Chapter 9 - Hatched

It's been a week since I got the egg and finally starting to hatch. The whole family was here. They all were excited especially Zangoose who spent most of this last week training like a madman. Xavier glanced at him he could see that he made a huge breakthrough.

'It looks likes Noah is really going to attempt the promotion test soon,' I thought.

"Look it's Cracking" Jade screamed excitedly.

Xavier rushed up while everyone else stayed back after all he doesn't want his pokemon thinking someone else was its master. A few seconds later a sheath sword appeared with a purple eye and red and purple tassel which look like fingers. it floated to Xavier's hand " Edge".

"It's a Shiny Honedge," Xavier said as he pick the little one up you could see him trying to avoid the blades on its body he opened a bottle of Moomoo milk in his hand and fed it to his new partner.

"Wow I have never seen that pokemon before it looks like a Sword," Jade said as he rushed up to take look.

"It's a Honedge a Steel/Ghost pokemon but how did you get that egg 2750, after all, a pokemon like that is rare and not common in the NAU?" Noah asked

"I didn't I bought a Blipbug egg it looks like the breed house made a mistake again," I said.

" It looks like we finally got a new member of the family," Adam said joyfully.

Xavier was truly more worried than excited after all this Honedge has 4 egg moves which mean it is most definitely some breeder's prized jewel. With Honedge, he will definitely reach great heights but doesn't know what enemy he will attract.

"Edge "Honedge burped as he looked at his surrounding for the first time that's when he saw Zangoose. He unconsciously used Shadow Sneak an appeared behind Zangoose causing it to get into a combat stance.

"Zangoose are you scared of baby " Noah shouted causing Zangoose to get embarrassed.

I knew Honedge's talent was great, but it really shocked him.

" Honedge that will be your big brother from now on go greet him" Xavier orders.

The whole family watched in interest as the two pokemon interacted with each other, Honedge started to move around Zangoose in circles before he finally decide to run back to Xavier peeking at Zangoose from behind his feet.

"He a scaredy-cat, " Jade said while laughing causing Adam to also laugh.

Only I and Noah knew the truth; Honedge circled around Zangoose looking for all of its weaknesses. This Honedge wasn't scared it was smart it figured out that it couldn't beat Zangoose right now so it backed away.

"Dad can you take a day off of work tomorrow," Noah asked

" Why?" Adam asked after all as garbage sorter was a job in which if you missed a day you wouldn't get paid for that day.

"Xavier is planning to get registered to one star and I plan to take the 2-star trainer test" Noah replied

"Brother are you sure I heard the promotion test is hard," Jade said worriedly.

"Yeah I'm ready Zangoose has finally broken through, "Noah said confidently.

"Jade go check on the food in the oven right quick," Adam said.

"Why does it always has to be me" Jade shouted frustrated.

"What going on," Adam said seriously looking at Noah and then Xavier.

"I have a backer now I will promote then we will move to the middle-class area" Noah replied,

"Is your backer really willing to do all of this for you what in it for them? "Adam asked.

" I can't tell you who my backer is all I can tell you is that they're part of NAU "Noah replied.

"What do you think about this Xavier?" Adam asked.

"I trust Noah on this decision after all knowing Noah he already weighed the pros and cons," I said. I already knew what was going on but played it out like I didn't know anything.

Adam looked at his two boys seeing their confidence reminded him of his late wife " It look like yall have already made up your minds I guess this family lifestyle is about to change"Adam said sarcastically.

Adam was happy, but also sad about what kind of father should have to depend on their kids to help improve their family lifestyle ' Victoria I have really failed this family as a father have I 'Adam thought as he walked into the kitchen.

"You should have consulted dad before revealing to the whole family you made him feel like trash," I said to Noah seriously.

Noah looked at Xavier and finally realized that he had approached this situation all wrong.

...

A couple of hours later I could be seen in his room with Honedge sleeping on Zangoose old bed. He looked at the pokemon with interest after all this Pokemon has champion potential something like this shouldn't be in a regular breed house. As he looking for an explanation his phone started to ring.

" Hello, Blake what do you need," I said picking up the phone.

" Xavier have you seen the news," Blake said emotionless

"What news?" I asked.

"Remember how you showed how to get on the dark web the last time," Blake said.

"Oh did I" I replied".

" Why can't you be serious, anyway apparently there is a new title master in the Asia Alliance. ," Blake explained.

"Who is it?" I asked.

" I don't know, " Blake said.

This was huge information the fact a new title master will be appearing is a good thing and a bad thing. This world is full of politics and title masters was like nukes for each group and also the glue. They were a total of 9 title masters in the world 2 in NAU, 1 in SAU, 3 in AA, 2 In EA, and 1 in AU. I was lucky to live in NAU because it's a union a whole new country, but if title masters appeared in an alliance it was way more political and dangerous after all they were still separate countries looking for power. Especially AA which has three; 1 in China, India, and Russia if one of those countries gains another title master it could mean war and a huge power shift that could affect the whole world.

"Anyway, how's your Magby did it hatch yet," I asked.

"Yeah it's lazy Buffon all it does is eat and sleep and when I try to attempt something else it spurts Embers everywhere., but how about you what pokemon did you get."

"It's a surprise," I said.

"Okay I talk to you later," Blake said hanging up.

I forgot this friend of MINE can't take jokes for anything after all he was a cold-blooded person the face he shows to others it just a mask that he put on like I'm doing now. I thought about the new Title Master a huge power shift will be taking place in Asia.

"Now that I think about it my life is about change tomorrow," I said as I held Honedge in my hand preparing to go to sleep.
