CHAPTER 5:TOWARD THE EAST

11 DAYS BEFORE THE CORONATION.

DIAZ, BRAIXEN, DITTO AND MEWTWO WERE HEADING ALL NIGHT TO THE EASTERN KINGDOM, IN SEARCH OF BELLI AND POSSIBLE HELP.

DIAZ:....HEY LOOK.

AND THEY SAW THAT THE SNOW BEGAN TO DISAPPEAR AND THE SUN BEGAN TO SHINE.

DITTO:SUMMER.

MEWTWO:THE EASTERN BEACHES ARE THE BEST, A PERFECT WEATHER FOR SWIMMING.

BRAIXEN:I LOVE THIS SUN.

DIAZ:...LOOK.

AND IN THE DISTANCE THE KINGDOM OF THE EAST WAS SEEN.

DIAZ:...THE KINGDOM OF FEMALES.

TIME BACK, WHEN DIAZ WAS 6 YEARS OLD. HE HAD GONE WITH MAXIMILIANO TO THE EASTERN KINGDOM TO TREAT SEVERAL MATTERS.

MAXIMILIANO:WELCOME DIAZ. THIS IS THE KINGDOM OF THE EAST.

AND DIAZ SEE EVERYTHING.

DIAZ:....THERE ARE MANY FEMALES.

MAXIMILIANO:I KNOW. THIS KINGDOM IS CHARACTERIZED BY THE AMOUNT OF FEMALES THERE ARE.

AND WALKING IN THE VILLAGE. SEE EVERYTHING.

DIAZ:....

AND SEE A CURIOUS PLACE. AND IT COMES A LITTLE.

DIAZ:....

POKEMON:DO YOU WANT SOMETHING LITTLE GUY?.

DIAZ:...WHO ARE YOU?.

POKEMON:I'M A BLAZIKEN.

DIAZ:....REALLY?.

BLAZIKEN:DID YOU DOUBT IT?

DIAZ:NO, SORRY LADY. IS THAT.....IT DOESN'T LOOK LIKE THE OTHER BLAZIKEN I HAVE SEEN.

BLAZIKEN:I AM A SPECIAL KIND OF BLAZIKEN.

DIAZ:NONO, I DON'T DENY THAT. BUT I DON'T UNDERSTAND WHAT DOES IT HAVE IN HIM-

MAXIMILIANO:QUICK DIAZ!.

AND TAKING IT BY THE HAND. IT AWAYS AS MUCH AS IT CAN.

DIAZ:MAXIMILIANO, WHAT HAD-

MAXIMILIANO:I WILL EXPLAIN IT TO YOU WHEN YOU ARE KING!.

AND THEY ARRIVE AT THE CASTLE.

DIAZ:WILL I ALSO HAVE THOSE-

MAXIMILIANO: COULD YOU STOP WONDERING ME ABOUT THE LOOK OF THE BLAZIKEN? ON RARE OCCASIONS SEVERAL POKÉMONS END UNEXPLAINELY WITH THAT LOOK. END OF THE TALK, UNTIL BELLI COMES BACK AND REMOVES THIS SHAMEFUL EXPLANATION.

AND ENTERING THE CASTLE. COME TO THE QUEEN WITH HER SUCCESSOR AND HER GUARD. AND THEY KNEEL.

MAXIMILIANO:HIS MAJESTY.

FLYGON:...

MAXIMILIANO:AND HIS NEXT HIS MAJESTY.

SKIPLOOM:...

FLYGON:A TASTE TO SEE YOU MAXIMILIANO.

DIAZ:....maximiliano. Who is that there?.

MAXIMILIANO:...this is rose.

DIAZ:....is she another kind of special female of the kingdom?

MAXIMILIAN:no. she acquired that form after becoming a guardian of time.

DIAZ:ah.

ROSE:I CAN LISTEN TO YOU.

DIAZ:OU, I...SORRY.

ROSE:....

AND ROSE APPROACHES DIAZ. AND WATCH IT CAREFULLY.

DIAZ:....EXCUSE ME...MRS. ROSE.

FLYGON:IS SOMETHING HAPPENING ROSE?.

ROSE:...NO.

AND WAYS TO THE SIDE.

FLYGON:GOOD DIAZ. I ASKED MAXIMILIANO TO BRING YOU TO UNDERSTAND THE FUNCTION OF OUR KINGDOM.

DIAZ:I THANK YOU FOR TELLING ME.

FLYGON:AS YOU'VE ALREADY HEARD. OUR KINGDOM IS SPECIALIZED IN THE NUMBER OF WOMEN. AND USUALLY WE WANT TO SHOW ALL OTHER KINGDOMS AND PLACES THAT A WOMAN CAN DO MEN'S THINGS.

DIAZ:.....AND WHAT ELSE?.

FLYGON:.....EXCUSE ME?.

