HEEEYYYY! LovelyLily13 here! You can just call me by my first name. Bryanna! The username's a bother to say…type…Yeah…I'm trying a new font. People be botherin' about my double-spacing, so I'll just…Yeah…
Hitomi scratched her ear with her hind leg. "I think I've got this whole being a Pokémon thing down Shine." She chirped. Shine smiled.
"Great, you're really acting like a Pokémon Hitomi-sensei." She chirped.
Hitomi nodded. "Yeah." She licked her paw. "I never noticed," She licked her paw again and ran it across her head. "But we Eevee look a lot like foxes, but we act like feline Pokémon. We groom ourselves like Meowth, purr like Purrloin, and we chase our tail like Skitty." She sighed.
Shine nodded. "That's true." She said. She scratched her ear. "But we act like canines as well." She declared. "We catch scents easily, we like to bury things, and we growl when we're mad. Felines hiss." She chirped. "It makes me wonder if we're either a feline or canine!" She smiled. "We Eevee are a mystery to even us!" She laughed.
Hitomi nodded. "Yeah. Hey, isn't Emi-chan a great addition to our team?" She asked. "She's great with missions and everything." She laughed. She blinked. "But I'm not sure how many more recruits we can hold in this base. It's so small. And I'm positive the boys are getting tired of building new rooms." She sighed.
Shine nodded to her. "It's a good thing Emi has her own house." She sighed. They exited their room.
"And the fact that Yuri doesn't like sharing a room doesn't help." Hitomi sighed. Kami came running toward them.
"Hitomi-dear!" He pounced on her, sending them rolling back. When they landed, Kami was on top.
"You are surprisingly heavy!" She grunted. Kami ignored her.
"I have awesome news!" He cheered.
"What?" She asked.
"A new stand has opened in Town Square! We gotta go! It sells Friend Areas!" He exclaimed. He got off of her.
Hitomi got up. "What are Friend Areas?" She asked. Emi flew in and landed in front of her.
"Friend Areas are an absolute need for rescue teams Hitomi-chan. It's where recruits go to live once they join your team. The type of Friend Areas you have decides on what type of Pokémon you can recruit, because specific Pokémon live in specific areas." She explained.
Shine blinked. "Where would Eevee like us live?" She asked.
"Evolution Forest! Even better, you can get evolution items there! Just in case either of you decide you want to evolve, you can just go to Evolution Forest and see if you can find a fire, thunder, or waterstone!" Emi squealed. Kami's ears perked.
"Thunderstone?" He asked.
"Yeah. You planning to evolve?" Emi asked.
Kami shook his head. "One day. I wanna learn all my Pikachu moves before I decide to evolve into Raichu. Then I can learn my Raichu moves." He declared. "I'll be able to learn Hyper Beam or Giga Impact when I'm a Raichu."
Hitomi blinked. "Raichu?" She pulled out her Pokédex. She typed something in.
"Raichu, the Mouse Pokémon, and the evolved form of Pikachu. It can shock with more than 100,000 volts, enough to render a Dragonite unconscious." It said.
Kami seemed excited. "Enough to knock out a Dragonite? AWESOME!"
Zozo walked up to him. "I doubt that you could knock out a Dragonite." He said. Kami glared at him.
Emi blinked as she looked at the Pokédex. "What a weird looking thing. What is it?" She asked.
"This is my Pokédex. It tells me all I need to know about Pokémon." Hitomi explained.
"How cool! I want one too! Where'd you get it?" Emi asked.
Hitomi sweatdropped. She looked at Kami. "Should I tell her Kaminari?" She whispered.
Kami sweatdropped. "Well she is a member of the team." He sighed.
"I know that, but…" She looked at Emi, who was smiling patiently. "P-Chan told me she gossips a lot. What if she tells everyone?" She asked.
He folded his arms. "I don't know…I guess we'll have to keep it a secret." He sighed.
"What do we do about the Pokédex?" She asked.
"Well uh…Tell her your parents made it for you." He instructed.
Hitomi nodded. She looked at Emi. "Well…Emi-chan, my parents made it." She explained.
"Can they make one for me too?" Emi asked. Hitomi sweatdropped.
"Err…They can't…You see…My parents…" Crap.
Flashback!
