Chapter Eight
Claws shinging brightly in the dim light reached for him, yowls of
creatures starving for food and would even settle for his blood. He wimpered
as a claw swiped across his cheek leaving small bloody clawmarks, the smell
of blood brought the starving creatures to a new height of hunger and they
leapt towards him bringing him his doom.
*
Matt sat up his body covered with a thick cold sweat, his blond hair
stuck to his face untill he pushed it off. He shivered and hugged himself, he
had been having the dream again... the one about the neko-ken.
Even though Sabrinas power had removed the madness of the neko-
ken and his fear of cats the dream of that day still brought him terror, it was
engraved into his very soul... he would never be truly be free of that
nightmare.
'At least I'm not afraid of cats anymore, if I was still afraid I wouldn't
be able to be friends with Mew and Meowth' he thought, he was so grateful
to Sabrina.. without her skills he would of gone insane when he had met
mew.
"Ewww," he said when the smell of his sweat came to him, his nose
wrinkled slightly. His cleaning habits were better then they had ever been in
Japan, he hated to stay sweaty and stinky for any length of time.
"Better take a quick shower, then I'll head back to bed," Matt said to
himself, he looked at Yuki who had been sleeping beside him and saw that
she was still asleep.
'Yuki is still asleep, but I better let out meowth so if I'm not here if
she wakes she won't panic' Matt thought and he let out the cat pokemon,
quickly he asked Meowth to look after Yuki and the pokemon agreed.
Smiling he gathered up his shower things and headed to the washing
facilities of the pokemon center, he had it all to himself. He could enjoy the
shower with no rush, he turned on the water and enjoyed the feel of the
fresh water washing away the sticky sweat on his body.
*
Matt yawned as he entered the room he was staying in, he was dry
and clean and in a fresh pair of pajamas. He smiled when he saw that
meowth had fallen alseep beside Yuki, he shook his head at how sweet his
pokemon were.
'I don't know what I'd do without them' Matt thought, he was about to
climb back into bed when he heard the soft sound of someone in pain.
"Who could be up so late at night and in pain," Matt whispered
frowning, pulling on some slippers he once again slipped out of the room. He
quietly walked through the pokecenter till he came to the section hurt
pokemon stayed while treated, to his surprise he saw that Nurse Joy was still
awake.
"Nurse Joy, shouldn't you be in bed?" he asked her, she jumped
slightly and turned towards him.
"I'm suppose to, but the poor pokemon you brought in won't go to
sleep because of the pain," she told him, he now noticed that the eevee was
in her arms while she petted in.
"Let me take over while you take a nap for awhile, its going to take
awhile for me to get back to sleep anyway," he told her, she smiled
greatfully and transferred the pokemon to his arms. He sat down in another
chair as Nurse Joy fell asleep in the other, as he sat there he began to gently
stroke the hurt pokemon.
"I guess you had a bit of bad luck today eevee," he whispered, the
pokemons ears twitched and looked at him with scared pain filled eyes.
"Veee vee" (Everything hurts) Eevee said, Matt nodded understanding
the small brown pokemon perfectly.
"I bet it does little buddy, you just rest now and regain your strength,"
he whispered, he felt the pokemon shift in surprise that he could understand
it... but the small pokemon was too tired to reply.
'Sweet little thing' Matt thought looking down at him, a few hours
later the two fell asleep still in the chair. How sweet
*
The morning sun slowly filtered into the pokemon center, Nurse Joy
had been setting things up for the day since she had gotten up earlier. She
still smiled at what she had seen when when she had woke up, Matt had
fallen asleep during the night with Eevee in his arms.
It wasn't often that she got to see scenes such as this, but she liked to
se things of friendship like this. Sometimes she had to ignor the urge for
adventure, she knew that if she left the pokemon center there wouldn't be
anyone to heal pokemon.
'Maby one day I will have a pokemon journey, until then I will do
what I do best... heal pokemon' she thought, a few minutes later she
welcomed a pokemon trainer as he entered the center.
*
Eevee yawned as he slowly woke up, he opened his brown eyes and to
his surprise found himself in a pair of comfy arms. For a few minutes he
didn't know where he was, then he remembered.
'Now I remember, another pokemon attacked me and I was hurt
badly' eevee thought, he looked up and to his surprise reconized the human
holding him.
'He was the one that saved me and brought me to the human pokemon
center, he held me all night to kep me company' Eevee thought with awe,
from the stories he had heard from others humans were cruel creatures that
would enslave you... he had never heard of them beins so kind.
