My computer's been acting up and I'm thinking of getting a new one. The only way i could get on here and read is on my ipod. Luckily, school started again so I can use their computers to submit my work.\n\n\u0026nbsp;\n\nChapter\u0026nbsp;4-The Capture  \n\u0026nbsp;\n\nEevee woke up with his eyes\u0026nbsp;half-open. It was night.\u0026nbsp;From what he could see,\u0026nbsp;he was in a cage in\u0026nbsp;the middle of a\u0026nbsp;forest and there was\u0026nbsp;a fire burning not to far away\u0026nbsp;with unfamiliar people\u0026nbsp;sleeping around\u0026nbsp;it. Still half-awake, he tried\u0026nbsp;to make out who they were. They were male,\u0026nbsp;had green hair with\u0026nbsp;bowl\u0026nbsp;haircuts and...spacesuits? Then it hit him, he's been captured. Memories of the\u0026nbsp;day's events suddenly came rushing back to him.  \n\u0026nbsp;\n\nFlashback:  \n\u0026nbsp;\n\nEric had just finished telling Eevee that he was going to capture more pokémon.\u0026nbsp;It was then Eevee felt that they were being followed. He turned around and saw\u0026nbsp;a Golbat flying behind them, which was strange because Golbat weren't usually\u0026nbsp;active in the day. Even if they were, they were usually found\u0026nbsp;in\u0026nbsp;dark\u0026nbsp;forests and caves were there wouldn't be that much light, but this\u0026nbsp;one was flying around in an open field.\u0026nbsp;As he turned back around to tell\u0026nbsp;Eric, there was a large explosion in front of them, kicking up a large amount  \nof dirt in the air. The blast blew Eevee of Eric's shoulder tumbling a few feet\u0026nbsp;behind him.\u0026nbsp;\n\n\u0026nbsp;\n\n\"Eevee? Eevee, where are you?!\" Eric shouted in the dirt\u0026nbsp;cloud. The dirt cloud was so thick, they couldn't see anything.\u0026nbsp;Eevee got\u0026nbsp;up and started to\u0026nbsp;run in the direction of his voice. As soon as he did, something\u0026nbsp;hit him, knocking him back further away from Eric. Panicked now, he scrambled\u0026nbsp;to get on his feet, but was once again knocked back down.\u0026nbsp;\n\n\u0026nbsp;\n\n\"Eevee, where\u0026nbsp;are you?!\" Eric shouted again. Not wanting to get hit again, he stayed\u0026nbsp;down and crawled to where he heard Eric's voice. While he was crawling, he had\u0026nbsp;a feeling that something was following him again. Just then, a pair of fangs\u0026nbsp;appeared in front of him. He looked up and saw that it was the same Golbat that  \nwas flying behind them. \n\n\u0026nbsp;\n\n\"Playtime's over fox boy.\" said the Golbat in\u0026nbsp;Spanish. (Since it's been a while since I've spoken Spanish, I'll keep it in\u0026nbsp;English for now.) Before Eevee had time to register what he said, the golbats'\u0026nbsp;eyes glowed a bright red. Eevee suddenly felt extremely sleepy.\u0026nbsp;\n\n\u0026nbsp;\n\n'Dammit, he's\u0026nbsp;using Hypnosis'\u0026nbsp;Eevee thought. He would have gone to sleep right\u0026nbsp;there if it hadn't been for the fact that he was desperately looking for Eric.\u0026nbsp;The golbat flew above Eevee and picked him up by his furry collar and flew him\u0026nbsp;out of the dust cloud.  \n\u0026nbsp;\n\nEevee, barley conscious, realized\u0026nbsp;that he was out of the dirt cloud and...flying?\u0026nbsp;He looked around and saw  \nthat the Golbat was carrying him. He struggled to get free but found that his\u0026nbsp;movements were\u0026nbsp;extremely sluggish\u0026nbsp;because of the Hypnosis.Even his head wouldn't lift up.\u0026nbsp;The golbat suddenly stopped in front of a  \nblack pickup\u0026nbsp;truck. The passenger door opened and Eevees'\u0026nbsp; eyes went\u0026nbsp;wide when he saw who came out of the truck and, for some reason, shaking off the\u0026nbsp;effect of Hypnosis. 'Green hair, evil smile, spacesuit. It's the same\u0026nbsp;guy that was trying to grab me at that store.' he thought.\u0026nbsp;\n\n\u0026nbsp;\n\n\"ERIC, GET YOUR\u0026nbsp;ASS OVER HERE!!!\" Eevee shouted.