Hikari's POV

" Eve, use quick attack!" I command my Eevee as we are attacked by a wild Purrloin for the 100th time since we had left the others along route 2 to train, 3 hours ago. Eve's attack hit the Purrloin and it faints. I throw my pokeball at it and I hold my breath as it shakes once, twice, three time, then give at quit click and stops shaking.

" Yes! Good Job Eve! we did it!" I jump up and down In excitement, and throwing my arms in the air.

" Vee! Vee!" Eve says copying my excitement, then trotting over to the caught pokemon and pushing the release button on its pokeball. the Purrloin comes out of the pokeball.

" Loin!" it says, saying hello to my Eevee as she says hello back to her. I walk over to her and the Purrloin and sit down next to them.

" Hello, my name is Hikari, and if you wouldn't mind I would like to be your trainer Purrloin." I asked the Purrloin. "I'm sure we will be really good friends, along with my other pokemon."

" Loin, Loin." the Purrloin says as it jumps into my lap and curls into a ball, purring slightly. I giggle, and Eve comes to rest on my shoulder as we both watch the now sleeping Purrloin in my lap.

" I think I'm going to call you...Star, because he is a very good sleeper and also the stars tonight are really pretty." I say to Eve. I lean my back against a nearby tree deciding to let Star sleep a little while before we had to go back to the campsite where the others were waiting. I look at the stars and trace out constellations with my figure. Eve had jumped from my shoulder and was now curled at my side fast asleep. I remember how N and I would stare up at the stars like this, with N's Zoran, Zor, curled between us. N would point out a constellation and tell me all about them, and I would giggle telling him how I someday wished to be able to touch the stars, a childish dream it there ever was one, but I was happy. N was my big brother, my safe haven, and he would teach me anything and everything I could possibly think about. That was before father sent N out on missions and before he started to hit me.

before I had realized it I had fallen asleep.

~~~~ Dream~~~~

I was laying on the hill outside the castle that served as my adoptive home, N layed beside me liked he had when we were little, pointing at the stars. We were both laughing, and he tugged a strained of my hair playfully. I star up at the stars wishing that this moment could last forever.

" N? " I ask contently, but I never hear a reply. I turned my head to look at him but her was gone. " N!? Where did you go?!" my voice filling with alarm. I sit up, some of my purple hair falling into my eyes. I blink my eyes pushing some of the hair out of my face, and a black shadow engulfs me. I look around me but there's nothing but black nothingness. I stand up turning In a circle.

" Where am I?" I ask into the darkness.

" Come to me Hikari. Give me your soul so that I may live again." A cold voice reaches me through the darkness, pulling me towards it. I tried to resist the pull of the voice but my body was moving on its own. suddenly I hear another voice call out to me through the darkness.

"' Hikari!" I knew that voice. As I turn around the scenery changes and I'm now standing on the edge of a cliff over looking a pit of endless darkness. I could see something running towards me, coming closer and closer.

" Hikari! Stop!" I can now see that the figure was N and he was running towards me with his hand out stretched. * N...?* The pull became stronger. N was almost in arms reach of me. but it was to late.

" I'm sorry N." I whisper as I step off the cliff falling towards my death. I watched N reach for my hand as I fell, his hand brushing my figure tips.

" Hikari!" N yells, his voice filled with despair and anguish, his hand still reached out to me over the cliff. " I'm sorry N..." my eyes fill with tears, I close them waiting for the end to come.

~~~~ End of Dream~~~~

I was laying on the ground shaking hysterically, no longer leaning against the tree. I was crying the tears stinging my cheeks as they fell down my face. Eve and Star had disappeared. I curl up into a ball hugging my knees to my chest. my Sobs filling the silence that surrounded me.

Yellow's Pov

I sat on a fallen tree next to Red in front of a burning fire. we had been joking around a minute ago but now we sat in silence, just staring at the dancing flames of the fire. After we had left Accumla Town we had set up a camp site in the wood because Hikari, Red, and Silver had all wanted to train there pokemon for the gym battle in the next town, the first one in the Unova region. I never was much myself a very good battler. after defeating the elite 4 all those years ago, I had given up on battling.