"So what type of Pokémon are your parents? Jolteon, Flareon, Vaporeon, Espeon, Umbreon, Glaceon or Leafeon?" Dewdrop asked. Hitomi sweatdropped.
"I don't know." She said. Dewdrop and Hajime gasped.
"What? Does that mean your parents died before you even hatched? You poor thing!"
End!
"They can't, because my parents…" She put up a sad look and had her ears droop. "Are deceased." She sighed.
Emi gasped. "I'm so sorry! I didn't know!" She exclaimed. Hitomi shook her head and smiled.
"Nah! Not to worry. It's okay." She assured. She looked at Kami and started bouncing. "Let's go buy some Friend Areas!"
He nodded and started to bounce with her. They ran out of the base. Shine and Emi sweatdropped.
"Such energy." Emi muttered.
"I'm used to Hitomi-sensei, but Kaminari usually prefers taking it slow. It's weird."
Emi shook her head. "Nah, Kaminari-kun is very timid, but always has random bursts of energy when he's excited. Let's go!"
Hitomi stared at all of the shop. It was run by a ducklett. She considered her Pokédex, but decided that they were on serious business and the Pokédex could wait another day.
"Hi, I'm Ducklett! Are you guys a rescue team?" She asked.
Hitomi nodded. "Hai! I'm the leader, this is my team. Rescue Team Soul! The team of Love and Justice!" She chirped. Kami sweatdropped.
"Love and Justice? Where'd that come from?" He asked.
"Duh! That's what Team Soul's all about! I'm the one who set Emi-chan and P-Chan up, the three of us make the love, and we all seek justice as a rescue team!" She squealed. Emi blushed. Shine tilted her head. Kami sweatdropped.
"You are one weird girl." He sighed. Hitomi glared.
"Am not!"
"Are too!"
"Am not!"
"You are!"
Electricity cackled. Ducklett sweatdropped before laughing.
"Nothing like a good argument to show how in love a couple is!" She laughed. Hitomi sweatdropped and Kami's face turned red.
"Nani?" She asked. She shook her head. "We're here to buy some Friend Areas." She chirped.
"Oh, so this must be your first time! Okay! I'll give you three areas for free!" She cheered. "Ducklett! Ducklett! 1 2 3! Time for Friend Areas! Weeeeee!" She sang.
The group sweatdropped. Ducklett then shot a Water Gun at Hitomi, hitting her on the face and sending her rolling. She landed on her belly.
"Hey!" She snapped. Shine ran toward her and helped her up.
"Congratulations! It's now official! You have access to Evolution Forest, Snowy Forest, and Grass Meadow! Enjoy recruiting Pokémon!" Ducklett cheered. Hitomi sweatdropped.
"Sing a song then shoot me with Water Gun and now we have access to those areas?" She asked.
Ducklett nodded. "Yeah, easy right?" She asked.
"I guess." Hitomi sighed. She shook her body in attempt to dry herself off.
"Hey!" A voice called. The team and Ducklett looked toward it.
Dewdrop ran toward them.
"If you're giving away Friend Areas, can you give my friends access to Crystal Lagoon? I want to join their team!" She exclaimed.
Ducklett nodded. "Sure!" She cheered. "Ducklett! Ducklett! 1 2 3! Time for a Friend Area! Weeeee!" She shot her Water Gun at Hitomi.
Hitomi landed on her belly again. "Why do you keep doing that to me?" She groaned.
"Because you're the leader! It's my policy!" She chirped. "Congratulations! It's official! You have access to Crystal Lagoon! That's all the Friend Areas I'm giving away!" She chirped.
"I'm hoping you don't do that to Pokémon that have disadvantages to water." Hitomi muttered.
"No, for those Pokémon, I like to use my Peck attack." Ducklett chirped. "Anything else?" She asked.
Emi nodded. "Yeah, can we have access to Tiny Forest?" He asked.
"Sure! 1500 Poké please!" Emi handed over the Poké. "Ducklett! Ducklett! 1 2 3! Time for a Friend Area! WEEEEEEE!" She shot a Hydro Pump. Hitomi flew into another stand. The owner, a Levanny, helped her up.
"Ducklett?" Levanny asked.
"Yeah." Hitomi glared at Ducklett. "WHAT THE HECK WAS WITH THE HYDRO PUMP!" She snapped.
