With Sparkle happily back to normal and healthy the team had set out again, and were now deep in a dark forest. It was lovely scenery and a wonderfully warm day out, but there was one tiny little detail that bothered them all.

They were totally lost.

"What'll we do? We're lost..." Sparkle asked.

"I'm scared of the dark forests at night when you're lost with all of the creepy sounds and the evil things lurking..." Flare started ranting with her amber eyes fearful.

"Whoa, calm down Flare. Nothing will hurt you." Star assured the bewildered Flareon.

"Yeah, we have a great view of the sun, and the weather is great." Sparky said with a bright smile.

"It's going to rain though." Star sighed.

"How do you know?" Sparkle asked.

"She's psychic, remember?" Darkness growled.

"How peachy..." Flare snarled as she stared at the sky.

"I figure if we just travel this way, we'll find some way out of the forest. Since we came from there and originally we were there..." He kept motioning with one paw.

"We'll take your word for it." Sparky said as the team headed off into the direction Darkness believed to be the way out. With Sparkle trotting up front next to her brother, and Flare bringing up the rear.

Grassy clouds hovered dangerously overhead, and the gang wanted to get out of the forest before the rain fell. Then they could take refuge in a cave or something, anything to keep them dry.

Soon, they were to of the forest and into an open plain. Sparkle cheered, and tackled her brother playfully, happy to be out of the forest.

But then Star broke the news.

"Guys, where's Flare?"

Silence settled over the group as they looked around at each other. "I thought she was in back..." Sparky started.

"She must have gotten lost." Darkness said.

"We have to go back for her then! She's the only one of us who can start a fire!" Sparkle cried, "And she's our friend too!"

"She'll be hard to find when the rain hits." Star said.

"Why?" Sparkle asked.

"She's a fire pokemon, remember?" Darkness asked.

And soon as Star had predicted, rain came a drizzling, but it soon turned into a medium level of rain. Not yet a downpour. "We have to hurry then!" Sparky shouted.

And they darted back into the woods, to find their missing friend in the rain.

Flare had fallen asleep on the trail, tuckered out from helping Sparkle with her illness. Now she lay on the dirt road, amber colored eyes closed.

When it started to rain.

At first she remained asleep, until it became a furious downpour, and she awoke with a start, soaking wet. "Shoot!" She cried as she leapt up, "I lost the gang, and to top it off, I'm wet!"

She shook her coat rigorously but it didn't help much, as it kept raining. She had to find shelter-and when the rain let up; she'd look for the gang.

She darted from the trail, through some bushes, the water blinding her sight.

Soon, Flare came upon a cave, and leapt into it. She tumbled on the cold rock, and lay there panting, wet.

"Finally, I'm out of that rain!"

She shook her coat again, and with her amber colored eyes she looked around. Cold, dark, and damp. An average cave.

But soon she heard some not so average growling.

A huge pair of eyes stared at her through the darkness. Then another. Flare recognized them as Ursaring eyes.

Big ones.

"I've got company." She growled.

The Ursaring, first one then the other, came lashing out at her. She had no choice but to go out of the cave and into the rain.

They followed.

She used flamethrower at them, but the rain dissolved it before it hit. "No, it's too wet! Fore won't work!" she snarled.

She barked piteously, hoping her friends would hear her.

Time would tell.

With Sparkle, Darkness, Sparky, and Star, they heard Flare's weak barking. "That's Flare!" Sparkle cried.

"Let's go!" The other three yelled.

They took of in the direction her barks came from, hoping they will find their fiery friend.

But would they be there in time?