MAXIMILIANO:DIAZ.

DIAZ:SORRY, I DIDN'T MEAN TO SOUND BAD. IS THAT YES, I AGREE ON THAT OF THE RESPECT FOR WOMEN AND THOSE THINGS THAT I HAVE HEARD, BUT....WHAT OTHER SERVICE DO THEY PROVIDE ?.

FLYGON:...THE SERVICE THAT FEMALES ARE EQUAL TO MALES.

DIAZ:....IS IT ALL?.

MAXIMILIANO:MANNERS, DIAZ.

DIAZ:SORRY, I CURIOUSLY SAW THE SHIPPING REPORT. AND USUALLY 30% OF THE PRODUCTIONS GO TO THIS KINGDOM. WHILE WE AND THE OTHER KINGDOMS RECEIVE A PRODUCTION OF 23.33333333333333%. THEN WE SEND MORE TO THEM ... AND THEY ONLY PAY US WITH RIGHTS ONLY FOR THE FEMALES ?.

AND ROSE TAKES DIAZ BY THE NECK.

ROSE:EXCUSE MY INSOLENCE "MAJESTY". BUT YOU SHOULD BE GRATEFUL THAT FEMALES CAN HAVE THESE CONTRIBUTIONS.

DIAZ:YES OK, I UNDERSTAND. BUT MINIMUM THAT EACH KINGDOM HAS 25%. IF WE GIVE MORE TO YOUR KINGDOM THEN IT MEANS THAT YOUR CONTRIBUTIONS ARE THE BEST FOR EACH KINGDOM.

ROSE:AND EXACTLY WHAT GIVES YOUR KINGDOM TO US?

DIAZ:THE KINGDOM PROVIDES A HOME AND A BED FOR FOREIGN POKEMONS AND THOSE EXPELLED FROM THEIR KINGDOM, AND SO FAR WE HELP A LOT OF KINGDOMS WITH OVERCUMPTION. THE KINGDOM OF THE WEST TRANSPORTS THE FOOD WE EAT AND THE SOUTH PROVIDES CONSTRUCTION MATERIALS, AMONG OTHERS. BUT UNTIL NOW I HAVE NOT HEARD OF ANY "REAL" CONTRIBUTION FROM THIS KINGDOM.

ROSE:...

MAXIMILIANO:I AM VERY SORRY MRS ROSE. DIAZ...DOESN'T KNOW MUCH ABOUT HOW THINGS ARE HERE.

AND SUDDENLY. ROSE AND DIAZ DISAPPEAR.

MAXIMILIANO:...WHAT?

FLYGON:OH NO, EVERYONE TO THE CENTER OF THE ROYAL GUARD!.

MAXIMILIANO:WHAT'S HAPPENING?!.

SKIPLOOM:ROSE GETS ANGRY!.

AND EVERYONE COMES OUT OF THERE. WHILE.

CUTIEFLY:AND I SAID TO MY HUSBAND "YOU WILL HAVE RESPECT WHEN YOU BRING THE MONEY THAT I EARN EVERY DAY FROM MY WORK". AND HE COWARDLY SITTED IN HIS ARMCHAIR AND WATCHED THE CHILDREN PLAY.

GUARD:FRIEND. YOUR HUSBAND SHOULD MAKE HIMSELF.

CUTIEFLY:I KNOW....EVEN THOUGH I HAVE CONTROL IN THE BED.

GUARD:WHAT?.

CUTIEFLY:WHAT?.

AND SUDDENLY, IN THE CENTER, ROSE AND DIAZ APPEAR.

GUARD:ROSE?.

ROSE:....AWAY.

GUARD:...OH NO. ATTENTION TO ALL! IT HAPPENED AGAIN!.

AND ALL THE GUARDS ARE KEPT AT A DISTANCE FROM DIAZ AND ROSE.

DIAZ:WHAT HAPPENS? WHERE I AM?.

AND THROW DIAZ TO THE SIDE. AND THE GUARDS, SEIZING IT, PUT IT ON THE FLOOR.

DIAZ:HEY, WHAT'S HAPPENING?!.

GUARD:WHAT DID YOU TELL ROSE ?.

DIAZ:WHAT?.

GUARD: WHEN ROSE FEELS INSULTED. FIX EVERYTHING IN ONE ON ONE COMBAT.

GUARD: WE COULD TALK HER TO CANCEL THE FIGHT. JUST TELL US WHAT YOU SAID.

DIAZ: I JUST TOLD HIM THAT HIS KINGDOM CONTRIBUTES NOTHING AND THAT THEY SHOULD HAVE 25% SO THAT EVERYONE-

AND ALL ARE IMPACTED.

GUARD:ARE YOU TRYING TO LOWER OUR SALARY?!.

GUARD:I NEED THAT MONEY, YOU CAN'T LOWER IT!

