Meetings

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

AN::: This is not a crossover. The Heero in this story has nothing to do with the Heero in GW. I repeat this is not a crossover. Except that I like the name.

~~

Disclaimer: I forgot one in the prologue. I own not Pokemon… I do however own Heero (He is still not the GW Heero) I do own the Magi.

Delia Powers was standing outside the local diner, when a young male stranger walked into town. Mary May, her best friend, and Sho Oak, Mary's boyfriend, pointed the newcomer out to Delia.

"Isn't he cute?" Mary pointed to the teenager; he was no more than fifteen years old- he was walking down the road towards the diner. He wore a dark blue cloak; under the cloak was a black shirt with a blue vest. Blue pants clad his legs and his upon feet were black and white patterned boots... His clothing was dusty from the road. She then looked at his face; he had warm amber eyes and long black hair. He was tanned from traveling.

"Wow...." Delia whispered.

"Hey, I thought that you vowed that you would never date a man who "had the bad taste to come to this back water town, much less live here." Sho stated.

"But he's cute and you have never left and with the way your parents are you never will." Mary looked at Delia who was still watching the teenager.

"I'm not even fifteen yet; my parents think I'm too young to go off on my own." Delia was still watching the boy.

"Delia!" Exclaimed her best friend, "Everyone else our age including myself and Sho have gone on Pokemon Journeys. You haven't. You are the only one who still hasn't, your parents keep saying 'maybe next year.' Well at the rate you are going ... Maybe will stay maybe."

"And then you will be too old and you parents will pressure you into marring and having a family. He is a wanderer, he has no Pokemon but he is traveling. He could get you out of here and he will not be afraid of your parents." Sho put in his two cents.

"Maybe, after all, all the boys in town are afraid of my father. And he scares them away."

The young man had approached the diner and entered during this conversation. A few minutes later yelling came from inside. Delia and her friends ran inside.

"What's wrong, Cook?" Delia got between Cook and the young man.

"This boy wants to pay with weird gold coins."

"Cook- gold is gold, why are you upset?"

"I have never seen coins like that."

Delia turned around, "Where are you from?" She asked the young man.

"My town has stayed out of the doings of the rest of the island. We mint our own coins from a gold mine underneath the town."

"Fine- I'll pay for you and we can get the coins appraised and changed and you can pay me back." Delia then took the bill for him and paid for the food.

"Thank you." he bowed to her.

"Come on." She smiled at him and dragged him to the jewelers.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

"So, what's your name?" Delia and the young stranger were sitting under a tree in the park after changing his gold for currency.

"Heero, what is yours?'

"Delia." She then noticed something over his shoulder. "Oh no- my parents are coming this way." She stood up. "I have to go."

"Wait." He stood up and pulled her to the other side of the tree. "What is wrong?"

"My parents don't like me to talk to boys. I have a feeling that they want me to marry a specific person but they haven't introduced us yet. And I want freedom!! I don't want to live under their rules all my life."

"I understand…." He pulled her around the tree some more as her parents walked by.

"Where is that girl…?" Her father looked around. "I thought I saw her over here."

"Come, Dear, we have to greet our guests; when she comes back home we can tell her." Delia's mother dragged her father off towards their house.

"I want to find out what that was about." Delia quietly followed her parents.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

When she got home she realized that Heero had followed her. "Oh! Why did you follow…?"

"I felt that I should…. I can leave…."

"No!! Please stay." She looked at her house then snuck up to the backyard with him right behind her. She looked around the wall, and then crawled under some bushes. She came up to the porch where her parents and guests were talking.

"So this is your son. I approve," her mother was saying, while inspecting a young well dressed man, he was a few years older then herself.

He had narrow black eyes, slicked back black hair and square jaw and a nasty expression on his face. To Delia he looked like the kind of person that liked to pull the wings off Beedrill and Butterfree just to see them flop- or to see their pain.

"So where is your daughter?" the young man's father asked.

"She is out- with friends. She should be home very soon," Delia's father explained.

Delia started to quietly back out of the bushes. Hero followed her. When she got back to the corner she rounded it on her hands and knees- then stood up and ran for Sho and May. Heero followed her. When she reached Sam Oak's home and lab complex she ran around back and climbed a tree to a platform and curled up next to the trunk. Heero looked up into the tree as Sho and May came out of the house.

