Around the fire part 1 /

The fire was burning strong I guess you could tell because the heat was the most warmest thing ever it felt like you were in heaven. We all sat on 3 neatly carved logs and finally we were ready to enjoy it.

"Wow this fire is so warm." Dylan said

Me and Dylan seemed to get along well and he liked everyone their to "Yup,hey bring out the marshmellows." I yelled, putting my hands near the cozy warm fire even tho my hands were able to go through things I didnt dare put them in the fire it was to dangerous.

"Marsh mellows coming right up!" Erich said, as he tossed us some sticks and marshmellows. Erich and Lydia were making some dinner for us so they were relived to know that they could buy some time to cook on the other fire pit (One not suitible for sitting around)

"You guys better not spoil your appetite." Lydia said with a stern voice, but it was hard to take her seriously with her ears and tail always showing.

"Hey whats the matter Chris?" I asked the frightend Cubone morph.

"Im okay its just im little scared to roast marshmellows." Chirs said as, me Dylan fell off our log.

"You got to be kidding me oh well I will teach you." Dylan said, showing Chris how to roast them.

I ate my marshmellows right up they were, so good every now and then I would forget that my hands could go through things and, so my marshmellows would fall on the floor, but mysteriously when I looked down they wernt their.I had read a book about these things and by the looks of it our criminal for now would have to be called the marshmellow thief.

"Okay guys dinner will be ready in 15 minutes." Erich said as, Lydia and him sat down on the same log.

"Oh,look Dylan, Erich and Lydia are sitting next to eachother." I said as, Dylan laughed not realizing how loud he was.

Dylan and Chris noticed this quickly to and another weird thing was that Erich and Inferno wernt next to eachother. Dylan spoke up"Haha,Erich and Lydia sitting on a log K-i-s-s-i-n-g fi-"

"Shut up whats so wrong with siting with a girl?" Erich asked, trying to keep himself calm.

"1. has short blue hair making her hot 2. you are the same age3. she requested your help." Chris said, I was suprised that Chris was talking like this usually he was to nervouse to care.

Lydia seemed to try and hide her face, but to no avail"Why you little monsters." Lydia said, I guess she was mad because we found her attractive.

"No way I like someone else here." Erich said, trying to hide his blushing face.

I remembered Veronica she had left I guess she had a good reason"Well Lydia is the only girl here and Veronica left a few hours ago to go find her own path,so your saying your gay." I said as, all us boys (Except Erich) jumped behind our logs.

"Your really gay huh?" Dylan asked

"Yes,I mean no." Erich said, with a mad voice as Lydia was now blushing.

"I cant belive you Erich I have known you for three years and you never told me." Inferno said, jokingly as his fur swept in the wind.

Erich looked very pissed and the fire on his back started up"Enough joking guys its not funny." Erich said, with a very angry voice.

"Sorry we were just having fun at your own expense." Chris barley said as he was laughing hard.

Erich then sat down and seemed pleased"Its okay I guess I deserved it kind of." Erich said in a nice voice

"So when is our food going to be ready?" I asked as, everyone her my stomach grumble loudly.

Erich rushed over to the other fire pit "Right now let me get the plates and chips." Erich said as, he got some paper plates and some barbacue chips he then took each plate and put a cheese burger on it then he walked over to us and handed us each a plate.

"Delicious it looks so good thanks Erich." I said, before consuming the cheeseburger it was probably the best one I ever had,it had just the right amount of cheese and the meat was so good and the bun was nice and crispy I knew I had to have seconds.

"Now dont forget to chew." Erich said

"Or breathe." Lydia added as she took a bite out of hers.

"That was delicious can I have another one?" I asked Erich who seemed to be talking to Lydia

"Sure, but only one more." Erich said as, I left to go get the other one.

Once I got to the fire pit I noticed the second bag of chips was open, but how was that possible I know for a fact Erich only opned one I just forgot about it and went back to were the others were and sat down.