I had stayed behind and set the campsite while the others trained. Red had come back after about 2 and a half hours, silver shortly after that. But Hikari had still yet to come back, and we were now nearing 4 hours. I would be a fool for not worrying about her. I gave a deep sigh, and turned to Red.

" Red... um..." I couldn't think of anything to say to him so I just closed my mouth and stared at the fire again. *man is this awkward. I don't know what to say to him. why wont to say anything!*

" Hey Yellow," Red says finally breaking the silence. " I never asked you why did you decide to take this trip with us, you don't like to battle?" he questions. I fidget with my hands, trying to figure out how to respond.

" Well, um... I guess it was because... I wanted to see someplace new." I lied not wanting to tell him that the reason I came was because he was going. we lapsed back into to silence. !0 minutes pass and I finally can't stand it any more.

" I going for a walk." I declare suddenly, not able to sit in silence any longer.

" Um, Yellow. I don't think that's a good Idea..." Red is cut off by a rustling sound it the bushes. for the first time scince he came back Silver came down from the tree he was sitting in.

" What was that?" Silver asks. As an answer two Pokemon burst, panicked, out of the bushes. It was Hikari's Eevee and a Purrloin.

" Eve!" I say surprised. both pokemon run up to me, the Purrloin jumping into my arms. I felt a familiar tingle sensation coming from the Purrloin. It belonged to Hikari. I put it down on the ground and kneel in front of both the pokemon.

" What is it girl? Where's Hikari?" I asked Hikari's Eevee. The Eevee bows its head inviting me to reads its thoughts. I touch its head a a floods of memories enters my mind.

~~~~ Memory~~~~

Hikari was staring up at the stars her eyes closing then falling asleep. Hikari was sleeping soundly with a Purrloin in her lap. Hikari face looked so peaceful. Suddenly she stiffens starting to talk in her sleep. The Purrloin wakes up and jumps out of Hikari's lap. Hikari falls over tears starting to roll down her cheeks. He eyes flash open and start to glow red. She lets out a scream her arms coming up to grip her head in agony. she stops screaming and a voice that's not her own speaks from her body. " I will win Hikari hill, you can not escape me!" This time she screams even louder.

~~~~ End of Memory~~~~

I flinch away from the Pokemon not believing what I just saw.

" Yellow what's wrong? what did she show you?" Silver asks me. I'm to stunned to speak, instead I grab my hat off the log and nod to the Eevee, who takes off into the forest. I sprint after her, not bothering to answer the calls of the others.

The Eevee slows to a stop not far from the main trail and I see Hikari laying under it curled into a ball and sobbing quietly.

" Hikari?" I inquire hesitantly wondering if her eyes were still glowing red. her body goes ridged and she stops crying. She unfolds herself and slowly turns to look at me, her bloodshot eyes staring at me.

" Yellow? w-why are you here?" she asks softly. I take the last steps and kneel next to her.

" Your Pokemon came and got me." I point out her Eevee and her Purrloin. Hikari suddenly wraps her arms around me and cry's into my shoulder.

" I felt so alone!" she wales her arms tightening. I hug her back, not saying a word.

" I thought that I had died! the voice... it pulled me into the pit and... and N treys to save me but..." she sobs louder and louder. what was N doing here? what pit was she talking about. I rub her back, trying to quit her crying. After a little bit her crying subsides and she let's go, looking at her Eevee and Purrloin.

"Let's go back to camp and gets some sleep." I say and we stand up and make our way back to camp.

We enter camp and Red rushes up to both of us.

"Where did you go? you scared me half to death!" Red yells and Silver walks up behind him also looking worried. Red gaze wander from my face to Hikari's and his anger fades away. I grab Hikari's hand and lead her towards our tent.

" Nows not the best time guys." I say ignoring the question and leading Hikari into the tent with out another word.
