Authoress: Yay! So many reviews! ^_^ Anyway, yall are right, Jennifer was transformed into an Eevee, and the first person to guess correctly was Paladin Dragoon, im introducing Firewind the Ponyta into this chapter! She'll stay for two chapters since she comes in so late in this chapter.
-On another note, I got so many requests to put in pokemon, that I've decided to do them all, each in the order they reviewed. So next would be a Marowak named Skull submitted by DJ-Latios, Dragonite by ACME-Rian (she didn't give a nickname but im ok with that since most of my character's don't have them either), and finally a Mudkip named Carly.
There's gonna be a guest star every chapter, and I'll letcha noe how that works afterwards. Here goes…

*~General POV~*
Espeon awoke with a start and glanced up at the sky. At the realization of what time it was she stood up. "We've slept too long." She spoke loudly enough so everyone would wake up.
"Where are we going?" Flareon yawned.
"To the brat's place, right?" Umbreon scoffed.
"Yes," Espeon replied. "But don't call the girl names when we get there, Umbreon. If we do, we stoop to her level, and it also won't help the fact that we're trying to change her attitude."
"Right, sorry," Umbreon mumbled back.
"Only me, Umbreon, and Tat are going to get Jennifer. Tatta, you'll remain here incase a human comes by – the last thing we need is someone destroying our only home."
"Ok," Tatta agreed and nodded.
"Where are we going?" Vaporeon spoke up.
"You three are going to see Stephanie. She should be at the tower right now if what Tat heard was correct, and she'll need you especially, Flareon, for your warmth." The three nodded.
"We all have to go now, the sun's already risen. Let's go, Vaporeon, Flareon." Jolteon led the way out, and Vaporeon waited for the young Flareon to catch up before following. The others watched her graceful tail disappear around the corner.
"She's probably already awoken," Espeon said then. "I'll transport us there, it'll be much quicker."
Umbreon and Tat each touched Espeon's tail, and she closed her eyes. "Be careful," Tatta said to Tat as they began to fade.
"Don't worry, I will." With that the three completely vanished into a mist of glitter, and Tatta manned her station in front of the entrance of their home sweet home.
~*~
*~Jennifer's POV~*
The shock had officially worn off about two minutes later, and I was now in a state of pure panic. I'm a pokemon!? A damn pokemon! What am I going to do? What if mom or dad sees me like this? What will they think? All these things crashed into my mind all at one time, and I paced my room.
Steph will help me. She's the one who knows all about these…things. She better know what to do, or I'll - I thought as I ran for my door, but was cut off. I had been looking at my feet to make sure I wouldn't trip and I collided with something incredibly hard and fell backwards. I lifted my dizzy head up to find the object I had hit – my closed door. I cussed under my breath as I looked up at the doorknob three feet over my head.
How am I gonna get out of here now? I looked around the room several times before spotting it – an open window. Cautiously as I could, I crawled clumsily out onto the sill and looked down at a good 10-foot drop into some bushes.
It was my only choice, so I squeezed my eyes shut, hoped for the best, and jumped. I squealed as I fell, feeling sick to my stomach at the high-pitched noise this Eevee or whatever made. The bushed cracked and rustled as I fell into them. I crawled out with more than a few scratches. Turns out I had jumped into the one thorn bush that had accidentally been put in our yard. I cussed again at my misfortune.
I stumbled around front nursing my scratches, still not used to the fact of having to walk on four legs. I found the front door closed as well, so I struggled to climb into an open window on the first floor using various boxes around my yard. I peeked inside to make sure my parents weren't there, and I scrambled up the stairs to Stephanie's room.
"Stephanie?" I whispered. "Steph!" I jumped up and down so I could see the top of her bed, but no one was sleeping there. Panic took hold again. "Where is she? She's always been back before sun-up!"
I noticed her dresser drawers were open and the room wasn't exactly neat – Stephanie was an all-out perfectionist. I found that her warmest clothes were gone, and her stupid pack of job supplies wasn't in its usual spot.
I didn't have time to look around for anything else missing, for I heard a very familiar voice. "Stephanie! Time to get up now, it's almost eight."
Mom! I thought, thoroughly panicked, so much that I couldn't think to save my own life. My mom walked into the room looking for Stephanie as I whirled around in circles looking for a place to hide. In my rush my eyes missed the many spots I could've hidden myself.
"AHH!" my mom shrieked. "Dave! There's a-a th-thing in here!"
I inched towards her, but all I got in return was another loud yelp as she jumped up onto Steph's bed. "G-get away from me!"
"But mom, it's me!" But she was too distressed to even comprehend something my dad was yelling from downstairs, and she just stared wide-eyed at me.
"Fine," she huffed, and her manner switched quickly from fear to hatred. She grabbed a broom from my sister's closet, and I stood frozen in shock. "Get out! Get out!" she began shouting, and I felt the hard plastic part of the broom collide with my face. I stumbled backwards, tears welling up in my eyes. I looked back at my mom with the saddest expression I could muster, not exactly thinking clearly.
