Hello everyone, shieldliger here. I have to say that this was an awesome chapter to write. I'm sorry for the pun I used in this chapter. I really couldn't resist. I really hope you guys like this chapter, as much as I liked writing it. On with the story!

Rayrudan: I actually do have a sister. And I did vent a few things about her into this character. She is twelve, I think. Don't judge me because I have three brothers and three sisters. Their ages are 4 through 13 years old with me being the oldest at 16.

Phillip Harbindinger: I actually came up with Caleb because I liked the name. When I got to thinking about it yesterday, I just realized that my baby cousin was named Caleb lol. No wonder I liked the name haha.

November Red Angel: Yes I just had to add the puppy dog eyes. If it was a move, it would be super effective against all Pokémon.

Greater love hath no man than this, that a man lay down his life for his friend.

Chapter 6

Katlyn's POV

"This is so embarrassing." I said as I looked in the mirror. I was wearing a dark blue t-shirt and a pair of khaki cargo shorts that had enough pockets that you could lose something and not find it for ten years. I had Caleb's Pokeball belt around my waist. I had an old baseball cap on with my brown hair pulled through the back of it in a ponytail. I had a pair of steel-toed hiking boots on with regular white shoe socks underneath. To completely the barely wearable outfit, I had an old camo army jacket that our dad gave Caleb when he turned ten.

"Look, it may not be the best looking outfit in the world but it's what you can wear that you won't care about if it gets dirty." Caleb said as he slowly walked towards the mirror. The look on his face, when he stared into the mirror, seemed to be a mix of acceptance and sadness. "You know, when I first found out what had happened to me I was trying to tell myself that this was just like the time Maggie turned me into an Eevee but it's not, is it?" he asked as I looked down at him.

"No Caleb, it's not." I confirmed. We looked into the mirror again. "I guess that means that we have a long trip head of us. I have a feeling that it's going to be a lot harder then either of us are expecting." I said in a soft tone. We sat there staring at ourselves in the mirror for a few more minutes before I heard a knock on the door. I got up to answer it. "Lawrence! Why are you here? In fact, why are you disguised as my brother again so soon? We aren't leaving for another hour." I questioned as Lawrence pushed his way into the room.

"I have a present to give Caleb. I figured that since I had a few hours to myself then I would get a few things before we leave." He said as he pulled out a black leather case with a gold latch on the front. Lawrence flicked the latch up and opened the lid. He knelt down on one knee and offered the contents to Caleb. I looked inside the case the same time that Caleb did. Inside was a dull gray boulder badge. "I wanted you to have this. It is so you will always remember that, you and I will make it to the league. No matter what the shape or form you have; someday we will make it there." He said in a resolute tone.

"Where did you get that? You didn't beat Brock did you?" Caleb asked with tears in his eyes.

"Aunt Ember and I decided to take him on. I disguised myself as you and we took the challenge. Since there are no restrictions, on what Pokémon you can use Aunt Ember volunteered for the battle. She took out Brock's Geodude in only one hit from her Extrasensory attack. The Geodude rolled away and passed out because of the spinning. Brock's second Pokémon was a Pokémon I haven't seen before called a Gigalith. It was big, but Aunt Ember was able to confuse it, then she hit it with an Iron Tail to the face. It went down as fast as a rock in water." Lawrence said excitedly. Caleb went up to his friend and nuzzled him.

"I really hate to break this touching moment but how about we leave a little early? If we leave right now, we can get to Viridian City by nightfall." I said as I picked up the backpack I had bought. Both Caleb and Lawrence glared at me in return, but they both decided to follow me outside.

We walked a little ways to the lobby where my mom stood waiting. She ran up to me and hugged me as hard as she could.

"I knew you would try to sneak out. You are just like Caleb when he first left, or did he talk you into leaving early?" she asked as she broke the embrace. I shrugged and pointed back at Lawrence.

"I hope you have fun, and be sure to be safe. Call whenever you get a chance, and whatever you do, do not forget to have at least one Pokémon on you at all times. I love you very much." She said as she began to tear up. I assured her that I would do as she said. She then turned to Lawrence and gave him a hug. "Lawrence, you be sure to keep Caleb safe, and be sure you take care of yourself." She said with a shy smile.

