A/N: I had an authors note.. That was before I even started this chapter. So, yes, this chapter is named after the song from Brother Bear. I seriously recommend you hear it when reading this.. it makes a lot more sense then, I guess. Enjoy.
Chapter Nine: No Way Out
Pikachu carried on running, not knowing where he was any more. He spotted a tree, breathed out in relief, and slumped down in front of it. The rain was still beating down heavily, but at least it was dry under the tree. This small bit of happiness was shattered when the leaves started dripping water.
Nyasu started running, his hair soaking wet, tears streaming from his eyes. He had to find Pikachu, had to. He didn't care if Pikachu wouldn't talk to him. If he just got him somewhere safe, he'd be happy.
Pikachu looked up, the rain beating onto his face. He knew he should apologize to Nyasu, but he couldn't bring himself to go back.
Nyasu tripped over, and just lay there, in the pouring rain, too weak to get up.
