Chapter 57

The dark skinned boy gaped up at the younger Jord, seemingly lost on what just happened, "F-fine!" he spat and pushed himself up, face a mess of blood from where she headbutted him, "Just give me Raboot's pokeball and we'll be going then!"

"How about no?" Jord snorted and dangled the pokeball teasingly at the older boy, "The way I see it, Raboot doesn't like you. So, if he wants to leave you, I'm all for letting him."

The slender boy gaped at Jord, "....You can't do that!" he spluttered.

"Yeah, I cant, it's against the law," Jord shrugged and the boys shoulders slumped in relief, only to widen in alarm at what Jord did next, "Here, why don't you pick Raboot?" he looked over to the Galar starter pokemon and tossed the pokeball over to it, the ball landing in front of its feet.

"What are you doing!? Raboot I order you to bring that pokeball over here!" The would be Krabby thief ordered his pokemon.

It ignored him and gave the ball a curious look before looking back at Jord, "It's up to you, you can stick with this moron," he said jabbing his thumb over his shoulder at the dark skinned slender boy, "Or you can go free. Or hell, you can come with me if you want. I've got a ton of pokemon but I rotate and train them all and I can promise you'll be far stronger than you ever imagined if you decide to come with me."

the small fire type just stared at him for another moment, before completely ignoring its trainer and looking to Milotic who had been silent allowing her trainer to do what he wished. "Ra, ra boot?" the small fire type cocked its head to the side.

Hilda had no idea what it was doing. She could only guess it was asking Milotic something about Jord.

Milotic in response lost the terrifying visage she was displaying and beamed beautifully, "Mi mi miiiiiiiii!" she trilled back with her absolutely gorgeous voice.

'Maybe I can produce a show about pokemon singing together?' Hilda mused. Milotic's voice was so beautiful and soothing to listen to.

"Boot." Raboot nodded once and then lifted one leg up, its foot glowing white and brought it down hard on the pokeball, smashing it to pieces before anybody could react.

"Raboot what are you doing!?" its trainer screamed in shock.

Raboot snorted at his shouting then went back to ignoring him as it walked over to Jord and looked up at him, giving him a simple nod.

A smug, shit eating grin appeared on Jord's face and he pulled a pokeball out from his pocket and crouched down to gently tap it to Raboot's head.

The fire type starter spared one last glance at its former trainer, before being enveloped in red light and sucked within the pokeball. In just a few moments, the pokeball lit up red and shook a bit, before slowing to a stop.

And a second later, it was teleported away just like Krabby before it.

Its former trainer stared wide eyed at the position his 'starter' pokemon previously stood before a scowl appeared on his face, "Fine, see if I care! I never wanted you anyway, remember!" he spat, "I've got plenty of other pokemon to fill your spot!"

He glared at Jord and then her, before stomping away without sparing a second glance at them.

Hilda watched him go for a moment, before snapping a picture of him using her x-transceiver. Him catching Krabby before Jord could was not at all against the law, but trying to attack her with his Raboot?

That seriously was. She was going to send his picture to the local police department and let them deal with him. If he was lucky, he'd get off with just a black mark on his trainer record.

"...God I should have smashed his stupid fucking face in." Jord' snarling voice broke her from her thoughts and she looked to see him staring after the dark skinned teen with his teeth bared like a Houndoom once again.

He looked like he was seconds away from chasing after him and jumping him from behind and beating the ever loving crap out of the boy.

"So do you actually know where Mew is?" Hilda asked a question on her mind. Both to sate her curiosity and to get his mind off of the leaving boy.

Jord turned to her losing his snarl and raised an eyebrow at her question, "Of course I don't, you kidding?" he snorted, "I just said that to mess with that little prick."

Hilda sighed, "...Yeah I expected as much." she admitted, shoulders slumping.

A series of groans from the people watching and a cry of, "Ah and you got me all excited too!" from the one father who was shouting back up for her.

Jord gave a start at the sudden noise of people and turned to look wide eyed at them, "...W-what the fuck?" he spluttered in surprise, "When did these people get over here? How long have they been watching us?"

That was him just noticing all of them.

'Tunnel vision indeed.' Hilda rolled her eyes.
