Chapter 3: Is Alot Easier Than Facing It

Regal sat on the windowsil of his prison. He stared out the window, depressed, angry, hopeless; all those feelings made him want to vomit. Being stuck as an Umbreon made everything even worse. His black fur stuck up with anger as he thought of the escape that went wrong. How did the Henchmen know they had escaped? As he thought on this, his thoughts suddenly turned to Kaylsta.

Through all of these mixed emotions, two stuck out in general; Worry for Kaylsta's safety and the...blissful feeling he had for her. Being a Poke Morph, pretty much shut up from the outside world his whole life, he didn't know what this feeling was. He always tried to hide it from her...although he didn't know why.

His ear twitched as a clicking sound came from the door. He jerked his head around, fur rising in fear at what could be coming in. He jumped down on the floor and growled as the Master came in. The Master glared at him and then, glancing at the spiked collar around his neck, laughed in mockery at the helpless Poke Morph...or so he thought.

"So, here's one of the freakish Poke Morphs," he chuckled evilly, eyes glowing red. "I see you've not given into the power of the coller, aye. We can fix that."

Regal hissed as the Master neared him. He tried to attack with Psychic, but the Master just dodged. This surprised the young Poke Morph. He had dodged it as if he was as lightweight as an Eevee...and he wasn't! Still, Regal continued his line of attacks until the Master had reached him. Chuckling, he picked up the Umbreon by the gruff of the neck, cutting off the Poke Morph's breath. Regal twisted and turned in the air, trying to get free and get air into his lungs. The Master watched him struggle, amusement gleaming in his eyes. Just when Regal's struggling became weaker and his vision started to blur, the Master threw him to the ground like a child who no longer liked his toy. Regal gasped for breath and struggled to his feet. His muscles protested, sending pain up his legs. He stood his ground though, panting with exhaustion from lack of breath. The Master chuckled again and kicked at Regal, but Regal easily dodged. His eyes narrowed at the evil Team Cion Leader, giving him the coldest looking harboring all the rage and hatred he had of this man. The Master glared straight back and look toward the door.

"Well, my attempt was furtile," he growled. "But, maybe your friends can talk you into it." Just as those words escaped his lips, a Flareon walked in, eyes glowing an evil red color. The same spiked collar hung around it's neck too. It growled and ran at Regal. Then, Regal raised his eyes in horror.

"Aranel!" he yelled, dodging her Tackle. Aranel only hissed and regained her footing. She didn't seem to hear the Umbreon. "Aranel! It's me, Regal!" he cried, jumping out of the way of her Flamethrower. He cringed as his bottom left paw was singed by the flame. She was fast! THe Flareon still wouldn't listen, and kept throwing attack after attack at Regal. "Aranel, c'mon! Snap out of it! It's me, Rega--" He stopped short as an unexpected line of fire headed toward him. He tried to dodge, but the flame hit, and he yowled. He was thrown back several feet, into the train wall. As he hit, he felt his right paw crack. The pain from the impact burned through his body as he tried to get up. He wasn't going to give up a fight...But he didn't want to hurt Aranel either.

That's when he realized what was wrong. I see you've not given into the power of the coller, aye. The Master's words suddenly made since. But... how was the collar controling her? Regal thought of this as he ran around the train, winching on his injuried paws. Something inside the collar was making her do this, but how could he get it off? He had an idea, but it was a risky one that could cost him his life if he went too slow.

He ran in circle's around the train carriage, thinking of the easiest and safest way to conduct his plan. He stared at the collar and looked around. As he looked up, he saw a large wooden block sticking out from the wall. If he could get on that and jump off, he just might be able to tear the collar off her neck.

He passed it up the first time, going around her one more time. Then, when he was about 3 feet away from it, he pounced. Luckily, he managed to grasp onto the wood with his claws. He scrambled up, just in time to miss a beam of hot fire. As Aranel prepared for her next attack, Regal looked around franticly for somewhere to go. Looking to his left, he noticed several more beams of wood sticking out from the wall in a complete circle. Just as Aranel shot the flame of fire at him, Regal leaped...and was hit by a beam of flame! Screaming with surprise and agony, Regal fell straight down and landed with a loud thud on the ground. The flame burnt out and Regal tried to get up, but his muscles protested and sent him back to the ground. He tried again. He couldn't give up! It wasn't an option! He had to save Frollo, Kamlyn...Kaylsta. But, once again, his burning muscles sent him to the ground, this time with a loud cry of pain and angish. His eyes focused on Aranel, who, with an evil smirk, stepped up to him. With a low chuckle, she shot fire at him and the force was so strong that it sent him several feet from where he lay. Once again, his body burnt with paralizing pain. Aranel ran up to him and Body Slammed him, driving the wind from his lungs. He struggled to catch his breath as Aranel Tackled him, sending him, once again a few more feet away. Regal was now covered in bruises, gashes, and cuts. He once again tried to get up, but only succeeding in falling back down and causing more pain to himself. His vision begun to get blurry as the pain started to zap away his strenght. The pain soon became numb and he watched with hazy eyes as the Master and Aranel gained up on him.

