Chapter 11: Spa•

"That was fast..." Selena stared down at her three water, fire, and grass z crystals. She completed her three trials around the island all in a week just to get it over with

It's been the 2 weeks since the day she almost used her aura bomb. She was hallucinating so much due to being too focused on the past that it seemed so similar to what that guy was saying. That guy was part of a evil organization and liked by the boss. She might have been overthinking, but what really got to her was the darkness of his eyes, the grey shade that reminded her of the shadow triad that had white, grey, and black in their iris that made them children of the legendary beast of johto

She couldn't believe she snapped so suddenly. If it wasn't for Gladion, her powers could had hurt the ones around her... even if there was no one around who was to blame for her nightmare. Gladion... he had the ability to disable a Pokémon or Leles power... he was powerful himself. He could change his entire eyeball color into a terrifying sight.

She looked at her hands, still wondering even after so many days it passed "does that mean he disabled my aura bomb?" There was no telling for sure if he did anything to her. He tackled her down to stop herself from going crazy. Using the aura bomb, like last time at N's castle, it disabled her from moving her entire body for a week. It's been that long since being able to move again and start the trials again. Hau stayed by her side until she healed, but she insisted that he go on and let her worry about fixing her mistake. She can't go overthinking again. It's like Gladion said... her own power can kill her. If almost using it can keep her from moving, it could get worse. She did die that one time when having to save the world when the legendary beast's powers were causing natural disasters when they were... hurt. She used her good aura with the help of her legendary parents and sacrificed her own life along with theirs to save the world. If it wasn't for Red's mewtwo sacrificing its life to help Mew and recover them, they wouldn't be here today. She has to calm down...

"I think we can finally just relax and go to the spa... how does that sound?" She asked her Eevee and Zorua. They cheered and followed her to where she first got her waterium z from Lana, a trail captain, at the resort where her trial took place. The resort was known for its hot springs and swimming pools. Lana served as a lifeguard but also a captain. She was a water type captain and gets the island challengers to do her work for her. Every trial was ridiculously easy. She wish she didn't have the gift of bonding for a bit to have a fair fight, but battling without a reason wasn't in her interest

For completing Lana's trial, sort of, she and her Pokémon got a free spa day in the salon. Enjoying herself in such a place made her think to make one of her own at the Poké Pelego, but maybe just a hot bath...

Brionne, Zorua and Eevee as a vaporeon swam around the hot bath, having the time of their life, while Selena rested herself against a rock, naked under a towel. She sighed and closed her eyes

"Master?" Zorua called

"Hm?"

"What are we going to do now?"

"That's... a good question, I'm not sure really. Maybe I should fight that Olivia woman? She's a Kahuna after all. I wonder if she found out about my powers leaking out from Hau" she shrugged and looked at her bracelet he fixed for her "why does it have to be like this? Why was I chosen to be this powerful being? Was it really because of Melody..?"

"Vapa?" Eevee questioned

"Melody's origin is a mystery to even me... but I know Toby has to do with it"

"What do you mean? Melody died over 1000 years ago, right?" Zorua questioned

"Yes, but you have forgotten that he has the power to time travel. He can even age others from young to old" to be the child of the legendary Pokémon Dialga and take on such responsibilities. It's sad to find out just how much he went through with Melody. Even if she was a kid when she died and he was the cause of it. Selena rested her chin on her arm and hummed a song. Pichu came over from washing its own fur from over at the showers and played its ukulele at the edge of the hot bath

"Is that singing I'm hearing?" Zorua giggled "you've been singing a lot lately, have you taken lessons?" Selena rolled her eyes "hey... you always comment on when I tease you. Is something wrong?"

"Not really, I just wish I knew more about my new power without taking a chance for it to lure men into their doom" she sweat dropped, referring to herself as a siren, or in Yvonne's case a mermaid. Stomping could be heard from inside the resort. She stood from her bath, holding up her towel and watched a girl running in here with a large Pokémon. It freaked when it saw the water and backed away. The girl who barged in calmed it down and looked around before spotting Selena

"You there! I'm in need of assistance!" Selena sweat dropped

"Now is not a good time"

"These scoundrels of Pokémon thieves are following me. Life in the city sure is something else"

"So... people where you come from thinks it's okay to just barge into a hot bath and ask for help. Doesn't sound crazy at all" two Team Skull grunts walked into the baths. She glared with a blush and tightened the towel around her body more

"There are the thieves" the girl held her hips. Seriously!? This is the worse place to be handling this!

