Ch.9: Darkness in Orre

(Third person to Kage's P.O.V.)

A pair of sharp dark blue eyes peered through the leaves, looking at their prey. Their target, a human named, Kage Uchiha. The pair of eyes belong to a shining Glaceon, she took a step towards her prey but stepped on a twig and snapped it. The left ear of the human twitch in her direction, the young Glaceon stopped in her tracks. His ear returned to it's original position, and the Glaceon began to prowl through the bushes. The Glaceon thought she was close enough to her target, jumping out from the bushes caused Kage to turn around with his claws showing a sliver glow, which was Metal Claw. At the last second Kage's claws dimmed, he grabbed the Glaceon in a hug and placed her on the ground. "How did I do, Uncle Kage? How did I do?" she asked, wagging her tail with excitement, "You did great, Glaci." I told her, "But there are two things I would have done." "What's that?" she asked me, with her tail still wagging, "The first thing; is jumping out of your hiding area, because you did that, I was able to learn where you were hiding and counter." I told her, "And the second was aiming for my shoulder; I would have gone for the throat, that's everybody's weak spot." Glaci's tail stopped wagging and she looked disappointed, then her tail started wagging again, "Can we try again?" she asked, "Maybe later. We need to go back to the campsite." "Ok." Glaci said with a smile.

Oh, hey! I didn't see you there. I see you meet Glaci, she's Jolteon's and Glaceon's daughter. For some reason she was born a Glaceon and not an Eevee, I don't know why but we're not complaining. Jolteon and Glaceon asked me to watch her for them. Carol was also asked to watch her, but she twisted her ankle so she's back at the campsite resting. Sakura and Sasuke decided to return to our home town. Glaci and I climbed the last hill, all that stood between us and the campsite was a bundle of bushes. Glaci dashed ahead and disappeared through the bushes, then I hear her yell, "Aunt Carol!" followed by an "Oof!" I chuckled to myself. I press through the bushes, to see Glaci on top of Carol's stomach. "There you are Kage, I was starting to get lonely." "You know I wasn't going to long." I told her. We both kissed each other passionately, when we parted our lips I looked at Glaci. She had her front paws covering her face, "It's safe, Glaci." I told her, she removed her paws from her face, and she began to wag her tail again. "Can I play with Mew, Aunt Carol?" she asked, "Glaci, you know I'm not the one you should be asking that question." Carol told her, "Glaci always ask you the questions." I told Carol, I looked at Glaci, "I'll call Mew for you." Glaci hopped off of Carol and I played Mew's Melody. Glaci and Mew played the day away, Carol and I watch them. I heard some leaves being rustled and it seemed Glaci heard them too. Jolteon and Glaceon emerged from the bushes, "Mommy! Daddy!" Glaci happily yelled, running towards her parents. "Glaci, did you have fun with Uncle Kage?" Glaceon asked, "Uh-huh, I almost had him." Glaci told her mother, "Almost?" "What did you do this time?" Jolteon asked her, "I jumped out of my hiding place and attack Uncle Kage's shoulder." Glaci said. As Glaci and Mew continued to play, the four of us talked, "Thanks for watching Glaci for us, Kage." Glaceon said, "No problem, she and I had fun." I said, "Did Glaci learn from her past hunting mistakes?" Jolteon asked, "I think she stepped on a twig, but I wasn't sure." "She learn to stop moving if that happen." Glaceon said.

The sun disappeared behind the trees, "Glaci! It's time to call it a day!" Glaceon called to her daughter, "Ok Mommy!" Glaci called back. We ate the berries that grew around the campsite. Being on the road all the time and being transformed, my taste for food changed, I seem to like the berries for that reason. The night went on, Glaci was between her parents eating a Lum Berry, when she was done she let out a yawn and she snuggled into Glaceon's side curling up into a ball. "Someone's getting sleepy." Glaceon said, she picked Glaci up by the scarf of her neck and walked to the tent. I bought the tent a year ago, for the winter. "Are you coming, Jolteon?" Glaceon asked, through gritted teeth, "Yeah, I'm coming." Jolteon replied. He got up and walked to the tent, "Glaceon! There's more blankets in my pack." I told her, "Thanks." she replied, and disappeared into the tent with Jolteon right behind her. "I'm going to turn in too." Carol said, "What about you?" "I'll be in there in a few minutes." I told her, "Good night." "You too, Kage." Carol said, disappeared into the tent.

