Chapter 6

I Need A Medic!

"Wake up, Euph! You will miss breakfast. I made berry soup!"

Euphoria woke up. The sky was bright blue and the starly were singing.

"Uhhhh…" Euphoria sat up. Felix was looking down at her from his grill. An amazing scent wafted from a bowl on top of it. She noticed Pichu was stirring it with a long spoon.

"Breakfast is almost ready. You should go find Shayshay and Eve. They left that way a little while ago." Felix pointed into the forest at the edge of the road.

"Fine…" Euphoria walked to the forest groggily, almost tripping.

She turned around a bush. What she saw shocked her.

Eve was slaying down there. Eve's face was all red, and her ears lay flat. She looked very sick. The expression on her face was full of pain. Shayshay was bending over her.

"Euphoria! Help! Eve is very sick! We were playing hide and seek, and when I found her she was looking sick. We were going back, when Eve collapsed. Go! Get Felix!"

Euph ran as fast as her legs would take her.

She stopped in front of Felix, who was adding spices to the soup. "Felix! Felix! Help! It's Eve! Follow me!" Euph ran back into the forest.

Felix grabbed his bag, and ran after her. He realized something was wrong as Euphoria's face had been very panicked.

Felix bent down next to Eve. He looked unsure. He pulled a revival herb out of his bag.

"Here eat this." He put the bitter herb in her mouth. Eve swallowed, cringing at the taste. "It doesn't seem to have worked. In fact she seems to be getting worse. We have to go to the pokémon center! The closest is in Sandgem Town." Felix grabbed Eve and they rushed back to camp. Felix set down Eve carefully, and packed the soup and the grill in his bag. He pulled out Pichu's pokéball. "Return. Euph, Shayshay get on my back." He picked up Eve, who was shaking, and the others climbed up his shirt and onto his shoulders. They rushed across the path towards Sandgem Town.

A trainer with black clothes and gray eyes was standing in the path. His eyes were unheeding to the obviously sick Eve. "Hey, let's battle."

Felix ran past him.

"Hey! Where do you think you're going! You are not running away from this battle!"

Felix kept on running.

He ran into the town and straight to the Pokémon Center. Immediately after seeing Eve, Nurse Joy, hurried to them and took Eve. She hurried through the door in the back.

They waited for Nurse Joy to return.

Nurse Joy handed Eve back. "I'm sorry… There is nothing we can do. We tried everything." She turned and shed a tear.

They walked out of the Pokémon Center. The automatic doors closed behind them.

"I guess we will have to go to my mother. She is a great breeder. She actually traveled with your mom Euph."

"Really? We should take Eve there. Where does she live?"

"Twinleaf Town. It is right past route 201."

"Let's hurry! You two can talk later! Eve is looking even worse!" Shayshay looked annoyed. She was right though; Eve's face showed great distress.

Felix ran to route 201.

Halfway there, under the shade of the trees, was the gray-eyed trainer from earlier.

"Hey. Nobody runs from a battle with me."

Author's Notes:

What do you think of the mysterious trainer so far?

Personally, I have always wanted to hear Nurse Joy say that.

Narrator: Will they defeat the mysterious trainer? Will they make it to Twinleaf Town in time? Find out next time as our heroes' journey continues!
