I groaned and sat up. I regretted it as I felt a stab of pain in my ribs. I rapped and arm around them and winced. "Leaf?" came a curious voice. I looked around and saw, blinding in with the plants, a small dog like creature. It was white apart from it's paws, which were brown, tail and a bit on it's head, which both were green. It's large eyes were filled with curiosity and, was that worry? "Are you worried about me?" I asked with a small smile. I could see this creature meant no ill will. It came out slowly and looked around cautiously. It was most likely frightened of Sebastian.
It came close to me and sniffed my ribs a bit. Then, it ran off into the bushes. I was, surprisingly, a bit sad to see it go. But, soon, it came back with some berries in a leaf. It laid the leaf at my side and nudge a berry toward my hand. I picked it up and looked at the creature "You aren't trying to poison me are you?" in response, it took a few of the berries into it's mouth and chewed them. It swallowed them and nudged them to my hand again. "Alright." I said popping the berry into my mouth.
I had never tasted anything so delightful! It was like a mixture of chocolate, raspberries, and cream. I looked down at the creature "Thank you. What's your name any way? You got one?" it smiled and seemed happy to have pleased me "Leafy Leafeon!" it chirped happily.
We sat there for a while eating the berries together. Soon, I began to notice my ribs had stopped hurting. I stood slowly and checked them. I felt no pain at all. I looked at Leafeon "Did you know the berries healed wounds?" the little thing smiled "Leaf!" it said proudly. I smiled and looked around "I wonder where Sebastian gone off to?" I wondered out loud. "Shall we go look for him?" Leafeon nodded and got to its feet. "Off we go then."

I woke to find my pokemon around me. I smiled, sat up, and stretched. "Flare?" asked Flareon. "I'm fine, what about you all?" they each let me know they were fine. Ash was a little ways away and looked fine. I turned to Flareon "I think I jinxed us last night when I said we had a long night ahead."
"Then, for the love of the god pokemon, don't say it again." came the voice of Yourila. I smiled at the girl as she came down from a tree followed by her loyal Aquareon. " You know, if it we were any other way, Aquareon would still choose you to be his trainer." she smiled "And Flareon and Espieon would be yours. That's how it works. They choose their trainer." I nodded "I remember when I first came here. You and I would make bets on what would choose who." her smile faltered "If a recall, you said that cousin of yours would be chosen by a Leafeon." I looked away at this. "Ciel and I were younger then. He's changed since we were children. To much for my taste." she sat next to me "That bad huh?" I nodded "I don't know why, but I don't trust him the way I used to. Something is off." I muttered.

I walked aimlessly through the woods with Leafeon at my heals. Suddenly, it stops and sniffs the air. The fur on it's back stick up and a growl come from its throat. "What's wrong?" I asked carefully. Suddenly, it shot a razor sharp leaf into the trees. There was a cry from the tree and another creature fell out. It looked like a mushroom in a dress. It had a small red gem on it's forehead. The leaf had cut its arm. "Raltz!" it cried as though asking Leafeon not to attack again. I took a step toward it. It cringed as I knelt down and took a look at the cut. It was bleeding pretty bad, but it would live. I pulled the tie from my neck and wrapped the wound.
Leafeon didn't seem to like this at first, but then got over it. "There," I said when I tied the tie tight enough. The little thing looked from me to the bandaged wound then back as if to say "Weren't you the one who's friend attacked me?" I smiled a bit "I can't control what Leafeon does." I said simply. Raltz giggled and my count of new friends went up by one.