Of course he had heard the stories about the chosen one and about
Nurse Joy, but he had never expected one to be nice to him. Curious Eevee
sniffed the humans face, the human teen smelled faintly of forests... if that
was possible.
'He smells nice' Eevee thought as he yawned loudly, this action caused
the human holding him to stirr and awaken.
'Hey little guy, bet your hungry," the human said with a yawn of his
own, eevee nodded feeling his stomach rumble softly in hunger.
"Eevee vee ve evv," (Very very hungry) Eevee said, if he remembered
right this human could somehow understand the pokemon language.
"Well you haven't eaten in quite a few hours and you need food to
heal better, let me take you to the cafeteria," the boy said getting up, eevee
who was still sore didn't move an inch since he was quite sure he was safe in
the humans arms.
*
Meowth was bored, he awoken a hour earlier and had found that
Angel still wasn't back. Letting mew out he had gone to search for his
trainer, he had found Matt easily and was relieved to see that he was safe
and sound.
'I have a feeling that that Eevee will be joining our group soon, I
wonder what type of thing he'll call Matt' Meoth thought with a grin, Yuki
called him momma, himself Angel and who knew what mew called him in
his mind.
He sweatdropped when his stomach rumbled quite loudly, he sighed
and headed to where the pokemon centers cafeteria was. Thankfully he
didn't have to stael the food like he had done while in team rocket, since his
trainer was at the center he would be fed free.
"Hi meowth," a voice said cheerfully as he entered the cafeteria, he
blinked in surprise seeing Matt and eevee at a table getting ready to order.
"Angel," he said happily and he ran to his human, thankfully no one
else was there so no on would hear him speak human.
"Good morning Meowth, Eevee and I just got up and were hungry... do
you want to eat now too?" Mat asked, Meowth nodded feeling hunger.
"Hello everyone, what would you like to eat?" Nurse joy asked coming
up to them, Matt smiled and ordered three breakfast specials.
*
Ash almost laughed when he located his brother, the blond was having
an eating contest with Meowth and Eevee and was winning. It was a funny
sight to behold, thankfully the three were being neat about it and were
almost done.
"I win," Matt said finally, as he said that Ash grinned broadly and
slipped in the booth also.
"You three are weird," he said, Matt snickered.
"So what, by the way Ash this is the Eevee I saved yesterday," Matt
said, the Eevee gave a happy sound.
"Nice to meet you Eevee," Ash said, he then turned to face his brother.
"You going to challenge Misty today for a badge?" he asked, Matt nodded.
"Yeah this afternoon, as soon as Nurse Joy tells me Eevee is healty
enough to go back to the wild," Matt said, Ash smiled.
*
Eevee froze when he heard Matt say those words, after his short time
with the golden haired youth he didn't want to say goodbye. There was
something special about his blue eyed savior, he wasn't about to loose his
perfect human.
"Eevee ve vee eeveeee" (Matt I want to go with you, be my trainer)
Eeve cried leaping into the humans arms, Matt blinked and gently petted
Eevee on the head... in just the right way too.
*
"Are you sure, wouldn't you rather be free" Matt asked the pokemon
in his arms, Eevee nodded and vuddled closer.
"Vee eevee ve," (Yes, I want it) Eevee told him, Matt smiled gently.
"Then so be it, welcome to the team Eevee," Matt said with a gentle
smile, he blinked away tears at the love the little pokemon was giving him
after such a short time.
"Um... can someone tell me whats going on here?" a new voice asked,
startled Matt looked up to see that Gary had arrived an apple in his left
hand.
"I think he just got a new pokemon," Ash said slightly confused also,
he had after all only been able to understand half the conversation.
*
"Well Eevee is all healed now, good luck," Nurse Joy said, she had just
checked Eevees health and said he was fully healed now.
"Thanks Nurse Joy," Matt replied, he looked at the pokeball in his
hands knowing that inside Eevee rested.
With that done four humans and three pokemon pikachu, Yuki and
haunter walked outside, the sun was shining brightly and promised a warm
day to come.
"So what are you going to call your Eevee?" Gary asked as they walked
toward sthe gym, Matt frowned slightly thought.
'To tell the truth I don't know, I'll know what it will be in the future...
maby I'll even find perfect names for my other pokemon," Matt finished
with a slight smile, the others nodded and soon the gym came into sight.
'My first gym battle, now my journey truly begins' Matt thought
happily, unknown to him trouble was heading towards him. There was Jesse
and James looking for Meowth, the rest of team rocket looking for Yuki and
Mewtwo looking for Mew.

Well here is the next chapter, I don't know what Eevee will evolve into but it
looks like it will be either Umbreon os Espeon.
