"Hrghhh...Grrrrr...Hurgh!!!"

I clenched my teeth down hard until my gums were bleeding. I tightened my fists so hard my knuckles were turning white.

I was so angry I could barely contain it.

No matter how many people I bumped into or shoved aside I just didn't care. But keeping it all inside was just killing me I just had to let some of it out.

"Of all the- Rargh! How could I lose! It makes my blood boil!! HOW COULD I LOSE TO THAT-THAT-THAT-CREEP!!!"

I felt my fur go hot despite the evening coolness. I felt so stressed out I was practically dripping in sweat.

And all my mouth tasted of was salt, sweat, and blood.

The tears were pouring down before I could stop them.

Even as I gritted my teeth it was not stopping the lump in my throat.

"RARRGH!!! DAMN IT!!!"

I punched down on the sidewalk hard immediately feeling pain.

But I did not stop because I was trying to force my frustration away.

"DAMN IT! DAMN IT! DAMN IT! DAMN IT! DAMN IT! DAMN IT ALL!!!!"

I stopped slighty wincing from the pain.

I gently massaged my bloodied fist as I gasped the sobs down.

"This is so unfair...ehehehehe..."

The hot streaks came pouring down as I placed my pads on the sidewalk.

"I have never lost...Eeha...Why did it have to start now?"

But as they feel down I realized how childish I was acting and shook my head to snap out of it.

I stood up and quickly wiped away the remainder of them, being careful not to spread any blood on my face.

When I started to head home though I heard something trailing after me in the shadows.

"Whose there?"

"It's me again you bully!"

"Oh it's you again?"

I turned around in amusement to see Fennekin step out of the shadows towards me.

"*Eevee! Today you shall pay for being cruel to my boyfriend!!"

"Uh who?"

"Riolu, that's who!"

"Ugh! Okay first of all, you two aren't even dating. Second, that just creepy. And three I don't really care about your reasons for having a grudge against me. I only am strict to him because he's too weak. Especially you. You annoying little b*."

"Riolu is not! He only wishes to keep his friends safe, and that overshadows anything you say about him that you think makes him weak. Something you will never understand! That's why I will defeat you one day and protect them from you! So this time no holding back!"

She tosses her Ember at me with determination, yet way too easy for me to dodge it.

"That was only luck! You'll need more than that to dodge this!"

She charged at me with a rapid Scratch attack. But she moved so slow it was like I was dodging air.

So out of boredom I tripped her and rapidly Double Kicked her in the face away.

"Aaaaahhhh!!! Oof!"

I started readying energy to fire a Shadow Ball.

Once she sat up, she immeadiately tensed when I started taunting her with it.

"Give up?"

"Tch! Never!!!"

I slapped my paw away and quickly scratched my face before I could even react.

"RARRRRGGGHHH!!! TAKE THIS!"

I closed my eyes bracing for the final scratch.

But I felt nothing but a tap.

I opened my eyes and felt my face, no cuts.

"What that all?"

"Wha- No mark?! But I-"

WHACK!

I uppercutted Fennekin in her chin and sent her flying into a nearby dumpster.

I blew on my fist and started walking away.

"HEY!"

I paused at the traffic light and pressed the button.

"YOU WILL PAY FOR THIS *EEVEE!!! I SWEAR IT!! I'LL KILL YOU!!! "

"Good luck with that."

The light turned green and I continued my walk home.

*30 minutes later

I quietly shut the door and started heading upstairs. When I heard someone walk out of the living room and pause when they saw me.

"*Eevee? Where were you?! Your mother and I were worried sick! Why did you storm off like that?!"

"Dad...Please I'm just not in the mood to talk right now. I just want to go to bed so please don't bug me."

"What happenned to your arm?"

I flinched as my dad noticed my injury and grabbed my arm to examine it.

"Argh...*Eevee please stop getting into fights. You worry the both of us everyday and I think now is the time for you to stop. Do you hear me?"

But I pulled away and started heading to bed.

"If you're not going to listen to me at least wrap up your fist already. Seeing you bleeding is making me sad, at least take care of yourself from now on. For me and mom okay *Eevee?"

"Hmph. Fine."

I said just before slamming the door.

I tossed my backpack aside and went to go take a quick shower.

*15 minutes later

After I got out and dried myself, my fist ached from the pain.

Even more when I put gauze on it.

"Oww, that stings!...But it must be...done..."

As I wrapped it up, I started remembering my hometown in the Kanto Region.

"Aww, I miss all the snow. It was almost all year round too. But no, we had to move here!"

I stepped out of the bathroom and collapsed onto my bed.

"Why did we have to move here?"

I used to live in a small rural community below Mt Silver in the Kanto Region. And since we lived so close, snow stayed around until around late April.

My secret sanctuary resides there, as well as my family; The Flareons. Over a century of Flareons in my family and ancestry. Even my parents are both Flareon.

Except my dad was one of the first to marry into our household. He even sticked to family tradition by evolving into a Flareon at 18, all to keep dating and eventually marrying my mother.

And one day, when I turn 18, I'll be a Flareon too.

It's considered a tradition in the household. Our saying is 'Only those with the warmest of inner fire, can survive and thrive even in the coldest of times.'

We all take it to heart and it became our family motto.

We've done it for so long and have thrived because of it ever since. That place will always be my home, no matter where I am it always will be.

"I hate it here. This place is too hot. I will never like it here dad. Never."

I cursed this place as much as I can until I began to tire myself out.

I dozed off and was slowly casted into the dream I've been having since we moved here. And the Pokemon who spoke always seemed otherworldly in my dream.

"Are you ready to be the one to change your fate *Eevee?"
