So.. Last chapter was kinda.. "Meh.." I've discovered I'm really bad at writing in third person.. Even though it was kinda Fortis's point of view..
I may re-write it after I get the story established...
Anyways! This chapter will be from Fara's point of view!

Also, I was listening to Giratina's battle remix, by GlitchXCity on you tube when I was writing the first part. It really helped me get into the mood, so maybe it will for you as well! :D

(Just a suggestion, don't kill meh.)


How to befriend a human

Running through the forest with Fortis close behind, I could feel the unavoidable impending doom in the air. It was intoxicating. At first there was only a hint that I quickly passed off as normal.. But as the minuits passed by and we ran closer to the impending disaster, I realized too late that what I felt was a warning.

As I felt the feeling grow in power, I realized that we could no longer escape it. We were just two poor souls that got sucked into the void of inevitability.

I was destined to be curious about that feeling. There was no way I wouldn't investigate it. After all, we Absol are creatures of disaster. It is our job to warn all who we can. We are the saviors, why would we need saving ourselves?

Oh, how wrong I was..

I wasn't some poor pokemon that got squished by a falling tree. It was us!

We were the poor souls who got trapped by whatever happened next! And there was no way to escape it, because as I came to the conclousion that we were the ones to be the focus of the disaster.. I was running straight to the very tree that was destined to fall in... About one and a half seconds..

I snapped out of my thoughts about a second too late. Of course I heard Fortis somewhere behind me, yelling my name trying to snap me out of my thoughts. But my mind worked a little too well. I had unconciously traced a path over all the roots and saplings in the forest, straight to the beacon emenating disaster...And into it...

I thought briefly of how majestic this old tree would have looked when it was alive. But that must have been years ago. And I could see now, how the tree fell.. There was Absol-utley (Pok-e-puns!) no way I could have avoided this. The tree was to fall by me ramming into it.. Having nowhere near enough time to slow down, I figured I might as well embrace destiny and make my job easier... I didn't know Cut, but I hoped a Take Down would work..

I lunged for the ancient tree, closed my eyes, and hoped for the best.

Fortis probably thinks I'm crazy.

I heard the tree snap, and felt the splinters scrape against my underside as I tackled it. And then, to my surprize, there was a bright flash of light. I opened my eyes and landed on the ground next to the now fallen tree. I looked over my shoulder at Fortis to make shure he was alright. He was standing at most, twelve feet away from me. Looking past me to the other side of the tree, with a suprised, yet curious expression.

I followed his gaze to the other side of the tree. And to my surprize there was now a human laying down on the opposite side of the tree from me.

And then I felt it. The untapped potential to destroy, radiating from him in a steady wave.

I could feel it get stronger in the near future, probably when he woke up. But it still didn't cross the line to actually happening.

I heard Fortis walk to my side and whisper to me. "What now?"

"Just watch." I told him. "We should wait for him to move first."


We waited there for a few minutes, for him to wake up, but nothing happened. He just lay there on the ground, a weird crescent shaped metal object laying about a foot away from his right shoulder.

Then Fortis whispered to me a little too loudly. "Do you-" He probably had something to say But as soon as the sounds left his mouth, the human's eyes snapped open.

We both went dead silent, to the point where I had stopped breathing. I closed my eyes and inhaled very slowly, to not make a sound, and tried to calm my breathing.

I opened them when I was satisfied with my heart-rate, and noticed the human had hardly changed.

He was still breathing at roughly the same pace. The only thing that was different was... He was staring right at me...

We stared at each other for probably two minutes. Then I remembered to breathe.

Luckily Fortis decided to break the awkward and deadly silence. "Umm.. What now?.." The human finally stopped staring at me and instaed focused on the strange object by his shoulder. Reached up with his right hand and grabbed it. Then pushed himself up with his left, and started to examine the object. Seeming to forget us entirely. He brought it up to his ear and listened for something.

Fortis tried talking again. "What is he-" But was again silenced by the human looking directly at him. He then looked at the object he held, then back to Fortis. Then he put it on his head, over his ears. It looked like it was meant to fit there. But for what reason I couldn't guess.

