Melody's P.O.V

"Let me go!" I demanded.

"NO!" the voice shouted in reply.

Then a shadow ball hit me and I screamed out in pain.

That isn't a normal shadow ball if I've ever seen one.

"Ok… so, have you ever heard of a group by the name of 'Dark Nights'?" the voice asked.

"No." I replied slowly.

"Are you sure?"

"Yes."

"Well then… welcome to Dark Nights' base!" the voice said, "Go and get cleaned up then we'll talk more while eating.

The two umbreons from before came up to me and unlocked the restraints and I fell onto my four legs.

"Follow us." one of the umbreons ordered.

I follow them since I didn't really have a choice and I couldn't teleport for some reason.

Not too long later…

"So, how are you?" the deep croaky voice asked.

"I'm fine." I replied, "You?"

"I'm good."

I couldn't make out what pokémon I was talking to. He was hidden in the darkness of the room.

"So, I have a proposal for you." he said.

"What ever it is I don't want it." I said.

"Let me say it first. I want you to join 'Dark Nights'."

"No!"

"But you could rule over the world with me."

I then used teleport, praying that it would work, and went near the lake. I then ran back to where me and Ryan lived.

A few minutes later…

When I got back I was panting for breath.

No one's P.O.V

Ryan walked up to Melody.

"Are you ok?" Ryan asked Melody.

"Some group by the name of 'Dark Nights' kidnapped me and asked me to join them but I refused and teleported away." Melody said.

"They didn't hurt you or anything?" Ryan asked.

"One of they attack me with shadow ball but… it wasn't any like shadow ball that I've see. It was bright red."

"Mom? Where are you?" a male voice could be heard that sounded like a child's voice.

"Who's there?" Ryan called out looking towards the direction the voice came from.

An eevee came out from the bushes that looked like he was only six years old.

"Who are you?" Melody asked.

"M-my name's Chrono." the eevee said, "I lost my mom and can't find her or where we live."

"Do you live in Treasure Town?" Melody asked.

"Y-yes." Chrono replied.

"We'll take you back." Ryan offered.

"R-really?" Chrono asked hopefully.

"Yes." Ryan replied.

Chrono smiled, "Thank you!"

"You coming, Melody?" Ryan asked.

"Urm… sure." Melody replied, sounding unsure.

"Are you sure?" Ryan asked.

Melody smiled, "anything to help someone."

"Let's just leave a note so Crystal knows where we are." Ryan said running to the clinic.

A few moments later Ryan came back.

"Let's go then." Ryan said.

"Let's." Melody said.

Then they all started heading towards Treasure Town.
