Ace flexed his arm and stood up, carrying the woman up! She giggled and looked at him with a big grin, "Is this what you did while you ran away?" Ace's face turned green and he stuttered, "I-You-Wha-AHH!"
The woman swung around and clung to his back, tickling him as he screamed out loud, laughing so hard it hurt!
The woman dropped him and stepped on his chest, leaning on her knee with a smile, "No 'I missed you so much, my dear sister~'??" Ace looked at her and cried, "I missed you so much, my dear sister!" The girl laughed and picked him up, dusting him off happily, "I really missed you, Ace."
Ace looked at her and sighed, "What are you doing here, Bea?" Bea looked up at him and hugged him suddenly, "I came to see you…" Ace hugged her back and rubbed her back, muttering awkwardly, "Sorry for running away…"
Bea let him go and smiled slightly, "It's okay…" Ace wiped the tears from her eyes and sighed, Bea coughed and crossed her arms, smiling happily, "Well, Sonia told me you were here but that you also went for a Gym Examination? I thought you didn't want to be a Gym Leader…"
She looked at his face and frowned, "What happened to your face?" as she touched the red mark, it felt the same as normal skin! She looked confused and Ace grabbed her hand, forcing a smile, "Nothing."
Bea frowned and asked directly, "Is it from the person who killed your Pokemon?" Ace froze and Bea snorted, "Sonia told me!" Ace complained, "That annoying girl…" Bea glared at him, "If it weren't for that 'annoying girl' I wouldn't have even known where you were!"
Ace choked and Bea put her hands on her hips, "Tell me, who was it?!" Ace shook his head and said flatly, "I'll deal with it." Bea frowned slightly and asked, "You don't trust me?" Ace sighed and retorted, "I trust you, but I want to handle it by myself!"
Bea looked at him for a few moments before saying, "Oh… Ace has grown up!" Ace's lips twitched and Bea changed the subject, looking at all the Pokemon around. She smiled happily, "Is this your new team?"
Before Ace could say anything, Bea released all her Pokemon.
As she usually did, she brought all of them with her!
Bea ignored the carrying limit most times… Ace watched as Machamp, Machoke, Machop, Grapploct, Sirfetch'd, Hawlucha, Hitmontop, Pangoro, Falinks, Sawk, Throh, Scraggy, and 2 Tyrogues appeared.
Ace sighed as the Pokemon looked at him, most of them jumping on him happily. He held them and smiled slightly, "Hey, you guys." Bea smiled at the scene, looking over at Sirfetch'd and Machamp, saying, "Wow! These guys are well bred! This is the Sirfetch'd with three leeks?"
Ace clarified, "Machamp isn't… Forget it…" Bea held Sirfetch'd, who quacked in confusion. She ruffled his feathers and smiled, "Nice muscles, kid!" then turning to Machamp and nodding, "Great form!"
Machamp waved at her with blushing, thank you for the compliments!
Bea put down the Sirfetch'd as Ace waved at everyone, "Bea is my sister, you're all basically half hers anyway. Go play with each other. Noivern, return to normal… Stop hiding in Flaaffy's wool!"
Bea looked over as a mini Noivern poked his head out of a Flaaffy's fur, making Flaaffy blush. Ace rolled his eyes, you're not in the same egg group, it's not possible!
Noivern reverted to normal, roaring as Bea looked up at him, "Awesome!" Noivern smirked and nodded, saying "Noivern."
Which directly translated to 'You have a good eye, human!'
Ace's eyes twitched.
How come you don't act like this in front of Ice Types?
Bea stroked his fur and smiled happily, saying "Oh! That reminds me!" she looked at Ace and walked over, "There's a reason it took so long to come here!" Ace looked at her in confusion as she handed over two Pokeballs.
Ace held the Pokeballs, looking at her still confused as she smiled, "I remember you talking about your favorite Pokemon when we were kids. After I heard that you lost your Pokemon… I went to find these two!"
Ace was dumbfounded, looking at Bea with an absentminded look, "You…" Bea rolled her eyes and smiled, "Well, open 'em up!" Ace released the two Pokemon and looked at them.
A Dreepy and an Applin!
Ace didn't know what to say, he teared up and smiled, hugging Bea tightly. Bea blushed in embarrassment, "Brother…" Ace kissed her head and let her go, stroking her hair with a loving look, "Thank you." Bea rubbed her nose and grinned, "Of course! It's what a sister should do!"
Ace laughed and Bea looked at the two little guys, who looked a bit scared, she smiled, "This is my brother, okay? Remember our deal? You'll be his Pokemon now." The Dreepy and Applin looked at Ace before turning to the giant Noivern.
They came over and nudged Ace's legs.
Ace picked up Bea and put her on his shoulders before picking up the two little guys, smiling gently, "Don't worry, I won't disappoint you! I promise!" the two chirped lightly and rested in his arms.

Ace's lips twitched, well there was a lot of work to do! He walked over to the Spring and said to Bea, looking up at her, "I have a Hot Spring here." Bea's eyes lit up, "Perfect!" she turned, "Everyone, come on!"
Ace looked at his Pokemon and nodded, "Come in, everyone."
