A/N: Due to being so awesome, I will be releasing this chapter early, next weeks chapter will still come out around Tuesday or Wednesday, it's just I'm a head of chapters so I can release this now, enjoy.
For the people that have been asking for longer chapters now you will be getting your wish, from now on my goal is to hit between 6K – 12k words per chapter, chapter 4 & 5 are about 6k long while chapter 6 is the longest being around 10k, I'm currently working on the 7th.
Great news, I now have help, the user going by the name Orangekirbyyoshi will be a kind of "Beta Reader" for the story, but he will also be helping me come up with ideas, back story and adding in bits in chapters which will be fantastic, he started on this chapter so hopefully there will be reduced mistakes in the future.
One last thing, If you guys have any ideas on what I can do with this story please let me know, I'm always happy to read your comments, good or bad.
It has been 4 hours since Tom and I left home for this journey and we barely said anything to each other, I guess we're still thinking about everything that has happened in the last few days, just the fact that I'm now part Pokemon is more than enough for me to worry about and I think Tom can't believe it either. The past hour Tom as fallen behind about a meter or so, trying to get his brain around everything, I look back every now and again and catch him looking at my tail going side to side like a hypnotic effect but as soon as he sees me turnaround he looks off into the forest hoping that I didn't catch him staring.
"Tom I can see you staring, you can't hide that from me", we stop there in the path, I think now is a good time for us to have a talk.
"What... I wasn't looking at anything, I was looking for pokemon" he tried to lie but I know better, I have been his friend, his brother for years. I can also tell by his expressions, his usually carefree eyes appearing nervous.
"Tom if you ever want to talk about anything I am here, please don't try and hide it".
"Says the person that tried to hide this from everyone".
"For good reason, you saw how everyone got after they found out, I didn't want them to feel like that, but the Professor can fix that quickly", 'Still I can't believe he told everyone, mental note: talk to the Professor the next chance I get'.
"I guess your right I've never seen mum like that before, but how are you feeling, Mum and Dad aside", now it seems Tom finally asks the question, I had a feeling that this was coming but to be fair I did ask him to ask questions.
"I'm scared out of my skin that's how I'm feeling, never in a million years did I thought that I will turn into an umbreon and be on the run from people that want to make me their lab-rattata", saying this out load I could only feel more scared, now staring at Tom he is seems even more concerned, "And guess what there is nothing I can do to stop it, I don't know how long it will be but all I know is that it's going to be painful".
"Sora I..." Tom was lost for words, he didn't know how to comfort me, in the years that we've known each other we have always been there for each other in times of need, like when my father died or when Tom broke his arm and leg when he was eight, long story with that one let's just say that Tom thought it a good idea to swing from tree to tree like an aipom, "I didn't mean to upset you".
"No it's fine Tom, I wanted you to ask questions and you did, anyway it was good to get that off my chest", yeah good but Just saying it doesn't solve the problem, and the problem will never go away.
"Well you said that the professor is going to try and find you a cure".
"Yeah if that's even possible, every time I change I can feel myself going away piece by piece, literally I lost my ears", not that I'm going to complain about the ears, I have been able to hear much better ever since I got them, the tail has been nothing but a pain since everyone insists on taking fur or biting the damn thing.
"Your ears may be gone but that doesn't mean you're not Sora any more, trust me" even in this situation Tom can cheer me up, but I just keep thinking about what I said before.
"You mind we talk about this tonight when we set camp?" I asked.
"Er... sure" I can see it in his eyes, he wanted to help but I wouldn't let him, maybe tonight when I had time to think we can pick this up, "So Sora, have any idea on a new pokemon to catch?".
"What do you mean new pokemon?" why did Tom bring this up, I have no interest in catching new pokemon.
"Well you have Team Horizon after you and all you got is Charmander, as strong as he is, him alone can't protect you".
"You have a point" I sighed, Tom had a point as much as I didn't want to catch any pokemon I couldn't protect myself using only Charmander, "But I just don't want to catch anything, it doesn't feel right".
