Miyah grinned. “Or perhaps you know our last name because of
me, the best hockey player west of Three Island?” She
offered. Knowing that wasn’t it, she cleared her throat. “Yeah, our
parents are kinda famous.”
Max laughed in amusement at what Miyah said. He grinned, "no it
might be because of Miyah, she's pretty much the best hockey player
on three island." He said with a grin. "After all who else knocks
their brother's front tooth out when they practice?" He teased, he
was more making fun of himself since he wasn't the best when it
came to reflexes, if he had been a bit better at catching things he
would've caught the hockey puck.
Scar nodded and glanced at Deirdre. "Honestly I think you scared
dad more than Tiger. After all he tried to climb into the tree
before Tiger did." She sighed. "Though, it is a good thing you
survived. Don't know what I'd do without my big sis." She said
gently.
Miyah giggled. “I told you I was going to shoot it! You should have
gotten out of the way,” She elbowed her big brother playfully. “At
least it was a baby tooth.”
Micah had nodded at what Max had said. "Probably." He mused before
looking down at Flower. "Come on little Flower. JJ, Simon, and Joey
have gone off without us."
"But I want to stay and play, big brother." Flower
replied.
"I know. Something in my gut tells me we are going the same
direction though." Micah chuckled.
"Thanks!" Simon cheered happily as he caught the lollipop and
shoved it away in his bag. "Those things are the best." he added
cheerfully as he sucked on the Pecha lollipop.
"True. I know you'd miss me." Deirdre grinned genuinely at her
sister. "Dad was terrified. Mom was too."
Suko blinked and tipped his head to the side when he heard Flower's
name. He decided to go ovrr to the Bulbasaur. "Random question.
Do you know a Vilpix named Rose? Or a Venusaur named Leaf?" He
asked Flower randomly.
Max raised an eyebrow at his Quilava. "Suko that's a random
question." He mumbled.
"I warned that it was a random question." Suko said
teasingly.
Max sighed and glanced at Mihya. "Good thing it was a baby tooth. I
thought my whold jaw broke." He joked kindly. "Guess I'm over
dramatic."
"Everyone was terrified." Scar sighed and playfully shoved Deirdre.
"Didnt you sneak out after dad later that night in a storm and a
tree attacked you?" She joked.
“Just like mom when I crashed the boat into the dock,” Miyah
snorted. She looked down at Suko and scratched her head. “Uh. Yeah,
we haven’t seen Leaf or Rose in forever, Suko.”
“Yeah! That day was an adventure. Especially for a five year old.”
Deirdre laughed, rubbing her eyes slightly. “Max was scared too.”
She added with a snort.
Jenny walked down to where a bush of roses was. She had heard
rustling in it and looked around.
"Yep! They are my papa and Aunty!" Flower replied with a
large smile.
"You two know Aunt Rose and Uncle Leaf?" Micah asked blinking.
JJ chuckled mischievously before going over to Simon and pulling a
candy from his bag. "No chocolate in there huh?" She asked
knowingly as she unwrapped the candy, a caramel piece, and popped
it into her mouth.
Max laughed in amusement at what Miyah said. "I honestly thought
mom was going to have your head, but dad being dad he fixed the
boat, the dock, and calmed mom down." He said with an amused shake
of his head. He glanced at Micah. "Uh yeah, you see Suko here is
the son of a Vulpix named Rose, my dad Tiger has a Cyndaquil
without a nickname who is this little guy's father." He explained
kindly. "Dad gave me Suko when I was seven."
"Rose is my mom!" Suko replied to Flower cheerfully and
smiled as Miyah scratched his head.
Scar nodded in response to Deirdre and smiled. "Good point, I think
everyone was scared that day. I mean you screamed and Tiger had to
try and calm you down. I don't think I've ever seen anyone be as
calm as he did." She said gently. "Didn't dad get sick after that
adventure?" She asked thoughtfully.
Austin glanced at Jenny. He had been trailing behind the group as
he had to get his Pichu back from Joy. The Fletchling from earlier
was still following him.
“Nope. Unlike you and dad, I don’t have any crazy food allergies.
Just to pollen.” Simon smirked jokingly. “Hey! Don’t take my candy!
Mom gave me that! I have a stash and it’s all mine!” He shouyed in
protest as he grabbed his bag and held it close to himself.
“Okay( was I not supposed to scream? I was like, thirty feet up a
tree on some thin branches.” Deirdre laughed. “Yeah, he was sick.
So was I, a little. We went ot in the rain and my jacket was soaked
to the core, and dad didn’t put a jacket on.” She explained.
Jenny turned. “Austin. There’s a Fletchling behind you.” She said
quietly and looked.
"It's not crazy and remember I'm not allergic to chocolate. Just
dad and too late already nabbed some." JJ responded as she stuck
her tongue out at him.
Micah giggled slightly. "Guess it's a small world." He mused
kindly.
"Really? That's awesome. Guess in a way that would make us
cousins." Flower replied with a large grin.
Scar blinked and looked a bit confused. "Didn't dad give you his
rain jacket after you were soaked through?" She asked gently.
"Anyway yeah I'd be scared too if I was stuck in a tree." She
giggled gently.
Austin looked up and glanced over to the Fletchling. "Huh? Wonder
what it wants." He said quietly. The pokemon landed on his head and
chirped.
Suko nodded and smiled cheerfully. "Yeah guess we are!" He
said happily.
Max smiled slightly and glanced at Micah. "Yeah definitely a small
world." He said kindly.
“You’re so mean, JJ!” Simon said. What he didn’t notice was that a
Munchlax had come up and snatched his bag. Just as he turned, he
saw the Pokémon running. “Hey! That’s my candy!” Simon shouted as
he sprinted after Munchlax.
“Yeah, he did.” Deirdre replied. “We both were sick for a few days.
Just a cold. You stayed inside with mom.” She grimbled
jokingly.
“I don’t know. Its friendly.” Jenny mumbled as she brushed hair
behind her ears.
"Simon wait!" JJ called as she chased after Simon with Joey
following her.
Micah was about to reply when he heard JJ's call and sighed
silently. "Seems like I've been called. Please excuse Flower and
I." He said politely as he picked up his starter.
"Looks like we have to finish our talk later. See you then."
Flower said to Suko with a large grin.
"Give! Me! Back! My! Bag!" Simon panted as he ran quickly before
the Munchlax slowed down, panting. Simon grumbled and panted as he
reached and snatched his bag back. The Munchlax grumbled as he
batted at the bag, knocking out some candy. The pokemon gleefully
grabbed the candy and hid it under his fur.
"Hey," Simon glared. "That's my candy."

Deirdre grinned. "Ah, those were fun times." she smiled. "But now,
we gotta get to Lumiose!" She grinned as she looked down the
route.
Jenny watched Austin interact with the Pokémon in silence.
Miyah waved. "Good luck! See you later, maybe!" She called. "Hmph.
First nice trainer I've met so far," She grumbled under her breath,
stretching. "Welp bro, ready to head out to the next city?"
Max glanced at Miyah, "aw come on sis. Not everyone is mean. I mean
Scar is still nice." He said kindly. "Yeah let go to the next
city!" He cheered happily.
Scar nodded and chuckled in response to Deirdre. "Yeah those were
fun times." She said cheerfully and followed her sister down the
route.
The Fletchling chirped happily and landed on Austin's shoulder.
Sparky squeaked in amusment. "Looks like I got a new Pokemon."