\u0026nbsp;\n\n\u0026nbsp;\n\nEric, upon hearing Eevees' scream for\u0026nbsp;help, ran over to where his voice came from. When he arrived on the scene, Eevee\u0026nbsp;was being put in a cage and loaded in the cab of the\u0026nbsp;truck.\u0026nbsp;\n\n\u0026nbsp;\n\n\"What the\u0026nbsp;hell do you think you're doing to my Eevee?! Give him back!\" Eric shouted\u0026nbsp;in anger at the green haired man. The man turned around to face\u0026nbsp;Eric\u0026nbsp;\n\n\u0026nbsp;\n\n\"I don't think so. Team Galactic doesn't take orders from brats.\"  \n\u0026nbsp;\n\nEric, enraged by the guys' attitude, charged at him to try and rescue Eevee. The green haired man\u0026nbsp;merely smiled and said \"Golbat, use Haze.\"\u0026nbsp;\n\n\u0026nbsp;\n\nGolbat took in a\u0026nbsp;deep breath and let out a dark\u0026nbsp;cloud of smoke in front of Eric. Eric\u0026nbsp;stopped running and furiously rubbed his watering eyes. Just then, he heard the\u0026nbsp;truck start up.\u0026nbsp;\n\n\u0026nbsp;\n\n\"Aargh, you're not getting away with this!!!\"\u0026nbsp;Eric yelled running out of the dark cloud just in time to see the truck\u0026nbsp;start\u0026nbsp;driving off. With a sudden burst of energy in his legs, he ran faster\u0026nbsp;and grabbed on the back of the truck before it got enough speed to lose him. Once\u0026nbsp;he pulled himself up enough to get a look inside the cab, he was greeted by\u0026nbsp;a\u0026nbsp;not-so-friendly-looking croagunk. The frog pokémon stood up\u0026nbsp;and\u0026nbsp;brought its right paw out to its side. Then swung it's arm forward\u0026nbsp;and\u0026nbsp;hit Eric in the temple, effectively knocking him out. Eevee watched in\u0026nbsp;horror as his trainer and friend, was sent tumbling onto the side of the road.\u0026nbsp;With feelings of\u0026nbsp;anger\u0026nbsp;and\u0026nbsp;despair taking over his mind, Eevee thrashed around in the small cage,\u0026nbsp;trying to break free. A couple minutes later,\u0026nbsp;one the galactic grunts got\u0026nbsp;tired of hearing Eevee shake the cage behind them and released a Golbat from\u0026nbsp;its ball.\u0026nbsp;\n\n\u0026nbsp;\n\n\"Golbat, put that Eevee to sleep will ya. It's gonna be a pain\u0026nbsp;to hear that all the way back to hq.\" With that said, the golbat flew\u0026nbsp;behind the truck in front of Eevees' cage.\u0026nbsp;\n\n\u0026nbsp;\n\n\"Oy, chico, I suggest you calm\u0026nbsp;down or you're gonna force me to do my job, which I don't feel like\u0026nbsp;doing.\" said the golbat.\u0026nbsp;\n\n\u0026nbsp;\n\n\"Go to hell you blood-sucking bastard!\"\u0026nbsp;replied Eevee.\u0026nbsp;\n\n\u0026nbsp;\n\n\"Oy, that was uncalled for. I'm just trying to help make\u0026nbsp;this trip a lot more pleasurable for you. You can watch the scenery while\u0026nbsp;you're trapped in there.\"\u0026nbsp;\n\n\u0026nbsp;\n\n\"If you really want to help, then get me\u0026nbsp;out of this damn cage!\" Eevee said while hitting the cage again.  \n\u0026nbsp;\n\n\u0026nbsp;\n\n\"Ray, either you shut that kid up or I do.\" Eevee looked behind the Golbat\u0026nbsp;to see who was talking. It was the croagunk that knocked Eric off the truck.  \n\u0026nbsp;\n\n\"Sorry, but I don't think that will be necessary.\" replied Ray.  \n\u0026nbsp;\n\n\"Mind your own business you\u0026nbsp;ugly little toad! Eevee\u0026nbsp;shouted. Croagunk\u0026nbsp;looked at Eevee in shock at first, and then showed a sinister smile. (I tried\u0026nbsp;picturing it too, but work with me.)\u0026nbsp;\n\n\u0026nbsp;\n\n\"Look,\u0026nbsp;you obviously\u0026nbsp;don't know who I am, so I'll let that little comment slide this time.\"  \n\u0026nbsp;\n\n\"Ooohhhh, I'm getting off easy by an\u0026nbsp;ugly swamp fish. I'm\u0026nbsp;so scared I'm getting goose bumps.\" This was enough to send croagunk over\u0026nbsp;the edge.\u0026nbsp;\n\n\u0026nbsp;\n\n\"You're gonna get more than goose bumps when I get done with\u0026nbsp;you.\" he said walking toward Eevees' cage. Ray, the golbat, tried to\u0026nbsp;intervene by talking the croagunk down so he wouldn't do something he'll regret\u0026nbsp;later, but his words fell on deaf ears.