I looked over at Chris tears were forming in his eyes."Whats the matter Chris?" I asked ,hoping I could help out.

"Well you remind me some much of how my older brother used to be." Chris said, drying up his soggy tears that were now getting on his food.

"Sorry I made you remember him." I said, feeling a little guilty.

"Its okay it feels like he is here with me even tho he is in Veilstone." Chris said as, he hugged me I took this as a chance to stretch my arms and steal some of his chips.

Lydia seemed very intrested"Hey how did you get caught anyway?" Lydia asked.

"I dont want to talk about." Chris said nearly crying

I quickly warmed up my hands before speaking "How about we each take a turn on telling how we got morphed." I said, thinking it was a clever idea.

Erich gazed up at the beuatiful constellations and stars and finally spoke "Why cant we just tell scary stories." Erich said, he didnt seemed pleased at my suggestion.

I ate some of my chips"Becuase im part ghost type so it wont be fair I can all scare all you easy." I said as, everyone except Erich agreeded.

"So its setteled we tell our stories." Dylan said

I quickly put my feet near the fire as it got slightly colder"Since Chris gave me the idea he has to go first and Erich can go last." I said as everyone nodded in agreement.

Chris POV

I couldnt belive Heath was doing this, but I couldnt let them down it was sort of my idea so I had to tell the truth, because they deserve to know.

I looked at the fire and then back at everyone they were all waiting"Well it happened on a nice sunny day." I began

Begining of flashback

It was a nice day the weather was just right and it was around breakfast time and mom had made some pancakes with maple syrup my favorite food.I quickly rushed down the stairs were my brother was playing with his toys and my dad was reading up on some old Pokemon files.

My mother quickly montiend for me to sit down at the table and then she put a plate of food in front of me."So honey what are you going to do today?" She asked, with her always sweet voice.

"Well im going to the tower today like every saturday morning." I said as I began eating.

"Hey son how would you like to go to the park with me and Mike today I will get you that new video game you have been asking for." His father said as, he began smoking out of a neatly made pipe, Chris hated when his father smoked, but he was just a kid what could he do.

I thought about it for awihle and then gave my answer "I guess I c-"

"Put your hands were I can see them." I was interrupted by these guys with guns they busted down our door.

My dad wanted to be tough "Your not hurting my family." He said, but it was no use they shot him in the leg.

"You evil fuckers." I said as, they took out an 18 Caliber pistol dont ask how I knew what gun that was.

One grunt then picked up my little brother and punched him how could they do that to a 5 year old kid.I was getting mad I was usually nervous, but I had to be tied my mom,my dad, and my little brother up and dumped them into a huge truck.I knew I was next.

"Now little boy how about we tie you up and not kill you." one of the guys said to me, I wasnt goign to give up and I whacked him.

The guy had a red spot from were I slapped him"You little bastard." The guy said as, he shot his pistol I just narowly missied getting shot.

I thought it was all over they seemed like they were leaving, but I was soon to be horribly wrong I quickly went to go phone the cops.

"this is 911 what is your emergency." The lady said

"My family and I are being kidnapped please help us were in lavender town were in the house that is painted green." I quickly said.

The lady didnt seemed please "What kind of a jokester are you." The lady said as, she hung up.

Damn cops their never their when you need them I thought, but that thought was quickly turned into dust as I was wacked with a cutting board and knocked out. When I awoke I was in some sort of tube with water I had all these wires going everywere from my head to places you wouldnt want to know.I looked over and saw my brother being carried by some scientist he was dead I could tell.

Their was this beeping noise"Expierement #82-5R is halfway finished." I heard a machine in the corner say.

I examined my surroundings a little more and figured out I was in some sort of lab and I figured they were experimenting with me. I touched my head and I felt like my skull was ripped out of my head because it felt boney and a little dryer then when it was in the water, so I felt my face this time it felt like it was actually in my body.I quikcly looked at my reflection on the glass of the tube my face it had a skull on it a weird skull.

