[6 Days until Sports Festival]
Audino gazed towards the bright blue sky, blinking doe-like at the clouds floating passed laggardly. She stood underneath the shadow of the dormitory, out on the grassy plain with a couple of other Pokémon with her, nervously keeping to herself, as she found more interest on her feet than the rowdy group by her.
Audino clutched on to her right feeler, her left feeler still wrapped in bandages, as her shyness washed over her like a tidal wave. She didn't have quite the guts to get along with the other residents yet, seeing as she was pretty new in the household. The only one she seemed to get along with was...
"Pikachu!" Your voice reached her ears, causing her to instinctively gaze away from her feet, her eyes eagerly trying to pinpoint your location.
You had stood there for a while now, eyes on an electric mouse, a familiar resident in the dormitory, who was getting into a battle stance to a fake human. Audino perked once she saw you, stern-faced and confident, as she awaited what's to come silently, a slim growing excitement brewing curiously.
"Alright Pikachu, let's try this again!" You pointed forward confidently, Pikachu's electricity sparking out from its red-pouch cheeks, as its eyes zeroed on to the current dummy, which looked much like a burnt scarecrow at this point, with complete focus. "Volt tackle!"
"Pikapikapika..." Pikachu launches a battle cry, large volts of electricity surrounding him before he charged right to the dummy without hesitation "Pi-Ka!" With one last cry, it tackled forward, successfully electrifying the lifeless dummy. The dummy in no seconds flat turned to crisp, as the mouse turned to your approval eagerly, yearning for affection.
"Good Job, that's the fifth dummy today!" You placed your hand on your hip proudly, the mouse scampering over to you at your kind tone. You bent down as he jumped to your shoulder for a small cuddle, your hand instinctively reaching a hand to pet him.
"Chaa~" Pikachu squealed happily, causing you to giggle.
Audino's eyes glittered in awe, wide hues locked on to the figure of Pikachu and her human. It's amazing how happy you were with the yellow mouse accomplishments, which she found to be incredible herself. She doesn't quite get it but seeing how much training undergoes, and the amount of disposable dummy thrown.
She guessed you must really want to destroy other humans someday.
She watched in amazement after the attack, it's small form leaning closer without thinking, as she emitted a marveled squeal. "Au~!"
"Sylv-sylv-eon?"
The pinked-skinned Audino barely noticed the Fairy-type Pokémon right next to it, who chirped in a soft-toning voice next to the hearing Pokémon. Audino shied away at the kind Pokémon tilting its head questionably at her. The two stood in almost the same height, as Audino, who happened to be a bit bigger than the fairy type, fumbled with her feeler.
Sylveon blinked, before giving the bashful creature a reassurance stare and nod, that hardly left an effect on the shy Audino. Audino wasn't sure what to say, as suddenly Sylveon was coddling her up in a conversation, that she couldn't quite follow.
"Wow, at this point there'll be no point in training anymore." A haughty voice caught Audino and Sylveon's attention. Meowth, the other Pokémon in the sideline, commented to you, laying down on his side, very similar to the draw-me-like-one-of-your-French-girls pose, as he stared listlessly at you and the yellow mouse, basking in the sunlight, unlike the two pink Pokémon, who stayed under the friendly shade.
You rolled your eyes, walking closer to the creatures with Pikachu right on your shoulder. "There's always a need for training Meowth," Your eyes meeting the leisure feline in a playful glare, "Especially with the Sports Festival right around the corner, we have to give it our best."
With the upcoming Festivity getting closer by the minute, you weren't surprised to say that that's all anyone could talk about. Your classmates were all training energetically, some grouping up to the training grounds in hopes to hone their quirks together, while others were focusing individually after school hours. The class had taken a serious turn over, and you could only anticipate what's to come nervously. Class 1-B, as you observe, have also been honing their skills rather intensely. Perhaps all this time, a one-sided rivalry was brewing after all the chaos in USJ, with the ever-so-precocious Monoma leading the pack to battle.
Besides the hero course students, Shinso himself was indulging himself in self-practice, and Hatsume Mei was going infinity and beyond with her machines. The teachers themselves had been noticeably worn down, as a certain loud-mouthed presenter had lugged passed you this morning with a tight smile plastered on his face, his sunglasses unable to hide his baggy eye-bags. It was pretty amusing to watch, you couldn't lie.
With the wafting enthusiasm filling the school, you had no choice but to work extra hard to not lose to your peers. Even though you weren't feeling as enthusiastic as the rest, you weren't going to half-assed in training. After all, this event was just as important to you as for the Pokémon.
"Psy-psy!" Your eyes darted to Psyduck, who passed you in a hurry, waddling as fast as its little feet could go, as Zorua chased after almost leisurely, prancing after with a few yips of amusement.
"Zorua, stop that." Your voice was left unheard to the playful fox, who continued in their little game of chase. You rolled your eyes at its antics, about to scold the fox again before Pikachu jumped right off your shoulders, giving you a small, confident look, before following after. You could always count on that electric mouse.
Metapod, who used the be a shy Caterpie, was hopping leisurely, causing you to call it curiously. "Hey Metapod, what are you doing." Its eyes glanced at you in a glare, before hopping once more. You sighed, Evolutions really do change Pokémon.
"I know, I know, training's important and all that stuff." Meowth shrugged, stretching its limbs, knocking your focus back to the leisure cat. Rolling on to its tummy, the cat added with a shifty glance. "-But y' know, scouting the enemy is also a pretty good tactic in winning."
Your brows furrowed at the subtle notion before you disregarded the feline's word to stare at the newcomer, Audino. She was uncomfortably standing next to the chipper Sylveon, seemingly trying to calm the Audino and failing to do so, as the hearing Pokémon shifted on her feet.
You calmly went to sit between the creatures, petting each creature on the head, surprising both of them from their discussion. Sylveon neutrally laid her head down on your lap after you ruffled her fur, whereas Audino stiffened at first, before slowly easing up. Your eyes automatically moved to the bandaged feeler, the tinge of sadness crossing your features.
The baby-pink hearing Pokémon, Audino, was improving a whole lot better. After finding her all alone in the rain, you were glad to find that her injuries were overall pretty minor. Other than getting a common cold, her right feeler appeared slightly fractured and had to be wrapped up with bandages for the time being. It should be getter better by now.
"I'm not sure what you're suggesting about Meowth." You, after a small pause that irritated the cat, said, not particularly interested in the conversation altogether. You just felt like enjoying the sunny day with the two adorable Pokémon.