(if croagunk have ears. not sure.) Eevee\u0026nbsp;moved\u0026nbsp;to get\u0026nbsp;ready to fight, but he remembered that he was in a cage that he\u0026nbsp;could barely move in.\u0026nbsp;\n\n\u0026nbsp;\n\n'Aww, how did I forget I was in a cage?' he thought to\u0026nbsp;himself.\u0026nbsp;'Oh yeah, I was bad mouthing a frog.' Once he finished his\u0026nbsp;thought, Eevee looked at the angry croagunk with the glowing white paw.\u0026nbsp;Croagunk lifted his arm and arched it back like he was readying a punch.  \n\u0026nbsp;\n\n\"Lights out.\" said\u0026nbsp;the croagunk. He launched his arm\u0026nbsp;forward toward Eevees' head. As Eevee watched his paw slip through the cage\u0026nbsp;bars, only one thought came to mind. '...aww sh-.'  \n\u0026nbsp;\n\nEnd\u0026nbsp;Flashback  \n\u0026nbsp;\n\n\"Guess that's what I get for\u0026nbsp;running my mouth.\" Eevee said as he reached up to feel a bump on his\u0026nbsp;head.\u0026nbsp;It was then he noticed that he was in a larger cage than he was in\u0026nbsp;before.\u0026nbsp;Just then, he heard something move behind him. Instinctively, he\u0026nbsp;got up and spun around to face whoever was behind him. Since the only source of\u0026nbsp;light was the\u0026nbsp;campfire,\u0026nbsp;it was sort of hard to see, but he did see a\u0026nbsp;familiar figure walk up to him.\u0026nbsp;\n\n\u0026nbsp;\n\n\"Y-you're the one in my\u0026nbsp;dreams!\"\u0026nbsp;he stuttered. Just then, the figure ran up to him and\u0026nbsp;covered his mouth. Eevee tried to shake it off but it held on.\u0026nbsp;\n\n\u0026nbsp;\n\n\"Shhhh.\u0026nbsp;you're gonna wake up the others.\" it said in a whisper. This calmed Eevee\u0026nbsp;down a bit. He looked around and saw what, from the sound of its voice, she was\u0026nbsp;whispering about. In a corner of the cage opposite of them, there was a group\u0026nbsp;of\u0026nbsp;sleeping pokémon.\u0026nbsp;He then noticed how soft her paw was against his\u0026nbsp;mouth and he accidentally started to nuzzle against it.\u0026nbsp;\n\n\u0026nbsp;\n\n\"I'm flattered\u0026nbsp;that you're dreaming about me, but I think we better introduce ourselves before\u0026nbsp;you start getting any ideas.\" she said as she removed her paw from his\u0026nbsp;mouth.\u0026nbsp;\n\n\u0026nbsp;\n\n\"Uh, yeah.\" Eevee said as he just realized what he was doing.\u0026nbsp;He turned to face her and saw that\u0026nbsp;she was a buizel.\u0026nbsp;\"I don't have a name,\u0026nbsp;so\u0026nbsp;I just go by\u0026nbsp;Eevee.\"\u0026nbsp;\n\n\u0026nbsp;\n\n\"Luckily for me, my trainer gave me\u0026nbsp;a name. I'm Mia.\" she said as she extended her paw for him to shake. He\u0026nbsp;accepted the offer and shook her paw. \"I guess you must be hungry since\u0026nbsp;you slept through what little dinner those jerks gave us.\"\u0026nbsp;\n\n\u0026nbsp;\n\n\"Actually...\"\u0026nbsp;\\*grumble\\* \"...I guess I am.\" Eevee said a little embarrassed by his\u0026nbsp;stomachs outburst.\u0026nbsp;\n\n\u0026nbsp;\n\n\"I thought you might be. I told myself that this eevee is gonna be hungry when he wakes up. I took half of my food and put it in leaf while they\u0026nbsp;weren't looking.\" Mia went over to a corner of the cage and picked up a\u0026nbsp;small object. She came back and placed a balled up leaf in front of Eevee.  \n\u0026nbsp;\n\n\"It's not much, but hopefully it'll get you through the night.\" Eevee\u0026nbsp;opened the leaf and took a bite of the pokémon food inside.\u0026nbsp;\n\n\u0026nbsp;\n\n\"It's...a\u0026nbsp;little dry.\" he said trying to chew the food.\u0026nbsp;\n\n\u0026nbsp;\n\n\"Yeah, you'll get used\u0026nbsp;to it.\" she replied as she sat down next to Eevee.\u0026nbsp;\n\n\u0026nbsp;\n\n\"Used to it? How\u0026nbsp;long have you been...uh, captured?\" Mia tilted her head to the side and\u0026nbsp;thinking.\u0026nbsp;\n\n\u0026nbsp;\n\n\"Let's see, I think it's been five days.\"\u0026nbsp;\n\n\u0026nbsp;\n\n'Whoa, five days'\u0026nbsp;Eevee thought. \"Have you ever tried to escape?