The Strength of an Eevee
Chapter 6 Got to get home
I woke up the next morning by water being sprayed at me. I quickly got up and tried to find who sprayed me. It was a buizel using water gun from the pond as a joke. When it was done spraying me it laughed really hard and went underwater. I shook the water off and went to get some berries.
As I was eating I felt one of the eevee's jump on my back. "How did you get here anyway?" She asked as another eevee came over and sat beside me. "Yeah, and what are you going to do when you leave?" And then one more eevee came over and curled up next to me. "Where's your mommy and daddy?". I didn't really want to talk about it but they were just so cute while waiting for an answer, plus I didn't really have a reason not to tell them. "Well, uh I was taken here by Chompers, I'm gonna go home after this, and my mom and dad are at home" I decided to spare them from the long story of what has happened in this past weak. "where's your home?" The one on top of me asked. "uh, I um d-don't know." I said thinking about where it could be. "Well how are you gonna get home if you don't know where it is" the eevee sitting next to me asked. How will I find my way home? I'm gonna be lost forever aren't I. I started thinking about it until I noticed they were getting worried about me, I guess I didn't talk for a while. No, you know what. Nothings gonna stop me from getting home and I mean nothing. "I'm gonna find my home, I'm gonna find my family, no matter where it is." I said as I stood up still with the smaller eevee on my back. "So are you gwonna go find home now?" One of the ones next to me asked, "Yeah, I'm gonna go find them." I crouched down and she got off then I said good by to all the pokemon I met there. I hugged the eevee's good bye, drank a lot of water, grabbed a berry, and ran off into the sand.
I forgot how hard it was to see in the sand so I just kinda started walking. I kept walking and made sure not to run or else I'll get tired and thirsty quicker. I kept the berry in my mouth while I carried it. I heard noises at some parts so I'm staying away from those places just in case it's a trainer or hunter. Eventually I got too thirsty and hungry that I had to eat the berry, It was a really juicy one, thank goodness.
I had been walking for a while when I found it, it was like a path. I knew it might lead me to water or something, I was really thirsty again by that point. I started following the path for a while until it lead to a hill with a rail on it. I rolled down the hard hill because- well- It's a hill what do you want me to do, not roll down it? After the hill the path lead to a big, tunnel, building thing. It was as big as the poke-prison but it was also a tunnle. My home could be on the other side of this so I decided to risk it and walk through it. It seemed fine, nothing bad is happening to me so I guess it's safe.
I got to the other side but when I looked at everything I realized I wasn't near the forest. The place I was in matched Arrows description of a city. There were giant buildings, cars, lights, and worst of all people. There were so many humans here, big, little, and tiny but they were all scary. I would've ran back to the desert but a trainer was coming from that way.
"I'M TRAPPED!" I screamed as I ran, trying to stay away from all humans. I was running for my life and making sure I wasn't near any people. As I ran people would look at me and a couple little kids tried to grab me. I just kept running, I don't like people and I want to get home. After a while I realized that I was going in a big circle, I tried to go to the middle but there were even more people there so I ran in a different way. I kept running until I felt a tug on my neck, I looked up at who grabbed me.. A human! Before I could get away they tied a rope around my neck, "Don't worry little eevee, you're safe now." No I'm not! I made a run for it and ripped the rope out of her hand, I ran and ran until I knew I was safe. I climbed a tree and jumped towards the ground but I was suddenly yanked back. I looked back and saw that the rope got caught on a tree branch, "No, no, no, NO! This can't be happening!" I yanked, squirmed, tugged, and bit the rope but I never got loose. I kept pulling until I was suddenly picked up, I looked back and there was a man holding me, he took the rope off my neck and started walking toward a truck. I started kicking and squirming, trying to get away, "Don't worry little eevee, were just going to the pound, I promise I'll find you a nice home." Oh heck no! I quickly flung my neck up and bit his hand hard, he dropped me and I made a run for it.
After running for what felt like forever I finally found the tunnel building thing that I came from before. I quickly ran through it but when I got to the other side there wasn't any sand. There was grass and trees and berries, "Wow, this is way better than the dessert" I said to myself. I knew I should keep going if I wanted to make it home but I was so hot and tired from the desert and running around that city. I found a tree and ate some juicy berry's and then fell asleep in the shade on a rock.
I fell asleep minuets after laying down and stayed there for a while. When I woke up the sun was almost down, it was getting cool but not too cold. I got up and went to find a pond or something but I forgot I was on a rock. When I took a step I fell of and hurt my paw when I hit the ground. I groaned and got up and kept going to find a pond.