"The higher the price, the stronger the attack I'll use. Policy!" Ducklett exclaimed.
"Why you…" Hitomi began to prepare her Shadow Ball. Kami grabbed her tail and dragged her toward the builboard.
"Let's go find some missions." He sighed._
Hitomi ate a sitrus berry as she examined the builboard.
"That Ducklett has some nerve. Policy my fluffy little tail." She grumbled.
"Excuse me? Are you a rescue team?" A female voice asked. Hitomi turned around. A Serperior looked at her.
"Yes, we're Rescue Team Soul. The team of Love and Justice." She declared. Serperior nodded.
"Thank goodness. Can I ask a favor please?" She asked. Hitomi nodded. "Can you please go to Aurora Cavern? My son is in there and I can't get to him." She pleaded.
"That place is filled with ice and water Pokémon, P-Chan is a must." Kami muttered. "But what would a grass Pokémon be doing in there?" He asked.
"You see, this little Venipede here," Serperior growled, motioning to the Venipede next to her. "Dared him to."
"A Venipede?" Hitomi asked. Pokédex time!
"Venipede, the Centipede Pokémon. Venipede explores its surroundings by sensing vibrations in the air with feelers on its head and tail."
"Venipede's adorable! And your son is a…?"
"Snivy."
"Right. A Snivy." She typed something in her Pokédex.
"Snivy, the Grass Snake Pokémon. Cool, calm, and collected, Snivy uses photosynthesis to collect energy with the leaf on its tail."
"My poor baby hatched only a couple weeks ago, he isn't strong enough to fend off on his own. He can't even speak very properly!" Serperior exclaimed.
"That's terrible! Oh, and congratulations on the new baby." Hitomi chirped. Serperior nodded. "We have to take this mission!" Hitomi declared.
"Yeah, but we can only take three on this mission, you HAVE to go, P-Chan's fire ability is necessary, who will be the third?" He asked.
"While I'd rather not separate the happy couple of Hitomi-san and Kaminari, I think I should go, my Scald attack can burn those ice Pokémon." Dewdrop declared.
"But what about the water Pokémon? Kami can be of great assistance, Emi would be too…" Hitomi sighed.
"That's okay Hitomi, I don't really like the cold. It makes my fur puff up." Emi laughed.
"If you can't decide on who to take, why not just take me?" Zozo offered.
Hitomi looked at him. "I don't know…" Zozo fell over.
"What?" He shrieked.
She sweatdropped. "It's just that you only know Dark-type moves. You need a stronger variety! For example, I know Attract, Shadow Ball, Bite, Echoed Voice, and Dig." She said. Serperior blinked.
"But we Pokémon can only learn four moves at a time." She stated.
Hitomi smiled. "I guess I'm a special case." She turned to Zozo. "Anyway, I have an assignment for you." Zozo blinked. "Go to Sawk's Dojo. Kami told me that it's a great place for training. You'll be able to fight other Pokémon and find TMs. You'll be able to learn new moves."
Zozo nodded. "Yeah. I'll go there." He turned to Dewdrop and Kaminari. "But who are you taking?"
"Why don't we settle this the old fashioned way?" Kami hissed.
"Yeah. That seems to be the only way." Dewdrop hissed back.
Hitomi and Emi looked at each other. "The old fashioned way?" They asked.
"1…" Dewdrop muttered, pulling her paw back in a fist.
"2…" Kami muttered.
"3…"
"A fist fight?" Hitomi squeaked.
"Shoot!" They pulled their fists forward.
Hitomi and Emi closed their eyes. They opened them when they heard no cries of pain.
Dewdrop had her head down low, her hand holding two fingers out. Kami was smirking, his hand still in a fist.
"Ha! Rock beats sissors!" He cheered. Hitomi and Emi both fell over.
"The old fashioned way is Rock Paper Sissors?" Emi shrieked.
"You bakas!" Hitomi snapped.
"Man, I hate how cold it is here." Hitomi muttered. Kami sighed.
"You've been complaining for the past twenty minutes." He sighed.
"I can't help it! It's cold!" She whined.
"Why don't you just use your Mars Power to keep you warm?" P-Chan asked.
"What do you think I've been doing?" She asked.
"You mean you are using Mars power?" P-Chan gasped.