"Oh come on Sora don't be like that, you have me, Eevee and Charmander here to help and to be friends, why not add other one to the group" I guess I didn't want to catch any pokemon because I didn't want to fight, but I always liked being around them so I could catch one to be friends, "Follow me I will show you how it's done".
Tom grabbed my jacket and started to dragged me into the forest hoping to find and catch a new pokemon. Tom is the one that wanted to be a Pokemon Master so he is the one that studied up on this kind of thing so taking his advice in this matter might be best. He kept pulling me through the trees with branches hitting my face and leaves getting stuck in my ears, if we didn't find a pokemon I'm going to show Tom my pain for dragging me here.
It wasn't long till we hit a clearing, as soon as we hit it Tom let go of me and walked to the middle as I tripped over my feet and fell face first into the dirt.
"Oh man there are none here" Tom cried out sounding a little disappointed, I heard this and with anger I pushed myself off the hard ground and got back on my feet and started to stomp towards Tom.
"Tom you drag me here and we didn't find anything, I got leaves in my ears and mud on my face and all you can say oh man there are none here, how about sorry for making me faceplant the dirt!" I started to yell while trying to get those leaves out of my ears.
"Woah... Sora lets not do anything you might regret" Tom cried trying to back away from my slowly approaching anger. I could just see him visibly trembling.
"Nope you started it and now I'm going to show you my pain!", I picked up speed making my way to Tom who was now getting terrified about what I'm about to do, Eevee jumped between us and started to growl at me, it seemed she could sense that something isn't right.
"Sora this isn't like you please stop... what, look a pokemon!" Tom called out running by me and knocking me back down to the ground, "Ok Eevee bite...".
I stopped listening to Tom's battle as I picked myself up off the ground once again, 'What was that about, what was I doing?' I thought, trying to figure out why I would act like that, I never turned like that on Tom before even if I got leaves in my ears and face planted the ground. I stood there, thinking about it only to come up with one answer, it must have been from the virus I got injected with, somehow it made me turn on Tom I will need to talk to the Professor about that.
"Yes we did it Eevee, we caught it!" I turned around to find Tom and Eevee jumping for joy as he holds a Pokeball in his hands up in the air. After they stop celebrating they started to stare at me, now with a concerned look replacing their smiles, "Sora are you ok?".
"Ye-Yeah I'm fine, Sorry about that I don't know what came over me" I put my hand behind my head rubbing it, "So what did you catch" I ask only to try and change the subject from my resent out burst.
"Oh yeah we got ourselves a pidgey, isn't that cool!"
"Your excited over a pidgey?" I asked sounding rather confused.
"Sora you don't understand, this is my first ever pokemon I caught on my journey, this moment is priceless" Tom replied and it seems he has gone into his own little world. 'I guess I will never understand then' I thought shaking my head.
Later that night Tom and I have set up camp in the clearing, we both let out our pokemon so they can eat and get some exercise. Eevee, Charmander and the new Pidgey were near the tree line eating there food talking amongst themselves, Tom was heating up some food in a pot over a fire we had Charmander help with starting it.
"Hey Sora, can we talk about what happened today?" Tom asked, I did tell him that we would talk about this tonight and I guess I should keep my word.
"Ok well what do you want to know?" I replied.
"Well lets start with why you almost killed me before, that wasn't like you" Tom sat down next to me and handed me a bowl of soup and started eating his, I wasn't that hungry after what happened.
"I don't know, I was getting annoyed by you pulling me through the forest then after I heard you say that there was nothing in the clearing I lost it... I mean... I lost control I couldn't stop, you pushing me down when you went to capture Pidgey snapped me out of it" I put the bowl of soup down at this point fearing that I might drop it, I felt like I was about to cry, "I'm losing control and I can't stop it".
Tom stopped eating a little while ago as he heard me talk, "Sora... I know you, your stronger than this thing inside you, we will win and you will be better" Tom put his hand on my shoulder, I just brushed it off and rocketed up from my sitting position.
