I don't own Pokemon! I just own my wonderful OC's! Enjoy the new chapter and please review!

Keena and Sunfall jumped silently from tree to tree in the dead of night. Team Rocket Grunts were crawling all over the forest by now. If they were on the ground, they would be seen. If they made a noise, they would be caught. Keena had overheard some grunts saying if they found anybody, they would be killed immediately. Soon, they came to a camp where the jeeps had been heading.

The grunts were hauling different sized cages everywhere. There were many different kinds of pokemon in them. Some were sleeping. Others were looking around with terror in their eyes. Few were trying to get out, pushing on the sides of the cages. But they were soon shut up by grunts. The people had special rods. The ends of them were sharp and gave off electricity. The rebellious Pokemon were shocked and hurt bad. Keena had to help them.

Just as Keena was about to leave the camp, she saw a larger man walking with a Persian by his side. Grunts bowed down to him in respect. That must be Giovanni. Keena thought. She could hear him talking.

"I want all these pokemon loaded by morning! Then take them to the base. Make sure you disguise the vehicles and knock out all the pokemon." He said. Till morning. That was enough time. And now she knew what to look for.

Below, she could see a Purrloin trying comfort other pokemon around. It tried reaching through cages to gives others pats on back. "Don't worry guys! We will get out of this." She said cheerfully. The other pokemon looked at her like she was crazy. She had black feathers grouped around her right ear. They looked like raven feathers. One grunt walked up to the cage, annoyed by her. Since all he heard was constant purring and meowing.

"Shut your trap cat! Or I'll do the honours." He yelled, shaking the cage. This only angered the Purrloin. She let out a furious hiss and tried lashing out with her claws. The guard grabbed her cage and threw it to the ground. Purrloin hit the ground hard. The metal bars didn't cushion the fall either. Little did the guard know, Purrloin snatched his keys while attacking. She was always an amazing thief. The people of the city she once lived in didn't like her at all.

The Purrloin curled into a ball around the keys so she wouldn't be found. Her feathers stuck out too. Keena continued her way to Violet city. She hadn't seen the Purrloin snatch the keys either.

After about 30 minutes of jumping from tree to tree, Keena couldn't hear Team Rocket anymore. She decided it was safe to jump down and run the rest of the way. The sky was thankfully starting to clear up. She could see the moon start dipping behind the clouds. Morning would come around soon.

She forced her tired legs to keep running. Sunfall was stumbling around so much she had to carry him. It didn't take to long to get to the city. The lights were dimmer and no cars were driving about. The stores were closed and nobody was out and about. She would have to find the police station soon.

After walking round the city for a bit, Keena found the pokemon center. She decided it was a good idea to let Sunfall rest a bit so she went in. The clock said it was 4am. She looked around and couldn't find the nurse. Trainers were sitting everywhere, snoozing away. It was rather dark too. In a hallway to the side, she saw a light on.

Keena walked into the room with the light. Inside she saw Nurse Joy and Officer Jenny. Not who she was expecting. "You shouldn't be out this late hon. There are criminals running around you know." She said. Jenny had bags under her eyes, showing she hardly had any rest. "I already have enough trouble trying to find Team Rocket without looking for average criminals." She said, shaking her head.

"Please listen this is important!" Keena said breathlessly. "I know where they are. I was walking in the forest and we came across their camp in the forest." She told the officer.

"That's great! You can take us to them!" Said Jenny. The sun was just rising in the sky. Keena should her head.

"No that won't work. I was listening to a conversation. Giovanni wanted them to disguise the jeeps and take the pokemon to their base. They wanted to be gone by morning." Keena said. Team Rocket would already be away from that camp by now.

"Well then we are just going to have to look at all vehicles entering any cities. I'll let the other Jenny's know. Meanwhile you get some rest. You had a late night." Said the officer. She left to find a video phone. Keena sat in the nearest chair with Sunfall on her lap and instantly fell asleep.

Keena didn't sleep long. She woke up around 11am. But she needed to know if the police found the smuggled pokemon yet. She left the pokemon center and headed towards the police station. Not long after she left, Keena heard someone calling her from behind.

"Wait up! Please!" Keena turned around to see a purple cat running towards her. It was the Purrloin from earlier. She ran up to the girl and collapsed at her feet. "I saw you last night. In the trees! I know it was you. You smell the same." Said the cat. "I know why you couldn't help us out. I spotted policemen running all around the forest. But Team Rocket is gone! They're gone."

With that she passed out. The poor cat must having been running around like crazy. Keena quickly ran Purrloin to the Pokemon center. Her fur was messy and she was thin. Keena was surprised the cat was able to run so far. After nurse Joy healed her, Keena and Sunfall sat down with the cat. They waited for her to wake up.

Purrloin slowly opened up her eyes. She realized she was in a hospital. Purrloin tensed up immediately by relaxed when she saw Keena. Purrloin crawled towards Keena and cuddled into her arms. "I won't tell the others but I was scared." Said the Purrloin.

"How did you get away?" Keen had been wondering how she had gotten out and wanted to know.

"I'm a master thief. Stealing that guards keys was easier than taking candy from a baby!" Purrloin said. Even though theft was a crime, Purrloin prided herself in her stealth skills and ability to steal without getting caught. "I managed to hide the keys until they were loading us up. I quietly unlocked the door and made a run for it. The guards almost caught me and I dropped the keys. I was hit by many different pokemon attacks. Some of those pokemon like doing that." Purrloin said. She looked down, angry with herself. She never got caught. This was an embarrassment.

"But you're fine now. That's all that matters. We can try to go help your friends." Keena said. Sunfall nodded too. Purrloin looked grateful. "So what's your name?" She asked the purple cat.

