Be My Escape

Disclaimer: I own only Sonya, Scott, Lynne and Niki. I do not own pokemon nor do i know anyone that does.

Sonya woke up from her sleep at 6:19. It was her twelveth birthday.

"Yes!" She shouted. Today she and her best friends Scott, Niki, and Lynne could finally get thier pokemon and start thier journey.

"WHAT? HUH?" Lynne sat bolt upright and shouted. She had spent the night at Sonya's to go with her when she chose her Pokemon.

Sonya put on her favorite outfit for the special occasion. A black shirt with a pink one underneath, black jeans, black boots and pink gloves with black fishnet over them. Lynne just put on whatever she could find then the doorbell rang.

"Happy Birthday, Sonya!" chorused Scott and Niki together.

"I want Cyndiquil." Sonya said determainedly. It was the only option she had. She loved the pokemon Cyndiquil. She wouldn't settle for anything else.

"Last one left!" Professer Elm replied with a smile. "lucky!"

She was handed the pokeball and her face lit up.

"Totodile, please" Scott said innocently.

"Last one as well." replied professer elm and handed Scott the pokeball containing totodile.

"I would like a Chikorita" piped up Lynne

"Last one again! wow you kids are lucky." said the prof and handed her the pokeball.

"Back from the bathroom." said Niki. "What pokemon do i get?"

"uhh..." Sonya said.

"Theres no more." chimed in Lynne. She had always been the bearer of bad news, ever since they were little.

"WHAT?" Niki had an outburst "but i don't want to stay in Gerhard with my mom and my sister! i hate them! My mom won't let me leave without a pokemon! WHAT AM I GOING TO DO!"

"well..." said prof. Elm nervously. "i, a. Have one more..."

Niki's face lit up. "really!" she asked.

"Yes," replied the professer. "Pichu."

"Pichu." Niki said. Her face turned expressionless. "You're kidding."

"Niki, do you wanna leave this town or what?" Scott asked. Her waiting another year meant ALL OF THEM waiting another year.

"Oh fine." Niki said and snatched the pokeball out of the professer's hands. "But i still say Pichu is the world's most suck-ass pokemon..."

On the way back from professer Elm's lab, Sonya was thinking about what her mother had said when she was about to turn ten and going to get her pokemon and start her journey.

"Sonya, dear. We want to postpone the adventure for two more years. Scott parents, Lynne's father and Niki's mother and I have all decided to wait untill you are all 12. You can leave any time after that."

After hearing this, the four friends decided to wait untill Sonya was twelve to go on the journey so they could all go together. Scott was 14, as was Lynne, and Niki was 13.

Sonya came back to reality. She didn't relize she had stopped. She looked around for her friends, but they were no where to be seen.

"SONYA?" She heard Scott's voice. It wasn't that far ahead. She figured they were at her house already. She ran forward. Every step she took she felt more free, like she was finally getting away from the small town of Gerhard she had grown up in.

As she was daydreaming and running she tripped over a large rock in the road. She didn't know what was happening untill she lurched forward. She took a tumble down a very steep and rocky hill. When she got to the bottom, she couldn't feel her leg. Alls she could do was call for help.

"SCOTT! NIKI! LYNNE! GUYS! HELP!" No response. "SCOTT-help..." was all she could mutter before fainting.

"Sonya! I could've sworn i heard her- OH NO SONYA!" He slid down the steep hill to where her limp body was lying. "LYNNE! NIKI! GO GET HELP!"

Alls Niki could do was nod and Lynne just stood there in awe untill Niki pulled her arm and ran off.

Scott stuck his hand in the nearby stream and wiped the blood off her head and lip. He started to sob silently. "please, Sonya... please..."

Meanwhile, Sonya was in a world of her own.

"Huh? What happened?" She said and sat up slowly. "Whats going on?"

"You fainted." replied a voice above her. "You tripped over a large rock and fell down a steep hill. But you will be okay."

Sonya knew instantly who the voice was. She stood up and balled her fists. "WHAT DO YOU WANT?" she yelled, looking everywhere for the source of the voice. "AND HOW DO YOU KNOW I'M NOT GOING TO DIE?"

"Because," the voice replied "Nikiou and Lynne have gone for help, while Scott is staying with you, taking care of you."

Sonya's heart warmed. Scott. Taking care of her. Caring about her. She let down her guard and thought for a moment, then relized what the man was doing. She quickly put up her guard again. "You haven't answered me. AND DON'T CHANGE THE DAMN SUBJECT."

The man just laughed. "Sonya. You know what I want. Why don't you just give in to my demands. Then I will just go away."

"NEVER! I WOULD NEVER DO THAT TO MY FRIENDS!" He was talking about suicide. He wanted her where he was. He wanted her dead with him.

She woke up, coughing.

"Sonya!" Scott quickly pulled her upward tward him in a warm embrace.

Sonya was caught by surprise, but understood what he was going through.
He quickly relized what he was doing and let her go. "Sorry!" He said, blushing furiously.

"Its okay, Scott. Really. I understand." She could see relief wash over his face.

"Sonya! Scott!" It was Niki. "we have an ambulance!"

Scott got up, Sonya still in his arms and took her to the ambulance. He carefully layed her down in the bed and sat on the comfortable-looking seats in the back.

"Sir, you can't be back there." said the ambulance driver.

"I'm going" Scott said and gave the driver a glaring look.

Niki and Lynne hopped in the back as well.

"but-" the driver started to protest.

Sonya sat up. "THEY ARE ALL COMING" she said in a deep tone and gave the driver a pure evil look.

The driver nodded nervously and climbed into the front seat. They were off to the hospital.
