Ch. 1 The petilil and the Heroic treeko

A young petilil tried to get out of a dungeon as fast as she could. She was completely exhausted, but still she dragged on. The dungeon was called Frozen in Anger for the way it was frozen in time in the middle of the volcano's eruption. Chunks of rock and lava were still suspended in mid air. This obviously being a fire-type dungeon the petilil was at a disadvantage by being a grass-type.

It wasn't her choice to go there. She had made a tricky deal and was thrown in to the mystery dungeon when she didn't deliver. The rumor floating around was that the dungeon was one of the most dangerous in the area with fifty floors and fire-type Pokémon so strong that even their ember could melt giant chunks of rock.

She got to the next room and spotted the stairs at the other side. Her small worn out green body flooded with energy as she charged to the stairs.

This is the last floor, she thought to herself. I can't believe I made it.

Suddenly out of nowhere a vulpix stuck her with a quick attack. Her delicate skin scraped against the hard, ragged ground. Before she could react, the vulpix jumped on her. Soon more and more vulpix showed up and some ninetales with them.

They threw her around like a rag doll and almost burned her to a crisp. It seemed like ages until they finally got bored and pinned her down again. The grass-type thrashed as hard as she could, but it was useless. Accepting defeat she stopped thrashing, closed her eyes and waited to be finished off. To her surprise the blow never came and she felt the vulpix being lifted off of her now cut and bruised body. The petilil opened one eye and found a treeko trying to fight off the fire foxes that had attacked her. Being the self-centered Pokémon that she was the petilil saw this as a chance to escape while the foxes were distracted. She slowly got up and flew to the stairs.

She paused when she heard a loud yell behind her. The floating grass-type turned around in time to watch as the treeko got thrown at a wall. She winced at the sight. The pain he must be feeling, yet he got up again and flung himself at his attackers.

It must have been something in his eyes or the way he was fighting to help protect a complete stranger. Whatever it was, that something made her go back. She flew at the treeko, grabbed his arm, turned around and, as fast as she could, raced to get to the stairs ignoring the pain she felt.

She climbed them quickly; never slowing down for she knew if she did their pursuers would catch up with them. It didn't take long before they were at the top and flying towards the dull grey forest.

When she thought it was safe the petilil placed the treeko next to a tree and sat beside him. He didn't say anything. Most likely it was because of how painful it must have felt to even move.

Her body ached, but that was probably nothing compared to what her savior felt. The young petilil was a quick healer, the pain was already starting to die down and she was starting to regain some energy. Remembering she had a bag strapped onto her body, the female grass-type rummaged through it and pulled out a single blue berry.

"Why?" she asked quietly.

"I saw an angel get attacked. I couldn't just sit there and watch, now could I?" his voice came out in a low whisper.

"What's your name?" she asked him.

"Treeko," he replied weakly.

"Thanks for saving me," she said then dropped her last Oran berry next to him though he didn't appear to notice. She picked herself up and floated backwards saying, "See ya around."

"Wait! Y- Your name…" Treeko said.

"Rin," she whispered as she disappeared into the shadows of the trees.