"You still don't get it Tom, there is nothing we can do, I'm slowly but surely fading away, it doesn't matter how strong I am!" I yelled why circling the fire, at this point we got the attention of the three Pokemon as they stopped talking and came closer to us to listen in on what we were saying.
"Sora please calm down, getting angry at something that has already happened won't fix anything" Tom stood up now trying to keep me still, it wasn't working.
"Angry? I'm not angry I'm furious, why did this have to happen to me I was only trying to help the Professor and this is what I get!" I know deep down that yelling at Tom wasn't going to help in the long run, but I couldn't stop myself, "I get turned into a Pokemon for the rest of my life and you want me to calm down, the worst part of this is that I will never do stuff like this with you ever again..." Everyone looked a little shocked at what I just said and so did I,'Did I say that, I guess that's what has been bugging me this whole time'.
"Feel better?" Tom asked slowly approaching me.
"A...a bit, sorry Tom I didn't mean to go off the rails like that, it's just these are the times that I will miss most when I finally go, I will never be able to play or laugh and all those other things..." a tear ran down my face as I said this, this is what I would miss the most, I have known Tom since I was 4 and we have become like brothers since then, but soon in the near future that is going to cease to exist.
"Sora..." I looked at Tom and it seems that he is going to start to cry, "We will always be brothers no matter what you look like, even if you lose you memory and can't remember who you were I will stick by you and help you remember" Tom and I were almost in each others faces, Tom then immediately started to hug me, I have had so much hugs lately that it's getting old, but this one I wouldn't try and stop, I only hugged him back.
"Thanks Tom", I said, but I pushed Tom away, when I felt something inside me.
"Hey... what was that.." Tom looked at me and stopped himself mid sentence, "Sora are you ok?".
"Tom I feel really cold" Tom looked at me with confusion, we were standing near a fire how could I be cold, the pokemon looked equally confused.
"What do you mean cold?".
"I mean that..." I stopped, I started to feel pain shoot through out my body, I fell to my hands and knees screaming in pain, Tom and the Pokemon rushed over to me.
"Sora... Sora what's wrong!?" Tom tried to help me up but only let go as I screamed in pain at his touch.
"Tom... please don't... do that" I could barely speak, this pain shot through my muscles and made them spasm making me fall face first into the dirt. I was moaning in pain as I manage to role onto my back, I saw Tom crouching horrified at what he is witnessing, the three pokemon came to my side hoping to help in some way, but there is nothing anyone can do. The pain left my body and focused on my neck and head, the pain got even worse after that but I couldn't even scream, the pain being focused on my neck and head made me gasp for air, I was passing out from the lack of oxygen.
"Sora... Sora!" was the last thing I head before I passed out.
I was in the void again floating alone. 'Why do I keep coming back to this place, every time I go to sleep I seem to come back' I thought, but it wasn't long till I heard an echo voice coming from the darkness.
"Hello again", it said, this voice sounds familiar I remember it from last time.
"I remember you, you think your me".
I heard a short giggle, "I am you, don't you know that" it said. I didn't believe this person no way they can be me even in my own dream.
"Well then show yourself and prove it" I demanded, not a second sooner did a figure appear from the void, but when I looked at it, he didn't look like me nor was he even human, it was a pokemon, but there was something familiar about it, those ears and that tail like just like mine.
"Your... your an Umbreon!" What was this Umbreon doing in my dream and why could it talk.
"You happy now?" The Umbreon spoke.
"So... so who are you?" I asked. The Umbreon seems to be getting irritated by this question.
"For the last time I'm you" It said staring into my eyes, I was cold once again.
"But that's impossible".
"Not really, I'm the pokemon side of you so that means I'm you" the Umbreon started to giggle.
"Why are you so happy?" I asked since it's giggling was starting to get on my nerves.
"Because I'm going to be free soon, I don't know when but I can feel it" what did this Umbreon mean by free, was he speaking the truth about being part of me, I can feel myself slip away every time I come here.
"What do you mean by free, do you have something to do with the pain I feel?".
"I'm not causing the pain the virus is, but the virus is creating me so I guess I am part of it, but I never liked that pain either" Umbreon said shivering at the thought of that pain, I did the same.
