Chapter 4

Narrator Prov

Upon reaching Professors Elms Lab in New Bark Town (Y/N) and Zorua were captivated by the towns simplicity, neither of them had been here before but Maggie the trader from Unova seemed quite at home as she steered the Pokémon into a small fenced area and pulling the wagon to a halt. Dismounting the Vehicle, (Y/N) jogged around the back and called out "hey Maggie, do you want me to help you unload?" the old lady replied back "yes" as she hobbled around to the back.

Unhinging the tailboard, which clattered down rather loudly making the Tauros snort and walk forward a couple of feet, then Zorua hoped up and shoved the boxes down closer to the waiting arms of (Y/N) and Maggie. Managing to lift the heavy crates to the front door of Maggies house "would you like a drink (Y/N)" Maggie asked as she opened the front door, (Y/N) commented "don't worry, you didn't have to do anything for me." After shifting all the crates into the house (Y/N) and Zorua bid Maggie farewell before they hurried over to Prof Elms Lab with Zorua taking cover under its Pikachu illusion.

(Y/N) Prov

Running to the large Lab which too its place among the houses, (Y/N) looked back at Zorua who ran alongside her and she couldn't help but smile; once this Zorua was being hunted and now it was happy and free. For now.

"There's that kid!" an awfully familiar voice shouted behind her followed by a couple of shadow balls which barely missed her face! She gulped and turned around on the spot along with Zorua who instantly started to growl "you think you can hide from us forever kid?" the hunter with the red cap asked rhetorically. (Y/N) gritted her teeth and fell into a stance which would allow her to get away quickly.

Tension rising, (Y/N) heard Zorua yell in determination "(Y/N)...Battle!" making shock strike her like a thunderbolt. Nodding, Zoruas illusion faded once it was given permission to battle whilst on the other side the hunters were going at them with all three of their shared Pokémon.

Feeling confidant that (Y/N) knew all four of Zoruas attacks, she quickly told it to use Shadow Ball on Ariados and once it landed the bug type fell backwards so that its legs were stuck straight up in the air. Grinning, Zorua couldn't help but giggle at its antics but unfortunately this gave an opening for the Sneasel's to fire back with a couple of Shadow Balls of their own! Fortunately, Zorua was a fast Pokémon and managed to dodge one but the other struck its leg causing it to cry out in pain "NO!" cried (Y/N) as she watched in horror as the Unova Pokémon struggled to get up.

Through a lot of grunting and growling, Zorua was back up on its feet and yelled "NO!" in defiance making (Y/N)'s confidence soar sky high once knowing that it was okay. From the small Pokémon emitted a powerful blazing red aura which surrounded its body and raising its two front paws with its two eyes blazing with an electrifying blue and slamming its two front paws down it released a Crimson and pink force field which engulfed the entire battlefield in one fell swoop.

It struck both Sneasels along with the hunters who fell onto their backs. however, as one Sneasel fell backwards along with its master the other managed to dig its long white claw into the ground and held on grimly as it waited for the blast to end.

Zorua's Prov

Zorua looked back at (Y/N) with a large grin on its face and was expecting to be praised but was welcomed by the sight of its friend rubbing her head and sat on the floor with one arm supporting her as she sat and it also seemed like she had been sent back a couple of feet from where she once stood.

Suddenly, the (H/L) (H/C) girl shouted something and pointed directly in front of it with a look of panic on her face. Following her line of sight Zorua's eyes became wide as one of the Sneasel's came running up to it and about to use its Slash attack on it and not having any close combat moves available; the poor Pokémon had to run away on the battle field to avoid being knocked out.
