~ Annalece ~

Anger seeps through my veins.
It was then and there- when I saw Shadows body Just lying there- something awakened, deep within my core.

I shifted immidiately, using psychic my fur illuminates a hue of crimson Purple energy. I tore through the overwhelming pressure of Psychic terrain using honeclaws and psychic at the exact same moment.

Promise follows close by my side, ready to battle if necessary, which i was truly thankful for. It turned out I really needed her help right now.

Despite being in the form of a pokemon, I was still able To get promise to pull moves in hopes of saving rockruff.

"Promise! Use flare-blitz to distract her, I'll grab shadow okay?" Promise nods back confidently before Attacking.

I scoop shadow into my arms, noticing a different and more overbaring degree of heat than usual. I glance over to promise and notice she's using a totally different move, it was new.

this was overheat.
It was critical on tapu lele, and even Drew her to Let down her psychic terrain. Soon she's engulfed in a shimmering golden flame. Within its center held the dancing silhouette my little promise's form evolving.

I couldn't help but smile with pride but, glancing down at shadow curled into my arms; he seemed to be in slight awe. Though I sensed grave pain emitting from its heart.

there stood before me, my newly evolved torricat; promise. A glistening white coat, although instead of red stripes it seemed more like they were blue.

I hug shadow to my chest and grab promise before bolting out of there. I felt allice and lori dive into my mane as we Speedily Rushed out of there.

Using hone-claws my nails sink into the treebark, as i Crawl up the trees, and tore through branch after branch. Traveling closer to the sky seemed like a smarter idea, I could at least tell where we're going by the placement of the stars.

Thankfully we were soon far enough to avoid impact of tapu lele's heavy last resort. But the Sun had just about Used it's last drop of energy- battling when the Sun just barely meets the stars definetely has its downsides.

Eventually we stopped, it being to late to travel- the darkness is easiest for me to travel but my pokemon aren't exactly nocturnal.

I lay shadow down on a grassbed, created by Lori's solar beam. I'm still curious as to what her story might be, but it's not about her right now.

I shifted back, before practically diving into my back pack; searching for that spare superpotion my Mother always packs just in case i lose my first aid kit.

It felt like all hope was lost until Alice just grabbed the back, and dumped everything on the ground- Which was slightly adgitating at first- but when I found what I was looking for it felt worth it in the end.

Promise nuzzles a small drink of water using a large leaf, as a bowl. I gently spray it, on any gaps or open gashes in its body. I massage wounded leg, to help take some of the pain away.

Eventually I asked promise to pick some more leaves, and I used them as bowls for the pokemon food I had tucked away in my bag somewhere.

When everyone was full and ready to retire for the night I had Promise used flare blitz and make a fire.

The pokemon all sat around it munching on their food, somewhat disappointed at how the day went. "I'm sorry we never got to find that everstone you wanted allice...I know not evolving meant alot to you." Allice smiles reassuringly but still melts into A saddened state. We both earned an awkward glance from promise.

"Uhh, I hate to interject On your very much needed sorrowful moping, But you know allice doesn't need an everstone to remain pikachu right?"

both exchange dumbfound expressions. "Pikachu don't evolve through leveling like your average pokemon do..they actually needs a specific type of stone to evolve. I think it's a thunderstone."

I was immidiately consumed with adgitation. "YOU DIDN'T THINK TO TELL ME THAT SOONER?!"
She smiles sheepishly, "sorry, I'm quite the chronic sleeper."
Allice only squeaks with excitement, bolting around in circles; cheeks sparkling in delight.

Later on in the night, shadow had woken up. He gazed up at me with curious yet loving
Gentle black pools of Darkness.

He looked like he wanted to say something. growing teary eyed he turnt and started wondering over tords the darkened area under the trees. I thought for a moment,
what would make him smile?
Puppies, aren't exactly supposed to be moping around in sorrow.
I couldn't help thinking, I needed to make him smile somehow.

I stood up and slowly made my way towards him.

I smiled warmly, sitting next to him. "Fate had reason to take your friend, rather than me."
He muttered, glancing at me. I stroke his fur, "Oh shadow. I know evolving..It means so much to you. But maybe, don't depend on the strength of a Story to boost your self esteem. Because...not every story has a happy ending.
Whose to say that you need to follow the rules of A prophecy, when you can write your own future?" Shadow gazes at the stars, deeply pondering my words. I felt it In my heart.

"I thought my fate was to prove my strength to no one but myself, but...I've realised I don't have the power to strengthen myself...alone." shadow sighs, laying in my lap.

"I guess the truth is, I'm never going to evolve without a partner." At that moment, I felt my heart grow warm. I was so happy...another pokemon to add to my team. I was suprisingly glad To have more, it felt like one big family i was creating.

"We'll do this, as a team." I pump my fist, silently though by the time I look down, shadow is already passed out with...a smile.
I close my eyes, and drift into the stars. Being welcomed by sleep after a long, terrifying, and exhilarating day.