"Did my mom tell you?" he asked in surprise.

"I listened to my daughter's voice recording. I had a hard time believing it at first, but after reviewing how you acted at the restaurant, I knew it was true." She replied. "And Caleb? Be sure to keep your sister out of trouble. And make sure that you will come back to me, I don't care what species you are, you are my son and I will always love you." She said as she knelt down and kissed him on the head. Caleb began to cry and my mom began to hold him and shush him.

"We better get going if we are going to try to get there before nightfall." Lawrence said. I took the lead and we left the hotel.

"I hope she will be alright." I said as we reached the edge of town. The sun had barely reached noon and it was very bright, but it felt like it was the darkest day of my life.

"She will be fine; I just hope that she really believes that Caleb is going to help his sister. We better get going or we may never get there before dark. Aunt Ember, could you change me back now?" he asked. He was suddenly engulfed in a blue light. Within seconds, Lawrence reverted to his original form. We quickly placed the clothes into my bag, and then continued our walk to Viridian City.

We spent nearly three hours walking before we stopped for a break. I pulled out a PB and J and some chips, then gave Lawrence and Ember some dry Pokechow and a few berries. I pulled out a package of new feeding bottles and filled it with formula and water. After shaking the bottle thoroughly, I reached for Caleb. He jumped back with more ease then I had ever seen him possess.

"I absolutely refuse to be fed by a bottle. I am sixteen years old, and to be fed like that is absolutely humiliating." He said defiantly.

"You are going to have to eat sometime. You know better then anybody that you have to eat, especially now that you can't have normal food yet." Lawrence said as he pushed his friend toward me.

"I wouldn't need to eat like this if Ember hadn't of changed me back. It's her fault that any of this is happening." He yelled angrily. I looked at Ember to see that she had a gloomy look on her face.

"I had to change you back. When you were explaining what had happened to you to Maggie and Katlyn, I was visited by the same Mew that cursed you. It told me that if I continued to interfere with your punishment, that it would be forced to kill you and your family. The Mew gave me five minutes to reverse my curse before he decided to level the entire building. My timing wasn't planned at all. I had no way of knowing that your sister was in there, I promise." She confessed. She began to cry softly and I placed the bottle on the ground and sat next to the large fox in order to comfort her. After several minutes, I was able to calm her down.

"Hey guys? Where is Caleb at?" Lawrence asked. I looked up to see that Caleb had completely disappeared.

"Caleb! Where are you?" I shouted into the woods. I felt a wave of dread crash over me. I grabbed a can of mace I had placed into the bag and began to run into the forest. Lawrence and Ember followed close behind me.

Caleb's POV

I ran as fast as I could with tears streaming uncontrollably from my face. I didn't care where I was going. I just told my legs to keep moving forward. I suddenly found myself in a deserted clearing surrounded by trees on all sides. I felt totally alone and vulnerable.

'This is what I get for running off like that.' I thought as I slowly looked around for any signs of life. The entire clearing was void of any life. There wasn't a single bird chirping or a bug buzzing. Then I heard a twig snap.

"Who's there? Show your self!" I said with a trembling voice.

"If you insssist." A voice hissed as it approached me. Standing in front of me was a gigantic Arbok. Its smooth scaly body extended and contracted as it slithered towards me.

"Normally I wouldn't ssshow myssself to my food before I eat them, but sssince you asssked nicely I thought I'd make an exception." The snake explained as it quickened its pace. I tried to will my legs to move, but they were paralyzed with fear. I closed my eyes and waited for the end to come to me. I could hear the snake coil then spring through the air. I waited, but all I heard was a loud thunk. I opened my left eye to see the snake had landed directly in front.

"Who did that? When I get my tail around whoever did that he isss going to die!" the snake hissed in fury. The large reptile began to scan the area for his attacker. I decided that now would be a good time to get away and began to sneak away.

