Snippet #2135910

Kairi lay drifting on the other side of the lake with her arms folded behind her head. Eyes closed, she let herself drift as she bathed in the warmth of the gentle rays that beamed down from the sun. Half her body submerged and her pokemon splashed around her frivolously. Her mind was a dove. Free of all responsibility, soaring high into the sky abandoning all thoughts of obligation then disappearing into the broad horizon.

"It's time." peaceful images shattered like glass. Her peace broken. The sun above her became coveted by grey clouds. Her eyes popped open. Sakka, her Phione was drifting right before her face.

"I don't want this," she thought back. "I didn't choose this." Blue ducked her entire head underwater holding her breathe attempting to swim away. All of her poke'mon sighed and swam after, except for her Psyduck who was a bit confused on why everyone was swimming away.

"Destiny chose you." Sakka returned, following close by.

"Screw destiny!" She wanted to scream.

Manaphy appeared before her cutting off her path. "We chose you." It swam to Sakka's side among the rest of her pokemon. "We all did."

Kairi folded her arms and looked away defiantly. She loved her pokemon. She had to admit that if this destiny didn't choose, then they may not have become apart of her life. That was a reality that created the heavy feeling of a lump in her chest. She gave in, "whatever".

Her pokemon danced around her, cheering. She put them all in their pokeballs, even Psyasugi who was just catching up. All put away except her guardians and Mantyke who she commanded to use surf. Moments later she was above water riding her mantyke like a surfboard across the lake on a wave of water which rushed to the other end where she spilled over, crashing onto the shore in a cascade of splashes.
