Hey guys, Duffle here once again! You might be wondering why I'm making another chapter for Eevee Pack today, and to answer that question it's because not only do I need to make up for the double upload of Tournament of Power, but since the Weekend is only single uploads, I'm going to do ToP on Friday, Eevee on Saturday, and ToP again on Sunday. Anyways, with that out of the way, let's hop right into the chapter!
Chapter 5: The Flames of Bravery Burn Blue
As the Eevees come back to the village, they barely talked. There was too much hanging over their heads, and quite a few of them were scared. The walk home seemed to be much longer this time, and it made Flareon think.
I don't get it… Why would they want the Green Orb shards? Maybe these things really are important… I mean, when an ancient prophecy fulfills its creation, I'm sure it must be important. I just don't know…
The Eevee Pack finally came out of the woods and walked up to a special building.
"This is where Alakazam should be." Glaceon looked at Flareon. "Flareon, you give the Green Orb Shard to Alakazam. We'll go get Chatot."
Flareon nodded as everyone left to go get Chatot. Flareon sighed and walked into the room.
As Flareon entered, he was immediately met with lines upon lines of books. There were all kinds of them, ranging from fiction to non-fiction, all the way through the house. Many people had come to study about various things, but that's not what Flareon was here for, obviously. He walked to the back of the room, seeing Alakazam working with Espeon and Umbreon.
"Ah, Flareon. It's good to see you my friend. Come, sit down." Alakazam used his powers to have a chair levitate to the table, as Flareon sat down.
Espeon was the first to ask him. "So Flareon, how was the trip?"
"It was… eventful." Flareon took out the green orb shard, hissing in pain as he did so and put it on the table. "We found the shard in the location we went to, but don't touch it."
Alakazam used his psychic powers to lift it up and look at it.
"Hm… I don't believe I've ever seen anything like this. I'll have to do some research on this. In the meantime, you need to report back to Chatot."
The door opened up and the 4 of them looked back. "Actually, we brought Chatot here."
"I can't believe this. Those were some of our best explorers, and now they are either missing or dead…" Chatot shook his head. "There is something horribly wrong about this. You are all positive there wasn't a single body?"
Flareon shook his head. "No one but us and the attackers, sir. We would've questioned them, but they teleported away before we go the chance."
"I see…" Chatot looked back at the Green Orb Shard. "Well then, I suppose I don't have any other choice." Chatot turned to the Eevees. "I need you all to collect the Green Orb Shards. Obviously this evil team wants to get their hands on these, and we can't let them do so."
Flareon nodded. Suddenly, a loud crash was heard outside. "What was that?"
People inside the library were rushing out to see the commotion, and the back group followed suit.
"Oh yeah, burn em down, Arcanine!" Weavile yelled, cackling as Arcanine blasted Flamethrowers all over the town. The Eevees, followed by Alakazam and Chatot faced them.
"You guys again!" Leafeon screamed.
"Well well, if it isn't my favorite little pack! I hope you all don't mind if we burn a couple of houses down, I enjoy myself quite so when doing it." Weavile said.
Vaporeon ran up to the group. "Guys! You need to take care of those guys, I'll worry about the fires!" Vaporeon began unleashing water guns all over the burning houses.
As Flareon got into a fighting stance, he couldn't help but feel something… familiar about that Arcanine. All except for those eyes… They didn't have pupils. It was unsettling.
Weavile jumped off and got into a fighting pose next to Bisharp. "Time for Round 2!"
Alakazam closed his eyes and opened them widely. "It seems there are also attackers on the other side of town. Chatot and I will go take care of them. I trust you are all able to take these guys out?"
Jolteon nodded. "Piece of cake!"
Chatot smiled and nodded. "Good luck." He flew off with Alakazam floating not far behind.
