Pokemon: Not mine. This is the Disclaimer saying that no matter how much I would have liked to own pokemon, I don't. There goes fame and fortune and a lifetime supply of money where I could SPEND THE REST OF MY LIFE!!!

"This Espeon is more powerful then the DarkDestroyers will ever be. So what if they disbanded five years ago, she's more powerful."

"Espeon?"

The Espeon opened its eyes and looked around confused.

*Where am I?*

*With friends. You don't remember? YOu got hit by a rock and forgot everything.*

I changed her mind to believe me.
I fed her the emotions of recognition.

"Uh... Are you two having a nice little psychic chat or what?"

Suddenly I got swept away by a strong feeling of distrust.
I showed her that Natt was a friend.

*Why do you not trust him though?*

*Oh I trust him. To a certain extent.*

Brun bounced up and looked at the baby Espeon.

"She's awake?"

"Yes Brun, she's awake."

"What's her name?"

*What's your name?*

*Name? I have no name.*

"Well?"

"She has no name."

"I'll name her then."

I looked at Natt with surprise.

"If she has a name give her one with meaning. She'll be named Espoir."

"Es-what?" said Brun.

"Espoir. It means Hope."

Author's note: In French. I'm such a linguist! (not)

*What is my name Espelle?*

*How do you know my name?*

*I'm not sure.*

I hoped feverishly that she did not read my mind.

*Your name is Espoir.*

*Espoir. Hope.*

She did read my mind.
She's just like me.
But infinitely stronger.

We travelled even further that day and arrived what used to be Indigo Plateau.
Rubble piled up where the door should be.

"How are we going to get through?" I asked.

"I don't know... Your psychic power-"

"Isn't strong enough." I finished for him.

"Well we'll have to try." he said.

Brun looked at us, then at the rocks.
He started glowing orange and he grew about twice his size.
And ran at the mountain of rubble.

*Brun?* said Espoir curiously.

He attacked so fiercely we were surprised.

The rocks shattered on the impact and flew away in different directions.
Brun shrunk back to normal size.
He was panting heavily.
His brown fur had no more orange glow.

We headed in through the door.
None of us spoke of what we had just witnessed.

I shook my fur removing the dust from it carefully.
The room smelled old and moldy.

Natt's fur suddenly spiked up and the rings started glowing.
The room turned dark.

I peered around, looking for a sign of life somewhere.

Natt pushed me back as a huge dog emerged. It had horns on its head and glowing red eyes.

A jolteon jumped in front of the dog as Natt launched a DarkBeam at it.

"Stop! He's mine!"

The dog looked around then settled down on its haunches.
"Grrrr."

"He used to be a houndoom before the DarkTimes."

Some other little jolteons and one eevee emerged from behind the houndoom.
"These are my children."

The mother jolteon sidled a bit in front of the baby eevee and glared at me.
I froze.

"What are you doing here."

"Mummy! Where's my stone!" whined the baby eevee.

"I'm sorry darling," choked the jolteon, "We don't have any more."

"Well, Brun survived till fifteen levels. Brun? Brun!"

Brun was glowing again and looked like he was going to throw up.

"Doesn't look like he'll survive much more." remarked the eevee casually.

"Kritisch! Don't talk like that!" reprimanded his mother.

She used a thunderbolt on Brun and Brun stopped choking.

"Thankyou Jolteon." Natt said.

Brun coughed up a stone.

The eevee ran forward and leapt onto the stone.

*Selfish brat.* Espoir told me, *Brun nearly died so he could have his "stone."*

Then eevee started evolving.

He glowed brightly then formed into a new shape.

"Ha! I'll be the most powerful jolteon now brothers and sisters!"

"Kriti," said a small jolteon carefully, "You're a vaporeon."

"What!" shouted Kriti annoyed, "Vaporeons are weak against Jolteons!"

"Finally," said a large jolteon, "We can now pay you back for all the times you've bullied Winzig."

"Brud! Stop it!"

"Mum, I mean, Mutter," whined Kriti, "Don't let them."

Note: When an eevee evolves they grow up and are required to call their parents by their normal name.

"Sorry Kriti, you know the rules. Once you evolve you are out of my protection."

--I'll write what all the names mean when I finish the story. And what language. Just a hint, all the jolteons+vaporeon are german.--
