“The battle goes to....Rene Kitsunegari!” The vulpix whooped as he returned home from, flush from his victory. “Hey mom!” He barged in through the front door without so much as a preamble. “I won another match!”
A voice called from the kitchen. “That's great dear!” Rene went on, bubbling in excitement.
“I know!” He flopped down on the couch, kicking off his shoes. “Everything is getting so different at school lately! I'm moving up in ranks, winning more matches; Nicole evolved, Emily evolved, Tam broke up...” Rene started ticking off points. “...Cinny formed a team, the jackass in charge is making us wear uniforms—grrr--Floritt's mom is having a baby...”
Before Rene could go on—at length—about everything else that's changed lately at the PCA, his mom cut in again. “Oh Rene, honey could you come here a minute?”
“Okay mom!” Rene got up and wandered into the kitchen. “What's—up?” He stopped short when he saw his mom pouring over a mound of paper taller than a stack of pancakes.
Vera looked up and set aside the pen she'd been writing with. “Rene...sit down please. I want to talk to you about something.”
“...What is it?” Rene asked as he sat down across from her.
“Rene....you know I love you...oh so very much--” Vera bit her lip. “And I didn't want to make this decision without talking to you about it...”
“Mom? Whatever it is, I'll be okay.” He smiled a bit weakly, a tad nervous with where this was going. “What's going on?”
“Rene...” Vera took a breath. “I want another baby.”
“...” Rene blinked, not responding. “...Baby?”
Nodding, the ninetails continued. “Yes...”
“Um, are you looking for a boyfriend?” Rene asked after a minute. Vera laughed.
“No no...” she shook her head. “I'm planning on adopting! That's why I'm going through all this paperwork!” She regarded the table with a groan. “I…just wanted to know what you thought.”
Rene took a deep breath. “What kind of kid?” He asked neutrally.
Vera answered. “I’m thinking of a fire-type to make things easier for us. A baby, real young…” She smiled. “I was thinking of a girl…”
“A girl.” Rene took a deep breath again. And then….he squeeed! “A GIRL!” He started hopping up and down. “I’m gonna have a little sister! EEEE! I’m gonna be a big sibling!” Vera smiled to herself. Sold.
“I’ve picked out a girl who just seemed to call to me…” Vera slid over a picture of a cyndaquil girl in a crib. “She’s not quite a year old. She has no family….I’d like to fix that.”
“Awww….she’s precious!” Rene cooed as he looked at the picture. “When can we pick her up? What’s her name?”
“Well, as soon as I finish this paper work!” Vera groaned. “As for the other…what do you think?” She held up a hand. “And please, don’t name her Nicole. You can name your own daughter that.” Rene’s jaw clicked shut. He started to open it again…Vera quickly added; “Or Floritt, or Neve, or Cinnamon, or Maggie, or Mitzi, or Nubia, or Azura, or Sherilyn, or Sam, or Rahne…”
Rene’s face fell. “…Darn.” He rubbed his chin and then his eyes lit up. “Oooh! How about Candace? We can call her Candy!”
“…Candace Kitsungeri…” Vera looked down at the picture of the lil cyndaquil. “…I like it.”
“And for a middle name, how about Flora?” Rene suggested eagerly.
Vera nodded. “Why not? Then, I take it you’re okay with adopting her?”
“Are you kidding? Of course!”
Smiling, Vera sat back down. “Then I better finish this tonight so we can pick her up as soon as possible!”
Rene whooped! “Yipee! I’m gonna have a little sister!”
