>Emma's pov<

I opened my eyes and looked around. Night seemed to be the only one awake and was watching me out of the corner of her eye but looked away when she saw I was awake.

Red had his head resting on top of mine and was snoring ever so softly. He held me close to him, tightly yet still gentle. I closed my eyes and snuggled into his chest and smiled a little. I felt completely safe in his arms as if nothing could ever touch me again.

Blade woke up shortly after I did and Red soon after that. He lifted his head from on top of mine and loosened his grip.

"Did you sleep well?" He smiled.

I nodded and blushed a little when I remembered that I'd slept on his chest. "Sorry if I annoyed you last night." I said embarrassed, trying to support myself on my own but failed epically when pain shot trough my arms.

Blade stood up, crouching a little since he was a little to tall to stand straight in the Poke-tent. He walked over to my side, watching out for Charzard's tail.

~Are you alright?~ He asked worriedly.

I nodded. "Just a little sore." I lied.

Blade looked as if he had sent fallen for it. ~Are you sure?~ He asked giving me one if those I-know-you're-lying-give-it-up looks.

I sighed a shook my head. Blade was one of the few people/Pokemon who could tell when I lied. Not that I did it to my Pokemon very often. I'd always had a thing for trusting Pokemon to people. Always have and probably always will.

Blade frowned and sighed.

Charzard poked his head in through the top of the tent.

~Mornin'~ he smiled. ~You should see it out here. It's completely white.~

"Okay, Charizard." Red said. "Can you let us out please."

Charzard nodded and slowly opened his wings, patches of snow falling down off his wings in the process. The icy cold wind hit me in like blast causing me to shiver and snuggle closer to Red. I whimpered as the cold seemed to make my cut burn, which doesn't make a lot of sense but then a lot of things don't.

Red wrapped me tighter in his sleeping bag. "You need to keep warm to get better." He said.

"I can take care of myself ya know." I told him, with a small playing smirk.

"Nah, I'm gonna take care of you." He smirked.

I sighed. "Whatever. We should get back before Silver sends a search party and over reacts as usual."

Red nodded and stood up. He returned his Charizard before looking back at me, now snuggling into Blade's arms to keep warm... What? It was cold... Scratch that, freezing.

Blade picked me up, sleeping bag and all. Night stood up and shook her fur, it was strange that she hadn't spoken all morning. Maybe something was on her mind. Well whatever it was it was keeping her out of my hair which was good.

Red held onto Blade's arm and placed his other hand on Night's back before Blade teleported us away.

When we got back into the clearing Silver was pacing back and forth and looked up at us when we got there.

The snow around the fire was melted leaving dry grass around most of the clearing. As expected he bombarded me with questions, half of which I ignored leaving it up to Red to answer how we kept warm last night in the snow.

Blade sat me down in front if the fire and I snuggled deeper into the sleeping bag.

Silver sat by my side and I snuggled close to him.

Am I seriously the only one who feels like an ice brick?

I looked over at Sora who was snuggled in Rafe's arms with both of their sleeping-bags wrapped around her.

Maybe not.

"You sure you're alright?" Silver asked.

I nodded. "I seriously don't know why you worry so much."

Silver frowned. "Because it seems that whenever I leave you alone you end up hurt or in some kind of danger."

I sighed and rested my head on my brothers shoulder. "There's not really anything I, or anyone, can do to change that." I said quietly.

"I know. But I want to try and keep you safe where I can." He said quietly.

"Silv, I've been taking care of myself for years. You don't need to worry about me all the time."

"See? You let Emma call you 'Silv'. Why can't I?" Destiny but in.

Silver sighed. "I already told you, Emma's my sister and you're just her annoying friend. There's a difference in who I let give me nicknames."

I gave Silver an confused look.

"Destiny and I had an argument last night when I told her not to call me 'Silv' and she said that I let you and so on." Silver explained.

"Speaking of which, what happened last night after I left?" I asked.

Silver shrugged. "Nothing much, the police found our camp, as expected, and told us to keep an eye out for a 'dangerous suspect'. We told them we'd never seen you before then they left... right around then it's started to snow... How did you keep warm last night? the police said they were looking for fires of campers and if you lit a fire than they would have found you."

"Red took care of that. He had his Charizard make a tent thingy to keep us warm and Charizard used his tail flame to keep us warm." I explained then stifled a yawn.

"You still tired?" Silver asked.

I nodded and sighed.

Destiny came over and handed me a purple and pink sleeping-bag bag. "We picked this up for you last night so you can give Red back his."

I accepted the bag but didn't move from Silver's side.

"Silver?" I said my voice was hush so only Silver could hear.

"Yeah?" He replied just as quiet.

"What happens next?"

"What do you mean?"

I turned to look at him. "I mean... I'm getting better, although I'm not completely better yet. But when I am what do I... we... do next?"

He thought about my question. "Well, we did manage to get the Light stone from Lanora."

"What?"

"While we were waiting for you we got the Light stone... Before we came here." Silver explained.

"Why didn't you say anything?" I asked annoyed.

Silver shrugged. "You weren't exactly in the best condition to be worrying about that stuff."

I sighed in annoyance.

But then it hit me, I didn't feel anything tight now. No fierce tugging, no cold, wordless song.

Did that mean that the Light stone was the one containing the dragon I was meant to fight with?

.*.*.*.

>??? Pov<

I strolled casually down the route with me Servine by my side.

"Should we set up camp now Servine?" I asked him since it was getting late.

~Vine.~ He said and pointed ahead.

I looked at where he was pointing and saw a small purple Pokemon lying on the path.

I ran up to it. It looked hurt so I picked it up. I'd never seen this type of Pokemon before. It clearly wasn't from Unova.

~MISS! MAGIUS!~ It screeched and a black haired man walked onto the path.

"Hello." He said and the Pokemon in my hands flew to his side looking completely healed. "I believe you have something that belongs to me."

I took a step back, Servine stepped in front of me. "I don't have anything." I told him.

~SERVINE!~ my Pokemon shouted.

~MAGIUS!~ His Pokemon shouted back.

"Hand over the Dark stone or else." He said darkly.

The dark stone?

"No. It's mine." I said.

"And why is that?" He said. "What gives you possession of a Pokemon in its stone state?"

"P-pokemon?"

"I've had enough of this. Darkrai, dark void." He said and threw a Pokéball into the air.

I saw a flash of black before I was hit with a black orb and before I knew it, I was trapped in a nightmare.
