Another Attack?!
Faith hung up and put her phone away. "He says he's coming. Give him about half an hour or so." Faith blushed when she thought about Hop. She had had a crush on him ever since he came to challenge the Stow-On-Side Gym.
"Not sure if Hop can really help us... but you probably know what you're doing," Scarab said, sounding a little uncertain if this would work or not.
"He'll be able to help. I know him. He might get a little... distracted at times, but he doesn't mean anything by it. He's just... confident, happy, and energetic, and that's what I like about him." She tried to make it sound like she was just saying good things about Hop, not anything that totally gave away that she liked him. But her blush took care of that.
"Do you like him?" Scarab said teasingly.
Faith blushed even more. "Wha- No! Yes! As a friend!" She punched Scarab's arm lightly. "You meanie."
Scarab laughed hard at that word. "What are you, like, three?" Faith rolled her eyes. "I'm sixteen."
They were interrupted by Hop's arrival. "Hey, Hop!" Faith shouted, waving to him and smiling.
"Hey there, Faith!" He said with a smile. "How's it been? How are Bea and Allister?" But when he saw Faith's worried expression at the mention of Bea's name, his face fell. "Is something wrong? Did something happen?"
"An organization known as TRR, or "Team Rainbow Rocket" attacked Stow-On-Side earlier today. Bea tried to stop them, but..."
"Oh no... what happened to her?!"
"She tried to block a move with her injured arm. It shattered the bone again." Faith shuddered at the memory.
"Oh no... she's hurt?! What else did they do?"
"Well, they stole Scarab's Durant and... I don't know what else."
"Let's get going," Scarab said impatiently.
"Right. Let's go."
Imma not give ALL the details for the sake of time. A brief explanation: The trio overheard a group of TRR grunts talking about how they were going to use the Dynamax Energy to make a mind control device to use on Legendaries. Let's skip to when they found out how to stop them.
"She found something," Scarab said as his Vikavolt fidgeted with a power switch.
"Scarab, are you sure-" Faith began. He looked at her with a look that said "yes." Faith shut herself up.
Scarab pulled the switch down and immediately all the power went out.
"Well, that worked. But I can't see," Scarab said.
"Buttercup! Flame Charge!" The area was suddenly lit up by a small flame, revealing a Shiny Scorbunny. Faith smiled.
Again, not gonna explain every detail. Just that the group was then found by some of the evil leaders and they battled. Faith, Hop, and Scarab won.
They then headed outside. They set up camp just outside of Hammerlocke.
Faith thought about her siblings. She hoped they were both okay. And that Bea wasn't exerting herself to death. Faith smiled and fell asleep.
In the morning, Faith decided to go check on Bea and Allister whole Hop and Scarab would warn Chairman Rose about how TRR was planning on getting rid of him. Faith headed to Stow-On-Side, Hop and Scarab to Rose Tower in Wyndon.
Faith walked through the quiet town. As she approached her house, she heard her brother and sister arguing. Faith frowned- they never argued unless Allister was trying to get Bea to take it easy. Faith hurried up to the front door.
"Hey, guys. I'm back.
Bea jumped up and hugged Faith, Allister closely behind.
"What's wrong?"
"Tell Bea that she needs to rest."
"Tell Allister I can handle it."
Faith shook her head. "No. Bea, you know I love you, and that's why I'm asking you to listen to Allister."
Bea sighed. "Ugh, fine..."
They called Scarab and Hop, once again, I won't explain everything. Hop and Scarab arrived at Rose Tower.
Meanwhile, Faith was talking to Bea, explaining why there was a power outage the night before, when there was a sudden knock on the door. Faith jumped up. "I'll get it."
Then, "What the hell do you think you're doing here?!"
Bea got up and ran to the door, where she found Faith talking to a TRR Grunt. Faith looked angry. The Grunt was threatening her.
Then Bea looked out the window and gasped. The city was overrun by TRR Grunts...
