Chapter 3
"Shui?" Huo said peeking into the cave. Ra followed behind him. Some Sneasel greeted them with a smile, others frowned as they passed.
It was day. The sun was up, even though it didn't show in the cave. Ra and Feng's meeting was a thing of last night.
"Oh, Feng! Is Shui around?" Huo said catching sight of Feng.
"Shui is around, yes. Where, sir, I do not know," Feng answered looking at the ground. She acted weak around Huo and Shui, because she didn't want to seem to type to overthrow them. She began to walk away.
"Feng!" Ra said. Feng turned to face him. "You're her friend! Shouldn't you keep her in check?"
Feng just smiled. "Yes, I do." Ra nodded. They were still on.
"Did someone call me?" Shui called. She came walked over to Huo. "Nice to see you today, Huo. How is everything over in Hell?"
"It's not Hell. It's home!" Huo corrected. "We have to work on the welfare of the pokemon who can't get their own food or are too weak."
"Yes, we should," she nodded in agreement. "Feng!"
"Yes, Shui? What's the matter?" Feng asked annoyed, she was having fun playing with the young Sneasels.
"Meeting. Let's go," Shui ordered.
"Fine!" Feng exclaimed. "You never had meetings or anything before you became leader, or before there was this alliance!"
"Feng! Don't say such bad things about the alliance!" Shui scolded.
"You know, Huo, she's right. We use to hang out and have fun before all this," Ra said.
Huo ignored him. "The weak aren't doing so well, and it's a lot of work.."

"Huo," Ra said after the meeting, when Huo was about to sleep.
"I don't want to hear it, Ra," Huo protested.
"But why don't you ever come and run around like we use to with the other guys?" Ra asked liked a begging child.
"I've gotten busy," Huo simply answered.
"You're always busy! You're always doing something! What's more important, your alliance or your friends?"
"Well, if it's come down to that, this alliance."

"Shui," Feng said quietly when they were eating.
"What is it, Feng? You look troubled," Shui replied.
"Shui, you never have time to hang out or the play with the young ones or gossip anymore."
"Is that it?" Shui laughed. "I'm busy these days."
"It's not just these days! It's been the last few months! I've been wondering, what more important to you anyway, your alliance or your friends?!"
"If it's come down to that, this alliance."
'That's just too bad,' Feng and Ra thought.
