Us Against the World
Chapter 1: My Guardian
On the outskirts of a valley, a lone Lucario sat on the edge of a small indent in the wall of rock. She had been out here every night for almost three months. Looking up into the night sky with her purple eyes, she felt the cold air brush through the blue fur on her arm. Through all that happened, she was a wreck. About a year ago, she decided to journey to another place…earth. When she had made it there, she had collapsed and a boy had taken her in. Bryce. Just like that, taken her in without question or hesitation. He was broken, lost from everything. His family barely knew he existed, no friends, nothing to hold onto. She gave him something, that comfort that he always wanted, and Bryce gave her care, trust, and courage. Even the name he gave to her, Violet, fit his personality. He always said to embrace your differences. While Violet was normally teased from those eyes, she no longer cared. The only thing Bryce had was Shadow, his cat, but he passed on. Violet gave him strength through the worst time of his life. She never wanted to leave, but she didn't have a choice. Now she wanted him back more than ever…the one she loved…her confidant, her happiness, her care…her guardian. The tears from her eyes, one purple, one blue, began to fall again. They had every night she was apart from him. It felt as if her soul was tearing apart.
"Bryce…what I wouldn't give to have you back right now…" she wept.
Author's Notes: I skipped The Darkest Place because it didn't feel right reading it. I feel better about this one. This is Violet's POV after two months after returning to her world.
