Chapter 2

Zorua's Prov

The girl had managed to find a small cave in the side of a mountain. She seemed so sure that the hunters were far enough behind them and the distance were great enough for her to stop and rest.

Placing it onto the ground, she slumped back against the rugged wall and slipped downwards until she was fully seated and let out a long sigh. Zorua looked at the girl with (H/L) (H/L) hair with curiosity and cocked its head.

Eventually her (E/C) eyes fell upon its own bright ice blue ones and she seemed a little lost for words, or at the very least, finding it hard to come up with a conversation starter after having been hunted across several regions and being sold like a potion or pokeball.

Finally, the girl managed to conjure a short sentence and she sounded unsure when she asked it "so...your a Zorua?" Zorua nodded its head once then waited for the girl to continue as it thought to itself 'Geez, this girl seems pretty dense...' . After acknowledging its name with a simple nod, the girl introduced herself as being called (Y/N) (L/N), Zorua nodded again and somehow managed to wind up in a staring contest with '(Y/N)' who seemed to be speechless at the moment.

(Y/N) Prov

It felt like the pair had been stuck in a staring contest forever now, it was partly (Y/N)'s fault since she couldn't even find the right questions to ask the strange new Pokemon which sat in front of her looking totally disinterested by this point.

With another long sigh, (Y/N) glanced over at the cave mouth and said to the Zorua "well...I may not know much, or anything about your species but..." she returned her (E/C) eyes back to the small Pokémon "...I will try hard to learn and I promise to return you back to Unova!"  The Zorua cocked its head cutely on  one side making her internally squeal 'okay, your too adorable'  she thought to herself as she resisted the urge to stroke its small quiff of fur on its head. 

(Y/N) looked over at her (F/C) backpack and dragged it over by her side, she unzipped it and dug around in the contents of the back before eventually fishing out a couple of red, shiny and rather large apples which she had picked from a wild apple tree on her travels.

Offering one of the fruits to the small Pokémon, she smiled reassuringly as the creature sniffed it cautiously as if expecting it to be poisoned. Taking a small bite out of it, the creatures eyes lit up and it soon started to wolf down the rest of the fruit. (Y/N) stared, speechless, at how ravenous the creature looked then after a hesitant glance at her own apple she murmured "there goes my appetite..." the a little louder and more positive she said "here, have mine!" then passed it over to the Zorua.

Having finished both apples at an astonishing rate, the Zorua burped and curled up on the floor a slight distance away from (Y/N) who watched as the small Pokémon slowly started to fall into a deep slumber. Feeling drowsy herself watching it fall asleep, she lay her backpack on its side and rested her head upon it allowing her (H/C) to flop over it "I think I will *yawn* be your friend Zorua" soon, both (Y/N) and Zorua were sound asleep as the Noctowl called out in the night and the Mightyena howled across the vast forest.

The next morning...

(Y/N) woke up rather early in the morning, there was a heavy feeling on her head and she began to wonder what it was. Slowly waking up from the realm of the dreams, she groggily raised her arm and with her hand she felt around the area around her head and felt something warm and furry resting there. More awake now; (Y/N) lifted her other arm and then lifted both above her head then patted the warm furry thing on the back making it yawn.

With a sigh she whispered to herself "Zorua..." then started to tickle the little Pokémon behind the ear causing its small paws to make small swishing movements which lead to her being hit on the head. Eventually, Zorua rolled off and grunted as it hit the stone floor "sorry..." (Y/N) apologized as soon as the creature fixed her with an annoyed stare.
