I woke up, not sure if I was really still alive. There was still the blue creature, but now there was a pink one standing by it, but they weren't looking at me.
"What is it?" asked the blue one
"I'm not sure.." the pink one responded. I assumed they're talking about me. I'd rather not be called 'it' but I didn't want them to know I was awake so I stayed quiet.
"I've never seen anything like it."
"It's definitely not a Pokémon I've seen before... Maybe it's not from around here"
What's a Pokémon? Have they never seen what a human looks like before?
"I wonder what it tastes like..."
"Karma, you have to stop trying to kill every Pokémon we meet. What if they're nice?"
"You know I'm just kidding... And I didn't try to kill it anyway. It was just scared of how great I am"
The pink one rolled his eyes before turning to me, seeing that I wasn't passed out anymore. "Hey, it's awake!"
I quickly put my hands over my face, expecting them to attack me. they walked toward me then I felt a gentle tug at my hand, and whatever was touching me was soft. I slowly uncovered my face and looked up at the pink creature
"Hey, don't be scared. We're friends" he smiled a little, looking at me. "My name is Klaus, I'm a sylveon. My friend here is Karma, he's a vaporeon."
Karma waved his paw then walked a little closer to me and began speaking
"So now you know who and what we are, so what exactly are you?"
He spoke so gently, but I still felt intimidated by him. "I- I'm Lucinai. or.. Luci. That's shorter and-"
He cut me off "that's nice, but what are you? I haven't seen you before, are you a legendary Pokémon?" He asked excitedly
"What's a Pokémon?"
They both stared at me before Karma asked again "what are you?"
"I'm- uh.. Im a human." I figured they would know what that is, even if it wasn't completely true. They just looked at me, confused by what I said.
"A human?" asked Klaus, before turning to Karma "I think we found an alien"
"Ooh, can we keep it?"
I realized they don't know what a human is.. "Hey, I'm not a pet!"
Karma spoke again "calm down, I'm just kidding. Are you hungry?"
I didn't really think about it, but I really was starving. "Uh.. yes.."
Klaus enthusiastically held out some big blue berry. "Here, eat this!" it looked like a blueberry, except larger and brighter color. I accepted it from him, happy to eat whatever I could get
"T- thank you" I said before I slowly began to eat the berry. As I ate it, I felt energized and refreshed. "What is this?"
"It's an Oran berry" Klaus responded "do you like it?"
"Yeah.. It's good"
Karma started talking again "so where do you live?"
"I.. Don't know.."
"You don't know where you live?"
I nodded, still eating the berry
"Would you like to stay with us? It's getting dark and we don't live far away."
I didn't see any better option so I agreed to go with them.
Karma was excited by that. "Yay! We get to keep it!"
"Would you please stop calling me it?"
He giggled. "Sorry.. Luci you said your name was?"
I nodded
"Okay! Well, let's go."
I stood and followed them into the forest.
Not too long later we reached a small town, but all the buildings seemed rather small. big enough to fit in, but much smaller than what I'm used to seeing. I followed Karma the vaporeon and Klaus the sylveon to one of the houses and Klaus spoke
"Here it is."
It was a small one-room building with two small piles of hay and a large stack of it against the wall.
"you can make your bed out of the extra hay, there's plenty for you to use"
I guess it's normal for them to sleep on hay instead of regular beds, if they even know what a bed is. But I didn't complain and just made a little bed out of hay and laid down.
They both smiled at me before curling up on their own piles of hay.
"We'll talk more tomorrow. It's been a long day" said Karma. And it really has been a long day, I somehow ended I up in what seems like a completely different world with talking animals. I guess it could be worse though.. At least I'm still alive. I closed my eyes and fell asleep.
