Chap 2

I do not own Pokemon Mystery Dungeon

It was now afternoon. Chloe was checking the treasure bag for supplies but found they were running low on food items. This worried Chloe a little she looked back at Chimchar who was fast asleep and sighed. She needed to go out and restock at Kecleon Market but didn't want to leave Chimchar alone. That's when Chloe noticed another pokemon coming down the steps.

"Oh hello Shaymin." She said.

"Hi Chloe I came right over when I heard that Chimchar was sick. It's nothing serious is it?" asked Shaymin sounding terribly concerned.

Chloe smiled.

"I don't think so. Just the flu."

Shaymin sighed with relief.

"Thank goodness for that"

"Actually I'm glad you're here Shaymin I needed to go out and restock on supplies think you could keep an eye on him while I'm gone?"

Shaymin nodded.

"Sure no problem."

Chloe smiled.

"Great thanks Shaymin just try to be careful not touch him unless you need to. We don't need two sick pokemon."

Shaymin giggled.

"Right of course."

Chloe smiled then after a quick wash she left Sharpedo Bluff and into Treasure Town.

"Why hello Chloe what can I do for you today?" asked the green Kecleon upon seeing Chloe approach their shop but then realised she was alone. "Say where's Chimchar? Isn't he normally with you?"

"Sorry not today he's sick with the flu." said Chloe.

"Oh my that's awful!" cried the purple Kecleon. "I hope he gets well soon."

Chloe nodded.

"Yeah me too. So you guys got any Apple and Oran Berries today?"

"Why yes luckily for you we just received a batch!" said Kecleon enthusiastically.

Just as Chloe had paid for everything Marill and Azurill arrived to buy some apples.

"Hi Chloe where's Chimchar?" asked Azurill. Chloe gave him a sad smile.

"I'm afraid he's not feeling well right now guys. He has the flu."

Marill and Azurill looked really shocked and sad.

"Oh no that's terrible!" cried Marill. "Our mum had the flu awhile back. That's why we did the shopping for her."

"She said that we did such a great job that we now get to do the shopping for her more often." said Azurill proudly. "But poor Chimchar is sick now huh? Can we see him?"

Chloe looked a little nervous.

"I don't think that's a good idea guys. The flu is very contagious I don't think your mother would appreciate me and Chimchar getting you guys sick."

Marill and Azurill looked a little disappointed.

"Oh."

Chloe felt a little bad so she gave it a little thought then said.

"Well let's ask her."

Marill and Azurill nodded looking happier.

"OK."

Marill and Azurill led Chloe to there house. It was quite a nice riverbed with clean air and flowers. The grass appeared greener here than in Treasure Town. Chloe then noticed an Azumarill making lunch.

"Oh that was quick boys didn't you go to Kecleon Market?"

Marill and Azurill both suddenly looked guilty. All this excitement made them forget all about it.

"Oops." they said.

Chloe stepped in.

"Sorry that was my fault. You see..."

Azumarill cut her off.

"Wait! Aren't you part of that team these two have been telling me about?" She asked.

"That's right Mama that's Chloe!" said Azurill pointing at Chloe with his tail.

"Azurill it's rude to point." scolded Azumarill gently then she went over and shook Chloe's paw.

"Hello Chloe it's nice to finally meet you. I've been meaning to thank you and your friend for keeping an eye on my boys for me and also for saving Azurill from that wicked Drowzee"

Chloe smiled.

"Oh no problem those two are really sweet."

"Mum don't forget. Drowzee turned good he even helped Team Firestorm wake Azurill up from that nightmare." said Marill.

"Yes I know Marill." laughed Azumarill. "So Chloe where is your partner? Marill and Azurill said you two are always together."

"That's why we came back Mama." said Azurill, "Chloe said Chimchar isn't feeling well she said he's got the flu."

"Oh dear that's terrible news." said Azumarill.

"Mum can we go see him? Please?" pleaded Marill.

Azumarill thought for a moment.

