Chapter II: Eating habits.
A scream
was heard through the surroundings, Stormy jerked his head.
‘That
sounded like Evershine!’ he thought in panic, flying up into the air towards
the sound.
Evershine
was trembling, staring at the red liquid flowing on the crimson skin of the
pokémon.
‘Is it
dead?’ she thought, but then dismissed that thought, as she saw how it drew
small breaths.
“Evershine!”
she heard the worried voice of Stormy outside the bush.
Poking her
head out she yelled, “I’m here!”
Stormy
landed and said angrily; “Why did you scream?!”
“I saw this
pokémon here and…” Evershine jumped out from the bush and Stormy saw the Eon.
“It looks
like one of Eevee’s evolutions.” He commented, “But I’ve never seen one like
this before, or in a shape like this.”
Suddenly,
the Eon groaned and moved, the Pidgeottos jumped and turned to stare at it.
Every
muscle and nerve told him to lay down and sleep again, but he had heard
something, and he wanted to know what it was.
“Are you
awake now?” startled he opened his emerald eyes, looking in the voice’s general
direction.
“You aren’t
going to eat us, are you?” a second voice asked.
Now he saw
what they where, they where two Pidgeottos, and didn’t look like they would
kill him.
Rather,
they looked curious.
“Who are you?”
the Eon whispered.
“I am
Stormy, and this is Evershine.” The Eon recognised the voice as the one asking
him if he was awake.
“Who are
you?” Evershine asked, The Eon recognised her as the second voice.
“I don’t
have a name.” He whispered, voice still raspy.
“Well, What
are you then?” Stormy asked.
“I don’t
know, but yesterday I was an Eevee.” The Eon said.
“What do
you eat?” Evershine asked, looking at him worryingly.
“I’m sorry,
but I don’t know.” Then it was too much for the Eon, and he fell unconscious
again.
Evershine
turned towards Stormy, “What does Eevee evolutions eat?”
“Flareons
eat berries, Jolteons eat Stantlers, Umbreons eat Rattata, Vaporeons eat fish,
and Espeons eat berries, eggs and Rattata.” Stormy answered, a little confused
why she asked.
“I am going
to hunt for him!” she said confidently.
“But you
can’t even hunt for yourself!” Stormy said unbelievingly.
“Then I go
for berries and eggs, and you hunt!” Evershine said.
“No way! We
first see if he eats meat or grass or whatever.” Stormy said.
“How?”
Evershine asked.
“Hold his
lip so that I can see his teethes.” Stormy said, and Evershine did as she was
told.
“He eats
meat.” Stormy said.
“How did
you know that?” Evershine asked.
“He has the
fangs of a predator.” Stormy answered.
“So that means
that I am the one to stay here and guard, right?” Evershine said.
“Yup!”
Stormy took flight.
“If you
leave me here alone for too long, I’ll have your head!!!!” Evershine yelled
after him.
Stormy
swooped down at an Rattata, but it got away.
“Damn! I guess
being with Evershine has rubbed off on me.” Stormy said, taking to the air
again.
This time
he saw another prey, A Pikachu.
Pikachus
usually aren’t out in the open like that, and Stormy guessed that it relied on
it’s electric power.
“Rai!”
Stormy immediately looked another way, as the Pikachu’s mother had come.
After some
time he where growing frustrated, and now he didn’t even have much time left of
the day, as the sunset coloured the heaven orange.
In his
frustration, he swooped down at an Raticate, something Pidgeottos rarely does,
as it’s fangs could immobilise them until a hunger death, or hunted death,
came.
This
Raticate seemed to know that too, so it didn’t react when the bird came closer.
And that
was a deadly mistake.
Evershine
looked up at the sky, seeing Stormy return, And she was boiling with anger.
“Where have
you been?!” “How did you catch that?!” “I said to you to come back soon!!!!”
Not caring
for what she said, Stormy gestured towards the Eon.
“Has he
woken up when I was gone?” he asked.
“No.” was
Evershine’s rather angry reply, “Have you an idea of how bored I was?!”
Stormy
sighed.
“-bored I
was?!” the Eon opened his eyes, looking around in confusion, when it all dawned
on him.
Sniffling,
he tried to hold back his tears, to no avail.
Evershine
jumped and looked around, on the crying Eon.
Stormy,
also looked at him, feeling uncomfortable, as he didn’t know what to do in this
situations.
Suddenly,
motherly feelings welled up inside Evershine, and she jumped over to the Eon.
“Don’t
worry, everything’s fine, everything’s gonna be alright.” Evershine said in a
soothing voice.
