A/N: Thanks to anyone who has read this story so far. Someone had pointed out to me that this story seems kind of dark, something I didn't really realize. And so, I apologize right now since this chapter is kind of dark too. But I do promise that it will get better as the last few chapters get out.
Glaceon opened his eyes slightly as he watched yet another Pokemon become a prisoner in Team Galactic clutches. Blinking the sleep out of his eyes, the ice Pokemon recognized the new Pokemon to be a Dragonite. Glaceon tilted his head slightly as he watched the struggle with hopeless eyes. The dragon Pokemon looked as though he were injured, and severely at that. Its wing was bent in an awkward position and blood caked its entire upper body.
"Come on you guys! How many grunts does it take to get one Dragonite into a cage?" one of the grunts shouted.
The grunts pushed even harder to force the Dragonite into the cage until it fell inside of its prison. Quickly, the grunts closed and locked the cage before looking at their newest prize. The Dragonite banged on the cage door angrily, roaring every so often. The grunts just laughed at the dragon before walking out of the room. The door slammed loudly behind them, causing some of the other captured Pokemon in the room to jump.
Glaceon sighed and laid his head back down. He had been trapped in the room for a little over a month now. His trainer had released him a few months ago after they had met Leafoen. Overjoyed at the chance to reunite with the grass Pokemon, the cub set out to Eterna Forest. But for some reason, Team Galactic had come back. And unfortunately, they captured him, which was why he was currently stuck in a cage at Team Galactic's headquarters.
A sigh bubbled out of his chest. He missed Leafeon. The cub wished that he could be next to the grumpy grass Pokemon right about now. While Leafeon did have issues when it came to expressing his feelings, Glaceon could tell that the man generally cared for him very deeply.
The sound of shouts broke Glaceon out of his thoughts. The cub lifted his head up and watched as the door opened yet again. A few grunts walked in carrying a Pokemon. But unlike the Dragonite, this Pokemon wasn't fighting back at all.
The grunts came up to Glaceon's cage, causing the cub to back up cautiously. His cage door opened and the Pokemon was shoved inside before the door was shut again. Glaceon was forced to the back of the cage and he whimpered softly. The cage was already kind of small without the other Pokemon inside, and now it felt even smaller.
Silence floated around the room. Glaceon lifted his head slowly and inspected room. The grunts had left without a loud commotion, which was rare nowadays. The ice Pokemon then turned his attention to look at the other Pokemon beside him. His eyes widened as he took in the condition of the other occupant. Its hind leg was covered in dry blood, although it looked like the wound had reopened after being shoved in the cage. There was a large purple and black bruise on the Pokemon's back, more than likely due to some kind of poison.
Whimpering in worry, Glaceon scooted towards the bars of the cage. He looked around the room before finding the Pokemon that he needed.
"Chansey! Chansey!" Glaceon whispered loudly.
Across the room, Chansey looked up in mild confusion. She stared into space for a few seconds before turning her head towards the sound. She looked up at Glaceon and smiled brightly.
"Glaceon! How are you today? She asked sweetly.
Glaceon shook his paw, waving off her question. "There's no time to talk right now. There's a Pokemon in here with me that looks to be in pretty bad condition. Can you heal him?"
Chansey tilted her head in confusion before nodding her head. "Of course I can, silly. Just wake up Alakazam so that he can teleport my healing powers to you."
Glaceon nodded in understanding before he looked towards the other side of the room. "Alakazam, are you awake?"
Alakazam slowly opened his eyes and halted his meditation. "Yes cub. What is it?"
"Do you think that you could open two portals so that Chansey can use her healing ability on the Pokemon in my cage?"
Alakazam nodded his head once before closing his eyes again. The spoons in his hand started to glow faintly before the light grew brighter. A soft buzzing noise started to sound in the background and a few seconds later, the noise doubled.
Glaceon looked around his cage before he spotted a portal right above him. He turned his attention back to Chansey and gave her the signal. Chansey smiled brightly before focusing her energy. A bright light started to surround her before she shot her hands up, sending her healing powers through the portal. Glaceon kept his eyes on the portal, sighing in relief as a small ball of energy came through. The energy enveloped the wounded Pokemon.
The Pokemon's wounds healed quickly. The large purple bruise disappeared as if it wasn't even there. The blood caking its fur vanished without a trace, leaving behind a healthy glow.
Chansey's healing power disappeared after a few seconds. Glaceon watched cautiously as the Pokemon remained unconscious. A pit of fear fell into the ice Pokemon's stomach. Swallowing deeply, Glaceon looked back at Alakazam.
"Why isn't he waking up?" the cub asked in worry.
Alakazam opened his eyes slowly, relinquishing his hold on the portals. The psychic Pokemon observed Glaceon's cage closely before humming in curiosity.
"This is most peculiar. It seems as though there is a connection between you two that needs to be reawakened," Alakazam said cryptically.
Glaceon tilted his head in confusion before looking down at the other Pokemon. He bent down and sniffed at the Pokemon's coat, reveling in the sweet smell that wafted up. He faintly recognized the scent, but he could think of it. The cub decided to see if he could recognize the Pokemon by looking at its face. Slipping around the Pokemon carefully, Glaceon peeked down at the Pokemon's face only to gasp.
"Leafeon?"
A/N: And there's my horrible excuse for a cliffhanger. Hopefully, the next chapter will make up for it though.
