Delilah woke to the feeling of someone next to her. Blinking open her eyes she found herself in a nest and rolled over to meet houndoom's sleeping face. struggling to crawl out she was greeted by a paw coming down on her. Immobile she huffed and looked back to see houndoom's eyes wide open. "Where do you think you're going my love?" Delilah smiled, "I was just getting up to stretch." Houndoom shook his head, "I don't think so. Your leg still needs rest." Delilah opened her mouth to argue but was quickly silenced by the houndoom's gaze. The houndoom yawned and pulled Delilah back in the nest strongly. "I don't believe I've told you my name. I'm Cane." Delilah smiled at Cane. "I'm Delilah." Cane nodded and got out of the nest. "Come with me." Delilah started to stand but was immediately picked up by Cane in his mouth. He carried her to a room that was filled with berries and other Pokemon. "Wow." she stated amazed at how large the group was. Cane chuckled lowly and it caught the attention of the others. Delilah ducked her head shyly and Cane put her down. "Everyone meet Delilah." The room was quiet and Delilah felt tension in the air. "Isn't she with Chase boss?" Delilah recognized the voice as Jake's. Looking up she met the mightyena's gaze and shook her head. "I'm alone." The room suddenly rumbled with the talking of all the Pokémon. One bark from Cane and they were silent. "Chase hurt Delilah and now we're going to get payback. Tonight we go on a hunt to find him and make sure he regrets what he did." The room erupted in cheers and shouts of delight as if this had been wanted for ages. Delilah met Zoey's gaze from the inside of a group of Pokémon. Cane continued to speak, "I will be taking Tj, Blake, and Jake to help me with the job. Everyone else stay away from base." He turned to Blue who was looking disappointed that he wasn't going. "Zoey and Blue will be staying here to watch over Delilah." The gang suddenly disbanded and all that was left were the three friends. Zoey walked up to Delilah and looked at her injured leg. "That must still hurt," she stated, "do you need anything?" Delilah shook her head and turned to Blue, "why aren't you going?" Blue didn't reply except for the twitch of an ear. Zoey huffed in anger, "He got put on probation for getting caught in his last mission." Delilah nodded. Zoey began to walk to get some water before Delilah stopped her. "Zoey?" the zigzagoon turned to look at her, "yes?" Delilah hesitantly began to ask, "do you know... Do you know what they're planning to do to Chase?" Zoey sighed, "they're going to kill him. It's what they always do to everyone that's against them." Delilah felt a tugging at her heart. Knowing what she had to do she stood Delilah stood despite the pain from her broken leg. "I have to go help him!" before Zoey or Blue could protest Delilah rushed out the entrance to find Chase.