"Well, that's what you get for being a ditz!" Meowth pointed out, eyes narrowed as he fumed. Meowth gazed at Psyduck and Zorua, who came to a stop, Psyduck aimlessly staggering to you before dropping to its bum, leaning on to you tiredly with heaving breath. Zorua, with plenty of energy to use, started circling you as Pikachu finally scampered back, giving you a proud thumb up at herding the two back.
You chuckled at the trio before Meowth interrupted to complain once more. "You could've at least given my preposition a listen." He scratched his neck, stretching leisurely once more.
"Oh Meowth, isn't it time for your training~?" You hummed, raising a brow in his direction with a sly grin, knowing exactly how lazy the feline is. Meowth recoiled as if you shoved stinky cheese at him, his eyes moved to the sky like it was searching for a helicopter.
"W-What? I didn't hear you." Meowth acted deaf, sweating drastically, before berating snarkily. "And you've been training us too hard, I mean just look at us..." He suddenly gestured to himself panicky, before pointing exaggeratedly towards Pikachu. "See! Look how pale Pikachu is!"
You and the rest of the Pokémon gazed at the mouse, who was blinking blankly at you, tilting its head with a squeak.
You sighed through your nose, shaking your head. Apparently, Meowth's been on your tail about this subject for a while now. Not sure why he was so interested in seeing your classmates, but he reasoned that he wanted to get a few peeks on the competition early on, so ALL the Pokémon wouldn't be too surprised upon entering the arena. Of course, it's normal to scout out the enemy beforehand, but Meowth had been particularly insistent as the days passed by.
"Okay, hear me out!" He stood up, standing in front of you, looking ready to present a presentation. In fact, he actually took out a planner, the front page showcasing a chibi version of yourself, Meowth, and Pikachu for some reason. They were even colored neatly for this. 'Oh boy....' You sighed as Audino and Sylveon both stared vaguely, as Pikachu appeared more confused. Whereas Zorua being too excited at a passing butterfly, while Psyduck was nodding off.
"Firstly, to sneak a peek on the enemy's prowess, you'll have to bring us with you." Meowth sent you pointed stare, as he went to the next page. "You'll bring us and we'll stay in the poke balls." You could sense the smallest distaste in Meowth's voice being in the poke ball, but he persevered. You'll give him credit for that.
After that, he turned to the next page, the drawing of little Meowth and Pikachu spying on everyone else. "Then, you let us out, and we watch your classmate's powers in action! The end! Simple! Clean! Man am I a genius or what?" Meowth sure was overly proud of his presentation, as Sylveon and Audino both awed, before clapping agreeably, as you felt the on growing migraine burning in the back of your skull.
"Okay...first," You started. "that was the shortest presentation I was shown and it was able to give me a headache in mere seconds. Second, is there a legitimate reason why you guys need to spy around? I'm already aware of their powers and battle styles anyways." Before Meowth could try to input another reason, you continued, "Third, I already got warned by Aizawa-sensei many times about bringing you guys along. I can't deal with another lecture, not to mention, you're not exactly as fun-sized as Joltik." You complained, sighing.
"W-Wait, come on!" Meowth came in front of you pleadingly. "just a peek! Please, I'm beggin' you here!" Meowth looked ready to hold your leg hostage to get you to agree. You frowned, what was with him?
Audino had peeked near you in an instant, using her uninjured feeler as she moved them towards Meowth curiously. She seemed pretty serious out of the blue, which made you gaped in surprise, as it's surprising to see her being rather forward, as Meowth drew back.
"H-Hey, whatcha doing?" Meowth nervously asked as Audino got closer.
Your eyes lit up a bit realization, after all, you checked the Pokedex on little Audino here before.
Audino: The Hearing Pokémon
A Normal Type
It touches others with the feelers on its ears, using the sound of their heartbeats to tell how they are feeling.
Meowth must've realized this too, as he pushed away Audino harshly when she got to close. Audino plopped down, almost appearing shocked as she was now on her back.
"Meowth!" You scolded before the cat slinked off out of nowhere, which was terribly strange of him. You frowned after him, helping up the limp Audino, putting her back on her feet. You watched as her curious expression took a dejected turn. "Hey, it's okay. Meowth's just a bit...shy." You elaborated, as she could only frown more.
You patted her head, an encouraging smile as you praised her. "But look at that! I'm sure you'll be a great help! Good Job."
Audino, a bit glad by your encouragement, hummed, a cherry mewl coming out of her. You chuckled, but your mind couldn't help but wander back to Meowth, still startled by the way he acted. Perhaps he just didn't want you to know how he was feeling? You weren't too sure, but there was definitely something bothering him.
...You guessed you could bring them to your first hero's class right?
Meanwhile, Pikachu had silently followed Meowth who was frowning at a patch of grass for who knows what. Pikachu stopped next to the feline, silently asking why the cat's acting so odd.
All of a sudden, Meowth pointed to Pikachu. A frustrated expression taking over the cat, before he said. "Listen, help me out, you hear me?"
~o~o~
[4 Days until the Sports Festival]
"(Name)-chan! Good Morning!"
The friendly cheer coming from a certain brunette made you turn around without question. The light sunny glow was shining down on Ochaco today, her cheeks bursting, as she lively made her way to you with one arm raised in a wave. Her eyes fluttered shut, as she skipped over happily, grinning as if there were no wrongdoings in the world at all.
What luck were you blessed to have been greeted by an angel this morning?
At least someone was there to lift your mood. Before you left for school, you decided to bring Meowth. Seeing as he really wanted too, why not. As long as Aizawa-sensei didn't notice, everything's going to be A-Okay! But instead, you couldn't find him all morning. You supposed he was still upset about last time.
It was no sooner than that she was walking side by side to you, your shoulders brushing friendly, as she seemed terribly eager. Her eyes locking with your own, as you smiled politely back.
"Good Morning to you too Ochaco-chan." You replied, before tilting your head curiously. "You look...excited." You blandly added after a small pause.
She awed for a second, the bright grin she had become a permanent resident on her face. "You said my name without stuttering (name)-chan!" She complimented, much to your embarrassment. Was there a need to praise you about that, you couldn't help but thought, before she excitedly raised both of her arms at a second thought, eyes moving to the sky. "And I can't help it, we have hero basic training today!"
You nodded nonchalantly, fixing up your backpack with the slightest disgruntlement. You weren't too sure what's completely exciting about that, finding Ochaco so pumped was odd, but if you remembered clearly, today's lesson involves rescue, clearly to replace the time during USJ attack. Perhaps she found out about today's lesson? After all, Uraraka was quite ecstatic when she heard of the rescue training before, it wouldn't be that surprising to see her motivated today.
