Chapter 20: Camp Disaster

(Episode 39 of Pokemon XY. Warning: injury)

It was the third day of camp and Cayla could honestly say she was having fun! Her group members were interesting in the least. There was Mikky, a calm and shy boy who was shorter than Cayla with shoulder length brown hair, and tanned skin. And then their was Mikky's sister Mandy, she was very nice, but also energetic and excitable, and like her brother she was tan, but her hair was bleached and was tied in flowing pig tails. Mikky's Pokemon were Quilava, Litleo, Flareon and Rapidash, and Mandy's Meganium, Merill, and Vivillon.

They hadn't won very many points at the fishing competition, with Cayla having CC, a Fire Type, and Mikky having nothing but Fire Types, they were at a disadvantage. But it still fun none the less! Dawn especially liked having Mikky's Flareon around, Cayla noticed, as the silver Eevee would often follow it around, and listen to it's instruction. Ro was also threw the moon, glued to CC's side like an actual child following their older sibling.

Cayla sat with everyone at breakfast, slowly eating as she listened to the other's chat. Mikky was still working on rising his sister though, so Cayla sat with Team Froakie, and Team Squirtle as they discussed the food. Her hair was braided for once, seing as she was trying to keep it out of her face, and her grey eyes were slightly clouded in thought.

"You okay Cayla?" Ash asked, snapping out of her daze.

"Huh? Oh uh yeah!" She blushed heavily. "I just, I don't know, I have a really bad feeling is all, but it might just be a stomach bug."

"If you feel sick go to the nurse." Serena drawled. 'Not like we want you here.' was left unsaid, but Cayla got the memo.

"Do you want me to walk you?" Ash offered.

"You really shouldn't push yourself you know." Clemont chimed in.

"Will a hug from Dedenne make you feel better?" Bonnie asked, and Dedenne scampered across the table, flinging itself into her arms.

Warmth blossomed in Cayla's chest and she ducked her head to hide a blush. "Thank you for your concern, but I'll be fine." When no one looked convinced she continued. "But if I do start feeling worse I'll make sure to go to the nurse." Nodding, they went back to eating.

"Cayla! You left without me!" A whine sounded before tanned arms wrapped around her. Many placed her head on the slightly taller girl's head.

"I told her to." Mikky rolled his eyes, sitting down with two trays. "And get off, thats rude."

Mandy pouted, but separated. "You're mean." She stated to her brother and sat down.

"I'm sorry, I'll be sure to wait next time." Cayla smiled.

"Don't you'll only spoil her." Mikky groaned, making the table laugh.

For the day's camp the groups were going to be making Poke-Vision Videos. Team Cyndaquil sat in their cabin, brainstorming over what they should be. Cayla fidgeted a bit, since she had an idea but didn't want to force it on them if it sucked.

"Do you have an idea?" Mandy asked throwing herself over Cayla's lap.

"Oh well actually..." Cayla stammered, hand mindlessly playing with the blonde's hair. "I was thinking that we could how off not only our friendship, but our Pokemon's as well." She fiddled her fingers through soft locks, refusing to meet their eyes. "We could do different shots, showing up bonding, and such..."

"Thats a great idea!" Mandy swooned.

"It is. Can you make Poke-Puffs?" Mikky asked.

Silver eyes lit up. "I can! I don't do it often because thats really Serena's thing, but I know how!" The twins smiled.

"Then lets go!"

Most of the video was finished, all except for the final scene that Mandy had came up with. As they walked through the forest in search of a field they bumped into Team Froakie and joined them in their search. Ash fell into step with Cayla as they walked, following Serena and Mandy as they lead the way.

"Are you feeling better?" He asked, concern in his brown eyes.

Cayla smiled at the concern, stomach fluttering with butterflies. "Yeah, I'm feeling a lot better!" It was a lie. There was till a twinge of dread that twisted in her chest, but they were so close to finishing the video, she didn't want to ruin it by being sick. 'CC is gonna scold me.' She realized, thinking back to the Solaceon Contest, when she had passed out because she was ill.

"Well, if you feel worse don't hesitate to tell someone." Ash grinned, patting her on the back. Cayla smiled and nodded, ignorant to blue eyes glaring daggers.

Serena took charge, running towards a field. "Guys! Over here is perfect!" She exclaimed.

"Serena no!" Ash yelled, running after her, and yanking her back just in time so she wouldn't run off the ravine.

"Oh! Sorry.." Serena muttered in embarrassment.

Cayla walked forward, looking to the ravine to a place to cross. Something hard slammed into her back, and she suddenly went rolling down the side, lading out cold at the bottom. Her Poke-Balls rolled out, and all her Pokemon popped out.

"Infernape!"

"Kirlia!"

"Eevee!"

"Oh no Cayla!" Ash gasped.

"I'm so sorry! I slipped on some rocks!" Serena gasped, face morphing into terror.

"I'm going down there, go get Professor Sycamore and tell him what happened!" Ash ordered, twisting his hat around. Pikachu jumped onto his shoulder and they started climbing down while the other's went for help.

Ash landed at the bottom a few minute's after. He ran to the passed out girl and picked her up. "She just hit her head." He breathed a sigh. "Dawn, Pikachu, and CC you three gather some leaves that we can rest her head on. Ro, you stay here and make sure that if she wakes up she doesn't move. I'll get her some water." He ordered, walking to the stream.

When Ash got back Cayla's eyes were open, her head resting on bright green leaves. CC sat to the side, while Dawn and Pikachu were leaning over both Cayla's shoulders, and Ro walked the perimeter, red eyes glaring in everything that moved. Chuckling, Ash sat down, his hat filled with water. He ripped a side of his shirt, dipping it into the water before putting onto her forehead. Her face was a bit flushed, but it didn't look like a blush.

"Thank you." She whispered, smiling slightly.

"No problem, how are you feeling?" He asked.

"Well, I'm a bit dizzy, but other wise I think I'm okay."

"The others will be back soon."

"I know." Cayla mused, tilting her head to look at him. "Ah, your shirt...."

"Yeah, I don't have a handkerchief on me." He explained, rubbing his neck.

"I'm sorry." She murmured.

"Infernape!" 'Don't!'

"Eebwee!" 'You didn't do anything!'

"Kirlia Lia Kirli!" 'Don't you dare!'

"Pikachu!" 'Don't apologize!'

"Don't apologize, I'm the one that ripped my shirt. Not you." Ash sighed.

The ravine was suddenly filled with giggles as Cayla laughed. They all spoke at once, so she had no idea what they said, but at the same time she got the jist. "Alright." She sighed. "You win. Thank You though. All of you."