After a couple minuets of looking I found a pond behind some trees. I knew it was there because I got splashed by a playful Lotad. After a nice long drink I decided to explore a little, if I can't go home right now then I might as well have fun and explore.
I found a couple pokemon, some more berry trees, a couple dens, and a few trainers but I didn't go near them. I went back to the first tree I fell asleep by and climbed it, I was still tired from all the running so I was gonna go back to sleep until I heard something. I looked down and there was a trainer, a smaller one but still a trainer. I jumped out of the tree over him and ran into the forest, I kept running until I saw a dedenne. It had been a while since I've had meat, it looked good, I'm not much of a killer though... crap, it looked good though. I snuck up behind it and used quick attack, I chased it for a while before I bit its tail and picked it up. I was about to eat it but then it thunder shocked me, "OW!" I yelped and let go of it and watched it run off. I turned around and started walking.
After a few minutes I head some kids playing, maybe I could play with them, I really wanna play something. I climbed a tree and looked at the kids... oh my stars! It was Cooper and he was with his family again! It wasn't too late at night so he was still awake playing with his sister he told me about. He looked so happy, I just kinda watched him play for a while. I wanna say hi but I don't want to interrupt his fun so I just stayed in the tree.
I realized that if his mom saw me she might attack for watching her children so I decided to come back tomorrow. I was about to leave when I heard something. I turned to look at them, they were still playing but I thought I saw something. From the tree I could see behind the bushes that they were playing in front of. There was a Poochyena watching them from the bushes along with a trainer. The trainer had a pokeball in his hand and the Poochyena looked like he was about attack. I know for a fact that poochyena's fur stick up when they get ready to attack and are really hard to beat, Coop's gonna get caught! I couldn't let my friend to get caught again, I have to do something! Not thinking about the pain I jumped out of the tree right as the poochyena jumped out to attack. I landed right on top of the poochyena as the trainer came out of hiding. I got up and ran in front of Cooper ready to defend him. He looked me over and realized what was going on, "Scout!" he said in fear. I growled at the poochyena as it started to got up, it growled at me as it struggled to get up. I looked at the trainer, He was tall and had brown hair, he looked like he was gonna catch one of us, and it wasn't about to be Cooper. "COOPER COME ON!" I heard his sister yell, she was already running. "Scout" Cooper said sadly. I turned to look at him, "Cooper run" I said to him,"I got this". He looked at me in a way that made me feel really bad, he had tears forming in his eyes. He closed his eyes and nodded, He ran after his sister just in time, Poochyena got up and was ready for battle.
"Pocky use crunch!" the man yelled. The poochyena or Pocky used crunch, he came charging at me. I moved out of the way and used hidden power on him. I would run but I had to give Cooper time to run, I'll fight until I know he's safe. I used quick attack on him but before I hit him he used dig. I ran to a tree so he couldn't get me, he jumped out of the ground and used roar on me. I fell out of the tree and hit the ground, I quickly got up and used hidden power on him. He jumped over my hidden power and used crunch on me. I yelped in pain as he used crunch on me over and over again. I used quick attack to get away and used swift. The swift hit him and gave me time to run, I bolted off but was stopped by the trainer. "Not so fast Eevee." he said, I turned and ran away but was hit by a take down. I struggled to get away from Pocky but he held me down so I couldn't move. I saw the trainer walk over and I panicked, I used hidden power on him but he used crunch so he wouldn't be blasted back. I struggled and squirmed to be free but he didn't let go, I had one more idea. I turned and used hidden power on the trainer, Poochyena ran to him but was to late. The trainer was blasted back, I took this chance to run away.
I was running away but I didn't get very far before anger filled poochyena and I was attacked with even more power than before. I was blasted back with a powerful force and a bright light. I looked back at him as fear took over my body. There in front of me was a big, strong, terrifying, angry, Mightyena. I didn't know what to do, I was too scared to move or attack. I just looked as it as it realized what happened. I could finally move when it came charging towards me, I got up and ran as fast as I could. It didn't take long for him to catch me, it first attacked with a sucker punch. I was knocked into a tree and fell to the ground, I looked and he was gone. Then I felt something under me, I was blasted into the air after he used dig. I felt like I did after my fight with Manectric, weak, tired, in pain, and panicked. The last thing I saw was a red and white ball being pressed against my forehead. I fainted in the ball feeling bad, not only was I never gonna get home but now I have a trainer. I curled up in the ball trying to rest up for what was to come.
