"Careful!" shouted Wildfire, Eevee's fennekin, as she balanced herself on the log.
"You don't need to be so loud, you know!" Eevee scoffed at the Pokémon on her right shoulder. On her left perched a flechling. His name was Phoenix and though he could fly, he dared not move.
"One slip and you can fall," Phoenix warned in that all-knowing voice. Eevee rolled her eyes.
"I am so terrified," she snorted as she placed another foot on the slippery log. Below was a rushing river. Deadly rocks lined the surface.
"Why are we doing this again?" said a voice on her head. Ultrasonic the noibat was leaning curiously over her head.
"Because Aura said she couldn't," Wildfire explained. Eevee placed another foot, it slipped almost making her loose her balance, but she held tight. The Amaura faced the other side, her tail flicking anxiously.
"I seriously wonder how she even got there…" Ultrasonic muttered. "Just look at her size!"
"I heard that!" Aura shouted from the other end, the rushing water slightly clouding her voice.
"It was meant for you to hear," Wildfire smirked.
"Hey, I am sort of busy here, can you guys cool it a little?" Eevee muttered.
"Oh yeah, sorry!" Phoenix chirped. Everything stilled as Eevee continued toward the other end. Finally she managed to get to the other end, hoping out of the log.
"See? I can do it," Eevee sniffed toward Aura who stood dumbfounded looking at her.
"And she did it with all of us on her," Wildfire smirked. Aura turned her head toward the sky and sniffed.
"She must have cheated," Aura growled.
"I did nothing of the sort!" Eevee shot back, crossing her arms.
"Please," Aura snorted. "A human crossing that?" The ice, ground Pokémon quickly tried to catch her mistake. Eevee clenched her jaw.
"Well I am sorry I am not like you," she shouted and sat down near a tree.
"She didn't mean that," Wildfire said softly giving a glare toward Aura.
Ultrasonic and Phoenix took off, gliding to a berry patch close to them.
"I'm so sorry, I didn't mean to hurt your feelings," Aura explained.
"It is done now," Eevee sighed, looking at her friend.
"I am just surprise something other then a Pokémon can accomplish that…" She sniffled.
Eevee froze, got up suddenly and leaned down to look at the river rushing. It had been dangerous, too dangerous.
"Oh no…" she muttered snapping around. "If Yveltal finds out I crossed this… You're going to be in so much trouble! Quick!"
Ultrasonic and Phoenix returned, both carrying Oran berries.
"Here," they both said cheerfully. They handed Eevee the blue berries.
"No time. We need to cross the log." The soft muffled beating of wings cut off Eevee.
"Too late," Wildfire moaned, digging his face inside the side on my cheek. The air suddenly turned icy, and the earth quaked softly as Yveltal landed. He inclined his head toward Eevee, looking down in surprise.
"I thought I told you not to cross," he said in a soft voice. It was not full of malice, but of worry. "You could have fallen." Eevee shuffled her feet, looking at her Pokémon. Yveltal paused and turned to glare at them.
"None of you by any chance got her to cross it?" he asked, this time his voice was tainted slightly with distaste. Aura shuffled awkwardly not meeting his blue gaze.
"It was me sir," Aura murmured. Eevee could tell she was ready to faint. Yveltal narrowed his eyes, looking directly into the ice types face. Aura shuddered.
"May I ask why you influenced her to go across the river?" he inquired with a hint of warning. Eevee shook her head, turning toward Aura.
"It's my fault, I am the one to blame," Eevee said. Yveltal looked at her and sighed.
"It is obvious who did it. Yet only for today I feel to forgive you, Amaura." Aura sighed in relief, which got a glare from the gigantic red Pokémon.
"Thank… Thank you sir," she stammered. Phoenix landed on her shoulder, and Ultrasonic on her head. Eevee smiled at Aura enthusiastically. She nodded and smiled back. Yveltal let out another sigh, the cold draft carrying into the wind.
"Let me get you home," he said warmly, crouching down to allow me to climb onto his back. Being his size, it was hard to get on, so as he had to lift me by the claw of his wing. She mounted his back, alongside of Wildfire and Phoenix. Usually Aura had to walk all the way home. Eevee disagreed with that, but it seemed Yveltal disliked the small Pokémon for unknown reasons. It surprised Eevee he even let her off like that, but it also allowed relief to sink into her shoulders. Ultrasonic lifted from her head and landed on that of Aura's. "I'll meet you guys home, eh?" he chuckled and Aura nodded. I waved to them as Yveltal ducked down and darted into the air.
The wind whistled past my air as the legendary veered toward the mountainside cavern. The breeze was somewhat chilled being that the destruction legendary was below them, but Eevee of course didn't mind.
"When do you think I'll evolve?" Wildfire questioned excitedly toward Phoenix. The Fletchling shrugged.
"Maybe you'll never evolve," Phoenix joked. Wildfire snorted in distaste.
"You and your jokes," he muttered. Phoenix flapped his wings once making Eevee sneeze as one passed through her nose.
"Hey!" she exclaimed, her gaze still fixed on the ground below.
"My bad," Phoenix muttered casting an amused look toward Wildfire. The Fennekin regarded him, laughter twinkling in his eyes.
When they landed, Yveltal told them to eat then rest, even though it was still sunset. Eevee sat down on the cold gravel; her eyes gleamed as she picked up one of the Oran berries Phoenix and Ultrasonic had presented her.
"When do you think they will be back?" Eevee asked, taking a bite out of the berry.
"Maybe by moon-high," Wildfire suggested, his Pecha berry lying half eaten on the ground. He took another bite out of it, thinking thoughtfully.
"Their not that slow!" Phoenix pointed out resting a talon on his Oran berry. He cherished the blue fruit, though he preferred meat even though he rarely had it. Eevee nodded, skeptically examining her Oran berry.
Wildfire paused, his gaze hypnotized toward the entrance. He perked his orange fur lined ears and listened.
"What is it?" Eevee asked curiously, yet somehow she had a bad feeling. Wildfire took his time answering; his gaze had been fixed toward the entrance. His ears twitched and he got up.
"Where is Yveltal?" he asked.
"Gone out to find something," Phoenix said. Wildfire cocked his head to one side then to another.
"How long will he stay out?" He asked.
"Um…" Eevee looked at him interested. "About thirty minutes. He dislikes leaving us alone for long."
"More like you," Phoenix said grinning. Eevee rolled her eyes at him, her attention drawn back to Wildfire. He tilted his head once more and said, "Then I think we have time to save a human."