"Uh-huh, but it so cold here it doesn't even matter." She sighed. "How come you guys aren't cold?" She asked.
"I used to come here a lot for training, I'm used to it." Kami explained.
"And I'm a fire-type." P-Chan sighed. Hitomi nodded.
"If I'M cold, imagine how poor Snivy must feel." She muttered. She began to glow. She gasped. "OUT OF THE WAY P-CHAN!" She pushed him, causing a Water Gun to miss. They turned around to see a Panpour, smirking. "Whoa, what is that?" She pulled out her Pokédex.
"Panpour, the Spray Pokémon. Panpour lived in forests long ago, but developed a body that makes it easy to live near water. It can store water in the tufts on its head." It said.
"Wow." Kami muttered. Hitomi nodded.
"Yeah." She turned to glare at Panpour. "Wow, you must be really weak." She taunted. A vein popped on Panpour's head. "Obviously you have to be weak if you went after the one you had a type advantage over." She laughed. She got into a fighting stance. "Let's see how you do against me!" She hissed.
Panpour growled. "Panpour…" It muttered. Hitomi blinked.
"Why didn't it speak?" She asked.
"There are some wild pokémon who can't speak Hitomi." Kami whispered.
"Panpour!" Hitomi's ears perked.
"There is no room for that kind of language!" She snapped. She retained her stance. "Your move."
"Pan." Panpour shot a Water Pulse. Hitomi jumped out of the way. Panpour kept firing. Hitomi kept dodging.
She fell over. Panpour shot a really big Water Pulse toward her. It crashed where she was with a splash and a small explosion.
"Hitomi!" Kami and P-Chan called. The smoke cleared to show Hitomi wasn't there, but instead there was a hole.
"She used Dig to avoid it!" Kami gasped.
"No dip Sherlock." P-Chan muttered. Kami shocked him slightly. "Ow!"
"Pan…Panpour…" It muttered, looking around for Hitomi. Silently, she jumped out from the ground.
"BITE!" She bit Panpour's head.
"PANPOUR!" It shrieked. It ran around, trying to shake her off. Hitomi kept biting.
She noticed that Panpour was about to hit a wall. She sweatdropped and released it. She shot a Shadow Ball. Panpour got hit and hit the wall with a loud crash. She sweatdropped.
"Ooh…" She muttered. "That looked like it hurt." Panpour got up and groaned.
"Panpour…" It muttered. Hitomi got in her stance again. Panpour then fainted. Hitomi loosened up.
"I think I may have overdone it." She muttered. "P-Chan, gimme an oran berry." She said. He tossed one at her. He squared her on the head. "Ow!" She groaned. She grabbed the berry in her mouth and put it in front of the Panpour. "There. Come on guys." She ran ahead of them. They sweatdropped.
"Hitomi!"
"Dudette wait!"
Hitomi sniffed the ground. "I think I've got Snivy's scent!" She squealed. She tried to lift her head. "Um…Guys?" She asked.
"Yeah?" They said.
"Am I on ice?"
"Yeah. Why?" Kami asked.
"I think my nose is stuck." She muttered. They sweatdropped.
"You get the waist, I got the tail." P-Chan sighed.
"What are you doing?" Hitomi asked. P-Chan grabbed Hitomi's waist. Kami took her tail. "Guys?"
"One…"
"Guys?"
"Two…"
"Hello?"
"PULL!" Kami shouted.
"What?" They both pulled. "That HURTS!" She screeched.
"Again!" With one last pull, they managed to pull her off the ice. She groaned as she held her nose, tears streaming down her face.
"That hurt…" She muttered. Kami frowned. He walked up to her. He kissed her nose.
"Better?" He asked. Hitomi's face heated up as she held her nose.
"B-Better…" She muttered. They walked past her. "…I'm not cold anymore…" She muttered before running after them.
Hitomi sighed as she sniffed the ground, this time, not touching the ground.
"Where's Snivy?" She grumbled. She bumped into someone. "Sorry." She muttered.
"Grrr…" She heard. She looked up and saw a Beartic. "You better have a good reason for bumping into me girl." He growled. Hitomi's ears flattened against her head.
"KAMI!" She screeched. She hid behind him.
"Sorry Beartic, she wasn't watching where she was going." He said.
"Don't care." Beartic growled. Hitomi squeaked.