"Well alright but don't stay too long I don't want you two getting sick too."

Marill and Azurill jumped for joy.

"Yay!"

"In the meantime I'll make him some nice hot soup." said Azumarill.

Chloe smiled sweetly.

"Oh that's nice Azumarill but you don't have to."

"It's no trouble at all." said Azumarill. "Think of it as a thank you for keeping my boys out of trouble."

"Don't worry Mama makes really yummy soup." said Azurill.

Chloe laughed a little.

"Well OK thank you very much Azumarill."

"You're welcome." said Azumarill who was now getting everything ready.

Chloe turned to the brothers.

"Well shall we go?"

They both nodded.

"Yeah!"

So Chloe and the two siblings headed back to town and to Sharpedo's Bluff.

"OK I'm back Shaymin." said Chloe as she headed back down the steps. "How's Chimchar?"

Shaymin smiled.

"Still fast asleep. Oh who are the little guys following you?"

"Oh right you haven't met yet." said Chloe. "This is Marill and Azurill. Guys this is Shaymin she is one of our recruits."

Marill and Azurill waved shyly.

"Hi."

"Hi there" said Shaymin. "You two are really cute. Are you going to start an exploration team when you're older?"

Marill and Azurill looked at each other.

"Erm we don't know we never really thought about it." said Marill.

Shaymin laughed.

"Well you're still very young so I wouldn't worry about it just yet."

Chloe smiled.

"Well anyway thanks for taking care of Chimchar for me while I was gone Shaymin."

"No problem Chloe if you need someone to watch him again just let me know."

Chloe nodded.

"Will do."

Shaymin smiled and went back up the steps.

Chloe went up to her sleeping partner who was just waking up.

"Hey there Sleepyhead." said Chloe smiling. "How are you feeling?"

Chimchar slowly sat up.

"Not much better." he said. That's when he noticed Marill and Azurill at the doorway.

"Hey you guys what are you doing here?" he asked smiling a little.

Chloe giggled.

"They really wanted to see you."

"Yeah we wanted to make sure you were OK." said Azurill.

Marill nodded.

"Yeah we wanted to come see you so you would feel a little better."

Chimchar felt touched by this.

"Awww you guys...thanks a lot."

Moments later Azumarill came in with a bowl of soup.

"Hello Chimchar I heard I heard you were feeling under the weather so I made you some nice soup."

Chimchar smiled slightly.

"Wow thanks it looks good."

"No problem. You just eat as much as you can." said Azumarill.

Chimchar managed to eat over half before he began to feel sleepy again. So Azumarill decided to take the brothers home.

"Bye Chimchar hope you feel better soon" said Marill.

Chimchar waved.

"Yeah me too."

That night Chloe woke up to a loud scream. She shot up and saw Chimchar sitting up shaking and sweating. Chloe hurried over to him.

"Chimchar are you OK?"

Chimchar looked unsure of where he was so Chloe put her paw on his shoulder making him flinch.

"It's alright it's just me." she soothed. "You were just having a nightmare it's all over now."

Chimchar looked at Chloe for a few seconds then hugged her sobbing slightly.

"Ohh man. Chloe it felt so real."

Chloe smiled and held him close.

"Yeah dreams tend to feel real when you have a fever. She said.

Chimchar shivered.

"Darkrai came back...he was hurting you and I couldn't do anything."

Chloe felt sorry for Chimchar.

"Well don't worry it was just a dream."

Chimchar scowled.

"I hate him."

Chloe could hardly blame Chimchar for that. After all Darkrai tried to get rid of them and Chimchar even lost his father to Darkrai not too long ago. Chloe had admit that she didn't like Darkrai very much either. She looked down at Chimchar who appeared to be fast asleep again so she gently eased him back into bed then went back to bed herself.

Woah! I try to write a short story but I get so many ideas that it turns into a longer one. Go figure. Anyway yeah I guess you luck dogs get a third chapter which will be up as soon as I've written and proof-read it. ^ ^