\"\u0026nbsp;\n\n\u0026nbsp;\n\n\"A few times,\u0026nbsp;but every time I tried, they would send either Ray or Ralph after me.\" she\u0026nbsp;replied.\u0026nbsp;\n\n\u0026nbsp;\n\n\"Ray and Ralph? Who are they? Eevee asked while taking another\u0026nbsp;bite of food.\u0026nbsp;\n\n\u0026nbsp;\n\n\"They're golbat\u0026nbsp;brothers. You should've met them\u0026nbsp;already.\"\u0026nbsp;Eevee thought back to when he was in the cage.\u0026nbsp;\n\n\u0026nbsp;\n\n\"I\u0026nbsp;remember Ray...but who's Ralph?\" \"He's\u0026nbsp;probably the one who beat\u0026nbsp;you up a little in that dirt cloud.\"\u0026nbsp;\n\n\u0026nbsp;\n\n\"Oh, that guy. Does he\u0026nbsp;speak a different language? I didn't understand a word that guy said to me.\" Mia smiled.\u0026nbsp;\n\n\u0026nbsp;\n\n\"Yeah, he does\u0026nbsp;speak a different language. Ray hasn't told me what it is yet, not that we ever\u0026nbsp;get together and talk casually.\"\u0026nbsp;Just then, he heard\u0026nbsp;a low roar\u0026nbsp;next to him. He looked up at Mia and saw her blush a little.\u0026nbsp;\n\n\u0026nbsp;\n\n\"Looks like\u0026nbsp;I'm not the only one who's hungry\" said Eevee with a smirk. \"No I'm\u0026nbsp;not.\"\u0026nbsp;Mia\u0026nbsp;denied.\u0026nbsp;\\*grumble\\*\u0026nbsp;\n\n\u0026nbsp;\n\n\"Yes you are. Here, we'll\u0026nbsp;split it.\" Eevee moved the small pile of food so that it was between them.  \n\u0026nbsp;\n\n\"I'm only gonna eat a little bit, so eat the rest.\" she said as she\u0026nbsp;took a paw full of food. Eevee and Mia spent the\u0026nbsp;next twenty\u0026nbsp;minutes\u0026nbsp;eating and talking before calling it a night and going to sleep.  \n\u0026nbsp;\n\n\\*\\*\\*\\*\\*\\*\\*\\*\\*\\*\\*\\*\\*\\*\\*\\*\\*\\*\\*\\*8\\*\\*\\*\\*\\*\\*\\*\\*\\*\\*\\*\\*\\*\\*\\*\\*\\*\\*\\*\\*\n\n  \nEevee awoke to a cool,\u0026nbsp;windy\u0026nbsp;morning. The sun was only half-way up, so the sky had a\u0026nbsp;yellowish,\u0026nbsp;orange color with a little bit of that night-time blue in it. Eevee\u0026nbsp;thought that it was going to be a good morning, till he opened his eyes fully\u0026nbsp;and saw the cage bars. \n\n\u0026nbsp;\n\n\"Great. Now the highlights of my days are going to\u0026nbsp;be me sleeping.\" he thought to himself. He looks\u0026nbsp;in a corner\u0026nbsp;of\u0026nbsp;the cage and sees a group of sleeping\u0026nbsp;pokémon huddled together. He\u0026nbsp;looks to his right to see Mia sleeping peacefully next to him. A cold wind blew\u0026nbsp;through the cage, making Eevee shiver a little. Even though he has lots of fur, especially around his neck, he doesn't like cold weather very much. Not wanting\u0026nbsp;to feel natures' cold, pine-scented\u0026nbsp;breath, he got up and started to do\u0026nbsp;some light exercises. He started off\u0026nbsp;by doing some stretches to loosen his\u0026nbsp;muscles. After that, he started jogging in a small circle around the cage, but\u0026nbsp;soon realized it was a bad idea. After about five minutes,\u0026nbsp;Eevee started\u0026nbsp;feeling dizzy and couldn't maintain his balance, so he tripped over his own\u0026nbsp;feet and fell on his face.\u0026nbsp;\n\n\u0026nbsp;\n\n\"Note to self: don't run around in the\u0026nbsp;cage.\" he said aloud into the cage floor. His ears twitched at the sound\u0026nbsp;of someone...laughing? , Not wanting to move much because he couldn't see\u0026nbsp;straight, Eevee turned his head to see who it\u0026nbsp;was. He looked at the group\u0026nbsp;of sleeping pokémon first, but seeing that none of them moved or made any\u0026nbsp;sounds, he\u0026nbsp;quickly dismissed the idea of it being them.\u0026nbsp;He turned around to look at Mia. Even with his blurry\u0026nbsp;vision, he could still see she was\u0026nbsp;trying hard\u0026nbsp;to hold back\u0026nbsp;a\u0026nbsp;smile with\u0026nbsp;her eyes closed. He assumed she was trying to fake like she's\u0026nbsp;sleeping so, not wanting to pass up the chance for a quick laugh, he got up and\u0026nbsp;wobbled over to where she was. He sat down in front of her\u0026nbsp;with his back\u0026nbsp;to her face. he sat there for a couple of\u0026nbsp;minutes so that his head would\u0026nbsp;stop spinning. While he was sitting, Mia could finally calm herself down enough\u0026nbsp;so that she would look like she was sleeping.