It's always me isn't it? Every time someone needs help they end up bumping into me. Can't an Umbreon get some peace? Well, too late to turn him away now, I invited him to stay in my den. I barely met him, and I invited him in… taking a closer look at Vulpix it doesn't look like he's in any condition to pick any fights. Hell, even at full health he doesn't look like he'd stand up to much, let alone me. Still, it'd be best to avoid ALL fights. I guess I'm still soft. I can't leave him in the snow alone; these mountains can be Hell when it snows.
  “Thanks again for taking me in. I may be ice type, but even so… a blizzard is no place for anyone to be.” He said. I was wondering if his fur was white from the snow or if he was native here. Guess he is native. I gotta say… all white fur looks really good on him… all white except that purple spot on his neck. That's why he's frail, he got toxiced. Either way, he still looks really handsome. I'll have to do something about that toxic though. “Yeah, trust me I know. I've had my fair share. Make yourself at home, I got a spare bed for you if you want it.” I replied. “Not to pry or anything but… why two beds? By all means I don't mean to offend! But, you look like you're alone here.” “Prying?” He looked skittish, as if he'd run off. “S-sorry! I didn't mean to-” “No, you're fine. Just find that a funny way to say that. Yeah, I've lived alone my whole life but I get company often. Don't be scared to ask questions, if you're staying here you deserve to at least know about me.” He let out a sigh of relief. You know, the more I look at him the cuter he looks. He's my age too… but does he like me? “So what do you think?” I asked him. “It's really nice in here, cozy but nice. It feels very inviting. You're really inviting, thank you again! …you wouldn't happen to have food? Sorry to impose-” “Look, you don't need to apologize alright? Ask any question and you'll get an answer. Not trying to be mean but there's no need to be scared. I'm not going to invite you in during a storm to murder you, if I wanted you dead I'd leave you in the storm. ...Besides, why would I kill someone who's already dying.” he looked shocked.
  “It's that obvious huh? Guess I should've known you'd figure it out. I wanted to spend my last moments with someone, but I understand if that's too much.” Vulpix said sadly. I walked up and gave him a hug. I'm not going to let toxic kill him. I figured it out as soon as I saw that purple spot on his neck. That's why he's so frail, he's dying. But I have a berry for that somewhere. I let him go. “I'm not going to let you die, I have a berry that cures that somewhere in here.” I replied. “But-” I put a paw to his mouth. “What? Trying to say I need it more? I'm not dying of toxic. Besides, I'm not letting you ruin my streak of happy guests by letting you die. You are more important to me than anyone else right now, you are my guest and under my protection.” He blushed, smiling at me. “Thank you… I'll pay you back-” “You don't get it do you? As long as you're here, you're my guest. I can't make my guest work for me. Think of it as a gift.” He went quiet, still blushing. He looked a little off balance. “Y-you’re too kind, you know? I'm starting to feel really tired...and dizzy… I think I'll lay-” He fell over, I caught him with one paw, then checked his breathing… Still alive, I still have time. I moved him over to the bed.
  He can't eat the berry, that's a little problem. I really didn't want to have to do this- for his sake, not so much mine. I'll have to do it mouth to mouth. I picked it up and chewed it in my mouth, making sure he could swallow it. Here goes something! I opened his mouth and placed mine onto his, making sure his tongue was out of the way. I… well, you know. Gave him the “kiss of life” and then grabbed his nose. Now his body should just take over and… *swallow* I let go of his nose and he breathed heavy for a while before returning to normal. Now, I'll wait.
  He's waking up, no no no! What are you doing? “Don't get up, you'll hurt yourself.” I said. “O-okay. But I should be dead! ...I finally get it, you're an angel. I must be in the afterlife after I died in the storm.” I pinched him. “Ow!” “Nope, you tried your best to die but I wouldn't let you.” “But I didn't eat the berry! How am I fine?” “Well… I had to… are you sure you want to know?” “Yeah, I want to know how you saved me.” “I had to chew the berry for you and… kiss you to get you to swallow it.” We both blushed and sat quietly. Finally, he broke the silence. “Want to kiss me again?” he asked. I could almost hear his heart beating he looked so nervous. I didn't hesitate to walk up close to him and look him in his eyes. He really is a beautiful guy, or at least he's really damn cute. I closed my eyes and waited for him to lean in… um, he doesn't know how to kiss does he?
  “You shy still? It's alright, go on and kiss me.” I encouraged him. “I don't know how…” He said downtrodden. “Don't worry I'll help you then. Just follow my lead.” I wrapped my paw around his head gently and eased him towards me. Finally, his lips met mine. I pushed my tongue inside his mouth, feeling the warmth of it reach mine  as he did the same. Mmph! He's really bad at kissing, guess he needs practice. We broke our embrace together and I stared into his beautiful blue eyes. I'm glad I rescued him.
