Author's Note...

This chapter takes place in Jay's "Aura State", when they connected hands. Much like when Jay battled Houndoom. Oh, and by the way, this is a short chapter because I didn't really want to get too off-track with the whole back-story, just enough to give the information I wanted to give.

Frenchii...

Kat walked along the bottom of the Canyon, followed by her companion, Eden, who was a Charmander. Kat was an Eevee at this time.

"This place is empty," said Kat, stopping. "I can't believe Team Alpha sent us here, not a bandit in sight."

"We should go back," said Eden.

"No!" snapped Kat. "If we don't pass this mission, Team Alpha won't tell us what they know. About how we turned into Pokémon."

"Yes," said Eden, frowning. "You're probably right."

They continued walking.

Another flare of aura energy flashed. I winced, it hurt my eyes.

Now, Kat and Eden were facing against three Pichu. Eden was on the ground, panting. The flame on her tail was a mere spark.

"Volt Tackle!" The middle Pichu surrounded himself with intense electricity, then rammed into Eden full-force.

Eden flew back, slamming hard on her back. She was then surrounded by a bright light, then disappeared. Kat growled.

"Quick Attack!" she called.

She rammed into Pichu, knocking him back. As she watched him slam into the others, she fell to the ground, paralysed.

The aura flickered, as I was transported to another scene.

Kat faced off, alone, with Pichu, the others had evolved into Pikachu, but they were now on the ground. Kat had evolved into an Espeon.

"Psybeam!"

"Thunderbolt!"

They let loose their respective attacks. The attacks met in the middle. Kat pushed as hard as possible, but the Thunderbolt was quite strong. They struggled, pushing against each other's attack, then...

BOOM!

The attacks reacted to each other, sending Kat and Pichu flying.

With the explosion, I was knocked from the Aura State.
