We raced back to the school, and I won, of course.

"Damn, you're fast." huffed Carter as we walked up the school steps.

"I know." I laughed. At the top, I was surprised to find Dash, Aqua, Flare, Surge, Dawn, Dusk, Forrest, and Wynter there too. They must've arrived earlier. More shocking was the pokemon standing beside them. All of them were Eevees, each with their own distinctive coloring.

Dashs' was some sort of dirty tan color, much lighter than the average color. The fur around its neck was a chocolate brown, along with the tips of its tails and ears. There was also chocolate brown symbol on its forehead. It was a strait line, with three diagonal lines leaning to the left coming from the top of the line. It gave us a death glare.

Aquas had an Eevee who had dark blue fur, like the deep part of an ocean. The fur around its neck and on the tips of the tail and ears were light aqua-marine. The symbol on its forehead was a single, aqua-marine colored water droplet. It was sitting politely, studying the both of us.

Flares growled at us, and looked ready to jump. It was deep red and had an orange tipped tail and ears. The symbol on its forehead was a small flame that looked to be flickering every time it moved, even though I knew it wasn't. Flare kneeled down and petted it, reassuring that we were friends.

Surges was bright electric yellow, a color similar to his eyes. The fur around its neck was a white, as was the tips of its ears and the tips of its tail. A diagonal lighting bolt sliced through the fur above its eyes. It looked at us, yawned, and curled up into a ball to sleep.

Dawns looked up at us curiously, its' eyes taking in every detail and aspect of us four. It was light purple, and it was a dark violet color around its neck, on the tips of its ears, and on the tip of its tail. The mark on its forehead was a dark violet swirl. What could it symbolize? Physic, because they are confusing, much like swirls and zigzags? Or maybe poison, because you feel a dizziness when affected by poison?

I nearly laughed at the sight of Dusks Eevee. It was completely black, with gray around its neck, on the tip of its tail, and on the tips of its ears. There was a plain gray ring on its forehead, the middle completely filled in black. What was funny about it was that it was chasing a leaf that was floating lazily through the air. When it fell, the Eevee would pounce while the wind blew it away again. It would lift its paws to examine its catch, only to find nothing there. Then spotting the leaf again, it resumed the process.

Forrests Eevee was green, similar to the leaf that Dusks' was chasing around. The tips of its tail, ears, and around its neck was a a light, nearly white, yellow. The symbol on its forehead was a leaf that was twisted, as if it was floating on the breeze. It was chasing its tail like crazy, and didn't even look up at us.

Wynters Eevee was very beautiful. It was pure white, except for the ice blue around its neck and on the tips of its tail and ears. It also had a symbol on its forehead. It was an simple, six pronged snowflake. It seemed to be day dreaming, looking at the setting sun with its eyes glazed over, as of imagining something.

"New friends?" asked Carter as he nodded his head in their direction.

"Aw, Geez, they caught us." said Flare as she scooped her Eevee into her arms. Then she noticed Prince and Cala. "And looks like you two made some new friends to."

"Yep. This is Prince and Cala." I said while pointing to the respective pokemon.

"This little dude is Miles. He's been acting sorta grumpy ever since I met him." said Dash as he tentatively gave Miles a pat on the head.

"This is Serena! Isn't she beautiful?" asked Aqua as she hopped around her super polite partner.

"This is Tyson." said Flare as she picked him up. "He's kinda hostile, but trust me, you'll get used to it."

"This guy has the coolest name. Storm. Sounds awesome, right?" said Surge as the Eevee looked up at him lazily.

"This is Eden." said Dawn.

"Raven." Dusk scowled, watching as his pokemon continued her silly game.

"This is Rosalind. Wynters is called Hermione." said Forrest, chuckling when Hermione's head snapped in our direction. She blinked a little bit, confused.

"They're all beautiful." I said as Cala walked up to them. We continued to talk for a little bit, but stopped abruptly when we heard the screeching of bus breaks. We all glanced at each other nervously. School students weren't supposed to have partners, and if we're caught, then Kincaid will surely give us enough detentions for a lifetime.

Without a second thought, we sprinted through the hallways and up to our rooms.

"How many detentions would we get if Kincaid saw us sprinting through the hallways?" asked Dash, who was waiting for us at the top of the stairs. How the hell did he get up there so fast?

"Less talking, more running!" hissed Dusk as he ran past him and around the corner. We ran into each of our rooms, each with the intent of hiding our pokemon somewhere secret.

"SHIT!" I heard Flare yell. She ran into mine and Wynters room with Tyson in her arms.. "I can't hide Tyson in my room! Tori will find him and bitch about it to Kincaid! I'll be screwed!"

"Here. Give him to me." said Wynter in a surprisingly calm voice. She took him into his arms, and put him under her bed with Hermione and Prince. Flare calmed down a bit.

"I'm gonna go warn Forest. He share a room with Jackson, who is practically the male version of Tori." said Flare as she sprinted out of the room. I let out a sigh and plopped onto the bed.

"God help us. How are we gonna keep this a secret till June?" I asked. Wynter shrugged.

"It's only a month. We'll be fine."

We heard hurried footsteps coming up the stairs, and suddenly, Ms. April and Janice nearly plowed our door down.

"We heard what happened!" said Janice like an overprotective mother.

"Yeah? The rangers told you that they treated it though, right?"