"What makes it more exciting though," She suddenly added, as if hearing your mind rambling to yourself, as she stared at you with stars. "Today's your first hero class!" you almost tripped on a non-existence pebble.
"Eh?" You stated incredulity.
"It's going to be your first hero class right?" She tilted her head cutely. "I'm so excited, I can't wait to see what you're going to do!" She was basically shining in eagerness, as she bounced in her steps.
You inaudibly gulped, moving your gaze away from hers' nervously, "A-Ah right."
You completely forgot about the hero class! Or more like you forgot you were going to join this time! You did pack a good amount of Pokémon this time, not hoping to make any mistakes like last time. You muttered a bit, fixing up your backpack once more anxiously.
Noticed your sudden apprehensive mood, Ochaco blinked curiously, watching you from the side how your usually kind and polite smile was twisted to a nervous frown. The brunette mellowed down before she reached over to lightly grasps your hand swinging aimlessly. You glanced at her, as she intertwined your fingers together without a second beat, surprising you slightly.
She smiled brightly once more, clutching your hand tightly in hers. "Don't worry (Name)-chan, you'll be fine." She cheered, swinging both of your arms cheerily. You glimpsed from her to your joint hands for a minute, unsure how to react at first before you squeeze it back softly, thankfully. Ochaco just giggled at that.
You walked all the way to class in a comfy hush, both of your hands still intertwined without Uraraka paying into mind, almost like she forgot you were walking hand in hand. However, you didn't mind, just finding comfort in the silence with her, as your joint hands swung absentmindedly.
Yet even enveloped in this comfy atmosphere, there was a strange unsettling feeling that's been leering around you, or in your gut. Actually, for some reason, why does it feel like you're going to be heavily scolded today. Your mind wandered despairingly, what was wrong with you?
"Hmm..." You voiced wearily, wrapping a loose hand on your bag straps once more, while Uraraka perked at your sudden hum, eyes reaching you in seconds.
"What's wrong (Name)-chan?" She questioned dumbfounded. You hummed in reply before you admitted begrudgingly with a dry smile.
"It's just...my bag feels heavier than I remembered." You crinkled your nose abashedly, fixing your bag once more to relieve the tension on your shoulders, your mouth twisted in slight annoyance. "It's weird, I was sure it wasn't this heavy when I left."
"Hmm-Did you over packed some books maybe?" She questioned, as you mindlessly shook your head, still finding a sinking feeling lingering.
"I don't think so." You stated, moving to scratch your head. You thought about it once more, remembering you just left your backpack by the front door after forgetting to turn the stove off. "Or maybe it's just my imagination..."
"Maybe you're just tired." Ochaco deducted, suddenly eyeing you up with a careful eye. "Were you training maybe?" You flinched.
"...Well, the Pokémon's were." You didn't make direct eye-contact with the brunette, almost feeling embarrassed at your odd answer. She squeezed your hand to try to direct your gaze to hers. Truthfully, you were doing a lot of training with the Pokémon, which was keeping you up a lot, but you weren't doing the hard labor. Your Pokémon were working super hard; the least you could do is support them. "I was just keeping an eye on them...throughout training...that might've lasted a bit longer than intended."
"It's fine really!" You whipped your head to her quickly, giving her the best smile you could muster. "After all, I'm working hard for the Sports Festival." There's a lot that needs to be done if you were preparing for the festival, so sadly, there weren't many times for breaks.
Ochaco hadn't reacted at first, frown-pouting at the noticeable lack of rest by your pale face. But a bright smile slowly rose, understanding your reasoning, as she giggled at your strange enthusiasm.
"Then let's do our best at the Sports Festival (name)-chan!" You nodded back animatedly, walking with stride before you tiredly messed with your bag's straps. You frowned.
Why do you still feel anxious? You felt a weird slither at your back, and that was a bad omen. It was as if you could sniff the terrible luck coming after you, making you wonder briefly what's to transpire if bad vibes still circulated you.
Hmm...Actually didn't you see a Murkrow last night?
Murkrow: Darkness Pokémon
A Dark and Flying Type
Feared and loathed by many, it is believed to bring misfortune to all those who see it at night.
"Something horrendous is going to befall on me this day..." You blurted out suddenly, as Ochaco perked in surprise, stupefied at your dead-faced expression, deflating with each step you took as you shivered involuntarily. "This is definitely a bad omen."
"Bad omen, befall...(name)-chan, you sound like Tokoyami-kun..." She murmured, rubbing her hand under her chin at the thought. You were too occupied with your own delirious thoughts to reply to that, floundering towards the class.
"Good Morning Deku-kun!" Ochaco suddenly cheered out, as you warily raised your head to see the familiar broccoli head. Midoriya flinched before he turned around, smiling awkwardly. You just realized you both had made it into the class, where the others were chatting among themselves in their seats.
"Uh-g-good morning-!" Midoriya had arrived a bit earlier than you two, greeting both of you shyly. He glanced at you, suddenly red-faced. You would probably mention it, like honestly, why does this boy keep heating up as if the summer waves were killing him, but you were still restlessly contemplating. Midoriya's blush subsided upon realizing your grim look, and your especially pale skin, as a look of worry crossed his features causing him to come closer unsurely. "(Last name)-san? Are you okay?"
"It's nothing. There's just darkness shrouding me today, I think its best you stray away from me." You replied apathetically, the dullest stare you owned was fixated to the boy, as you fixed your backpack one last time. Midoriya blinked perplexedly before turning to the cherry brunette, who might provide a more accurate version to your rather unusual wording.
"There's a bad omen surrounding (name)-chan!" That hardly helped, Midoriya couldn't help but thought in disarray. Uraraka copied the words you said earlier, the only difference was enthusiasm, which still wasn't helping Deku in understanding the situation in the slightest. Uraraka continued after, simmering down to bring her finger-up as if she was telling a lecture. "I think (name)-chan's just tired though, so don't worry too much Deku-kun."
"But why's she talking a bit like Tokoyami-kun...," Midoriya interjected, the green-headed almost sure the bird heard him before he continued to eye you worriedly. That's when he noticed, finally catching sight of something that made him stare blankly. His body rigid, blushing to his ears as his gaze noticeably lowered causing you and Uraraka to follow his gaze curiously.
Your joint hands.
Oh yeah, you almost forgot you were still holding each other's hands. You watched as Midoriya mouth gaped open and close, muttering and stuttering, unsurely. Uraraka was staring a bit blankly, watching Midoriya's reaction in confusion. She lifted your hand a bit, tilting her head.
"What's wrong Deku-kun?" She questioned dubiously, as you stared in concern making him fumble more with his words, before waving it off vigorously, nervously chuckling, probably at overreacting, before he pointed out.