"I don't want to fight him…He's so scary…" She whispered. Kami nodded.
P-Chan stepped up. "Look dude, she said she was sorry." He sighed.
"Back off." Beartic growled. P-Chan sweatdropped and hid behind Kami.
"Why am I being used as a shield?" He asked.
"I'm the boss of this floor. You a rescue team?" Beartic growled.
"Yeah! I'm Hitomi! This is my awesome team, Rescue Team Soul! The team of Love and Justice!" She cheered. Beartic cracked his knuckles. Hitomi winced at the sound.
"Rescue Team Soul, huh?" He asked. Hitomi nodded. "Hn. What rank are ya?" He asked. Hitomi blinked.
"Rank?" She looked at Kami. He pinched the bridge of his nose.
"We're still normal rank, we're close to the bronze rank though." He sighed.
Beartic smirked. "So I see." He got in a fighting position. "So that would mean you won't be hard to beat."
The three sweatdropped. Hitomi looked at Kami. "Next time, just shut up and/or lie to the opponent Kaminari." She whispered. He nodded. They all got into fighting positions.
"I choose Agility!" Kami shouted. He appeared and dissappeared around Beartic as his speed increased drastically. He jumped. "Iron Tail!" He slammed his tail into Beartic's side. Beartic grabbed him by the tail.
"Not strong enough…" Kami squeaked. Beartic tossed him into a tree. Kami slid off the tree and landed on his back. "Ow…"
"Kami!" Hitomi gasped. She glared at Beartic. "All right." She growled. She became engulfed in fire. "MARS CHARGE!"
"Heat Crash!" She and P-Chan crashed into Beartic. He fell backwards upon impact. "Rad! Now I'll use Tackle!" P-Chan tackled Beartic, but the bear Pokémon simply swatted him away.
"Icy wind!" And P-Chan was knocked out…
"Knocked him out with one move…" Hitomi squeaked. She faced Beartic. "I gotta win this. If I faint, we'll be sent back and Snivy won't get rescued…" She muttered to herself. She took a deep breath in. "I'll have to beat him on my own." She looked up at Beartic. "Your move!" She hissed.
"Ice Beam!" He shot the cold beam at her. Hitomi dodged it. She burrowed under ground. A shadow ball shot out of the ground. Beartic shot an Ice Beam at it. More Shadow Balls shot out of the ground. "Stop playing with me girl!" He barked. Hitomi smirked. She shot out of the ground and headbutted his chin.
"Attract!" She purred. He dodged it. She gasped. "What the-?" She shrieked. "He's too fast…" She muttered. "Oh duh!" She closed her eyes and focused on the planet Jupiter. Suddenly, she began moving incredibly fast.
"You little brat!" He tried to hit her with Focus Punch, but she dodged it.
"Bite!" She bit his shoulder.
"Get off! That's my punching arm!" He snapped. Hitomi held on and bit harder. She jumped off and shot a Shadow Ball. "Ngh!"
"Echoed Voice!" She shouted. Beartic covered his ears as he took damage.
"Icicle Sphere!" Hitomi flew back and crashed into a tree. She groaned as she tried to get up.
'Gotta hang in there…If I faint…Snivy won't get rescued…' She stood and growled. "Mars Ball!" She shot the fire/ghost attack at Beartic, he took major damage.
"Take this!" A bubble came out of Beartic's mouth and popped right in front of Hitomi's face. She blinked.
"What the heck?" She asked. She shrugged. "One more Mars Ball!" She shot the attack and powered it with Mars AND Saturn power. Beartic collasped. Hitomi ran toward Kami and P-Chan. She took Reviver seeds from P-Chan's bag and stuck them in their mouths. They both woke up.
"You beat him?" Kami asked.
"Barely." Hitomi sighed.
"That's so rad Dudette!" P-Chan cheered. Hitomi smiled sheepishly. She was suddenly lifted by the tail. Beartic was holding her to his face.
"Meep!" She squeaked.
Beartic smirked. "You're pretty strong. But what are you doing in Aurora Cavern?" He asked
"We're on a rescue mission, we're searching for a Snivy." She explained.
"You'll need some assistance. The Pokémon here are almost tougher than I am." He explained. Hitomi sweatdropped.
