Chapter 4 - 4. Red head and the storm

" okay girls, a storm is on its way so who wants to go into their pokeballs, I only want two out just for emergencies," I say looking at my Pokémon as they look at one another until fennekin steps forward and the spearow rubs herself on the side of my head. I nod returning everyone else and we continue down the route. Fennekin paws my leg after a while and I bend down so she can crawl up into my hoodie and take her favorite spot under my chin and against my chest. The spearow looks at her curiously but just pays no mind as I feel Fennekin squirm a little easily marking her scent on me. I just shake my head slightly and just enjoy what's left of the day. ' We'll have to set up camp before sunset, that means finding a good place to set the tent , preferably away from the river about little ways, just incase of flash flooding. I'll also have to fix dinner for myself as well as getting the Pokémon fed. They'll be easier but I'll have to stock up on special blends in viridian just so they'll get treats for good behavior. As we continue down the beaten path of the route I start hearing the sound of water flowing over rocks, meaning I'm close to the river that comes out of the silver mountain range and empties into silver bay after passing through the pallet delta that runs through professor oak's property.

Actually all of pallet town is owned by professor oak as it's common for people with influence to buy large plots of land or be given them from the league as raffles and lotteries. It goes to show that most of the world is still unexplored as new Pokémon are still being discovered.

Walking through the cut out path leading to the river away from the waterfall I come across a sight. Sitting on a rock close to the river is a teenage girl with red hair in a side pony tail around my age. She's dressed in a pair of demi shorts that have red suspenders, a pale yellow crop top that cups her b-cup breasts. I shake my head at the thought right now and make a little bit of noise but not enough to disturb her fishing. She looks over at me and waves before pulling in her rod and reel.

" well fancy seeing someone here," says the girl as she gets up and stretches her top moving slightly showing she's not wearing a bra.

" could say the same, any luck fishing?" I ask as I approach her, " oh I'm halt ketchum by the way."

" misty waterflower, and sadly no. The river seems to still be slightly chilled around here so any water Pokémon would be very sluggish and probably isn't interested in taking bait." She says shrugging and walking over to a red bike that's parked by a tree. " nice meeting you halt but I've got to get back to viridian for my boyfriend, hope we meet again."

She pedals off and I just sigh. "Wow friend zoned before anything," I say as fennekin looks at me before kissing my lips and her tongue quickly flicking into my mouth. I stop as she barks her name and spearow nuzzles my cheek. I scratch fennekin behind her ears and give spearow some gentle scratches on her chin. I sit on the rock that misty just vacated and stay with my Pokémon for a while thinking on non-important things.

I jump slightly as the sky darkens super quickly and thunder peels through the sky. Looking up I notice the thunderstorm that's right over head as more lightning rips across the sky. The sky decides to open up and rain starts to down pour. Looking around I catch a glimpse of something as another batch of lightning strikes. Rushing towards the waterfall i squeeze into a well hidden cave behind the waterfall that has a decent amount of room. About thirty feet in diameter with a pool of water flowing into cave from the river and large luminous ores give light to the cave. I sigh and both spearow and fennekin get off me to shake off the water and I start removing my soaked clothes. As I remove my hoodie my pokeballs open up and my Pokémon release themselves just in time for me to remove my shirt. All my Pokémon blush looking at my lean muscled body and sylveon kicks her lips along with zorua and fennekin. Opening my bag I remove my dry bag that I stuffed with fire tinder and I start to dig a hole in the ground with my etool I also packed.

Soon I have a nice sized campfire and changed into some dry clothes, pulling out some cooking equipment and some ingredients i start cooking dinner. My Pokémon are eating their pokechow topped with thier favorite berries and finding out spearow has a taste for the more sour berries.

Pouring some olive oil into the cast iron skillet i got i start prepping the raticate meat i have by removing more of the silver skin and trimming the fat adding it into the oil. I rub the meat with a blend of 1/4 cup dark brown sugar, 1 tbsp coarse sea salt,2 tsp each: cracked black pepper, smoked paprika, garlic powder, onion powder,1 tsp cayenne pepper

1/2 tsp ground chipotle pepper, and some crushed tamato berries. Rubbing the flank of the raticate with the rub using Dijon mustard as a binder i set it off to the side and start fixing some potatoes with some garlic. Cooking the potatoes till they're golden brown i pull them out of the pan then I put in the flank and get a sear on all sides before covering with a lid and raking goals over the skillet getting heat from all sides. After it was done I ate my hearty dinner and started cleaning the pan such as using more oil to remove the spices and leftover food then wiping it out and putting some lard into the pan to render down and then wipe before letting the pan cool and storing it along with my dried cooking utensils. Setting up my sleeping bag and tent I'm gently rubbed against by sylveon and she gets infront if me and stretches showing off her ass. I sigh as she smirks and gets into the tent. I roll my eyes and return my Pokémon to their pokeballs and follow my sylveon into my tent.