"Ah-it's nothing! It just...you guys are really close..." The more he spoke, the more awkward he felt. Uraraka blinked blankly at your joint hands, then blinked once more in confusion.
"Eh!" She pulled away quickly, the smallest blush tinting her feature as she apologized, "(Name)-chan, sorry I held your hand too long!" She played with her fingers in embarrassment, not meeting your eyes.
"...It's fine, friends hold hands too..." You basically muttered as the two others ignored your assurance. Of course, holding hands are normal-to an extent. But what both Midoriya and Uraraka found alarming was how your fingers intertwined. It was just so...intimate. They both blew a fuse.
With a nonchalant shrug, you pulled off your bag, having enough of its weight, as you plopped it down without a word. You almost did a double-take when it made a small 'oof!', like a grunt, when you turned to Midoriya without a worry.
"I'm really fine though Midoriya-kun..." You friendly patted his shoulder, as Midoriya got stiffer. "I just have this bad feeling something's going to happen today." Eyes moving unconsciously to your backpack, when you commented after. "And, I probably sound like Tokoyami-kun because he and I been getting a lot closer as of late."
You weren't wrong. You have actually been hanging out with Tokoyami much more, mostly due to the fact Dark Shadow becomes a moth following you around excitedly, much to Tokoyami dismay. It's a work in progress apparently, but Tokoyami's working hard to keep the shadowed being on bay even when you're around, and you would come along to help out. It appears Tokoyami is a strong contender for the sports festival.
"A-Ah, I see." Midoriya finally sighed in relief, and Uraraka's embarrassment was washed away. Looking at the class, there doesn't seem to be anything terrible as you were expecting. Perhaps you were a bit tired, that's all, and there was nothing bad that was going to happen.
...You thought that too soon.
"Class is about to begin!" Iida appeared out of complete nowhere, staring at the three of you with a reprimand on his tongue, as Ochaco puffed her cheeks out in a pout. "Please get to your seats!"
"Oh c' mon Iida-kun, we were just talking a bit." Iida wasn't swayed at Ochaco's complaint. You and Midoriya could only watch from the sidelines as they bantered a bit, causing you to share a small smile with the greenette, chuckling a bit at the class president's antic when your bag rustled.
You were beginning to think you were seeing things now, but Midoriya also looked mildly surprised, meeting your eyes for a second once more, when the backpack rustled again. There was now a full-blown battle in your bag it seems, and this had stopped Uraraka and Iida in their own banter, as you could only piece together all the evidence right in front of you.
The Heavy bag. Occasional rustling. The bad feeling....
...those idiots.
You marched to your bag without a word, not stopping at Midoriya's hesitant words, as you ripped your backpack indifferently. A certain feline jumped out of the bag in a battle cry, loud enough to garner the attention of almost everyone in the class, as Meowth snarled. He probably had no idea he jumped out of the bag and was heading straight towards you.
"This is what you get you!" Meowth exclaimed., his eyes were shut as he sheathed its claws. He was stopped, actually, Meowth felt as if he was floating in mid-air, as he peeked his eyes open, where light flooded his vision, and right in front of him holding him in the air, was you, with the most menacing look on your face he had ever seen.
"Gwak!" Meowth was sweating all over, his mouth opening and closing like a fish, unable to make a noise, as it stared at his surroundings with his mouth agape. Your classmates were staring at him incredulously, as he chuckled abruptly "Wh-What a coincidence to see you here B-Boss!" He was waving his arms around, making wild gestures. Meowth was beginning to see the light, you hadn't even pummeled him to his grave but he's already seeing an angel that strangely resembled him, floating, invitingly telling him to follow the winged feline.
"Meowth." You drawled, Meowth shivering relentlessly, as he gulped down loudly, making direct eye-contact to your eyes. It was as if he was staring at a demon himself. "What a pleasant surprise to see you here." Your words held a different meaning, he was 100% you meant,
'I'm gonna make a lovely fur-coat soon~' You leered down at him eerily with a pair of scissors, snipping them continuously with the most devious cackle. Meowth screamed internally {Meowth's Imagination}
He's going to die.
Meowth gritted his sharp incisors, his cat-eyes glancing to the other hideaway in your backpack, glaring relentlessly at the other Pokémon. This was all his fault! Meowth couldn't help but pointedly grumble at the mouse, before warily staring at the demon in front of him. Funny, you looked exactly like that devil in that movie he just watched, a rather forbidding energy wafting out of you, spinning in a tumor as your eyes were practically red. {This is also Meowth's imagination...or is it?}
And then...
He was lifted out of your arms and into another, just as he was ready to accept his death, where he was held up in the air by a pink-skinned girl with horns, or maybe it's an angel? The female grinned up at him, as he was held up like Simba from the lion king, cherry blossoms blooming in the background, making him blink around with wide eyes in confusion. What was going on? Did he actually dead? What even is he?
"Mina...I think you shouldn't hug him too hard..." Back to reality, you raised your hand to stop the excited pink-skinned girl, almost feeling absolutely drained in the process. Mina ignored your suggestion, spinning around Meowth, who's expression was clouded as if it died, in excitement, honestly what was she so excited about? Just earlier, you were about to 'lightly' scold the feline for sneaking into your bag like that. It's no wonder your bag was heavier than expected, you were carrying all of your textbooks with a stowaway Pokémon within.
And just like that, in no seconds flat, almost literally everyone had risen from their chairs, much to Iida's disapproval, and made their way to the new guest, excitement and interested in more way than you can discern. Meowth looked dead-eyed as it was being crushed into an excited hug of Mina's, who was babbling how cute Meowth was.
"...Well, I guess this is to be expected." You shrugged with a tired sigh, turning to Midoriya in attempt to start a conversation, only to be struck in dread when you saw Midoriya taking out his notebook from who knows where, writing feverishly as he muttered ominously, creating his own bubble of mumbles. Many strayed away from this one.
You sweat-dropped, "Right, don't get too excited now Midoriya-kun..." You remembered how curious Midoriya had been about the Pokémon, but somehow he never found the time to actually ask you about them, so you left him to turn to the brunette instead. "Ne, Ochaco-chan-?"
Oh, wait, Ochaco's actually disappeared from your side, now right where Mina is, gushing excitedly as if she was seeing a new species for the first time, which is understandably true you guessed. Most of the girls had made a circle around the dead-beat Meowth, while the others were staring curiously from afar. You warily searched for Iida, who seemed to be the most unchanging when it comes to this. "Um...Iida-kun...?"
And the engine-quirked male was already trying to stop everyone, reprimanding them to get to their seats before class began.
You felt yourself beginning to deflate. What has become of your class...?