"Eleanor, you were shot. You can't just be okay with this." said Ms. April. Wynters' eyes widened, and her hands covered her mouth.

"I'm a fast healer. It'll be fine." I said as I leaned back, folding my arms behind my head. They looked at me, there eyes filled with concern. Ms. April let out an exasperated sigh.

"You're defiantly different Eleanor. Most kids would be having conniption fit, complaining no stop about the pain and agony that they were in."

'But do most kids have wings? How about healing powers? For most kids, it would take forever for a gunshot wound to heal. Mine healed in a matter of hours. So tell me, Ms. April, am I really like most kids?'

The thought ran through my mind for a minute, and I even thought about saying it. But instead, I said; "Guess I'm not like most kids."

I looked up at the three of them, eyes filled with concern and worry. Wish I could read minds. I probably don't need to know how. I'll bet that they think that I'm crazy. I just don't want them to see the wound. How would I explain the now white scar that was a gunshot wound at noon?

"Just be careful with that arm for a couple of weeks." instructed Janice. "I don't want it to get any worse."

"I will. Thanks for your concern." I said as they got up and walked out of the room.

"You got shot?" asked Wynter, her voice barely above a whisper.

"Yeah..." I said as I ran my hand through my long hair.

"Are you...in pain?" she asked.

"Was..." I said, walking towards the window, and staring out it. I suddenly couldn't look Wynter in the eye. She was my best friend at this school. My roommate. We were so close, we knew each other so well. But she doesn't know my secret. Carter knows, but he found out by accident, like how I found out about his powers and wings by accident.

I snuck a glance over my shoulder. Wynter was staring at me, eyes filled with concern. My eyes drifted back out the window.

"Eleanor..." said Wynter as she put a hand on my shoulder. "You're hiding something from me, aren't you? I can tell. Are you going to tell me? I'm the best at keeping secrets, you know that."

I could feel the small smile on her face. Why shouldn't she know? The worst thing she cold do was tell Aqua, Flare, Surge, Dusk, Forrest, Dawn, and Carter, who already knew. The possibility was about as unlikely as a Slowpoke moving quickly.

Besides, even if she did tell them, all they would do is confront me about it. They wouldn't tell anyone. The ten of us were that close knit. We had each others back. We defended each other, helped each other, and, when we become rangers, we'll start protecting each other.

"Wynter, if I tell you what I'm about to tell you, you've gotta promise two things. One; don't scream, or faint, or have a heart attack or something. That seriously won't help out the situation I'm in. Secondly, you have to swear to Arceus not to tell anyone. Got it?"

She nodded, her eyes sparkling with curiosity.

"Wynter, why do you think that I live in Cocuna Village?" I asked, sitting on my bed, smiling as Prince, Tyson, and Hermione crawled out from under Wynters bed. I didn't allow her to answer, and continued. "I live there because it's small. Because I can hide from people easier in a small town than in a big city. Truthfully, Wynter, I lived in Jubilife City in Sinnoh before we had to move."

"Was it because of your father?" she asked. I shot her a look. "Sorry, sore subject."

I continued on.

"Cocuna Village, the only place that practically goes unchecked by the world. The population is small, and everyone is like a family. Everyone knows everyone else's name, kids could be left alone because everyone trusted each other. The worst crime ever committed was silly little pranks from small children." I smiled, remembering the good times there. "I'm being hunted."

"Hunted? By who?"

"Anyone who's willing to use a gift for their own advantage. The Pinchers, scientists, mobsters, gangs, evil organizations," I counted them off on my fingers. "You name it Wynter, and I'll bet that they were there. They all wanted one thing, and one thing only, and that's Cocunas' Angel."

I stared at her face as she put the pieces together. It went from confusion, to puzzlement, and then to wide-eyed shock.

"Eleanor...you...you are...? Wait...what...?"

Without a word, I pulled off the jacket and tank top, in my cami once again. Wynter stared wide-eyed at the wings, her eyes going from them to the scar on my shoulder.

"That scar... Thats were you were shot, right?"

"Healing powers." I said simply. I closed my eyes for a moment, taking in a deep sigh asI stretched my wings. That flight today wasn't enough, especially since it was cut short by getting my wing shot. I heard a rustling noise, as if someone was taking off clothing.

"Wynter, what are you...?" I stopped. I probably had the same look that Wynter had when she saw my wings. Why? Because right now, I was looking at hers. White, tinted with ice blue. I felt tears well up in my eyes. "Oh Arceus, Wynter..."

"I have them to." she whispered, tears also welling in her eyes, with a smile so genuine, I could mistake her for an actual angel.

"The Angel Gene? Did you get the speech from Hermione?" she nodded, a single tear dripping down her face. I felt my own tears drip down mine and onto my hands. "Your powers...?"

"Ice." she murmured.

I suddenly found myself crying. I didn't know if it was from happiness or relief, or just the simple fact that there was another out there like me. For twelve long years, I had to keep my secret in Cocuna village, the insecurity setting in, realizing that I wasn't like all the other kids, even tough the village knew I was Cocunas' Angel.

But today, I met two other kids who were almost exactly like me. They had to go through it too. They had to keep their secret to. They lived differently from me, and probably didn't have super accepting small towns that I lived in. Heaven knows what Carter and Wynter have gone through.

Wynter sat down beside me. She was crying to. I was so happy right now. Happier than what mere words could describe. I'm sure that Wynter and Carter were to.

We finally found out that we weren't alone.
