Oh Cae

Oh Cae

Leo and his friends stay in a Celestial Center for hours...

Brandi walks to Nurse Joy from the waiting room, "Excuse me... is our friend okay?!". She smiles "Oh, you're with Champion Leonard, right?". She shook her head yes, the Nurse replied "He's healing quickly, luckily he's a Champion: It's almost like "something" heals us faster when one reaches that status. He'll be fine soon!", Brandi sighs "Thanks...". She walks back to her friends "She says he'll be fine soon!", Matt sighed "Thank goodness!". Aspen sighes "He'll be out soon?", Jamie adds "Yes... wil be 100%?". Brandi replied "Yeah... she said since he IS A champion, he'll be back soon... it's as if he needed to rest and that's it...", Wallace leers "He's a Champion, of course he's fine! With the rank comes power to regenerate even after fatal injuries, we wouldn't be able to be legends if we couldn't stand small things, such as Burns!". Brandi sat down again "I wish she was as calm as you... It's like there's no hope for her...", she looks at Celia crying... Wallace smiles "It's alright... once he stands... she'll be fine!", Brandi adds "Yeah... Celia it's okay... don't cry...". They sit as they wait to hear when Leo gets up... Celia thought as she cries... "I hurt Leo... I screwed him up, by not completely returning his feelings... If I loved him, he would've evolved and he could've beaten Cae, but now... he's hurt because he's stuck waiting for my feelings while I lead him around... I do love him, but still I haven't Evolved or felt any change... I should've broke up with him before this...", they wait until they see Norman come in the waiting room!? They look up as they notice his shadow over him, "Norman?", he leers at Wallace "Champion... It's nice to see you again!". Wallace leers "Yes, I am happy to see you again too♪ Why're you here?", the Gym Leader replied "I was returning from a trip, I was actually in Petalburg when I noticed the city shaking! Do you know what happened?!". Wallace stood "Ah, I shall tell you...", meanwhile.. Leo wakes up "Shit... I fucked up...". He stood "I couldn't convince him... I just fucked up, I probably just proved Cae right by losing... dammit, I can't even look at them now...", he walks out of his room "I could sneak out now... I can't immediately talk to them... I need some fresh air first...". He sneaks outside and stares into the sky... "Dammit... I can't even talk to them... all the shit I said about making Cae fight... I couldn't even stand up to the guy when he fought... I... can't Evolve... nor can I even help one single person...". He walks away... Meanwhile, Nurse Joy bumps into Norman!!! "Excuse me!", he smiles "That's allright, but what's wrong?". She looks at Leo's friends "Um... Your friends gone! I can't find Leo anywhere!", they get up "We only need to look outside, he can't of went far!" Wallace says, Brandi sighed "He must be embarrassed again... he doesn't act prided but... He still gets down BADLY when he loses...". They go outside... Matt freaks "W... what if Brother disentegrated to ashes?! He was burned a long time!", they all stare at him... meanwhile, Leo walks into Wally's house... "There's no one here, and the doors unlocked? Why is this house in perfect condition, but no one's living here?", he sees Wally staring at him!!!? "Hello Mr Flyte...", Leo stares at him "Wh... where did you... come from...", he stepped back... "If this is your house, I'm sorry the door's unlocked...". Wally replies "Leonard... I want to tell you something...", Leo asks "W... wait, how do you kn...". Wally suddenly appears closer to him!!! "I know about your battle...", he looks down "Yeah... I screwed up badly... I...". Wally interrupts "But it's okay... You haven't truly lost... so long as you keep fighting. I know you're embarrassed to see your friends, but... if you run away instead preparing for the next fight... you'll never be a legend...". Leo replied "I know... it just hurts to see their faces now.. I can't look at them", Wally smiles "When you can realize they need your legendary power more than it'll hurt to see the eyes of peope who believe you can do anything... then you'll get up immediately nomatter what...". Leo thought "You're right... I was so caught up in trying to evolve, the fact I was obsessed with something I'm not, took over... I was becoming like Gang leaders by pursuing power... I should concentrate on I am, instead of others... then I'll become the legend they need...". Wally smiles, until Norman walks into the house! "Leonard... right?", he turns around "!!! Sorry, I was just...", his friends walk in "Brother!!!" Matt cheered, Aspen sighs "Why did you run off by yourself!", Brandi adds "We were worried to death!" Jamie sighed "It was selfish of you, Leonard...". Leo sighs "I'm sorry... I... just couldn't stand immediately seeing everyone... I screwed up horribly...", Wallace leered it's okay my dear Leo, legends screw up alot! This is why Earth chooses more than of some to help maintain itself!". Celia looks into Leo's eyes... but turns away... Wallace noticed then says "My dear Leo, I have a surprise for you... please follow me...", they go to PetalBurg gym...

Wallace then says "You were looking for the leader, correct?", Leo replies "Yeah... before I... started trying to get mysrlf killed, hahaha! But... the gym...", Norman finishes "leader's right here!" Leo and his friends looked surprise as Norman turns toward te pilot... I'd hate to spring a challenge right after that fight, but, a battle is a battle! I will do everything in my power as a Gym Leader to win. Leonardm you'd better give it your best shot, too!"! Leo stares "Alright! Watch me!!! I'mma win it!!!", they go inside and prepare to fight...