\u0026nbsp;Once his vision was back to\u0026nbsp;normal, he used\u0026nbsp;the tip of\u0026nbsp;his tail to lightly tickle her nose. Mia\u0026nbsp;sneezed, but didn't stir from her \"sleep\". He then stepped up his\u0026nbsp;efforts and used his tail to tickle her ear. This had an instant effect. Mia\u0026nbsp;snorted trying to hold in her laughter and quickly jerked her head away from Eevees'\u0026nbsp;tail.\u0026nbsp;\n\n\u0026nbsp;\n\n\"I knew you were awake.\" Eevee said with a big grin. Mia sat up\u0026nbsp;against the cage bars and looked at him with a big smile.\u0026nbsp;\n\n\u0026nbsp;\n\n\"Alright smarty pants,\u0026nbsp;mind telling me what you were doing just now?\"\u0026nbsp;\n\n\u0026nbsp;\n\n\"I was trying to warm\u0026nbsp;up my body. It's a little to chilly for me.\" he replied.\u0026nbsp;\n\n\u0026nbsp;\n\n\"You have all that\u0026nbsp;fur on you and you're still cold?\" she asked in disbelief. Eevee looked\u0026nbsp;away in embarrassment.\u0026nbsp;\n\n\u0026nbsp;\n\n\"Uh, yeah, I never really liked the cold.\" Mia\u0026nbsp;thought on this for a moment, then she came up with an idea.\u0026nbsp;\n\n\u0026nbsp;\n\n\"Instead of\u0026nbsp;running in circles, why don't you cuddle up with me so both of us can be\u0026nbsp;warm?\" Eevees' face turned beet-red from hearing her idea.\u0026nbsp;\n\n\u0026nbsp;\n\n\"T-t-that's\u0026nbsp;okay. I, uh, was just kidding about not liking the cold.\" he said slightly\u0026nbsp;panicked.\u0026nbsp;  \n\u0026nbsp;  \nJust then, a cold gust of wind blew through the cage, making\u0026nbsp;Mia shiver. When she looked at Eevee, he was sitting completely still and\u0026nbsp;looking very tense. Mia laughed a little under her breath, then scooted over to  \nEevee and pulled him into a hug.\u0026nbsp;\n\n\u0026nbsp;\n\n\"Do all girls make you this nervous or is\u0026nbsp;it just me?\" Eevee thought about her question for a little bit. He's been\u0026nbsp;friends with a sexually abusing aipom his whole life and recently a fully grown\u0026nbsp;Ninetails, so feeling nervous around girls is just a natural reaction to him.  \n\u0026nbsp;\n\n\"Just two girls really.\" he said closing his legs a bit.\u0026nbsp;\n\n\u0026nbsp;\n\n\"Oh, who?\"\u0026nbsp;Eevee began telling her about Aipom and Ember.\u0026nbsp;\n\n\u0026nbsp;\n\n\"You sure know how to pick your\u0026nbsp;friends.\" Mia teased.\u0026nbsp;\n\n\u0026nbsp;\n\n\"It's not my fault I was stuck with them, but they were\u0026nbsp;good to me at least.\" He said with a smile.\u0026nbsp;\n\n\u0026nbsp;\n\n\"Before I forget, let me introduce\u0026nbsp;you to everyone.\" There was a riolu, vulpix, sandshrew, plusle and minun. Judging from their size, Eevee guessed they were really young. \"His name's Kai,\u0026nbsp;pointing at riolu, he's Perry, pointing at sandshrew, she's Nina, pointing at\u0026nbsp;vulpix, and the twins are Kato, pointing at minun, and Tammy, pointing at\u0026nbsp;plusle.\"\u0026nbsp;  \n\u0026nbsp;\n\nA.N.(G1 and G2 are the two galactic members in the truck.)\n\n\u0026nbsp;\n\nThey sat together for an hour watching the sun rise behind\u0026nbsp;the trees and talking before the galactic members woke up. Once they did, they\u0026nbsp;cleaned up their campsite and started loading things in the truck.\u0026nbsp;\n\n\u0026nbsp;\n\n\"You want to\u0026nbsp;put them back separate cages or just leave them as they are?\" asked G1.\u0026nbsp;\n\n\u0026nbsp;\n\n\"Nah, just\u0026nbsp;leave them in there. Less work for us.\" replied G2. The grunts went over to the\u0026nbsp;cage of captured pokémon, picked it up and loaded them in the truck.\u0026nbsp;\n\n\u0026nbsp;\n\n\"Ya know, now\u0026nbsp;that I think about it, we didn't get the best collection of pokémon here.\" said\u0026nbsp;G1. His partner looked over their haul.