A cool drip line of blood slowly entered the body of water in which it did not belong. A soft tug was felt as my head could not lift so I forced myself to open my eyes instead as the beast put me on top of its back as it walked above water. It's blue soft fur Reminded me of the soft cool ripples of the water itself but somehow had a certain welcoming warmth as it breathed slowly and calmly.

Hours went past, or at least I believe so that it had been a long while. My eyelids felt as heavy as small rocks teasingly too big to be picked up that you'd find alongside a path. A long nose poked at my chest as I could feel something radiating, no breathing above me. H-hello my beautiful beast ...I sputtered out very quietly as Suicune practically punched at my chest with both its paws separately before commanding the water up out of my chest and lungs, making me cough all the more as it guided me onto my side. The view....is remarkable I gotta say, heh suicune? Ah, not in the mood for jokes I see look I'm sorry about dying and making your water filthy...I just wanted... To meet you, it's not like I planned on dying here.

The last thing I remember seeing is suicune running across the body of water cleaning its surface and scoffing as it came back to the grass that had been stained from carrying me to the forest shore side of the lake. When I opened my eyes again I couldn't see, all I could feel was its heavy body enveloping me in heat as suicune had most of me under it, hugging me to them as if I were their own....it's like I could just make out a certain pitch in the creatures voice that day.

Suicune, are you...crying for me? Not even being able to barely talk as my bodily senses were starting to fail me I shivered slightly as I stared up at suicune who almost out of instinct looked at me every time I looked at them. What a....a ..remarkable singing voice you have. I said out of raspy quiet chilled coughs. My hand was shaking so much that my whole right side shook gently as my hand reached up to touch the beast. Suicune reluctantly met my hand with the side of its face. It's almost as if, I can see tears that aren't there, it's almost as if I can hear you calling out to me, suicune I'm not going to make it. The wound I received, I lost too much blood back there from that stray dragonite blast to the chest even if it did miss my heart I think my lungs are being filled if it weren't for you pumping the liquid back out I would have drowned in your lake.... Damn that evil team of bandits, I just wanted to protect what was yours....why couldn't they understand that ?

Suicune looked up as if trying to hold back tears letting my hand fall onto its chest as it cried softly.

I rubbed my eyes to see if it was just me hallucinating or what I saw was real. The next time I opened my eyes I was slouched against a tree surrounded by forest Pokemon but a green hue like light in front of me caught my attention as I tried desperately to focus my sight on it Celebi, the guardian of the forest put its tiny little hands on each side of my face screaming practically, presumably trying to wake me up.

It looked back to suicune who had been pacing back and forth who slowly came and stood over celebi and glared down at me then to the guardian of the forest.
I could almost faintly hear their hushed Pokemon cried like voices, most likely meaning I didn't have much longer as I leaned my head back against the tree and sighed shakily I could hear celebi ripping leaves off the trees and holding them against my chest. Be! It commanded me, I held the leaves there as it tried using its forest magic on me.... Surpassingly it did make me feel better being lifted with the guardians spirit and attempted to be healed with the purest waters of the lake Guardian but to no avail, they could not replace the most vital human resource to me, blood....

My body became colder by the minute and I could feel soft tears hit my face,
Huh funny.......

I didn't think legends could cry....
The voices grew softer but more clear...
....I could
..................hear my name
Being called ..........
It's as if it was waves on a lake, in heard of but present at that time ...
I could almost have sworn I Heard suicune telling celebi....
To.....
Bring ...............
Bring her....
Bring her back
.........

That day I heard two voices I never thought would comfort me
.......
That day I heard the sweet bitter song of the lake guardian
......
That day I was saved and trapped all the same as I am now
...........
..........I am the voice of the lake............

The only trace of my humanity was a torn sketchbook with a half drawn suicune and trainer who I presumed to be me floating to the bottom of the lake.