He then turned back to Fortis and I, put the palm of his hand out and upward, in some sort of gesture, and spoke. "Again, please?" Both me and Fortis were confused at this. Made obvious by Fortis saying. "What?" But I guess that was all he needed..

He closed his eyes, gritted his teeth, and made a gesture with his right hand that I recognized from playing with Fortis as a 'fistpump'. He then stood up and smiled at us. "Thanks for waiting for me!" "My name is..." His smile disappeared for a spit second, and his eyes kinda unfocused. Then he went back to smiling at us. "Terrance Casey!" "But you can just call me Terrance"

We just stared at him. Fortis could only repeat himself. "What?"

I couldn't think of what to do. The feeling of disaster hadn't changed like I thought it would when he woke up. It had stayed the same. I guess that meant... I had no idea what that meant. If it meant anything at all.

The human.. or.. Terrance.. Sat down and crossed his legs underneath himself, and just kept looking at us with that nonchalant smile. "look, I know you wont hurt me because you had plenty of time to do so when I was on the ground and vulnerable." He looked between us with a more serious and sincere expression. I was stunned that he didn't even seem a little confused at his situation. "And you know I won't hurt you because for one, there's no way I could fight with either of you. And two, you didn't hurt me. Sound good?" He had a weird way of expressing himself when he was talking. He would move his hands and head slightly, along with what he was talking about. It was slightly odd. Then he looked like he remembered something. "Oh! And this headset that was next to me can apparently translate your native language.." He looked at us and shrugged. "Someone had some foresight.."

Fortis came out of his stupor and decided to speak up finally. "So.. why were you in a tree?"

He looked at Fortis for a few seconds. "I was in a tree?" Then he looked at the fallen tree that he came from, and mumbled to himself. "I was in a tree.." He then looked back at us with a slightly confused look. "Well.. That's nifty." He then shrugged and stood up. "So.. What happened?" He asked us as he walked towards the base of the tree to examine it. He was mindful of our space though. I could tell he didn't want to walk right up to us when we had hardly even spoke to him. Or at least that's what I was assuming. I was lost in thought when Fortis again broke the silence. "Well you see.." He looked at me, and gestured toward me, "My friend Fara here has the ability to sense incoming disasters.." Terrance had reached the stump of the tree, and had been examining the splintered remains of it. But he turned his attention to us when Fortis started talking. "So..." He asked Fortis, implying him to continue. Fortis answered his unasked question. "Well.. She felt something about to happen, and figured she would try to save anyone she could. But.." He then looked at me. "She could explain it to us better."

Oh yeah.. He doesn't know.I thought to myself.

They both looked at me expectantly. I opened my mouth to say something, but I didn't know what to say. I sat there wondering how to explain to them what it's like to be an Absol. Fortis tried to hurry me up by prompting me to speak. "We were a little ways away from here, playing a game of tag, when she felt something.."

So I finally decided to take the hint and I explained to them the different things I was feeling as I was running through the woods.


Terrance stood there processing what had happened before we had released him from the tree, and presumably, what it meant about him. "Huh." He looked from me to Fortis and then back to me. "Well, I know I can't just stay out here in the middle of the forest." He looked around the clearing a bit, and then back at us. "Which way leads out?"

Fortis spoke up first. "Well there's a trail to the east that should lead to a town." Then Fortis looked over to me. I could tell he was wondering if we should go with him, so I answered both of them at once. "We will be coming with you." Terrance brought his focus to me. "I found you and released you. So I need to protect you until this disastrous indecision that is surrounding you goes away."

"Fair enough." He said. Then he turned east, and started walking. I was surprised he knew which way east was. Since the sun was almost dead centre in the sky. He must have looked at the moss on the trees.

"You coming Fara?" Fortis asked me.

"Oh, yeah. Sorry." I snapped out of my thoughts and started walking east with my friend Fortis, and the enigma that called himself Terrance.


I just realized.. I HAVEN'T UPDATED SINCE LAST YEAR! D:

Sorry for the wait. I couldn't figure out how to finish the chapter...

It took me about a week to write the last 200 words... I am a sad, sad individual...

Anyways.. Please review!