"Some assistance would be nice." She muttered. They all walked on. Eventually…Hitomi passed out.
"Hitomi!" Kami ran up to her and shook her. "Hitomi-dear, get up." He persisted. Hitomi rolled over.
"Sure I'll have a watmel berry cookie…" She mumbled.
Beartic scratched the back of his head. "That's my fault. I hit her with my Yawn attack during our battle." He sighed. Kami and P-Chan sweatdropped. Kami picked Hitomi up and placed her on his back.
"Let's just hope she wakes up soon." He sighed. _
The team marched as they searched for Snivy.
"So how much longer do you think it will be until the dudette wakes up? Her nose is stronger than mine." P-Chan muttered as he tried to catch Snivy's scent.
"I don't know." Kami sighed, looking at the sleeping Eevee on his back. He look at Beartic. "Are there any Chesto Berries around here?"
Beartic looked forward, walking on all fours along with P-Chan, trying to catch Snivy's scent. Also he finds it more comfortable then walking on two feet.
"Yeah." He said. "There's a patch growing around here." Kami nodded. He sniffed the air.
"I think I can smell some." He said. He put Hitomi on Beartic's back. He ran around the corner. Kami came back with a Chesto Berry. "This should wake her up." He climbed onto Beartic's back and held the berry to Hitomi's mouth. "Come on Hitomi-dear eat the berry." He urged.
Hitomi's nose twitched. He held it closer to her mouth. She took a bite of it and rolled over. Her eyes opened.
"Where am I?" She asked.
"We're still in Aurora Cavern. You're on Beartic's back." Kami said, jumping off of Beartic.
Hitomi felt Beartic's fur. She smiled. She crawled onto the top of his head.
"You have soft fur Beartic-sama." She complimented.
"Thanks Peewee." He said. Hitomi smiled. She sniffed the air.
"Hey, I can smell Snivy!" She exclaimed. She sniffed again. "Snivy's in the west direction." She declared. The boys nodded and walked in the west direction. "There he is!" She said. Snivy was curled up, using his big leafy tail as a cover. He was shivering and was incredibly small. Beartic walked up to him.
"Hey kid." He said.
"H-huh?" Snivy muttered. He looked out of his ball and shrieked. "AAAAHHHH!" He screeched.
"Hey relax I ain't gonna hurt ya." Beartic said, picking Snivy up by his tail.
"Put Kairi down! PUT KAIRI DOWN!" He cried.
"That is not cool, calm, and collected." Hitomi muttered, referring to the Pokédex entry. She looked down at Beartic. "Put him down Beartic-sama." She sighed. Beartic did as told and sniffed at Snivy.
"MOMMY! HE'S GONNA EAT KAIRI!" He screeched. Beartic growled, highly offended by the accusation.
"Stop it, you're scaring him!" Hitomi snapped. She hopped off of Beartic's head and landed in front Snivy. She gently stroked his head. "Daijobu. Daijobu." She assured softly.
Snivy sniffed. "Is it?"
Hitomi smiled and nodded. "Yeah." She chirped. "You're smaller than I am." She crouched down low. "That means I should be able to carry you on my back." She chirped. Snivy looked unsure. Hitomi smiled. "Daijobu." She chirped. Snivy crawled onto her back. "See? Daijobu. It's all right." She looked at the boys. "Let's go."
"I'll lead you out." Beartic said. Hitomi nodded. She looked at the Snivy on her back. "What were you doing here?" She asked.
"Hiroki dared Kairi to come out here." He muttered.
"I'm assuming Hiroki is the Venipede?" Hitomi sighed. Snivy nodded. "I'll be sure to have a talk with him." She looked at him. "Judging by the way you talk, I'm guessing your Kairi, right?" She asked. Snivy smiled.
"Hai." He said.
"Okay then Kairi-chan, I'm Hitomi." She greeted.
"Kairi wants mommy. It's too cold here and Kairi doesn't feel well." Kairi muttered. Hitomi frowned. She stroked Kairi with her tail in effort to warm him up.
"We'll get you to your mommy as soon as we can. Just stay confident, okay Sugar?" She asked. Kairi nodded.
"Okay Hitomi-oneechama." He muttered. Hitomi smiled.
"Good boy." She said. She blinked. "Oh right!" She said. "These are my teammates." She began. "This is Kaminari." She said, motioning to Kami. "And that's P-Chan." She said.
