Blue finally gets his chance to face Bea and Grapploct and prove his skill as a Lucario, with Ri and Two and Red at his side to watch. With Ri's past with Bea, however, things aren't nearly as easy as just watching.

So... I think this might be the last story I write in this, like, long-winded series that I've started since... https://www.furaffinity.net/view/46462069/. I think I've made it clear that Ri and Two are fucked up pokemon and even though I *really* care about them and their stories it's starting to get a little depressing, honestly, keeping writing them being miserable and unhappy all the time. I don't know if I'm *never* going to fill in the in-between space but I might go ahead and write a story or two where they're already working their bar and getting comfortable with their new lives and fulfilled.
