PP SYS Ch 33: Bad Ride

"It is! I am glad that you like it here. We are all part of a big family, and we all look out for each other," Nemona said with a smile before looking back at me. "So, what do you think about catching humans? Do you think it is wrong?"

I paused for a moment as I thought about it. It was definitely something that was hard to understand at first, but after talking with Nurse Joy and seeing the reaction from the girls earlier today, I had come to realize something important.

"No," I said finally after thinking things through carefully in my head before continuing on. "I don't think it is wrong. I think that if someone is willing to join me, then why not? It's like any other relationship, but with a little bit of extra work involved."

Nemona smiled at this before nodding her head in agreement. "I agree with you there! I am glad to hear that you are being so open-minded about this," She said before standing up and walking over to me. "Now come on to the bed, you big stiff!" She said with a laugh as she tried to tug me up, and I couldn't help but smile before standing up.

"Alright! You win!" I said with a laugh before following her over to the bed, where we talked for hours about all kinds of things over the hot sweet drink. We talked about our pasts and our dreams for the future, and it was really nice just being able to talk.

Finally, when it got late enough, we both decided that it was time for bed, so Nemona offered me one side of hers while she took the other side. It felt strange at first sharing a bed with someone else like this, but it was actually really nice.

I had done this with Joy, but something felt different with Nemona.

"Good night, Landon," Nemona said as she snuggled into her pillow with a content sigh before closing her eyes.

"Good night, Nemona," I said softly before also closing my eyes and drifting off to sleep.

I woke up to the feeling of my arms wrapped around a warm body, and I slowly opened my eyes and froze as Nemona was facing me. Her eyes were open, and she was smirking at me while I was still trying to process what had happened.

"Good morning, Landon," She said with a giggle before pulling away and standing up. "I think it is time for breakfast!"

I just shook my head in disbelief as we both got dressed and headed downstairs, where Tallia was already waiting for us with a smile on her face. We started talking about our plans for the day while eating breakfast, but then there was a knock at the door that made us all pause.

We all looked at each other before Nemona went to answer it, and when she opened the door, there were two people dressed in black standing outside of it. They were both wearing sunglasses, and they looked like they were some sort of special agents.

This made my blood run cold, but only for a moment.

"Miss Nemona. Arvin requests that you come in early today in a private cab. There had been some trouble down below, but that is all I can say right now," The man said, and Nemona groaned as she looked back at the two of us.

"Looks like you get to drop Landon off on his first day of school!" Nemona laughed, but then she looked at me. "After I am done with work, I will come by your dorm room and get your number! Your cab is here as well!"

Tallia and I rushed out to see two Aircabs, and I groaned.

Nemona's cab was all black, but there was a large Corviknight. It was a large, avian Pokémon resembling a raven, and what should be flying our cab, not a bunch of random bird Pokémon!

"Talk to you all later! We should battle later too, Landon! Special rewards!" Nemona called as she got in the fancy cab, and we got in our not-so-fancy one.

I slid over to the far side, but Tallia slid into the middle spot to sit next to me. I wasn't sure if it was better to sit closer together while flying, but I wasn't complaining. Today was much windier than yesterday, and it looked like it was about to start raining. Nemona had given me a coat just in case, but the one that Tallia wore was cotton.

"Why didn't you bring a raincoat?" I asked, and Tallia shrugged as we lifted off but was immediately thrown into my side as the wind caught us.

"I didn't see the weather!" Tallia said as she leaned into me so I quickly took my coat off, and then wrapped one arm around her, and covered us both best that I could. It was ridiculous that this thing didn't have any windows!

"You best hang on tight. This is probably going to be one of the bad flights!" Larry called from the front seat.

"What do you mean bad flight?! The last was a bad flight!" I called up, but Tallia shook her head no as she put her head under my coat completely.

"Just close your eyes, and hope that we make it!" Tallia cried from where her face was pressed into my chest, but I stared out into the storm that was only getting worse.

At one point, a bolt of lightning struck right in front of us, and I could feel the electricity running through my body. Tallia screamed and held onto me tighter than ever before as we flew through the storm.

Finally, we made it to Uva Academy safely, but when I looked out at it from above, all I could think about was how big this place really was compared to my home. It almost felt like a dream because it seemed so far away from everything else that had been going on lately!

"We made it!" Larry called from the front seat, and I sighed in relief before helping Tallia out of the cab.

We said goodbye to Larry as we walked away, and then Tallia turned to me.

"This is where we part ways, but I will come to see you after I am done with my work! Umm, and thank you for holding me in the Aircab!" Tallia said, and then suddenly ran away.
