Author's Note: Yes, I know. You wanna know what happened to me right? Well, my big brother screwed up the computer AGAIN on my birthday. My birthday of all days! So, I had to stop writing for a while. I've decided that unless I have any extra time, I'll probably get only one chapter per month out. Sorry! I've reached more than 10,000 words for this story! Party!!! Please R&R. On with the fic! ~ Laserlight
Disclaimer: If plagiarism were legal, I'd own pokemon about now, pigs would be intellectual, school would no longer exist, and I'd be in a sailor fuku, saying my name is Sailor Dragon. Point is I do not own pokemon! I only own Angela, Fright, Terror, Regret, and the story plot!

"City?" Suicune repeated. The city, of all places! A city where loads of people are in broad daylight with crowded streets and flashing signs!
Angela hopped on Suicune.
"Yes, the city. It's the only place they won't be looking for us. Think of it. If we make a run for it, Eusine's men will find and chase us down. If we're in a city full of people who aren't looking for us, we stand a better chance."
The legendary pokemon factored the info. True, if Eusine's cronies found them, they'd have another long run. In a city where they'd least expect them, people would most likely see and make a racket. Eusine's men would enter the city while they would leave. With that on his mind, he jolted towards the city with Angela
almost falling off.
"Whoa! Slow down! Just act casual. It's something my cousin taught me. You don't look suspicious that way. Go over there, by that garden." She pointed to the nearing flower garden by a street. The garden looked more like a park with trees scattered around and bunches of rose bushes. A small water fountain stood in the middle. Tulips and snap dragons where everywhere. 7-foot tall shrubs hid the street from view. Almost immediately, the scent of humans overrode his sense of smell.
He cautiously walked behind the shrubs. Angela got off and started to walk on the sidewalk when a purple-haired pain-in-the-ass sped down the road. She quickly ducked behind the shrubs with a horrified look on her face.
"Eusine's here."
"Should we run?"
"Depends" Replied another voice behind them. They whirled around to find the speaker. A young adult stood in front of them. She was a couple inches taller than Angela with shoulder length dirty blonde hair. A light blue bow was tied around her neck. The white vest she wore looked more like a cape and covered the short blue dress underneath. Her blue eyes looked with curiosity at the two.
"Ah dammit!" Angela thought, "Great, you're in deep shit now Ang!"
Her eyes shifted from Angela to Suicune.
"I get it. Why don't you two come inside for the night? Don't worry, I won't tell." She replied with a wink. She turned around and slowly walked back. After a few seconds of silence, Angela hesitantly spoke up.
"Great. What do we do?"
"We're caught. Either way, we're screwed." He replied.
"Dammit! How do I keep messing things up like this?!"
The soft thumping of the lady's boots stopped as she turned around.
"Hey! Are you gonna come or not?" Angela gulped and silently started to walk where the lady was.
"I'll go and check things out. You can stay here if you want." She whispered to Suicune. He nodded and she followed the lady through a narrow pathway in the garden.
"Suicune's not coming?" The lady asked.
"No." She softly replied. The young lady sensed her uneasiness and opened the gate in front of her. They continued through the passageway.
"Darn. I wanted to ask him a question."
The shrub passageway abruptly stopped in front of a small mansion. The lady headed toward it as Angela followed close by.
"How would you understand him?"
"He spoke English, didn't he?" The lady paused to look at her confusedly. Angela shook her head.
"I thought he spoke English too when we first met. Hey! Can you understand all the rest of the pokemon too?" She asked with amusement. This time, it was the lady's turn to shake her head.
"No. The only other pokemon I heard to speak our language was…" She trailed off and looked away. The lady led her into the kitchen.
"You hungry?" She asked.
"Yeah." Angela replied as she sat at one of the counters. The lady smiled and raided the refrigerator. She pulled out some sandwiches and set them on the counter.
"By the way, my name's Molly. Nice to meet you!" She declared as she sat at the counter. Molly extended her hand.
"My name's Angela." She replied as she shook it.

