Clinging Onto a Hope of Happiness (Chapter Four)
#5 of Clinging Onto a Hope of Happiness
The swift had to be altered in some way, because swift is an undodgable attack... In the original he said that Kyler backflipped over it and dodged it... Well, I'm going to shed some light on that one. We can't let them have all the fun, can we? This is a mix of chapter four and five of the original, there just wasn't enough to put into it with just chapter four's text. OH YEAH, she gets seen, but its not enough to make the whole plot of the story change. All i did here was abuse the time that he skipped in the original.

When Fara arrived she saw the three other eeveelutions fighting against a group of ursaring. She felt that she should join in the fight, or, at least help. She alterred attacks from those foul ursaring, made them slow, knocked them off course with her psychic attack. One swift was pretty close to hitting Kyler, but she altered it just in time and he dodged it.
His ear twitched at her direction, so he must have known that she did it. He knew that he wouldn't have been able to dodge that attack, it doesn't miss without any sort of altercation. And these Ursaring certainly wouldn't let up the attack, so... He turned his head to see the Espeon firing its psychic attacks and altering its moves. She didn't care at this moment that he saw her. She just continued firing those attacks like there was no tomorrow for her. As soon as all of those foul Ursarings were dead, Fara turned and fled.
"Hey, wait!" A call from behind. She ignored it and kept running. She stopped after she realized they weren't following her. She turned around and went back to see what had happened with them. She could see pawprints heading back to route 203. She didn't want to go, but... she forced herself to.
When Kyler dove into the water, she hid herself, knowing that conversation was about to begin. The other two then jumped in. Fara moved closer so she could hear. "Wow that was refreshing."
"Yeah, it was."
"I personally want to thank you for saving me," Tiri said to Rick as they walked off together.
Kyler resurfaced to see them walking off. They shouted back.
"We're going to go and rest for a bit!"
Kyler looks back and Fara was glad that she had moved, because he would have seen her again otherwise. He was thinking hard about something. Was he thinking about her, or Evy, the crush he had a long time ago? She heard something...
~thud~
Something that didn't seem right...
~thud~
Petal was here now, but that wasn't it...
~Thud~
It's close!
~THUD~
"HOLY SHIT!"
A tree started to fall over, and Petal, by instinct, reacted quickly by firing razor leaf at the trunk, which sliced it in pieces. Harmless pieces floated around now. Kyler looked back and saw Petal, who paniced and ran away. Fara decided to follow Petal, but kept herself hidden. She used her telepathy to talk to Petal.
"That sure was stupid of you."
"Shut up."
"Nope. Now what are we going to do. He SAW us."
"I know that, but what could I have done? Let him die there? I won't do that."
"Oh so you love him, do you?"
"No I only need him to--"
"Get rid of the itch? Nah... you like him too much."
"I SAID SHUT UP!!" Petal yelled.
"You can't make me, Petal," she was teasing now, "I'm you."
"Well I'm telling MYSELF to SHUT UP!"
"I'm not going away, but i will watch. It's always so exciting to see what we're going to do."
"Why must everything be so difficult?" Petal sighed and closed her eyes.
"That's because you're following him," Fara said aloud. "If you weren't following him, things wouldn't be so hard. For either of us."
