Chapter 153
No One POV
Moving on from the intense battle in the last few chapters both Haleakala and Espie are still in the Hoenn region's Mossdeep city searching for that anomaly and also have their little date as well.
The next day had arrived and they have till 8:00 at night till the fireworks start and the 2 of them are at the Pokémon center having their breakfast, as of course Haleakala made an omelette for them.
Espie:do you always eat omelette's.she asked
Haleakala:for the most part yeah but I do eat other stuff, but in this Aether World thing what kind of food do they have.he replied
Espie:*taps her chin*hmm well there's tons of food to pick and it's all high quality as well, the world is basically paradise to say the least.she responded
Haleakala:does any of you and the other versions of Isaiah and Isabella's have children.he asked
Espie:*shakes her head*No considering most of the Isabella's hate men to some extent but some of them are willing to give it another shot, the same can be said for the other...Me's they tend to not have fun.she responded
Haleakala knows what's that like since him and his brother was alone trying to take down these Dark Knights until they ended up in Keenan's verse because Arceus was the one who told them to look for Keenan and he'll be able to help a lot.
They have already defeated 2 of the 10 Dark Knights and these last 10 are also Hades strongest set as well, considering that both him and his brother killed the other sets...there were dozens of them.
Haleakala:I do get that you guys need to destroy those threats but that doesn't mean you can't relax and have fun every once in awhile, we may have the Dark Knights to take care of but that doesn't mean I'm always serious.he said out loud
Espie:*sighs*I wish the others were like that but Ragnarok has really been making it hard on us, but I gotta ask how long have you and your brother been fighting these Dark Knights.she asked him
Haleakala:I'm not really sure, it all starter when I was 18 years old but it feels like....we've been fighting them for centuries. We killed so many of them I lost count.he replied to her
In all honestly Haleakala doesn't even know how own age since he was so busy killing these deranged Pokémon left and right and that also includes the other universes he's been to prior to all of this.
Espie:hmm so these Dark Knights how many did you fought.she asked
Haleakala:there were dozens of them that's for sure, he always had set after set. But the ones we're fighting up against now are his more stronger ones. It's the last set that he has.he told her
Espie:ohh so you guys are almost done with it then, how many are left.she asked
Haleakala:8 more, but each of them will get stronger each time. But how about we finish breakfast and head out.he suggested
She seemed ok with that as she finished her breakfast with Haleakala.

Change POV Haleakala
After we finished eating our breakfast we made our way over toward where the fireworks show will be taking part as I looked at the Rotom phone that I have which is only 6 hours away as we still have a long while till it begins.
I honestly don't mind having Esther 2 here...or well Espie since that's what she wants to be called, but I also can't help but be a bit worried for her since she's not from this world and is supposed to be in Aether World.
Looking at her now she really is similar to the one I hit up during that battle with Galeem or whatever the hell it was called. I also can't help but wonder how strong her Pokémon are, I mean she has to be strong since she's second in command.
Me:do you have any Pokémon that has special abilities.I asked her
Espie:*confused*what do you me a by that, you mean like Mega Evolution.she asked me
Me:well kinda, but if you want I can give your Pokémon the Totem ability. It doesn't have any side effects other then the fact is if your Pokémon aren't strong enough it will tire our quickly.I told her
Espie:hmm I do remember Esther telling me about it, that you have this chrome color Rayquaza Totem Mega Evolve, like how the hell is that even possible.she questioned
Me:*shrugs*I also have a Sceptile that can Totem Mega Evolve, I think he's the strongest aside from Rayquaza that is.I replied to her
She seemed to be rapidly thinking about it as I know that her Pokémon are able to handle it if she's second in command, I also wonder if her Pokémon are the same level as Esther's shiny Solgaleo..i actually want to battle it.
It's been awhile since me and Rayquaza had a battle that doesn't involve with us trying to kill anything, I wonder if she'll be up to it...unless I can battle Espie and have her Pokémon improve as well.
Espie:is there a limit of how many Pokémon you can give the Totem powers.she asked
Me:nope i can give an unlimited amount to whoever I see fit, so if you want to can literally Totemfy your entire team.I replied to her
Espie:*rubs her chin*hmm I think I'm fine with one Pokémon for the time being, I think Espeon should have it since she's the first Pokémon I had.she said out loud
Me:we can do it later but for now how about we dress up into kimonos and what not, I'm sure you'll look cute in one.I suggested
We're in front of a store that sells those kind of things as she seemed to be contemplating about it, I mean I'm sure she'll look fine either way. Especially with her platinum blonde hair and violet colored eyes.
