"See? I was right," Watt nodded, content, and sat down next
to Mira.
Mira, however, was preoccupied with looking through her bag. She
located her pokedex and scrolled through it. The Kanto dex was
complete, but every other one was not. Only the Alola and Kalos
ones were somewhat close.
She rested her head on her hand and scrolled through her storage
boxes. Dad completed most of them. Where are all of the
pokemon? Mira couldn't help but think.
"That's really neat. Back in Sinnoh, we had Pokewatches, and they
did a ton of cool stuff." Drew smiled, slightly rolling up her
sleeve to show her Pokewatch.
"Woah! Sinnoh sounds really cool!" Caitlyn grinned, Sol rolling his
eyes.
Jamie hummed as he looked around the kitchen before turning to
Tiger as he entered the kitchen. "So what are we making?" He mused
kindly.
Robert gently tapped Ro's knee to get her attention before
motioning to his pokewatch and toward the door. Ro nodded before
watching as Robert got up and left the house.
Mira looked over, overhearing Drew's conversation, and found
herself putting down the pokedex. She yawned again and saw Robert
leaving. Part of her wanted to follow, but another part was way too
comfy to get up.
"Sounds tricky." Mel agreed with a small yawn. She sat down and
pulled out her pokégear to scroll through it curiously. There
weren't any new updates, though Mia had spammed her with several
messages.
MEL THIS IS SERIOUS
She frowned and scrolled through the rest of the messages.
OKAY SO KUKUI GAVE ME A ROTOM-DEX BUT IM LIKE NINTY PERCENT SURE
IT HATES ME
She rolled her eyes fondly.
SO DO ME A HUGE FAVOR AND TAKE CARE OF HIM FOR A BIT PLEASE. ILL
ACTUALLY PAY YOU. IM BEGGING YOU.
She exchanged a look with Riu before hitting the call button,
because Mia I'm not taking your Rotom.
Marron nodded happily and smiled, scampering toward the stairs to
leap up them two a two a time, waiting for Raikou at the top,
flicking her small ears.
Tiger thought for a moment "hmm. Oh how about burgers? I bought
some ground beef for the others. I can show you how to make
homemade fries" he said kindly, and grabbed the ground beef from
the fridge. He gave a slight disgusted look when he grabbed it.
"Could you grab the garlic powder from the cabinet?" He asked and
nodded to one of the cabinets while he grabbed a bowl from a
cabinet by the fridge.
Raikou followed Marron up the stairs, and down the hall to Tiger's
room.
Jamie nodded and grabbed the garlic powder Tiger asked him to. "So
besides for the obvious, how has the year treated you?" He
questioned.
"Yeah Joseph, we shouldn't be more than a month. If we are I'll
call...Got to admit they are smart to attack now." Robert mused as
he talked on the pokegear.
"Yes, and until that day comes when you are able to do so, lock
them in an underground vault," Mira sighed. "...We both know
you can't let anyone get their hands on them."
Tiger was about to reply when the bag falling to the ground in the
other room startled him. "Hey is everything alright in there?"
Tiger asked and wiped some ground beef off his hands.
Mira gasped and her hands slapped over her mouth, eyes wide.
"D-Drew..." She started, but found she couldn't finish. Toka
mimicked her pose while Watt just stared, confused. A tear came
into her eye and she didn't reply to Tiger.
Mel winced and hung up on her sister, glancing at Drew and Mira.
"Uh. What exactly did you just smash?" She asked nervously, the
shattering noise not going unheard. Riu let out a small whine and
covered his ears.
Marron nudged the door to Tiger's room open and sprang inside.
"Hey, Cyndaquil!" She called cheerfully.
"The- Uh-" Mira couldn't keep herself from tears now, and shut her
eyes. Toka hugged her from behind while Watt jumped to the ground
again to sniff the bag.
Tiger sighed and walked out of the kitchen. He grabbed a towel on
his way out and wiped his hands clean. "What broke?" He asked
evenly and walked back into the living room.
Cyndaquil poked his head from where he sat on the shelf. A Pikachu
plushie fell to the ground and hit Marron on the head. "Whoops
sorry" Cyndaquil squeaked and looked down. Raikou barked a
greeting and jumped onto Tiger's bed to try and reach Cyndaquil.
