Stand Proud, Roark. You are Brave!

After paying the fine to the Alliance, Ace sat in the Gym, looking at his phone.

[The Alliance would like to remind Trainers that while Challenging Gym Leaders can be done without need for a badge, please Challenge outside Gym Hours. League Trainers have first priority in Gym Challenges. Any Trainer caught delaying Gym Challengers will be fined upwards of 100,000 Pokedollars!]

[Have a nice day!]

Ace scrolled down and looked at the news, holding his cheek.

[Oreburgh Gym Leader skipping town?! Proof!? Photos of Goddess Stealing Demon King at Indigo Conference!]

[My Wife Cynthia took 3 hours to choose a cookie today! She's so cute!!!]

[Read 'Catching Women instead of Pokemon' online free now!]

Ace clicked his tongue and looked at the last one with disgust.

You disgust me! Go on!

He clicked on it and saw the sub-human grammar level… His eye twitched and he clicked off. Even a troglodyte had better spelling and grammar skills!

Going back to scrolling, Faye laid on a beach chair, playing with a Gameboy, "AHHH!" Roark was polishing Cranidos' head as he looked over, "Huh?" Faye flailed on the chair, "Ace-sama! Does it have to be so hard?!"

Ace didn't even look over, "Watch how you speak, Faye. There's nothing hard about it." Faye rolled around angrily, "I mean the game!" Ace waved a hand, "It's more fun that way." Faye pointed at herself, "Do I look like I'm having fun?!"

Roark looked over and adjusted his glasses, Ace turned and looked at her before sharing a glance with Roark, they said in unison, "Yes, you do!" Faye clenched her fists angrily!

Ace chuckled and Roark shook his head with a smile, "Ace, where is everyone?" Ace scrolled on his phone again, raising his brows at an article titled [Thunder Goddess Elesa's secret photo shoot?!] as he replied, "Inspector Joy released a warning to the Trainers. If they're not here for the Badge, they can battle on their own time, otherwise they get a fine."

Faye scratched her head, "You can get fined?" Ace nodded, "Oh… I got fined 10 million for leaving." Faye and Roark were dumbfounded! Faye shouted, "How are you gonna pay, Ace-sama?!" Ace looked at her strangely, "I already paid it."

Faye was stunned, "Huh? OH! I forgot you were rich!" she smiled sweetly, "Ace-sama, can I have 100 million as an allowance?" Ace looked at her with twitching lips, "You need 100 million as an allowance?" Faye nodded, "Makeup is expensive."

Roark asked in a daze, "You need Makeup, you look fine to me." Faye rubbed her face, looking at Roark, "Everyone wants to be beautiful, okay?!" Ace looked at Roark and gave him a thumbs up. 

Stand Proud, Roark. You are BRAVE!

You don't need makeup, you look better without> You look ugly with makeup> you're shit at putting on makeup> you're a loser> losers are ugly> you're ugly.

Faye nearly exploded!

Ace swiped on his phone and said, "I sent you 1 million. Go buy whatever." Faye jumped up with excitement, "Ace-Samaaaaaaa~!" as she jumped up and kissed him on the cheek. Ace held her face without looking, "Sorry. I'm not a Pedophile." as he pushed her face out, making her flip to the ground.

Faye grabbed Roark and ran off.

Ace turned his phone to the side, zooming in on Elesa's 'secret photoshoot' then he sneered, "Nice try! It's fake!" 

A few dozen minutes later

Ace laid on a rock, bored. He tossed and turned before getting up and leaving. As long as he doesn't leave the City, it should be good, right?

Ace stretched and walked around the City, looking at the Rift. He didn't see anything wrong with it, "Was Roark lying to me…?" He walked over and looked at the Rift closely before walking inside.

He paused and looked up, seeing two Alpacas fighting in the sky.

Ah. I see the problem.

Ace whistled loudly, "Hey! You two!" everyone had evacuated already, so Ace was alone. Actually, Cynthia was on her way since the Morning, but she was on vacation in Unova.

Dialga and Palkia in their Hisuian Forms glared at him. Ace put his hands in his pockets, "You both want to occupy this space, right? But if you keep fighting, then this space will collapse and nobody will own it."

Dialga looked at Palkia before they turned, blasting Ace with a Roar of Time and Spacial Rend. Ace froze and flickered into the sky, frowning at them, "Don't force me!" Dialga roared, "DiAlGa!" Ace's eyes twitched and he took his hands out of his pockets, "Alright, buddy. Nobody mocks me and gets away with it!"

As he was about to send Dialga to Heaven, Cynthia appeared, "Ace?!" Ace held up a fist, looking back at Cynthia, "Huh? What are you doing here?" Cynthia's lips twitched, "Nono, what are YOU doing…"

Ace looked at Dialga as Palkia stood on the side ready to watch a funny show.

The trio: ????????

Ace said slowly, "Well, these two guys were making a ruckus. I was going to teach them a lesson." Cynthia was speechless, Ace looked at her, "You didn't bring that chinese guy, right?" Cynthia looked at him suspiciously and Ace sighed, patting Dialga, "Sorry, you could've had a snack…"

Dialga shook him off, roaring angrily.

Ace shrugged and Cynthia's lips twitched, "We can fight them together, Ace! Do you have Noive-..."

Ace looked at Dialga, "What did you just call me?!" as he punched Dialga in the head, smashing him into the ground, shaking the entire Hisui Area!

Palkia, Cynthia, Dialga: ????????

Ace snorted and cracked his knuckles, Cynthia was really speechless now. Turns out, martial arts can train to this extent!

Dialga looked up and blasted a Roar of Time at Ace, who flickered to the side, kicking the air and appearing in front of Dialga, smashing down a black fist covered in black lightning!

Dialga threw his head at the fist and they collided! Ace was bounced back 100 meters into the sky as Dialga roared even louder, very very angry.

Ace clicked his tongue, not strong enough for this alpaca yet? What a shame…