"Nothing. I've been called many things. My street name was Black Thief, but I never liked it. Some pokemon say I don't deserve a name." Said the cat.

"How about I give you a name?" Keena suggested. "You don't have to keep it, but every pokemon deserves a name."

The Purrloin looked grateful. She gave the girl a small smile.

"Ya! Keena gave me my name. Sunfall. So what are some things you like?" Said Sunfall. The cat was pinky and he liked her.

"Night time was always my favorite. The day is nice, but I perfer to sneak in the dark." Said the cat. She was toying with her feathers embarrassed. Purrloin was never asked questions or treated so nicely. "I got these feathers from some really rich guy. He was always mean to me on the streets. So I raided his house. He was mad but it was so funny. Especially when I let the raven go. Ravens can be called the angels of night, and that man had pet raven. I let him free and he gave me some feathers. I've had them ever since."

Purrloin looked happy telling times of her theft. The good times in her life. The purple cat the touching the black feathers. They were obviously very important to her. Keen gave a thoughtful an actual name would be important to the cat so she had to make it good. Feathers. Night. Black. Black feathers. Night is black. Night feather.

"How about Nightfeather?" Keena said, thinking out loud. Purrloin look at her for a moment. Her emotions hidden. Soon a huge smile appeared on her face and she jumped onto the unsuspecting girl, knocking her out of her chair. Keena layed on the floor with Purloin hugging and purring against her.

"I love it! Thank you so much!" Said the newly named cat. "Nightfeather. That is my name." Said Nightfeather proudly. She got off Keena and started walking towards the door. "Look out Team Rocket! Nightfeather is on her way!" She said to the air.

"I'm glad you like it Purloin, I mean Nightfeather." Keena corrected herself. She was glad she made the cat happy. She sat up and Sunfall jumped on her shoulder. "By the way, my name is Keena." The purple cat nodded gratefully.

"So do you know where Team Rocket is?" Sunfall asked. He looked at the cat with questioning eyes. Nightfeather looked back with her dark green eyes, unblinking.

"Well of course. I've got nose that can rival the dogs, I can see in dark as well as light and I can hear a pin drop at a party." Said the cat. She was thief and had honed her skills to perfection. But for a moment she looked down at the floor ashamed. "The Rockets must have anted me for that reason. They sent Arcanine and Houndoom to capture me. I thought I outrun them but I didn't. They got me. It made me feel ashamed." She said, looking at her paws.

"It would make sense they would want a master thief on their side." Keena said, petting Nightfeather. She tried to make the cat feel better. Nightfeather smiled at compliment. Sunfall jumped from Keena's shoulder to the windows till. It was noon by now and police were running around the city looking for jeeps or suspicious vehicles. But no signs of Team Rocket showed up.

"Come on. Let's go find them." Sunfall said. The suns rays were hits his fur, making it look almost gold. Now, at least half of Keena's hair was white. It was very bright in the sun. Nightfeather nodded her head. And stood up on her hind legs.

"Shouldn't we get the police?" Keena suggested.

"Well, I'm a wanted criminal technically so I could get arrested and they will only get in the way." Said Nightfeather with a smirk. "So let's find them ourselves . I can sniff them out follow me." She said. Keena and Sunfall followed the cat out of town into the forest, towards the Kanto region. They all walked in silence through the dense forest. Hours went by and the sun was setting. By now, the snow had completely melted and spring was here.

Suddenly Nightfeather stopped walking and gave the air a good smell. "We are getting close. Let's wait till dark so we are harder to see us." Nightfeather said. Keena nodded. She knew the pokemon had way more expierence with tracking, sneaking, and hiding than herself. They decided to climb a tall tree for the time being.

It was a large pine tree. The dark needles would help keep the trio hidden. The sun set and dusk had come. Soon, they could see lights not to far off in the distance. They were very deep in the woods. They were also in the Kanto region. "That's them. That's were the Rockets are hiding. Let's get going. Stay in the tree line so we don't get caught." Nightfeather said.

They all jumped from tree to tree. While jumping, they passed many grunts patrolling the forest. This time though, they had pokemon with them. For extra protection probably. Thankfully, there was a strong wind that rustled the leaves. The wind kept there scent from reaching the pokemon and made any sound they made seem like it was from the wind.

It didn't take long to reach the camp. But it wasn't a camp. It was a mountain. A cave. It was the entrance to the base. The jeeps were all lined up at the side of the rock. Tyranitar guarded the entrance. The caged pokemon were being hauled into the cave. Keena didn't know what was inside there. The much high ranked grunt were ordering around the others.

"I can smell your fear Keena." Whispered Nightfeather. The small girl looked at her surprised. She never showed fear. So how did the cat know she was scared? "The body emits a different scent when they are scared. Same with lying. Everybody does something that shows they are lying. But everybody also emits a different scent. And the bigger the lie or worse the fear, the more obvious is becomes." Nightfeather said. It was like she just read the girls mind.

"So how do we get in?" Sunfall asked. He wanted to know what was inside. "We need a plan." He suggested. Keena and Sunfall looked at Nightfeather.

"So just because I'm a thief means I gotta come up with the plan. Well I feel so overwhelmed." Said Nightfeather sarcastically. Nightfeather had a spontaneous and playful personality.

Keena gave a small chuckle. "Ok kitty, what do you think we should do?" Keena knew nothing about about getting in and out of building unnoticed so they were relying on the young Purloin to figure this out. Keena gave a thoughtful look.

"Well here's what I think we should do..."

Haha! Cliffhanger! Gotta love them.

So has anyone figured out a pattern in my names?

I love Warriors. The Warrior books.

So I'm making the names like them.