After a few minutes, I started walking to the tent, "Uchiha." I looked around for who called my name, "Hello?" I asked, no one respond, "Uchiha." the voice said again, "Is anyone there?" the voice started to sound like a female, "Uchiha." I recognized the voice, "Lady Ho-Oh?" I asked, "Finally, I made contact with you." she replied, "What's wrong?" I asked, "The three Legendary Dogs are missing." "I thought something was wrong." "Yes. Not only that, there's darkness spreading in my mate's region." "The Orre Region?" "Yes. There are some Pokemon there that are battling like fighting machines." "Pokemon are not meant to be use that way." "That's not all." "What else is there?" "These Pokemon use an attack called 'Shadow Rush' ." "Shadow Rush?" "He got close enough to hear a Trainer shout it out." "And you think this had to do with the disappearance of the Dogs?" "Yes. Will you go look in to this?" "I don't know." "What do you mean?" "I need to talk-" "No!" "Why not?" "No one, but you needs to know-" "They are part of this!" "No, they are not!" "Is this because of what happen to you?" "I-I don't know what you're-" "You trusted more than one human and they betrayed you!" "We chose you, because you believed that Pokemon have a choice to go with humans." "And you and your mate treat me, like a Pokemon forced to do anything you say." "I apologize." "Please, let me talk to my friends, I don't go anywhere if they don't want to go." "I'll let you talk to them." "Thank you, Lady Ho-Oh." After I said that, there was silence. I walked into the tent, Jolteon and Glaceon were sleeping together with Glaci between them. I turned into my wolf form, so I can move more easily. I walked up next to Carol and laid next to her. Feeling my presence, Carol placed her arm around me and pulled me close to her. I fell asleep once I got conferrable.

The next morning, I felt someone sniffing my head, "Uncle Kage, wake up." Glaci said, "Glaci." I said yawning, "What are you doing." "Waking you up." Glaci replied, "I always forget you're an early Starly." Glaci managed to squeeze herself between me and Carol. Carol began to wake up, I guess she felt Glaci squeeze in, "Who's this?" she asked, "Morning, Aunt Carol." Glaci said. Carol hugged Glaci followed by a kiss on her forehead, "What about me?" I asked, Carol leaned down and kissed my forehead, "Somebody help me!" Glaci yelled, between us. "Sorry, Glaci." I said. I heard Glaceon stirring in her sleep, I looked at her, she yawned, stretched, and looked at Jolteon. Then Glaceon began to look around the tent, more faster every time she changed directions. She looked at me, with panic in her eyes, "Where's Glaci?" she asked, worriedly. Carol reached into the blanket and pulled Glaci out around the middle, "Here I am!" she happily yelled. Glaceon sighed, "Don't scare me like that." "It's too early for this" Jolteon mumbled in his sleep, "I'm still sleeping." Carol put Glaci down and she jumped on Jolteon's stomach. "I guess I'm not any more." he said with a chuckle. Everyone ate breakfast while I packed up the tent, I was wondering how was going to tell them what Lady Ho-Oh told me. "Kage?" Carol asked, "Are you ok?" "I don't know." I replied, "What's wrong?" "I have to tell you, Jolteon, Glaceon, and Glaci something." "Tell us what, Uncle Kage?" Glaci asked. We sat down and I told them what Lady Ho-Oh needs me to do, "So, what are you going to do?" Jolteon asked, "That's why I'm asking you guys." I told him, "I just can't go anywhere without you guys." After several minutes, "I'm in." Jolteon said, "Same here." Glaceon said, "Me too!" Glaci happily said. I looked at Carol, she seemed to be deep in thought, I guess she didn't want to say it in front of everyone, "What are you thinking about, Carol?" I asked her, telepathically, "I just don't know if I can go to another region." she told me, "Carol, the Three Legendary Dogs contains Suicune, Raikou, and Entei." "Wait, the Suicune! Is this one the one you know?" "Yeah. It's your Aunt, Carol." "I'm going with you." she told me. "Alright, give me a minute to tell Lady Ho-Oh." I told them. "Lady Ho-Oh? Are you there?" "Yes. I'm here" "I talked to everyone. And we have agreed to go to the Orre Region." "Please, save the Pokemon from this darkness." "We will."

