Ch 7
Saved!
Immediately after everything went black, a ray of light revealed itself. In another red flash I was laying on the ground dizzy. I clutched my hand to find that the pokeball from earlier was still there with Eevee in it. I looked up to see that man from earlier stopped and staring past me. I looked where he was to see Ace and Kale sprinting towards us with Lucario and Blastoise out. Forest was trailing close behind them. Forest seemed to have been injured; he was limping with every step. Lucario has a strange blue glow around him.
“So that is how you found me,” the man inquired. “That Lucario is using the power of aura.”
“Good guess, now feel that power of aura up close! Lucario Aura spear!” Ace yelled.
Lucario focused on his hands and a blue orb formed between them. Then took a step and threw it at the man.
The man took out a pokeball and yelled, “Rampardos use protect!”
A blue barrier came around him and blocked the aura.
I wanted to help the others so bad, but I could not move. My body was in too much pain to even speak. Also I could not send out Eevee, I did not know what type of shape she was in, and Forest was too hurt to fight. They will have to do this alone.
“Who do you think you’re dealing with?”
“Honestly, we really don’t know who you are,” Kale told him.
“You don’t? Well I am Forec and you will come no further! Rampardos use Zen Headbutt!”
Rampardos’ head glowed blue and rammed Lucario hard. Lucario was knocked out from the supper effective blow.
Ace cried out, “Lucario! That was my last pokemon Kale it is up to you now.”
“I have him covered, Blastoise use Hydro Pump!”
The Hydro Pump hit him head on and sent Rampardos flying. Forec returned him before anymore damage would happen to him.
“I still have one pokemon left, go Plusle!” Forec yelled.
“Wait, you actually use a Plusle? Wow…” Ace laughed.
“Do not talk like that! Use Thunder!”
This was no ordinary Thunder that struck Blastoise. It had tremendous power. Blastoise did not even move. He just fell over KOed.
“That is why you should never talk down to Plusle,” Forec said with a sneer. “Now after I finish you off, I will take your pokemon and your little friend there for testing. I wonder if trained pokemon will last longer than the wild ones did.”
“NOOOOOOOOO!” I screamed. I could feel myself lifting into the air, but this time not in a mystic sort of way. I was moving my arms up and down. I looked at my arms and saw,
I had wings! I did not think this part would happen so soon, and I being in the Pokeball seemed to take place of a nights sleep.
I flew up higher in the air to hear, “Use Thunder again!”
As I saw the bolt fly towards me I moved quickly to the side and it missed narrowly. I turned to Plusle and flew as fast as I could at it. I hit it hard with my left wing as it tried to dodge. It flew backwards into Forec. I reared up into the air again and flapped my wings hard. I could feel a gust of wind coming off of my wings and hit Forec with Plusle hard. They both flew up over the trees and I lost sight of them both.
I slowed the flapping of my wings and landed on both feet,
“Wow, what just happened?” Ace asked.
“It looks like I became more like an Articuno again,” I responded. I looked down at my arms and saw that the feathers were melded in my skin. I relaxed my arms and the feathers slowly lowered themselves onto my skin, they wrapped themselves around my arm and it appeared as nothing has changed, only that my arms were blue.
“This is insane. How many more things could happen?” Kale asked.
That is a good question, what else could happen?
“We can’t stand here anymore we need to get all of our pokemon to the center, and fast, return Forest.”
“How are we going to get all our pokemon there quickly, all of our pokemon are fainted?” Ace asked.
“How deep in the forest are we?”
“We are about 5 miles in, that is how all our pokemon fainted, we had to keep fighting that freak and his little friend. They would pop out of nowhere and attack us then disappear. We got lucky he dropped you,” Kale told me.
“I have an idea! If the pokemon in the forest trust Kale enough not to attack him you two can give me your pokeballs. I will fly to Viridian and go to the pokecenter. I can wait for you guys there,” I said.
“They should trust me, here are my pokemon.”
“That sounds good,” Ace answered. “Here are all mine, be quick please.”
