CHAPTER 4: EIEVUI

"What do you want?" Shuu yelled at the Abusoru which was once again having trouble standing up. It opened its mouth and started to form a Shadow Ball in its mouth.

Shuu scoffed, "Fine, if you want to play it that way." Shuu reached for another Pokéball and threw it calling out, "Abusoru!"

"Quick Attack!" Shuu yelled out before the Abusoru's Shadow Ball hit his. His Abusoru dodged the Shadow Ball and charged into the other Abusoru hitting it directly with a Quick Attack. The Abusoru fell back a few feet and struggled to get back up, only to fall back down.

Shuu sighed in relief. "One down, two to go." Shuu, with Akira in his arms, ran over to Haruka who was having trouble with the Hakuryu and Deribiru with just Agehanto.

"Abusoru, bite!" Shuu commanded, pointing at Hakuryu. Abusoru, with great speed, did just that and sunk its jaws into Hakuryu, making it shriek in pain.

"Shuu, how's Akira-san?" Haruka asked in concern.

"Daijoubu (She's okay)…" Shuu answered. "Haruka, you take care of Deribiru, I'll take Hakuryu."

"Hai (Yes)," Haruka complied with a nod. She turned toward the Deribiru, "Agehanto, String Shot!"

Dodging with ease, the Deribiru countered with a Smog attack. Haruka covered her mouth and tried to move away from the poisonous gas. She looked over and saw Agehanto choking on the smog.

Without thinking, she yelled out, "Agehanto!" Then quickly clasped her hand over her mouth, she started choking on the poison. 'I can't move…' Haruka cursed at herself while coughing.

Suddenly, a hand grabbed her out of the smog. She looked up and there was Shuu.

"Daijoubu (Are you okay), Haruka?"

"Hai (Yes)," Haruka gasped and almost ran back into the smog if Shuu hadn't stopped her. "Demo (But), Agehanto!"

"Just return her!" Shuu yelled at her.

"Oh, right…" Haruka sweat dropped, realizing she wasn't really thinking too straight. As she returned Agehanto, Hakuryu attacked again with Ice Beam. Shuu and Haruka both jumped out of the way, but Haruka started coughing again because of the smog in her lungs.

"Haruka, abunai (watch out)!" Shuu yelled out, seeing Hakuryu once again ready for another ice beam toward them. Unfortunately, Haruka couldn't move. Shuu's body moved on its own and before he realized he did something stupid, he was right in front of the Ice Beam and Haruka. Shuu closed his eyes, knowing very well what was coming next was not going to be comfortable.

Suddenly, the bushes besides them rustle. A flash of who-knows-what jumped in front of Shuu and used protect. Only catching a glimpse, Shuu couldn't identify exactly which Pokémon it was.

Hakuryu and Deribiru both stopped their attacks, looking quite surprised. After the…um…ice fog cleared up, Shuu saw an Eievui, except…

…it was white.

Haruka, who finally stopped coughing for the moment, looked up. Haruka smiled happily, "Wow! What an unusual color for an Eievui. Hey, Shuu…" She looked up at him only to see his eyes glued on the Eievui.

"Oi (Hey), Shuu, daijoubu (are you okay)…?" When he didn't answer, Haruka waved her hand in front of his face. "Ooooiiiii!"

Shuu finally snapped out of his trace. He walked slowly to the Eievui. The Eievui turned around and jumped up toward Shuu, who lost his balance from the sudden "attack." Once Shuu was on the floor, the Eievui started licking Shuu's face. Haruka just stood next to Shuu looking extremely confused.

"Hey, cut it out," Shuu said to the Eievui who actually compiled. Shuu smiled, "So it's really you, huh Silver…o hisashiburi, da ne (long time no see, huh)?"

"Vui!" Silver responded as if saying, "It sure has!"

"Etto (Umm), Shuu…?" Haruka questioned, hoping Shuu would get the hint that an explanation is needed.

"Ah, gomen (sorry) Haruka, this is Silver, Akira's friend ever since she was 5," Shuu explained.

"Eeh…hontou desu ka (is that so)…?" Haruka looked over at the smiling Silver. Then getting a bad feeling that something's behind her. Haruka gulped and turned around. All the Pokémon who had attacked her were behind her, glaring straight at Silver.

"What do you want?" Shuu asked callously glaring straight at them.

"Mou, daijoubu, minna (its okay, everyone)! Tomodachi da (they're my friends)!" Shuu and Haruka both froze in their place, surprised. Both looked at each other, conveying the same thought. 'Since when can an Eievui talk?!"

However, when they actually turned toward the silver fur ball, a young male human replaced his spot. He was wearing a silver ensemble. However, he had long silver ears on top of his head and a little fluffy tail on his bottom. He turned and smiled at Shuu and Haruka, who were both speechless.

"S-s-s-silver?! Since…WHEN…what…the hell…IS GOING ON?" Shuu yelled looking at Silver. Silver smiled shyly then put a hand up behind his head laughing nervously.

"Um…there was an…incident…anyways…" Silver turned toward them. "Minna, daijoubu (Everyone, it's okay)! This is Aki no Onii-san (Aki's older brother), Shuu-kun!" He pointed at Shuu. Shuu looked toward the group of Pokémon curiously.

