Wake up. Who is that? More who want to harm the little one.
Don't let them.
I shot open my eyes and pushed aside the headache it gave me when I heard people enter my room. Three voices, maybe four. Alice was there. And they were getting louder, and closer.
What will they do? Protect the little one. She has to. What if she fails? What if they won't leave.
Make them.
"-it's perfectly natural for the mother to find a nest; riolu are no different."
I didn't recognize that voice, and it scared me. Why would Alice let someone new into my room?
"I'm just worried." That was Alice. "Lucy didn't eat today."
"If I may ask, when was the egg last checked?"
"Last week, if I remember correctly. Is that right Alice?" My ears perked. Alice's dad? Gentleman? "As I mentioned before, we have a Pokémon nurse on the premises-"
"-but Lucy won't let us near her egg."
"...I see. The simple solution would be to recall the Pokémon to her Pokéball. In this case however, I recommend you capture her."
"Y-you mean a Pokémon battle?"
My heart started beating faster. Don't worry little one. I inched closer, making sure to put myself between the door and my egg.
"No. A Pokéball allows about three seconds; long enough to get her out. Use it, then have your leafeon use Sleep Powder if she escapes."
"Go on Alice. We need to be sure."
I watched the door slide open carefully and eyed Alice when she peeked in, planting my feet just in case.
Protect it. No one goes near it. They all lie!
But Alice was good to me; I can't hurt her.
What if she takes it away? I can't trust anyone. She's moving closer. Come no closer! I growled when she was in reach, charging a Force Palm just in case. Just stay away Alice.
She has to protect it. No one else will. Alice won't. She lies.
She wants what's best for me.
Then why is she coming closer?
"Stay away!" I growled, swatting her arm away. She looked so hurt. But I can't let you come near. I'm sorry.
"Lucy…" I saw tears. "I'm sorry." She suddenly touched me with a ball and I went to dreamland.
Dreamland?
Where am I? It's dark.
The egg! Where is it?! Where is it, where is it, where IS IT?!
No one touches it!
The light hit me, making me dizzy.
"Quick!"
It was blurry and I growled loud, rubbing an eye. Was that… Hazel? What was going on?! "Stay away from it!" I screamed, trying to get back to the little one as fast as I could.
"I'm sorry Lucy."
I smelled something sweet and I got sleepy as I fought to stand. "Stay… away... I-I…" It went dark.