"Yo, we're not thieves. It's a legitimate business!" Oh right, it's those two idiots that she threw into the ocean back in Melemele

"I'm actually really tired of you both" Selena glared. One of the grunts groaned with a gag and fell on his knees in pain, pressing on his stomach

"Y-yo! It's you again! Why you always around when we handlin' business, yo!" She glared at him, making him cup his mouth and gag. The girl stared at Selena surprised as she walked out the bath with her soaked towel. Blood leaked from both the grunts noses

"Didn't you see where the hell you were chasing!? This is a girls bath!" She blushed embarrassed "the ancient women would had blinded men for peaking at a woman bathing! If you know what's good for you, leave before I throw you across Akala just like I did in Melemele!" The grunts jolted out in a flash. She huffed and looked down at the girl, who flinched at her serious stare "and you! Who runs into a resort with a big Pokémon like that!? You could had broke something! Are you going to be as bad as those guys for causing trouble!?" The girl bowed a dozen times. Selena finally calmed down and hopped back into the bath

"Be careful next time, will you? I had a long few weeks and the last thing I need is trouble" the girl nodded, looking guilty. Selena looked over and smiled "but I won't blame you. You were trying to get away from those grunts. I'm sorry for yelling at you like we were familiar with each other. What's your name?" The girl smiled

"I'm Hapu"

"I'm Selena"

"What a fine name. I like the way you handle yourself. Judging from the color of your eyes, you're a Lele. How exciting! I must apologize for interrupting your day"

"It's fine" she looked up at the big Pokémon behind Hapu "that Pokémon?"

"This is Mudsdale! We're always wondering all about Alola to try to achieve our goals, so perhaps we'll meet again someday. I am indebted to you for your aid, after all" she bowed "Sorry again for barging in! Alola!" She walked out like she never barged in to begin with. What a strange girl...

No matter, after awhile of being in the hot bath, Selena began to feel dizzy and walked out to the lobby fully clothed and using a fresh towel to dry her face. What a great bath! If only it wasn't interrupted not too long ago!

Zorua licked her paws and looked over at a few old ladies looking at a tv. She became curious herself and walked over without Selena's permission "what did I say about walking off?" Selena said without looking. Zorua froze and nervously laughed

"Sorry master" Selena walked up to the tv where a bunch of ladies were gushing over a familiar shirtless man in a wrestling mask. That was the same guy she saw on the tv back in the airplane

"Isn't that the professor?" Zorua pointed as a human girl, making people stare in confusion. Selena nodded and sat down to watch the match herself. He was in the Battle Royal on a stage with a Lycanroc by his side, following by Hau with his Dartrix, and Gladion with his Type: Null. They all faced each other in four, with a complete stranger with them. This took Selena by surprised

The different camera angles pointed at each challenger. It's funny how the guys she knew all had a different facial expressions. Kukui was confident, Hau was excited, and Gladion was annoyed. What's the deal with that guy anyways? He deserves such a title of being the most powerful Lele in Alola if he's going to keep a intimidating facial expression like that

"If I decided not to come to the salon, we could had been there with them, huh?" Selena giggled "oh well" she leaned back on her chair and watched the entire match before falling asleep in the lobby. It wasn't long before she was forced awake by a employee that visiting hours were over and she had to leave. She left without word with the resort's towel in hand with the logo

"Did you steal that?" Zorua giggled

"So what of it?" She had a habit for stealing without anyone noticing. It was a big thing of hers when she was living out in the wild before finding her mansion, which she filled with items she got her Zoroark to steal by using his illusions

"Nothing!" Zorua cheered, leading everyone to nowhere. Froslass came out of nowhere and followed everyone through the dark. It was too dark for Selena's safety, so Froslass always knew to come out and protect Selena, who would always be with Ninetales when they have their last night walks

She tried not too think too much about Ninetales. She walked the long path before realizing she had no idea where she was going. She just got out of the spa after a bath and walking around in the cold. She sniffled and hugged her arms

"Bad idea to just walk out like this. Have anything, Froslass?" Froslass disappeared and reappeared with some clothes with the tag still on "let me guess..." Froslass giggled "I said not to steal without my permission, but I don't care right now" she hid behind a tree to change into some denim shorts with flower printed tights underneath and a long sleeved hoodie with what looked like the printing of the Glacidea flower

"How comfy!" She giggled "I love getting new clothes. They always feel better before you wash them"

"I totally agree!" Zorua cheered. She's only saying that... she's been wearing the same dress since starting her human transformation

"I think there will be a hotel somewhere out here" Froslass pulled on her sleeve, looking worried. Selena flinched when feeling someone approaching. It was none other then Gladion with his Type: Null. Even when seeing him approach, she can feel another aura of a person a bit far off

"Didn't expect to see you here" Gladion said, crossing his arms. Selena sighed to relax and put on a smile