We made our way to Lakeport City to catch the ferry to the Hoenn Region, but the ferry won't be leaving for two hours. "So what are we going to do for two hours?" Jolteon asked, "I don't know." I replied, "You and I can go out shopping for supplies." Glaceon said. I looked at her, "Why do you want-" "Jolteon. Carol. Watch Glaci." "Ok?" they replied, confused. "Mommy, I want to go with you." Glaci said, "Glaci, I need you to stay with your Father and Aunt Carol." Glaceon told her. Glaceon nudged me to get moving.

After a good twenty minutes of Glaceon nudging me, we stopped in front of a jewelry stand, "What are you doing, Glaceon?" I asked her, "Are you seriously telling me, you don't know what today is?" I had to think for a minute, then it hit me, "It's the day Carol and I became mates." "You need to get her a gift. That's why I pushed you here." I didn't know what to get her. I saw something at the stand, it look like a Pokemon, I figure it was the owner's Pokemon. "Excuse me." I said to the Pokemon, to my surprised, it had human characteristics, and nine tails. "Can I help you?" she asked, "You're a Ninetales half-breed." I said, "Did my tails give it away or was it my feminine structure?" she asked, in a seductive tone. After she said that, it look like she snap back into reality, "I'm sorry." she said, "I got that attitude from my mother." "From the sound of it, she must have used Attract on your Father." I told her, "She did." "I hate to be rude." Glaceon butted in, "But we do have a ferry to catch in an hour and thirty minutes." "Of course." "My name is Nala." she told us, "I'm Kage Uchiha." "The Freewill Trainer?" she asked, "The one and only." Glaceon said. "Then please help yourself to anything you want." Nala happily said. I began to look at the necklaces, "What are you looking for exactly?" Nala asked me, "The perfect gift for my mate." I replied, "She's a Suicune half-breed." "Crimson eyes?" "Yeah." Nala disappeared behind the counter and popped back up in a second, "Might I recommend this?" she asked. I looked at the necklace, it was a Crimson Emerald cut into a cresset moon shape. "It's perfect." I said in awe, "I need to get Glaceon, Jolteon, and Glaci something." "Hey, Glaceon?" "Yeah?" "Can you head back to the others? I'll be with you in a sec." "Ok?" Glaceon said, confused. After she left I turned back to Nala. "Do have any clear crystal necklaces?" I asked her, "What kind?" "One with a Lighting bolt, another with a Snowflake, and one with both." I told her. Nala did the whole disappear and popped back up routine again, and had all three of the necklaces. "Why do you need these?" she asked, "I giving them to my friends." I told her. "The wild Pokemon that follow you?" "Yep. Jolteon, Glaceon, and their pup." "Oh, a cute little Eevee?" she asked, "Well, their pup was born as a Glaceon." "That's confusing." "No, we call her Glaci." "Aw, that's cute." she replied. Nala packed the necklaces in their boxes, put them in the bag, and gave them to me, "Have a great journey." she said, "Thank you." I replied.

After ten minutes, I spotted the my friends but there was a Trainer talking to Carol. "So how about it? You and me in a two on two battle?" he asked, "I told already, I'm not a Trainer." Carol told him, "Then why do you have these weaklings?" "Because I asked her to watch them, until I came back." I told him, "And I accept your battle."

