Sorry, She's Taken

Chapter 5

"Reeeeeeedd. We were at this for hooouuurs." Yellow pulled on the black-haired boy's jacket. Her short breaths stained the air. ChuChu and Pika were covered in Red's jacket. With Green's constant groans of boredom and the fact that it was now 11:57 pm, things couldn't get much worse... but it did. They saw the start of a blizzard.

"Reeeeeeeeedd. I'm freeeeeeeeezzzing." She continued to tug on his jacket. Red turned around and shoved her away.

"I'm lost in this stupid storm," he said. Yellow tossed her head back and groaned with Green. She held her jacket close to her, in attemts to get some warmth. Charizard's tail was far behind them, so she couldn't use that.

After a few minutes, Red landed in what seemed like the middle of nowhere-- the blizzard made it impossible to see anything a meter away.

"We're staying here," he announced, and once again, the other two groaned loudly. Charizard used Flare Blitz to melt a good amount of snow off the grass. He settled in the wetness afterwards.

Green was the first to take cover under the orange wings. Yellow and Red joined him right after. The flame Pokemon curled his tail to the inside, providing a small fire for them.

"Thanks, Charizard," Red said as his Pikachu layed down against him. Charizard smiled, then went to sleep.

After a long silenc, Green was the one who spoke up first.

"Do... do you think we'll be able to get to Leaf before... anything bad happens to her?" Yellow thought for a second. She looked at his face: a sad, shattered expression.

"Probably not," she answered flatly. "But if we do, she's extra lucky."

"Seems like Leaf is having a tough time, the way she souted to us from that Hydreigon." Red took interest in his black undershirt. Green knitted his eyebrows at him.

"Ya don't say?"

"At least we know that she's suffering," Yellow shrugged, "if we didn't, we would have not known if she wanted to join their side or not."

"By the way, why was she kidnapped in the first place? I mean, she's never been here, and they don't even know any Pokemon from Kanto."

"No one knows, Green..." she sighed. Suddenly, Yellow felt sleepy. As her eyes drooped closed, she saw Green bury his face in his knees, which were held to his chest by his arms.

><><><

"Yellow... wake up." Red's voice shook her awake. Without thinking, she smiled. Red did a 'what-the-heck' look and slapped her. Now she was normal.

"OW! What the heck, Red? What the heck?!" She noticed that her hat fell off, so she quickly put it back on. "WHAT THE HECK??"

"You were sleeping on me," he replied blankly, then walked out of Charizard's little room. Good thing too, because a deep blush overcame her face.

"Ooops," she whispered. Yellow decided to wave it off, and followed Red outside.

Outside, was a town. They landed in Iccirus City. People were staring, whispering, and pointing at the orange Pokemon and the strange trainers.

"Are you from around here?" A little girl asked Green. She had brown hair, deep, dark brown eyes, and a smile that made him blink. She wore a blue and black coat, and she had a Minccino in her arms.

"N-No..." Green turned away. He sworn that she looked like Leaf for a second...

"Where are you from?"

"Kanto, a land very far away," Yellow answered for the spikey-haired boy. "We are looking for somebody here. Have you seen a girl-"

"Who looks like an older ver-"

Red cut Green off, "who has brown hair, brown eyes, a smile that lights the darkness, a blue and black shirt, red skirt, and different Pokemon than here?" Green slapped his forehead. Red grinned.

"Seems like an older version of her..." a man pointed to the little girl.

"Yeah," Yellow said. She allowed the people to bring her and Red to the Pokemon Center, to warm up and whatnot. Green and the girl were left stranded alone.

"My name is Yomi. Your name is Green." Green was shocked.

"How did you know?" Yomi giggled and held his PokeDex up.

"It has your name written on the side. The writing is pretty." Green frowned sadly.

"That is the girl's handwriting..." Yomi squinted.

"Your sad. You are her friend, aren't you?" He nodded. She smiled and gave him back his PokeDex. "I look like her, huh? ... Lets go inside!" She grabbed his free hand and dragged him into the Center.

><><><

"So what happened to this Leaf girl?"

"She was abducted... by some people. We found this-" Yellow took the dirty badge Green found away from him and held it up. "-in bushes. Do you know what it stands for?" One person gasped.

"Team Plasma!" Everyone backed away, or ar least leaned away some. Yellow blinked.

"Team Plasma? Who's that?"

"An evil group," one boy said. "Is Leaf a strong person?" Green and Red nodded.

"Then she's history," he responded simply. Red saw Green crunch up slightly.
