like it was going to do something "anyways, if you want to know where the people responsible for this crime are, check the old skating ring on the other side of the city" the officer rushed outside as I said this. Calem and Viola were just staring at me. Viola looked more horrified and worried than how Calem looked, which was unreadable

"Sorry I took so long" I took B from my bag and cuddled it against my cheek "I couldn't let them have my little accessory" B moaned in its sleep

"What did you do to have blood on you?" Viola nervously asked again

"You don't want to know..." Calem sighed and offered his hand, confusing me

"You're a lot of trouble, aren't you?" I huffed and took his hand, thinking he was going to take me somewhere. He looked at Viola and nodded. Understanding, she lead us to the back of the studio surrounded by so many cool looking pictures of Pokémon. They were very beautiful...

"You sound like my agent" I snorted, a little amused "you let me join you on this search in order for me to understand more of this region just a little bit, and I left you without saying anything" he didn't say anything. I looked at his hand holding my slightly bloody one, not even affected that I was covered in someone else's fluids

"Shauna and the others went on ahead. I told them I was going to stay with you" I sighed, walking up some stair cases to a normal looking home. So not only is this building a studio and a gym, it's a home

"Don't worry, since I'm a fast learner, I'll be able to get out your hair pretty soon"

"That's not the point" huh? I looked at him to at least find a way to understand what he meant, but he just looked forward, gripping on my hand firmly

"You can take a shower in here" Viola pointed me to the restroom. I peaked over at the woman behind me, staring at me hard. I tried ignoring it the whole time, but she was getting closer "Alexa... stop that, you're scaring her" Viola sweat dropped "I know, I thought the same thing" Alexa... I looked at her surprised

"Oh! I'm sorry, I just feel like I grabbed a interesting scoop! Can I interview you, dear?" She asked politely. I looked way, walking the the restroom

"No" I slammed the door shut and sat on the floor, looking at the skates I had in my hands

"Why not!? You single handedly beaten the Skating Rascals! How did you do it?!" Her voice sounded just like the reporter who snuck into the building and begged a interview from outside my penthouse door