You came closer to the feline, the current reason why everyone was acting so odd, who was staring dully at the ground like a ragged doll. You tilted your head curiously at that, tapping its head for its attention. Mina blinked up at you as if you were Arceus itself.
"(Name)-chan! Why didn't you tell us you brought a Pokémon?" She seemed extra jittery, which was definitely an extra boost to her usual jitteriness. Mina's raccoon eyes were gleaming excitedly, looking over at the cat in almost awe. "He's so cute!"
"I see..." You replied unsurely, as Hagakure was now the second to cheer. "It's nice to see another Pokémon!" She was clearly talking about the exeggutor living in the field, who popped out from time to time to greet everyone before Bakugo scared it away.
"Doesn't he look a bit, dead though...?" Jiro commented, getting closer curiously, but was the one just standing close by awkwardly, rubbing the side of her arm. You agreed with the purplette, as you went a bit closer.
"Excuse me..." The others moved away before you tapped Meowth's head once more. "Hey Meowth, you're going to wake up now?" You watched as the feline finally gain some life back to his eyes, as he tilted his head to stare at your spine-chilling form. You nodded when you realized you got his attention. "Come on, we need to talk a bit." You held out your hand when-
"H-Hey ladies!" Meowth suddenly yelped, and Hagakure awed dumbstruck. You narrowed your eyes, what was he doing? The feline made a cutesy pose, raising its paws up innocently, as he mustered up his cutest-look. "Aren't I cute...nya~?"
Silence enveloped everyone, you almost choked after watching the strange actions from the tomcat, when Ochaco blurted in surprise. "So I wasn't hearing it, He really talked!"
Now more people were surrounded Meowth as if he was a celebrity himself as you were pushed back to your original spot. You gawped, bewildered when you finally caught sight of a coddled up feline, who was being completely pampered out of nowhere. You watched as the cat did other cutesy moves, quickly gaining everyone's heart when for a second, your eyes met.
And you couldn't believe your eyes when Meowth gave you the smuggest grin he could offer.
Your eye twitched. You should've finished the cat when you had the chance, as Meowth kept on giving you cocky stares. Your annoyance was evident, but not as evident as Mineta who was seething in rage. The guy lost to a cat after all.
"...That cat sure is relishing the attention, huh?" You mumbled spitefully, rolling your eyes as Meowth was cuddled even further. The feline making various bright smiles at everyone. The only ones who weren't in the circle were probably the more reserved ones; Tokoyami and Shoji, and of course, the two who probably didn't care in the slightest; Emotionless-prince Todoroki and Screaming-all-the-time Gremlin Bakugo.
While everyone was distracted, and you were trying to find multiple ways to ends Meowth once and for all, a certain red-head leaned closer to you with a curious stare. "So that's a Pokémon huh?"
You jumped, whirling to come across the pointy-teeth redhead, embarrassedly rubbing the back of his head after surprising you unintentionally. "You surprised me, Kirishima-kun." You replied to his question, frowning a bit, only making him chuckle nervously.
"Ah-Sorry, sorry!" Pressing his hands together in an apology, covering his face in the process. Kirishima was another person that was incredibly sunny, like Uraraka, that you can't help but simmer down from your pout, while Kirishima peeked away from his hands to cheekily grin your way.
He's so pure.
Kirishima suddenly pointed out to the feline, pointing over. "But that's a Pokémon, right? So it has a quirk?"
"Meowth is a Pokémon, and all Pokémon have powers." You explained with a small shrug, watching as Kirishima seemed to gleam brightly. Just like an excited dog, he raised a fist animatedly.
"Woah!" Kirishima grinned from ear to ear, eyeing the blabbering feline. Meowth's ego had bloated now by 10 folds, showing off now how he could stand on his two feet. You sighed, shaking your head, before moving your gaze back at the red-head. Anything was more interesting than Meowth at this moment, in fact, you can't help but be dumbfounded as you stared at Kirishima.
He was a literal puppy. You were sure his invisible tail was wagging vigorously, as he stared at the scene with the most excited eyes. Now that you think about it, doesn't Kirishima remind you of someone? Or more like a Pokémon? You narrowed your eyes, picking at your lips as you observed blatantly. That's right, Kirishima reminds you of...
"...Rockruff, maybe?" You muttered, speaking terribly soft, but much to your surprise, Kirishima heard you anyways.
"What did you say?"
"Nothing!" You yelped, noticing most of the boys not too far, chatting among themselves. Kaminari was rubbing his chin attentively, an intrigued smile adorning his feature. Sero seemed pretty invested himself, his body angling sideways, as he gave his trademark triangle smile.
"So the Pokémon really differ from one another huh? That's cool, they're just like animals." Kaminari complemented, crossing his arms as if he solves the easiest math question on the board, which was pretty proud mind you. You chuckled slyly when Sero commented right after.
"Not bad, the cat's got all of their attention in a heartbeat. He even beat you." Sero mused as Kaminari's interested grin took a grim standpoint, firing back to the cheeky male, as Kaminari stood with his arms down, upset.
"Well, it's not fair, animals always win!" Kaminari argued, pointing out to the circle of cuddles. Which was mostly the girls at the cat. Mineta wasn't too far, frustrated pointing out, "What's so great about animals anyway?"
"What's not great about animals?" Kirishima came along, causing the muttering trio to peer behind curiously. He boastfully raised a fisted hand. "It can talk!" He explained, as Kaminari pouting as the less reasonable explanation.
"Dude, animals can't talk." Kaminari murmured with a frown, causing you to chuckle at the odd conversation. Just where was this debate going?
Kaminari perking up considerably when he noticed you were here too, that proud smile of his rose, asking interestedly, "(Last)-chan, do all the Pokémon speak?" while the others listened curiously. "It must be pretty normal right?"
You hummed loudly as if you were thinking hard, before you answered blatantly, "Meowth's the only Pokémon I actually know, that knows how to talk in human speech." This knocked both Kaminari and Mineta off their feet knowing Meowth was 'special', which he is. Sero snickered at the duo's distress.
"B-But you know," you started, the corner of your lips lifting. "The only reason he talks is because he tried to woo a female cat who actually preferred human. Hence why he walks like us, and talks like us. He lived as a stray before, and had a female companion he adored."
"...Eh?" Kaminari blurted, pausing for a second before placing a hand on his head. "So, he learned to talk cause of a girl?" He stared incredulously, almost touched. Mineta blurting out in next second with his mouth agape, "So that chum is just like us?"
"He decided to learn to talk and walk for that? That's so manly." You watched as Kirishima had teared up a bit, Sero patting the male in the shoulder with a solemn nod of his head. You sweat-dropped with an awkward laugh, as Kaminari was all of a sudden getting relieved.
