Chapter XXVIII: Top of The World

"I'm on the top of the world, looking down on creation, and the only explanation I can find, is the love that I found, ever since you've been around, your love's put me at the top of the world..."

The Carpenters-Top of The World

It had been a few days since Gordie and Thora got an invitation from Leon about a tournament at Wyndon. Part of her was nervous about who she would be facing during the event but at the same time she was excited to see what the tournament entailed. During her time she was not busy with her duty as a gym leader, she was spending time with Ramone and her mother much to her brother's delight. Thora got to spend time with her mother and finally broke the news to her and Ramone that her and Gordie were dating. Giselle couldn't help but shed tears of joy knowing that this day would come. As for Ramone, he was bursting with excitement that finally, her and Gordie were officially a couple. Thora was embarrassed telling family and had a strong feeling that Gordie might have felt the same too when he told his mother.

After Thora's daily routine at the Hammerlocke Stadium, Ramone wanted to train with Thora in helping his Rockruff Ruby to get stronger. Thora didn't mind training with Ramone, it had been a while since they last trained with one another. Ramone was excited by the idea of showing how strong Ruby has gotten since his mentorship. During their training, Thora decided to use her Luxray for a practice battle against Ruby. During the time Thora was training with Ramone, she noticed Ruby was getting better at evading attacks and her Rock Throw had strength tremendously. She could tell Gordie helped Ramone out with Ruby with her moveset along with battle tactics. Thinking about it made her blush a bit but she shook it off as she continued her day training with Ramone.

Once training had finished, she noticed something different with Ruby. She had a look of confidence on her face to which Ramone was very happy about.

"What is it girl," Ramone asked.

"Arf arf," Ruby barked.

It was currently sunset, Ruby looked up at the sky and for an odd reason, she was enthralled by how beautiful it was as she couldn't keep her eyes off of it. Suddenly, Ruby let out a loud howl as a white glow surrounded her body. Ramone and Thora's eyes widen as they realized Ruby was evolving! Ruby had evolved into a Dusk form Lycanroc! Ramone's eye widened as he was taken aback that his Rockruff had finally evolved. Ruby looked over to him with a smile on her face looking at him with soft green eyes.

"Roc," Ruby barked.

"Ruby...you look so...COOL," Ramone exclaimed as he immediately hugged her.

Thora couldn't help but smile seeing Ramone hugging Ruby. She was happy to see that Ruby had finally evolved but at the same time in her mind she wondered what Gordie would think seeing that Ruby evolved. Ruby opened her eyes when she noticed Gordie behind them as her tail wagged happily.

"Hm, what's up girl," Ramone asked.

Ramone turned around to see Gordie behind them. Ramone was beaming seeing Gordie again while he was still hugging Ruby.

"Gordie! What are you doing here," Ramone questioned with wide eyes.

"Could ask the same for you buddy," Gordie smiled then turned his attention to Thora, "training with your big sister?"

"Mhmm," Ramone nodded, "and look! Ruby evolved!"

Ruby approached Gordie as she sat herself down before her looking up at him. Gordie's eye widened as he knelt down lowering his sunglasses looking at her. He was astonished by how amazing Ruby looked all the while Ruby was wagging her tail.

"Can see you've been taking really special care of Ruby," Gordie said.

"Yup! Thanks to Thora, she helped Ruby evolve into Lycanroc," Ramone proudly smiled.
