Disclaimer: I do NOT own Pokemon, as I've said before. If I did, I'd have plenty of money to spare, Ash and Misty would be together (although there might be some evidence that they might..), and that baka May wouldn't have stepped into the studio. *grins evily* HOWEVER. I DO own, Sam, Lightning, Prita, the ingrave, the plot..Basically everything that doesn't make much sense..*grins*

Claws digging into the rich earth underneath his feet, the great cat struck, one tail lashing upon the others fur, adding a crimson scar to her collection, blood oozing from the open wound. His large, lavender eyes filling with pride, as he lunged toward the dog-like creature struggling to get up. Fangs exposed, he tried to grip a paw, a wing, anything that would make her immoble, making her so weak in which she would fall, turning her into a delicious meal after the human appitizers.

I'm not giving up now, Sam thought. Not when I've finally found her. No. Not. Again. With this in mind, she sprung up, slashing the cat with her tail. Sparks emmited from her crimson cheeks, engulfing the creature in a shower of sparks. Roaring in pain, the great feline slumped to the floor, appearing to be unconsious.

He couldn't have been that easy, another voice echoed. He's tricking us. I'm sure of it. With this thought, she cautiously approached, claws extended. Lowering her neck, she saw his eyes widen, when he lunged at her, grabbing at her paw, sinking his teeth in. When it was finally released, she could see the broken bones, blood oozing violently.

During all this, however, Misty stared at the two magnificant creatures dueling. 'But for what? What are they fighting about?' Confused, she fingered at the LureBall's engravement, when something odd came to her. A, memory of some sort. But, why hadn't she thought of it before?

"You must only use this when you are in absolute danger. She's perfectly trained, just say that I gave her to you." A young woman was saying this, mahogany hair pulled back in a ponyta-tail. Her emerald eyes were filled with worry. But, why? A beautiful lure-ball dangled from a beautiful silver chain. Ripples engraved on the upper half of the it. It seemed to be important. A small girl, who looked about four, was standing in front of the woman, her aqua blue-green eyes widened. "Is it a pretty water Pokemon?" she asked. The woman simply chuckled. Misty wondered why. "Well, sort of. You see, this Pokemon thrives in water. Just remember, to never let her out unless you really need her." She watched the young girl nod. Her eyes widened, thinking to a picture she had seen earlier in the house. 'T-That's me! But, who's the woman?'

Snapping from the flashback, she stared at the ball even more. 'It's the same one from the flashback! Wonder what's inside..' Remembering the words of caution that the woman had given the child, she kept a firm hold on it. Her gaze turned to the daughter that was clutched in her arms, her eyes as well on the duo fighting. 'I hope they stop soon; they seem to know each other quite well. Wonder what happened?'

Both pairs of eyes were filled with rage. The large gem on Prita's forehead was glowing, as Sam was being hovered into the air. Bolts were firing from her cheeks, and as the bolts engulfed the feline, the purple aura surrounding the large dog dissapeared, and she landed safely on the ground. Amber wings flapping, she bolted toward the feline, crashing into his stomach. His eyes closed, grimacing, his back along the cave wall. But then, however, Sam turned toward Misty and Anya, panting. "R-Release her, Mist. Rel-Release her." Breathing heavily now, she continued to plead. Misty turned toward the ball in her hand, as it seemed to call to her. Sighing, she looked toward the large cat, as if it were to strike at any moment. "Um, okay. Go, LureBall!" The ball parted, and with a flash of ivory light;

came a large white dragon-like pokemon, finger-like wings spread wide.

A:N/ Okay, people who've read "Legends Don't Fly Free" will remember the flashback, so that's a treat for ya there. Knowing that this should attract peoples...TWO reviews are needed, each from different peoples..*grins* Special thanks to Espeon Morph for the last reviews..*bows* So, until next time!
