..:: new arrival ::..
When I woke up, the first thing I thought of was the dreamless night that I had. I was happy. I didn't remember that I was in the ruins of alph. I smiled and went back to sleep, only for a few minutes more though.
After that was when I noticed the fuzziness curled around my neck, a black tail curving its way past my cheek, the tip ending at my chin. Rings of gold lined the short black velvet, forming something that somewhat looked like an eye. I didn't scream though, I was glad. It would explain why I didn't die from the cold in here. The creature that I rested my head upon gave a gentle purr. I knew it was a poke'mon, but I wasn't really sure of what it was. I felt the beating heart, making a strong, never-ending rhythm, pulsing down my face. Comforting really. I nearly fell asleep again, but the thing that I had been sleeping on began to move, and I lifted my head to let it go. I doubted that it really wanted to stay with me anyhow.
I heard the footsteps of another coming from behind me, and once I turned around I saw what it was. A small cyndaquil, holding a few bits of food in its small mouth cocked its head once it saw me. I looked up above me, curious of what the creature that I had been sleeping on was.
I was surprised when I saw it though. I had never seen a poke'mon like that before. I was guessing that it was one of the new dark types, just discovered a few months ago. I saw the same black velvet covering the rest of the being's body, the same types of designs outlining its fur. Atop its head was another type of symbol, or whatever…shaped like a moon. It turned towards me, bearing into me with its dark scarlet eyes, as if asking, "What the hell are you looking at?"
The poke'mon shifted its attention once more to the cyndaquil carrying the food. The cyndaquil, as if seeing what the dark one wanted, dropped the small amount of food onto the floor. I watched as they both ate the bits of fruit.
I groaned, remembering the reason why I was here. I kind of wished that I had any of those poke'mon. I would even settle for the weakest caterpie. I looked at my watch, kind of messed up by now. I guess it should be about time that I leave. Better be heading back. I don't want the others to worry about me. Even if they wouldn't give a shit about me anyway. I picked up my backpack and walked out of the ruins.
The afternoon sun blinded my eyes, and I just stood there for a moment, waiting for my eyes to adjust to the different level of light. I hadn't realized that the two poke'mon inside started following me. The cyndaquil came out first, welcoming the light, while the other was quite reluctant. In fact, it kind of turned away from where the sun shone strongest. I turned around and watched the two curiously.
"Why are you following me? It's not like I'm your trainer or anything." I waited for them to say something. The cyndaquil broke the silence first.
"Cynda! Quil!" (OMG…I cant believe I just did that…!) [I dunno…! I'm just following around umbreon!]
"Huh?" I had no clue what it were saying.
"Aaaa…CYNDA!!" [Uh…UMBREON! She doesn't understand! Now what?]
"I told you! I don't get it!" I scratched my head.
//You're not going to go back there are you? Not after what they did. Why do you think I'm here?//
"Who said that?" I didn't get it. No one said anything. But it was still there. The cyndaquil stood on the floor, smiling at me. I rolled my eyes at it. "It wasn't you was it?"
//We've been cast aside, thrown away like trash. You cant go back, not after all that happened. You can't forgive them. I sure never did.//
"…So…what do you mean?" I couldn't believe this. I actually started responding back.
//You go on, with your journey.//
"But they'll think I'm dead!"
//Think about it. They deserve it.//
"Who are you?" I turned to the nameless poke'mon. "You?"
//I'm surprised that you didn't figure that out earlier.//
"But…" I didn't get to say anything as the poke'mon dashed off, and it knew that I was going to follow. I groaned. Oh god, I was hoping for a peaceful walk today.

I had found myself running after the thing, chasing after a dark shadow. You know how hard that is? The cyndaquil was pretty fast too, at least a lot faster than I was. After the long chase I found myself in front of the violet gym. The two poke'mon stood in front of it, watching the towering building. "You're kidding…how do I know you'll even listen to me? And I don't even have any experience as a trainer. I don't want to hurt you…"
//You can't lose. Not with me. You said that a relationship, with anything or anyone, was built upon complete trust. You don't trust me now? How dare you abandon your own word. I should be the one questioning your alliance. You shouldn't be questioning mine.//
"What relationship?? You're not even legally my poke'mon!" I yelled at it, my patience had gone far enough. It had crossed the line.
//Then catch me.//
"What?" The poke'mon nuzzled at my belt, the pokeballs that I had were at my waist, I had bought them when I planned to go on the quest. They were useless now. Or so I thought.
//Do it. I'm waiting for you.//
I didn't know what I was doing. My hand reached for the pokeballs that hung at my waist. I didn't know what I was getting myself into. I threw the metallic red and white sphere at the dark poke'mon that lay in front of me, just waiting. It didn't take long, the thing didn't even resist. I picked up the ball that lay on the floor and threw it. The thing made a noise and let out the new poke'mon. My new poke'mon.
//I'm not leaving without cyndaquil.//
I slapped myself. Should have known. I felt pretty good either way, and threw the second pokeball that I bought. Cyndaquil didn't resist either. I bet the dark one told it not to. Few seconds later I got my second poke'mon. The two didn't like to be cramped up in the pokeballs, so they roamed around rather freely, I didn't really mind, not even if they left, since they weren't really legally my poke'mon. Well they actually were, but it just didn't feel right.

I sat alone for a while, watching the sunset slowly melt away into the dark. The two poke'mon had gone off to pick some berries and the such. I had offered them some potato chips but umbreon just scoffed at it, and of course, cyndaquil did the same. The duo came back a while later, a few berries in hand. Cyndaquil started a fire to roast the raw fruit in, and it cast an eerie glow across the area. The umbreon sat itself on the floor, a bit tired, letting out a loud yawn that echoed across the silence of the night air. The two had fallen asleep, the fire across from them still blazing, the light dancing across their faces.
The umbreon that seemed to be sleeping opened one eye, red gaze fixed on me. //What?? Take a rest. Big day tomorrow…//
"Big day? What the hell are you talking about?" I questioned the fox-like creature. Nothing had come out of the thing's mind, nothing at all. I ignored it, and lay myself on the cold, damp floor, since I had no sleeping bag anyway. I remembered that I had fallen asleep with umbreon's stone eyes cemented on me.