Suicune raced through the forest by the city. His senses were telling him Entei was nearby. He rushed to a small clearing where Entei was standing. His expression looked vexed.
"Where were you? It's not like you to be a laggard. Has something happened?" He coolly assumed. Suicune nodded.
"Many things my friend, many things. Where's Raikou?"
"Raikou got sidetracked by something. He said he would catch up later. Shall we move on?"
Suicune hesitated to say something.
"We can't get far here. Eusine has blocked everything off. I'm also waiting for someone."
Entei nodded.
"Where do we meet your friend?" Entei asked.
"Follow me."
And so, the legendary dogs ran through the forest back to the garden. Entei looked around the park before asking.
"Suicune, are you forming a hobby of hiding in humans' backyards? This is the second time you've hid in this way."
Suicune lost his cool demeanor and gave Entei an embarrassed look. The fire-dog silently chuckled.
"What?! No! In Ecruteak, I was invited to hide there! And this time, it was not my idea!" He countered. Entei smirked.
"Invited?"
Suicune sighed as he sat under an oak tree.
"I just can't win, can I?"
"Not really."

Molly and Angela finished up their dinner quickly. Angela quietly sat in the kitchen while Molly washed the plate.
"I could give you a tour of the house if you like." The 18 year old mentioned. Angela nodded.
"The place is so big! How did you get it?"
"My dad is a big time pokemon researcher. It's not as big as the house my parents and I lived in, but it works. Actually, the west wing is a pokemon gym for baby pokemon. Most of the trainers go there, so you probably want to stay on this side. Your turn! Who exactly are you hiding from?"
Angela didn't reply, so Molly went to plan B.
"Ok…Do you think Eusine's cute?" Angela's eyes widened as she stood up to look at Molly in disbelief.
"No way! He's the enemy and there's no way in the world I would think he is cute!"
Molly smirked.
"Enemy, eh? So you ARE hiding from him!"
Angela made an exasperated sigh and sat back down.
"There's just no winning, is there?"
"Probably not." Molly put the dish away and dried her hands with a towel.
"Anyway, I won't tell. I've had my own adventures with a legendary pokemon."
Molly led her to the living room. Two couches surrounded a glass coffee table in the middle of the room. The fireplace was off to the side, while bookcases were lined up behind her. She sat on one of the couches.
"You're friends with a legendary pokemon too?" She asked. Molly had a look of sadness in her eyes.
"That's what I wanted to ask Suicune about. When I was five, I played with some really powerful pokemon that papa was researching before he disappeared. They got into my mind and created an illusion. See, I was all alone and I really wanted papa back, so they made an illusion of Entei."
"Why Entei?" Angela interrupted. Molly sighed and sat on the opposite couch.
"I thought Entei was similar to papa, and since they didn't want me to have papa himself, they got me the next best thing. So, they ended up covering almost all of Greenfield in crystal. Of course, they were feeding from my own imagination. Some help came and was able to convince me that the real world is better. But we couldn't get out because they created too much energy. Entei saved us all, and I've been wondering if he was real or not. I eventually learned that Entei traveled with the two other legendary dogs. And here you are." She finished.
"I didn't know that. Come on. We'll ask Suicune."
The two walked back to the garden where the legendary dogs were. Entei picked up the noise.
"Humans. Let's go."
"It's probably Angela. It's about time she came out." Suicune yawned.
"Angela? Does this have to deal with that one girl?" Entei inquired.
Angela walked into the garden and spotted both legendary dogs. She quickly ran over to Suicune's side.
"Entei, this is Angela. Angela, this is Entei." Suicune introduced. Angela studied Entei carefully.
"You seem familiar."
"We may have met a long time ago." He kept his watch on the girl. She didn't seem to be a threat. But he was taught to never underestimate humans.
"Do you know Molly? 'Cause the last time she saw you, she thought you were an illusion."
That was unexpected enough.
"You know of Molly?" He asked, slightly disbelieving. She nodded and sprinted toward the far side of the garden. Both of the legendary dogs could hear a small conversation.
"Can I ask now?"
"Don't worry! You don't even need to ask now!"
"What do you mean by that?"
"Come on!"
And with that, the two could see Angela dragging another human into the garden. Molly caught sight of Entei and began running. Angela let go before she could be dragged and slowed her pace.
"Entei! It's really you!" Molly cried. She stopped about a foot from the legendary fire beast and inspected his features. Entei smiled at her childishness.
"Yes Molly, it's really me."
"Papa, you remember!" She hugged him and calmed down.
"Thank you so much Angela!" Molly exclaimed. Angela smiled back and waved it off.
"Don't thank me! I didn't do anything!"
"Let's go inside." Molly announced. Everyone agreed. Angela caught up with Molly while Suicune and Entei followed in back.
"Suicune, I just want to warn you ahead of time." Entei whispered. Suicune slightly shifted his head toward Entei.
"Just in case Raikou finds us, it's your fault." Suicune smirked.
"Fine."