"So that means you will take control soon?".
"Oh I already have, today when we were getting pulled through the forest by that boy, he was mean so I tried to hurt him but you came back before I could" when he finished I was relieved to know that I wasn't trying to hurt Tom but that thought quickly went away when I finally processed the information given by the Pokemon.
"You were the one going to hurt Tom!" I started to growl at the Pokemon then putting my hand to my mouth when I heard what I did.
The Umbreon giggled again, "See It's already happening, I can see myself in you" the Umbreon flipped in a circle in joy.
"Why are you doing this to me, why do you have to take over?" I ask hopefully for an answer to stop this.
"No more questions, it's time to wake up" the Umbreon started to run of into the distance before bursting into bright light and consumed me once again.
I was lying on the ground when I regained consciousness, but I was still in pain that I didn't want to move or open my eyes. I laid there moaning and twisting on what I think is my sleeping bag, I heard unfamiliar voices.
"He's waking up, go get Tom!" a kid like girl voice called out, only to be followed by another voice I haven't heard before.
"On it" it was another kid sounding voice called out kind of like a boy, not a second sooner I heard something taking flight and sped off into the distance. Who were these people that Tom found, and where was he, I need answers, screw the pain. I slowly began to pick myself off my sleeping bag when the girl started to talk gain.
"Oh please don't get up, your going to hurt yourself" She cried out, but I wasn't listening I just want to find out what is going on. I manage to seat myself upright and began slowly to open my eyes so they can get adjusted to the light, it seems it was morning meaning I was out the whole night.
"Sora are you ok?" the girl asked, I looked around to find who was saying that but found nothing.
"Who said that, show yourself!" I demanded I was in no mood to play games with kids.
"Sora who are you talking to?" again the girl talked to me, I felt something against my leg, I looked down to find that Eevee was up against it looking at me.
"Eevee have you seen a little girl around here, I keep hearing her but I can't find her" I looked around again to see if I can spot here again only to look at Eevee for an answer.
"Um... are you sure your okay?" that was the voice, but it sounded like it was right next to me, I looked around once again but nothing.
"What's going on... Ow my head" I put my hand to my head to show the pain I was in.
"Here, Tom said to eat this when you wake up" I heard movement of feet and something being dragged across the ground, I turn my head to see that Eevee is dragging a bowl of berries to me, once she got the bowl here she sat down and looked at me again, "Eat up".
'Wait did Eevee just...' I started to put all the pieces together, that kids voice I kept hearing was coming from Eevee, it was at this point my jaw dropped shocked at what was happening, "Sa-say something again?" I needed to prove this theory before I lose my mind.
Eevee just sat there staring at me with a frightful look in her eyes she knew that something was wrong, "Sora Please eat, it will help". I was stunned by what I just figured out, I could understand Eevee maybe even other Pokemon, it seems each time that cold feeling came something else is going to change, first it was the tail and ears then it was this, I couldn't tell if something physical changed on my body but I didn't care right now as I tried to get my head around this latest development.
"I-I can understand you, this... this isn't good" my eyes were now fixed on the Eevee I couldn't stop staring. The Eevee didn't know what to make of this information, she didn't understand what was going on.
"Sora what do you mean?". I'm still in shock but I manage to start speaking again.
"I mean I can understand you, I know what your saying". I said just managing to get out the one sentence. Eevee looked at me with wide eyes only just getting what I meant.
"This is so cool, now we can talk to each other, there are so many things I want to..." Eevee was cut short by movement in the trees, Tom, Charmander and the Pidgey came out of nowhere running towards me, Tom stopped in front of me and knelt on one knee.
"Sora your up, how are you feeling?" Tom said he seemed relieved that I was up but he still had a concerned look about what happened last night.
"I'm fine Tom, well maybe not totally fine" I responded. Tom just looked at me with wide eyes.
"Sora what's going on?" he asked putting one hand on my shoulder.
"I'm kind of able to understand..." I got stopped my Tom who was shaking me.
