Shadows In The Night

Chapter 1: Fang

I was having fun with my brother at night like we always do. I'd always try to pin him but he always got me down first. We had a lot of fun together. Even our mom and dad said that it looked adorable. We always played until we tired ourselves out and fell asleep. But tonight was different. I couldn't get to sleep. My brother lied down next to me. I could tell he was trying to make me happier.

"Fang whats wrong?" my brother asked gently.

"I just can't sleep" I moaned.

"would you be able to sleep if I was near you?" he asked.

"maybe.. a little..." I muttered. My brother curled up next to me and smiled.

"thanks Shadow." I said before I fell asleep.


The next morning, I woke up. My brother was still sleeping like he always does. I knew a couple of pokemon species. Enough to know that me and my brother were both Poochyena and our parents were Mightyena. I looked over at my mom and dad and they were still asleep. I walked away from the area and curiosly wandered into the field of tall grass that towered over my head. I looked around and lost my way. I knew I was lost. I wimpered and walked around slowly until I tripped on a rock and landed on the ground with a thud. I closed my eyes and whined. I wanted my mommy. I felt something paw my ear and opened my eyes to see a weird blue and black colored kitten about my age. I tried to smile but couldn't because I missed my brother.

"Hiya!" he said.

"hi..." I replied.

"Why are you sad?" he asked curiously.

"I don't want to tell you" I replied bluntly.

"well fine! I saw another pokemon that looked like you and he said he was looking for his brother." he said.

"REALLY? Where?" I asked quickly.

"uhhhh..." The cat looked around but it looked lost.

"great..." I said

"I'm Sparks!" he said

"ok Sparks." I said

"name?" Sparks asked.

"oh yeah.. my name's Fang." I said with a slight tone of annoyence.

"Okie dokie Fang!" Sparks said.

"what?" I replied.

"wanna come to my family?" Sparks said.

"where is it?" I asked.

"I know! uh... ok I don't know..." Sparks said.

"so you're just as lost as me?" I asked.

"I guess." Sparks said.

"do you know what pokemon you are Sparks?" I asked.

"I'm a Shinx" he said smiling.

"do you think we should try to find our way out?" I asked.

"yes!" he said.

We walked around for what seemed like a couple hours. We finaly got out of the field and I saw a shadowy figure race by us. I didn't mention it to Sparks.