CUTIEFLY:IF MY HUSBAND DRAPION FINDS OUT. I WILL LOSE CONTROL OF THE BED. I DECIDE WHEN TO PLAY WITH DIGLETT! JUST ME!!.

GUARDS:FIGHT! FIGHT! FIGHT!.

DIAZ:....OH GOD.

AND ROSE LOOKED AT HIM WITH HATE.

ROSE:GET READY.

DIAZ:I-I. I DON'T WANT TO FIGHT AGAINST YOU.

ROSE:YOU WILL HAVE DEFEATED OUR SUCCESSOR. BUT I AM THE ONE WHO PROTECTS THE TIME.

AND ROSE RUNS FAST TO HIM.

DIAZ:think it's eeeee, think eeeee, think it's eeeee.

AND ABOUT TO HIT HIM, ROSE HEARS WHAT DIAZ SAYS. AND BEFORE TOUCHING IT, SHE STOPS.

DIAZ:OH NO, I DON'T WANT TO DIE!! YOU WIN, THEY KEEP 30%, I EVEN GIVE THEM A 15% MORE!! BUT I DON'T WANT TO FIGHT!! ....

AND OPENING HIS EYES. NOTE THAT SHE DIDN'T HIT HIM.

DIAZ:....

ROSE:...HOW DO YOU KNOW THAT NAME?

DIAZ:...WHAT?

AND HOLD IT.

ROSE:HOW DO YOU KNOW EEEEE?!.

DIAZ:YEAH. MY FATHER SIMÓN FIGHTED AGAINST A GIRL FROM THE BORDER AND SURVIVED !!.

ROSE:...SIMÓN AND ALVARO?.

DIAZ:YES, MY GOD YES!!. PLEASE DO NOT HURT ME!, I'M 6 YEARS OLD!!.

ROSE: ....

AND RELEASES IT.

FLYGON:ROSE, WAIT. IT IS ILLEGAL TO HURT THE SUCCESSOR!!.....

AND EVERYONE NOTICED THAT ROSE SAW DIAZ ON THE FLOOR.

DIAZ:....

ROSE:....WHERE ARE THEY?

DIAZ:WHAT?

ROSE:.....

AND ROSE WAS RETIRING

FLYGON:...ROSE-

ROSE: 25% DOESN'T SOUND THAT BAD, IT WILL BE FAIR FOR EVERYONE. FINAL POINT.

AND SHE LEAVES.

DIAZ:....

GUARD:...THE NORTH REDUCED OUR SALARY!!

GUARDS:BUUUUUUH!!

CUTIEFLY:IF MY HUSBAND GAINS CONTROL OF THE BED, AND I CAN NO LONGER TOUCH AND KISS DIGLETT !! I'M KILLING YOU MYSELF!!

AND FINISHING THE MEETING. MAXIMILIANO AND DIAZ RETIRE.

MAXIMILIANO:....

DIAZ:....I DIDN'T WANT TO CAUSE PROBLEMS.

MAXIMILIANO:...IN FACT...I THINK YOU DID WELL. NOW ALL KINGDOMS HAVE 25% OF ALL PRODUCTIONS. SO....WELL DONE.

DIAZ:...OU...NO PROBLEM, i Guess.

MAXIMILIANO:....WHAT DID YOU TELL ROSE?.

DIAZ:WHAT?.

MAXIMILIANO: I DON'T SEE BRUISES OR WOUNDS....ROSE IS ONE OF THE MOST DANGEROUS GUARDS IN THIS KINGDOM, HIS COMPETITIONS ALWAYS END WITH SOMEONE VERY HURT....WHAT DID YOU TELL HIM?

DIAZ:...I DON'T KNOW. I JUST WONDER ABOUT MY DAD AND ALVARO.

MAXIMILIANO:WHAT?

DIAZ:....

AND RETURNING TO OUR TIME. DIAZ AND THE OTHERS ENTER THE KINGDOM, THE WHICH SEEMED NORMAL.

DIAZ:....THERE ARE STILL MANY WOMEN.

DITTO:MMMMM.

MEWTWO:SHUT UP.

DIAZ:WELL, WE'LL DO THIS. MEWTWO, YOU HAVE MORE RESPECT THAN ANYONE ELSE SO IT WILL BE EASY FOR YOU TO ASK FOR A TALK WITH THE QUEEN OF THE EAST, YOU AND DITTO GO AND TELL HER ABOUT THE NORTHERN MATTER.

DITTO:YES SIR.

MEWTWO:...SHOULD I GO WITH HIM?.

DIAZ:....

MEWTWO:...FINE, WHAT WILL YOU DO?.

DIAZ:BELLI IS IN THE TOWN. SO I MUST LOOK FOR IT.

BRAIXEN:I ACCOMPANY YOU.

DIAZ:THANK YOU. AND GUYS....BE CAREFUL.
