Chapitre 24: Chapter 23
I wake up the next morning feeling refreshed and ready to go see Rain's gym battle. I try to get up but my pokemon are laying on top of me. I gently pick up Leilani off my chest and slowly sit up. I slide Balwin to my left side along with Mercy. I try to not wake them up when I move to the right side of the bed. Then I came face to face with an awake Echo who is scowling at me.
Echo hisses softly," Where do you think you are going at six in the morning?"
I put Leilani down between Mercy and Balwin," Well I was going to explore town before going to Rain's gym match. Also why are you awake and not asleep?" I gesture to the other three that are asleep then to her.
Echo slaps my hands," I couldn't sleep because that stupid Duskull came back and tried to take Leilani. Unlike you I woke up and took care of it. I could NOT sleep after that!!!"
I smirk," Ha admit it you were worried."
Echo deadpans blushing," No I was not you idiot I was just being responsible unlike you. At least I woke up unlike your lazy self that could sleep through a predator busting into your tent trying to eat you."
I pale at the mention of that incident. I remember Echo kicking my head screaming that a predator was about to eat me. How I could not wake up from the destruction that happened in my tent. Then Echo started to physically beat me in concern for me. It has not a great morning for me.
I shake myself out of thoughts," Echo you know I am a deep sleeper. Nothing short of the sun rising could wake me."
Echo rubs her forehead," Well it is true you can sleep through almost anything, but that does not give you the excuse to not wake up when someone is trying to take Leilani. At this point I feel like you don't care about any of this and you claim that you were sent here by the pokemon god to fix your mistakes. I do not see you doing anything but battling in the gym circuit."
I flinch," Echo you know the best way to defeat Team Mafia is if we go through the gym circuit. That we need to get stronger and make stronger allies and the only way to do that is through the circuit. The only way to get the Pokemon League to help is with evidence and the only way we can get it is with traveling to each region."
Echo looks at me then walks out of the room," You better bring Leilani and one of the boys with you when you go explore town."
I watch her leave then feel something nudge me. I look over and see Balwin awake and looking at me.
"You know that Echo wants what is best for us. She wants you to confide to her your plan and not keep it inside. It is not right not telling your partner your future plans." Balwin rubs his eyes.
I lift Balwin off the bed and go to the other side of the room," Balwin I want to tell you guys and girls everything but I can't. When I first died I made a promise to Arceus that in exchange for me defeating Team Mafia that my friends would be able to live again. In exchange Arceus also made me promise not to reveal to much information about my mission until I found pokemon and people that I could trust. Balwin I am terrified about all this and did not want to burden anyone else with my plans to defeat Team Mafia. Then when I first meet Echo I decided to tell her why I was there but did not tell her everything."
Balwin sighs," You need to understand that keeping any vital information will kill someone you love one day. I understand not wanting to tell anyone your burdens. The relief you feel when you do tell someone is amazing. Honey keeping these worries inside will not help you. Your best bet is to talk with Echo alone then tell everyone else. We will feel betrayed at first but it is better than waiting."
Balwin then leaves me to think over this. He goes back to bed snuggling close to Mercy and Leilani.
What Balwin said is correct I need to tell Echo then the others what I know. I take out of journal with everything I know about Team Mafia and the story is written in here. It also contains my research and my journey so far written in it. I will show my pokemon what I have written in here before we travel to the third gym.
Then I get dressed and go explore town. I bring Balwin with me leaving Mercy to babysit Leilani. When I get back I check up on Minuet and saw that she was asleep. I made sure not to wake her up. I did not go to find where Echo was because she needs time to herself.
When it was noon I went to watch Rain's match. He barely won his battle against Magi.
Then we went back to our rooms to pack for our journey to Motostoke.
