Poketale Sans x Abandoned Eevee Reader

Chapter 9 - A Battle

You shuddered on Sans' shoulder, petrified. Shamus looked at you with extreme distaste. He could've fainted you with that mean look if it could faint an opponent!

Sans picked you up, and held you in his arms. He stroked you gently, and looked at Shamus with a confused glance.

"A rematch? You know I beat you easily before... I'm just that good at my job, eh?" Sans smirked.

"I don't care! I want a rematch!"

"You do know you need to defeat Papyrus again, right?"

Shamus stiffened. He had to beat Papyrus again, huh? The last battle with Papyrus was tough.

But still, Shamus grumbled, and turned away, walking off.

You sighed, and purred, relaxing in Sans' touch. You were calm as long as that Purugly face was out of your sight. Shamus was a cruel trainer.

You trusted no one but Sans, Papyrus, Asriel, Frisk, Toriel, and their pokemon...

And the Marowak, of course.

Sans placed you down, and you smiled up at him. You shifted into a human again, and sighed.

"Who was that guy?" Sans asked.

"You remember how you found me, right?"

"Yeah... why?"

"Shamus... left me like that..." You muttered.

Sans had a look that could kill... "He... did... what?"

You looked down, "When... I lost a battle, he would feed me less... Until it was 1 bit of food a week... I only got fed about twice a month... then, he tied me to the pole after I tried to follow him home when he left me..."

Sans immediately hugged you, "I won't let him hurt you again..."

You hugged back, silent, but enjoying it. When you heard a bush rustle, you jolted, shifting to an Eevee again and jumping on Sans' shoulder.

"Easy, it's just a few Nidoran..." Sans smiled.

You blushed in embarrassment, before hearing something else. A pokemon... with power...

A Chikorita. You sighed, and jumped down, ready to battle. Chikorita whipped it's leaf in a circle. You growled, ready to battle.

But then a young woman came by. She saw the Pokèmon, and instantly picked up the Chikorita.

You were startled, but then recognised this trainer.

"Casey!"

You raced to her, nuzzling her legs.

"Um... (Y/n), over here!" Sans called.

You stepped away from Casey, going back to Sans.

"Oh, hello there! You know this Eevee?" Casey asked.

Sans nodded, "She was abandoned by an old warehouse..."

"Abandoned... by who? Shamus?"

"... How did you-?"

"Eevee knows me. So, her name is (Y/n)?"

"Yep."

You smiled, greeting Chikorita, but it growled at you, using a vine whip to hit you away.

"Chikorita, that wasn't nice! Apologise now!" Casey exclaimed, but Chikorita just turned its head away.

You whimpered a bit, but growled back. You were about to get up, when Sans got in front of you, picking you up.

"Is Chikorita always like that?" Sans asked.

"No! Not usually... say, how about a battle? I'm new to being a trainer, so I could use some practice."

You just looked at Sans with a pleading look. "No, please... don't let me go against the Chikorita..."

Sans nodded, "Okay. It would be a great battle to try out. (Y/n), you ready for your first battle with me?"

You whimpered, but nodded, jumping out of his arms and Chikorita was in front of Casey, its leaf waving the same way it was before.

You swallowed nervously. "I guess this is what I have to do now.... Battle Casey's Chikorita.... Oh well, LET'S GO!!" You thought, letting out a battle cry.