"Sora I can't understand you, what's happening!?" Tom yelled out hoping to get through to me but I did understand what he was talking about.
"Tom what are you..." I stopped myself and put my hand over my mouth, 'It can't be, I can't be talking like that can I?' I thought, I slowly removed my hand and tried to speak, but this time I listen carefully at what I was saying, "umbreon um" I quickly put my hand back over my mouth and again I'm in shock, I look up at Tom he too was shocked at how I was speaking, no one could understand me but the pokemon.
"Sora can you speak at all?" Tom asked, I didn't know how to answer this since I didn't know myself, I just shrug my shoulders at him, "Ok Sora listen to me, concentrate on speaking English".
I closed my eyes and started to concentrate I didn't know what I was doing I thought I was speaking English it sounded like it but it wasn't, I hoped that after last night I remember English words at all. I slowly opened my mouth and tried to say something praying that Tom will understand.
"Tom can you understand me" I open my eyes to see Tom with a smile on his face, it seemed to have worked.
"Sora your back!" he said cheerfully, removing his hand from my shoulder.
"That's great but..." I looked down at Eevee, "I'm able to understand pokemon, which would explain why I was talking like that" Tom looked confused again but he started to piece it all together.
"So what happened last night made you like this?" Tom asked, he was getting it.
"Yeah it was the same thing with my tail and ears back at home" I replied, I saw Toms jaw dropped at what I said.
"So you saying that this happened to you before, back at home and didn't tell anybody you were in pain!" Tom started to yell, it seems that he didn't like me hiding this kind of stuff from him.
"Tom we talked about this yesterday, I couldn't tell anyone" I said. Tom seemed to calm down after remembering our conversation we had.
"Oh, right" Tom sighed, "So you can understand pokemon now, that's great".
"What no it isn't, it's more like a nightmare" I remember the dream I had and just trembled in fear before pushing the thought away.
"Well you can talk to Eevee, Charmander and Pidgey now that's something to be happy about".
"I guess" I didn't like what this transformation is doing to me but if I can't stop it I might as well enjoy the ability it has given me. The three pokemon started to crowed around me.
"So you can understand us huh?" Charmander asked, he sounds like a more grown up kid than the rest but a kid non the less, but it's so weird hearing them talk. I just nodded in response.
"Good" Charmander walked up to me and gave me a smack on the head.
"Ouch... what was that for!?" I rubbed my head it still isn't better from last night.
"My name is Coal, your dad gave that name so you could at least use it" Coal crossed his arms and looked away in irritation.
"Oh... I'm sorry I didn't know" I apologized, Coal didn't seem that angry about it so he forgave me, "Do you all have names?".
"I'm Luna!" the eevee spoke up, jumping around in joy.
"I'm Wing" the pidgey said, looking somewhat down, his voice was the other kid I heard when I woke up.
"Why wing?" I asked.
"When I was hatched I broke my wing falling out of a tree, I never really liked the name" Wing replied.
"Do you want us to call you something else?".
"No I'm used to it, please call me by that name" Wing again looked quite down.
"Okay", I looked at Tom he seemed quite confused with what was going on but he wasn't looking at me but at the jumping Eevee next to me. I calmed myself down, I thought about using English, someday this will get easier.
"Tom", Tom turned and looked at me surprised to hear me speak English.
"Oh your back are you... what were you talking about and why is Eevee so happy?" he again looked at the very happy eevee.
"I don't why she's so happy but they were telling me their names" I got Tom's attention back, "She's Luna" I pointed to her and see stopped jumping at the sound of her name and looked at me seeming to wait for me to say something to her, "He's Coal, my dad gave him that name" I looked at him, he seemed very happy that his name is finally being used, "And the new addition is Wing".
"Wow they have such cool names!" Tom is started to get excited over this new ability of mine, "What was their life like before.. do they have any hobbies... what's their favourite food... how is it..."
"Tom please no more questions me head still hurts from last night", I cried out holding my head.
"Oh... sorry Sora, I guess we have time for questions later" Tom rubbed his head sheepishly.
