//------------------------------// // Hoenn League part 2 // Story: Luna's Pokémon Journey // by Norwegian boy //------------------------------// After teen minutes of walking, Luna and James finally arrived to the place where they were staying. Luna had no idea what to expect, it was a three storey hotel and it look very fancy. Luna was lost for words, but she managed to find them eventually. “I thought we were staying at some barracks.” Then James started to rub his neck. “That’s my bad, they demolished them few years back and I kind forgot it.” Luna gave him a look that said she wasn’t very happy right now. “I made mistake, and doesn’t it really matter where you are staying?” Luna had to admit it, but he had a point. “Let’s just find our room we are staying in so I can talk to my sister.” They both walk to the hotel. Once they entered they could see a woman sitting behind a desk, she look up from and smiled when she saw Luna and James approaching her. “Welcome, I’m guessing you are Luna, and you are one of the trainers to compete in Hoenn league.” Luna just gave her a nod. “Excellent, her is your key card to your room, it’s number 16 and here is one for James.” She gave them both a key card and with that they headed to their room which was on the second room. Once they found the room they used the card to entered. The room was that special, it had a two bed with a night stand, a tv was hanging on the wall and there was a door to the bathroom. “Why don’t you get comfortable, and I will signal Arcanine so he can bring your sister here.” He told Luna as she placed his backpack by the door. “Are you sure that your Arcanine can hear you from here? We did walk for around ten minutes.” “What it dosen’t say in the Pokédex is that Arcanine has excellent hearing, he can hear me.” He then walk out of the room leaving Luna alone, wondering what she would say. Once James was outside he whistled so hard he could. Celestia was standing near the ocean with arms crossed just looking at the ocean, wondering where it all went wrong, she really thought that her sister was happy when she return but that was not right. Luna was right, she had only been with her sister for a month and then she started to ignore her little sister. Celestia look over her shoulder and saw Twilight and friends talking, why did she care more about them then her little sister? Sure, they were the elements of harmony but that’s no excuse. Then there’s Twilight Sparkle, she had been her mentor for over ten years, did she really care more about her then her little sister? The fact is yes, Celestia felt pretty pathetic right now. Dash was busy with rubbing her check where the sun princess had punched her. “Man, I can’t believe that Celestia hit me. What did I do to deserve that?” Applejack gave her a look said, ‘are you kidding me.’ “Seriously? You really don’t know?” “No, I don’t.” Applejack couldn’t help but shook her head. “Then let me remind you; you accused a human for brainwashing Luna which I am pretty sure that he didn’t.” Dash crossed her arms and look away. “Well, he could have.” Applejack just rolled her eyes of her friends behaviour. “This is reason why I didn’t want to come, I told you and Twilight that coming with Celestia would only make things worse but did you two listen? No, Twilight used her magic and threw us into the portal before Celestia could react.” Then Twilight spoke up. “I just wanted to help her, is that wrong?” “If she want our help then she would have told us and Celestia told us to stay in Equestria, but you didn’t listen to her and look what happened, Luna is angry at her sister and she probably hates us at the moment.” Applejack then laid down on the sand and placed her hat over eyes. “I’m done listing to you Twilight.” Twilight was in utter shock right now, she just want to help Celestia and right now one of her friends had turn her back to her. She loom at the rest of her friends to ask them if they had her back. Rarity. “I’m sorry darling but I’m with Applejack on this one, Celestia didn’t want our help and you didn’t listen, it only made things worse.” Fluttershy agreed with her. Twilight then look at Pinkie. “Well Twilight, I really think that you made the wrong call on this. I know that you wanted to the right thing but in this case, this was the wrong decision. We should have stayed in Equestria and let Celestia handle this.” Twilight and the others just started at Pinkie as she had gone mad. “Why are you girls looking at me like that?” She asked them. Then Dash spoke. “Who are you and what have you done to Pinkie? The Pinkie we know would never have talk this this serious, she would have just talk something nonsense.” Pinkie decided just to ignored her. Arcanine had listen to the six girls and he didn’t what they tried to do, he was more focus on the girl with the rainbow hair, she had threaten his trainer and he really wanted to set fire to that hair she had. Before he could do that, his ears started to twitch, he could hear his trainer whistle, he got up and walk over to where Celestia was. Celestia notice that Arcanine was walking towards her. “I guess your master called you.” She told the Pokémon as he approached her, Arcanine just barked at her. “I’ll take that as a yes, then lead the way.” The legendary Pokémon started to walk towards the hotel and Celestia followed him. Twilight and the others watch as Celestia walk away with Arcanine, Twilight wanted to follow her but after what happened before, she decided not to get involved. Applejack was right, it was a mistake coming to this world with Celestia. Once Celestia reached the hotel she could see the human James standing outside, he was currently leaning against the wall with his arms crossed, he got off the wall when he saw them approaching. “I see that Arcanine remember this place.” The legendary Pokémon just snorted of what his trainer said. “Your sister is in room 16, just head up the stairs and it’s on your left.” James told Celestia. “Thank you.” James gave her a small smile. “Don’t thank me just yet. I’m heading to beach to escort Twilight and her friends to a café called Salt and Pepper so they can get something to eat, you and Luna can meet us there when your done, I know the owner there.” Celestia thought that was a good idea. “Arcanine will stay here and leaded you there when your ready, he knows the way.” With that said he headed to the beach, Arcanine decided to sit by the hotel and wait, Celestia headed inside the hotel, she also had to ask Luna just what these creatures was. Once Celestia found her sister’s room, she was about to knock but hesitated, she was afraid. She knew thought that fear would come to her not after so long time, she took a deep breath and knock on the door. “Come in