\u0026nbsp;\n\n\u0026nbsp;\n\n\"Maybe you're right. What would happen\u0026nbsp;if Commander Saturn saw this?\"\u0026nbsp;\n\n\u0026nbsp;\n\n\"Or worse, Commander mars.\" A chill ran up their\u0026nbsp;spines at the thought of Mars punishing them.\u0026nbsp;\n\n\u0026nbsp;\n\n\"We better find a couple of rare\u0026nbsp;pokémon on our way back.\" said G2. With that said the grunts got in their truck\u0026nbsp;and drove toward hq.\u0026nbsp;  \n\u0026nbsp;  \nAt this point the other pokémon began to stir. Once they\u0026nbsp;were fully awake, they noticed Mia was hugging Eevee.\u0026nbsp;\n\n\u0026nbsp;\n\n\"So, you're the new guy?\"\u0026nbsp;asked Kai.\u0026nbsp;\n\n\u0026nbsp;\n\n\"Yeah, you're Kai right?\" Eevee replied.\u0026nbsp;\n\n\u0026nbsp;\n\n\"Uh, yeah. How did you\u0026nbsp;know?\" Kai asked, surprised that a complete stranger would know his name.\u0026nbsp;\n\n\u0026nbsp;\n\n\"Mia\u0026nbsp;told me all your names.\" A look of relief showed on Kais' face.\u0026nbsp;\n\n\u0026nbsp;\n\n\"Oh, I almost\u0026nbsp;thought you were using psychic powers to read my mind or something. Anyway, we\u0026nbsp;saw that little scene you made in the cage and I gotta say; you're pretty\u0026nbsp;dumb.\"\u0026nbsp;\n\n\u0026nbsp;\n\nThis comment left Eevee a little stunned. He looked at the other pokémon\u0026nbsp;and saw they were nodding in agreement. He then looked at Mia, who was trying\u0026nbsp;to hold in a laugh.\u0026nbsp;\n\n\u0026nbsp;\n\n\"Well, you did pick a fight with someone while you were\u0026nbsp;trapped in a cage.\" She said giggling. Eevee reflected on the event and looked\u0026nbsp;down in defeat.\u0026nbsp;\n\n\u0026nbsp;\n\n\"It was pretty stupid. I wasn't thinking straight. Still, I was\u0026nbsp;taken from my trainer; a friend I've known for a while. How was I supposed to\u0026nbsp;act?\"\u0026nbsp;\n\n\u0026nbsp;\n\n\"Look, I'm not picking on you or anything. I acted the same way when I\u0026nbsp;was taken from my mother. It's just funny when I see someone else do the same\u0026nbsp;mistake I did.\" Kai said with a toothy grin. \"It's not like we have much to\u0026nbsp;laugh about now...\" he finished in a sad tone. The other pokémon looked down at\u0026nbsp;the cage floor with sad faces.\u0026nbsp;  \n\u0026nbsp;  \nThings got quiet between them for a while. Eevee looked at\u0026nbsp;each of his inmates with a heavy heart which was only getting heavier every time\u0026nbsp;he looked at their sad faces. It eventually got to the point where he started\u0026nbsp;to shed tears.\u0026nbsp;\n\n\u0026nbsp;\n\n\"Eevee?\" Mia asked starting to feel him shake in her arms.\u0026nbsp;\n\n\u0026nbsp;\n\n\"...not fair.\"\u0026nbsp;\n\n\u0026nbsp;\n\n\"What?\"\u0026nbsp;\n\n\u0026nbsp;\n\n\"It's not fair!\" he shouted as he shook himself out\u0026nbsp;of her embrace. His sudden outburst startled the other pokémon. \"Why does this\u0026nbsp;have to happen?! First my parents are taken from me and now I've been\u0026nbsp;taken from my trainer by weirdly dressed thugs who kidnap pokémon! Young\u0026nbsp;pokémon\u0026nbsp;that can barely defend themselves from people like them!\" Eevees' anger was\u0026nbsp;getting the best of him again. He looked around the cage for a way out. Kai,\u0026nbsp;sensing danger, tried to calm him down.\u0026nbsp;\n\n\u0026nbsp;\n\n\"Hey, we're all in the same boat here.\u0026nbsp;Just...sit down and try to think of other things.\"\u0026nbsp;\n\n\u0026nbsp;\n\n\"No. I'm getting us outta\u0026nbsp;here.\" he said before charging a shadow ball.\u0026nbsp;\n\n\u0026nbsp;\n\n\"Eevee, wait!\" Mia pleaded. \"The\u0026nbsp;bars are too strong! You can't just bust outta here!\" Unfortunately, Eevee\u0026nbsp;wasn't listening to them and he shot a shadow ball at the cage bars. The force\u0026nbsp;of the attack didn't blow the bars apart, but it did blow the cab door open. Of\u0026nbsp;course when he blew the door open, the truck stopped and the two galactic\u0026nbsp;members got out the truck to investigate what happened.\u0026nbsp;  \n\u0026nbsp;  \n\"What the hell happened back here?