Billycorn2002 Thanks for helping me finish the chapter with the "horrible advice" you call.

Katherine's P.O.V.

"First, Norsoe shows up, second, we almost died, and third, you have healing powers now?! How come we didn't know about that?" Lonnie asks, making me sweat profusely.

"Look, I'm sorry, I really am," I told her, giving a look at Philip which wrote 'help' all over my face. "I just thought I'd give you guys a breath from what's happening right now. I... I didn't want to freak you out even more than you already are right now."

Luckily, the Jolteon understood immediately and came to my rescue. "She's right. I knew about it too. We're... sorry for not telling you."

"Oh well, apology accepted." Blake chuckles. "That was ages ago, anyway. Besides, we already got into an argument earlier. I don't want it to happen again."

I agreed; it had been painful to bear. I couldn't even heal myself, what better could it emotionally do to me?

"I guess you're right," Lonnie nods to him. The Leafeon walks up to me, holding me in a warm embrace. "Just don't be like that again, okay? I... we can't afford to lose you. To me, you're just like a sister that I never had."

She whispered it gently to my ear like a soothing breeze of wind, making me smile softly as I hugged her back.

"I will, Lonnie." I told her, breaking away. "Thank you guys, for not leaving me behind."

"It's the least we could do. Without you, Team Alpha wouldn't have existed, and I wouldn't have been with all these amazing friends." Blake said, blushing slightly as Lonnie nuzzles into his side.

"And I wouldn't have made it this far if you hadn't stood up to my father. My life would've been entirely the same until now."

Blushing at their words, I cleared my throat and decided to just bring up another topic.

"So uh... about Kila."

I turned my head, watching the small mythical sleep soundly under a warm blanket of leaves as I walked over to her.

"She definitely had it worse than all of us." Philip said, and his face twisted into a grimace at the thought. "I guess even your powers can't wake her up from her needed rest, huh?"

"Yeah," I replied, shifting my gaze at him. "By the way, thanks, for what you did earlier. I guess Lonnie can be a bit scary sometimes."

"Trust me, I've seen way worse." He chuckles nervously, looking into my eyes. I stared back, shifting my paws on the leaf-ladden ground beneath us.

"Can I ask you something?"

"Hmm?"

"About what N-Norsoe said to you. What was it exactly about?"

 What was it exactly about?"
