Chapter Three: Weird Night

 

Continuing to walk the two trainers soon found themselves in a spacious clearing with a small pond towards the center. Looking around Yoko nodded his head, pulling his bag off his shoulders. Squirtle smiled, diving into a small pond nearby. Surfacing he floated around on his back as Vulpix laid on the bank.

“Well it appears there are no bug pokémon in the area,” Yoko commented as he sat down.

“Good, I rather not get attacked again,” Scarlet, sighed as she laid on her back, “I still don't get why Weedle attacked me.” Not saying a sound Yoko fished out a pokéball from his pocket. Scarlet stiffened noticing the previously mentioned bug nestled inside. Clicking the center Yoko released Weedle causing Scarlet to look at him with a wide, Stanler caught in the headlights look.

“W…what are you doing,” Scarlet stuttered, her eyes trained on the yellow caterpillar, “I must tell you me and bug pokémon have never met eye to eye.” Weedle noticing Scarlet lowered his head, waiting for any sudden movements.

“Wait just relax, act as if you don't even notice it as if you have no interest,” Yoko told her as he eyed Weedle. His hand was still on the pokéball as precaution to an attack. Nodding Scarlet let out a deep breath, letting her mussels relax completely. Putting her hands behind her head, she stared up at the roaming clouds.

Looking a little confuse Weedle tilted his head before making his way over to her. Out of the corner of her eye Scarlet saw Vulpix, raise herself to her feet. Her tails wagging as she readied to saver her trainer, just in case. Getting within a few centimeters Weedle stretched out and sniffed gently, his large pink nose moving ever so slightly.

“Wee Weedle!” He cried out before jumping onto Scarlet's stomach. A large smile gracing his face. Vulpix smiled seeing there was no danger coming to her trainer, as she lowered herself back onto the bank. Resting her head on her paws, she closed her eyes, deciding on a slight nap.

“Well it appears Weedle doesn't see you as a threat anymore Scarlet,” Yoko explained as he stood. Walking over he scooped the bug into his arms. Rubbing his stomach Yoko held up the pokéball. Recalling the bug, he laid back down, latching the pokéball next to Squirtle's on his pants.

As the sun set the two started making camp. Opening their backpacks each pulled out a sleeping bag. Scarlet took it on herself to unfold and set them up as Yoko tried to start a fire. Gathering wood, he made a small pit. Sitting in front of it, he started striking a rock against a flint. Not ever a spark came into view. Scarlet sat cross legged on her sleeping bag, watching him. Hearing her laugh for what seemed like the hundredth time he threw down the flint.

“If you think its so funny why don't you light the fire,” Yoko snapped.

“Gladly,” Scarlet laughed before looking at Vulpix, “A small ember on the wood please.” Nodding Vulpix opened her mouth, a small flame coming fourth. She backed off the second the wood ignited. Curling back up the little fox smiled up at Yoko who just grumbled. Scarlet laughed causing him to throw a pebble at her. She continued to laugh until the two settled down for the night.

A few hours later everyone was fast asleep. Scarlet was passed out on her back, Vulpix curled on her stomach. Yoko sprawled out on his stomach, Squirtle fast asleep beside him. Letting out a frustrated sigh Yoko turned around, rubbing his face. He just couldn't get to sleep. Deciding on looking for constellations he flipped himself around before placing his arms under his head.

Hearing a noise his head perked up. Looking around he raised an eyebrow, swearing he heard a whine coming from a Growlith pup. He rubbed his head as he realized the sound was coming from nearby. Straight ahead of him he noticed Scarlet thrashing in her sleeping bag, Vulpix looking at her concern. Climbing out of his own he made his way over to her.

A look of pure shock took over his face as he realized something. He whining was coming from her. Leaning down he grasped her shoulder and shook her hard. Opening her eyes with a small sound Scarlet blinked a few times. Seeing Yoko towering over her with a freaked out expression on his face.

“Hmm what's going on Yoko?” She asked tiredly, rubbing her left eye. He looked around, realizing the whining had completely stopped.

“Well I could have sworn I heard a Growlith whining and well, the sound was coming from you,” He told her, rubbing the back of his head.

“Wait what, why would I sound like any pokémon I'm human?” She asked him, staring him right in the eyes.

“I don't know I'm just telling you what I heard,” He told her.

“Fine fine, alright, can I go back to sleep now?” She asked, almost snapping. Nodding he made his way back to his own sleeping bag. Laying back down he saw her already back to sleep, Vulpix once again curled on her stomach. He sighed, turning to his side. Gradually he succumbed to sleep, still utterly confused as to why or even how Scarlet sounded while a Growlith.