Espie:I guess I can put one on it's been awhile since I last did, and besides it is a special occasion.she agreed to it
Me:*nods*I'll join you I guess, I'll put a male one on as well. I just hope they have my size tho.I said as I looked down
Espie:*giggles*I guess being 6'4 does have its downsides doesn't it.she asked
Me:*smirks*at least I can reach the top shelf unlike you.I teased her
Espie:*pouts*ouch don't need to hurt me with that.she said back to me
I chuckled at that as we both split up for the time being to choose our kimonos as I really hope they have my size and apparently we can either rent or buy them and i think I'll buy them because why not I have the money for it.
Small Timeskip
Still Haleakala POV
After I finished putting on the kimono that I brought as I looked in the mirror as I REALLY do look like somebody but I can't really put my tongue on it, but this does match with my bluish black hair and my green colored eyes so it's not that bad.
Me:*looking at himself*hmm I swear I look like someone but I can't really put my finger on it.he said to himself
Espie:whoa if I didn't knew any better I'd mistaken you for an Isaiah, but you really do match with that.she said to him
Haleakala had turned toward the voice to see Espie wearing her own kimono which is similar to the clothing she was wearing earlier but more elegant, he had to admit she really does look super cute and beautiful in it.
But he also thinks that she sort of looks like someone as well like maybe her ancestor or something, Haleakala knows for sure that he isn't related to Adaman.
Espie:*blushes a bit*soo ugh how do I look.she asked him
Me:*whistles*dam you really do look cute and beautiful in it..to bad they don't have white and blue tho because of your hair.I said back to her
Espie:*sighs*yeah I tried looking for one but didn't had much luck, but I'm glad you like it.she said back to me
Me:well then shall we get going.I asked
Espie:*nods*sure but I think Espeon deserves to be out, I want her to watch the fireworks as well.she said as she took out a ball
Her shiny Espeon had made its way out of the ball as she shook off the laziness perhaps from being cooped up in there as she really is an impressive Pokémon, but I always question the creators....why green and why not yellow like seriously.
Me:so that's your Espeon huh I can tell she's quite strong.I commented
Espie:*nods*yup of course she'll be strong, but are you going let any of your Pokémon out.she asked me
Me:*sweat drops*that wouldn't be a good idea since everyone will most likely shit themselves if I did let one of them out.I replied to her
Espie:hmm yeah I guess your right about that, but cmon I'm in the mood for some yakisoba.she said excitedly
She grabbed onto my hand and started to drag me off toward who knows where but as we continued walking I could see her Espeon eyeing me out until she sent me a small smirk...that made me a bit uncomfortable to be honest.
Change POV No One
After they both changed into kimonos and whatnot they started to explore the place where the fireworks festival will be taking place as pretty much almost everyone was staring at them, there were girls eyeing out Haleakala and guys eyeing out Espie.
He looks down at the shorter girl and gently held onto her hand which surprised her but held onto his hand in response, for Espie she never really had experience with relationships since they were always so busy.
This is all new to her and she wanted to know what it was like, but she can't exactly date the other Isaiah's in Aether World since they were just like the other Esther's.
Espie:hey if you don't mind me asking who's this Keenan person, from what I heard that he's similar to Isaiah.she asked him
Haleakala:hmm well Keenan is definitely like Isaiah but he isn't as pale as a paper sheet that's for sure. They have similar personalities but I'm also afraid of what's to come in the future.he told her
Espie:I see, but these orbs they have similar powers to the Plates as well.she asked
Haleakala:*nods*yes but there are some orbs that are blessed, like for example the Time orb which is the one he first attained. As it's able to temporarily freeze time, rewind time up to 3 minutes and also speed up birthing process apparently.he said back to her
When he said that her ears had perked up a bit "speed up birthing process huh?" Is what her mind rewind, as she glanced up at the taller male and started to think about it. At the rate she's going at now she most likely won't know the betterment of motherhood.
She always wondered what it would be like if she had children of her own until Esther had found her and brought her back to Aether World, don't get her wrong she's all for stopping Ragnarok once and for all.
Espie:*a bit nervously*hey um Haleakala what do you think of children.she asked him
Haleakala:*raises an eyebrow*well they aren't that bad unless their complete brats and a pain in the ass to deal with, I do have a son named Kuahiwi who I had with my version of Yancy.he told her
Espie:*surprised*wait really how old is he.she asked
Haleakala:*looks up*hmm I had him at 16 so he'll be turning 5 this year, he's one of the remaining survivors of my reality which I'm happy about it. But that trauma he witnessed...will live with him forever.he said back to her
He does feel bad for having Kuahiwi go through all that trauma and at such a young age as well, or also doesn't help to see his supposed dead grandfather be revived and joined the dark side as well.
In that point he can't really do anything about it since Rago has joined Hades and his cause and there is nothing he can do about it....but kill him again and make sure he doesn't get revived once more.
Espie then held onto his hand tighter which broke him out of those thoughts as he stared down at her violet colored eyes.
