Chapter 21!
Mud
Mud finished her treatment and stepped back to check out her handiwork. The Spearow's breathing had slowed down a bit however his wing still looked bad. Mud bit her lip hoping she did the right thing.
"My baby!" The Pigeot pushed Mud out of the way and looked over her child."I'm sorry," said Mud, "I used herbs to help heal the infection but I don't have anything on me to help him sleep better."
The Pigeot turned to Mud, tears in her eyes, "Oh thank you. Keni never looked this peaceful in his suffering." Mud blinked, surprised by the praise.
"So why are you in the holding room?" wondered Kau.
"Holding room?"
"This is the room where the suspicious Pokemon are kept," explained the Pigeot wiping the tears from her eyes, "Like members of the Resistant Army."
"Like me," said Kau, "The Electabuzz sleeping over there is also from the Army. The Poliwag is a suspected member-"
"I am a member!" snapped the Poliwag, getting down from her bed.
Kau rolled his eyes, "Just stop it. You're too young."
"Ummm," began Mud, "I am sort a member." Kau stared at her and Mud continued, "My friend Blade is the heir to the throne so…"
"No way," Kau's mouth broke out into a grin, "The heir was found? The heir is found!" He collapsed onto a nearby bed, "This is a day to remember." He got up, "Who is he? How is he like?"
The Poliwag shook the Electabuzz awake and explained what Mud had said. He sat up and waited for Mud to saw something. Mud blushed, unused to the attention. "Uh well," she began.
Blade & Torch
Torch was pacing around while Blade sat on the ground, with Plus sitting next to him. "I hope Sar doesn't eat us or anything like that," gulped Torch.
"Why would he eat us?" asked Blade, "In case you forgot he needs us, wait I mean me alive." Blade shrugged, "He might eat you though."
Torch became pale and fell to the ground, "Nooooooo! I wanna live!"
Plus heard a noise and got to her feet, "They're coming," she said.
"NO!!" screamed Torch, running into the bushes, "I don't want to be eaten!"
Blade rolled his eyes and waited for Sar. Thunder walked towards them while Sar landed from above. Hydra and Lena climbed off Sar's back. "Blade!" Lena ran over and hugged Blade tightly, "I was so worried!"
Torch butted between the two of them, "Now. Now Lena. This is not the time to do something like this," snapped the Torchic angrily.
Lena blinked in surprise as she was pushed back, "Oh. Do you not do these kinds of things in the village you live in?"
"Yeah," snapped Torch before Blade could say anything.
Sar chuckled, before turning serious, "Alright then. We have a serious situation here from what I heard from Thunder." He turned to the camp, "Well. I was going to raid it soon anyway."
"Why?" wondered Plus.
"We sent in some Resistant Army members are in there," explained Thunder, "And it is vital we get them out before someone realizes they are Resistant Army members as they will probably be executed on the spot."
"Hydra?" asked Sar, "What do you think?"
"I think we should just barge right in," said Hydra, "There is no way we can sneak in because of all the security."
Lena nodded in agreement and turned to Blade, "You okay with the plan?"
"Why are you asking me?" wondered Blade.
"You're the rightful king," pointed out Plus, "You have the right to command us."
Blade groaned. Being the king was so annoying. "I'm fine with the plan," he said.
"Good," growled Sar, "As soon as other members get here we will enter." He thought for a second, "They should be here in an hour or two."
"An hour!" complained Torch, "We need to save Mud now!"
"You can't disobey Sar," said Lena, "You all did it once already."
Torch narrowed her eyes and stuck out her tongue at Lena, "I hate you."
Mud
"He seems like an interesting Pokemon," commented the Poliwag, who Mud had learned was named Whirl. The Electabuzz was Elic, and the Pigeot was Mara.
Mud nodded, "He is a pretty good guy."
"So?" asked Whirl, "Are you two dating or anything like that?"
"Whirl!" scolded Mara, as Mud turned red at the thought.
"I'm a healer," explained Mud quickly, "So I am not allowed to mate, but I think me friend likes him so I hope the two of them will be happy together."
"You're such a nice kid," commented Kau.
The door opened and the Machamp that had held Mud came in. He pointed to Mud, "Come here girl." When Mud didn't move the Machamp stepped into the room, "I said come with me."
"Sorry," said Kau, getting up from the bed he was on, his horn glowing, "But I don't want to know what you are going to do to this kid."
