The three trainers left early the next morning, as soon as the sun was up. They were traveling on the next stretch of their journey,in the Unova region, Nimbassa City. They had come here from Kanto to train their pokemon and that is what they were going to do. 

 Luca with Umbreon, Horsea and his newest pokemon Deino. Amy with her Cyndaquil and her Dewott and finally, Marcus with his Snivy and his Blitzle. 

They walked for miles before finally Amy sat down on a rock and said "I can't walk anymore... I think we're lost"

"Yeah Amy I tink we are." Marcus said in his usual gruff voice. 

Shaking his head Luca sat with his friends and began to unpack his bag. "hungry anyone?"

"Yeah!" Amy's voice rang "I want food"

" Amy I don't know how you're that skinny yet eat so much" Marcus said jokingly.

Luca began making lunch for him and the others when Umbreon (who was always at his side) perked it's ears and looked around, uneasily. 

" Umbreon.... Whats up?" 

The pokemon suddenly dashed away leaving it's gaping mouthed trainer in the dust.

"Umbreon come back! Where are you going!?" 

Hearing the shouting, Amy and Marcus rushed over to their friend's side.

" Umbreon!" Luca cried out and ran after his beloved pokemon. "Umbreoooonnn!!"

He ran until his legs cried in pain but he still didn't stop.  He finally came to a green clearing. The grass was full of yellow and red wild flowers and the wind tugged softly on his hair. It was beautiful.

Umbreon was in the middle of the clearing staring straight ahead. Luca ran up to his pokemon and kneeled next to it. "Are you okay? That wasn't like you to run off" 

The pokemon ignored him and carried on staring sraight forwards. Puzzled Luca followed Umbreons gaze. In front of the pair was a small creature. It had black fur with red tips and long pointed ears. "Is that a pokemon?" Luca whispered. 

He took his pokedex out of his pocket and identified the creature as a Zorua. "wow" Luca was dumbfounded. A legenday. In front of him.

Once he got back his senses, Luca took his blanket out of his bag and wrapped the small figure in it. "Umbreon lets go back. Amy will be able to help it." The pokemon nodded in agreement and the two set off towards camp, carrying the bundle with them.