My sadness turned back to fright when she raised the broom again. I rushed past her before she could swing, tears now flying freely. I bolted down the stairs so fast I slipped on the rug at the bottom and slid across the hardwood floor into the wall. I got up and quickly ran for the door – I knew now I had to get out. I can't believe this is happening.
I stopped short of the door when I saw it was still closed. I backed up against it when my dad approached – I'd seen what he'd done to vermin that had gotten in the house before, and frankly I didn't care – until now, that is.
"Just let it out!" I heard my mom's voice from the top. My dad glared at me and opened the door. I zipped out fast but not quickly enough to escape the small kick in the butt as I ran. "And don't come back!" he shouted before slamming the door.
It. I had just been called an it. For the first time in my life, I began to feel deep emotional, and in that case physical, pain. And I thought breaking of with my boyfriend of two months was the hardest ordeal ever. I flew into a nearby corner and sat down and cried, one side of my face throbbing from the broom still.

*~General POV~*
Tat, Umbreon, and Espeon materialized the right way, but not exactly in the right place. "This isn't right," Espeon spoke, slight panic showing in her calm voice. All three pairs of eyes went wide as saucers when cars came speeding towards them from one direction, and others were waiting other places behind red lights.
"We're in an intersection!!" Tat shouted.
"Quick, get hold of my tail," ordered Espeon sharply, regaining her composed-in-any-situation attitude. Tat heard and immediately scampered over to her split tail, but Umbreon hadn't noticed Espeon even said anything and was too busy panicking. Unfortunately Espeon in her rush didn't notice Umbreon either, and she and Tat dissipated to the side of the road to safety.
Tat glanced around. "Where's Umbreon?"
Espeon jerked her head back towards the road. Sure enough, Umbreon was standing there very frightened. "This isn't good."
~*~
*~Umbreon's POV~*
I tried calling Espeon as she and Tat disappeared, but I knew it was too late. And the cars were coming straight for me. "Umbreon!" the two called out to me, and I figured it was just to let me know they were there.
I turned my attention to the cars and used several Faint Attacks to get out of the way of them. But they kept coming and my energy began to run low. In my peripheral vision I saw Espeon run forward into the cars, but a large being skidded to a stop in her way. "Stay back," a young but stern female voice ordered, and to my surprise Espeon obeyed and backed off.
That's when I noticed a car coming directly for me, and I didn't have the time or the energy to pull off another Faint Attack. Just as the car was about to hit me, I hit the ground and pulled my paws over my eyes. I heard something smash, but it wasn't anything including me. I opened my eyes to see a Ponyta, reared up on her hind legs with her hard-as-diamond hooves into the hood of the car that had almost hit. An Ember attack was used next to overheat the engine, and the occupant jumped out of the car and ran.
Relieved that I was ok, I collapsed on the ground, and I felt the Ponyta's warm mane as she picked me up and carried me out of the Guiness World Record car pileup she had just caused.
~*~
*~General POV~*
The brave Ponyta laid Umbreon gently down where Espeon and Tat were so he could recover. Tat ran to Umbreon's side, but Espeon remained to face the Ponyta.
She nodded at her. "Thank you." Espeon still kept the calm expression.
"Don't thank me, it was just instinct really. Any pokemon would've done the same. I'm Firewind."
"I'm Espeon, and that is Tat and Umbreon." Umbreon had just gotten to his feet as Espeon looked over to them. "We have to leave now, we have some important business to take care of."
"Need a ride?"
Espeon looked to the other two in question of Firewind's offer. Both nodded their heads vigorously, not exactly anxious to possibly end up on the highway again.
Firewind carried the three pokemon to the location explained. They reached the front yard and Espeon jumped off and looked around, scanning the area with her psychic eyes. "She's already been here," she stated, noting the boxes by the window. "Which means Jennifer's probably around outside. Tat, go."
Tat nodded and jumped off the Ponyta, running to little spaces and cracks that only he could fit through in walls. Umbreon also got off, and used the same Faint Attack he had used on the road to go through walls. Espeon and Firewind waited, Firewind wondering what was going on but nervous about asking.
They all heard a high-pitched screech, and Tat scampered out of a hole and looked along with the other two waiting. Umbreon faded out of a wall, his hair standing up on end, an annoyed look on his face. "Found her," he grumbled. Tat snickered.
Ponyta found a way around and into the wall with Espeon and Tat while Umbreon faded his way back in, which led to another screech from Jennifer. When the rest arrived, Espeon, Umbreon, and Tat all exchanged looks. Eevee/Jennifer screamed once more, and then backed herself into a corner.
Umbreon rolled his eyes, still not thrilled with the fact that the newly transformed girl had scared him half to death. "This will take a while." Espeon shot him a glare and he shut up, and all turned back to Jenn, Firewind still very confused and wondering why the little Eevee was so afraid of them.
