"There's something here that you can't see, right?"

-Pokemon

Mac awoke to the sound of footsteps and some mutterings. It wasn't at Mac, but actually in the next cell over. But his nightmare while he was asleep, if having a disturbed feeling makes it a night, was still haunting him when he was awake. Faking his state of consciousness, Mac kept his eyes closed as he continued to think about the nightmare. He was in some dungeon or cave, he couldn't really tell. The entire place was covered with a dark black fog, still capable of seeing but very scary looking. The walls, floor, and ceiling all seemed to have been painted with some random color of a very dark purple and black mixed. Mac, who glowed a bright white color, was walking through there, going up and down, left and right, no exact directions or any alternative choices.

"She hasn't waken up when she usually does," the familiar voice of Blake said to somebody.

"Okay then, we'll see to it that she gets cured," a man replied, unfamiliar to Mac. A little bit after that, the door shut.

Opening his eyes, Mac saw that the bed in front of him was empty where Zev was to sleep. Getting up and out, Mac went towards David and Blake's cell, where the three boys were looking at Mac now. "You missed them," David told Mac what was going on, "Kai is sick, and she doesn't respond at all. She has a pulse, they were sure of that, but she is usually the one who wakes up first."

Mac just nodded, so now this day and probably the next few were going to be slightly quieter without Kai.


The rest of the day was quieter, and actually a bit boring. David and Blake continued to practice their morphing ability, but keeping quiet as well. Zev just watched them in silence, not much to do if David and Blake weren't in the mood for talking. Mac himself laid on his mattress, thinking of everything now. Zev seemed very happy now with David and Blake who around his age, Zev no longer seemed to talk to Mac that much. The shape shifting, not only Zev, but also got Mac wanting to get the treatment done and over with. The only problem was that he couldn't imagine them trusting Mac. They would probably do it for Zev if they really intended to, but that was because Zev would just be an Umbreon. Mac himself would be a Lugia, one that they would probably fear because of his powers.

But one thing was still bugging him, Kai's sudden sickness. If it was a cold, it wouldn't make sense. As a little kid, Mac could remember exposing even something like a bed while sleeping makes you get sick for a day, but being older it wasn't a big deal if you slept without a blanket. So how was Kai sick? Did she catch something that he or Zev brought in? Blake and David don't appear affected and even Kass would have done something about it. So what was Kai sick of? Mac gave a sigh, he couldn't think of anything.

As the day continued on, Zev took his first shower for the first time since they gotten there. Blake himself practiced trying to do Flamethrower, but instead ends up with very weak flames. David couldn't try digging because he feared Kass would get mad at him for tearing up the place. Just to escape boredom for a little while, Mac kept taking showers.

By the time they got back from dinner, a box was set right in the middle of the hall. "I guess they have arrived," David said as he opened it to show the clothes. They started digging through it, pulling out what came with all the lists again. It was just humorous to Mac, how someone who hasn't been in the outside world could possibly guess what people did and didn't wear. David and Blake weren't to surprised at theirs, a tan t-shirt for David and a dark red one for Blake, both with jeans and new shoes. But Mac was at least happy he or Zev weren't going to be light bulbs with the clothes. Zev's was also a black t-shirt with jeans with a hole sowed in, and black shoes and socks for the very first in a long time. Mac was similar as well, a white t-shirt, jeans as well with a bigger hole, as well white and blue stripped shoes and socks.

Two other things stood out. There were two pairs of boxers, both for Mac and Zev. Not wanting to know how, but Mac guessed that Kai figured out that Dorjan only gave a shirt and pants. But the other thing that stood out was that there was nothing left for Kai. "They probably have on hold since she is sick and all," Mac thought to himself.

But with the clothes, the four took turns putting them on, one in the bathroom and the other in a cell while the others were in the middle starring at the wall so they don't accidentally see something.. Zev went into the bathroom while Blake went in the front cell. While David and Mac waited, Mac asked, "So how frequently do they do this?"

"About every week," David answered as a Sandshrew morph, "They apparently give magazines to the girls at lunch, so they almost know the outside world fashion. So do you think Kai and the other girls got it?"

Mac shook his head, "Not sure, I don't even know what the outside world is like, just for a little while." Just saying that reminded him of Hope and her grandmother. Mac couldn't see any fashion or anything that talked about the outside world with them, but apparently they did show what the area they live in was (mountain life.)

"Mac?" Zev said as he came out of the bathroom, "Are these jeans suppose to do this?" Zev was holding his jeans up.

"They are suppose to do that," David replied, "I don't know why, but they are suppose to. Just keep your shirt over it." Zev let go of his loose jeans that only showed a little of his boxers, then put his shirt over it.

Mac then took the bathroom and started to change, Zev took a seat by David who was waiting on Blake to finish. "So what is it like to change into a Pokemon, human, and a Pokemorph at will?" Zev asked.

David knew that Zev was wanting to do that kind of thing by the way he watched. "Pretty cool actually," David replied, "I mean, it is annoying becoming human or Pokemorph to Pokemon. Your clothes no longer fit you and when you need to change back, you have to get all your clothes back on unless…yeah you know."

"Yeah, yeah," Zev muttered.

"Okay, I'm done!" Blake said as he came back changed. David got up and turned into his human form while Blake also took a seat by Zev, starring at the wall. "So tell me, why are you an Umbreon morph?" Blake asked.

"Huh?" Zev didn't understand the question.

"I mean, I can be a Growlithe, right? And David is a Sandshrew, but Mac and Kai don't count…So why are you part Pokemon that is stronger and still about our age?" Blake explained it better.

"Oh! Yeah, actually it was just a little luck. You see, when they did me, they had an Umbreon DNA that was about my age (I think in Umbreon years) and just did that. Being power hungry freaks and all…"

Blake was silent for a moment, about to ask his next question when Mac came out. Seeing that David wasn't there, he also took a seat and waited on David. "You were about to say?" Zev asked.

"Oh, nothing. Just forget it."

Shortly after, David finished as well. "Were you talking about me?" he asked, jumping on wrong conclusions.

"No," Zev answered for Blake. Mac didn't understand what they were talking about.


Guess what kids! Okay, I'm joking there but seriously, guess what? I am randomly going to be adding bonus chapters! Okay, to help the people with the confused look on their face, I'll explain what I mean. A bonus chapter will contain something from a character's past, mostly Mac since he is the oldest character. Don't worry, I will tell you every little information you will need to know. Also, this will be completely random.

Now for other news. First off, if you thought I was taking forever to make a chapter, you haven't seen anything. It is now going to take longer with more camps coming up. For example, Cross Country Camp. Sometimes I will have some access to a computer, others I will have no access. Then after that, school! (What we all love! Not really…)