"Where do you think you are going? You are going to be my desssert after I catch the rotten chump who decided to interrupt my sssnack." The snake said as he cut off my escape route. While the snake was focused on me, I saw a yellow and white blur smash into the back of the snake's head. The snake turned around, and again the yellow and white creature smacked the back of the snack. "Ssshow yourssself you coward!" the snake hissed angrily. The yellow and white creature dropped right in front of us. Though the Arbok blocked most of my view, I could tell from what was visible that it had to be a Jolteon. "Now I will crusssh you." It hissed. The snake lunged at the Jolteon. Suddenly there was a bright light. A large Thunderbolt flew into the Arbok. The strike caused the air to fill with the smell of ozone. The snake started to have severe muscle spasms the electricity passed through it and into the ground. The snake collapsed into a twitching heap. To my surprise, the snake was still breathing, but it was self evident that it would not be getting back up for awhile. I still couldn't see the Jolteon's face because he had turned away from me.

"Thank you for rescuing me." I said. The Jolteon didn't say a word. I slowly walked up to him, but he only tried to turn further away. As I got closer to the creature, I began to notice scars all along his body. Some of the scars were jagged, but there were places that seemed to have been sliced away with a scalpel. The scars were just too clean to be anything else. I gave one final try to see his face. It nearly took my breath away when I looked. The Jolteon's left eye was brilliant purple; the right eye was a clouded white eye. Over his good eye, the Jolteon had a massive scar that started over the right side of his left eye then curved over and down the left side of his face, giving him a slight zombie-like appearance. The Jolteon began to walk away when I called out to him.

"Don't go! I don't know where my family is!" I yelled. The Jolteon stopped in his tracks. He gave me a look that seemed to ask if I was scared of him. I smiled at him despite being scared of his appearance. Despite his appearance, I could sense that he wasn't an unkind type. "I'm not scared of you. If you were bad, you would have let that Arbok eat me." I said. The Jolteon smiled then began to sniff the ground. He signaled me to follow him, which I immediately obeyed. Suddenly the Jolteon tackled me to the ground. Lying on my back, I looked up to see that the Jolteon wasn't trying to attack me, but was shielding me from a now conscious Arbok. The Arbok sank its fangs deeply into the scarred Jolteon, pumping poison into the smaller fox.

"Kindnessss, isssn't tolerated here in the foressst." The Snake hissed. The Jolteon was starting to feel the effects of the poison as he sagged lower to the ground. Suddenly, I heard a loud crunching in the brush, and two pillars of fire flew through the woods. The two lines of flame engulfed the Arbok completely. I looked over at the source to see that Ember, Lawrence, and Katlyn had rushed onto the scene. When the flames had died down, I noticed that the Arbok was unconscious, but it had not withdrawn its fangs from the Jolteon.

"Throw the ball at the Jolteon!" I yelled in panic. Katlyn had reached down to my Pokeball belt and plucked off the only Pokeball on it. She enlarged the ball to its full size then threw it like a baseball. It sailed through the air, and missed the Jolteon by a hair. It did hit the Arbok, and sucked it in with its red beam. The Pokeball shook once, twice, then three times before clicking shut. "Katlyn! You completely missed him!" I yelled furiously.

"I'm sorry, I have never done this before!" she yelled back nearly in tears.

"Quick, we need to get him to the Pokémon center! Katlyn, you also need to get the antidotes out of the bag. They will help, but that Arbok pumped too much poison into him for them to heal him!" I yelled. Katlyn nodded before digging into the bag. She placed all of the antidotes on the ground and began to pour them on the wounds. After she had finished, she took off her army jacket and rapped it around the Jolteon's body. Without saying a word, Katlyn picked up the ball then snapped it to the belt. She then picked up the Jolteon, and we began to run to the center.

Ok so the credit for the Jolteon goes to Rayrudan. He sent me the OC will I was still writing Two Brothers. I told him that I wouldn't be able to use him in that particular story, but that I could use him for OMAA. Before anyone asks, I will not take anymore OC at this exact moment, but I may ask for one later on in the story. Now that that is out of the way, I do have a question for ya'll. How would ya'll feel if Katlyn had something bad happen to her? After all, this story is called One Misadventure After Another. I have a few ideas of how to do it and what I want to happen, but I would like your input. Leave your input in the reviews or pm me. Also if you want you can send me some ideas on what can happen to her, as long as it's fairly reasonable. As usual, be sure to leave a review if you have anything to say, and favorite/follow if you are enjoying the story. This is shieldliger001, signing off.
