Kapitel 269: Chapter 6 Meeting her

August said to the group of young trainers," Welcome to my humble Adobe."

This brought Alex out of his thoughts and he looks up to the house.

The house was built at the tree top at least 40 metres above the ground. It was a multistorey house with open windows and wide balconies to enjoy the scenery from the top.

The other house here were only one storey but they were wide and covered the entire canopy of the tree. Many bird Pokemons seem to settle and even have built their bests in the top of the trees and houses.

There are about ten to fifteen houses built around the house of August. There are about ten kids playing with the baby bird pokemons like Pidgey, Spearow, taillow, wingull and even a Rufflet which is rare in these parts.

The pokemons are pretty bold too. They didn't seem to be afraid of Alex and his friends. They even settled themselves on the shoulder of the strangers and look at them curious.

" These kids are the children of the caretakers, doctors and Pokemon breeders, I have hired before I settled here to look after the Pokemons I still have with me.

As for these pokemons, they are the descendants of my Pokemons. You seem surprised by their boldness isn't it?" August explained who these kids are.

" Yes, they are more friendly than any Pokemon I have ever seen. But since they are your pokemon's descendants, then it explains everything." Alex said, and the others are smart enough to catch the meaning.

" If the trainers arrive here and attack these pokemons then the older ones will come forward to protect them. So the only way to have one of these pokemons is to get their friendship and show you are qualified enough to raise them well." Elsa said while she rubbed the head of a Rufflet.

August didn't say much and then pointed to the grandest tree house they have ever seen.

The treehouse was. Multistorey building built around the trunk and branches of the tallest tree which was about two hundred metres in height.

The house was at least three storey with balcony on every room, different furniture made of wood on the balcony and on these balcony many bird Pokemons perch.

Every thing in the house is made of wood, even the railing are like that without much artistic look. If the house wasn't grand in size then one could only say that the former elite four lived a pretty plain life.

There are stairs to the house built around the trunk which rise to the house level in a spiral way.

" That house over there is my home. Come along. There are some trainers your age too. I think this will be good for you, Alex. "

And the group started to rise through the spiral wooden stairs to the tree house.

Just before entering the house, August warned them with a serious tone, " Do not make too much noise in the house.Currently, I have a certain Pokemon of mine living with me in the house who is helping train another trainer I told you about.

But, he is a bit ... Unmmm. Moody to say the least. He didn't like to waste his time like this. So any small things make him lose his temper and he may act a little aggressive with you, so be prepared. "

After that he went inside his house.

The group stayed at the doorstep and looked at each other thinking about whether they should follow him inside to face that agitated Pokemon of a powerful trainer, especially a former elite four isn't something they like to face but they still have to face it anyway.

Bill braves himself and walks forwards," We can't keep the old man waiting."

And he enters the door. Others look at Alex wanting to know how he did it. Alex just shrugs and thought to himself,' Leave it to Bill to rush into things without much thinking.'

And Alex decides to follow Bill inside.

When he enters the house, he saw that just like the things on the balcony, everything here is also made of wood. The pillars supporting the house, the chair, table, bed, window, everything is made of wood.

But, unlike the works on the exterior which was quite plain, the inner decorations is quite good. Not too dazzling or superb but enough to show that the person who lives here isn't an ascetic.

The furniture of the house have at least one Pokemon sculpture sculpt on the body while the walls of the room has different scenes and scenarios painted and some etched in the wall.

These scenes attracted Alex attention for they range from a person standing in front of a group of string Pokemons like nidoking to the beautiful shining lake from which a Dragonair rose to the ground.

While he looks around his eyes settled on a seemingly plain scene of the ocean and a sun dazzling in the sky except for a slight hump of a four blue spines on the ocean surface.

He could feel that this pokemon is something extraordinary yet couldn't place it anywhere.

August voice rang from behind Alex as he greeted them and welcome them to his house.

" Welcome to my humble abode. This is something which I built with the help of pokemons during my elite four days. It took us about two years to build it, between our free times from work or training and what nots." He told the group but noticed Alex attention was on something else.

It was a plain painting except for four blue spike like blunt projections on the sea and a massive shadow underwater which isn't clear enough to distinguish what that pokemon really was.

So he said behind Alex startling him, and revealed," These painting and engraving on the walls are some of the adventure I had experienced in my past. And that one you are currently watching us something.which alluded me for years.

This pokemon is someone which spiked my interest and before I could have a clear look it went into the deep ocean never to be seen again." His eyes glaced thinking about the past encounter with the Pokemon.

The others didn't say much silently hearing the older man rabble about the past.

Meanwhile Alex pinpoints on which Pokemon this picture may depict, and said "The size of the Pokemon can reveal much, but the premise is that the Pokemon isn't a mutation or variation of a specific pokemon species."

August nods in agreement with Alex and said," Although I only saw it for a few moments it was around fove metres big shadow. I was flying over it, yet because of the fog I cannot get the clear view.

I thought it might be a Tentacruel, or even a Mantine."

Alex interrupted him and said, " I don't agree with it being a tentacruel. The blunt projections aren't rounded on the ends like those of tentacruel tentacles. If it was just an oversized tentacruel then considering the shadow as the head of a very large tentacruel the tentacles are too thin.

We can say it is the new tentacles too which are yet to fully grown but in that case more of the body would be clearly visible.

I can only say that it is either a Mantine which is mutated, a Kingdra which is swimming on his stomach or a certain legendary Pokemon." Alex gave his views.

" Woah to think you can say so much with just looking at a photo, you are impressive." An unknown female voice came. She is among the two people that August had with him whom Alex seem to completely ignored or haven't noticed their presence of his startled expression was anything.

Although Alex haven't met these two kids, he knows the girl for she is someone whose photo he has seem courtesy of Daniel, Agatha's grandnephew.

She is Cynthia Shirona, the future Sinnoh Champion.
