----------------------------------------

Chris and Gloria had decided to go to a movie together to pass the time until the party. The only movies that Chris had ever seen had been on the cruise ships in port, and on the one he rode to Kanto. Gloria took him to one of her personal favorites, a fantasy film based in a feudal time period. Chris felt that it was a lot like the wars between the people of his islands, but on land instead of oversea. They both enjoyed it, though. The main character used a very large sword that required two hands to use. He was attempting to avenge the slaughter of his village by an enemy town. He and his Pokemon fought valiantly, yet in the end he fell short. Until an assassin, using the distraction the hero created, killed the lord of the enemy town from behind just before he had the hero killed. The soldiers then turned on the assassin, who had her Pokemon subdue them, and she came to the hero's aid. At the end, the two of them rode back to her town and received a hero's welcome for killing the evil lord.
"Does that remind you of anything?" Gloria asked as they left the theater.
"Well, other than that I've already met you, and you probably wouldn't have killed the man."
"Hey, if I had to I probably could."
"I know you could, but hopefully neither of us will. I almost did."
"For a good cause, Chris. I only hope I would have had the courage to attempt the same in your place." Gloria turned to him and pulled him in for a kiss. They then headed over to the party, which was ready to start.
There was an uproar as they arrived in the park. They were quickly surrounded, then lifted up on top of the crowd, who then carried them off towards the stage. Neither felt very comfortable up there, but they rode it out and enjoyed it. When they were set on the stage, they let out their Pokemon to join them. The crowd wanted some sort of speech, but neither of them felt much like doing that. Chris had an idea.
"I know you want a speech, but we aren't really speakers. Instead, I will express myself another way." He pulled out his Poke-flute, and began to play. As he played, he started to dance, flowing with the music. He started in slow, then picked up the tempo as he went. Gloria also joined in, singing a wordless song that meshed with his tune. The Pokemon also joined in on the action. Cubone used his club as a drumstick, drumming on the floor with the rhythm of the music, with his own flourish. Skarmory, Dratini, Ghastly, and Tamanta put on an aerial show together, weaving in and out above stage and crowd. Pikachu and Flaffy made a small light show, sending out small shocks of energy with emphases in the music. Togepi and Clefairy danced together, as did Tyrogue and Beldum, weaving around the stage.
At one point, Gloria dropped her tune for a moment and danced, and Chris stepped up to follow. He glanced at Cubone, who nodded, and then let him keep up the rhythm as Chris joined Gloria for their dance. They wove an elaborate pattern, flipping over one another multiple times. Then Skarmory and Dratini swooped down, and the trainers jumped onto their backs. Chris surfed steadily on Dratini as Gloria flew standing on Skarmory's back. They swooped around, then came together in the middle. Tamanta and Ghastly were under them, and they shot up their attacks to catch their trainers. Riding water gun and night shade, they slowly fell back down, and then jumped and flipped onto the stage, where Cubone still tapped his rhythm. Chris then pulled his flute back out and returned to playing, and Gloria jumped back into her vocals, with the whole song winding back down, until it ended with a few last hanging notes from the flute.
The crowd burst into cheers as they and their Pokemon took their bows. Sabrina then teleported onto the stage. "We've all really enjoyed your performance, you two. Thank you for that, and for everything you've done for us." The crowd cheered again. "Now, I suspect that we're getting hungry, so let's eat!"
The crowd dispersed to the buffet lines that had been set up, and began to get their food. Sabrina led Chris and Gloria to a table where the Chairman, King, and Jen were already sitting, with places set, already having food there, for three more. There was also an area set up next to it, roped off to keep the guests from stepping into it, where the Pokemon went for their food. There was fish for all of them, plus some other Pokemon food.
"Well, Sabrina, that's probably the most enthusiastic I've yet seen you," the chairman said as they sat down.
"That song really got me going. It had power, to be sure."
