It's the present day on the Pokemon world. Everything is normal, but a virus escapes from a secret lab and the virus manages to mix with certain Pokemon. They become hideous 'monsters'. Some become human completely, others maybe half, or gain special abilities. How will the world react to this? Short stories on some trainers and Pokemon that have to put up with this pain and loss…

Sara---Age: 6

----------------------------------------------------------

"Wah~! Mightyena, you eat so much!"

"Mighty…" she sighed.

I ran up to her and held onto her thick fur. Her nose tickled me gently and I giggled.

"Ahaha, that tickles, Mightyena!"

Just then, Mommy came in, looking very unhappy.

"Sara!" she barked at me, making me jump a little. "Get away from her!"

Suddenly, Mommy took her favorite vase from our book shelf and threatened to hit Mightyena. Mightyena yelped as the vase accidently slipped out of her hands and smashed in front of Mightyena's face.

"Mommy! Please, stop!"

But she didn't stop. She held me tightly in one arm and threw more things from the shelf. The door fell to the ground as men in bright yellow suits came into the room. They smelled like plastic and medicine.

One of them took a small gun out that reminded of Jimmy's little water gun. He put something into it and suddenly I heard Mightyena fall.

My eyes were locked onto Mightyena. Her belly didn't move up and down like it normally did when she was sleeping and she was bleeding a little from a small needle sticking out of her neck.

"Mi…Mightyena!" I screamed as a group of men surrounded her and then she disappeared.

(6 months later…)

"We can't tell her about Mightyena…"

"But…she won't stop asking about her…"

Mommy and Daddy were talking about Mightyena again. I had come down to get some milk for my cookies when I heard them talking in the kitched.

"…I…I never thought it would've come down to this,"

"The virus was undetectable, the professor said, but still, to do this to Sara was too much,"

"It couldn't be helped. Mightyena was turning into a monster, we had to give her to the lab. She would've scared Sara."

"Why would I be scared?"

I unconsciously pushed the door and the two of them stared at me, surprised.

"Mommy, Daddy, where's Mightyena?"

Mommy started to cry and Daddy was quiet.

"Honey, go outside and go play,"

"O…Okay,"

When I got outside, a lady was there already. I just kept on walking until the lady turned around.

"A-Ah…" I stuttered as I blushed from embarrassment.

She smiled at me and turned back around. I gave a little sigh and walked to a little swing that was hung onto a big tree's arm. Daddy did this when I was still a baby.

"H-Hi, I'm Sara, I'm six!" I greeted to the lady, feeling a bit uncomfortable with the silence.

She smiled at me again, and that's when I noticed something on top of her head was moving. I looked up and saw two furry little ears bouncing happily.

I didn't say anything about them, but I was staring really hard at them.

The lady got up and sat beside me.

"S-Sa…R…Ra…" she smiled as she looked at me.

I sat beside her too; not minding my nice and expensive dress, which Mommy loved.

She took my hand and put it up to her face.

I gave a smile and pet her gently.

The lady had long black hair and bright red eyes, but she wasn't scary…She was like a big fluffy Mightyena…
