It was noon. In a few hours Psy would come and demand a decision. What would I say? What would happen to my ... friends? One question just seemed to lead to another question. I sighed and turned to Kera, who also seemed to be troubled. I licked her cheek before turning my head and continuing to look around the clearing. Teir seemed to be his absent-minded self, trying to catch his tail. Razor was getting beat by Droplet for some unknown reason, as usual. I started grooming myself, trying to keep my mind off the thoughts that just kept digging into my mind. I spent most of the morning learning some of the new attacks that come with being an Umbreon. Good thing I had paid attention to Blake when he was hunting, otherwise I'd be lost. I cringed at the thought of Blake. Although he had taken me in, and protected me numerous times, the dream I had made me rethink him entirely. I ignored the thoughts, and decided to train my new skills. I stood up, casually stretching, and walked in front of the nearest tree.
"Training again, Saph?" Kera questioned, and I nodded in reply. I shot a powerful Dark Pulse at the tree and added on to the damage with an enormous Shadow Ball.
"Wow, you're getting good at that! Much better than before!" Teir praised, and I looked at him confused. He had been watching me train? He was asleep.
"Uh, yeah, thanks." I replied, still very much confused. I shrugged it off and practiced my Iron Tail. It was the easiest move for me to learn, as the first time I used it was against the Raticate, but it was the hardest to perfect. I had never been able to conjure one nearly as good as the one I had used then. I growled, mad at myself for being unable to perfect the attack, and was about to give up when Droplet spoke.
"You have to concentrate all your energy in your tail, or you'll never get it." she spoke calmly. I looked at her for a second before attempting it again. I concentrated all my energy into my tail and swung my body hard as hard as I could. I looked at the mark and smirked. It wasn't perfect, but it was an obvious improvement. A few more and I had it down. I smiled in satisfaction and decided to test out one of my newer attacks: Wish.
"Razor, I need your help." I said lazily. He looked over and chuckled.
"And why should I help you?" he scoffed.
"I'll give you two reasons. One: It involves hurting me. Two: That." I pointed out Droplet who was growling at him.
"The first was good enough for me." he said nonchalantly, while walking over to me.
"Good boy." I smiled, and he growled.
"All right, hit me."
He smiled and shot a small green ball of energy. I let it hit me directly in the chest and I flew back a few feet or so. I scowled and then felt it. The sudden spark energy flow through my body. About 30 seconds later, it happened again and my wound was gone. Razor frowned, and immediately asked if we could do it again. I agreed, and about 3 Energy Balls later, I had had enough practice with Wish. The constant use tired me out, so to many could be fatal in battle.
"And Arceus knows whats going to happen in two hours..." I thought to myself before continuing my training.
I decided that Dark Pulse would be the best move to practice next, considering it was the strongest move I knew, and it was a Dark type move. I felt the familiar pulse run through my body, and focused all my outside of my body. The dark aura enveloped me and I shot it at a nearby tree. The damage was significant and I smiled in excitement. I shot a few more and decided that it was time to spar with someone.
"But who? Sad as it is, I'd lose against Razor and Droplet. Kera is strong, but I would most likely hold back." I sighed and turned my head. I was about to give up when I saw the answer to my problem: Teir. He noticed me staring and gave me a confused look.
"Teir, how would you like to spar with me?" As expected, he wouldn't deny a chance to train with me.
"Of course!" he jumped up and ran over to me. I smirked at the cheerful look on his and got prepared to shoot a Shadow Ball at him. Everyone was watching us with interest, and a few wild Pidgey had roosted on a branch to get a good view.
"This is gonna be an easy win." I thought to myself, still smirking.
"Ready...go!" I yelled, immediately shooting an extremely powerful Shadow Ball at Teir. He dodged it easily and laughed like it was a game. I snarled and shot a Dark Pulse at him, which once again he dodged easily. I was about to shoot another Dark Pulse when his scythe started glowing an eery purple. I got on my guard and waited for the impending attack. Without warning, the purple dullde down to the regular gray. I dropped my guard for just a second, and he jerked his head down. The purple aura slashed right into my face, leaving a deep gash. I whimpered in pain and Teir's scythe grew white.
"I've got to attack before he does!" I thought to myself and shot a Dark Pulse. Teir swung his scythe down, and a mini-tornado appeared, shooting for the Dark Pulse. It absorbed the energy and shot it back at me, ten fold, sending me flying into a nearby tree.
"Are you okay?!" Teir yelled, running up to me. Kera had also came and was rubbing up against me. I stood up slowly.
"I'm fine." I scowled.
"Are you sure?" Teir questioned.
"I'm fine." I retorted, walking towards my tree, and resting. I sighed, and put my head down for a quick nap. I subconsciously felt Kera lay down next to me before I drifted to sleep.

I yawned and licked Kera's cheek. I had woken up about fifteen minutes ago. Everyone else was wide awake with a concerned look on all their faces. I scowled when I saw Teir, and his head drooped. As if on cue Psy teleported in front of me.
"Have you made your decision?" the Espon asked me, a sick smile on his face.
"Never." I scowled, baring my teeth.
"Haha, suit yourself. Time to die, Umbreon." Psy growled.
"The only one dying here is you, Psy." an unkown voice boomed. An Umbreon stepped out of the woods.
"Blake?!"
