Disclaimer: I own nothing but San and the plot
A/N: I'll keep my poll up for another few days then it'll be decided which pokemon San's Eevee becomes. R&R please.
Latios's POV:
I sat on the log by the campfire with Jirachi sleeping on my lap, watching Latias sitting, laughing with the humans. San was next to me with her egg. All her pokemon were eating a few metres away with the human's pokemon. I stayed on guard in case Latias slipped up, but so far none of the humans suspected anything. San came up with a pretty convincing story involving us losing our ability to speak in a car accident and the humans seemed to just believe it. I saw that boy looking over at us every now and then, I think San said his name was Felix. After a few minutes he wandered over and sat next to San,
" so... how long have you known Maddie and Jack?" He asked.
" Most of my life. Why?" San replied, she was still slightly cold when talking to the humans. Felix shrugged,
" just wondering." He said. I tuned out to the rest of their conversation and started listening to the sounds of the forest instead. It was just as active at night as it was during the day. I didn't notice San get up and walk into the woods with Felix, until I heard sounds of distress and fear. I jumped up and ran into the woods after leaving Jirachi sleeping on the log.
Latias's POV:
I silently laughed at Jodie's story of how she caught her Glaceon, the one San and Roserade battled. A few seconds later I looked up as Latios bolted into the woods, in the same direction as San and Felix had went.
" what's up with your brother?" Jodie asked. I shrugged, wondering the same thing.
" Do you want to go see?" She then asked, but I shook my head. Latios had a good reason for every move he made, I knew something was going on in the woods and it would be safer for the humans to stay here.
San's POV:
It was peaceful in the woods as I walked with Felix, away from the noises of the other humans and Latias. I wasn't exactly sure why I agreed to come with Felix, but I wasn't regretting it either. At least not until I heard the angry hissing noise. I stopped, making Felix stop too,
" what it is?" He asked.
" Shh! don't you hear that?" I hissed quietly. He listened and his eyes widened when he heard it.
" we should get out of here." He whispered but I shook my head,
" stay perfectly still." I ordered and thankfully he listened to me. I kept my eyes focused on the moving shadow that was slightly darker than the shadows around it. The shadow reared up and looked directly at us, it's red eyes gleaming. It had seen us and it was angry.
" forget what I said. Move backwards very slowly, towards camp." I whispered. We both started doing that, but the pokemon followed. When it started moving faster, I cried out
" Run!" We didn't get very far when Felix tripped over a tree root. I stopped beside him, glaring at the approaching shadow. The moonlight shone down on it as it got closer and I realised it was an Arbok. It bared it's fangs as it raced towards us. I ducked and turned away in fear, as I waited for it's attack.
" San! Look!" I looked up when I heard Felix's voice to see a very very brief glimpse of Latios through the trees before he jumped forward, now in human form, onto the Arbok's thick, hooded neck. The Arbok thrashed around, trying to get him off.
' get the human out of here San!' Latios hissed telepathicly as the Arbok slammed it's back into a tree, forcing Latios to let go as he clenched his teeth, trying not to cry out. I grabbed Felix's hand and pulled him. He ran with me but looked back,
" what about Jack?" He called to me,
" leave him! He'll be fine!" I replied, running faster.
Latios's POV:
The Arbok slammed it's back into the tree to try and get me off. I automaticly let go as pain shot through my body. The Arbok hissed and reared. As I watched San run off with her human friend I rolled to the side to avoid it's fangs. I got up and jumped far enough back to actually use some attacks. I'd turned into my proper form to get here faster then went back to human just as I entered the clearing so I'm pretty sure the human didn't notice. I dodged a poison fang from the Arbok then turned back to normal to fight. I flew up and used Ice beam. It was a direct hit, but the Arbok twisted and bit hard into my wing with a poison fang. I yelped in pain as the poison spread through my body. I knew I needed to get this battle over with quickly so I used Luster Purge to faint the Arbok. I turned human again now in case I didn't have the energy to do it when I got back and ran as fast as I could towards camp. The poison was spreading faster than I would've liked. Within a few minutes I was panting with exhaustion and my vision kept blurring. My veins felt like they were on fire and I was starting to slow down. Eventually I saw the campfire and I was beyond relieved. I prayed to Arceus I would make it there before my legs gave out.
Latias's POV:
I was worried. San told us all about what happened in the woods with the Arbok, but left out some bits that she only told me telepathicly. I was relieved she was ok, but was afraid for my brother. San and Felix had got back fifteen minutes ago and there was still no sign of him. I was pacing up and down the campsite until I heard someone gasp in shock and horror. I spun round and my eyes widened. I gave out a silent scream; Latios was standing at the edge of the campsite, holding onto a tree branch for support. He was incredibly pale, his eyes were bloodshot and his hands were shaking. He took a step forward then his legs gave out and he hit the ground hard, closing his eyes.
" Latios!" San yelled without thinking as me and her ran to him, leaving the other humans staring in horror and fear.