Celestia.” The older sister open the door with a shaky hand. Celestia could see her sister sitting on a bed, her legs and arms was crossed. Then Celestia notice a lion with hair that was on fire? It kind of look like that creature Arcanine, but this one look like it was female. Celestia closed the door and stood in the centre of the room. “Thank you for giving me the change to talk to you, considering what happened before.” “You can be happy I didn’t let them called the police and have your arrested.” Those word hurt Celestia, being arrest by her own sister wasn’t something she wanted to happen. “You have probably many questions, but I have two; how did you managed to find me and get here?” “Discord and Twilight help me with that, Discord managed to track you down considering he disappeared for a few days, which I thought was weird.” Luna couldn’t help but giggle when she heard that, Celestia wonder why her sister laugh but she could ask later. “Then we made this crystal,” Celestia too out a blue crystal from her pocket. “which we used to create a portal to this world, Discord managed to find out where you were, and we appeared in a forest not far from the city.” She placed the crystal back in her pocket. “it wasn’t easy considering that you took the only book that existed when it came to others world, I really which that Star Swirl could wrote more books when it came to other world and portals.” Luna couldn’t help smile. “Yeah, he was a special pony.” If Pyroar had heard that Luna was a pony after she was hatch, she would probably think that her trainer was crazy, not anymore. Then Celestia spoke. “Now that I have explain that I just want to apologize for the way have treated you,” Then all off sudden tears appeared, Celestia was crying. “I didn’t mean to hurt you like I did, I was so focus on Twilight and her friends that I forgotten about you.” She then fell on her knee. “I’m the worst sister ever.” Right about now, Luna felt bad for her sister. Those tears was real, she was faking it at all. Luna got up and went to her sister to give her a hug. “It’s okay Tia, I shouldn’t have yelled at you as I did before.” “Yes, you should have, I deserved it, I have no excuse for my behaviour over the last three years.” She managed to say between her tears. They just sat there, hugging each other while Celestia cried, she stop eventually. “Are you felling better now?” Luna asked her as they let go of the hug. “Not really, but thanks for asking.” She wiped away some of tears. “Just so you know, I really didn’t want Twilight and her friends to come, I wanted to this alone.” To Celestia’s surprised, Luna smiled. “I know and I’m sorry that I yelled at the Pokémon center, you surprised me and so did they.” Pokémon, that was a name Celestia had heard before but had no idea what was. “Just what is a Pokémon? I heard it a couple of times on my way to where I saw you.” Luna look over to the royal Pokémon. “Pyroar is a Pokémon, or one of many, around 900.” Celestia felt like her brain just shut down. “There over 900 different Pokémon?” Said Celestia as Pyroar walk over to them. “And what actually are you then?” “I’m a Pokémon trainer, I capture them, I train them, and they become my friends.” Luna told her sister while petting Pyroar. “I have been doing this for three months, I had some times that I wanted to quit but in the end, I never regret doing it.” Celestia couldn’t help but question what she said. “Did you just say you have been in this world for three months?” Luna just raised an eyebrow of her sister question. “Yes? why do you ask?” “Because, it’s been three months since you left Equestira.” That didn't surprised Luna. “I thought the time flowed differently in Equestria, I guess I was wrong.” “My sister admits that she was wrong, the world have gone mad.” Luna said with tease in her voice, Celestia couldn't help but smile, it was nice to see her sister in so high spirit. Then Celestia decided to ask something ells. “You told me that didn’t want to return, did you really mean that?” Luna nodded. “Yes, and before you say anything, let me explain.” Celestia decided to hear her sister out. “Back in our world I never felt like myself, before or after my time in the moon. In this world, nobody knows who I am, they don’t bow down when they see me, they don’t run away afraid, and they don’t dream about me eating them.” Luna thought about what she said. “I’m not sure about that last part considering I can’t enter their dream here, which I am glad that I can’t.” Celestia just smiled of what her sister said. “For once in my life I fell like me and I like it.” Celestia listen to what her sister said and she sound happy, happier than she had ever sounded before. Celestia couldn’t describe it but she was happy for her sister, maybe coming here was a bad idea. “if you are happy here Luna then I will no stay in your way, I think I will just leave.” Celestia was about to stand up but then she felt a hand on her shoulder. “Please, don’t go. I know it sounded before that I didn’t want you here, but I have calmed down and I want you to stay.” That warmed Celestia’s heart. “But,” Of course it was a ‘but’ in there. “I am not very pleased that Twilight and her friends are here and yes, I know you said didn’t want them to come but that doesn’t change that they are here.” Luna was right and Celestia agreed with her. “If you want, I can send them back home.” Did she really want to send them back home? Not really. Luna wasn’t cruel person/pony, she had always been nice and just to others, even those who didn’t deserved it, she really didn’t want to send them home. but, there was one thing she didn’t approve off and that was what Celestia did to Twilight. “No, they can stay but it will be on my terms and I am pretty sure you know one of them.” Celestia knew what she was talking about. “You mean that I turned Twilight into an alicorn, right?” “Yes, not only did you go behind my back, you also used an illegal spell. Our partners made sure that no one could use it but somehow you have done it twice, I really don’t care how you found it but that doesn’t mean you can get away with it. You know the punishment for using the spell.” Celestia had actually forgotten it. “I could get exiled to the badlands, by you.” Luna nodded. “That’s right but I will look away if you remove Twilight’s wings.” Celestia really didn’t want to stay on her sister bad side and she really didn’t wan to get exiled. “Alright Luna, you win, I will remove her wings.” Luna was satisfied by that. “Good, I have some others terms, but I can tell them face to face.” “That’s fine by me, the human James told me that they were at some café and a Pokémon named Arcanine knew where it was.” “Then let’s go.” They both got up. “Let’s go Pyroar.”
