Chapter 99 - Farm Life(part 2)

The interesting thing was that the gift from his parents hatched. It extended his stay a bit longer. The pokemon was the aura pokemon riolu. It was a bipedal fox faced pokemon blue and black in colour. It was a male.

Since it was a fighting pokemon so Alex had started to use his aura to nurture it. It was a way discovered by Alex when he saw mew.

Even Pokemons in their egg can be nurtured. Mew used her psychic to nurture the Ralts egg, so he used his aura to nurture it.

This way it knew him without even hatching and an aura bond was created between them. According to the aura guide, with this bond Alex can freely communicate with his riolu wherever he was at the expense of his aura.

After evolving it has become bonded with Alex and has always followed him. He never left him and disliked staying in the pokeball. So now Alex has five pokemons who now became one of the companion in his journey- Espeon and riolu by his side, Haunter in his shadow, Pichu on his shoulder a d Swablu on his head.

He has let riolu only train in aura for the first few days because he was very young and similar to Ralts he often emit aura.

Sometimes he even sent out aura sphere too. It shocked Alex but later thought may be his aura made him learn it.

Riolu of Lucario kingdom are the only ones out there who know aura sphere before evolving into Lucario. So he had him learn to control his aura so that he doesn't accidentally use aura Sphere.

He also know some egg moves like blaze kick and sky uppercut. It seemed one of his parent was a Hitmonlee or a Blaziken. Most probably a Blaziken.

So he has him also learn fire punch after he can train . Electabuzz has taken upon himself to train with riolu as well as hand to hand combat after he learned from Alex that Lucario was one of the strongest fighting type out there.

Also when he asked for a Pokemon to guard the farm for sometime about an year time he happily agreed and sent him not one but two pokemons, a majestic and beautiful Ninetails and his Arcanine.

According to him his Arcanine was bored and wanted to travel around so for change of scenary he sent them.

With Ninetails psychic powers can scout the area while Arcanine firepower to subdue or eradicate them.

Alex felt that if they raise the pokemons like Horsea and poliwag well he might gift them the two a Growlithe and Vulpix but this is for the future.

Currently he was tired out yesterday so he decided to rest today. Alex has trained in the aura vision yesterday and in his joy of success he overused his aura which strained his eyes and tired him a lot.

And this was seen by his parents who forced him to take a rest today.

And today his parents would stay at the house in the farm and look after his pokemons today. He then looked at the egg he got from the poachers which was placed over a wide variety of minerals. The egg absorbed the properties as well as ground power in the Earth gem which may even strengthen the defense of the pokemons later.

Alex really looked forward to what it might be. He has spent about five million pokedollars on the minerals for this egg. And currently with the frequent shaking and shining a few times it might hatch tomorrow or day after tomorrow.

But he decided to put it behind and just take a nap till it was time for dinner. And he just dozed off.

But he was soon shaken wake by his siblings who should him and said," Brother wake up mom is call into you."

" Wake up. Now is not the time to sleep "

After some shaking he sat down from his sleep and asked," what happened? Is it lunch the already ?"

" No there is still time for lunch." Ben said

" Mom was calling you, she said you have a call." Clara said

" how did you know?" He asked

" Espeon told Slowking who told us that"

This made him curious so he immediately called Arcanine nearby. " Arcanine can you take me back. Mom called and it must be important if she asked Espeon to call him back."

He just picked him and agreed. He sat down for Alex to ride him. After riding him, he motioned and soon they dashed off.

Travelling on Arcanine felt great and he himself wanted to get one later. Let's see if he has any luck in the future.

In just a few minutes they reached the house which was about a kilometers away. This too without any discomfort. He was really envious of Professor oak for having such a great Arcanine.

He dropped off him thanked Arcanine and entered inside. Inside was Espeon who immediately guided him to the phone where his mother was talking to someone.

When he saw whose image was from the screen he saw that it was Agatha. The only people who knew the number of his house were Professor oak , Agatha and his parents. No one not even his friends knew it.

Seeing him, Agatha greeted," Hello Alex how are you?"

" I am fine Agatha. Is there anything important that you called now?"

His mom left them so they can talk privately.

" Can't I just call to talk with you?"

" No no. It is just that you called and my mom asked he to hurry immediately without saying anything made me think it might be too important."

" It is really important though. If not for the Cerulean gym leader busy with something else he might have done it but I remembered you were around so you can help us. So are you free now?"

" Ah yes I am free. What is it that need my help?"

" Do you know the Silph corporation?"

" Yeah. It is the currently one if the largest corporation in Kanto who are heavily invested in TM, aren't they?"

" Yes you are right. ".

" Did something happened with them?"

"Nothing happened to Silph itself. The chairman and founder of Silph is Mr. James Montenegro. He has only one son who is Bill Montenegro.

His son is an avid adventurer and also a bit of a researcher or scientist whatever you call him. His whereabouts are currently unknown.

Normally he is heavily protected but his disappearance can cause chaos in Kanto so Mr. Montenegro asked the league to secretly search him and not reveal it.

If found he is missing many people especially the underworld would Target him and may blackmail James.

Since Waterflower is busy with something important so can you find him?"

" Where did he went missing?"

" He went missing near the foggy forest twenty kilometers northwest for floral town. You can easily find it as it is all year round covered in fog.

The pokemons there also Excel in sneak attacks. "

" What makes you think he is fine?"

" For security he has the three elemental evolved form of Eevee who are at least advanced level so he might have chance of survival.

Also he is the sole heir to Silph. So he is very important at least until his dead body is found he is considered missing.

So do you accept this confidential mission?"

Alex was in deep thoughts of whether he should take this mission or not.

" Don't worry you will be well rewarded." She added jokingly.

" Ok I will do it."

" All the other information will be sent to your Pokedex. Also Alex this is a mission of grave importance especially for you."

He nodded and then turned off the call.

Alex has now got a confidential task of finding a sole heir. How will this task go? Stay tuned
