the pain of loss?

Draco petted zoe "could be worse i guess!"

Tala shook her head "Wanna come with to save the kite?" she offered.

Draco nodded "might as well!"

Zoe gave a cheer hopping onto Draco's shoulder. Tala took Blitz in her arms and Instinct walked with Stipes and Ty. Tala then led the way outside where Zoe hopped off Draco's shoulder showing the way to a big tree where a colourful diamond shapped Kite was stuck in the branches and the string was tangled. "How did you manage THAT?!" Tala asked. Zoe shrugged. With a sigh Tala put Blitz down and looked at the branches for a moment to see a good way to climb up.

Something whizzed by through the trees and took the kite. Ashley the jumped down from the tree with the kite "voila!" she said with a bright smile

Tala just blinked and then shook her head. "I'm not goanna ask..." "(Yay auntie Ash saved the kite Blitz!)" "Thanks Ash!"

Ashley handed Tala the kite "no probs!" she said giving draco a smile and a small salute.he waved back

"So who wants a shot to fly it?" Tala said with a grin. There was a faint highpitched sound that caught Tala's attention. Looking round she she seen Blitz who seemed to be trying to say something.

something began to shake in Ashley's bag

Tala looked to Ashley in question sitting next to Blitz.

Ashley took her egg out of her bag to see tht it was shaking

Tala picked up Zoe and Blitz who looked in wonder.

the egg hatched to reveal a smaller than average cyndaquil "cyyyyndaaa!"

Ty looked over to see the Cyndaquil slapping himself on the forehead as if to say 'another one?'. Stipes gave a chuckle and then a smile. Instinct shook her head as if to say 'Not another one to babysit!'. Zoe and Blitz looked amazed at how a oval hard object turned into a living pokemon and wondered if they were the same. Tala gave a grin "Aww looks like another fire type!" she giggled.

the baby-sized cyndaquil gave Tala a smile and hugged ashley "cyndaaa!(mamaaa!)" Ashley just giggled and hugged her cyndaquil back

"Daww! Like Zoe!" Tala giggled. "(Mama!)" Zoe cheered. "(M...)" Blitz began not very clearly, Tala turned to the little chick. "What is it Blitz? Are you trying to say something?" Tala asked. "(M...)" Blitz nodded. "(M...)" Blitztried to talk again but instead used Ember.

Draco gave a brief chuckle. Ashley's cyndaquil jumped down and walked to zoe "cyynda!(hiiii!)"

"(Hiya! I'm Zoe!)" she grinned pointing to a slightly sad discourahed Blitz. "(And the Torchic is Blitz!)" she introduced. "(The dog is Stripes, the white one with a horn is Instinct and the Typhlosion is Ty!)" Tala picked Blitz up and hugged him. "Don't be discouraged! Keep trying but don't push yourself. On the bright side you learned Ember that's great!" Tala said gently making Blitz feel better.

Cyndaquil gave them all a wave. Ashley petted blitz a bit to make him feel a bit better

"Look at me I didn't speak a word when I was little! The first time I spoke was when I was five just turning six! And now look at me you'd never think that would you?!" Tala grinned.

Cyndaquil walked to tala and tugged at her kimono

Tala turned to the Cyndaquil "Yes sweetie?" she asked.

Cynda quil waved his arms about a bit "cynda,cynda cynda cynda quuuiiil cynd cyndaaaaaa?(well,could i play with showey and bwitz,pweeeese?)"

Cyndaquil nodded and waled to zoey "cynda?(comin?)"