\" asked G2. His partner\u0026nbsp;looked at all the pokémon and quickly figured out what was what.\u0026nbsp;\n\n\u0026nbsp;\n\n\"Looks like\u0026nbsp;the new guy still has some fight left in him.\" he said pointing to Eevee, who\u0026nbsp;was growling at them.\u0026nbsp;\n\n\u0026nbsp;\n\n\"Ya don't say. What do you think we should do with him?\" asked\u0026nbsp;G2.\u0026nbsp;\n\n\u0026nbsp;\n\n\"I got just the thing.\" The grunt reached over the cage and opened it from\u0026nbsp;the top. He reached for Eevee, who tried to bite him. He tried a second time,\u0026nbsp;faster than the first time, and grabbed the back of his neck. Eevee struggled\u0026nbsp;to get out of his grasp as he pulled him out the cage. The grunt merely smiled\u0026nbsp;and threw Eevee to the ground. Eevee got up and growled at the two grunts.\u0026nbsp;\n\n\u0026nbsp;\n\n\"Look,\u0026nbsp;you little runt, we can't have you damaging our truck like you just did the\u0026nbsp;whole way back to hq. So here's the deal, I'll battle you. If I win, you have\u0026nbsp;to sit quietly in that cage for the rest of the ride. If you win, you get to go\u0026nbsp;free. Sounds good right?\"\u0026nbsp;\n\n\u0026nbsp;\n\nHis partner looked over at him questionly. \"Dude,\u0026nbsp;what are you doing?\"\u0026nbsp;\n\n\u0026nbsp;\n\n\"Don't worry, I got this.\" replied G1. The grunt looked\u0026nbsp;back to Eevee, who seemed to have calmed down a bit. \"Well, what do you say?\" Eevee\u0026nbsp;shook his head and pointed to the cage.\u0026nbsp;\n\n\u0026nbsp;\n\n\"Oh, you want them to be set free as\u0026nbsp;well?\" Eevee nodded, at which point both grunts laughed.\u0026nbsp;\"Looks like we've got\u0026nbsp;ourselves a hero.\" G1 said through his laughing. \"Okay, we'll set them free\u0026nbsp;too.\" The pokémon in the cage had mixed feeling about his response. Sure they\u0026nbsp;were happy at the chance to be free again, but at the same time they didn't\u0026nbsp;trust he'll keep his word.\u0026nbsp;\n\n\u0026nbsp;  \nThe G1 released a croagunk from its pokéball. \"Well, look\u0026nbsp;who's out of their cage.\" the croagunk said.\u0026nbsp;\n\n\u0026nbsp;\n\n\"Shut up. Things are gonna be\u0026nbsp;different now. Once I beat you, we're outta here.\" Eevee said.\u0026nbsp;\n\n\u0026nbsp;\n\n\"Oh, is that\u0026nbsp;what the boss told you? You're in for a rude awakening.\"\u0026nbsp;\n\n\u0026nbsp;\n\n\"What do you mean?\"\u0026nbsp;\"Let's get things rolling runt.\" said G1. Eevee started off with a quick\u0026nbsp;attack.\u0026nbsp;\n\n\u0026nbsp;\n\n\"Before I forget, every time you attack, my partner here will shock\u0026nbsp;your friends with an almost lethal dose of electricity.\"\u0026nbsp;\n\n\u0026nbsp;\n\n\"The hell?!\" Eevee\u0026nbsp;said before stopped dead in his tracks. He looked at the grunts to see one of\u0026nbsp;them holding a device with electricity surging at the end.\u0026nbsp;\n\n\u0026nbsp;\n\n\"Unless you want your\u0026nbsp;friends to be fried, I suggest you get comfortable in there.\" G1 said with an\u0026nbsp;evil smile. Eevee has never really hated anyone before, but this guy, was getting on his very last\u0026nbsp;nerve. After careful thought and swallowing a lot of pride, he surrendered. G1\u0026nbsp;saw the look of defeat on Eevees' face and slowly approached him.\u0026nbsp;\n\n\u0026nbsp;\n\n\"Now that you\u0026nbsp;know your place, how 'bout you be a good little runt and stay quiet for the\u0026nbsp;rest of the ride.\" G1 picked him up, put him in the cage, and continued the\u0026nbsp;trip with his partner to Galactic headquarters.  \n\u0026nbsp;\u0026nbsp;\n\n\\*\\*\\*\\*\\*\\*\\*\\*\\*\\*\\*\\*\\*\\*\\*\\*\\*\\*\\*\\*8\\*\\*\\*\\*\\*\\*\\*\\*\\*\\*\\*\\*\\*\\*\\*\\*\\*\\*\\*\\*  \n\u0026nbsp;\n\nThe ride wasn't very pleasant from that moment on. Eevee wanted\u0026nbsp;to sleep a few minutes after the incident, telling the others that he'll feel\u0026nbsp;better after a nap. He never actually fell asleep, so he just closed his eyes\u0026nbsp;and pretended. Meanwhile, the others were talking about him.