Another one, the other two that I said were short were actually relatively long. One almost as long as the longest chapter I've done. This one's gonna be around...(I assume) 900-1000 words. Thanks to everyone who's reading this. Please review! Now let's get to the part you've been waiting for:
--
"Hurry up, you Slowpoke!" Kera yelled cheerfully as she ran in front of me. I was close behind her, getting ready to jump on her and take her down. After a few more seconds of running, I did, and she smiled and we rested under a maple tree near by. It was a really nice day out. The sun was shining bright, and there wasn't a cloud in the cerulean sky. The tree tops provided excellent cover from the harmful rays. There was a gentle summer breeze, and Kera and I looked at the tree tops in wonder. Tailow and Pidgey flew above us, eager to hunt for their kits. The occasional Beautifly hovered around us before eating some nectar on nearby trees. It was like the whole world was peaceful for a few moments.
"Who do you think would win in a fight, Blake or that Scar guy from last night?" I blurted, breaking the peaceful silence. Kera looked at me in an odd way before turning her head and thinking.
"I think my dad can beat anyone!" she turned back to me and smiled happily.
"Me too..." I whispered, not sure why I brought it up anyway.
I got up and stretched my front paws forward before turning my head and looking at Kera. I got this weird feeling in the pit of my stomach before turning my head and blushing a little.
"Are you okay Saph?" Kera asked, a perplexed look on her face. It vanished quickly as she jumped on top of me, and laughed cheerfully. For once in my life, I laughed too. Instead of my usual routine, which was pushing her off and arguing with her about it. Both of us stopped laughing and just sat there for a second, looking at each other. Then Kera broke the awkward silence.
"Uhh, maybe we should go home?"
"Uh yeah, h-home sounds good." I stammered, making a mad dash for home as soon as she got off me. She yelled for me to wait for her, so I stopped until she caught up. Right after she caught up I started running again, eager to get home. I had to ask Blake what that weird feeling was, and fast.
--
A few minutes after getting home, I tackled Blake.
"I need your help, follow me!" I yelled, as I ran into the bushes in a straight direction for about thirty seconds then abruptly stopped. I waited for Blake, who was there about 3 seconds after I was. He was jogging and nearly caught up with me...damn those Umbreon and their long legs. After a little lecture about how it's rude to hit people for no reason, I told him what happened with me and Kera.
"...and then we just looked at each other for a minute!" I yelled, scared stiff about what happened.
"I see... it just had to be you..." he mumbled, with a weird look on his face.
"What do you mean?" I questioned, starting to get upset with the lack of information he was giving me.
"Nothing. Look, follow me back to the clearing. I have to tell Krystal something before we come back here. We're gonna have a little talk." he had a sinister smile on his face. I gulped and followed him back to the clearing. After a boring walk home, he walked up to Krystal and mumbled something in her ear about the Pidgey and Beedrill or something. Krystal had a look of fear on her face and was wide-eyed. He mumbled something I couldn't make out in her ear and pointed at me.
"YOU!" she snarled and jumped at me, but Blake apparently saw it coming and grabbed her before she could get to me.
"Eep." I backed up to a tree, ears drooping, too afraid to speak.
"Talk to her!" Blake said in a hushed-whisper to Krystal. Almost immediately she regained her calm composure and walked over to Kera.
--
"Wait, wait so the Beedrill wrestled the Pidgey?" I asked Blake. He had a big smirk on his face.
"Yep!" he had a toothy grin.
"I get it... what a stupid story." I grumbled.
"Why did you tell me this again?" Blake coughed, and turned around.
"No reason. Come on lets get back home." he gestured for me to follow, and we headed for home.
When we got back to the clearing, Krystal glared at me until I got to my bed. I looked over and it looked as though Kera's bed had been pulled farther away from mine.
"Must just be my imagination playing tricks on me." I thought to myself. I walked over to Kera and sat down next to her, earning an icy glare from Krystal.
"What do you wanna do tomorrow?" I asked her curiously.
"Let's play tag, and hide and seek!" she put her hands in the air and smiled at her idea. I chuckled. Hide and seek was her favorite game. Her fur blended in well and she was almost impossible to find.
"Deal." I announced with a smile on my face.
We ate dinner, the usual Oran Berries, while Blake and Krystal had a couple of Pidgey. Kera and I went to bed, and Krystal stared at me with her blood red eyes until I drifted to sleep.
