note i dont own pokemon
Tamao sighed and glanced out the window. It was just another day in the nursery. A total of 1'600 Pokémon eggs came in. Luckily Tamao ran the nursery with her sister Sylvia. They also had a secret. They had Pokémon D.N.A coursing through their veins and they could transform into two eeveelutions, Umbreon and Sylveon. Now one day a particular guest came to the nursery. It was Diancie (but they don't know). "Hi how can we help you" Sylvia asked kindly. "My name is Diana and I would like a job". The stranger replied sharply. Tamao (who was eavesdropping) rushed from the ice Pokémon room "You must be examined to see if you're trustworthy" she spat. With this Sylvia rushed forward and seized Tamao and asked Diana to excuse them and ran in the back "you were very rude to Diana back there" Sylvia scowled. "You know how I feel about strangers" Tamao barks back. Sylvia stared looking at Tamao with her mouth open, after a few moments, Sylvia closed her mouth
A few months later the three are like friends when Diana receives terrible news from her mother (who is a Meloetta) that she must leave. The two eevees are sad to see their friend leave but they know she must go. Before she leaves she gives Tamao a gift of a crystal chandelier to help with her moon beaming.
They were sad. Then a few months later another guest came. Her name was Grace (and she was a glaceon) "Hello are you two the owners of this nursery" Before Tamao could answer Sylvia rushed forward and smiled welcomingly at the stranger and replied to the question telling her that they were but then the stranger surprised them by asking if they were Sylvia and Tamao Yamamoto, then saying that she was a relative and that her parents had died in the same fire that claimed the lives of Sylvia and Tamao's parents. She also explained that their mothers were sisters. "So" processed a confused Tamao "we're cousins is that right" "Yes you are correct" replied a confident Grace "Wait if we are eeveelutions are you?" Tamao asked Grace suspiciously "yup imma glaceon" "And you two" grace asked curiously
"I'm a Sylveon and Tamao is an Umbreon" Sylvia replied quickly before Tamao could. Tamao didn't like the way Sylvia cut in front of her but she thought not to mention it in front of Grace. "You can start in the ice room" said Tamao in a tone that suggested she didn't want to be there. "Ok" replied Grace confusedly. As Grace glided, sorta, over to the ice room, Sylvia ran up to her and explained that Tamao's lack of trust was because, their parents died when they trusted an infected magmar and that it was he who started the fire. "So that's her problem" oohed Grace "yep and she hates the fact that I'm so welcoming" said Sylvia darkly
Tamao was on her own in the eevee room and despite the fact that she was surrounded by eevees, she felt lonely. "Why did Sylvia go with Grace and what is taking her so long to get here" Tamao thought aloud. Once Tamao was done in the eevee room she moved to the missing no/ glitch Pokémon room. She hated this room and knew that Sylvia knew that and pondered why Sylvia sent her there. Eventually Sylvia caught up with Tamao in the fire room. "What took you so long?" Tamao cried at Sylvia. Shocked by Tamao's tone "I was explaining the rules of the nursery to Grace". Upon hearing this Tamao felt that she would lose Sylvia to Grace. "I'm going to the shadow room, so why don't you run off to your precious Grace". As soon as the words were out Tamao instantly regretted saying them but Tamao decided not to apologise. No. She was too angry for apologies. Instead she sped off to the shadow room. As soon as she arrived her little darkrai friend sensed that Tamao was stressed so he went over and gave her a hug. Surprised by this one gentle gesture from a Pokémon with such a dark back round, Tamao hesitated before hugging darkrai back. After the hug Tamao wondered how darkrai knew that she was annoyed considering lucario was the aura Pokémon. Then she remembered that darkrai was next to a lucario and most the Pokémon knew that they were friends. A few moments later both Grace and Sylvia came in. "What are you two doing here" Tamao asked suspiciously. Grace immediately rushed forward and apologised and explained that she was not trying to steal Sylvia from Tamao, and for the first time since their parent's deaths she cried. "Oh my arceus it's a miracle, she's actually crying" exclaimed Sylvia sarcastically. Sylvia knew that she shouldn't have said it as soon as it was out. Before Sylvia could apologise, Tamao ran out with her vision blurry with the tears. She ran all the way to Professor Sycamore.
"Sh sh" calmed Prof Sycamore "I don't think Sylvia meant it that way, I think that she was pointing out that it was a long time since you last cried considering the fact that you have not cried since you know" here his voice trailed off. Tamao knew his wished not to upset her further. Minutes later Tamao heard the door creak and it made her jump a mile it the air. It turns out it was just espeon using psychic bringing in some poké puffs and tea. "Thank you" Tamao said acceptingly. "Espy espeon" the espeon said thankfully. "You are going to talk to Sylvia" sycamore said. "You won't make me do anything" Tamao exclaimed sticking out her tongue playfully. *Why did I do that?* Tamao thought. "Hey are you ok"? Asked Sycamore concernedly, bringing Tamao out of her thought. Once Tamao had convinced the professor that she felt better, he made her go home.
knock knock*. "Mhm oh a knock on the door" said Sylvia. *Please let it be Tamao please let it be Tamao.* Sylvia thought charging to the door. Sylvia yanked the door open and flung herself at Tamao. "Thank arceus you're ok i was so worried, where did you go" Sylvia said crying. Sylvia refused to let Tamao go until she explained where she had gone.