"Well since he's like us, I guess I could understand." Kaminari solemnly suggested as you nodded your head, pleased. You patted the side of his arm kindly, smiling widely. "That's the spirit, Kaminari-kun!" Though the bitter part of your tongue kind of wanted to spite on Meowth and spite him.
Kaminari blushed a bit, before vigorously rubbing the back of his head in embarrassment. He loudly cleared his throat, making Sero and Mineta roll their eyes at the obvious action, before Kaminari advanced a bit closer, peering curiously at you.
"How's training for you, by the way, do you need some extra help?" He suggested, pointing to his open palmed hand with a bright grin you could only smile amusedly. Although you found the thought endearing, you politely declined his offer. Mineta offered to help, raising his hand before he was shut off by Sero.
"It's fine Kaminari-kun, I think I can manage." You announced as Kaminari nods his head, the tinge of disappointment crossing his feature before he puffed out his chest once more.
"I see, I see. But y' know if you change your mind, don't be afraid to ask!" He grinned proudly, pointing his thumb to himself proudly. "I'll help out right away, I'll be there as quick as lightning!" you mindlessly nodded to his offer.
You were entirely thankful for the kind gesture, but your mind just can't help but wander to a certain electric Pokémon, that was replacing Kaminari's place. They are definitely more alike than you thought.
Or maybe you were just taking this similarity between Pokémon and your classmates to far...?
The bag made a rustle once more, which was almost earth-shattering cause you found exactly who was the culprit, but that nonetheless made you more curious. You noticed a conspicuous lightning tail poking out, sticking out like a sore thumb as you chuckled once you realized the situation.
"So you were here as well Pikachu." The tail comically flinched, as you could see it sweating already. The tail dived back into the bag, rustling a bit before coming to a complete standstill. "I already saw you." You called out, but Pikachu didn't make any more noises.
"What's wrong (last)?" Sero asked the other guys hadn't noticed what was going on.
You without hesitation walked over to open the bag wider to meet a sheepish mouse, staring up at you as you only smirked with a small tut.
You were amused as it shamefully down-casted its expression, guilt-ridden and depressed as you tucked your hand under his underarm, picking him up effortlessly. "Was that why Meowth was shouting earlier? You, him and I need to have a chat after this." You sighed, holding the mouse close to you.
Pikachu's ears drooped at being caught, not hesitating to cuddle on to your chest to probably get on your good side, much to your amusement. You giggled, Kaminari who came over to investigate questioned you after placing a hand on your shoulders.
"Hey (last)-chan, what's-huh?" The electric boy gawked at the electric mouse in surprise, as Pikachu gazed back blankly.
"Pi?" Pikachu tilted his head.
Kaminari and Pikachu stared at each other with their own surprised expression.
You blinked. Ah, the two Pikachu's finally met.
As they stared at each other, you hardly realized as another stilled silence echoed across the students of 1-A, something you hadn't paid much attention too since you were far to focus on the electric mouse. Now that you think about it, they all were seemingly staring at you.
You blinked in everyone's direction, before giving Pikachu a confused look, which he shrugged his itty bitty shoulders back with a 'Pika?' as you turned back to the group of silent students.
"it's..." Uraraka was the first to point out, eyes wide.
"so," Hagakure peeked over, sparkling if you squint hard enough.
"cute!!~" Mina pointed over in awe.
And with those last words, you were being attacked, Kaminari guffawing as he got caught. "Woah, wait a sec guys!" He attempted to calm the crowd.
You yelped loudly, Pikachu scampering over to your head in surprise. Meowth, who was still glorying in his sudden attention, probably the first time he got attention, cried out once everyone had moved their attention to the mouse.
"H-Hey, there's no need to leave!" Meowth cried, but it was too late, and he was left groveling on all fours, a depressed aura surrounding him.
The class was slowly becoming a petting zoo, and you could already hear Iida's disapproval to the class's chaotic state. You honestly felt a bit bad for ruining the class's peacefulness, but it was interesting to see everyone's excited eyes. And, they never really have been officially introduced to them yet...
Well, you guessed you could let the group have a bit of fun.
You gently picked the mouse off your head, holding him in front of you. Pikachu didn't quite react, just giving you a side glance every now and then, as you gave it a reassuring nod. Pikachu was pretty friendly, so you weren't reluctant to introduce them to the group.
"(last)-san, is this a ...electric type?" Midoriya questioned, curiously, after all, he was the only one that knew more about the Pokémon compared to the rest. You nodded.
"it's so cute!" Uraraka gushed, leaning in to look at the mouse gazing up at her. Mina even poked its cheek with an awed grin.
You just chuckled at the positive reaction. "Well, I know this is late, since someone-," Your glare appointed to Meowth, who stiffened after a loud yelp. "-wouldn't listen to me." You gave a close-eyed smile.
"So...This is Pikachu, and he's a Pokémon." You gestured to the mouse, who smiled without question, you let him jump to your shoulder, friendly grinning at everyone. "To put it simply, Pokémon have certain types, ranging from water, grass, to dark and all kinds."
You were sure everyone nodded their head as if you were a lecturer, listening attentively. "Each type has its advantages and disadvantages to other types. And this Pokémon right here is an electric type."
"Pika-Pikachu!" Pikachu introduced, as the girls gushed once more, as the mouse place a paw on his heart, and another as a wave in a wide cheery smile. You then gazed at the solemn Meowth, before giving another introduction.
"Oh, and the cat you just met, that's Meowth. He's a normal type. Don't pay much to him." You briefly explained with a less than enthusiastic stare.
"Hey-At least be more passionate!" Meowth rambled, as you sighed through your nose.
"Anyways," You plopped Pikachu on the teacher's desk. "He's all yours."
Pikachu didn't appear to be bothered at first in being the center of attention as suddenly Mina came up, squeezing it cheeks, causing the mouse to sweat nervously as he was being squished up. "aww~ He's really adorable!"
You walked away, staring a bit as Pikachu just acted like his usual self, cheerily causing everyone to communicate easily with the Pikachu. Well, it's more like their acting like their talking to babies or dogs. You made sure to haughtily stare at Meowth this time, where you found him mildly dead.
"Man, I'll always lose in terms of cuteness huh?" Meowth murmured, with dead-fish eyes, as you shook your head at him in mock disappointment.
"So...How's it like to be on the other end of the stick?" Meowth grumbled a bit, but he didn't try to retort. Your joshing expression simmered, as your hand automatically landed on the sullen cat's head, ruffling it carefully. "Now, do you mind telling me why are you so hung about this?"