  “I… I love you.” Vulpix said. My heart started beating harder, he actually said it! “I know we just met, but you've done so much for me and you're so kind to me. I've never met anyone like you before, and if I leave I don't think I'll meet anyone like you again. So… can I stay with you, forever?” I hugged him really close to me and kissed him on the forehead. “Yes. I love you too. You're also really kind, and you're cute too. I'll spend the rest of my life with you if you need me too.” He started choking up on his tears. “I never thought I'd meet, the right one for me! All the other guys laughed at me when they found out I loved them! Finally finding another guy that likes guys too, is making me choke up! I'm so happy! Thank you! Thank you…” He sounds tired. “Shh… let's sleep now. You still need sleep so you can feel better. You can lay down with me.” He started to stop crying. “Okay…” he let out a yawn. We both laid down on the grass bedding. He fell asleep quickly. Finally, someone who's perfect for me. I'll see him tomorrow, but for now… sleep.
  “Wake up, Vulpix. Time for breakfast!” He opened his eyes and yawned. He finished yawning and smiled at me. “What's for  breakfast Umbreon?” “Potatoes and fresh cooked Spearow. It died in the blizzard so it was still fresh when I found it.” “Spearow huh? I hate having to eat other pokemon but… I'm an omnivore I need meat. I'm not above killing a bird or fish pokemon to survive. Glad he passed away naturally.” “Yeah it sucks, but it's the way it goes. Pokemon eat pokemon. Glad you're not above killing other pokemon for food. We're going on a hunt today. Now eat up! We'll need the energy.” I gave him a kiss. “Thanks for breakfast!” He thanked me. No problem.
  He finished eating quickly and stretched out. “Time to hunt huh? Maybe we'll find another dead bird, save us the trouble. I don't want to kill anything today.” he said. “Not likely, everything has probably been picked clean by now. But, we might find something injured. That'll make it easy, we'll just finish it off.” I replied. He nodded in agreement. “Just thoughtful thinking. I hate killing. At this rate though, we'll need four Spearows to last a month. That or something bigger.” “Want to try Deerling?” “We'll see what's game today. No need to rush right now.”
  “Shh… I hear something injured. It's time, flank it!” I whispered to Vulpix. He ran silently behind it, perfectly entering position. Let's see what it is. I ran up to it and quickly crouched behind a rock. Deerling. That's perfect. It's laying down on it's side bleeding, it won't be getting up again. I walked towards it. “Please! Don't kill me! I-I’ll give you all my food! I'll help you find more food! Just spare me!” He pleaded with me. He was panting hard. I walked right up to his head. “I'll give you the chance to say your last words. Make them count.” I replied to him. “Eat shit!” he tried kicking me with his front hoof but I bit his leg hard. “Aghhh!” He writhed in pain. “Last chance. Say you're final words.” I demanded. “If you see my family, spare them please! If you must kill me, do it quickly. And remember, spare my family!” I looked him in the eyes. “I will spare them, close your eyes and I'll make this quick. Any God you believe in pray to them now. I will wait.” He muttered something under his breath before finally speaking. “I'm ready…” I lunged for his neck and snapped it quickly, killing him instantaneously. Rest in peace, you're family is safe.
  Vulpix walked up to me. “I was ready to step in but I see you took care of it. Even even you have to kill you do it as nice as possible. Killing is never nice though.” he spoke sadly. “He asked us to spare his family, don't attack any more Deerling. I promised him his family would be safe.” “I heard, I will keep your promise too. Thanks for giving him a quick death. Even if we didn't get to him he would have died. At least now we won't die.” Vulpix… you really are perfect. “Grab him. We both need to carry him.” I spoke.
  “We'll eat more potato and Spearow tonight. It should last us two more days.” I told him. “No complaints here! Glad to be eating anything!” he chirped. I'm curious now… “Vulpix?” I asked him. “Yeah?” “Before today how often did you eat?” He looked down. “Well… barely enough to survive. I rarely ate anything. That's why I'm not picky.” I gave him a hug. “Well from now on you'll get to eat at least once a day. I'll make sure.” He smiled at me. I love that smile. “Before you my life was rough, but now I feel like everything is going to get better. I used to have no home or family. But now I have you and your home. Thanks.” “Think of it as our home. Also, when you talk to me… feel free to call me “Baby" or “Honey".” I blushed. “Okay, baby…”
  He walked close to me and embraced me, kissing me warmly. Now that I have him… no… Now that we have each other, everything will be better. He broke his embrace. “I have a present for you Vulpix.” I pulled out a light blue scarf and put it around his neck. “Now, let's go to bed.” I told him. “Thanks for the scarf, I love it! It matches me perfectly! Also, isn't early to go to sleep?” “I never said we were going to sleep.” I replied. We both blushed brightly. After a moment of silence he spoke again. “I'm ready, let's do it.”
