The Machoke was now doubly confused. He looked up at the attack from above as the bubble popped rather forcefully across his chest, making him wince in pain. It appeared that this pokemon was not too bright, for he had only just remembered he was supposed to be attack Sulteron when her Psychic attack took its tole. Even if she was part human, he was still weak against Psychic type attacks. The Machoke hunched over, moaning to itself as the Grunt continued to curse to himself. "Stupid Suicune. Should have stopped at the pokecenter, but then I would've lost the trail... Try Seismic Toss instead. And keep focused on the Espeon!" he demanded, his tone harsh. Apparently there was no bond of love between this man and his pokemon. The Machoke was just a tool, and not a very happy one at that. He bumbled forward to follow the command, but there was no sparkle in his eyes, no thrill for battle.

Sulteron wasn't a real Pokémon. She wasn't trained, she wasn't a fighter. She knew she could not do this, and that the Seismic Toss would be the end of her if she let it hit. She searched for any possible way to stop Machoke, but there didn't seem to be any. Then... she noticed something. Or rather, noticed something which wasn't there. All her Pokémon, even Mizoro, had a glint of happiness and love in their eyes, and had the thrill of battle. This Grunt seemed to not even be attempting to make a connection with his Pokémon, and Machoke didn't seem happy with his trainer.
As Machoke shuffled forwards to make his attack, Sulteron held out a mint green velvet paw. ~Wait!~ she cried in Pokétongue, easier to speak while she was an Espeon. ~Machoke, it's clear you're unhappy. The Grunt doesn't treat you like a friend, and it's obvious you don't like that. But it doesn't have to be like that. At any time, Machoke, you could leave this pig and start fresh, doing what you want to do. People don't have to tell you what to do. Only you can do that, Machoke. If you really want to attack me for protecting Suicune, then fine; go ahead. But if you wish to spare me and Suicune, then don't attack. You don't need to obey your trainer unless you want to.~ she instructed the Fighting type, hoping that he would understand. Perhaps it was more than just Suicune she could save today.

Sulteron's speech made the fighting type halt in his tracks a second time. He blinked at her, casting a quick glance at his trainer.
~You speak good words, little Pokemorph.~ He said. ~But I want my trainer's approval. I do not want to attack you, but maybe if I do, he will respect me and love me as you love your pokemon.~ He appeared to be wrestling with himself on the inside, his indecision clear on his face.
"Machoke, do it NOW!" the grunt screamed, panic creeping into his eyes. It was a good thing most humans didn't understand Poketongue. The Machoke studdied his trainer, and a glint finally crept into his eye.
~Here is what we do, little pokemorph. I will pretend to attack you, and create a diversion. Then you take your friends and escape. That way I wont get in trouble, and can still do the right thing.~ A small grin spread across his face, and he stepped forward, arms raised for an attack. He brought them down on either side of Sulteron and sent the force of the attack into the muddy ground instead of at the shiny espeon. Dirt and mud flew up into the air, clouding the sky with miniature brown bombs.
~Now run!~ The machoke commanded as the grunt bellowed and covered his head, trying to avoid the falling mess. ~He hates getting dirty.~

Sulteron nodded, darting swiftly over the rocks and motioned to her Pokémon, Teddiursa and Suicune to follow. She hoped Suicune would; she was the one in the most danger if she remained here. The Espeon girl was quickly flanked by Fairo and Mizoro, each holding an egg. Fairo had his tail warming the blue egg, while Mizoro had the jacket wrapped around the brown-silver egg clutched in his talons. They raced through the area, searching for a suitable place to take refuge until they were sure the Grunt and his Machoke had gone for good.
Sulteron, when she wasn't glancing back to make sure Teddiursa and Suicune were following, was searching the very open route for a good place to hide. At this rate, they would would be in Sage Town before they found shelter! But no. Ahead lay a tall tree, a willow, it's branches drooping to the ground. It was surrounded by long grass for a large radius, and bushes and other shrubs close to it. Looking about, this was the first of many like that. Knowing the Grunt was most likely to search the first one, she hid in the fourth tree, pointing it out to everyone before diving into the largest bush, brushing past the drooping branches which worked as a little wall from the treetop to the ground.
Sulteron changed back into her human form, panting and pulling strands of hair out of her eyes. She smiled. "Right, try not to make a sound or movement until the Grunt has gone. But first, I need you to answer one thing. Are you all right?" she asked in a whisper. ~I am, and so is an egg.~[/color] Mizoro was strangely silent. That made two out of six. ~Ditto.~[/color] whispered Fairo. Four. That just left Teddiursa and Suicune. Would they answer?[/size]

