It had been about an hour since we had found the Eevee and she still hadn't woken up.
Mother was starting to look worried and my brother was starting to get annoying.
'Come on Lila, can we go for a proper swim now, pleeeaassse?' He asked. I growled
at him.
'I've told you already Kino, I'm not leaving till she wakes up!' I said, getting very
angry, 'Go for a swim by your self for once.' Kino wasn't giving up that easily.
'Mum said I'm too young to go out by myself. She said your have to come with me.'
Kino pleaded, 'Please.' He asked smiling sweetly at me. I couldn't handle it.
'ALRIGHT ALREADY!' I yelled, 'Jeez, what do I have to do to get rid of you? Fine,
we can go for a swim!' I had to give in, he'd keep pestering me till I did, and that
could take all afternoon!
'YAY.' Kino cried. He grabbed my hand and made a wild dash for the burrow
entrance. 'Don't worry, we'll be back before she wakes up.' He called to mother. It
had stopped raining when we got outside. Kino raced towards the gully at warp speed,
pulling me along too.
'WHEEEE!' He yelled as he bombed into the river. 'Come on in Lila. The water's
really nice!' He coaxed, splashing me. It was nice, I did like to get a little water every
once and a while, but I didn't want to go for a swim right now. I was thinking about
the Eevee we had found, I wondered where she had come from, and who she had
ended up floating down the river. But soon my attention was turned to something else.
There was someone walking up the path along the side of the gully, someone I knew.

(P.O.V Change)

Lily and I walked slowly up the path. I was thinking about Charity. I wondered where
she was, and if she was alright. Lily and I didn't talk to each other much. I still didn't
like any Chikorita. This was because of what had happened in my past. I didn't like
thinking about that though. I hadn't told anyone either. Suddenly I heard a voice yell
out, 'LILY!' Lily looked up and called out, 'Lila!' then she took off quickly up the
path. She ran up to a Bellossom.
'Hey Lila,' she said to the Bellossom as she arrived, 'Where's Kino, I don't see you
wanting to go for a swim!' She smiled. Lila exchanged the smile with her. 'He's in the
river. By the way I got some thing really important to tell you.' She said excited. She
didn't have a chance though, because just then I walked up.
'You made it!' Lily laughed. I wasn't impressed and I scowled at Lily. 'Oh, this is my,
er, friend.' Lily explained to the Bellossom.
'Acquaintance,' I snapped, 'The name's Flare.' I said shaking her hand.
'Pleased to meet you, Flare.' She smiled.
'Anyways,' Lily said, 'This is my sister, Lila.' I was shocked, but decided that saying
something would be rude.
'Follow me and we'll go back to the burrow.' Lila offered.
'Don't forget about me!' A voice said from behind us. I turned to see the strangest
looking Totodile ever. He was black instead of blue and had yellow eyes. He was really
quite cute though. He had just got out of the water and seeing Lily, raced up.
'Lily!' He cried hugging her. She looked pleased to see him, but a little less pleased to
be soaking wet.
'Hey little brother, what ya been up to?' She asked him. I couldn't believe it! I was
even more shocked than before. I guessed that they were probably adopted, I
wondered what there parents were.
'Come on,' Lila said to the us, 'I've got something to show you.' We all followed,
excited to see what it was. As we neared the burrow Lila started to explain what had
happened.
'Well, a little while ago,' Lila started, 'Kino and I were down by the river. This was
when it was still raining and the current was pretty strong.' She continued to explain.
'When Kino was about to go for a swim, we saw something floating down the river. It
turned out to be an Eevee.' She had to stop there because Lily had butted in. She
turned to me.
'It must of been Charity!' She gasped. Lila didn't understand her.
'Charity?' She asked, confused. We might of found her!
'Flare and I were travelling with an Eevee called Charity when the storm brewed up
and she got lost. We came up here looking for her when we spotted you!' Lily
explained. Lila thought for a moment.
'That must be the one. Kino rescued her from the water and we took her home. Maybe
you should come inside, she might of woken up by now.' When we got inside we
found more than we expected. Charity was obviously awake. She was also gone!
