Change

Escape

It was probably about nine hours before the light blinded my eyes for a little, I woke up I knew that for sure, I had absolutely no idea what was going on, but my vision felt cleaner and my hearing all of a sudden was better then it used to be, I thought maybe the machine malfunctioned and I stayes human, maybe they'd just let me go home. However, when I stood up... I felt short. Very short. So short you couldn't even make use of a stool. When I tried to stand on my feet, I immediately fell over onto the floor infront of the plushie, my face hit the ground and it hurt, I tried again, I still lost my balance and fell on my face, when I did I squeaked in a high pitched tone, did I become a baby again?

Did I forget how to stand?. I thought.

When I tried to stand up again, I saw my arms were furry and brown, I began shaking as I realised I wasn't human anymore, I turned my arms over to check out my hands, *clears throat*, paws. They were clean and a nice shade of pink, and I had a white mane, a very clean one too, my body also felt a little itchy, yet warm. When I looked in the mirror... I felt my heart pick up... I was an Eevee, I didn't if I should be afraid, or if I should be overjoyed now that I was my favourite Pokémon ever.

"Wh-Wh-What?" I quivered, then I realised it came out in Eevee language, so I covered my mouth out of pure surprise.

I suddenly felt scared, I was an Eevee but what was I going to do? I had no TMs, at least any that I knew of and I was, well, a Pokémon for crying out loud, even if I escaped I would probably be caught by a person. I couldn't imagine being stuck with someone, possibly a stranger I didn't know forever. But it was still worth trying to get Mom, Edith and Gemma to know it was me behind those brown eyes. I noticed I was in a room, I was supposed to be in a cell. But it was not secure, I wondered if it was just a joke and there were Team Rocket goons guarding me with menacing eyes... But somehow I had the feeling there wasn't anyone there.

I took a peak out, and saw the goon watching me had fallen asleep... On the cell control panel, oddly convenient huh? I must have almost laughed because I was very giggly. I did not hesitate to begin sprinting across the hall desperate to find an exit. While I ran I watched other Pokémon - some who were probably children like me - lie in their cells crying... Some were happy... Some where even angry, then I remembered something... The plushie! I made a dash back to the cell and quickly grabbed it.

I must have made a little too much noise because I woke the goon up...

"Hey! Come back here you little brat!"

I yelped and began to sprint away from him, he was far behind as I left the cell block and jumped onto the control panel. I locked him in and then I ran off, while I was in the hall I ran into those three idiots who kidnapped me, I went from panicked to furious suddenly, I felt my eye twitch as I set the plush down on the ground, the anger consume me like fire.

"Uh Jess? Why is that Eevee looking at us like that?"

"Well I don't know James! I'm not the one that speaks Pokémon"

Their Meowth though knew what I was...

"Um why do I got the feeling that's the one we rounded up in Saffron City?" He said shaking. Then the other two began shaking as I felt myself run at them, almost blinding white light around me - I was using Quick Attack! - The three buffoons crashed through a glass window leading into an office. I was just so upset, so lost, I began creeping up to them.

"Is there a cure!" I shouted, again in Eevee language.

The Meowth translated for me, "Uh Uh Sorry pal but we don't have one!"

I think I had become more pissed off now, like the darker side of me was coming out.

"Then be gone"

"What did he say?!" Jessie asked nervously.

"Somethin not good!" Meowth replied.

A large dark purple orb gathered in front of me - I could use Shadow Ball! - The three began screaming in fear as I released the ball heading they're way, there was an explosion as I watched them fly high in the air...

"We're blasting off again!" The three shouted.

"And it's not even the twerps!" I heard James shout.

I heard the other Team Rocket members incoming so I got my plushie and jumped out the hole I had created, but what I did not realise was that it was the ocean, I felt myself falling and falling into the ocean as I landed with a splash, I pulled up to the surface for breath, I was able to get air just before a wave crashed into me pulling me back into the sea. It had also knocked me out cold as I felt something pulling me.

When I woke up an hour later, I found myself on a beach, a Vaporeon looking at the ocean behind me. She was shiny (Not a shiny) and her scales glowed in the sunset as I picked myself up, still trying to get used to the idea I was no longer able to walk on two feet and had to walk on four feet. She turned around, revealing her navy blue eyes. She had cleaned my plush and she had definitely saved me.

"Are you okay?" She asked.

"Yeah"

"Great! Can I get you anything to eat?"

She understood me! I could not believe it, I was actually talking to a Pokémon!

"Uh Uh yeah!"

"Okay - I'll be back, stay here"

I saw her go into the water as I pondered what would happen to me, would I be caught in a Pokéball? Would Team Rocket catch me? Or would I be somehow living with a Vaporeon who saved me from drowning. I just hoped it was the last option - I doubt mom and Gemma and Edith would remember me anyway.
