Chapter Four

Let's Go!

I breathe in deeply and look down at the path beneath our feet. I suddenly notice something, and turn to Izzy. "Hey Izzy, don't you think it's strange we haven't run into any pokemon yet? I mean seriously, we've been out here a while." What I said was true. It was nearly lunchtime. We had left home about 2 to 3 hours before. Izzy shrugged and kept walking. I was holding Eve tightly in my arms because apparently she didn't like to walk much. Eve suddenly perked her ears, and lept out of my arms, running into the woods. "Eve come back!" I chase after her with Izzy and Skitts close behind me. I look at Izzy hopelessly, "We'll never find her in these woods. She could be anywhere." Izzy smiles reassuringly, "Don't worry Molly we'll find her I promise. Maybe Skitts can find her." Izzy bends down and starts talking to Skitts quietly, and when she stands up Skitts starts looking around then runs off into the forest. "Hurry Molly or we'll lose her!" Izzy calls back to me and runs off into the forest. I quickly follow and then I stop. There are two ways to go through the forest, a right path, and a left path. Izzy was nowhere in sight. I sat down quietly and began to cry. I sit there for what seems like forever when I the soft bark of Eve. I look around and I see Eve limping towards me. "Eve are you ok?" I pick her up and she starts to whimper quietly. "Oh, Eve what happened?" Eve looks up at me and I notice her eyes are filled with pain. "Have her eat this," a kind voice said.
