Chapter 1

Will threw his six Pokeballs up in the air, sending out his Blaziken, Gardevoir, Espeon, Umbreon, Gallade, and Lopunny. "Alright guys, you've been doing well, so I'm letting you have this afternoon to yourselves. My only rule is that all of us meet back here before sundown, because there might be a snowstorm tonight. That's all I have to say, so go off and do what ever you want," Will said, laying himself against a tree for a nap.

"I don't know about you guys, but I'm gonna go train," Blaziken said as he walked out of the clearing toward the mountains.

"I believe I'll find a nice spot for some meditation," Gallade said as he walked off in the other direction.

"Whatever, I don't really know where I'm going, nor do I care," Umbreon said as he stalked off into the forest.

"Hey girls, we'd better keep an eye on the boys so they don't get into any trouble. I'll go after Blaze," Gardevoir said to Espeon and Lopunny.

"I'll take Umbra," said Espeon, running off in Umbreon's direction.

"And that leaves me with Gallade," Lopunny said. "By the way, Gardevoir, why did you choose to tail Blaze instead?" she asked.

"Oh, um… I gotta go, or else I'll lose the trail!" Gardevoir said quickly, floating quickly down the same trail Blaziken took.

'I swear, I will never understand that girl…' Lopunny thought to herself as she headed off in the same direction as Gallade.

End Note:

Alright, before anyone gets confused about the names, here they are:

Blaziken: Blaze

Espeon: Sola

Umbreon: Umbra

I couldn't think of names for the other three, so they don't have nicknames...

I do realize that this is a short chapter, but its only purpose is to set up a platform for the story to be built upon. Again, please give me some constructive criticism, and remember, this is the first fanfiction I have ever published, so be gentle.

Until Next Time,
