Hello there everyone! I can see that you chose this book out of all the ones around you… why? Did this catch your eye? Did it call to you? Well, I guess you can borrow it for a read then but I must warn you… those who have read this book have never felt quite the same. Who am I? Just a humble Bookwriter my friend, and maybe something a little more. Read it if you do wish, but if you ever see this character watching you, then I suggest you mind your manners.

Prologue (:3)

"Thank Arceus! It took forever to get up here!" I vaguely listened to my trainer as he yelled out into the mountains surrounding us. "First order of business. Flametail you take Shyly, and Passione out to get firewood. Maybe this time we won't burn down most of the countryside?"

The thundering steps walking by told me enough to allow me to keep staring out at the 'great' outdoors surrounding the start of our quant little camp. We were out here for our trainer... no other reason. He was out here for adventure, as well as a chance to find a legendary pokemon by the name of Celebi.

"Ua..." Somebody tapping my shoulder caused me to turn around. "I'd like for you to meet Shadowhunter's child, Quicksilver."

I probably would've rolled my eyes if I could've to the Sylveon in front of me. My gaze shifted to the small ball of grey fur shaking at her feet.

"Nightbright... I told you I don't have anything to do with children." I replied simply

"More like you don't want to have anything to do with children." The reply was short with a sharp underlying tone. "Be kind UA..."

"Unless this is my child I see no reason why I should... that is how it works in this world... correct?"

A stinging lash to my cheek caused my head to swivel away. I glanced back at Nightbright, her face held a smoldering anger, something that told me not to do or say anything rash.

"This child is my sister's daughter... a sister who believed in you." If I hadn't been already at full alert I doubt I would've sensed build up in aggressive energy, was she charging a Moonblast? "You will say hello to her child, then you will get to know her!"

"Nightbright could you help me over here?" Our trainer called. "I've got the makeshift nursery built up."

"Be nice UA. If you don't I swear you'll wish you had." With those words Nightbright put the furry ball in front of me before leaving,

I raised an eyebrow at the Sylveon as she retreated out of sight. If you had asked kindly I possibly would've done it the first time you had asked... I lowered my head to meet the newborn pokemon's face.

"Hello there young one..." I strained to see the newborn's eyes "My name is UA."

"H-hello UA, my name's Quicksilver." The newborn Eevee refused to meet my eyes "I heard a lot about you from the others... is it true that my mother and you-"

"Listening to gossip and believing it show the signs of a gullible being."

"Oh... but is it true you knew my mother?"

I didn't reply. Should I tell her? Even someone like me should know the right thing to do...

"Yes I did..." I nodded "She had good character, she was someone I wish I knew even better for it."

"Really?!" The red and blue eyes that stared back showed hope, here it comes... "Could you maybe tell me about these adventures you had?"

Whoever told you about these things will burn... I inhaled, what did everyone expect of me? I'm incapable of helping with children.

"Why do you want to know so badly?" I was slowly putting pieces of some grand puzzle together in my mind. The reasoning behind everyone wanting me to talk to this Eevee...

"I want to know more..." The hope was slowly fading, replaced by a dull grayness I knew all to well. "Everyone says you are the best person to-"

I interrupted again, this time I began nosing the Eevee. I began by inhaling in her scent, then I checked her eyes again. I ended the observations by observing her figure and fur.

"W-w-what are you doing?!" Quicksilver tried to wiggle out of my grasp.

"I'll tell you my story..." I let go of my hold on the young Eevee "Pay attention. I will not repeat myself twice."

Ch.1 Aura

"Where'd ya go snack?" a rasping voice bellowed as I ran through a forest "I'm starving and ya better not be running or when I get my claws on you... well you better hope I don't!" I could hear the cackle getting closer, but I ignored it and kept running.

My heart was beating so loud I could practically hear it thumping in my ears, but it wasn't fear that made it so loud... it was because I was exerting myself trying to escape. I looked behind me and saw a sandy red shape shoot through the undergrowth, outpacing me and gaining fast. 'So it's actually fast...' I thought, my attitude making it sound like I didn't give a care in the world. I kept running though, an overwhelming calmness stretched inside of me.

I burst through the leafery into a clearing with an oran berry tree, at the same time as my unknown assailant. I stood panting, watching as a female Krookidile stared at me... licking it's maw.

Naughty, naughty." It tutted mockingly "Now look where at this running got ya, in all honesty was it really worth it?"

I ran through my list of moves and saw that my chances of beating her were almost zilch. She could pull a move that would be neutrally effective while mine would deal almost no damage. 'I could use...' a part of me reasoned 'No! I can't ever use that move again!' another part of me objected, remembering the last time I used it.