We made room for our Pokemon to battle, the Trainer grabbed two of his Pokeballs, "Alright, Absol, Houndoom, stand by." he threw the balls in the air, the balls opened shooting a white light and the two Pokemon stood in their fighting stance. "Two Dark-type Pokemon and one of them is also a Fire-type." I said, "I can take both of them on." Jolteon said, "I know." I replied, "It's Glaceon I'm worried about." "I fought a Ninetales." Glaceon told me, "A Houndoom is stronger than a Ninetales." I told her, "I can take it." "Alright, Jolteon, Glaceon, let's go." As they took their position, I looked at Carol, "Hang on to Glaci." she gave me a nod and pick Glaci up. I turned back to my opponent, "Your move." I told him, "Both of you use Flamethrower on that Glaceon!" he yelled. Absol and Houndoom shot a stream of fire at Glaceon, "Jolteon, counter one with Thunder! Glaceon, counter the other with Ice Beam!" They fired their attacks at the others, resulting in an explosion. I had an idea, "Jolteon, use Pin Missile at your 11 o'clock! Glaceon, Blizzard at your 1 o'clock!" I told them, they fired their attacks. The attacks vanished into the smoke and then, two painful grunts. "Faint Attack now!" the smoke cleared, but the two Dark-types were gone, "Guys be careful." I told them. they stood their ground, but the Pokemon appeared and rammed them to the ground. "Now finish that pathetic Glaceon with your Flamethrower!" the Trainer ordered, the Absol and Houndoom stood over Glaceon, but they didn't attack right away, "We're sorry." they both said. I saw Jolteon stand back up, "Jolteon, use Volt Tackle!" I told him. Jolteon charged at the Dark-types with his burst of electricity. The two Pokemon turned at Jolteon and got rammed, hard enough to be knocked to their trainer's feet. "Get up!" he ordered, "I order you two to get up and fight!" they struggled to back on their feet, "Please stay down." I begged them, "We have to get up." the Absol said, "If we don't there's going to be trouble." the Houndoom said, "I'll deal with him." I reassured them. They both of them stopped struggling to stand up and fell to the ground. "You worthless pieces of-" "Don't finish that sentence!" I threaten him, "I can call these pathetic creatures anything I want!" he shouted back, "They're my servants!" he said taking their Pokeballs out. I was furious of what he just said, without holding back, I dashed towards him with Metal Claw ready to strike. The Trainer threw the balls to return them, but right as he threw them, I slashed my claws at the balls and they shattered. "Not any more." I growled, "What did you do?" he demanded, "I destroyed their Pokeballs." I told him, "They are no longer your Pokemon." "You will regret this, you freak!" At that point, I lost control of my anger, I felt myself black out, but then I felt someone grab my shoulder. I came back, to see Carol with a frighten look in her eyes. "I'm sorry." I told her, "As long as you didn't go fully into the Rage." she replied. The Trainer stormed off and the two freed Pokemon ran to the forest. I turned to Carol, "I got something for you." I pulled the Crimson Moon out. Carol gasped at the gift, "Kage, it's beautiful." she said, "How did you afford this?" "The owner of the stand was a half-breed." I told her, "She let me pick the necklace free of charge." I let Carol put her gift on, and she was more beautiful, with it on. "By the way," I told the family, "I got you guys something as well." "What did you get me, Uncle Kage?" Glaci asked, wagging her tail, "Close your eyes and no peeking." I told her. Glaci shut her eyes tight, "You two as well." I told Jolteon and Glaceon. They did close their eyes and I pulled the necklaces out. I carefully put their gifts around their necks. "Ok." I said, They opened their eyes and saw what was around their necks. "A Clear Lightening Bolt?" Jolteon asked, "I have a Clear Snowflake." Glaceon told him, "I have both!" Glaci happily yelled, "Glaci, you have a Clear Lightening/Snowflake necklace." I told her. "I got you something too, Kage." Carol told me, "What is it?" I asked her, she pulled out a hooded cloak. I look at the cloak, it look likes the only way to put it on was like a shirt, "I was thinking since the Orre Region hasn't seen anything like you," she explain, "this was the only thing that came to my head." I put the cloak on, it was long enough to cover my tail and the hood reached over my ears. "I like it." I told her, "A little uncomfortable, but I like it." "Hey are you two going to the Orre Region?" asked a Trainer, "Yeah, why?" I asked, "The ferry is about to leave." hearing this, we dashed to the docks. We made it in time, before they close the gate, "That was close." I said, "Yeah, it would have been bad if we missed it." Carol said. We start to walk around the boat, until we heard a loud growling, "What the hel-" Glaceon interrupted me, by clearing her throat, "heck was that?" I asked, we looked down at Glaci, "I'm hungry." she stated, I couldn't help but chuckle at her, "Alright, Glaci we'll find the restraint." I told her. We found it in about twenty minutes, and took our seats. I was surprised to see more half-breeds in the restraint, a Persian half-breed came up to us, "Good afternoon," she said, "my name is Luna and I'll be your waitress today." I looked at Carol, Jolteon, and Glaceon, I know what we wanted, "Yes the four of us will like a salad." I said, "Ok, and for this little one?" Luna asked, "The Berry Brawl." she finished writing the order, "Ok. Four salads and one Berry Brawl. Anything to drink?" "Water will be fine." "I'll be back in ten minutes." Luna left us to chat for a bit. "You know." Carol stated, "What?" I asked, "I was never told how you met Jolteon and Glaceon." I looked at them, "Do you want to go first, Glaceon?" Jolteon asked, "Yours is more tragic then mines." she replied, "Why?" Carol asked, "What happened?" And Jolteon began his story.

