Flasire the Torchic's Story

As Flasire looked around, he wondered to himself, how would he survive?
He wasn't ready to be on his own. But he had no choice.

He was unique. He had a slit in his skin that was like a pocket. He could use it to store stuff! Food for example.

He just saw a Jigglypuff get flattened!

He wanted to group up with other pokemon, he will.

He will.

Pitch visibly cringed as he heard the sound of squealing tires followed by a massive THUMP! Quickly peering over the stand he stood behind, the Eevee surveyed the area fearing that one of his companions had been run over. Zap was the first one he spotted, carrying a large T-shirt filled to the brim with cupcakes. Glow wasn't too far from him, a large bundle of similar T-shirts on her back. He looked right next to see Fluff looking out the broken window towards them. He would think for a split second that she had caused the noise, but then would realize that an Altaria couldn't make squealing rubber sounds.

Aurora was also fine, carrying a broken umbrella filled with his own goodies. Mud was right by him. So then...who got hit?

Another look around gave Pitch the answer. He spotted a Jigglypuff, flattened on the side of the road, eyes closed. The truck had come to a stop in the middle of the road, the driver and two passengers getting out to survey what they had done. Pitch bounded in between the Jigglypuff and the owners of the vehicle, teeth bared. The driver threw his hands up in the air in surrender and told the two girls to get back in the car. They obeyed and he followed suit. Pitch watched as the truck tore away from them, rounding the corner and disappearing from sight.

Now that they were alone and away form human contact, Pitch looked at the Jigglypuff concerned. He felt for a pulse and found one, though it was faint. Thinking quickly and deciding that it was worth it, the Eevee reached into his pack and pulled out the one revive he had. He'd kept it for so long and only used it for emergencies. Had this Jigglypuff been hit by that truck a week ago, Pitch would've left it to natural selection and walked by. But his newer companions had given him a heart...a strong and powerful one. They gave him something to fight for and taught him the importance of vitality. And he wasn't going to stop anyone from living that way.

"Come on, buddy. Get up," Pitch held the revive over the knocked out Jigglypuff, watching the crystal dissolve in front of his eyes as it absorbed into him. In a moment, the Jigglypuff would open its large, sparkly eyes. It definitely wouldn't feel in tip top shape, but it would absolutely feel better. And most importantly, it would be alive.

Glow heard the squeal of wheels, a sickening thud, and then dead silence. Hopefully not DEAD dead. She grabbed her bag which she had filled with soft materials, and some medical supplies. She scrambled over the others right behind her. Fluff was already to far into the Wal-Mart to hear what happened.

Zap scrambled over, lugging his t-shirt filled with cupcakes. "WHAT was that!?" He yelled. Who was hurt?

Aurora ran over towards Pitch. "What happened?"
Mud ran after the others, slightly slower. By the time they had gathered, Mud had to squeeze in between Glow and Zap.

Fluff trotted around the shop, cheerfully stuffing her makeshift bag.
