Recovery

When I came to, I was laying on a clean white bed in a sterile room. The lights were dim, thankfully easy on the eyes.

The door opened, I saw nurse joy and a chansey that ran off when it saw me awake. "You're up! How do you feel?" She asked, checking my vitals. "A little sore, but better." I said, looking around.

"Where are my friends?" I asked, turning to the nurse.

"I sent chansey to go get them. They should be here soon, don't worry."

She was right. Rapid footsteps pounded down the hall, approaching quickly. Red and blue tried to shove past eachother to get in first, rushing to my bedside.

"You're alright!" Red smiled, arms twining around me as he pulled me into his chest as if I'd disappear if he let go. Blue shoved his way in. "Quit hogging her!"

"I'll go get your Pokémon." Joy smiled, walking off.

They noticed when I began to shake in their embrace, each looking at me in concern. "Are you okay?" "What's wrong?"

Those questions were enough for the salty tears to push past my lashes, streaming down my cheeks. I brought a hand to my face as my body shook with choked-in sobs.

A cry from the doorway garnered our attention. A ninetails stood, golden fur shining under the light. "Huh..." My voice wavered, as ninetails bound over. It climbed onto the bed, worming its way into the pile.

"I don't have a ninetails..." I managed, nurse joy peeked in with a smile. "Officer jenny and several witnesses say it evolved from using a firestone in your bag to protect you, though it was eventually outnumbered."

I looked to my evolved Pokémon, before burying myself in its fur as I sobbed. Once I'd cried until I couldn't anymore, I told my friends about what had happened.

About giovanni's ties to me.

I was shocked to see neither of theie opinions on me changed. "You're nothing like him, so I dont think of you any different." Blue said, red nodded. "You're better than him in every way."

As I sat in that hospital bed, I'd realized how grateful I was for my friends...

Even though they could be stubborn airheads.