Haleakala:sorry I was a bit distracted about something.he apologized to her
Espie:*shakes her head*don't worry about it, it must've been hard for him that's for sure. But where does he live now.she asked
Haleakala:he of course lives with us back in Kanto, my dad Tobias has a castle there so he's been with us ever since we encountered each other in Alola.he answered her
Espie:does he have a mother figure.she asked
Haleakala:*shakes his head*no he does not, although Victoria does tend to treat him like her own son which I'm thankful for. But I'll give him more time, he'll tell me when he wants one.he replied
Espie:how about we stop talking about...the dark stuff and focus on something else, like how about that flute stand over there.she asked
As she pointed at the flute stand as the 2 of them had made their way over toward the stand as there's a wide variety of flutes and other woodwind like instruments, like oboes and clarinets. Haleakala does know how to play pretty much every kind of instrument out there so it brought back memories.
Haleakala:do you know how to play the flute.he questioned her as he picked one up
Espie:no not really, but Esther does know how to play the flute she's really good at it.she replied
Haleakala:*hands her the flute*well here give it a shot, you guys are pretty much the same person so you should be able to play it...possibly.he offered her
Espie:*sweat drops*well I guess it wouldn't hurt.she agreed to it
She slowly grabbed the flute out of his hands and took a deep breath and blew into it....to say the least it was..quite bad as everyone around them had winced at the sound, even Haleakala as he managed to stop her.
Espie had looked down and blushed in embarrassment since she isn't good like her original counter part with the flute, but everyone starts somewhere that's for sure.
Espie:*blushes in embarrassment*yeah sorry about that it sounded...quite horrible.she apologized
Haleakala:I will admit it that sucked major ass but not everyone is going to get it the first try...unless your some prodigy, but I can play you something I'd you'd like.he offered her
Espie:hold on you can play the flute.she asked quite intrigued by it
Haleakala:I do know how to play most instruments out there and sing, but I guess I'll do a little riff.he said back to her
As Espie had handed him the flute still a bit embarrassed about earlier as everyone there including she was surprised to hear the melody that he just played...to her it was beautiful but it also sounded oddly familiar.
When he was done playing the small riff he looked back at Espie who was surprised to see that he can really play the flute, and here she thought he was just fucking around with her but he wasn't.
Haleakala:so how was it.he asked her
Espie:*surprised*wow you really can play the flute and here I thought you were just fucking with me.she said in surprise
Haleakala:now why the hell would I lie about that, but I'll buy this for you for you can practice.he offered
Espie:oh um you don't need to pay for it I'll pay for it since I have quite a bit of money.she replied
Haleakala:it's only $500 so it's not that expensive I'll just buy it for you.he said back to her
Espie:*thinks*what is he my own personal sugar daddy or something.she thought to herself
Haleakala had brought the flute and himself an oboe for he can also play again later on as both of them had made their way over toward a real nice spot to watch the fireworks as it'll begin in just 10 minutes from now.
But when they reached the spot they bumped into Tatsumi,Kalakaua,Quillon,Regina and Danika who also wore kimono's(minus Tatsumi and Kalakaua).
To say the least they were quite surprised to see Haleakala but they were even more surprised to see that he was with a girl as well. They never seen her before that's for sure, but Espie can already tell that this world REALLY has a lot of similarities.
Tatsumi:*wide eyed*holy crap your here as well dude what the hell.he questioned
Kalakaua:and with a girl as well who would've thought, although with his looks it's expected.he commented
Danika:so you guys know who he is.she asked
Tatsumi:um yeah let's just say that he has really overpowered Pokémon that can solo all of our teams like it's nothing.he replied to her
Haleakala:didn't you had to battle Lance, why the hell are you here.he asked confused
Kalakaua:after the whole Lance thing which Tatsumi had won by the way, he also gotten a Project Mew mission in the Hoenn region. And I also have to battle Steven so might as well kill 2 Pidgey's with 1 stone.he said back to him
The more he thought about it the more he understood what he meant by that, as all of their focus had landed onto Espie in which both Kala and Tatsu had to admit that she's really cute. But their eyes had landed onto the device she has on her wrist.
She isn't from this universe and is most likely one of those anomalies that he mentioned, but if she was an anomaly he would've take care of her already. So this person has to be from this place he mentioned to them.
Quillon:we'll leave you guys alone, cmon Regina.he said
Regina:oh alright.the 2 of them walked away
As Danika had also joined in with them leaving Tatsumi and Kalakaua alone with Haleakala and Esther 2.
Kalakaua:soo is this girl an anomaly or something, or is she from this paradise place you mentioned.he asked
Haleakala:she's from the paradise place and she's also the second in command.he replied
Espie:it's nice to meet you, I'm Esther but you can call me Espie.she introduced herself
Tatsumi:I'm Tatsumi.
Kalakaua:and I'm Kalakaua yo.
