Alex and Arkanon spend the next couple weeks caring for their pups. Alex’s body begins reverting to normal, her eyes and ears getting more humanoid, but still retaining some of the Arkanine traits, such as three stripes on the back of each ear, and the molten coloring of her eyes. Alex also notices that while her tail seems shorter, it refuses to fall off or completely vanish as she’d hoped. Alex and Arkanon are faced with a problem however, when it comes to giving their pups their vaccinations. The closest Pokémon center is the one where they took Jeovi, and since the Chansey’s eerie warning, Alex refuses to take her babies to that place. Saki offers to drive Alex to the next town, having taken the driving course during the second month of Alex’s pregnancy when she figured it might be wise to have a license in case of emergencies. Saki used her trainer’s fund to buy a small car. Alex agrees and gathering her pups and her mate into the car and Saki takes them and Jeovi with her to the next town, entering the Pokémon center with a group of three snarling pups and a tired looking fox. The Nurse Joy in charge smiles adoringly at the pups before motioning to a Chansey to take them off to the vaccination machine. Alex tails the Chansey, not letting her pups out of sight as Arkanon can be heard growling from his ball.
The Nurse Joy turns to Saki, seeming like she wants to speak, but only opening and closing her mouth a few times before deciding now is not the time. Saki turns to the older woman, smiling at her as she calls to her assistant. Nurse Joy talks to her assistant for a few minutes, the young girl smiling at her; a three-legged Mightyena at her side, and takes a set of Pokéballs from her. As Nurse Joy turns to Saki, she hands over the balls.
“I’ve noticed the little pups you brought in aren’t captured yet. I would suggest catching them so when and if they venture out on their own; other trainers don’t try to steal them from you. My assistant tells me they’ve all had their shots and your sister is eager to get them home. Please take care; I hope to see you again soon.” Nurse Joy comments as she bows, watching as Alex returns from the back room, her pups walking next to her and yipping softly, escorted by a Chansey.
Saki smiles at her sister and the pups, handing he girl the three Pokéballs and relaying Nurse Joy’s message to them. Alex sighs, releasing Arkanon from his ball and having her mate watch as his offspring are captured and registered as her Pokémon. The Legendary Pokémon smiles with pride as his pups become members of his mate’s team. As they go to exit the Center, a Growlithe walks up to them and speaks to Arkanon.
“So, that girl is your mate then, and those three were your pups?” He asks, earning a nod from the larger male. The little Growlithe seems to think something over before nodding to Arkanon, watching as they leave. Alex looks down at the little pup, walking away without making any sign that she’s understood any part of the conversation.
The next few weeks pass by without any trouble obvious to the new family. Jeovi however, is plagued by recurring nightmares of Nameless tormenting her and her pups before reliving their deaths. During the day she seems lethargic, due in part to the fact that she’s become an insomniac from fear of the nightmares. Saki notices when the Ninetales becomes jumpy at the slightest sounds and screams when the door slams shut.
“Jeovi, honey, what’s wrong with you?” Saki asks, having taken advantage of the money from her last few trainer battles to buy the fox a translating collar. As Jeovi looks up at the elder sister, she sighs deeply.
“I’ve been having nightmares, when I sleep, my pups are alive again, but then that demonic hybrid comes and I watch their blood paint the ground in front of me. I don’t like sleeping anymore because he’s waiting for me. One of these days he’ll come back to finish me off, I just know it.” Jeovi whimpers softly, her eyes pouring tears of fear. Saki crouches down and holds the crying fox, whispering soothingly to her as she collapses again from exhaustion. Saki recalls her into her Pokéball and sets it on the dresser, hoping that at least in stasis mode she won’t dream and just rest. As Saki turns a corner, she’s met with the sight of her sister and Arkanon preparing for an outing. Their litter is contained in Pokéballs still in their room.
“Alex, I know you’re my sister, and your pups are hybrids, and look like Pokémon, but I still must protest your parenting method of simply recalling your kids into Pokéballs instead of old fashioned babysitting. It’s just wrong.” Saki comments, smirking at her little sister as Alex looks up at her with innocent doe eyes.
“But they cry all the time, and I am sick of changing the sheets because a certain shiny brat can’t stop shooting flames onto the bed. Until Conleth can control his fire breath I think it would be best to keep him in his ball. Besides, Cerberus and Layla will likely miss their brother.” Alex comments, still bearing a burn on her arm from surprising her “golden boy” while he was sleeping. Arkanon smiles at his mate, looking shamed when Saki glares coldly at the large fire type male.
“Another thing I’d love to protest is your naming skills. Seriously, naming your son Cerberus.” Saki complains before dodging to the side as Alex shoots a flame at her. Saki watches as Alex and Arkanon venture out into the night.
A/N : Sorry it's been so long since I updated last, but school is winding down and it seems that life has decided to stop screwing me.This chapter is short, since I'm doing another time jump. I'm also beginning another story, and trying to finish one of my older stories I began before I changed my author name.
A/N: Also, to those of you who read In Darkness There is Light, yes, they did go to the Pokemon Center there.
