Enid woke up laying on the grass with the moonlight gleaming on to her pale face as well as the tall grass tickling her face. The girl was confused, where was she? And most importantly, how did she got here? Those were the main questions running around in her head.

She rose up from the ground, noticing she was wearing a black, sleeveless dress and was barefoot. 'Strange,' she thought to herself. 'I don't remember changing.'

But she shrugged it off and decided not to think much of it.

Suddenly, she heard sobs. Enid turned around and saw what looked like her back when she was a kid— the girl had white hair tied into two pigtails by two large black bows, she wore a frilly, long black dress and had a white pendant as well. The little girl had silver eyes similar to Enid's and had a big frown on her face and tears were streaming down from her eyes as well, Enid thought she was running towards her and panicked.

"W—wait! Kid! Don't—!"

But before she can finish her warning, the little girl passed by her as if Enid wasn't even there. This got Enid shocked and even more confused, she blinked multiple times and looked at her hands. 'Am I ... dead?' She asked herself, her mouth open in shock, but she shake her head. 'Impossible, I can't be dead.'

Enid faced to look at the little girl again and noticed she wasn't running anymore, instead, she was staring straight to the forest in front of them. And something about this forest made Enid feel slightly uncomfortable, it looked nothing similar to Petalburg Woods but instead, it looked similar to a forest that came from a horror movie or game.

But other than making her feel slightly uncomfortable, she felt so drawn to it as if it was casting a spell on her.

And she was sure the little girl knew about this as well.

"He's there." The little girl spoke. Enid got even more confused and tilted her head, but what shocked her was when the little girl turned around and faced her— both their silver eyes locked into each other.

"I— what?" Enid tilted her head in confusion, "You can see me?"

The little girl shakes her head, "That is not important, please, if you happen to see this forest again ...." she walked closer to Enid and sighed. "I'm begging you to enter the forest, he's waiting there."

"'He'? Who's 'he'?"

Suddenly, a lightning crackled in the distance and Enid felt someone shaking her. The girl woke up, still in her bed and was no longer in the grassy plane, but instead she was now back in her bedroom. Enid noticed she was sweating and wiped them away, she turned around seeing Blue shaking her and he looked so worried too.

"Blue? What's wrong?" She got up, rubbing her eyes and yawning. "What time is it?"

The blue eyed Lucario quickly grabbed Enid's arm and got her out her bed. Blue seemed to be leading her outside her bedroom but Enid quickly pulled her arm back. "Blue, tell me what's going on right now." She said in a demanding tone, the Lucario turned around with a panic look in his face and pointed at the door as if he was telling her to go outside the door. His trainer blinked a few times, but before going out the door she noticed that her night light wasn't on anymore and both her Hoothoot and Lanturn were awake.

The only reason why the room still had light was because of Lanturn that was in a big aquarium.

And they all looked pretty scared too.

'Blackout, like Donovan said.' Enid told to herself and grabbed a flashlight from her drawer, she turned it on and looked at Blue. "Come on, you're coming with me." She said in a soft tone, Blue hesitated at first but decided to go anyway. Enid slowly swung the door open leaving some creaking noises and went downstairs, 'Everything seems to be normal,' she thought. 'then why did they looked so spooked out?'

Suddenly, Enid heard a painful moan. Blue got shaken up by this and had behind his trainer, the girl turned around and looked at Blue. "Is that why you and the others got so scared?" She asked and the Lucario nodded. Enid rubbed Blue's head in effort to calm him down, "It seems to be outside the house, you can stay here while I check it out okay?"

"Lucario ...." Blue nodded.

The two of them then heard knocking on the door, Enid took a deep breath and open the door seeing ... a Pikachu?

The Pikachu seemed relief to see her and gave her a big smile, "Pika! Pika pi!" the Pikachu cried and grabbed the end of her nightgown and lead her outside the house. "Ah! Wait! I—it's raining!—"

But her moth immediately let out a gasp, her eyes widened and her free hand was covering her mouth."R—red? What happened?!"

Red was all muddy and looked extremely drained and in pain. He was clutching a wound located at his left arm and he was laying down on the ground with his head resting on the wooden stairs. His eyes weakly drifted to Enid's and smiled weakly at her, "E—Enid ... nice to see you," he said in a low voice. "L—long story s—short, I got poisoned ..."

"Poisoned?!" She said in a shocked voice. "Red, can you stand up? You and your Pikachu can come inside the house and I'll treat you there."

Pikachu walked near Red and gave him an extremely worried look. "Pika pi!" Cried out Pikachu. Enid walked near him, she didn't even cared if she was going to get dirty because of how muddy Red was, her main priority right now was to get Red inside the house. Enid helped Red stand up and helped him get inside the house, she gently pushed Red on the couch and Blue walked near them.

"Lucario?"

"Blue, can you find an antidote?" Enid asked the Lucario. Blue was confused on why she wanted an antidote but once he got a good look at Red he knew why now, he nodded at his trainer and went off to find an antidote.
