Liza and Aaron hurried back to their house. The fennikin was whimpering all of the way to the house. When the two burst through the door. Max yelped (no surprise) and set a pillow on fire.

"Damn it, Max," Eric swatted Max away. The litleo ran for the backyard.

"She's hurt, bad," Liza said as she laid down the fennikin. Taylor jumped up and sniffed her curiously. Laila sprinted down from upstairs and walked to the table.

"What happened?" She asked.

"I was right! There was something wrong with that family down the road! They abuse pokemon!" Liza announced, "The boy...I think his name was Jason...kept beating this poor thing up when it couldn't do a move!"

"..." Eric was stunned.

Liza hurried to her bag and came out with a super potion. She sprayed it onto the Fennikin. It yelped a little bit, but otherwise, it stayed silent.

"There," Liza said, "Your good as new."

The fennikin jumped into Liza's arms.

"FEN!" It yowled, "KIN!"

"It seems that it wants to join your team!" Eric said.

"Well...then I guess I'll take you in! I'll name you...Alyssa!" Liza exclaimed. Alyssa jumped out of Liza's hands. Her and Taylor ran around, playing. Max was still outside.

"Where's Max?" Laila wondered.

"Still outside," Aaron answered.

"I'll go check on him!" Eric ran outside.

Liza yawned, "Well, this has been a busy day," She walked tiredly up the stairs/

The next morning, Liza smelled smoke.

"FIRE!" Aaron shouted.

Liza threw on some sweatpants and a T-shirt and hurried downstairs. The stove was burning.

"This was on me!" Eric yelled as he hopelessly swatted the flames with a washcloth.

Taylor jumped up, turned himself into a buizel and used water gun on the fire. It took a few minutes, but it stopped.

"Taylor...that was brilliant!" Aaron exclaimed. Taylor turned himself back into a zoura.

"Zor!" He yelped.

"Enough commotion for me," Liza said, "I'm going for a walk."

She strode out of the house and wasled tp the lake. Normally, it would have been clear, but some fainted pokemon had gashes in their bodies.

"What could have caused that?" She shuddered. Aaron tumbled out of the bushes and screamed at the sight.

"B-b-b-BLOOD!" He yelled as he grabbed onto Liza. Small bubbles began to appear in the lake.

"T-that must be the thing that left these marks!" Liza said.

THe bubbling stopped and a magicarp came out.

"A MAGICARP?" Liza and Aaron both shouted at the same time.

"CARP! CARP!" It said. When it opened it's mouth, it had razor sharp fangs that had some red on it.

"AAAAAAAAAAAAHHHHHHHHHH!" Aaron and Liza ran away so fast, they could have been just a blur.

"CARP!" The magicarp swam back under the lake.