"I can say for you... congrats on almost winning the battle royal" she teased, giggling. He rolled his eyes and looked back at her and her Pokémon, and human Zorua. He narrowed his eyes and flicked his finger like he had something was on the edge, and turned Zorua back to a Pokémon

"Don't tease me" Selena stared at Zorua looking at her paws

"Your ability is quite impressive" she crossed her arms "it'll get in the way of my pranks. You're seriously no fun"

"That stunt you did back in the graveyard was suppose to be a prank?" She smirked with pride

"But of course! Back where I come from, I was known as the ghost girl who would have visitors come to my mansion to battle me. They would end up loosing and get the spooked by me and my Pokémon. It was quite the performance" he snorted, amused

"I admit, it was pretty good. But I won't be easily fooled. Because of you, I have to give up 'the strongest Lele' title to you, but that doesn't mean I'm any less powerful" she shrugged

"I never said you were. I never asked for that title"

"No, you were fated to be. You know who your legendary parents are and that's big" how did he know that? "The fact that you're this old and you still can't control your powers is incredible. And you're still developing?" She blushed

"Cut it out, mind if you stop flirting?" He flinched and turned red before glaring

"Idiot! I'm only complimenting you! Don't get cocky!" She put her hand together surprised and happily

"Oh dear! Could this be true? Could there really be a guy out there who isn't effected by my love charm?" He flinched even more and backed away

"Seriously? You have a love charm?" He calmed down "genuinely, I'm not effected by anyone or anything that has a power. I can see where you're coming from" he stared into her eyes "they're lovely"

"I thought you weren't flirting" she smirked. He glared annoyed, making her laugh "I'm kidding! I'm kidding!" She slowly started walking so he can follow "say, are you done developing?"

"Huh? Yeah... I've been done with it for a few years now"

"That's nice. What powers do you have?" He thought for a moment

"I can see in the dark... I can benefit Pokémon to boosting up their elemental powers"

"Like you did with your Type: Null?" He send out his Pokémon. She took a closer inspection and gave it a friendly smile "hi!" It tilted its head confused and walked behind Gladion to hide

"It doesn't like strangers all that much" he pet its head

"That sucks. One of my gifts are for bonding with anything or anyone who look into my eyes. All except man made Pokémon" he raised his brows "what else do you have?"

"Disable powers of others, and..." he raised his hand and put some force into it to make him shake and make a ball of darkness appear at the same time his eyes turned black and green "this" ink dripped from the bottom of the dark ball, shocking her from how it resembled...

"What is that?" She cupped her mouth. He threw the ball towards a tall tree and made a black hole with massive wind and sucked the entire trunk inside of it. That power was almost like Melissa's powers, but she can store people in a pit of darkness and keep them in a internal sleep with terrible nightmares. Gladion's powers were different and much more terrifying

"I can create a worm hole into another alternate universe even I'm not sure what it could be" he... is the third one!

"I see... that you got yourself a easy passage way to the Distortion world" She looked at Froslass coming back with the Griseous orb she had stored away in her jewelry box

"Pardon?"

"Do you know who created you?"

"What Lele knows that? You're the only one I believe who knows" she nodded and showed him the orb

"I think I know who is your creator. It's a powerful Pokémon" he stared at her before the both of them turned when feeling someone approaching. Froslass stood in front of her in caution. The silhouette walked over slowly while playing with his arm

"A powerful Pokémon indeed" a robotic voice spoke. The street light made the figure visible to Selena finally, and when she saw who the voice belong to, she made a death glare "Alola, miss Selena. I'm surprised to see you out here. What a coincidence!"

"You!" She tried attacking, but remembered Gladion was next to her and has the ability to disable anything "how dare you show your face here? How did you leave the Distortion world with Ghetsis!? Colgress..." the tall blonde man closed his eyes

"Yeah!" Zorua glared "if it wasn't for you and that monster, my master wouldn't even have lost the ones she's loved!" Selena frowned at her tears. Zorua... "Don't get near my master! I'm warning you"

"Little one, I have no intention of going back to my old ways" Selena questioned his voice his machine on his arm was making for him "well, if you let me explain what happened in the Distortion world. Promise you won't try to kill me again?"

"Again?" Gladion questioned. Selena cracked her knuckled single handedly

"Your escape is the reason why I lost my precious Pokémon and my friends... you better make it quick" Colgress nodded

"Very well"

Well that left off in a cliff hanger! I actually was waiting to explain what happened in the Distortion world and how Ghetisis and Colgress was able to escape after so many years. If you made it this far than I haven't bored you! Probably. It means a lot that you're reading my works and I look forward to write the next chapter! Bye now!
