This is the part where Lightning's nightmare began. Please read and review.

Lightning's POV

I couldn't sleep all night. My eyes were red due to my devoid of sleep but I ignored it because of my worries. It couldn't be true that she wasn't drooling all the time the previous day. I didn't see her, drooling during the battle. What if I didn't notice since I was too focused on battle… no, that couldn't be true. I just couldn't be worrying now. Besides, she may not be over two years old….. But what if she was? Cut it out, Lightning. Stop worrying... Now Jeffery had even chained us up during night before of Floret's attempt to escape. I shouldn't be thinking about that now. We were so close just because of the chain. The sun was slowly rising. It was dawn. Did I really remain awake that long? Maybe it must have been because I was so worrying that I didn't notice. I started to walk but I stopped as I heard the chain's ringing sound which showed that it had reached its limited length. I had to get away as far as I could from Floret or otherwise my life would be doomed.

I flinched as Floret slowly opened her eyes. I observed her for a moment to know whether I was in danger or not. She slowly got up, not showing her face yet. I was starting to sweat again but I ignored it. Her condition was more important than mine since it would effect on my life. One of her ears twitched and I flinched more. Her nose sniffed something.

"I think I smelled a male." She said and slowly showing her face. Her eyes were not normal and she had a wide grin, showing all of her teeth which in turn made her look scary.

"I found a male." She said excited as she laughed. This was definitely THE FEVER!! She was definitely in that period. She ran towards me and pinned me to the ground with her paws on my stomach where there were no quills.

"You really look cute." She said, smiling in satisfaction, causing me to swallow a gulp and whimpered. This was not good and it was impossible for me to elude this for two months. She would get close to every male she saw. Every male…. An idea struck into my head. If I led her to male, she would only chase that male. I shivered as she licked in my face. Yuck…. This was catastrophic. If it was Lilly, I could bear it but her licking me, disgusting! If I knew this would happen, I should've never brought her back!

"Come on, let's mate." She said, slowly reaching her lips towards mine. I kicked her into the stomach and stood up quickly. I stayed myself in the corner, not showing any openings for her to flirt with me. But she got under my arm with force and nuzzled my face with her head. I shoved her away but she only came back. I should start my plan now. So I slowly walked towards the door and pushed it open. As expected, Floret followed me. Jeffery depended on me so much for security that he never locked his door, except when both of us were out.

I started to scan around the area and found that no one was awake yet. I signed, not knowing what to do with this female, trying to get my attention now by nipping my ears and looking at me playfully with those abnormal eyes. Suddenly a scary face appeared in front of me and I fell on my back due to sudden fear. Then I realized that it was Skull so I didn't comment. I quickly stood up on my feet, not wanting to be pinned down and licked. But still she kept on showing affections towards me.

"Yo ho ho ho… sorry, Lightning. I come today to tell you one thing." He said. He glanced at me and noted the affectionate umbreon. He quickly flew backwards.

"Skull, why did move away from me?" I inquired even though I knew the answer.

"Well, if I got near her, it could've been dangerous and I want to keep single life." He said and laughed creepily again with that "yo ho ho ho". Why did he laugh like that?

"I come to inform you the recent news. The two pokemons, known as the powerful ones, have been vanished." He said and I blinked. They really did die, no way. Judging from what he told me before, they seemed to be really strong.

"How?" I asked.

"Yo ho ho ho… I will tell you, my friend but it ain't gonna be pretty." He said and I paid attention to him. I shivered as Floret licked my cheek. But I ignored it since I knew that I had no time for that.

"Well, only five, including me, know about this. I was happened to be in the neighborhood that time and heard some unusual fighting indeed. So I camouflaged myself and went to the battlefield and saw those two, fighting each other. Oracle and Legion were both powerful indeed. At last, Legion managed to defeat Oracle and kill her." He said. I couldn't believe what I was hearing. When I first heard their names, I was inspired by them but I'd never known that they were enemies.

"However, I traced Legion and another vulpix by my sense and found out where they were headed in their teleportation. I flew there quickly but when I arrived, I could see the poor vulpix, being tormented, near the dead body of Legion, by a sableye. I decided not to watch anymore since it was getting uglier and uglier." He said. So a sableye killed Legion. Legion must have been exhausted at that time since I knew that he was pretty powerful enough. I received another lick in my face and I shoved Floret away.

"Anyway, do you know a remedy for this?" I asked impatiently.

"Yo ho ho ho.. There is no remedy, my friend. But I will tell you something. Show her affection. As long as you don't get kissed, you are okay. Bye now." He said, fading away. So I had to show this night-hunter affections? Impossible!!

"Oh, handsome, can you lay me a kiss on my lips?" Floret said, blinking her eyes affectionately.

"NO!" I snapped and growled. I stomped back into the house and she followed again. I noted that Jeffery and Tom were awake. They gave me our breakfast. I started to fill my hungry stomach and I noted that Floret was doing the same. At least, she still did her normal habitual thing. As soon as she finished her breakfast, she started to flirt with me again!

"Do you believe what am I seeing?" Jeffery said and Tom nodded.

"That's one good girl. They finally get along." He said. No, we weren't. I will have to get rid of her somehow.