FLASHBACK (Jolteon's P.O.V. as an Eevee)

I sat at the boundaries of the Pairing Circle of my pack's territory. I watched as the males and females talked to each other and became mates. "Hey, Eevee." a male Vaporeon said to me, "What's the matter, Jet?" I asked him, "I can't find the right mate for me." "Well tell me what you want to see in a girl." "She needs to be beautiful, has a lovely voice, caring, and loves me for who I am." I thought over what he told me, "Jet, you just described Mizu." "What?" he sound surprised, "I can't be mated with her." "Why not?" "She's the daughter of the Betas and I'm a Delta." "And an exhalent hunter." I told him, "Any girl would want you." "But there's no way she'll agreed to be my mate." "I'll go talk to her." I snuck my way to Mizu and two other females, "I just hope someone will ask me out of love and not for my beauty." she told the others, "I know, that's all the males see in us." replied one Vaporeon, "Excuse me." I said, they turned around to look at me, "Hey! You know you're not suppose to be here." snapped one of the females, "This is the son of the Alphas, Mist." Mizu told her. She looked back at me, "Although she right, you're not suppose to be here." "I just need to talk to you." I told her, "About what?" "I talked to Jet earlier." I noticed Mizu's face turned a little red, "R-really?" she stammered, "Yeah, he described what he wants in his mate and he described you." "Ha! As if the daughter of the Betas will pair with the son of the Deltas." Mist laughed, "Mist?" said the other female, "What, Sophitia?" she asked, they looked at Mizu, she looked ashamed. "You can't be serious about pairing with a Delta." Mist snapped, "Think about what your father will say or do." "Actually, I overheard my Dad talking to Mizu's parents." I said, "He's really impressed that Jet became an exhalent hunter, that he'll allow any pair with him." "Where is Jet?" Mizu asked me, "You can't pair with him!" Mist yelled, "Why can't I?" Mizu asked, "Because he's mine!" she barked. I could tell Mizu was furious, "You wanted him all to yourself?" she growled, "Yes, and he will." Mist replied, "I know Attract, and he'll be all mine." "No I won't." we all saw Jet standing behind Sophitia. "Oh, Jet." Mist said, with a seductive tone, I knew she was using Attract. "I was just-" she just froze in mid-sentence, "What's happening to me?" I looked at Jet, his eyes were glowing bright yellow, "I'm stopping you with my Glare attack." he told her, he looked at Mizu with his eyes back to normal, "Mizu, would like to be my mate?" he asked, "Yes, I will love to be with you." I watch as they nudged their heads together, I couldn't help but to smile at them. "That was really sweet of you to help them." said a female, "It's what I do." I replied, "So, what are you going to do when your Father finds out, Son." I yelled when the Vaporeon picked me up. "Mom." I whimpered, "You know, you're not allowed in the Circle." my Mom growled, "Don't you remember what happened the last time you got caught by your Father?" I didn't want to answer, but I'll be in more trouble if I didn't answer, I lowered my ears, "I got grounded." "For a month." she carried me to our den and placed me down on a small set of grass. "You're lucky I got you and not your Father, who found you in the Pairing Circle." my Mom said, "He was in the Circle?" My Mom and I turned to the entrance of our den, "Vortex." my Mom said, "He wasn't in the Circle, just at the boundaries." my Mom told my Dad. I thought he would yell at me, but he started to laugh. "Is that all?' he asked, "Well-" "Sapphire, if he was just at the boundaries, it's fine." I sighed with relief, "The real question is;" he looked at me, "Why were you at the boundaries of the Pairing Circle?" I started to get scared, "I-I just can't wait un-until I e-evolve." I couldn't find the words, I thought I was going to be yelled at for sure. "So you couldn't wait until tomorrow?" he asked, with a chuckle, "You're not mad at me?" I asked him, "I am upset you went to the Circle again." he replied, "So for the rest of the day, you'll not be going anywhere without anyone watching you." "Vortex, aren't you being a little easy on him?" my Mom asked him, "His Rite of Passage is tomorrow," my Dad explained, "grounding him tomorrow is taking his Rite away from him." "Wait! 'The rest of the day?'" I asked, "Where are you two going?" "Your Mother and I are going hunting with some other pack members." my Dad replied, "So until we get back," two other Vaporeons entered the den, "Jet and Mizu will keep an eye on you." I was a little happy about that, "How long will you be gone?" I asked, "We hope only an hour." he replied. My Dad left the den, "Sapphire lets go." he called back, "I'll be there in a second." she called back, she looked at me, "Try to stay out of trouble." "Ok." she licked my head and left the den, leaving me with Jet and Mizu. "We didn't get a chance to thank you for helping us." Jet said, "Yeah, it's like we were made for each other." Mizu said, while nuzzling Jet's neck. "Will you please stop?" I asked them. Both of them were shocked at my attitude. I walked to my bed and laid down, "What's wrong?" Mizu asked, "I just don't know if I want to be a Vaporeon." "What are you talking about?" Jet asked, "Yeah, I mean it's not like you want to be something-" Mizu didn't finished. I looked away from them, "Oh Arceus." "You're serious about evolving into something else?" Jet asked. I didn't answer, "Eevee, talk to us." Mizu said, "Yes, I'm serious." "Then what do you want to evolve into?" Jet asked, "A Jolteon." I replied. "Any reason?" Mizu asked, "The mate I would like." "Please explain." "She needs to be sweet yet vicious, loving yet powerful, and beautiful yet cares for others." "Does your parents know about this?" Jet asked, "I was going to tell them, but they won't understand." I replied, "Your Mother would probably understand." Mizu said, "Maybe." I replied.

