"Y-you." Shine stuttered.

Crystal nodded, "Let me tell some of the story."

Flashback (Crystal's P.O.V)

I was walking through the town when I saw Naomi, Ginger's mother, looking about. I walked up to her and saw a young eevee on her back.

"Hey Naomi!" I said.

"Oh, hi Crystal." she replied.

"How are you?" I asked.

"I'm fine." she said, smiling.

"Hello, Miss Crystal!" Ginger, the eevee on Naomi's back, said.

"Hello there, Ginger." I said.

"Crystal?" Naomi asked.

"Yeah?" I replied.

"C-could you...urm… t-t-t-t," then she started crying.

"Are you ok?" I asked concerned.

"Mommy?" Ginger asked.

I walked closer to Naomi but stopped when I was just a few centimetres in front of her.

That was the last time I saw her…

End Of Flashback (No One's P.O.V)

"What happened after?" Shine asked.

"I'll tell you later. Let's go back to Ginger now." Crystal replied.

Shine nodded and started to walk back with Crystal.

When they got back to the lake Ginger wasn't there.

"Ginger? Where are you?" Shine called out but got no reply.

"We better go look for her." Crystal said.

"Yeah." Shine said.

"No need to." said an unfamiliar voice.

Shine and Crystal turned around to see an umbreon.

"Who are you?" Crystal demanded.

"Just calm down and follow me." the umbreon said.

"Why should we?" Shine asked.

"Me and my friend have Ginger." the umbreon said.

"I guess we will but no funny business." Crystal said.

"Don't worry." the umbreon said, "just don't stare at my friend weirdly. She's really shy around new pokémon because of reasons that I'll let her say if she wants to… well actually you'll see."

"Ok." Shine said.

Shine and Crystal followed the umbreon for a bit until they came up to a clearing in the forest.

"Wow." Shine said as she, Crystal and the umbreon entered the clearing.

In the clearing there was beautiful flowers planted practically everywhere. There was a couple of houses on either side of another building that looked like a clinic but on both sides it had small fields growing different kinds of berries.

"Melody!" the umbreon called.

"Yeah?" a voice called back.

"I got Ginger's friends." the umbreon said.

"Urm… o-ok." the other voice said.

The umbreon ran towards the house on the left and entered it.

"I've never seen a place as beautiful as this before." Shine said.

"I know, it's amazing." Crystal said.

"H-hello there." said a new voice.

Walking towards Shine and Crystal was the umbreon and a gray espeon with black inside it's ears, dark blue eyes and a dark red gem.

"Hi." Shine said.

"Hello." Crystal said.

"I'm going to check on Ginger. Why don't you lot get acquainted," the umbreon said, "and by the way my name's Ryan."

"You only just told them your name?" the gray espeon asked.

"Yep." Ryan said and walked towards the clinic looking building and entered it.

"S-so… urm… my name is Melody." Melody, the gray espeon, said.

"My name's Shine." Shine said cheerfully.

"My name's is Crystal." Crystal said.

"I've never seen a pokémon like you before." Crystal said, "and you look amazing."

"R-really?" Melody stuttered.

"Yes." Crystal said.

"I agree." Shine said.

"I-I thought that you would've avoided me because I look like this." Melody said.

"I don't judge others by their appearance." Crystal said.

"No one should." Shine said.

Melody smiled, "Why don't you come into the clinic and see your friend."

"Ok." Shine said.

Crystal nodded.

"Just before we go in make sure to be quiet so you don't wake Ginger." Melody said as they walked towards the building.

They entered the clinic and went up the stairs to the right of the entrance. On the second floor there was six beds. Ginger was lying, unconscious, on the bed nearest to the stairs with Ryan standing next to it.

"Hey there." Ryan said quietly as he faced Melody, Shine and Crystal.

"Hi." Melody said just as quiet.

"W-where am… I?" Ginger said as she woke up.

Shine, Melody and Crystal rushed to the side of the bed.

Ginger's P.O.V

"W-where am… I?" I asked aloud as I opened my eyes.

All I could see were blurred figures leaning over me. As my vision cleared up I could make out the figures. There was a shiny eevee, a glaceon, an umbreon and a gray espeon.

"S-Shine… Crystal? Where… are we?" I asked recognizing the shiny eevee and glaceon.

"Ryan! In her ear, there's some kind of metal device." the gray espeon said.

"What?" the umbreon, who I supposed was Ryan, said going round to the other side of me.

I screamed out in pain and started to try and get away as the umbreon took a pair of tweezers and grabbed the device that was supposedly there and pulled it.

"Can you lot hold her still?" Ryan asked.

Shine, Crystal and the gray espeon said and took a hold of all of my legs.

"STOP IT! STOP IT! IT HURTS!" I screamed.

"We're gonna need to get it out." Ryan said.

"STOP IT!" I screamed ignoring Ryan.

"Keep a tight grip." Ryan said.

"STOP IT... PLEASE!" I shouted as tears starting pouring from my eyes.

"and… it's… out." Ryan said as the thing came out.

After a bit I reduced to sobbing.
