Chapitre 109: A new companion
While waiting for Willow,
" So Daniel do you often act as referee for the gym battles?" Alex asked
" Hmmm. No grandpa only asks me once in a while to act as referee if he feels I can learn something while observing the battle." He told.
"Do you know Alex , Daniel over here is one of the best trainer in the younger generation." Bill told him
" Is that so?" Alex looked at Daniel with more interest than before. He has already felt Daniel wasn't ordinary and to be hailed as one if the strongest even in younger generation is awesome as well as honorable.
" I can't match you though. You are better than me. " Daniel plainly said
" Don't be so modest. I became an official trainer just this year and have been that for around six months." Alex told
" I am not underestimating myself. You are strong. I don't think I could last long along that Slowking of yours.
If your pokemons are as strong as him then you are way ahead of me." He said
" Slowking is currently my strongest pokemons ( overall when taking in regards physical strength, special strength and speed along with endurance) others are weaker than me.
And my pokemons are still too young to be added to the abacus. " Alex explained his thoughts
" Anyway why did Agatha say she would send the task reward here? Do you know her well?" Alex asked curious.
Daniel just looked at him blankly while Bill nearby facepalmed heavily and fell on the ground in shock.
" You don't know " Bill asked shocked
"I don't know, what?" He asked puzzled
" You really don't know about it. Seriously." For the first time since Alex met Daniel , he showed another expression in addition to the bored lazy look, a new experience if utter surprise.
" Can you please elaborate what I don't know?" He asked agitated with these two dragging on the question.
" Well Agatha and me are related. She is my grandma . She is my grandpa younger sister."
" Own sister?" He asked
" Own sister" he replied
" So I can see why she sent me here and even sent some info about me when she told not to spread words around for my own protection. But there should be something more here . What could be her reason to send me here."
" And reason was to introduce you to Daniel. He is also a former participant of indigo league.
He will take part this year too so she thought it would be good for you to meet each other and have a healthy rivalry among yourself.
You don't have many friends. You needed someone to talk to similar to Daniel. Genius can't interact well with average people a d so they tend to be lonely.
With you both together you can also improve each other's communication skills." A voice came from behind.
When the three turned towards the source of voice, they saw it was Willow who came back with some boxes.
" Come around Alex let me show you your gifts." He motioned " if you don't mind they too can see it." He looked over the two extra people.
" I don't mind." He replied after the adventure he knew Bill enough not to cause him problem and since the other is from Agatha's family who helped him a lot and also antisocial so he won't reveal much or anything about him so he agreed.
Firstly, Willow took out a box and gave it to him first. " This is one of the two gifts the Silph president wanted to give you. Come on open it up."
Alex took the box and slowly opened it. Soon his eyes fell upon a red box 8 inches. He pulled it up to see that it is folded in shape of square and a part of it could be opened.
On opening it he saw a screen and a blue center just below the screen. He ran his hands behind it and he felt a cover. On sliding it down a camera of high resolution was visible but since it wasn't turned on so it wasn't working now.
Bill by the said told Alex," press the blue button for five seconds and leave it "
Alex did as he was told and soon a screen began to flash and a white and red pokeball image was displayed.
Then a feminine soft voice rang ,' please input your data and biometrics for ownership procedure '
Alex looked at Bill puzzled then he told Alex," press any of your finger onto the blue button first for fingerprint scanning then place that back camera towards your eyes for eye scan.
This way the master control of the nav will be under your control. You could even set certain settings too for it."
Alex continued to do as told quietly and after completion,' Good morning, Master Alex. I am your personal assistant, Jewel. I will try to help you with anything you need of me. How may I help you?'
Since it asked, Alex wanted some answers too. " Tell me Jewel what are you ? And what are your application?"
" My name is Jewel. I am the latest creation of Silph Corp, The Nav, short for navigator. I am to navigate my owner in case he is stuck in some problem and help him through all the information and data I have in my database.
I serve as a semi autonomous digital pokedex, a phone, a diary, a map , a medicine catalog, item catalog and a expert advisor. "
Bill said," This is our latest tech. It will help you as much as possible. " Then seriously told him ,"Alex don't lose it or you would be in a very big problem and not even Agatha could help you.
This has some secret of the league so take special care of it. Anyway let's get to the next gift."
"Yes indeed. " And he handed him the pokeball.
" What pokemon is this, bill?" Alex took the pokeball and asked bill.
" While we were in the forest, you often mentioned how you wanted to get an Arcanine or even a Growlithe so I thought you would like it." Bill explained
" Is it really?" Alex asked excited
" Why don't you take it out and see for yourself?"
Alex threw the pokeball in the air and released the Pokemon.
Out came a Growlithe. It was quadruped, canine Pokémon. It has orange fur with black stripes along its back and legs. The fur on its muzzle, chest, belly, and tail is cream-colored, as well as an additional tuft of fur on top of its head. Growlithe's coat is noticeably longer on its chest and tail. It has gray eyes, a black nose, and large, round ears. Its forepaws have two visible claws, while its hind paws have three toes each. Each paw has a brown pad.
It was bout 2 Feet tall from the ground and it fur looked really soft.
He looked around puzzled and then sat down. Alex went to Growlithe and bent towards him. Growlithe wasn't agitated or anything he still looked at the approaching young boy.
Alex bent to Growlithe eye level and looked at his eyes and told," Hey there buddy. I am your new trainer. Are you willing to follow me?"
Growlithe looked at his eyes and tried to learn as much as he could about him. Then as If he found what he wanted to look at he jumped onto Alex getting him to the ground and licked his face.
" Haha calm down Growlithe. Ok ok buddy I like you too " he said to him while the other observers just smiled at their bonding.
" Since you got the gift from Bill now it is Agatha's turn."
Now he got a Growlithe. What did Agatha got for Alex? Stay tuned
