We Are The Pokemon, & We Don't Need You Anymore

Chapter 11

We all stared at each other for a moment,then Zoura said, "Well. This is akward."I glared at him and turned back to the human who was gaping at me."You understand me?" I asked again. He nodded numbly. I promptly passed out.Flames danced around me. I looked up and saw myself. My eyes were wide with fear, my fur stained with soot."Help."I asked,and my copy.It shook it's head and backed away,running into the fire."EEVEE!"I screamed,and a burning beam fell, it burned my throat and I screamed as my blood boiled. I was in my trainer's place.I had abandoned him."Eevee....Eevee..." My name echoed around me.I opened my eyes seeing two dark faces,concerned."Is she alright?" One asked. "It happened again. "Muttered the other one.Their faces and voices merged together."You'll be fine."I plummeted back into darkness.

My throat hurt.I knew that much.I didn't know how long I had slept,or how I had fainted,or where I was,but I knew my throat hurt.For the second time that week,I opened my eyes after going comatose.The sun had rose,and my friends were curled in a circle protectively around me.I blinked sleepily.Charlie was sprawled in the dirt beside the group with Night sleeping on his chest.I yawned loudly and stopped.

Charlie. Me. Speaking.

I remembered why I passed out all of a sudden:I could speak to humans.I could see Champ,sitting beside the river. I walked over to him,my throat burning. "Hello." I managed. He jumped up with a yelp and placed a paw over his heart. "You scared me."His yelp awoke the other Pokemon."What happened?"I asked."You passed out after you um....talked."Zoura said awkwardly.I groaned and stumbled to the river.I took a long drink of water,but it didn't end the stinging sensation in my throat.I looked up,my fur wet and gestured to the human."What's with him?"I asked blearily.I was too confused and tired to think straight."He passed out too." Champ stated embarassedly.Humans are strange creatures."Are you okay Eevee?"Charmander asked tenderly."Not really.My throat feels like a Fire Type danced all over it."I said and stuck my lips back in the river.I blearily glanced at my reflection,then did a double take.M eyes.I was positive they had been brown before,like chocolate.Now they were golden mesmerizing pools.

I yelped and jumped back,shaking."What's happening to me?"I asked myself.
