The MZ Team is sitting around the table. Most of them are enjoying some Croissant Curry (Naveen made himself a sandwich) as Paxton tells them about today's catch.
"After me and Taunie beat the Rouge Mega Lucario, I saw a Shiny Alpha Pumpkaboo watching me," he says.
The rooms looks at him surprised. "Just watching you," Naveen asks. "No aggression?"
Paxton shakes his head. "No. It actually looked at me like it wanted something. I tried approaching it, but it got scared and ran off."
"That's pretty strange for an Alpha Pokémon," Taunie states, Paxton nodding in agreement.
"That's what I thought," he says. "That's why I left. I chased it all throughout the town, trying to figure out what was wrong. We got into some trouble, but we got through it."
Taunie smiles. That's one of the many great things about Paxton. When he sees something that seems like it needs help, he will do anything to help it.
"We even battled the Alpha Rouge Mega Salamence together," he continues after taking a bite of his food.
"Was there any time that you had to protect it," Lida asks, an eyebrow raised.
"Only once," Paxton replies. "But it was no big deal."
Taunie doesn't say anything, taking a big bite of the delicious croissant curry. She knows that's a lie. Well, maybe not a lie. She knows he believes it was no big deal. Taunie's pretty sure Paxton would jump off a roof to save someone and say "it was no big deal." She saw what happened, though.
The MZ Team got a call from Vinnie saying that there was a large amount of Mega Energy in Wild Zone 18 and that it was interfering with the barrier, meaning it would be a problem because the Rouge Mega could leave. They tried to call Paxton, but it went straight to voice mail, so Taunie said she would go without him. She used to do it solo and sure she still could.
As she arrived at Wild Zone 18, she saw what Vinnie was talking about, the green wall flickering on and off. She enters and is shocked to see that someone was already challenging it. Fear quickly consumed her. What if someone low leveled entered the place, unaware of the Mega? They will easily be defeated, most likely worse!
She ran to the red clouds, getting to the edge of the battle field. Unfortunately, when a Mega Battle starts nobody but the people that are already in it can enter the field. However, she could at least look into the area, shocked when she saw Paxton with a Shiny Alpha Pumpkaboo running around in it. The Rouge Mega was a Salamence and it was in the sky, charging its attack.
It unleashed the Hyper Beam right at the Pumpkaboo. Taunie gasped as Paxton shoved it out of the way, taking the full blast. She stared at his motionless body, thinking she just witnessed his death. Tears rolled down her cheeks, but then he moved. She sighs with relief, letting out a breath she didn't know she was holding. He got up, tossing out Gardevoir, which was Mega Evolved.
Taunie continued to watch Paxton with admiration as he easily commanded the two Pokémon throughout the battle, switching out and continuing his commands. She gasped the Salamence tried to crush him with Fly, him rolling out the way perfectly. She got worried as the Rouge flew into the sky for another Hyper Beam and felt her stomach tighten as Paxton barely avoided it. She was so proud of him as he finished the fight, saving the Alpha Salamence from its pain.
As the terrain fades away, she thought about running up and hugging him, but he was talking to the Pokémon. After he returned Gardevoir, he looked down with a wide, proud smile. He held out a ball, asking if it wanted to join him. He's always so respectful, asking a Shiny, something anyone else would have caught immediately, if it wanted to come with him. She smiled as she left the area, not saying a word. She didn't want to interupt him. Plus, it seemed like he had everything under control.
Watching him in that battle made her realize why she likes him. He's caring, strong, and protective. He's kind and considerate of others. And right now, he could be bragging about having a Shiny Alpha or talking about how heroic he was but instead just keeps it simple and stays humble. That's what makes him great.
"So what happened with you today," Naveen asks. Taunie looks up, snapping out of her thoughts. The whole room is watching her expectantly.
"Oh, me? Well, I caught a Lucario," she responds, holding up its ball.
"Really? You caught it," Paxton asks, smiling when she nods. "Great job!"
She smiles back at the wonderful person in front of her. "Thanks!"
