Updated by fixing some questions left unanswered
-Kirlia's PoV-
"Why did he want me to go with others?" I thought to myself. "Do I bother him that much? I'm gonna have to ask him later, or dig into his mind, although I never wanted to have to resort to that."
Just then I saw myself getting close to the small group ahead of me. I couldn't sense any bad intentions from them. Although I wouldn't normally approach a group, but it was my trainer's command, so I can't say no for too long."
"Hi there guys!" I called out.
They all just looked at me kinda weird. It was kinda like they weren't sure if they actually heard me.
"Oh hey there." The Riolu said.
"Who are you?" The Sneasel snapped.
"Dang Sneasel, calm yourself." The Braixen replied.
"Wow, kind of a weird welcome." I thought to myself. "I go by Kirlia. It's nice to meet you."
"Likewise. We also go by our species names." The Gothorita explained to me.
"Okay. So what are you guys up to?" I asked. "Mind if I hang with you?"
"Sure I don't see why not." The Braixen told me.
"Okay sounds good." I replied.
"Anyway" The Gothorita butted in. "I don't want to sound rude already, but to answer your previous question, we were actually talking about the group over there." She said pointing to the others.
"Oh cool." I said.
"Yeah some of us were eyeballing some of the one in that group too." Sneasel snickered.
"H... Hey stop it!" Braixen stuttered while getting a laugh from a few.
"Oh yeah what about you?" I asked Buneary who just hid behind the others. "Is she not feeling well?
"She had a kind of unfortunate run in with a Gallade once." Gothorita told me.
"Oh I had no clue." I replied now upset. "Can I ask what happened?"
That's when she spoke up.
"I guess I can tell you." Buneary said. "It was about two years ago. I was walking around with my parents; they were showing me a bunch of things that were important. Which things I could or couldn't eat. THey showed me how to distinguish between rotten and good food. They told me what kind of Pokemon I should avoid to be safe. Then they were starting to tell me things for when i was to start a family of my own. They were telling me to be careful of who I pursue. It could cause problems if they aren't the right one."
"Oh." I replied.
"Then about a week later, it happened." She told me. "We were walking through the forest again. It was probably noonish. We heard a noise. It came to us and we saw a Gallade. It came towards us so my parents jumped in front of me and motioned for me to run. I heard a yell and saw my dad go down so I stopped and hid. Then I saw its arm glow white for a Focus Punch, and that's when I saw my mom go down too. I saw him do a quick scan off the area, as if he was looking for me. But then, he gave up. I saw him drag my parents off while I was powerless to help. Ever since then, I've had a fear of your evolutionary line."
I saw her starting to cry, so I went over and gave her a hug. In a way as to help comfort her.
"I'm sorry I brought back such bad memories." I told her softly. "If I knew it was like that, I wouldn't have asked.
"It's okay." She replied. "You had no way of knowing."
"I never got to see my parents." I told her. "I was found as an egg by someone who I grew to call mom. She was in love with her trainer but he released her so she took my egg and ran off. So I can't say I know your pain, but I do know something similar."
"Oh." Buneary said.
"Thanks for opening up to me though even though you don't really know me." I told her.
Then I saw Sneasel messing with Braixen who was blushing.
"What's going on, if you don't mind me being nosy?" I asked.
"Braixen here has been eyeballing that Luxio over there." Sneasel teased. "Go on girl, say something."
"Oh, really?" I asked,
"Yeah, and don't think I forgot about you Riolu. I saw you looking at that Mawile." Sneasel teased some more.
"You guys should try for them. What's the worst that could happen? Gothorita asked.
"Yeah, I guess your right." Braixen sighed.
At that I saw Braixen and Riolu start walking over. Braixen went towards Luxio and Riolu went towards Shroomish.
I watched Riolu try to get on Shroomish's good side. Then Braixen tried for Luxio. I couldn't hear them so I had no clue what was going on.
"Come on Buneary, you go too." Gothorita urged.
"But, I'm nervous." Buneary pleaded.
"Look just go, he sleeping right now." Gothorita said. "What's the worst that he can say?"
"Okay." She sighed defeated as she started walking.
I didn't think to much about it at first. Then I turned to look and she was walking towards Tony.
"Stop!" I yelled.
"Why?" She asked. "What's going on?"