"We should start to pack, we should get to Viridian City today" I recalled Coal and walked to the tent, Tom did the same with Wing but left Luna out usual, at least the trip won't be boring.
We have been walking for a good 3 hours now and we haven't stopped talking since we left, Luna asked a mountain of questions for Tom and I to answer some of which we had no idea what she was talking about.
We were getting closer to the city at this point, we could just see the edge of town.
"Okay Sora before we continue you need to capture a new Pokemon, if you don't we might lose against Team Horizon when we meet" Tom grabbed my shoulder and squeezed hard to make sure I can't back down.
"Ouch... Tom that hurts" I cried out but he only squeezed harder, my tail was waging furiously hitting into him but doing nothing, "Okay, okay I will do it!" I finally gave in.
"Good now Ee- I mean Luna, can you track down a Pokemon for Sora?" Tom asked looking down at her.
"This is going to be fun!" She said and ran into the surrounding trees, I was about to go after her but Tom held me back.
"Wait for it..." is all he said, a minute later I could here a voice coming our way.
"Get this crazy fox away from me!" It sounded very much like a kid like the others, I think it was a boy. Soon after a Pokemon burst from the bush in front of us followed by Luna, they started to run around Tom and I.
"Call her off she's crazy!" the Pokemon cried.
"Oh come on just one little kiss" Luna said with a giggle. I start to giggle as well at what these two we talking about but I got interrupted by Tom.
"Well done Luna you found a plusle, nice find!" Tom yelled out. I looked at the bipedal mouse like pokemon. It's red cheeks with the indent of a plus on them, and now that I look at it more closely I notice it's tail is the same shape.
"Luna stop chasing the poor thing" I asked, Luna stopped next to Tom while the plusle ran down the path and stopped hoping the fox wasn't following him, he sighed, "Hello what's you name?" he just looked at me with a confused look, wondering why I would want to know its name, he looked down at Luna who smiled back at him.
"My name is Pulse now please call off the fox!" he went down on its belly putting it's arms over his head protecting it from Luna if she came after him again.
"Nice to meet Pulse, I'm Sora" Pulse looked up at me.
"You can understand me?" he asked getting up from the ground, when out of nowhere another Pokemon jumped out of the bush and knocked over Pulse.
"Where is she I will teach her to attack you!" it was another plusle trying to protect its friend, he looked around and saw us then immediately went behind Pulse in terror, "Please don't hurt us!" he cried.
"I'm not going to hurt you, I want to be friends" I replied, he looked from behind his friend with the same look Pulse was giving me.
"You can understand me?" the confused friend said.
"Yes, I just want to talk" I walked to them and stopped a few feet away and sat down on the ground, "So what's your name?".
"My name's Dash and my brother is Pulse" Dash came out from behind his brother.
"So your brothers huh?" they both nodded, still unsure about what is going on. I turned and looked at Tom, he couldn't understand what we were talking about but I think he just stunned by the fact were not fighting but talking.
"So how can you understand us?" Pulse spoke out, I turned my head back to them and let out a sigh.
"That's a long story, but just know I'm like you" I pointed to my ears and then grabbed my tail and brought it forwarded, the two Pokemon were shocked at what I was showing them.
"So... you not Human but Pokemon?" Dash asked still trying to wrap his little brain around all this.
"Well part Human and part Pokemon" I replied, "Sorry to scare you like that Pulse, Luna likes to play around".
"She scared us, we were just looking for food when she came out of nowhere demanding a kiss, yuck!" they were kids just like Luna, no wonder they got scared, but even I would be scared if Luna chased me for a kiss.
"Why did you send that crazy fox after me?" Pulse said.
"Oh..er... Tom wanted me to catch a Pokemon since we got these very bad people after us so we needed to protect ourselves, so he sent Luna to find a pokemon and I guess she found you guys" the two little Pokemon were processing the information I just gave them.
"So your saying you are going to attack us!?" the two Pokemon backed off slightly.
"No I'm not going to attack you, I don't like fighting other Pokemon, I want to become friends with them and learn more about them" I tried to calm them down, and it seemed to be working as they started to relax.
