Chapter 7

"Duck! Dodge! Now, attack! No, attack!"

I launched myself into battle once more, firing a flamethrower at the nearby Zubat, knocking it out instantly. Quickly rolling to the side to dodge an oncoming Supersonic from another nearby bat, I tried to push Bidoof to use at least one attack to help me out a little. We had entered a monster house, of all things, right when we had finished a big fight. I could feel my legs starting to give out already, and Bidoof was looking tired himself. But I had done most of the fighting. I was trying to coax him to use something, but he wouldn't budge from his state of cowering. "Come on! Do something!"

"Uh.. Uh…"

I tried hard not to take out my frustration too hard on the poor sap that was my opponent. Don't get me wrong, I loved the guy, but Bidoof could not fight to save his life. No way. Tensely, I glanced around at my enemies. Weird, they were all Zubat and Golbat for some odd reason..

Out of the corner of my eye, I saw Bidoof finally make a move. He lunged at one of the Golbats, starting to use a Tackle. He hit the Golbat head on, making me grin ecstatically. Now this was more like it.

To keep up our good fortune, hopefully, I let out a Flamethrower, scorching two nearby unsuspecting opponents. They hit the ground with a thud. I flinched slightly. That must have hurt..

But they weren't done yet.

Three Zubat surrounded Bidoof, cornering him into the wall of the cave. He tried to chase them off with another Tackle, but they simply dodged. Together, all three started to attack him with a barrage of Supersonic Attacks. I made a furious lunge towards him, but was stopped by a Wing Attack to the legs. I crashed into the ground, trying not to let out a pathetic whimper of pain. My back leg hurt so much, and I could tell that I wasn't going to be able to put any weight on it for a while. Regardless, my friend was in trouble.

I stood on my three good legs and shakily made my way over to Bidoof, limping as quickly as I could. With a quick Ember, I made my way through and stood in front of the Pokemon, blocking the attacks from hitting him. My energy started to drain from my body, and my legs shook with weakness.

Bidoof must have seen this, because he leapt upwards and actually charged all three Zubat at once. He used Scratch and Tackle, managing to take one of them down completely and damage another pretty well. I was proud of him. But the other one was still at full health, and managed to beat Bidoof down eventually. He hit the wall hard, falling unconscious.

Fortuantely, that gave me enough time to come behind the Zubat and give it a vicious Faint Attack, knocking it out almost instantly. I landed on my feet, but my legs instantly buckled as soon as they hit the ground. I layed there, my vision wavering. Dimly, I was aware of a shadow looming over my body, but I couldn't tell who it was. Another enemy? Someone passing through?

My eyes began to close, and I barely felt it when someone lifted me from the ground. Being carried by two strong arms, I let myself fall into darkness.


Review! Until next time!