"Yes, what is going on?" Gothorita asked.
"He's not gonna say yes." I told them.
"How do you know?" The three of them asked.
"I'm not a wild Kirlia." I told them. "He's my trainer."
"What does that have to do with anything?" Sneasel snapped back.
"He's mine." I said to them.
"No!" Buneary screamed. "You don't get dibs."
"Yeah she's right, you're still new here." Sneasel said.
"But, I mean that he's already mine." I told them.
"Buneary, ignore her, go for it." Gothorita said.
"Okay!" Buneary cheered.
I stood there and watched Buneary run over to my boyfriend. I wanted to run over but they would've just stopped me. It was hurting me so much. I saw her cuddle up to him. Then, he woke up. She blushed a little and snuggled up to him. Then, she jumped up and tried to kiss him. But, he stopped her. He held up his hand and I saw him shake his head. Then she started coming back.
"He turned me down. "Buneary sighed. "He said that he's already taken."
"Ok then Kirlia, I want you to go try to make a move on him." Gothorita told me. "Prove what you said earlier."
"Okay." I told her as I went to go do just that.
I walked over to him, laid down by him, and cuddled up to him.
"Look Buneary, I told you that I'm happily taken." He said as he rolled over. "Oh Kirlia it's you, I'm sorry I didn't notice.
"It's fine, I was just bored and I missed you." I told him. "They're nice and all, but I like when I'm hanging with you."
"Yeah I know, I just want you to be able to make new friends." He told me. "I love having you around me. It's really nice. The thing is though, if you spend all of your time with me, you'll end up pushing your friends all away."
"But, as long as I have you I don't... mhm." I started.
Tony cut me off with a kiss. I couldn't believe it. It felt so magical, so sweet, just like the first time we kissed.
"Kirlia, I know what you're saying, but listen to me." He said. "Even with me, you still need friends. There will be things that I can't help with. Your gonna need them. So, that's why I've been pushing you to make friends."
"Thanks, Tony." I said
He pulled me into another short kiss before I could go. After pulling back, I then went back to the others.
"Ok, looks like you were right." Gothorita said.
"I'm sorry I tried taking your mate." Buneary apologized.
"It's fine." I said with a sigh. " I just wish you all would have listened. I don't like seeing others other people cuddle up to him."
"Ah, so you're jealous. HAHAHA". Sneasel teased.
"Yes, I am." I told her.
"Oh, that's not any fun now." Sneasel whined.
"Yes, that's the point." Gothorita explained while shaking her head.
"Thanks for not getting mad at me." Buneary said.
"It's not worth getting mad; I know why you didn't believe me. So, it would have been stupid to get mad." I told her. "Oh here comes Riolu. Let's see how it went."
"Hey Riolu, how'd it go?" Buneary asked.
"He turned me down." Riolu said. "Then, the Mawile came over and said that the Shroomish Is with her."
My eyes went wide. I never heard of that. Even though Mawile is practically my mom, I'm not going to see Shroomish as my dad. No way it's happening.
"I didn't know that." I said in shock.
"What do you mean?" Gothorita asked.
"I've been traveling with this group for a while." I told them. " That Mawile is the one who raised me from an egg. I'm just surprised, that's all. That could make that shroomish like a kind of step dad. I just wish she would have told me."
"Oh okay, that makes sense." Gothorita said while nodding her head.
"Hey guys!" Sneasel yelled.
"No need to yell." Riolu replied.
"Anyway, it's dinner time who wants to go snap Braixen out of her trance." Sneasel said while rubbing her stomach.
"She'll probably be over soon." Buneary said.
"Well she better, she has all the money." Sneasel snapped.
"Where do you guys get money?" I had to ask them.
"We sell items that we find laying around. And sometimes Braixen or Gothorita will use their psychic powers to tell people that we want to battle for money." Riolu explained. "At least we would before we got stuck here."
"Oh that sounds pretty cool." I said slightly surprised."What do you mean stuck here?"
"One day, we wanted to see where all of those boats were going." Riolu told me. So the five of us stowed away on one. When it got here, Sneasel poked her head out and we got noticed. Then they kicked us out right then and there. So, we've been stuck here since. Lately, we've had to rely on items dropped by passing trainers that we missed. But, once in awhile we do get to try to battle, although it is very rare."
