Tiger scratched the back of his head in embarrassment. "Sorry bout
that..." He said lowly. "Umm anyway I guess we have the rest of
today off" he said softly.
"I think we have school tomorrow" Tiger said partially to himself
and thought for a moment. Lion looked over, and nodded as he
remembered Tiger saying something about it.
"Three years on helping Elm in the lab, and you're going to school"
the trainer laughed jokingly.
"The only one I really want is the Fire one, and I've got to
finish the grand trial first before coming to that. It’s unlikely
that I'll find a Fire Z-Crystal lying around, so better do it the
'standard' way." Victor said. He saw Z-Crystals as nothing but
badges with a quirk to them.
"I've got the fireium z,.." Tiger said softly, and looked at the z
crystal on his bracelet. "Tapu Koko gave it to me when I helped him
out...before he was captured" he sighed.
"Speaking of captured, we were talking about that earlier." Mel
said. "We should really try and free the Tapu's soon. I'm surprised
people haven't noticed they're gone yet."
"Huh. Thank Arceus for Ivan," Mira blinked. Toka winced at the
mention of a Z-Crystal. "What? You don't-"
"No. No thank you," She shook her head. "Not my thing;
too much power."
"I never thought I'd ever hear a pokemon utter those words in my
lifetime," Amana grumbled. Char wasn't even listening, and had
resorted to kicking a rock around in circles.
"But anyway. As for the Tapus, we need to get them back soon.
They... Well, they're Alola's Ho-Oh. That's the best way to
describe it."