They both introduced themselves as Espie had looked at both Tatsumi and Kalakaua which made them a bit uncomfortable while Haleakala knew why she's looking between them see if the similarities.
Espie:*points at Tatsumi*you sort of remind me of Lehua.
Espie:*points at Kalakaua*and you sort for remind me of Kyle, man the similarities in this universe is uncanny.she said to them
Haleakala:yeah but unlike Lehua from Isaiah's world....Tatsumi here will demolish him like it's nothing.he told her
Kalakaua:right well me and Tatsu are going to get going don't want to interrupt your date.he said back to them
Once again they were left alone and just in time as well as the fireworks will start in 5 minutes as both Haleakala and Espie had sat down on the grass overlooking the ocean as there's hundreds and quite possibly thousands of people ready to watch it.
While they were sitting down Espie had slowly snaked her hand over toward his and held it as Espeon had watched the interaction with an introduced expression on her face, but she can also feel the emotion from it's trainer.
Espie:*blushing a bit*hey um Haleakala.she asked
Haleakala:just call me Halea for short if you want to, but what is it.he asked and replied
Espie:*blushes more*I was wondering if we could..head back to the hotel and have um sex.she asked him
Haleakala:*surprises*HUUH but we literally just met and this is also our first date and you want to go to that already, are you sure about that.he asked quite surprised about the situation
Espie:*looking down*yes i know this is quite shocking to hear from me, but I do think that I at least deserve to know what mother hood is like. All the other versions of me probably won't get the chance to do so but I'm not going to be one of them..and so that's why I'm asking you if we could have a child together.she said back to him
Haleakala doesn't really know what to say since he doesn't want her to get in trouble but then again he's sure that there will be other people to take after her if she did get pregnant and Vice versa.
But what she says is true, there's no telling what could happen in the future and he does know what she means by that. When Yancy had gave birth to Kuahiwi he was happy to see that he was born and felt happiness.
Esther 2 most likely wants to know what it feels like even if it does knock her off the spot of second in command, but she can still do her duties even when she's also being a mom.
Haleakala:*looks at her*I guess we can do it but if you do need help don't be afraid to come to me and ask, after all it'll be my child as well.he said back to her
Espie:*smiles*thank you for this Haleakala, I didn't know if I should ask an Isaiah but it'll be...weird to say the least. But when I seen you in Aether World I decided to give it a shot.she said back to him
Haleakala:still can't help but be worried about you tho, will you get in trouble tho.he asked her
Espie:*giggles*yeah I'll get in trouble but Esther is quite the tsundere, I know she'll go all baby mode when she sees the child. All of us has a soft spot for children, I'm sure Isaiah-666 will support me all the way.she said back to him
They were interrupted when the fireworks had started as everyone there had sat there to watch the fireworks go up into the air as the soft glow from the stars is shining off of everyone, as there's a few other people that they know are also watching the fireworks.
Like Lehua,Keenan,Alain,Paul and even Tobias is there with Samson as Victoria is back at the castle watching over Serena. As all of them are watching the fireworks...even Rago was there as watching the fireworks does remind him of his...world but he shook off those thoughts.
Espie had then leaned her head up against Haleakala's shoulder as they continued to watch the fireworks with their hands still interlocked as Haleakala hasn't felt this way...since Yancy, and he enjoys the feeling.
While Espeon on the other hand is starting to wonder what their kids would look like and to her it should be...interesting to say the least.
Change Scene ???
Meanwhile that was going on someone is seen currently resting in a cave after she gotten saved by a wormhole as it shot her out of her demise in her old world as she collapsed up against the cave wall groaning in pain.
She knows that she needs to head to the Pokémon center if she wants to heal up her Pokemon and go after the said Pokémon she was after prior, the girl had groaned as she looked around...this isn't her world that's for sure.
But she knows for certain that the Pokémon she was after beforehand is here as well since it ALSO gotten spat up here, but it was also...somehow stronger, she needs to find a way to defeat it.
This person is known as Audrey and she's from the same verse as Amethyst and she was chasing after a Kyogre.
Audrey:*grits her teeth*dam that Kyogre I'll be sure to defeat you one way or another, but I'm still confused as to how the hell it suddenly gotten stronger. It doesn't matter since I'll have you either way.she declared to herself
But first she needed to rest and find herself a Pokémon center but she'll do that after she goes to sleep.
A/N:this is it for the chapter and well I will be taking a small break from battling...well not really since the next few chapters will involve Audrey and the Kyogre which is an anomaly. As this will be a Project Mew joint mission.
The group will be Quillon,Danika,Regina,Tatsumi,Gary, Horace and Kalakaua. Basically members who can hold their own(Kala is just there since he's with Tatsu).
I already have the kids in mind for both Haleakala and Espie if you guys read the profile since i updated it.
Next chapter is gonna be "Anomaly Mission Pt.1"
Stay tuned✌️
