Pokemon Revival (Discontinued)

Chapter 54 Scars

I woke up with a stretch and a yawn, letting all of my limbs, including my tail, get back their ability to move properly. I took a look up at the ceiling with my crimson eyes and just stayed there for a moment until I felt like moving. After staring at the ceiling for about two minutes I looked over to the right.

Laying down in Lucario's bed was the shiny zoroark I helped yesterday. She seemed to have squirmed around a lot in her sleep, because the blanket and pillows were thrown around. I decided that I would start on breakfast for everyone, maybe fruit this time.

After walking out of the room and letting her rest I had realized something. I actually slept well for the first time in forever. I never thought I'd be able to get another good night's rest, but yet I did. It felt good, and I mean really good to finally not have a nightmare.

I took a look around the house with my aura, again forgetting that I was able to do that.... Why do I forget something that happens every time I close my eyes? I saw that everyone else was still in bed.

I guess it couldn't hurt to start early, then I wont have to work when they get up. I went to the kitchen, pulled out a few bowls from the cupboards, and got to work. I pulled out some fruit, apples, pineapple, blue berries, and oranges.

I turned on the sink, gave the fruit a rinse, and then gave my claws and paws a clean with dish soap. After that I started using my claws to cut the fruit, use 'em  if you have 'em right? After cutting the apples into slices, cutting the pineapple into rings, making orange slices, and separating each bowl with some blueberries I was finally done. Thankfully it didn't take me long to finish and when I was I put two of the bowls in the fridge for when Jon and Ray wake up. I took mine and Zuria's and headed back up stairs with them.

After quietly opening the door to our room and placing the bowls on one of the night stands I walked over to where she was laying. I slowly and quietly put my paw on her shoulder.

-Hey, time to get up,- I said with a calm voice.

What I got replied with was not a happy greeting from her.... Far from it actually.

(Zuria POV)

I was asleep, not having a dream for once. I was grateful not to have one, because they were never good dreams. It was peaceful for once, I was peaceful for once. Never thought I would have another sleep like this.... usually things are not this peaceful, so why were they now? I really didn't understand.

Suddenly a creature placed it's paw on my shoulder! It had startled me awake from my slumber. How did it get in my den!!? I would have heard it so how!? I had no time to think, it snuck in and was obviously skilled!!

Without even thinking I swung around from where I lay and slashed at the creature! It couldn't have avoided it, I knew aerial ace, and I clawed at it with a blinding speed it couldn't dodge. As I looked up and prepared for another swing at the creature I realized something horrible.

With my claw raised I looked at who was in front of me with my yellow eyes, it was the blue dog creature that had helped me, Jae. He was holding his left arm in what appeared to be pain. I then realized that I was no longer in my den, I was in his home. I looked over at the stand and saw there were two bowls of fruit, did he make that.... For me?
