Chapter 3:

The night was slowly growing as the teenagers slowly walked down the road out of Half Moon Bay. The Hoothoot's awoke from their sleep as they made a noise out into the night. The Pidgey's flew into their nest as they dreamed about the day they had flying around the ocean shore. And the Rattata's ran between the fields of grass catching food for themselves, quickly running to not be noticed by other pokemon.

Amethyst slowly sighed as she grew tired of walking. Her pace began to be slow and she begun to notice her brother being ahead.

"Jade! Wait up, I'm getting to tired to walk. Can we… like take a break?" She slowly asked out.

"What do you mean? We just left the town. Look, you can even see the town from here." Jade pointed out to his tired sister.

Amethyst sighed again as she slowly turned to view the town, "But… that's far away. That has to be… at least 50 miles." She slowly said trying to take a breath each time.

Jade sighed back at his sister. "No it isn't, now walk faster, we still have a long way to go." Jade said out.

"Yeah, don't remind me." Amethyst whispered to herself.

They continued to walk down the road that seemed too led to a small forest. It was starting to get dark outside and without any lights; nobody could see what was in front of them. The stars began to grow in the night sky and the yellow full moon was rising. Everything seemed to light up as the moon began to rise.

"Well Ame, this is our pit stop." Jade pointed out while calling his sister by her nick name.

"Ok, I have to problems with what you just said." Amethyst quickly said out. "One, I am not sleeping in the middle of the road where many different scary bugs habit. And two, don't call me Ame!"

His sister seemed to be a little pissed, but Jade didn't seem to care, "Whatever, you'll have to live with it if you're going to travel with me."

"Whatever." Amethyst scowled back at her brother.

Both of them slowly grabbed out their sleeping bags and got ready for bed. Jade wanted to fall asleep as fast as he could so he could travel more in the morning, but Amethyst seemed to be scared as she continued to hear the noises of the night.

"Jade? Ahh… Jade?" Amethyst quickly asked out, but no one was answering. She was beginning to get scared. "Oh! Maybe if I let my Eevee out, I will be able to sleep." The idea seemed great in her head as she grabbed the poke-ball and let out her pokemon.

The brown and white fox quietly called out as it seemed to be tired.

"Come sleep with me Eevee, I'm too scared to sleep by myself." Amethyst suggested.

Eevee tilted its head as she questioned at what Amethyst was suggesting. "Eve?"

"Yeah, come sleep with me, this could be a great way to start a bond… or whatever." Amethyst smiled as she wait for her pokemon to go to the sleeping bag.

Her Eevee didn't seem to have any idea of what she wanted to do, but sleeping with Amethyst wasn't on her mind. The fox sniffed the ground as she slowly walked away from her trainer.

"Eevee, what are you doing? Come back here right now." Amethyst quickly called out.

Her Eevee started going through the tall grass as it continued to sniff the area around it. Amethyst quickly got out of the sleeping bag to follow her pokemon.

"Eevee! Wait up!" She quickly yelled out.

Eevee stopped as she saw movement in the grass. Amethyst quickly ran up to Eevee as she grabbed the pokemon and watched the movement in the grass. Both of them slowly watched as the movement began to be faster. Amethyst slowly stepped back, trying to get away from the movement. Then suddenly the movement came out and Amethyst gave out a huge scream.

Jade awoken to hear his sister screaming out. He got up and noticed that the other teen wasn't in the sleeping bag. He stood up and ran to where the noise was coming from.

He saw his sister running back to the rest area with her Eevee following her.

"Jade, help me!" She called out.

"Help you with what!" He yelled out.

But, by the time he finished what he was saying, his sister was far past from Jade was at. Jade sighed as he slowly went back to his sleeping bag.

As he began to walk out, the movement in the grass came out. It was a Spinark just awoken from its sleep. It yawned as it crawled back into the grass.

Amethyst was back into her sleeping bag shaking as her pokemon watched the movement of her trainer.

"Are you okay?" Jade asked his shocked sister.

"I don't want to travel! I don't want to travel! I don't want to be attacked by scary bugs!" She screamed out repeating herself.

Jade sighed as he slowly went to his sister, "It's okay Amethyst. It must have been a Zigzagoon, or something like that."

"NO! It was a scary bug and it was going to eat me!" She yelled out.

"Bugs do not eat you." Jade confirmed.

Amethyst's Eevee went up to her trainer and tried to rub up against the shaken body. Amethyst got out of the bag and looked at what was touching her.

"Aww. Eevee, you're the best." She said out while grabbing her pokemon. She smiled as she hugged the fox.

Jade smiled and went up to his sister, "Get some sleep, you have your pokemon. It will protect you."

Amethyst looked back to her brother, "Thanks."

Jade turned around and went back to his bed to sleep, while Amethyst held her pokemon and put the covers over herself.

She smiled as she slowly went to sleep holding her pokemon.

The sun began to rise as all the night pokemon went back to sleep. The Pidgey's cheered as they saw the morning sun rise.

Jade and Amethyst awoken at the same time as they heard the noise of the cheering pokemon. Jade yawned as he saw his sister waking up, "Did you have a good night sleep?"

"Yeah, my Eevee was here to protect me." She said back smiling.

"That's good." He smiled back, "You ready to travel again?"

She looked back and nodded as she hold her pokemon tight. "Let's go!"