"What happened?" Sho demanded.

"I think the son of the friends of her parents scared her…. Hell, he scared me, and I do not even have to get to know him."

Delia's voice came floating down. "I'm not going back… you can't make me!!!"

"Delia, come down and tell me what is wrong." Sam Oak came out of the forest where he had been feeding his Pokemon. He had reddish-brown hair that was graying at the temples; his eyes were a warm brown he wore jeans and a work shirt. He was strong, fit, and tanned from working out in the sun with Pokemon all day.

Delia climbed down and sat at a picnic table. "I heard my parents talking last night about how they wanted me to marry the son of some friends of theirs. I also heard then say their friends were coming today. Heero," She indicated that boy she met that day, "And I saw them looking for me in the park, so we followed them and hid in the bushes. I saw the most evil boy… he scared me… I… I lost it… all I could think about was getting away." She put her head in her arms and started to cry.

Heero sat down next to her, and put his arms around her shoulders. "I felt that he was evil! He seems to be waiting for something…."

"What do you mean?" Delia lifted her head.

"Something about the whole thing… I do not think that your parents were completely acting of their own accord. Or if they were then something is keeping them from seeing what those people really are. But can you not just say that you do not want anything to do with him?"

"No, they would have a wedding by proxy- they still believe in such things. She might be able to hold off two more weeks; until she is fifteen though; then she can marry whoever she wishes and they can't do a thing about it." Mary explained.

"Huh." Heero said in confusion. "My people have no such laws."

"If she can stall the wedding until after her fifteenth birthday and then marry someone else…." Sho started. "But if she just runs away without getting married they can drag hr back or marry her by proxy, and then drag her back."

"So, what I would have to do is set the wedding date for just after my birthday… then marry someone else before the wedding but after I'm fifteen. They never remember when my birthday is." Then Delia started crying again, putting her head back in her arms. "And who in this town has the guts to go against my father?"

"You have two weeks- maybe you'll get lucky…." Mary tried to console her friend.

"Lucky… I have to go home… I'll, hopefully, see you guys tomorrow."

As she got up to leave, Heero touched her arm, "I will see you tomorrow, even if I have to sneak in."

"Thank you." She ran off to her house making plans in her head how to get out of the fix she was in."

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Heero turned toward Professor Oak, I need a job. Do you know of any openings?"

"Yes, in fact, I need an assistant and someone to run errands for me."

"That sounds fine, thank you."

"I also have an extra room. You can live here if you like?"

Heero looked at him, "Why do you trust me?"

"Delia trusts you and the Pokemon are still about, not hiding. That is enough for me."

"Ahhh… then I have much to learn about Pokemon… and Delia." He smiled. "Thank you. I will take you up on that offer."

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

The stars were bright that night, and Heero was staring out his window contemplating why he acted as he had that day.

'It's like I'm connected to her, and I want to be connected to her…. I know that I am not afraid of her parents, but I do not know how she feels about me…. Although I am sure she does not know how I feel about her.'

He got up from where he was lying on the flood and went to his bed.

'I will give it two weeks. I will ask her on her birthday. That way we have at least a little time to get to know each other.'

Heero fell asleep after that.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Delia was curled up in a little ball on her bed. 'That boy they want me to marry is worse then I thought, when he touched me I felt like I was gonna hurl. But he seemed surprised that I was still afraid of him after he touched me. I don't want to marry him, but I feel like I really want to get to know Heero better. Father wants me to introduce that boy to my friends… I'll introduce Heero as a friend, after all I think of him as one. This way I can get to spend more time with Heero….'

Delia soon fell asleep as well.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Meanwhile, in the hotel, a young man was very angry….

"Something blocked my spell!!! But there is no one here who knows magic!!! Maybe I made an error. That girl will bring me great Power, her and any children she has. I must posses her, but I can't if she is that afraid of me." He kicked the empty shells whet were once his parents. "I will stay and get rid of these- I'll send them home, although they won't make in. They'll die in a car accident."

He then climbed into bed. "I will work farther on bespelling the girl as well." With the he fell asleep as well.