Meanwhile...

Kaylsta's thoughts were cut short as a piercing scream cut through the train. She gasped and narrowed his eyes in horror and extreme worry.

"That was Regal!" she cried to Frollo, running to the door. She looked down both hallways, trying to see what way the scream had originated from. Suddenly, another scream, this one more loud and terrifying than the other, came from the left hallway. Kaylsta darted into the hallway, racing down the train and searching for the sound. Frollo was right on her heels. Kaylsta sniffed each door as they passed, trying to catch Regal's scent and find him. Finally, after searching for 5 agonizing and terrifying minutes, Kaylsta and Frollo finally caught Regal's scent. Kaylsta's heart beat franticly with worry as she wondered how to save the Poke Morph that gave her strange feelings. Then she remembered the keys. She had left them in Frollo's carriage! There was no time to rush back. Kaylsta thought franticly, thoughts and ideas running through her head. Suddenly, she found a sutible one and turned to Frollo. "Back up," she warned as her eyes started to glow. Frollo obeyed and stepped out of the way as Kaylsta started to glow a lavender color. After a moment, the power burst from her body and hit the door. Amazingly, the Poke Morphs power shattered the door right before both Poke Morphs' eyes. Kaylsta's eyes returned to their normal color and she felt her strenght suddenly zap from her. She felt weak, but had enough strenght to continue through the door, Frollo's amazed eyes baring into her back. She could feel it. When she rushed inside, she was horrified to watch Regal be thrown against the train's wall by someone she would least suspect.

"Aranel!" she screamed with anger and horror at the same time. The Master looked over at the two appeared Poke Morphs' standing side by side at the door and his jaw dropped in horrific surprise. Aranel jerked toward the two as well, eyeing Kaylsta with evil glowing eyes. Kaylsta let her gaze fall on Regal for a moment. He was several injuried, but hopefully nothing Kaylsta couldn't fix. Aranel growled, her glowing eyes narrowing. She leaped at Kaylsta, fangs bared, with amazing speed. Kaylsta, expecting this, easily jumped to the side out of the attackers way. Aranel slammed into the outside wall and grunted, eye twitching with pain. She turned back to Kaylsta and tried to attack again. Kaylsta, the anger in her heart burning wildly, simply stepped out of the way. Aranel slammed into the wall again and this time Kaylsta attack. He eyes glowing, Aranel was suddenly picked up off the ground, a surprise look on her face. Kaylsta turned her head and Aranel floated through the air. Kaylsta then sharply threw her head to the side and Aranel slammed against the wall. Kaylsta's eyes stopped glowing and Aranel dropped to the ground. Kaylsta was about to attack again, but realized who she was fighting before she could harm her 'friend' again. Closing her eyes, a weird vibrating beam shot from the gem on her head and hit Aranel with it. She fell down asleep before she could do anything.

The Master, seeing as how the Flareon had lost, dived from the Poke Morphs' sight. He snuck up on Frollo and grabbed him by the neck, choking him. Frollo yelped, forcing Kaylsta to jerk around. Seeing Frollo in the hands of the evilly smirking man, Kaylsta lost it. She glowed a white color and the Master was surrounded in a purple mist and Frollo fell from his arm. He couldn't move. Kaylsta smirked at him and threw him against the wall, the same way she did Aranel, only harder. He fainted as Kaylsta let him drop to the ground, her fur the lavender color it was before. Kaylsta suddenly felt dizzy, but was able to shake it off long enough to engulf herseld in a yellow light. As the light faded, her strenght returned and she rushed over to the fallen Regal. His eyes were closed and gashes lined his body. Kaylsta put a lavender paw against him and he glowed the sam yellow color she had. As the light faded, all the wounds on Regal's body vanished and he jolted awake, looking around franticly, until his eyes fell on Frollo and Kaylsta. He shook his head and smiled at her.

"You saved me," he said, standing up. Kaylsta smiled, absorbing his words, but pretended like she didn't even hear them.

"Are you okay?" she asked, concern ringing in her voice. Regal shook his pelt and nodded, still smiling. This had to be the longest time Kaylsta had seen him smile.

"I'm fine. Are you okay?" The same concerned ringed in his voice as he looked her over. Kaylsta smiled happily and nodded.

"Right as rain," she chuckled, turning around. Her smile turned upside down when she saw Aranel on the ground, asleep. Regal stepped next to her and Frollo stepped next to her on the other side. They both wore the same expression she did; Sadness and worry. Regal was the first to speak.

"We've lost her," he whispered to them. Slowly, they all nodded and gasped as the Master shifted in his unconisus state. Grimmly, Kaylsta turned to them.

"We've go to find the others," she said. Frollo and Regal nodded, but none of them moved for a moment. Their gaze lingered on Aranel, at least until Kaylsta stood up. "Let's go," she said softly as she bound sadly out of the cabin. The others followed.

The search was on.
