The next day Keita told his mom about the new tail then discussing what to do.
"What do we do about school?" Keita asked as his new tail seemed to wag.
"I don't know, For now just keep it a secret until we figure out what's going on
"Got it!"
"At least let me put your tail before you go back to normal!" His sister pleaded
"For the last time! No!" He growled then stepping up and putting on a tight hat that hid the ears and tucked in his shirt to hide the tail. The hat had to be tight otherwise it could easily pop off
"Alright, I'm ready to go to school, C'mon Katie, And remember don't tell anyone about the ears or tail!"Keita said with a glare
"A-alright I promise"
"C'mon you two, You'll be late for the bus"The mother warned giving the two their lunches and backpacks
"Bye Mom!" They said together then leaving for the bus.
About 30 minutes later the Bus arrived at the School so that way they could head to their classes.
"Alola!Everyone"Professor Kukui appeared into the room then seeing the hat" Keita, Please take the hat off," He said
"I'd...rather not..." He said worried, starting the sweat a bit.
"Take it off or I will," He said sternly
"Okay, Okay fine!" Keita swiped it off then everyone saw the ears
K-Keita? W-what on earth happened to you?!"Sun asked trying not to laugh until the moon hit his arm with her elbow as if to say"Knock it off!"
"Are those real?" Hau asked standing up to poke them but the ear jerked out of the way to dodge it
"Huh, that's new," He thought as it wiggled a bit.
"W-Woah, How'd you do that!" Sun asked starting to wonder about it as well.
"Alright alright calm down, We can figure this out later" He tried to get the class under control but was also confused about Keita's current state.
"Alright, but since everyone knows might as well do this." He sighed then raised the bottom of his shirt, Untucking it which revealed the tail.
"Wait you've got a tail too!?" Pro. Kukui said out loudly on accident. He sounded like he was calm earlier, But now he was kinda freaking out.
"Y-yeah, Kinda...I'm not really certain what's goi-" His nose tingled for a second then sneezing. As he sneezed a smoke cloud poofed around him. The dust started to settle allowing everyone to see that Keita was gone and all that remained was a collapsed Eevee
"H-huh, I-is that Keita?!" Hau asked as Professor Kukui picked it up and checked it's a pulse.
"It's alive, but we might want to get some medicine from Keita's bag, He should have an awakening," He said placing it down on one of the desks then reaching for his bag. Inside were a variety of labeled jars full of potions and medicine"Let's see...Potion, Antidote, Burn heal, Full heal. That should work"He pulled it out then grabbed a plastic spoon used to serve the medicine. Dipping it into the jar he then pulled a spoon full of medicine and putting it into its mouth so it would wake up
"Hey why'd ya have to wake me up, I was having a good dream, And what's with the weird look?" Keita asked who seemed to now be an Eevee
"Keita...I-is that you?" Moon asked backing up.
"Yeah, Who'd you think it was-Wait a minute, I'm an Eevee aren't I?"Keita said with a sigh jumping down from the desk. Everyone nervously nodded
"Well since I'm an Eevee, Might as well see what I can do. Hey Rotom!" Rotom is Keita's pokédex. It flew out of his bag then said
"Alola Keit-Huh, W-where'd he go?"
"I'm down here!" The Eevee spoke surprising Rotom" Yeah, I'm an Eevee now!"
"Zrtt does not compute! Does Not Compute, Sequence illogical!" He said trying to find any way it would be possible.
"Calm down Rotom, But can you look up legends or myths of turning into Pokémon."
"Wait I know about that!" Moon said loudly pulling a book of Myths and Legends then rapidly flipping to a page that showed the stick Keita swung around.
"Hey wait a minute!" Keita said jumping up to the chair the struggled to get onto the desk, just barely making it up as Moon placed it down on the desk so Keita could see it"That's the stick I found in the forest." Keita noticed"It was perfectly straight and smooth, Unlike any stick in the forest. And it had Unown symbols on it that I couldn't read."
"Why do you always mess with stuff you don't know about!?" Rotom asked getting into Keita's face
"Well, how else am I supposed to learn if I never experience it!"
"Why do you think School was invented!"By now the two were in each other's face practically touching. Occasionally the two had argued over small stupid mistakes Keita made with the two having different learning styles, Keita usually learned from experience and has often had his medicine give a bad taste or smell while Rotom just downloaded information.Soon Keita's sister, Katie, entered the room
"Big Brother you forgot you lun-"She instantly saw the Eevee
"It's so cute who's Eevee is it, Can I cuddle it?" She asked with stars in her eyes
"For the last time, No!" Keita said jumping down from Rotom's level
"Wow, Now you're an Eevee!" She lept over trying to hug him on the ground but Keita jumped onto her head then bounced off it onto another desk
"I said hands off!"Keita got surprised by Sun who picked him up from under his legs so he couldn't fight back"Hey Put me down!" Keita tried swiping but his stubby little legs weren't long enough as he was put into Katie's arms
"Here you go"Katie smiled then squeezed Keita in a hug
"Help! Can't Breathe!" He Tried jumping out but that girl had an iron grip.
