Pokémon Obsidian/Opal a Pokémon fan fiction

Act- 3 Chapter- 10 Part 2

“Indeed, but the Dex did say it reveals itself to pure-hearted trainers…so that means you must have a pure heart,” Leila states standing up and handing Setsei to me.

“Yeah, I don’t know about that, but I wonder what it did to Hinoté,” I admit crouching down and looking at Hinoté, and he chirps happily, but nothing seems to be different, “I think I’m going to head to the Pokémon center to turn in for the night, are you coming?” I ask returning Loomy and Gallan to their balls.

“Yes! But I’m starving, so can we get some food?” She replies with a growling stomach that looks to embarrass her.

“They normally have food there at the center, and it’s pretty good,” I inform her as we start walking back towards the city.

“I know, but there’s this other place that looks really good, it’s over there by the Pokémart,” she suggests taking the lead as we walk towards the Mart, then after we turn the corner, I notice a restaurant that I paid no attention to when I entered Rustboro, which is called Noctowl Noodle House, “there it is, see?” She points excitedly.

“Yeah, I do now, but I don’t remember seeing it when I got here…” I scratch my head trying to remember if I was distracted or something, because the restaurant sticks out amongst the surrounding buildings.

“That’s because they’re only open after the sun goes down, or around 8:00pm at the earliest,” she informs me grabbing my hand and dragging me towards the restaurant, “hence the name, Noctowl Noodle House, Noctowl being a nocturnal Pokémon…” she drives the point into the ground.

“I get it, but it doesn’t look like they have a lot of business,” I interrupt her as we pass the front windows, then I open the door for her and Hinoté, follow them in as Leila picks a booth in the left corner, and sit down with them picking up a menu.

“Do you have any money? I don’t want to be a bother, but I’m flat broke, and I haven’t eaten much in the last week or so, aside from some berries here and there,” Leila inquires as her stomach growls echoing across the restaurant, then a young red haired waitress walks over to us wearing a Noctowl themed uniform with an Alakazam following her.

“Hi there, my name is Nikkette, and I’ll be your waitress today,” the waitress greets us pulling a pen and pad out of her apron, “can I start you off with some drinks, and maybe some appetizers?” She asks as we look at our menus.

“Sure, thanks…I’ll have Salac Berry tea,” I say as Alakazam takes our Pokémon’s orders.

“I’ll take the same with a little bit of lemonade added,” Leila says, then Nikkette and her Alakazam walk to the kitchen, and return with Alakazam using telekinesis to bring us our drinks.

“Have you decided what you want to eat yet?” Nikkette asks while Alakazam sits out drinks on the table, then I order a special pasta bowl, Leila orders a special rice and pasta bowl, and our Pokémon each give their orders to Alakazam, “alrighty then, we will bring it out to as soon as we can,” she smiles before heading back to the kitchen. While waiting for our food, I take my journal out and begin recording everything that has happened, from the time I woke up here up until now, and we also talk about how I befriended Gallan. Fifteen minutes later, Nikkette and Alakazam return to us with our food, “here you go! I hope you enjoy your meal, and if you need anything, just let me know,” she says before sashaying away, and we dig in while I try to search for an electric type Pokémon with the keyword Zera, but there doesn’t seem to be any information about it, except that it is an extremely fast electric type, there are no pictures of it, and it’s called Zeraora. Once we finish eating, I pack up a couple of samples of the food that Hinoté, Setsei, and Nyte ate, since they each had something different, so I can give it to Loomy and Gallan when we get back to the center, then I pay for the bill leaving a nice gratuity tip for Nikkette and her Alakazam, “oh wow! Thank you! That’s a big tip…” Nikkette reacts in shock.

“Half of it is for your Alakazam, because I didn’t know if it was yours or not,” I explain before leaving the restaurant carrying Setsei with Hinoté resting on my left shoulder. We enter the center, both of us feeling exhausted, and head back to the bunk rooms to find an empty one until finally we the furthest back room, which has an opaque black sliding glass door. As I walk inside, I immediately notice that there is only one full size bed, not much bigger than a twin bed, but the room is much nicer than the others, “well, it beats sleeping outside without a tent or something,” I chuckle mumbling to myself, “so I want to get a shower…or bath…haven’t made up my mind yet, but if you want to go first, you are more than welcome to. Also, if you want, I can sleep on the floor or something,” I mention while putting my gear on the left side of the room, then I undress down to my pants, sit on the bed, take out the leftover food, and let Loomy and Gallan out of their balls, so they can eat.

“We could share the bathroom, one of us could use tub while the other uses the shower…or we could leave our underwear on like swimsuits and sit in the bathtub together, it’s big enough,” Leila offers while also trying to get undressed, but she accidentally rips her shirt completely off.

“Not that it’s a bad idea, but I thought maybe our Pokémon could soak in the tub like a hot springs, that way they can get cleaned up too,” I suggest, to which everyone but Hinoté agrees to happily, which makes sense as he is a fire type.

“That does sound like a good idea, but which one of us should go first?” She inquires grabbing a towel and washcloth from the cabinets in front of me, and I realize that she is only wearing underwear, so I immediately turn away out of respect.

“Sheesh Leila! You could’ve warned me that you weren’t wearing anything…and you can go first if you want, and I’ll fix the bath for them,” I propose slowly turning hoping she is on the other side of the room, and thankfully she is.

“What?! I’m still covered, it’s nothing different from a swimsuit, and I can go first,” she giggles modestly, then she heads into the bathroom leaving the door open.

“Are you all ready to get clean? I won’t be rough, or use anything that can hurt you,” I ask grabbing a few towels and a washcloth, then I head into the bathroom shielding my eyes, walk over to the bathtub, turn on the hot water, and add some bubble bath and bath salts that are specifically made for Pokémon while they all join me in the bathroom. Once they all get to me, I put them in the tub one at a time and turn off the water before it gets too deep for them, then I help each of them get cleaned up as Leila finishes her shower.

“Is everyone enjoying their bath?” Leila asks walking over to us with a towel wrapped around her torso, and they agree happily as she starts helping me to wash them.

“Thanks for the help, so have you decided whether or not you want the bed?” I inquire taking them out, one at a time, and drying them off.

“We should just share the bed, then everyone will stay warm,” she proposes as we get them all out of the tub and dried off.

“We’ll see, but for now, I’m going to get my shower,” I laugh softly shaking my head, then I take a shower while Leila takes our Pokémon to the bed, and I return to the bed after I finish, “since there really isn’t much room to sleep elsewhere, I guess we can share the bed,” I say sitting on the left side of the bed, then we turn off the lights and lay there talking about how she has been watching and following me for a while until we fall asleep with Hinoté, Loomy, and Gallan resting between us, while Leila holds Nyte and I am holding Setsei.