Meowth stayed silent before peering up a bit with a tinge of innocence. "About what?"
The fact your expression switched to disdain so quickly made Meowth quickly add in fear. "OK-ay, I was just getting the jitters for the festival alright. Geez!" He spoke rather quickly, refusing to look at you.
You blinked. He was nervous about the sports festival?
You didn't have time to restrain yourself from snickering. Meowth, of course, brushed off your hand, his cheeks tinging a red glow in what you assumed was embarrassment before he pointed at you accusingly.
"S-See, man I knew this would happen!" He grumbled, crossing his arms as you attempted to halt you small tittering.
"Sorry, sorry, I just didn't expect that." You once again ruffled his head, but he wasn't so accepting after your tease. "I'm as nervous as you as well, not gonna lie." You said with a small shrug, as you caught Meowth's ears twitching, much to your amusement. "But we'll be fine, you're a cat that can talk, that's saying something right? Give me a bit of credit here."
There was a comforting silence that hung, before the tomcat heaved a sigh, a huge sigh of relief. You let out another chuckle this time before you added with a hint of curiosity.
"But here's my question, why are you so nervous about the sports festival when you weren't going to battle anyway."
Meowth hardly reacted at first, only looking at you tiredly at first, before his expression comically took a blow and he fell on his back with a thump. "Guwah!? But what was all that training for all those times!?" Meowth stared at you as if you killed his entire family, as you 'oohed'.
"Oh, you mean like last time?" You questioned, as Meowth vigorously nodded in attempt to speed your answer. You paused, before covering up your mouth mockingly. "I just wanted to tease you of course."
Meowth blew up in a fit rage, deciding that he should just walk out of the situation, The growing embarrassment visible on his features. "Darn it, I'm leaving." He huffed, only to stop when you pet his fur, maybe as a form of apology.
"Hey, you were being pretty haughty for some reason." Never mind, this wasn't an apology, as you shrugged your shoulders. "But I apologize for not realizing sooner you were feeling anxious." His ears perked. Your gaze landed back to Pikachu, who was now being smothered by Tooru, with an anxious Momo watching much to your amusement.
You stated right after, surprising Meowth. "And just because you're not getting attention anymore, doesn't mean you aren't cute."
Meowth looked close to tearing up, his eyes watering a bit, as this time he was about to launch at you with an attack hug. "(Nam-,"
"Ah." you reputed, giving another one of your famous closed-eyed smile, looking a little too gleefully. "But if you pulled off another stunt like this, I'm seriously going to end you." Meowth paused mid-jump, standing a bit far away, sweating. "Did I make myself clear, Meowth?"
Meowth yelped, "Y-Yes Boss!"
You nodded your head in approval, allowing the feline to finally slink of away. You huffed through your nose before you finally heard a loud huff behind you. You glanced back at the proud blonde, one shoe on his desk. His narrowed, and rather frightening, eyes met yours before he ridiculed. "Nice show."
You didn't comment back, staring at him rather intensely, which slightly put him off before you found yourself tilting your head a bit. "Ah, were you here from the start, Bakugo-san?"
"Of course I fucking was- I sit here!" Bakugo barked back, the demon face he owned appearing as quick as a magic trick.
You awed as if you got a new revelation. "You really do look like a Mankey you know..." Before leering closer, placing a hand under your chin. "But frankly when you're really mad, you look more like Primeape, except you're much scarier."
"What the fuck are you talking about?!" Bakugo wasn't amused, somehow he still felt insulted, and he hadn't the slightest clue what you were mumbling to yourself. He barked back after a while, pointing off in another direction with his thumb. "Now scram fussbudget!"
You smiled, tightly, the nervous knot fixing around your stomach. "Sorry, sorry." You raised both of your hands, showing you were backing off. Attempting to walk away, you halted when you heard Bakugo murmured, or more like mumbled.
"So the animals have types huh?" It seemed like he was talking to himself, but you didn't care as you did a twirl leering closer in anticipation, your eyes lighting up a bit.
"Oh, are you interested?" Your felt warmed at the fact Bakugo had made a comment altogether, the boy obviously caught off guard as you interrupted his train of thoughts excitedly. "The Pokémon actually have many types! They all have special move set they can learn over time, with proper training of course. Although everyone calls them animals, there are Pokémon that appeared as inanimate objects! Like a balloon, and-,"
Bakugo wasn't sure how, but now you were all over him about Pokémon. He actually sat dumbfounded, as he listened to you ramble on and on. You sure act like that Deku, something Bakugo was slightly pissed about. You should probably stop hanging out with Deku at this point. But the only difference with Deku's rambling was that you looked rather cute.
Bakugo wanted to smash his head into the desk for even thinking that.
"Who the fuck cares!" Bakugo was quick to retort back, grumbling with a click of his tongue. "I don't care about your dumb critters."
You pouted, stopping your endless rambles as you crossed your arms. Well, it was expected Bakugo would make a comment like that, after all, it's Bakugo. Then again, weren't you going to walk away to stay away from the slightly, very, frightening guy just a few seconds ago. You got so excited hearing Bakugo's comment that you rambled too much, and now Bakugo was annoyed. You scratched the corner of your cheek as you realized.
Bakugo looked away with a huff, much like a wild animal, as you rubbed the back of your head embarrassedly. "Ah, sorry again Bakugo-san, I'll be going now." You walked away after a small nod.
This time, you really walked away, oblivious to the fact Bakugo's eyes strayed back to your form after a while. Bakugo cursed himself right there and then.
Coming back to the crowd surrounding the Pokémon, you were now witnessing as Meowth had joined Pikachu on the desk, sitting on the edge with one leg crossed over the other as he was talking with a smirk. Whereas Pikachu was discreetly eyeing Kaminari, as his face was being squished together.
"Boss complimented me earlier and said I was the cutest Pokémon she had." Meowth boasted as Tooru nodded agreeably, Pikachu only rolled its cute round eyes.
'Oh' Did you just hear that right? As you suddenly spawned right next to him, who yelped loudly. "Meowth. Zip it." You ordered.
"Yes, Ma'am." With another silence, you could finally breathe. This was a little too much excitement for the early morning, you decided when Uraraka gazed with awe.
"They really listened to you huh (name)-chan?" Ochaco fisted her hands, an eager gleam. "I can't wait to see you in action." As she imitated a fighter, doing imitating of fighting moves. Midoriya nodded, a shy smile adorning his freckled face.
"She was really cool in USJ." He complimented, much to your embarrassment.
"I also can't wait to see what these cuties can do." Mina pumped, her raccoon eyes meeting yours, she placed her hands on her hips, a look a pride. "I bet they're pretty strong."
