The ebony hedgehog was currently half asleep, not really aware of what today it was. He had some faint idea but not much, hence why he was attempting to sleep until he saw Goop coming into where Kin was sleeping.
‘…?’
The Pokemon chirped and gently picked Kin up out of bed to carry the Mobian downstairs. He created a telepathic link with Rebecca for just a moment for her to tell Kin one simple thing.
“Wake up, sleepyhead! It’s Christmas!”
“Yep, Indigo?”
“Sweetie, what is in your mouth?”
“Goop, tell Kin to come down for presents.”
The goopy Pokemon let out a soft chirp and floated up the stairs to wake up Kin. Rebecca carefully made sure the presents hadn’t tipped over or torn.
“This is going to be so great!”
A certain someone was lugging a bunch of large, wrapped presents into the living room and quietly putting them under the tree, making sure nothing ripped or tore and checked the tags one last time before feeling confident enough to leave them as they were.
“Perfect. They’re gonna be so excited!”
C-Can we go higher—-
Oh?
–The small boy blinked, tilting his head as he clung on Rebecca’s waist and brushed his bangs out of his eyes then smiled sheepishly. Questions was something Wally was never good at… He’ll try his best however as he pondered with his eyebrows furrowed and had a such serious expression on his pale face.–
Um… Why did you… Became a pokemon trainer?
“Of course we can. You heard ‘im, Marshmallow.”
“Originally it was to go on an adventure with my Pokemon and work together. Then the Plasma incident happened and boy was that fun.”
There was a little sarcasm at the end there as she gave the Altaria a gentle pat as he gained altitude. Now they could see the whole Hoenn region.
“The region’s gorgeous today.”
“Kin what are you doing in only a-”
-faint wheezing-
Kin was promptly swept up into a warm hug.
A-Ah!
–The boy gasped, feeling the wind on his face as the smile was still there and let out a joyous laugh that was so rare. So full of pure happiness as he held his arms wide and spread to as if he was pretending that he was flying too and he looked like the weight of the world was lifted off of his small shoulders. He didn’t hear Rebecca’s comment about getting sick as he enjoyed the ride.
Wally never felt so free and so… Content. Indeed, this was a new chapter that was now turned away from being isolated in the bed and being so lonely. He was with someone who knew the true meaning of freedom which meant a lot.–
Once her stomach settled, Rebecca let out a soft, excited laugh. She had always been asleep on her flights due to her airsickness so she never got to feel the wind in her short hair.
“It feels great up here!”
“Hey, Cuz? Since we’ll be up here for a while, y’can ask me whatever y’like.”
H-Hello M-Marshmallow! It’s w-wonderful to see y-you again….
–The green haired boy laughed a bit at the affectionate bird pokemon, a hand raising to lay on the soft surface of the feathers as the smile got wider though it hurts his cheeks. The ralts just peered at Marshmallow rather warily and nervous then tilted his head as Wally sat with Rebecca then petted on the ralts’s head to comfort then took Ralts back in the ultraball.–
I-It’s okay, f-friend. You’ll feel better back in your pokeball…
Rebecca looked a little ill as Marshmallow started flying up towards the sky to get some altitude.
“Boy it’s a good thing I finally found airsickness meds before I left, otherwise Marshmallow would have to have me sleep so I don’t yack on ‘im.”
The Altaria sung gratefully, flapping his wings as he flew.
“Indigo is playing outside with Zeke, I believe.”
“They swore they wouldn’t fly off the cliff so they’re fine.”
