Allright, I got enough reviews to continue! Thanks to those that did, and those that didn't can just go and die for all I care. Not really, but you get the point right?

Pretty Little Flower

5

"Houndoom, you okay?" Arcanine knocked on the door.

"Yeah, you should come in…." Her voice soft.

The door cracked open, and light behind him flooded in, he saw her sitting on her bed. The lamp next to her was glowing faintly, and something was in her lap. He took a step closer, and saw the color pink.

"The Egg hatched, it's a Cherubi Half." She smiled at the sleeping girl in her arms. "Now what?" She looked up at him, her eyes pleading.

"Well, we've got to raise it. We as in you and I, she needs parent figures. We didn't have them and that caused a lot of pain for us." He held his chin. "Now, what are you going to name her? She needs a name."

"I was thinking of Blossom, because she's a pretty little flower." She glanced around the room, looking for a small blanket.

"Here, she should be covered when she's sleeping, we don't want her to catch a cold." She tossed her an old blanket from a drawer.

"Arcanine?"

"What?"

"Nothing, never mind. You should go to see if there's any work." She sat back and sighed.

"Sure, but if you wanted to be alone all you had to do was say so." He gave her his lopsided grin, and closed the door.

'That idiot! My smart idiot.' She thought. 'I like him, a lot more than he thinks… he views me as a sister, not a lover…. It hurts… why does it hurt? Why am I so weak? I want to hold him, for him to be mine, for him to hold me…. I want us to raise this kid like a family the way he thinks, but it would cause me to hurt. I love that flirt, he could get any girl he wanted. He could get one more suited for him, not a battle hungry assassin…'

She hunched over, and let the tears slip. Blossom stirred.

"Mommy, what's the matter?" Her small hands cupped Houndoom's face.

"Nothing, I'm just sad." She smiled sadly.

"Why? Something bad happen?" Blossom snuggled into her chest.

"Yeah," she thought for a minute, 'this kid thinks I'm it's mother… oh well…' "Mommy likes someone, but he doesn't like me back." She hugged the child to her body.

"I make it better!" She giggled and clapped. She held her Mothers face, and touched foreheads. "I'll give you my happy thoughts! Your bad ones with go far away now!" She kissed Houndoom's cheek, and got off the bed. "Can I have some food?" Her stomach gurgled.

"Sure." Houndoom smiled, a nice smile this time, and led her to the kitchen.

O-O-O-O

"Is Typhlosion in today?" Arcanine asked the receptionist.

"Do you have an appointment with him?" Her voice cold.

"Nah, just a friend wanting to say hi." He smiled an winked.

"Doesn't affect me anymore, get out of here." She pointed to the exit.

"Damn, it's been awhile since someone turned me down…" He slinked out of there. 'Now to go find an air duct….' He smirked, his bangs covering his eyes. He was a bad-boy to the core, and he would rely on the skills he had picked up to get what he wanted.

O-O-O-O

"All right! You and I gotta go get some work. We need money for food!" Blossom clapped her hands, and jumped onto Houndoom's back.

"Hungry!"

"Kay, now let's go." She closed the door, locking it behind them.

"Food!" Houndoom walked silently through the hallways, hoping to stay out of everyone's sight.

"Hey, you got any jobs that need to be done? Preferably killing, torturing, or kidnapping someone." She leaned up against the counter.

"Ahhh, what's your name?"

"Houndoom, I believe Banette or Charizard set up a file for me." She picked her teeth.

"Ahh, here it is. It has a list of jobs to do." The girl was wide-eyes, the jobs had scared her.

"Great, these are my kind of jobs. Let's go, Blossom." She smiled at the child, and they both left for work.

O-O-O-O

Arcanine used all of his cunning to sneak into Typhlosion's office. Typhlosion hated being stuck in the office, but he a job to do.

"Yo." Arcanine climbed into the window.

"I was expecting you to come that way." He was organizing papers on Halfs in the vicinity.

"If you knew that, then you know what I'm going to ask." Arcanine sat in a chair in the corner.

Yep, I sure do."

"Aren't you a little young to be working in an office like this?" Arcanine twirled in the chair.

"Yeah, I am, but I have to do it. Charizard takes care of the media, while I take care of the Halfs. Now, for your question….." He let it hang in the air before launching into the question no one had asked, but everyone knew.

O-O-O-O

"You gotta be quiet, kay? If you're quiet you can stay with me when I go in." Houndoom put her finger to Cherubi's mouth, the child nodded her agreement.

"All right, let's go." Houndoom put Cherubi on her back, and they crept into the warehouse.

This place was a favorite haunt for the ex-scientists who still liked to play God.

She walked in the shadows, remaining hidden wherever she went. She crept along the dimly lit spaces that seemed to be provided for her to crawl through.

Cherubi started to yank o her shoulder, trying to show her something, but it was too late.

A sharp pain on the back of her head told her that it was all over. Her eyes rolled back, and she fell to the ground. Cherubi was calling for her desperately, but he couldn't find it in her to answer her pleas.

The need to sleep grew, and the velvety folds of sleep encased her being against her will.

Yep, the Plot now truly beings! Hahaha, so please review. I would like to hear your thoughts on it all!