"A Poke-flute will do that, if you know the right tunes. My people have used them for centuries, for various purposes, though I got this one from Mr. Fuji. Wonder where he is? I sent him an invite via Ghastly earlier."
"I saw him a few minutes ago, Chris. He's an old friend of mine, and I was glad to see him." The chairman started looking around. "Ah, there he is." He pointed to one of the food lines.
"I'm glad he made it."
"So, did you two practice that or something?" Jen asked.
Chris and Gloria stared at each other. "No, I just realized that something needed to be done, and I didn't have anything to say."
"I applied a tune that I learned as a girl once he got going. I was surprised when it meshed so well with his."
"And our Pokemon just sort of joined in. I was surprised by Cubone's drumming, and the whole aerial part while we were dancing."
"That was fun. I didn't worry at all about falling off. And riding down on the other two's attacks was really interesting."
They all then started eating, and eventually others started to come over to chat. First were the two doctors, though it took a moment to recognize them in normal clothing.
"Oh, you're kids are so cute!" Gloria was holding a two year old boy, and Chris was playing with his five year old sister. Their older brother, who was almost eight, scowled at being called cute.
"Well thank you. Normally we don't both work at the same time, but this was important enough that we did, so we haven't spent as much time with these guys the past few days."
"But you're done now, mommy. And you did a good job." The little girl poked Chris's scar with her finger, making him wince slightly.
"Your daddy did Chris's, dear. I helped out Gloria here."
"Oh, well you still did well."
"Hey, can we play with your Pokemon?" the older boy asked. Chris and Gloria looked over at their Pokemon, who were done eating and were playing on their own anyways, and nodded at the kids.
"Be nice to them," they warned.
At this point, Kelly and her family came over. The kids immediately joined the other three with the Pokemon.
"So these are the mighty heroes. Good to meet you two."
"Chris, Gloria, this is my husband, Charles." They both shook his hand. He then went over to watch the kids and make sure that no one got hurt.
Other people came over throughout the night, to say hi or introduce themselves. Chris was surprised when Misty came over.
"Hey you two! That was really cool of you. I especially liked how you two were fighting, too, not just your Pokemon."
"Eh, with people like the Rockets, there's not much else you can do." Chris stretched a little, having been sitting too long.
"It's not like they'll just give up because you defeat their Pokemon." Gloria actually got up to stretch, and then started walking around. Chris followed her, as did Misty.
"Hey, you two are welcome in my gym anytime. I'd love to have you over for a swim or something."
"We'll do that." Misty laughed at their unison, and they couldn't help but join her.
"What's so funny?" Mr. Fuji walked up to them.
"Nothing," they said in unison, then laughed harder. He laughed, too.
"Hey, nice use of that flute, Chris, you've really got some talent with that. And Gloria, your voice was lovely. I was very impressed."
"Thank you, sir." Gloria was blushing again.
"Thanks again for giving me the flute. I've really enjoyed having it."
The night moved on, and so did the people. Eventually, they'd all left except for Chris, Gloria, and Sabrina.
"Well, I'll see you two later, I guess. I expect to hear news of League challenges soon."
"Later, Sabrina!" They both waved, and she waved back before teleporting home.
"Well, let's head over to the Pokemon Center to rest for the night."
"Good idea, Glo."
"Actually, you two, I have news for you." Rick approached the pair. "That was a nice get together, by the way. Cianwood trout and those wonderful tropical fruits, and both for free from what I'd heard."
"My family owns an orchard of them."
"Skarmory brought back a ton of those fish."
"Ok, ok you two. Anyways, I need you two to head to the Sevii Islands immediately. Specifically to Six Island, then head north-west of it to Outcast Island. One of the ships is waiting in Vermilion to take you there as soon as possible. You'll need to wear your uniforms, though. Change on the ship, but get your passes out now."
"What's up, Rick?"
"Kyogre."
Ch. 15: Party! Hehe, well, these two now have two alternate professions they can go into if they don't want to be trainers anymore.