"Are you sure, Silver?" a girl with long blue hair in a ponytail, a horn on her head, and a long tail who was the Hakuryu earlier asked with apprehension. Silver nodded and smiled.

"We can trust him."

"I don't," a deep voice cut in, which belonged to a guy with sharp eyes, a black and red ensemble, and two short black dog ears above his head, most likely the Deribiru.

"C'mon Kuroha," Silver pouted. "Have I ever been wrong about these things?" He put his hands on his hips. Kuroha shifted his eyes with doubt. Silver sweat dropped.

"Don't answer that…"

"Neh, Yuki, daijoubu (are you okay)?" the Hakuryu uncertainly put a hand on his shoulder. However, the Abusoru named Yuki, who turned human as well, just gave her a cold glare.

"Don't touch me, Ryu." The Hakuryu, Ryu, quickly withdrew her hand. Silver growled and put a protective hand in between Ryu and Yuki.

"Don't take your anger out on Ryu-chan just because you weren't guarding Aki-chan well enough," Silver glared down at Yuki. Yuki shot back a glare that would make anyone tremble, but Silver stood his ground.

Then, Haruka walked over to Yuki, who was still considerably unable to move from the Stun Spore. "I'm sorry about before…here." Haruka took out a Cheri Berry and gave it to Yuki. "It'll heal you."

Yuki glared at Haruka, but took the berry apprehensively.

"In any case, is Aki-chan okay?" Silver looked over at Shuu. Shuu looked down at his sleeping sister.

"I hope so." He turned his attention back to Silver and smirked, "But then again, you and I both know this probably isn't unusual."

Silver sighed and frowned, "That's what frightens me…"

Haruka turned toward Akira then brighten a little when she heard a slight moaning sound from her. "I think she's waking up!"

Everyone ran over to Akira, making sure not to crowd around her. Akira slowly opened her eyes and looked up seeing Haruka first.

"How are you feeling, Akira-san?" Haruka asked.

"Da re (Who are you)?" Then Akira shifted her glance around her and sees Shuu. She slowly got up then looked up at him. Her eyes widen in realization. "… 'nii-san (brother)?"

Shuu just smiled, "How are you feeling?"

"A little dizzy I guess…" then suddenly something jumped her.

"Thank goodness! I was so worried!!" Silver said hugging Akira, who was not too happy about the physical contact.

"Get off," Akira began shoving Silver off when she noticed he wasn't an Eievui anymore. "Why are you human?"

Then she looked back and noticed that Ryu, Kuroha, and Yuki were all human. "Why are you all human?"

"Umm…" Silver looked behind him at all the other Pokémon and continued, "'Cause it's easier to communicate and they'd find out anyways?"

Akira didn't seem too happy about the answer. She started getting up but fell back down remembering she wasn't in good shape.

"Aki, what happened to you?" Shuu asked finally. Suddenly, all the Pokemon looked at each other and then at Akira, who turned away from Shuu.

"Nothing," Akira used a tree for support and somehow managed to get up without hurting herself.

"Besides…I'm surprise you came to look for me," the girl spat out with ice. Shuu glared at the girl.

"Excuse me? For your information, I've been looking for you for days, wandering around aimlessly with NO lead, and I missed a contest because of you!" Shuu yelled at the annoying girl.

"Well…sorry if I'm less important than your precious li'l contests!" Akira yelled back in equal annoyance.

"News flash, you're not the only one living on this planet! Don't be so selfish! Is it my fault that I actually have other things to do than stalking you like a hawk to make sure you don't get into trouble?" Shuu retorted. Akira growled.

"LIKE YOU EVEN CARE!"

Shuu jumped at the statement. He felt as though a large spear had been rammed right through his intestines. Akira glared right at his shaken emerald pools. Without another word, she turned to leave.

Haruka looked over at Shuu with worried eyes. Turning her attention to Akira, she saw the girl suddenly falling forward mostly likely due to the fact that the argument that strained her wounds open again.

"Akira-sa-" But before she could even finish her sentence, Haruka closed her eyes as a gust of wind suddenly blew from behind her toward Akira. When she opened her eyes again, the Abusoru, Yuki, had caught Akira before she fell flat on her face.

Akira looked up at Yuki with weary eyes. "Yuk-" Akira started only to be overtaken by sleep and falling limp into the tall male's arms. Yuki looked at Akira with his apathetic eyes.

After turning his attention to Shuu, he warned, "Don't come near Akira again or I'll kill you."

"Yuki! Apologize to Shuu-kun! You're not being fair to hi…chotto (wait)! Yuki!" berated Silver, only to have the Abusoru sprinting off with the unconscious girl in his arms.

"Silver-kun, we need to follow him," Ryu stated while Kuroha left without a word as well. The Eievui sighed in exasperation, and then looked over at the dejected brother with sad eyes.

"Gomen ne (Sorry) Shuu-kun…demo (but), Aki-chan doesn't really hate you, I promise. She's just really confused right now. Ja ne, mata. (Bye, see you,)" Silver reassured and with that said, left as well.

"Shuu! Are you really going to let him take your sister like that? Shuu, are you listening?" Haruka desperately yelled trying to get the boy's attention. However, his eyes were emotionless and empty.

"Shuu…Shuu…SHUU!" Haruka yelled even more desperately, but Shuu just stood there, still playing the heart-crushing scene before his eyes.