After an hour, my parents came home. My Mom had berries in her mouth and my Dad had a Teddiursa in his mouth. "Was he any trouble?" my Dad asked, "No, he just stayed in his bed all day." Mizu replied. My Mom placed the berries in front of me, "He stayed in his bed?" she asked, "Yeah." Jet replied, my Mom looked at me, "Vortex?" "Yes." "I need to talk to our son, alone." "Sure." Dad, Jet, and Mizu left the den. My Mom looked at me, "What's wrong, Son?" she asked, "I don't know if I want to become a Vaporeon." "You have to become a Vaporeon, if you want to have a family." "But, what if I want to be something else?" "Like what?" "A Jolteon." "Why do you want to evolve into a Jolteon?" "Why am I the only Eevee in this pack who wanted to be something else?" my Mom looked upset about something, "Mom?" I asked, "I thought this won't never happen." she said, "What?" "The day you were born, I had a dream that my pup would be a Jolteon." she started to develop tears in her eyes, "And he was with another evolution from the tree and with a Trainer." "Why do you think this has to do with me?" "Because you want to be a Jolteon." "Does Dad know about this?" "He said it's nothing to worry about, that it will never happen." I started to worry, "You can not tell your Father you want to be a Jolteon." "Why?" the tears began to stream down her face, "I can't stand to lose you." "If he wants me to lead the pack, then he'll listen." "I hope you're right." my Dad came back in and we fell asleep.

The next day, all the Eevees, including me, were at the heart of our territory. The Water Stone Shrine. All the Vaporeons sat around the Shrine, my parents sat at the Shrine, my Dad stood up, "Today, these young Eevees becomes adults." the other pack members cheered. My Dad raised his paw and the crowd was silence, "Now let the Rite of Passage begin!" some Eevees went to the Water Stone and evolved into Vaporeons. After several minutes, it was my turn. I walked up to the Stone, but didn't touch it. "Son." my Dad said, "You said you couldn't wait for this day." "I don't." "You don't what?" "I don't want to be a Vaporeon!" the whole pack was shocked and began to talked among themselves, my Dad glared at me. "What do you mean you don't want to be a Vaporeon?" he growled, "I just don't-" I was cut off of my sentence, when my Dad bit the back of my neck and threw me off of the Shrine. I hit the ground with a thud, it felt like one of my back legs got dislocated, I tried to get up but I was hit by a Hydro Pump. "Vortex!" my Mom yelled, "Stop this!" "If he doesn't want to be a Vaporeon, then he doesn't deserve to live!" my Dad yelled, before he fired Hydro Cannon. His attack hit me, I yelled in pain as I flew through the air and slammed into a wall. I felt more bones breaking, my Dad slowly walking towards me, "Dad, I'm sorry." I coughed, "You are not my son." he growled, he charged another Hydro Cannon. Before he fired, I managed to use Double Team, but the impact of my Dad's attack still hit me. I used Quick Attack to get away, the last thing I heard was my Dad yelling, "If I see you anywhere in the territory, I'll kill you!"

