???'s pov
Within seconds of opening my eyes, I was coughing. My lungs were burning like I'd been holding my breath for an absurdly long period of time. I stayed as still as possible while coughing as to not make it worse. When the coughing was finished, I sat up. The first thing I noticed was the slightly baggy t-shirt and shorts that I was wearing instead of the hoodie and leggings that I swear I was wearing when I entered Route 9. I looked around the room I was in. I knew it wasn't mine instantly since I don't have a room. I have a tent. I looked over minuet details in the room. The window had old ripped curtains, several claw marks at the bottom of the fabric. A mic stand and speaker was in one corner and pieces of paper scattered the floor. Cans of hairspray scattered across the desk in one corner of the room. As for the clothes, they smelled of hairspray and Zigzagoons. I pulled the covers back and tried to stand up only to collapse on the floor amongst the paper due to pain in my leg. I hissed at the pain reaching for my leg. It was horribly bruised and swollen. I groaned. That would be a pain to work with. Then it hit me. I didn't have any of my pokeballs on me. I used the wall to help myself to my feet, shaking as I did so with the pain it caused in my leg. I limped towards the closed door, pulling it open. The room that I walked into was probably a living room judging by the worn down couches and old TV. I could hear someone snoring so it wasn't too hard to figure that they were on the couch asleep. I shuffled forward slightly and that was something I regretted 2 seconds later because Avalee,-with her giant ears and amazing hearing- heard me. She sat up faster than I could say Dubwool and let out a loud screech of happiness that I was not prepared for in the slightest and nearly destroyed my hearing in the process. I fell to the floor after choosing to cover my ears with my hands instead of keeping myself up against the wall. The person on the couch sat up, covering their ears in an attempt to block out the sound as well. Avalee quietened down and rushed over, nuzzling her nose against me.
"Hey there girl. Please don't do that again" I ask her. She releases a quiet chirp in response.
"Seriously. That's like the ninth time you've done this" the person on the couch stated, pushing themselves up and checking their phone. I froze up, staring at the person who was in the room with me. They turn to me, long monochromatic hair whipping into their face. I stared at them, probably looking like Deerling in lights. A guy although the hair could have told me otherwise. Very slim and lanky as well as tired and pale. The hair went down past his waist and basically looked like it belonged to a girl. I bite my lip, turning my gaze down to the floor instead of on him.
"When did ya wake up?" he asks.
"A couple m-minutes ago" I mumble, squeezing my wrist.
"How long-" I start but cut myself off. Instead I occupy my mind by running one hand over Avalee's muzzle.
"Two days. Since its 'round eight now, this is the third day" he explains, looking back down at his Rotom phone. With all the noise that Avalee had made, she'd woken up any other pokemon in the room. I was quickly bombarded by my entire team who were happy to see me again. Rex was right on top of me, showering my face in loving licks. I pet his head in an attempt to get free from the licks. He pauses in his licks before sitting down on the ground with a thump, spiked tail brushing across the floor. The guy walks forward and I cover my head in an attempt to protect myself. Rex nuzzles into my hand, small sparks licking at the skin. My arm is pushed down and I'm face to face with the guy. He offers me a hand. I hesitate, just staring at it before taking it.
"I'm Piers" he mumbles, pulling me up to my feet. I fall forward, pain shooting through my leg. Piers caught me, stumbling back into the couch when he did so. I stared forward, feeling completely embarrassed by that.
"Are you alright?" he asks. I bite my lip again. He helps me to the couch and lets me sit on it. He sits down next to me, tips of hair brushing against my arm. I turn away, now facing Oran who was sniffing my face, two tipped tail curling around his paws. I placed one hand on his head, rubbing between his ears. He leaned into it, eyes closed and gem glowing ever so slightly. I looked back over to Piers who was looking at my ankle.
"Yer gonna need a doctor or someone. That looks nasty" he points out. He then looks up to me.
"D'ya have a name?"
"Willow" I mumble, looking at my feet.
"I'll help ya to a doctor's office. Get that injury treated" he explains. I give a small nod, looking over to Oran again who tilts his head and twitches his ears. I give him a small smile and he straightens his head again before jumping down and going over to the rest of my team.