The Krookidile charged me using a move that looked like Mach punch. I immediately countered using Night Daze to make her visibility of me hazy. The strategy worked quite well, the Krookidile's punch missed by inches. As I had jumped to avoid it, the punch almost hit me in the face, barely brushing past my face fur. I landed on the ground, trying to find a move that I knew to end this battle (besides... the forbidden one), but I didn't know any moves to help all that much. The Krookidile though figured out how to end it real quickly, using Earthquake. The resulting shock-wave knocked me down.

"Schist!" I tried to get up, but when I looked down I saw that a crack had snaked it's way from the origin of the Earthquake and to my foot, thus making me unable to move.

The Krookidile made her way over to me, not even bothering to disguise her enjoyment at finally winning the hunt. I felt my own heart and sighed as it was (of course) still beating normally as it ever could. My mind was different, trying to calculate a way out 'what could I do? How can I get out alive? This may be the last chance I have to use that move...'

My thoughts were interrupted though as the claws of the Krookidile closed around me. I didn't fight, thinking that maybe I could lull her into a false sense of security. I was hanging by my tail as the Krookidile started to tow me away.

"Let's get you home for lunch." The Krookidile hummed as she walked

I slowly pondered my life decisions in silence as I was carried away, but the Krookidile paused as she passed by the oran berry tree. 'Is she?' I glanced up (or down... because I was hanging by my tail) hoping she wasn't thinking on eating me with an oranberry as a dessert. The Krookidile stood thinking a few moments before reaching for a berry. As her claws closed around the berry though, a blast of pure energy sent her (and by extension, me...) flying. I landed hard on my stomache, while the Krookidile slammed face-first a few feet near me.

"What do we have here?" a silky smooth voice said with contempt.

I strained my vision to the edge of the clearing to see a blue ball glowing with energy. My fur suddenly gave off a sparkling glow, confirming to me that whoever had attacked the Krookidile (and saved me), belonged to a trainer.

"A shiny eh?" the unknown newcomer could have possibly been smiling "My master would definitely like to see you."

'Yeah, no' I turned and started to run but the Krookidile's claws lashed out and grabbed my right back leg. I dangled in mid air as the now pissed off Krookidile slowly got back up.

"This is none of your business!" Krookidile hissed "Get out of here before I make you the main course!"

The unknown pokemon laughed, but said "My master will want him, so maybe you could just put him down and walk away before I mess you up."

"Stop hiding in the shadows like a coward and face me then." Krookidile challenged "Unless you're scared that is."

The only response was another blue ball of energy slamming into Krookidile's gut. I could feel the claws around my back leg release and I fell to the floor. 'The tree' I scrambled for it 'It'll be harder to reach me there.'

Before I could reach it though, I heard the sound of another ball of energy tear it's way towards me. 'How about no' I slashed through the ball of energy with some sort of sword. 'Where the heck did I get this?' I watched the shadows reach out and take the sword from me before I could get a better look at it. I examined my paws and saw they were now hands. The hands slowly faded back to paws as I watched (I'll admit that this was a scary moment). I turned my head back towards where the attack had come from in the first place. The pokemon who had saved me was none other than... a female Lucario, with a red bandana wrapped around her neck. She glanced over me, criticizing my strength and size.

"You better not run" she said in her silky smooth voice "or when I catch you, I'll throttle you."

I immediately ran up to the oranberry tree and climbed it. 'This is what you wanted right?' If I could've felt happiness then maybe I would've smiled, but instead I gave her a blank look. The Lucario gave me one good look of annoyance, before the Krookidile slammed her to the ground.

"I'm really tired of dealing with annoying pokemon like you and that morsel up there!" Krookidile screeched as she pummeled the Lucario to the ground with every word she spoke.

The Lucario didn't seem fazed by it all, instead broke free of Krookidile's grasp and elegantly uppercutted Krookidile in the face. Krookidile fell back and landed on the cold, hard, unforgiving ground. The Lucario seemed full of energy as she turned towards me and said impatiently "Am I going to have to knock you out of the tree, or are you going to come down here?"

I analyzed my choices. 'I don't wanna get caught... but the typing isn't in my favor' I cursed my luck 'Maybe I can escape later... then again I doubt it', looking back down I nodded my head. I made my way back down and stood in front of the Lucario. The Lucario actually, before picking me up.

"So you're actually going to act smart." She laughed, feeling my fur "Wow it's so soft!"

I glanced at the bandanna around her neck and saw the word 'Red' on it. 'Is that a name?' I wondered to myself before a quick punch to the face knocked me out.