"Hey there." Kami greeted.
"Yo." P-Chan said.
"And this is Beartic-sama." Hitomi chirped. "We just met him."
Kairi looked at them all. "Hi." He muttered unenthusiatically. They blinked.
Beartic glared at him. "Try being polite kid." He barked.
Kairi squeaked and covered his eyes. Hitomi glared at Beartic.
"Don't pick on him. He's just a little kid!" She snapped. Beartic looked away.
"Whatever you say Peewee." He muttered. Hitomi narrowed her eyes. She stroked Kairi's head with her tail.
Kami smiled. He walked up to them. "So Kairi, why did you listen to Hiroki when he dared you to come out here? It's dangerous." He asked.
"Because Hiroki is Kairi's friend." Kairi explained. Hitomi shook her head.
"A real friend wouldn't dare you to do something as dangerous as going to a mystery dungeon where Pokémon have an advantage over you." She sighed.
"Really?" He asked. Hitomi nodded.
"Yeah. If Hiroki ever does something like that again, be sure to say no and talk to your parents about it, or tell me if you feel it's necessary." She sighed. Kairi nodded. Beartic looked up.
"It's late. You'll have to camp here tonight." He muttered. Hitomi nodded.
"Sure. Is that okay with you Kairi-chan?" She asked. Kairi nodded. "Okay, but let's find someplace not as exposed to the cold. I don't think Kairi-chan will be able to stand this cold much longer." She muttered, looking at the shivering Snivy on her back. The boys nodded.
"Hai." They said in unison.
Team Soul and Beartic managed to find a cave that could fit all of them.
Hitomi frowned as she watched Kairi shiver. She stroked his head.
"Too cold…" He murmured.
Hitomi frowned. The small Snivy was cuddled into her side, she insisted as he seemed to trust her more than the others. She closed her eyes and focused on Mars.
"Oneechama, you got warm all of a sudden." He muttered. Hitomi smiled.
"That's my Mars power working Sugar. It should warm us both up, no worries." She chirped.
Kairi nodded. Hitomi covered him with her tail slightly. They soon both fell asleep. Kami smiled as he rested against the wall.
"Hitomi sure is doing well at taking care of Kairi." He sighed.
"Yeah. Isn't it weird?" P-Chan asked.
"What?" Kami asked.
"Kairi keeps calling her oneechama, but she seems to naturally act like a mother figure rather than a big sister figure." P-Chan observed. "I don't even think she's trying to."
Kami smiled. "Yeah…" He whispered.
"Hey man, what are you thinking right now?" He asked. Kami's face turned red. "Ah dude, you're already thinking of that? You haven't even asked her out!" P-Chan gasped.
"No no! I mean…NO!" Kami shrieked. "I mean it would be great to have a…" He trailed off.
"You kids are too young to be thinking of that." Beartic muttered. He was on his side, his head rested on his paw as he stared out of the cave. "Judging by P-Chan's statement, Peewee isn't even aware of your feelings for her." He assumed.
"No she isn't." Kami muttered. "She's a little…Uh…"
"Dense?"
"WHO CALLED ME DENSE!" Hitomi barked.
"No one. Go back to sleep Peewee."
"Okay." She passed out. Beartic sweatdropped.
"What a weird girl."
"She may be the smallest of our team, but Hitomi is very sensitive, and can be incredibly intimidating when it comes to the 'd word'." Kami sighed. Beartic nodded.
"So I see." He stated. He scratched his chin. "So, how do you know Peewee?" He asked.
"I found her in a forest knocked out. She had a severe case of amnesia, and had no memory of anything, not even her name. So I gave her the name Hitomi. Actually, I have no idea if that's her real name or not. She seems to respond to the name Hoshi whenever we meet up with our rival team, Team Disaster. The leader seems to have trouble remembering her name." Kami explained. "For all we know, Hoshi could be her real name or she's just aware that they're talking to her. She never corrects him. She's gaining lots of memories back, but once she's completely free of amnesia, I'll be sure to ask."
Beartic looked at Hitomi. "Huh. That's quite a background." He said. He laid down. "Well then boys, go to sleep, you'll need rest." He sighed. The boys blinked before nodding and falling asleep minutes later.