Several hours later, I laid down in a field of tall grass quietly sobbing, "Why did he try to kill me?" I asked myself. I heard someone running through the grass, I thought it was one of the Vaporeons coming to finish me off. The runner, ran over me, tripped, and landed next to me, "Watch where you're going!" yelled a female, I coughed, trying to catch my breath, "Are you ok?" I looked to see who tripped over me and it was an Eevee, "No." "What happened to you?" "My Dad tried to kill me." "The Alpha in your pack allowed him to kill you?" "My Dad is the Alpha." "Oh no." I continued to cry and cough and then someone else was heading towards us, the Eevee went into a fighting stance. A human pushed some grass out of his way, "Come any closer and I will Tackle you." she growled, "I'm not going to hurt you two." the human said, "Yeah right." "I'm not." "Wait. You can understand us?" I asked, "Yeah, I'm here to help you." he replied. He careful picked me up, the other Eevee followed close behind. We made it to his house and into his room. The human placed me on his bed and started to heal me of my injuries. "Do you two have any names?" he asked, "In my pack, we don't get named until we evolve." the other Eevee said, "Same here." I added, "What about you?" "My name is Kage Uchiha." he replied.

Several years past, we were in an open field resting from a battle we had, "So are you two ready to evolve?" Kage asked us "We're ready." we said, Kage searched through his pack and pulled out a Thunder Stone. He held it out and touched it, the familiar bright light shown off of my body and dimmed in seconds, "There you go, Jolteon." Kage said to me. I looked over at my body and sure enough I was a Jolteon, "I can't believe that I'm a Jolteon, after all these years." I said, "My turn!" Eevee happily said, "Ok, ok. Calm down." Kage began searching through his pack for the Water Stone, but than she began to glow. A bright light shown off her body and dimmed in seconds. Kage didn't seem to notice, "Ok here you gooooh crap." he said, "What?" she asked, "You evolved." I said, "No I didn't." Kage held the Stone out and she placed her paw on it, she gasped when she saw her paw, "What happened to me?" she asked, "You evolved into a Glaceon." Kage said. She started to get angry, "This isn't fair! Why didn't I get to evolve into a Vaporeon but he got to evolve into a Jolteon!" she yelled, "Look, I'm sorry there's nothing we can do about it." Kage said, Glaceon looked away from us and didn't reply to him. "Maybe you can talk to her." Kage said, "I am." I replied, I walked up to her and sat next to her. "Glaceon-" "Don't call me that." "It's who you are now." "Why did you evolve into what you wanted to but I didn't?" " I don't know but you look beautiful." "You're just saying that to cheer me up." "No, I mean it. You carry everything I see in the mate I love." "What do you mean?" "You're beautiful but you also cared about others, you're sweet but also vicious, and you're loving but also powerful." "What are you trying to say?" "I've seen many Vaporeons and my Mother was the most beautiful of the entire pack" I told her, "But you look more beautiful than her." "What do you mean?" "I would like you to be my mate." I saw that she had tears streaming down her face, "I don't know if you are the right one for me." "I helped males in my pack to find the one they really love, I can help you." "Well, he needs to be strong, handsome, cares for me, and is always there for me." I thought over the description and I couldn't believe who she described, "Glaceon, you described me." "You're just saying that." "I was strong when I was an Eevee, you said I was handsome, I care about you, and I was always there for you when you were sad or upset about something." "You're right." I nuzzled her head and she nuzzled mine. I knew from that day on, we were mates.

FLASHBACK ENDS (Kage's P.O.V.)

"And so here we are today." Jolteon finished his story. "I can't believe your Father tried to kill you." Carol said, "Yeah, but now I know if we end up bumping into him, I can beat him." and he was right, from he told us, Vortex realizes on power and Jolteon realize on his intelligence. "Here you go." Luna said with our food. She placed the bowls, the glasses and the silverwares down. "If you need anything else, feel free to call me." Glaci was already mowing down on her berries before we even started to eat, "Glaci, it's not going anywhere." Glaceon told her, she looked at her mother with berry filled cheeks. We were done eating in about ten minutes, I paid for the meals and we made our way to our room. Glaci gave out a little yawn, so did Jolteon, "Maybe we should turn in for the day." I said, "Yeah." Carol said. I climb into the bed with Carol following me. She placed her head on my chest and I had my arm around her. The family fell asleep at the foot of the bed with Glaci in between them. We slept until the ferry reached it's halfway stop in the Kanto region.
