Luna wiggled a bit in her sleep, the little Eevee sprawled out on the cold stone of her family's den. she was snuggled up to her father, his body matching the coldness of the ground itself, in such a cold place.
Lightning struck a nearby tree, followed by some very loud thunder. Luna Jumped, tearing herself from her sleep as she suddenly sat up, darting her eyes towards the entrance to her den. her ears went limp atop her head and her tail went in between her legs. her whimpering and nuzzling for her father to wake...he didn't. wouldn't get up, he remained there, still as a lifeless being and cold as the stone beneath him...
Her heart sunk in her chest, and she started crying. the lighting and thunder only picking up in intensity the more she begged her father to wake up. all she wanted was to hear his voice, feel his warmth once more, feel his gaze upon her own, to look into those beloved, reassuring eyes of his...to know everything was going to be okay.
"Daddy, Please get up! I need you...something is outside, daddy please, I'm scared. I don't want to be alone!" Her eyes teared up, her body went stiff, and her heart seemed to stop for a moment. the cold realisation of what was happening, creeping upon her quite dis-comfortably. she had no idea what was happening, or what she should be doing about it...her gaze blurred by her tear stained eyes. she turned and faced the cave's mouth.
"I'll protect you, daddy. I will make sure nothing hurts you while you sleep..." She shuddered and began to walk towards the cave's entrance. once she felt the first drop of water upon her fur, she started running out. her eyes remaining stained with tears as she continued to run. she didn't know what was wrong, or what was happening...all she knew was that the threat did not show itself. the lightning reminding her of a jolteon she had known. the thought that her friend could be behind this made her sick to her stomach.
she kept running until her forepaw got caught on a branch and she flipped onto her back, whimpering her displeasure. she blinked, and attempted to get up, but a huge jolt of pain ran through her when she moved her paw. lightning continued to strike the skies above her. thunder bellowing afterwards. she whimpered and closed her eyes. she laid there, hoping everything would end. and upon one last loud sound of thunder. everything went silent.
She awoke in a small, cold cave. her rings lighting up a small bit of it. she blinked, her ears pinning against her head as a shiver ran down her spine. she gulped, and just laid there, watching the wall for a moment. looking around after a brief delay to see if anyone was around; it was empty
"just a nightmare...he wasn't really there...never will be...he is gone..." She shivered, the umbreon lowering her head to the ground and closing her eyes. wishing she could have seen her father's face once more...
