Kalos Adventure

Chapter 4: On the Run

It took me three hours to finally lose Alain and his Charizard, but I didn't get through the encounter without a few injuries myself. The sun had finally set and I was looking up at the moon, it was beautiful like always, but I was an outcast now. I had to stay away from towns and cities for the time being as I figured out what was going on.

"I wonder how Umbreon and the others are doing?" I wondered out loud. I sighed as I got up from my place on the rocky terrain, then started jumping from rock to rock. It really had taken a lot out of me as I attempted to find somewhere to sleep for the night.

A cave appeared after a few more minutes of jumping from rock to rock. I explored it to make sure no one or anything was there. Then I curled up and closed my eyes gently. I had just barely been able to fall asleep as my nerves and body were all on edge.

The next morning I walked out of the cave carefully looking around for any signs of Charizard and Alain, but thankfully I saw neither. I took off away from the cave in search for something to eat now. My stomach continued to growl as I searched through the forest on the other side of the rocky terrain.

I finally came across a beautiful tree full of apples and berries. I cut down a few apples with a Razor Wind, before gulping them down quickly. With renewed strength I pressed onward towards the sea.

"Look an Absol!" I heard someone yelled. I stopped and turned sharply to see two Pokemon trainer standing there.

"Let's catch it!" I backed away a step as they threw out a Pikachu and Froakie. I used a Razor Wind to get them to look away which worked and I took off away from there.

I stopped at the water and took a huge sip waiting for someone to yell after me, but nothing came. I spent five minutes there before taking off once again towards somewhere that wasn't there. I knew something was bound to happen sooner or later, I just didn't know when.

"Lysandre, where do you expect me to find her?" I heard Alain's voice from nearby. I hid underneath the dock, that just so happened to be right next to me. I saw through the cracks that Lysandre was standing there with Alain.

"I don't care what you have to do to find her, but if we don't have her then there will be no way to power the machine with the use of the legends seeing as she can understand them. She can convince them to think otherwise, with a little push for her to listen to us. First find the Umbreon, with that she'll listen to us without any issues." I felt like my body was about to lunge itself through the dock to attack this horrible man.

"Yes sir." I laid down flat on the ground so Alain wouldn't see me as he walked off the dock. I concentrated on using Telepathy.

Umbreon you need to find a place to hide with Ash and the others. Alain is going to come for you to make me help him and Lysandre to destroy the world no doubt. Please take care of yourself.

Kat, where are you?

It doesn't matter. You need to hide and you need to never know where I am. One day I'll come back, but just know I am doing all of this to protect you.

Kat...

Forgive me.

With that I cut the connection and waited for Lysandre leave the dock as well, which took him about ten more minutes as he argued on the phone with someone. Once I was sure both him and Alain were gone I headed far away from the sea, not back the way I came, but further into the dense forest on the other side of the beach. It was getting darker as I trotted further into the forest. I ran into no one else, not a single human in sight.

Then I sensed something coming closer to me, something that was getting closer very quickly. I stopped and felt my fangs begin to bare as I waited for whatever was coming. I was shocked when a deer like creature appeared from inside the trees.

"Who are you?" I asked confused.

"My name is Xerneas, what do you need in this forest, young Absol?" I frowned and sat down feeling stupid for baring my fangs to this kindhearted Pokemon.

"I haven't come here to cause you any harm, I promise that. I have been chased here and I have no where else to go. I had to leave my partner and all my friends for this purpose of keeping them safe." I explained and I felt the exhaustion in my body as I collapsed to the ground.

"My dear child, you were chased all the way here? Please come and relax in my home, I believe you should have some relaxation after everything you've been through." I forced myself to my feet and followed this majestic creature to her home, where I then proceed to collapse again.

I explained the whole story to her and she seemed shocked to know the truth about my true form.

"I see, so there is someone out there who wishes to use our powers for evil purposes." I looked at her confused.

"Our powers?"

"Yes, you see I am one of the legends that reigns in this region. Xerneas is my name but I give life to all people and Pokemon in the Kalos region as well as the entire world. My counter part is Yvetal, which is the legend of death. Combined our powers are indestructible, so thank you for explaining everything to me. I wish to help you reunite with your friends, but from what you tell me you don't want to."

"No, I will only put them in danger if I go back." She nodded.

"Is there anything I can do for you right now?"

"I don't think so, just be safe." I said as I rose to my feet for the first time in hours, it was dark outside by now.

"Take care of yourself, my young child." I rushed out of the forest, it was perfectly quiet. I took off without another thought as I made my way out of the area of Xerneas' forest.

Four weeks have past as I continue to fled from Alain, Lysandre and now a new organization that calls itself Team Flare.

I had found my way back into civilization, which was a smaller town called Dendemille Town. It was covered in snow, but it was a town, where I could finally rest after days of no sleep.

I picked up on the scent of food and I knew I was starving, but my stomach growl confirmed it. I followed the scent and came across the Pokemon Center. I walked through the doors and saw Ash, Serena, Clemont, Bonnie and Umbreon. I shivered as Umbreon turned sharply.

"Aw that poor Absol." Nurse Joy started coming towards me.

"Kat?"