"Which could trouble us instead," Tokoyami commented.
Jiro had scrutinized a bit at the electric mouse a bit as if she was thinking, causing you to stare at her curiously, which she noticed. She questioned a bit, twirling one of her ear jacks. "Y'know, doesn't this one look a bit like someone we know?"
There was a sudden pause at the intruding question. And that was when everyone, and I meant everyone, moved their gaze simultaneously to Kaminari, who drew back, angling his head sideways before asking a loud, 'What?'. Then everyone fixed their stare back at Pikachu's cute face, who tilted its head with a, 'Pi?'.
"Woah, the similarity is uncanny!" Sero jumped in, cackling as he pointed out with tears in his eyes. Mineta and Kirishima guffawing a bit, as Kaminari just looked more confused.
"It's true right?" Jiro joked, placing her hand on your shoulders as you found yourself laughing a bit.
"It was the first thing that came to mind, honestly." You sneakily informed as Jiro snickered right after your comment.
"Eh, really?!" Kaminari pointed to himself, looking at Pikachu before he rubbed the back of his nape. You nodded a bit, sniggering still, as Kaminari's pout morphed into a discreet smile at your laughter.
It was a surprise when Kaminari all of a sudden wrapped an arm around your shoulders, pulling you closer to him which made Jiro's hand dropped unceremoniously.
"Well, I don't really mind if you think so." Kaminari shrugged, grinning widely, the natural flirty smile he gave often fixated to you as you gazed up at him, a bit startled.
"Oi! Kaminari!" Jiro pointed out with a frown at Kaminari's sudden action. "You shouldn't do that all of a sudden."
Kaminari gazed back at Pikachu, thinking about it. "I guess we Electric-type should click." He mused, nodding as he was slowly getting exactly what everyone was thinking about.
Pikachu gazed for a while, before scampering over. Kaminari, thinking the mouse was coming over to him, leaned down with a large smile, greeting the mouse eagerly. When Kaminari was within eye-level, Pikachu continued scampering in his direction, much to your surprise.
"Pikachu...?" you mumbled.
Kaminari smiled, a friendly and inviting look as he said to the mouse, who was getting closer. "Hey little dude, let's get al-,"
And that's exactly when Pikachu slapped him with his tail in the process.
You gaped, at this action, realizing too late when you noticed the incoming move. The electricity was the least of the troubles, and Pikachu probably realized it would be ineffective. So the mouse decided to you use the move, iron tail, something that he's been working on, as it slapped Kaminari right across the face.
Pikachu saw it all with its small eyes. Meowth didn't really care about the situation, rather than that it was more like he was being completely inattentive of the situation but Pikachu saw it all. When he stared at Kaminari, he realized. When he saw you wrapping his arm around your shoulders a little too friendly, he knew. When he gave that smile, he was aware.
Pikachu did not like this guy.
Kaminari fainted. The room was filled with shock, and a pin could drop any minute and you would've heard it a mile away. Others were calling out at Kaminari as if he died, some were awing at Pikachu's powers, others howled in laughter. Bakugo was cackling with a sneer, and Todoroki was close to sleeping.
"P-Pikachu!" You rushed over, scolding the angered mouse as Meowth covered his mouth, laughter bubbling out, as the cat pointed over at your dead classmate.
"Pfft, Wow, that's the first time I saw Pikachu get annoyed that much!" The feline loudly cackled this time. This was getting out of hand, and you couldn't but wonder.
Just where is Aizawa-sensei?
And speak of the devil, he shall appear. Ripping the sliding door open to be greeted and chaos, as you cursed yourself for even calling the man subconsciously.
Your gut was right; you were going to get scolded heavily.
~o~o~
Omake:
(In the middle of the night, before school)
Pikachu squinted his eyes as a flashlight was shone down at him. The mouse blinked its eyes restlessly to be greeted by Meowth's face.
You were already out, sleeping soundly on your bed, and Pikachu desperately wanted to cuddle with you. But no, he was forced to be hiding in a closet, with a feline that looked like he hadn't slept a wink, cackling evilly like a witch.
"Alright, so here's the plan." Meowth had created another planner, sitting on a small pedestal as Pikachu sighed, shaking its head deliriously.
"Pika, Pikachu?" he said tiredly.
"What? No, we can't sleep! To make this work, we need to work together." Pikachu glared, puffing its cheeks as Meowth got right to his explanation.
"Since the boss ain't gonna be much help to us, we'll have to improvise," Meowth whispered. "First, we distract boss with the stove." Pikachu didn't look amused at the terrible drawing, that looked completely rushed, as Meowth commented. "Humans always forget to turn off the stove, I'm sure she won't figure us out."
"Then we sneak into her bag!" He mischievously grinned, as if he won the lottery. Sliding to the next slide, Pikachu yawned. "When she gets to school, we'll slink away from her bag." He pointed out.
"Where we'll peek at the brats at UA." Meowth was getting prouder by the minute, as he spoke with confidence. "Then we'll get caught by the Bos-wait!" He stared back at his presentation as if it grew two heads.
Meowth suddenly chuckled, cackling in embarrassment. Pikachu once again was not amused. This embarrassment took a turn to anger right after. "Don't look at me like that! We're not getting caught!" Meowth huffed, before chucking the planner to the nearest trash bin. who messed with his planner darn it?!
"We won't get caught, you can count on me on that! So please help me!" Meowth pointed to himself proudly, before he begged almost tearily, the bag under the cat's eyes was too obvious. Pikachu paused, staring at the awaiting cat, before reluctantly nodding along after a small sigh, much to the delight of the cat. "I knew I could count on you, Pikachu!"
Pikachu finally scampered away. Staring at the cat who was getting more riled up for the next day.
Well as long as he doesn't get caught, it'll be fine, right?
~o~o~
Thank you all for your patience everyone. I was finally able to complete this chapter after these few months, and I can finally say, I kinda like this chapter, after many drafts.
Honestly, this chapter was supposed to handing out the ova, but then the chapter would end up too long, so I decided to move it to the next chapter. I know everyone's excited about the Sports Festival, But I hope you'll bear with me for a while.
So, I wanted to get into more depth in Meowth. Some of you might have realized that the backstory of Meowth is the same one with original team rocket Meowth. And sike to everyone who thought Pikachu and Kaminari were going to get along from the start. Lololol. This was a little fun filler that I wanted to add for a while, and honestly, I gave a lot of hints on what's going on the sports festival, so be on your toes!
Thank you once again for your support, I honestly can't promise quick updates, but I'll try my best.
Cute Fanart from Aua in Quotev. Thank you so much, it's adorable!