I then focused on the jerks who put me here my rage was building until I couldnt just hold it in I madly released my rage by punching and kicking the-

Interruption of flashback

Heaths juice box was making alot of noise "Hey Erich can you get me another juice box please." Heath said

Erich sighed and went to go get another one "Heath you cant just interrupt the story." I said, I felt like was about to kick him, but then I remembered my kick could go right through him.

Erich returned with a juice box and handed it to Heath "Thanks Erich now continue." Heath said as, he began drinking another juice box.

Countinuing from flashback

I then focused on the jerks who put me here my rage was building until I couldnt just hold it in I madly released my rage by punching and kicking the glass tube until finally it shattered into a million pieces.I then simply walked out.

"Get him." I heard one of the scientist yell.

I quikcly ran as fast as my legs could take me oblivious to the scientist who were chasing me.I knew if I ignored them I would go quicker and I was right, because after I ran out of the building the scientist had to give up.A map flew by me and landed on my head, or skull ,anyways I took a look at it.

My eyes moved quickly over the map of Sinnoh until I found the place I was looking for "Veilstone city thats were he is I got to go get him." one thing still bothered me how was I going to get there.

End of Flashback

Everyone seemed a little sad for me "Wow you really want to find your brother." Heath said as, he quickly stole some chips from me.

"Well I still want to go their, but im afraid I will get caught." I said with tears in my eyes.

"We will talk more about later." Erich said, I knew he was up to something, but I just left it.

"So now its Lydias turn." Heath said as, he consumed the whole bag of remaining marshmellows.

"Guys she already told me cant we just leave it?" Erich asked

"Its fine Erich I didnt tell you how it really happened." Lydia said

Lydia POV

I looked down into the fire it was so warm "Well before I tell my story you have to promise never to tell anyone." I said

"We promise." Dylan said as, Heath whispered something into his ear.

I glanced at Inferno and then at Erich "It all happened on that horrible night." I began.

Begining of Flashback

Today was the day the flood started the streets were filled with water so much in fact that you couldnt even see the top of some cars, and houses had water coming in through doors, and mother was brave she was getting ready to save people near the beach I tried to persuade her to let me go with her, but she wouldnt anything dangerous since that inccident happened.

"Please mom let me go I wont get in your way." I pleaded

"No do you want to end up like Nat." My mom said as, she got a few life jackets.

I thought for a while and then came up with a good answer "Mom your to worried I wont end up like him besides he isnt dead is he." I said as, my mom looked at me with her mad face.

"We dont know if he is dead we havent found him, but if you really want to." My mom said, giving me a smile.

"Thanks mom I wont let you down." I said as, I hugged her.

When we got to the beach their were a lot of people who needed our help my mom saved a few and so did I. finaly we had to actually go into the water of the sea this didnt worry me one bit, but my mom made me put on a life jacket.

I quickly ran off "Dont take it off." My mom yelled as, I jumped into the water were a little boy was swimming.

"Hello come with me and we can find your mommy, or daddy.' I said as, I tried to pick up the little boy.

He must be fat I thought, but then I looked at him again he wasnt even close to fat I then looked at my life jacket it was restraining me so I quickly took of the orange fat floating device.I then picked up the little boy and handed him to another life guard who was helping out.

I began to speak"See mom I dont need a lif-" I couldnt finish my sentance I was knocked out unconscious and was carried out to sea.

When I woke u-

Interruption of flashback

"Heath what are you doing?" I asked as, he was at the edge of his seat looking at the trees.

"Capturing our little food bandit." Heath said as, he quickly grabbed something.

Erich looked supriesed "What food bandit?" Erich asked confused.

"This one right here." Heath said as, he lifted his had arm and showed us.

He was holding what seemed to be a Vulpix morph the morph was a boy he had regular human hair, but red and his hands were paws and he looked to be almost a complete morph only difrence his hair his body color and his feet.

"Please dont hurt me im really hungry." The Vulpix morph pleaded.

Heath began speaking "Were not going to hurt you we just want to know who you are."
