Outside was cold, it was raining. Raindrops pattered on the windows. Thunder shook the ground, followed by lightning. Inside the lab, three Pokémon slept in peace until…..THUMP! THUMP! THUMP!
Inside the lab, Prof. Sycamore made a room for the three. It was upstairs. One wall was painted green, the other blue, the third one red, and the last one yellow. They each had a small bed with their marks on it like water droplets, leaves, embers.
Chespin woke up rubbing his eyes. He looked at his two friends sleeping and tried to go back to bed. As soon as he pulled the covers over his head, he heard something in the lab. THUMP! THUMP! THUMP! Chespin got out of bed again and went to investigate. The sound was coming from down the stairs. He saw moving shadows on the wall, they came closer. A hand reaches out and taps his shoulder.
"AHHHH" Chespin screamed.
The lights turned on and Froakie slapped him. Chespin continued screaming still.
"Snap out of it Chespin!" Froakie said slapping him even harder.
"Oww" Chespin said rubbing his cheek.
Fennekin was at the light switch staring at Chespin giving him a strange look. She headed down the stairs to the group.
"I was trying to sleep, do you really want a midnight snack?" Fennekin said yawning.
"There is something in the lab, I heard it" Chespin said.
Froakie and Fennekin exchanged looks. Chespin was their friend and they knew he wouldn't lie to them about something. They just sighed and mumbled "We believe you". Chespin led them down the stairs. It was quiet, a little too quiet. Suddenly, lighting zapped the ground causing the three to scream. Fennekin jumped in to Froakie's arms. Froakie slapped his hand over Chespin's mouth. Chespin's heart was racing. Suddenly, his adventurous side came to him. He felt great. He felt like he could to anything. He took one step and tripped on the carpet. Fennekin sighed.
"I think we should get some sleep, we can solve this in the morning" Fennekin said.
"I want to figure this out, something bad could be happening" Froakie said.
"I thought you didn't like adventures"
"Ever since a week ago, I said that I was going to train and we did stop those three people in the alley"
"Alright, I give, let's go explore"
They walked past the experiment rooms, the small kitchen, Prof. Sycamore's room and they finally found out where the sound was coming from. It was coming from the yard. They opened the door and walked outside. Raindrops fell on them as they shivered from the cold. Tree branches rustled in the wind. They couldn't find the noise, but they heard it. Behind them, a tree had a grim face. Its branches raised into the air. It got out of the ground, hands over the three Pokémon's heads. They turned around slowly. They all screamed in unison. The giant tree towered over them, it seemed angry that it had been woken up. It was a Trevenant! The Pokémon slammed them in to the fence. The three stood up, ready to fight back. Chespin used Pin-Missile, Froakie used Water Pulse and Fennekin used Ember. Their moves collided with each other causing Trevenant to crash backwards. Trevenant used Wood Hammer and the three fell to the ground in pain. They were weak but, they couldn't give up now. They launched their moves one last time and Trevenant collapsed to the ground. The three ran back into the lab and closed the door behind them. Panting and gasping for air, they stood there, at the door. They watched Trevenant plant itself in the ground and close its eyes. They climbed up the stairs and into bed. Soon, they were fast asleep.
The next morning, they went down the stairs happily, knowing that Trevenant was defeated. As they headed to the kitchen for breakfast, they see Prof. Sycamore outside in the yard. He was helping Trevenant get up. The Professor walked inside the door and looked at the three Pokémon. Arms crossed, he looked at the three.
"Do you know what happened to our guest, Trevenant?"
The three looked at each other before running off…..