"Oh wow." I said shocked.
"Ok, so, yeah, so who wants to go get her?" Sneasel asked.
"Ugh fine, I'll go." Gothorita reluctantly volunteered.
"Well I'd better get back to my master." I said. "You were right, it's about that time. See ya tomorrow."
I then ran back to Tony. I was happy, I had friends now. I was glad that he had told me to do that.
"Hey Tony!" I yelled while running to him.
"Oh hey Kirlia!" He called back.
"I'm glad you had me go over to them." I said. "I'm pretty sure I made some new friends."
"See I told you." He said while chuckling a bit. "Looks like you came back for dinner. Is that what I'm good for lately? Hahaha."
"Well... no... I mean, I'm hungry... but... UGH." I sighed. "Why do you do this to me?"
"Because you're cute like that." He said.
Then he called everyone over. I saw Fletchling come over first. Then followed by Marshtomp, then Mawile and Shroomish. I helped him set up the bowls and fill them but then I noticed that Luxio wasn't here. I looked up and almost freaked.
"Tony!" I screamed.
"Yeah what is it?" He asked.
"It's Luxio!" I screamed some more then saw Tony look over.
"Oh no! Luxio!" He yelled.
We started running over. Luxio was laying on his side. Braixen was right there, shaking him, and crying.
She just kept yelling. "Luxio! Wake up! What's wrong?!"
Tony pushed Braixen out of the way. He tried to wake up Luxio himself, but to no avail. Then, Tony just returned him to his Pokeball and turned to me while recalling the others.
"Let's go. Luxio needs help fast." He said while turning to run.
"Let me come with you, I want to help if I can." Braixen pleaded.
"No, you've helped enough." He yelled.
She looked so hurt. I don't think he cared at all though. He just ran and I followed. I looked back and she just stood there, hurt and crying. I felt really bad myself but I didn't know what else I could do.
We got back to the shore where we first got to the island. This time there was no rain so I could actually see everything. It wasn't a normal beach like I thought. It had pine trees. That made me laugh, which got me a weird look from Tony. Then I saw the Pokemon Center that we were heading for. I was now shocked that I had missed it. Raining or not, I should have been able to see it.
We then ran inside and Tony ran right over to the counter. Pulling out Luxio's Pokeball.
"Nurse Joy, I need help." He yelled. "My Luxio was just sitting around and then collapsed for no reason."
"Okay just take a deep breath and keep calm." She told him. "Your emotions will get to your Kirlia and cause her problems. I will take a look at Luxio and see what I can find."
"Thank you." Tony told her while nodding his head.
-Braixen PoV-
"What just happened?" I said to no one in particular. "We were hitting it off so well, then he just collapsed. Did I do something wrong?"
I then decided to go back to my friends. I thought that maybe they could help me out. Maybe they could tell me what was going on.
"See, I told you it would work." I heard Gothorita say as I went back over.
"What do you mean?" I asked them.
"Sneasel was getting hungry and wanted someone to go get you." Riolu said. "So then Gothorita volunteered to do so. She then decided that if she could get rid of Luxio, that you would come back over. So she knocked him out."
"You're a monster!" I screamed. "I liked him! We were hitting it off really well. I was just telling him that I had to come back over to you guys for dinner! And you wanna pull this crap! Screw you!"
I then ran off in the direction that Kirlia and her trainer went. I heard that they were going to a Pokemon Center. So, I ran towards the only Pokemon Center I knew of in that direction. I had to find them. After about 15 minutes of running, I finally found it so I went in.
I saw them. Kirlia was sitting in a chair next to her trainer, holding his hand trying to comfort him. Then I saw a woman with pink hair walk towards them. They looked like they were waiting for her so I listened in.
"How is Luxio?" Kirlia's master asked.
"Did you battle with any psychic Pokemon?" The woman asked.
"No I haven't battled any Pokemon in a few days now." He told the woman. "But I think I have an idea of what happened."
"And what is that?" She asked.
"He was sitting around when a Braixen came over." KIrlia's master said. "They were sitting there it seemed like they were getting along. So then when it came dinner time, I called everyone over. When he didn't come over, my Kirlia looked over and alerted me about him so then I looked up and he was knocked out. I think that Braixen did something."
I was hurt. I had to say something.