\u0026nbsp;\n\n\u0026nbsp;\n\n\"You think he's\u0026nbsp;ok?\" asked Nina.\u0026nbsp;\n\n\u0026nbsp;\n\n\"Don't think so. He was really looking forward to setting us\u0026nbsp;free.\" said Kai.\n\n\u0026nbsp;\n\n\"I feel sorta bad. I feel that we held him back from going\u0026nbsp;home.\" Perry said sadly.\u0026nbsp;\n\n\u0026nbsp;\n\n\"No, there was no helping it. I'm sure they would've\u0026nbsp;come up with something to keep him here even if we weren't here.\"\u0026nbsp;\n\n\u0026nbsp;\n\n\"...Still, I\u0026nbsp;feel kinda bad.\"\u0026nbsp;\n\n\u0026nbsp;\n\n\"Maybe we could cheer him up.\" Tammy suggested.\u0026nbsp;\n\n\u0026nbsp;\n\n\"Yeah, let's\u0026nbsp;cheer him up.\" Kato added.\u0026nbsp;\n\n\u0026nbsp;\n\n\"I guess it couldn't hurt to try.\" said Kai. \"But\u0026nbsp;first, we gotta wake him up.\"\u0026nbsp;\n\n\u0026nbsp;\n\n\"Oh, let me do it.\" Tammy said excitedly.\u0026nbsp;\n\n\u0026nbsp;\n\n\"Me\u0026nbsp;too.\" added Kato, who was just as excited. The twins rushed on either side of Eevee\u0026nbsp;and started poking him in his sides. When he didn't stir, they poked him\u0026nbsp;harder. Eventually they gave up. Even if they had good intentions, Eevee didn't\u0026nbsp;feel like socializing at the moment.\u0026nbsp;\n\n\u0026nbsp;\n\n\"He's not waking up.\" Kato complained.\u0026nbsp;\n\n\u0026nbsp;\n\n\"Ya\u0026nbsp;think we need to poke harder?\" asked Tammy.\u0026nbsp;\n\n\u0026nbsp;\n\n\"Nah, I already poked him as hard\u0026nbsp;as I could.\"\u0026nbsp;\n\n\u0026nbsp;\n\n\"Let me try.\" Nina said going to where they were. She grabbed his\u0026nbsp;tail with her maw and bite down as hard as she could.\u0026nbsp;\n\n\u0026nbsp;\n\n\u0026nbsp;\"HOLY S\\*\\*T!!!\" Eevee screamed at the top of\u0026nbsp;his lungs. He instinctively whipped his body around and protected his tail from\u0026nbsp;further harm. Nina spit out the little strands of his fur from her mouth. Mia, Kai,  \nand Perry watched the scene unfold to new heights. Eevee was licking his sore\u0026nbsp;tail while cursing under his breath, the twins, who seemed oblivious to what\u0026nbsp;was going on, sang a duet to cheer him up, and Nina was still trying to spit\u0026nbsp;out his fur. All this continued till the twins ran out of songs to sing. By\u0026nbsp;this time, Eevees' tail wasn't as sore, but it still stung from time to time.\u0026nbsp;Since this whole thing started, there was a question Perry needed answered.\u0026nbsp;  \n  \n\n\u0026nbsp; \"Uhh...Eevee?\" Eevee looked up to Perry. \"What does s\\*\\*t mean?\"\u0026nbsp;  \n  \nThat one question\u0026nbsp;made both Eevee and Mia's heart go near flat line. Since he was so young, the\u0026nbsp;world of swearing hasn't connected to his young mind yet. Not wanting to let\u0026nbsp;his vocabulary expand into the world of sailors and angry moms, they did the\u0026nbsp;only responsible thing parents would do in this situation.\u0026nbsp;\n\n\u0026nbsp;\n\n\"Don't you ever say\u0026nbsp;that word again!\" they both said together. Perry almost rolled up into a ball\u0026nbsp;at the sudden outburst. \"Why not?\" he asked a little scared of finding out the\u0026nbsp;answer.\u0026nbsp;\n\n\u0026nbsp;\n\n\"It's, uh... just something you shouldn't say casually- I mean not at\u0026nbsp;all.\" Eevee said.\u0026nbsp;\n\n\u0026nbsp;\n\n\"Y-yes, you shouldn't go around saying that word... ever.\" Mia cast a sideways glare at Eevee,\u0026nbsp;who was regretting saying that out loud.\u0026nbsp;\n\n\u0026nbsp;\n\n\"Mmm... ok.\" the sandshrew said a little\u0026nbsp;disappointed. Mia looked at the rest of the younger pokémon, who seemed\u0026nbsp;interested in this new word.\u0026nbsp;\n\n\u0026nbsp;\n\n\"That goes for the rest of you too.\" she said in a\u0026nbsp;parental tone. \u0026nbsp;\n  \n  \n\n","series":{"name":"T.E.C","previous":"https://fse.anthro.fr/stories/112035-the-eevee-chronicles-part-3.json","next":"https://fse.anthro.fr/stories/122070-the-eevee-chronicles-part-5.json"}}