"Hey, Katie Can you put him down please?" Moon asked sweetly as Katie loosened her grip and put him down
"Thanks, Moon, Oh and Hey Rotom, Is there a way for me to turn back to normal?"Keita asked dodging another hug from Katie.
"Well, If you got the stick again, There might be a way to reactivate it to turn you back to normal." He said looking up a page, It was just a legend and Rotom wasn't sure about whether it would work or not.
"Well I hope so, but we might be able to find it in the woods, we should head there now.
As everyone grabbed some water bottles and their stuff
"Alright, is everyone ready?"Professor Kukui asked as Keita tried to pull his satchel using his mouth" Uh...Do you need help with that?"He asked picking up the bag
"T-thanks Professor" Keita knew it would be a little far but he knew the way
"So which way is it?" Kukui asked
"Follow me, This is the way I take every day, I live in Iki town so it's a bit far, "He said leading the way.
After an hour of walking, they made it where he had found it seeing another with the stick as they looked at its symbols.
" Is this the one, Guzma will be happy to know it's been found"
"Team Skull, Guys step back and stay quiet, You too Keita" The teacher had spoken seeing he was already close to the girl that had pink hair and a short tank top.
"Put down the stick! If you aren't careful you'll turn into a Pokémon" He warned but then got scared and took a step back and slipping on a few leaves.
"Let me guess you turned into one," She asked with a glare to make him speak the truth.
"Y-yes that's correct" He gulped starting to sweat as the girl had picked him up by his ears.
"Well I needed proof so I guess you'll do," She said as Keita began swiping with his small stubby little limbs.
"Kukui throw the sleep powder from my bag!"He said then holding his breath letting Kukui do as instructed. The girl let go of Keita falling back asleep as Keita grabbed the stick using his mouth.
" Sorry about that!"He then said afterward as the group began running towards the school
"Why on earth would you say sorry after she pulled both of your ears and nearly kidnapped you" Moon had said shocked by his words.
"Don't you mean, Pokénapped" Sun chimed in as Moon punched him in the arm"Still worth it"
"S-sorry, I just felt bad for using sleep powder on her"
"Don't worry it was in the name of Self defense" Hau tried helping his
"T-thanks but I should probably tell my mom what happened," He said trying to pull a phone out of his bag using his stubby paws, however, it kept slipping out of his grasp"C-can someone calls my mom for me?"He nervously asked not usually needing help and working on his own
"Sure Keita" Kukui lifted the flip phone from his bag then dialing his mom's numbers and placing the phone next to his ears
"H-hi Mom so Eevee happened"
"You're completely an Eevee huh"
"Y-yeah it's a bit embarrassing," It would have seemed like he was flustered if he didn't have fur but it was still easy to see just from his eyes and drooping ears.
"Have Rotom help you learn some moves so you can defend yourself" His mother then said"And don't speak in public" Keita nodded as Rotom came out of his bag
"I'll Be sure to help, You should know Tackle and tail whip zrt!" He said showing Eevee's pokédex data
"O-okay Never thought I'd have to fight..."
"Hey come outside There should be a training bag in the stadium," Kukui said walking out as Keita followed behind. Once they had gotten outside Keita saw a whole training area set up, He had never been out back there usually working on medicine during Recess.
"Alright first try tackle, Rotom keep track of his data, got it?," Kukui said pointing towards the dummy.
"Wait are you just my trainer now or something?" He looked back at his teacher.
"It's just so you can blend in as a normal Eevee. Once you're back to normal we never have to speak of this again."
"A-alright then...Here goes nothing" He bolted towards the training dummy using the weight of his body to attempt to deal damage but bounced off without it budging one bit"Ow...My head..."He groaned looking up at his dex
"Attack data confirmed, Level: 0.5, "It said showing a thumbs down on its screen
" Oh jeez, we're going to have to do a lot of training..."He sighed as the School bell rang meaning School had ended.
"Well we can start off again tomorrow, For now, We should keep Keita safe," He then called Keita's mom"Would it be alright if some of my students could watch over Keita, I want to get multiple sets of data for his current situation"
"It all depends on what Keita himself says about it"
"I-I guess it'll be alright," He said a little nervous, Technically that would be his first time at someone else's house"At least that means I don't have to worry about Katie"
"Then he's allowed to go, Have fun Nurse Keita"
"Mom please don't call me that..."
"Alright then just stay safe" She hung up, setting the phone down with a light breath out"I hope he'll be okay..."
"Who wants to have Keita go with them first?"
Moon raised her hand"I'll do it! I want to be the one to solve the mystery"
"Okay then, Are you okay with it Keita?"
"I-I guess so."
"Alright, Keita you go with Moon and We'll start back again tomorrow"
Everyone began packing your bags as Moon picked up Keita in her arms then waving to her friend's goodbye as she left to head to a small cottage by Route one.