With that I unfurled my wings and started running. I could start to feel lift and my feet came off of the ground. I just barely cleared the first line of trees and I started flapping as hard as I could. You do not know how much I wanted to fly up into the clouds. I knew though that I had to get to the pokecenter as fast as I could.
Viridian City came into sight, I could see the pokecenter. Over the entire city I could see people staring and pointing at me. I started flapping even harder until I made it to the door. I had a very hard time landing. My feet hit the ground and my legs could not keep up. They came up from under me and I went into a spin cycle on the ground. I got up slowly and sprint to the doors.
When I got inside I found the center was filled with people running everywhere. Chanseys and Blissys pushing girdles with the pokemon form the gym on them. I ran to the desk and saw a Nurse running by.
“Stop, please stop, I need your help,” I yelled at her.
“I’m very sorry, but we have priorities right now,” she responded.
“Listen this is very important. I know what all these pokemon got injured by, and I have others also.”
“Oh no, not more. Here put them on this tray we will heal them soon.”
“I’m going to need more than that,” I told her as I took out the twelve pokeballs.
“Ok here is another tray, whose are these?”
“They are my friends; they are on their way here.”
I lifted up my arms to place the pokeballs on the tray and she grabbed my arm. “What is wrong with your arms!?” She asked concerned.
“Listen just please help my pokemon and I promise I will explain everything, including what that explosion was. Help the pokemon first then we can play 20 questions.”
My arms were very tired, I could barley lift them up. I walked to the first open chair I could find and sat down. After about 20 minutes Kale and Ace showed up.
“This place is a zoo!” Ace commented after he found me.
“Think I don’t know that?” I responded. “I also promised to explain what happened to the nurse when their done. I figured that would move us up to the top of the list. I guess I was wrong.”
Ace and Kale both sat down as they told me of the battles they had as they chased me. How all of their pokemon fainted and how they lost them for a while and Lucario was able to find them. The traffic was starting to slow down after a while and almost everyone that was not working left.
I heard a ding over the intercom, “Can Alex and her friends please come to the back room please.”
We all got up and walked to the room. All of our pokemon were there and outside there pokeballs outside Eevee. I could see Eevee’s outline inside a small opaque plastic box, hooked up with wires and other things. The box she was in seemed far too large for Eevee.
The head nurse walked in and said, “Hello, my name is Joy. I know we have all had a very long day, but we need some answers. What happened in that gym? Also what is wrong with her? Why are her arms blue?”
We all started explaining what happened to us over the past 3 days. It took a while but we told them everything until they were satisfied.
“Now that we have answered your questions, I have one for you. What is wrong with Eevee?” I asked concerned.
“We believe we figured out what was wrong. If you look at this chart you can see that Eevee’s metabolic processes are very irregular. All of her hormones are jumping everywhere.”
“What do those hormones do?” Kale asked.
“These are the hormones that cause pokemon to evolve. Since Eevee can evolve into so many different pokemon, she has many more hormones than other pokemon. But your Eevee is even more irregular. Watch,” as she turned to her assistant, “can you clear up the box for us please?.
“Certainly.” She hit a button and the box became clear.
We all looked intently as Eevee evolved into a Flaireon! Then she de-evolved into Eevee again. Then into Espeon! Back again. She went through this cycle until she has gone through all the Eeveelutions.
“We are trying to stabilize her now, the evolutions are getting further apart. She will be Eevee for another 30 minutes by our count. But we need you to leave her overnight so we can help her more,” Joy told me.
“Okay we will be staying at Oaks lab tonight, just call there if you need us,” Kale told them.
We then left the building with our pokemon. They both returned all their pokemon outside Charizard and Dragonite. They both took off with me following. We all flew slower than usual as we were all tired. We landed outside Oak’s, went inside, and found our beds. We were so exhausted we did not even stop to say anything to anyone. We fell in our beds and fell asleep immediately.
That night was the best night sleep since we arrived. Maybe my changes were over?
