Chapter 12: Blue (2)
Time passed as Blue Leaf stayed in Saffron City.
She did not know how long.
For her attention was always on Eevee.
The poor Pokémon was beaten.
In body and spirit.
Shortly after receiving her, Blue introduced her Pokémon to the fox.
"So this here's the gang, Ivy you know," the girl introduced, trying to stay positive.
She had decided to nickname her Pokémon in an effort to make sure Eevee would not be intimidated by her new fellows.
It was a small thing but she wanted to do everything she could to help the brown fox.
"Haunty, Cleffy and Vulpy," Blue finished.
Her hand made its way towards Eevee's head.
"I wonder what I should call you?"
"I know this is sudden, but I hope we could get alo—"
Eevee weakly glanced at her and slowly tilted her head.
That was more than enough to trigger Blue's phobia.
In an instant, she jerked her hand away.
Trembling with horror.
"Vee…" Eevee called out weakly.
"I… I…" Blue muttered, her bottled fear leaking faster.
Her heart beats faster.
Adrenaline kicked in.
And Eevee fell asleep.
'I'm scared… Was it because she bit me that time?' Blue thought.
Her Ivysaur, now Ivy, her starter understood.
The Pokémon could only look in horror at his Trainer's shivering hands.
'No, that wasn't it.'
'I was scared of how distant Eevee was to me…' she concluded, face pale.
The girl knew.
She never conquered her fears.
The gloves were just her escape from the truth.
'Whoever heard of a Trainer scared to touch their own Pokémon?'
Ivy reached out to her with his vine.
Seeing this, Blue unconsciously flinched away.
'At some point, I thought…' she thought to herself.
'If I went on a journey…'
Ivysaur wore a hurt expression.
'Even a coward like me…'
'… might be able to become a great Trainer someday.'
The tears spilled out.
Days bled into weeks.
But Eevee was still asleep.
It was as if the Pokémon was building up walls around it.
"… It must be dreaming," Nurse Joy observed.
The nurse was checking on Eevee's condition, who was in her Ball.
"It's been in REM sleep for a long time," the nurse continued.
