Well this is already an improvement over last time, I'm warm at least. Now if only this annoying limbo thing would stop happening and just let me wake up. I need to find a way back home as soon as possible, Big Brother Espeon is probably crying. He loved me the most out of everyone, I hope he's not taking this too hard.

Oh hey, another noise I barely heard, wonder what this human is going to say this time?

"She's nothing I've ever seen before. She's neither canine nor vulpine but rather some strange mixture of the two."

Vulpine? Canine? What's going on here? More importantly, who is this second voice? It's much higher and softer than my human's.

Dear Arceus I'm already thinking of him as "my" human.

"Oh." That's my hu- savior! My savior! "So you have no idea if she's allergic to Neosporin?"

"Allergic? We would have to run tests for that. I think you mean if it's toxic for her species. Unfortunately, I have no earthly clue if it is or isn't. All I can recommend is for you to keep her away from chocolate, garlic, avocadoes, grapes, raisins, and onions. Among other things of course."

What in the name of sweet Lady Mew is garlic? And why shouldn't I get near it?

"Do you have a webs- she moved!" my human really isn't that bright. Why would anyone keep webs? And why is something scratching me behind my ears?

Finally able to open my eyes I see a very strange place. Firstly, I have no idea what I'm lying on. It's warm like fur, but it's huge. Huge and purple and smooth. I have never heard of a purple Pokémon with smooth fur. I'm also on top of some strange thing I can only assume is a bed, it's too soft to be anything else. It's just weird, it's a rectangle not a nice pile of leaves.

The room itself is one huge square. The walls are some unnatural white color with a smaller white rectangle in one of the walls. He has to have some sort of Pokémon trapped in the ceiling making light for him. It doesn't look like one, I don't know what else it could be. Other than the walls, the light, and this bed there really isn't much in here. Oh yeah, there are the humans standing behind me, scratching my ears.

Grunting in pain as I roll over, I can see that the male human, John, has some fuzz on his flat face that wasn't there last night. He changed his coverings to some shorter blue ones. He's also really tall, at least compared to the other human next to him.

She is a whole head and a half shorter than he is, wearing a white top, I can't see her legs. The fur on her head is an orange-ish red and she doesn't have any fuzz on her face. She has brown eyes that aren't nearly as beautiful as my little brother's.

Before I can do anything else, she smiles and says "Good afternoon, I hope you slept well. John here did a pretty good job patching you up. Most of your wounds were superficial, but you might have lost a lot of blood so just try and take it easy, OK?"

Well, we have ourselves a talker. Big Sister Umbreon gets like this whenever I get a bruise or, Arceus forbid, a small cut from playing with my friends. Too bad I can't reassure this one or run away from her.

"Hey Eevee," John began "Do you feel up to talking? It's kinda important we find out how you got here."

"Please John." The female scoffed as she turned to look at him. "Animas can't talk. Some of them can speak, yes, but they can't talk. I talk to them simply because it helps me focus on my job. You really should drop this subject, you were probably just in shock and thought she was talking to you."

Oh this is going to be fun.

"I wasn't delusional, I swear." John groaned, putting one of his hands over his face. "With all due respect Doctor Gayle, you yourself said you don't know what she is. For all you know she can-"

"Hi!" I sang out. "My name's Eevee, it's not nice to meet you at all Doctor Gayle! Why don't you just let me go home?"

HA! The look on her face is priceless! I swear her eyes are going to leave their sockets and her jaw is going to fall off! It's almost like she ready to catch it too, she has one hand right in front of her face!

John, however, was grinning like an idiot and had a twinkle in his eye. "Believe me now, Doctor?" he asked.

Doctor Gayle quickly regained her composure though, (damn it) and slowly said "We only got two syllables out of her. I don't think-"

"Don't think!" I interrupted with a smile. "Your puny little human brain might explode!"

Doctor Gayle stopped and looked at me through squinted eyes, looking me up and down. THAT was unnerving. It makes me feel like a tasty berry.

"Ok, let's see if you really can talk or if you are just making sounds. 'Ee' for yes and 'Eevee' for no, alright?"

Huh, guess she's not as dumb as I first though. Might as well give this a shot. "Ee!"

"Let's hope that was actually supposed to be a 'yes' and move on. Is your name Eevee like John thinks?"

"Ee!" This is actually really humiliating. At least John is smirking at her.

"Is my name 'Merle?'"

Easy. "Eevee!" I swear by Lugia if she draws this thing out...

"Are you a dog?"

No idea what a dog is so, "Eevee!"

"Last one." Praise Suicune, she's not dragging this out. "Do you know how you got here?"

"Eevee!" John is actively fighting back laughter now, I can see him shaking.

"Well," Doctor Gayle sighed. "I can't say she is capable of talking, but she is certainly intelligent. Either that or extremely lucky." Turning to look John in the eye she continued, "I have an old friend, we served in the Air Force together. If anyone can find out anything about her, it's him. I'll email you as soon as I have more information."

And with that she turned towards the wall with the smaller rectangle in it, strode forward with more purpose than Papa Vaporeon when he was battling, opened the small rectangle and walked through it, slamming it shut behind her.

"Don't worry," John chuckled. "She's like that whenever there's something she doesn't know. Fortunately for us, she hasn't lied to me yet." Turning to look at me he smiled and gently patted my head. "Don't you worry, we'll get you home soon. If you have a home you want to go back to that is. We have enough evidence to keep you away from your owners if they abused you."

So I don't belong to this human then? Why would he be helping me if I don't belong to him? Could he actually be...nice? But Mama said humans are evil. He'll probably keep me for himself once he finds out I don't have a trainer.

"I'll go bring you something to eat. Do you like fruit?"

"Ee!" This is still humiliating, but at least my human is actually trying to talk with me...damn it, he's not "my" human!

"Awesome! I'll go get some apples then. I will be right back."

And with that, he walked through the small rectangle and was gone.
