Kaily's gentle black eyes shined in the moonlight. She stared out the window thinking of her home. She had never been this far away from it before.

'Where am I? Who was that guy who attacked us?'she though stroking the unconscious Tallen next to her.

Her eyes fell on that arcanine again, he still hadn't left his spot by the window, though he was now asleep. She turned back to Tallen and Storm, both were so battered an torn you couldn't tell what color they were. She let out a deep sigh.

"This is my fault."she whispered.

"Grrr."

She spun around to see that arcanine stading outside her window.

"You scared me."she sighed.

Without a word it poked it's head in the window and picked up Tallen.

"You want me to go with you, don't you?"Kaily whispered picking up Storm.

The arcanine nodded. Kaily climbed out the open window and got onto the arcanine's back. It took off towards the montains.
After about half an hour they arrived at a lake, with a gigantic waterfall. Kaily jumped down with Storm still in her arms.

"Wow, it's beautiful."she sighed as arcanine put Tallen down,"I've never seen anything like it."

"Grrr."

She nooded and gently knelt down and put her hand in the water. It was warm enough to melt ice. She looked back at the arcanine, who now had her black duffel bag in it's mouth.

"Thank you, I thought that creep stole it."she whispered taking the bag and stroking the pokemon.

The arcanine got up and ran off. She didn't try to follow though, she knew exactly what it was up to.

*Kaily's POV*

I finished brushing out my hair and put it up in a high pony-tail. My white bangs fell in my face again, oh well. I fixed my black tube top and pulled my amethist denim jacket out of my bag and put it on, only pinning the first button. I stood up and looked at my pokemon, who I still needed to clean up, no biggie.

"You two."I giggled picking up Tallen and throwing her in the lake, then Storm.

A few seconds later two stuttering, and water spitting pokemon surfaced, totally clean. Both were throughly steamed, but relaxed when they finally remembered what had happened. Both were soonin my arms, Tallen licking my face and Storm yanking on my hair like she always does when she's happy.

"Well, how you two feelin'?"I laughed standing up, again,"We better get back or that arcanine will start worrying about us."

"Grrow?"

"I'll explain later."

I pulled my wacked out moon stone out of the pocket of my black capries. I put it up to Tallen who evoled and I jumped on. Storm flew to her spot infront of me.We took off just as the sun was beginning to rise.

Professor Oak warrily walked into his patients' room. The girl, and her two pokemno were gone!!

"Well, atleast you can't get frozen to death now."Misty sighed walking in.

"But where are they?"Brock asked looking around, and noticing the open window.

Ash walked over to the window and looked out,"Um, professor, I think that's her."

The other quickly went to the window to see a girl with black hair standing next to Gary's arcanine with a blue, purple, and white pidgeotto on her shoulder and an equally odd growlithe at her side.

"I guess so."Professor Oak sighed,"Oh, no, here comes Gary."

~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*

Kaily looked up as a boy with brown hair ran up to her. Tallen and Storm were immediately infront of her.

"Calm down."she said fatly.

"What the heck are you doing here?"the boy snapped.

"Why is that any of your concern?"Kaily hissed.

"Because this is my arcanine!"

"How could such a caring pokemon belong to you?"

"Grrowl!!"

"Caring, what is that supposed to mean?"

"UGH!!! Calm down, I did absolutely nothing to your arcanine, he just helped me out a little."

"Well, fine but if there's something wrong with him........"

"Relax, pokemon are my life, I wouldn't hurt one unless I was in a battle."

"I'm Gary Oak, you've probably heard of me........"

"Sorry, I haven't. My name is Kail Ketchum, and these two odd balls are Tallen and Storm, my best friends."

"Did you just say your last name was Ketchum?"

"Yeah, and your point?"