Sulteron paused long enough to scoop up Teddiursa before following Sulteron. She loped along with easy grace, obviously going slow in order to stay with the group... Suicune was one of the running legendaries after all. Teddiursa seemed to be enjoying herself, riding on the legendary's back and giggling.
When they reached the safe haven, Teddiursa slid to the ground and began to pleat fallen willow branches together, apparently oblivious to their danger. Suicune remained alert, one ear cocked the way they had come. ~We are fine.~ She replied to Sulteron's question, finally laying down in the grass, her body relaxed. ~He has gone. They did not follow.~ She sighed.
The shiny water-type leaned down to look Sulteron right in the eyes, her large head just inches from the girl's face. She peered at her for several moments, then shook her head, confused. ~I do not understand. Why did you help me? Why did you not try to capture me like that other human did?~

ooc// How long to eggs take to hatch? I've had mine for two and a half weeks 
ic// Sulteron was relieved when she saw that both Suicune and Teddiursa were present and safe. Fairo rested around her neck and shoulders again, Mizoro perching on her lap before she stood up with the revalation that the Grunt was gone. The eggs were in her arms. Fairo grinned at the two wild Pokémon, Mizoro fluttering up to find new ground on a low hanging twig. The thin wood was pulled down with her weight, but held.
Sulteron shivered as Suicune's face was merely a few inches away from her face. If she'd had the indecency to do so, she would have been able to touch the wolf's flank. Of course, Sulteron had more respect than that. She soon shook off the indimidating impressiong Suicune had, reminding herself that she was like any other Pokémon, just a little more aquainted with ice and water. She took several deep breaths, before shrugging at the question.
"Well, why not help you? You might be a Suicune, but you still have thoughts, feelings, dreams, and so on, just like a person. If I were you at that moment, I'd have wanted saving. It's just... the right thing to do sometimes, I guess. I wouldn't capture you because you might not have wanted to. Just like I wouldn't have caught young Mizoro if her mother hadn't said I could. I don't capture things as I please because that wouldn't be fair on the Pokémon. Pokémon are people, just in a different body." she nodded. Fairo blinked. Sulteron sure could talk if she needed to. And rather calmly, too, considering this was a legendary. He watched Suicune carefully for reactions.

OOC: Actually, I was just thinking about that last night. They should hatch sometime in this thread. Do you want to RP them hatching, or should I?
Suicune still seemed puzzled, but her eyes turned liquid with appreciation and... honor? She was impressed by Sulteron, even if the proud pokemon wouldn't say it out loud. This spunky little girl had class, and Suicune did owe her for the rescue.
The water dog hung her headd, looking a bit bashful as she said ~I know pokemon trainers often travel around the region, looking for pokemond. My home is far away, in the Toxic Swamp. It is a long journey and I am... lonely. Would you mind if I traveled with you? We could protect each other, and I would battle for you. After all, I should repay you for saving me.~ She peeked up at Sulteron, looking hopeful, her shiny hide sparkling. ~Unless of course you don't want to attract attention... I know I tend to do that. I could repay you some other way, if you would prefer.~
Meanwhile, Teddiursa was looking back the way they had come. ~I should probably go home soon. My mama will be worried. And if you take Suicune with you, our cave wont be fluided no more!~ The little green bear skipped about happily, pausing to vigorously shake each of her new friends hands before bouncing to the edge of the willow's screen of branches.

ooc// Since this thread's coming to an end, I'll hatch 'em now! Thanks so much!
ooc// Sulteron waved to Teddiursa as she skipped away to her home. It was great to see such cheery Pokémon. She was brave, too, and friendly. When she grew up, Sulteron knew that Teddiursa could be a great Pokémon some day. The Espeon 'morph then turned to Suicune. "You'd... actually travel with me for a bit? Woah, that's... that's amazing! I'm honoured! I'd be grateful to you for this, and I certainly accept! Wow, Fairo can you-" she accepted, then began babbling before she was cut off by the first loud crack. "What the? she wondered aloud, when Fairo, eyes wide, carefully tapped the blue egg.
A great shudder ran through the egg, and she saw the Charmander stare at a chuck of eggshell in his paw before gazing at the egg, face lighting up in delight. ~Riri? Ruuuui...~[/color] a soft squeal came from within the gooey depths, a little head poking out. A Riolu! Sulteron gently broke away the remainder of the eggshell, freeing the little Pokémon. The Riolu smiled at her, before Fairo took him in his arms. The newborn grinned, welcoming the Charmander as Fairo began to smooth down his fur and pick out the odd bit of eggshell.
"Wow! My egg hatched!" Sulteron beamed, gazing lovingly at her newest Pokémon. At the same time, she felt another crack and shudder. What? Her other egg was hatching, too? Sure enough, a huge crack had appeared down the centre of the egg. A faint grunt was coming from inside, as though the cub was stuck... Sulteron eased away the eggshell within the crack like a lid, revealing... a silver Eevee. A shiny! Getting people to come to Airore sure had paid off. A wonderful Riolu and Eevee... how perfect. She cradled the Eevee, and she gave a little burp. She giggled, the scratched her in between her ears. "I think I'll call you Kai." she smiled. Fairo grinned. ~And Riolu's name is Mila!~[/color] he insisted. Well, what a great day this had been, no?[/size]

Sulteron grinned, stroking Kai gently while Fairo held Mila. It appeared that he rather liked the young Riolu. Mizoro laughed as he swooped over to her shoulder, and Suicune moved to her side. She still couldn't believe that such a magnificent creature was on her team, however tempory. And so, with her three new teammates, she set off into the distance and to Sage Town.