The Arcanine roared and blasted a flamethrower at the group. Espeon set up a Light Screen and deflected most of it, whilst Flareon went after Weavile. Weavile started slashing at Flareon, who started dancing around his claws before hitting him with a Fire Fang. Weavile winced in pain before swiping Flareon off of him. Glaceon jumped to other side of Weavile and prepared to 2v1 him with Flareon.
Meanwhile, Bisharp was having a hard time hitting Jolteon as he was running circles around him. He kept swiping with his arm blades until he accidentally got them stuck in the ground, in which Jolteon took the opportunity to slam him with Double Kick. The 4x effective move sent him flying. He got up and the two stared each other down once more, ready to square up.
Arcanine was blasting Flamethrower all over the place, with Sylveon and Leafeon barely being able to dodge.
"Leafeon, darling, do you happen to have any moves that can do some damage to this thing?"
Leafeon shook her head. "Sorry, I've got none."
Sylveon just tch'd as Arcanine approached them. Suddenly, a blast of water hit him on the side and he collapsed. Vaporeon joined the other Eeveelutions in battle.
"Mm, did you miss me?" Vaporeon said sarcastically.
"Always good to see you again, hun~" Sylveon replied.
Arcanine started to get up and the girls got into an attack stance.
Meanwhile, Flareon and Weavile were dancing around each other, but Weavile didn't except Glaceon to come from behind and tackle him. When she did, Flareon gave her a hi-five.
Jolteon Thunder Wave'd Bisharp and kicked him away, proud of himself.
The girls were still dancing around Arcanine.
"This thing is way too strong!" Vaporeon yelled. Flareon, Glaceon, and Jolteon all came to their side while Espeon and Umbreon came back.
Espeon and Umbreon turned to the group. "We will distract the other two while you take on Arcanine. Good luck!" The two ran off as Arcanine howled and fired another Flamethrower.
This time, however, Flareon didn't dodge, and just let the fire hit him. His Flash Fire ability activated and his whole body was set aflame with power. He charged up a powerful fire blast, but then weird, green electricity shot out of the library and surrounded Flareon, powering up his blast and having its color change to blue. The fire consumed Arcanine and it collapsed, completely defeated.
Weavile got up and looked in fear. "No way… Was that Sacred Fire?" He looked at Bisharp. "Dude, we gotta split! This is big news!" Two pokemon then disappeared.
Flareon was panting heavily after that last attack. "How… Did I…."
Jolteon gave Flareon a slap on the back. "Good job, buddy! I knew you had it in ya."
Flareon just chuckled as he looked in the direction of the library.
"Thankfully our injuries were minor and construction can be finished relatively quickly, but it's still worrying. How come these people attacked us? It must be because of the Green Orb." Chatot surmised.
They all looked at the Green Orb, which no longer had the electricity or the power surrounding it, and was safe to touch.
"Even still, what you all explained to me was peculiar. You said that green energy came out of this building and powered up Flareon? And that's how he was able to use Sacred Fire?" Alakazam asked.
Glaceon nodded. "Yes sir, I saw it with my own eyes."
"I see…" Alakazam rubbed his chin. "Then if my hypothesis is correct, then it seems these shards are more linked to all of you than we thought. If this shard powered up Flareon, there's no telling what it might do for the rest of you."
Chatot looked at them. "I want you all to leave immediately. This is a mission of the utmost importance, and we need to see this through as soon as possible." He looked at Espeon and Umbreon. "That goes for you two as well." They both nodded.
"Of course, sir." Flareon bowed.
"I wish you all the best of luck. And here-" Chatot gave Flareon the shard. "We'll be safer here if you hang on to this."
"Thank you sir." The Eevees left the library.
"Well then, looks like you did all that worrying for nothing, eh?" Jolteon gave him a tap on the arm.
"This is really exciting! A trip around the continent with my best friends? Oh boy!" Leafeon squealed. Everyone else just laughed at her excitement.
Flareon looked forward at the road ahead. "Well then, it's time to get started!"
Everyone nodded and followed Flareon.