"So you want to be friends?" Dash said.
"We never had a friend before" Pulse added.
"You never had a friend before?" I asked, 'How can someone so cute and fun have no friends' I thought.
"No one likes us they say were too energetic for them" Dash said making both of them a little down.
"Well I'm looking for new friends to travel with, would you two like to be my friends?" I asked them like you would ask a kid something.
"So you do want to be friends?" Dash asked, "You mean it?".
"Yeah we need help and you two look like the strongest Pokemon I have ever seen!" I lied, they didn't seem that strong but those two reminded me of myself in a way.
"Does this mean we will travel with you?" Pulse asked.
"Well do you have family here?" I only ask since I don't want to take them away from their family, they looked down and shook there tiny heads, they were like me, no family either.
"Our parents were captured when we were young we never really knew them" they both sat on the ground looking even more depressed than before. 'I must bring them with me, I will show them what a family is like' I thought.
"Well then how about this, let's not be friends and instead be a family" I smiled at them and they looked up at me with confusion.
"You want to be... a family?" they both said at the same time with an innocent voice. I nodded and they looked at each other for what seemed like hours, I'm guessing they were thinking about what I said, they turned to me once again with a smile on there face.
"Okay then, lets be a family!" Dash yelled out jumping up and down with joy same with Pulse, I smiled at their joy, they probably never had someone be so nice to them before, I put my hands on my belt and pulled off two Pokeballs, I enlarged them and held it out in-front of me.
"Do you trust me?" I said with the Pokeballs laying in my hands. The two plusle looked at the balls then looked at me.
"You want to catch us?" They said falling silent from their joy from before.
"It's your choice, this way I can protect you better". They looked at each other to make sure that they want to do this, before long they nodded their heads at me, "Okay then" I tapped the balls against them and they opened with a bright red light and engulf them as it sucked them in. The balls in my hands shook from side to side with the red light flashing, before long the balls clicked confirming the catch, quickly I let them out and in another flash of light, the two plusle stood in front of me once again, "See now we can be a family".
"Please don't make us go back in there, it's dark and scary" They said, they must be like Luna not like being in their balls.
"What you rather be out here?" They both nodded, "But you will get tried very quickly from all the walking we will be doing", they didn't seem so consent on walking everywhere, "I know how about you hope on my shoulders you can ride on me where ever we travel" I smiled at them and no sooner did they hope on and made themselves comfortable, Pulse made his home on my right while dash was on my left, Dash soon started to play with my ear, "Dash please don't do that".
"Why it's fun" He giggled and Pulse joined in, I was starting to regret this already.
"Because I don't like, can you please stop?" I asked again.
"Fine" they both said and looked away from me.
"Come on I will introduce you to Tom and Luna" I got up and walked back to Tom who was tapping his foot in irritation for taking so long.
"So what happened?" I forgot Tom can't understand what a say when I talk to pokemon.
"Remember when you said that I needed to catch a new Pokemon, well now I got two smaller brothers" I looked to both of them on my shoulders and they smiled at me then I drew my attention back to Tom.
"So that whole time you were talking to them about coming along?".
"Yeah we are now a family, I will tell you later" Tom only looked at me, "Meet Pulse and Dash".
"Hiya, nice to meet you!" Dash said, but looked a bit confused when Tom didn't respond.
"He can't understand you guys only I can" I said in Pokespeak, Tom was lost again, "Oh sorry Tom they say hey".
"Sora your one person I will never figure out" Tom responded, I looked at Luna.
"Luna you be nice to them from now on okay?".
"Okey-dokey" she giggled.
"Come on Tom let's get into town we can talk more about this when we are at the Pokemon Center". I told him while walking past him.
"Er... sure we have a lot to talk about" Tom ran to catch up to me as we made our way into town.
A/N: Again thank you everyone for the responses that this story has gotten, I didn't mean for it to get so much attention since I was only doing this to improve my overall skill.
Again if you have any ideas, criticism, like/hate or you just want to say hey, just pop down a review and I will try and act upon it!
