"Yep, it isn't too bad. Scarce second degree burns, and a little bit more damage than that, but it'll heal just fine" he assured Alison. What had caused Cairo's demise earlier, was now no more than a few burns. The power of a legendary was made apparent, and was realized as truly amazing. "What happened?" The doctor inquired as he finsihed up wrapping Cairo with bandages. Cairo pondered the query for a moment, and then looked to Alison, "I don't really remember, do you?" He inquired to his friend before she took his hand. A moment of silence loomed palpable before Alison began to shake her head, "No, I didn't see it" she said, before smiling. "Oh well. You'll be alright then" The doctor said, ushering Cairo to his feet and out of the ambulance.
"WILE!" "WAK!" "DUCK!" "GAR!" "FLEEEE!" "FARRRR!" Cairo Pok?mon exclaimed simulataneously before running to their trainer and embracing him as best they could. "Haha, hey guys, nice to see you too" he offered them, carressing and embracing them back as well as he could. "Should we get back to the Pok?mon center?" Cairo asked Alison as she looked on in slight disbelief. She couldn't believe he didn't remember what had happened.

"I think so. I think we all need to rest" She said hugging him, careful not to hurt him. They walked, hand in hand, over to Chad and Jessica, followed by Cairo's Pok?mon. "Lets go back to the Pok?mon center to relax and clean up" Alison said wiping her eyes and looking at her bloodstained clothes.

With a final flash of red light, Cairo recalled a smiling Mawile and finished recalling all of his Pok?mon. he reached to his bag and pulled out his sweatshirt, before putting it on, so as to cover the immense hole in his gray striped shirt. "My favorite shirt.." he said, smiling some before the four trainers progressed into the night.
They strode down a small hill and finally to the doors of a Pok?mon center, to which Joy had not yet returned. The doors opened electronically, and the young, adolescent Joy sitting at the counter was asleep. They progressed through the center and up the stairs before they stood dormant in the hallway. "Take care, Cairo" Chad said, throwing a hand to his shoulder before turning to his door and unlocking it. He looked to Jessica and smiled, before she smiled back immensly. She sighed, relieved before she fell into Cairo and embraced him tightly for a moment. "Ha, thanks?" He offered via query, and rubbing her back some. "Be more careful" She said, arms outstreched and hands on his shoulders before she too, took to her room. He rubbed the back of his head, before turning to Alison. They looked to one another and remained silent before Cairo said, "Hi" facetiously. They both laughed before Alison embraced Cairo tightly and responding with a greeting of her own,"Hi". "I don't know what happened" he began, "But I hope I didn't hurt anyone" he said to her before kissing her head. "I love you, miss matthews" he offered as he caressed her back.

"You have no idea how scared I was today that I had lost you..." She said as more tears streamed her face. Cairo continued to caress her back to try to comfort her. "I'm going to get cleaned up and change my clothes. Please don't get hurt while I'm gone..." She said trying to form a smile. She kissed him on the lips softly before she opened her door. "My door's always open if you need something before she walked in and closed her door. She grabbed a pair of jeans and a black fitted t-shirt. She jumped in the shower and changed into clean clothes when she finished. She pulled her hair in a bun and walked to her door and cracked it. "So it is really open" She said to herself before she walked to her bed and pulled out a journal and started to write.

He realized, when she told him that she needed to change her clothes, that he had covered her in blood, thus he entered her room through open door for only a moment. He knocked on the door lightly before recieving a, "Yeah, come in". He entered to see a smiling Alison, he only took a few steps, taking heed not to break any boundaries or limits, "Sorry, I just wanted to apologize so much for getting...heh..." he managed, "For getting blood on you there, I hope I didn't ruin anything" he told her meaningfully, but nervously.

"Its fine. I have plenty of clothes. I'm just happy your alive" She said closing the journal and standing. She walked over to him and hugged him tightly. "I love you Cairo and wouldn't want anything to ever happen to you again." She was on the edge of tears again. "I've never cared for someone, that wasn't family, as much as you. Besides you almost dying and my sister betraying everyone, today was good I guess." She said trying to bring forth a smile.

He smiled and laughed as he held his favorite person in the world. For a moment he couldn't keep his mind off of how fortunate he was to have her, and to have Chad and Jessica. Suddenly, his eyes grew wide and his mouth agape, "Woah, woah" he began, still holding her, but back up slightly, "I almost died?" he inquired. "Well actually you sort of did...well.." she began before laughing, "You didn't, though" she assured him, ushering him back into a tight embrace. "Whatever happened, you're alright now, mmkay?" she inquired rhetorically before she kissed him once more.
"Okay well then, I probably don't want to hear about it" he said, laughin slighlty, "I guess I'll let get going then" he said as he relqinquished her, not fully but slightly, and motioned to the door.

"You don't have to." She said not wanting to let him go. The whole 'almost losing him' hadn't passed him yet and she never wanted to let him go again, from fear that when she does he'll be gone forever. "I just don't want you to be caught alone without someone around...thats alll" She said blushing as she relinquished him. "You can go if you'd like..."

He looked to his friend and her eyes, he hoped he hadn't harmed anyone in the process of whatever had happened. As he contemplated what could have happened, he thought to Darkrai, he knew it was gone, that it had been rescued but he didn't want it to enter Alison's dreams any longer, she didn't owe him anymore favors. He didn't want to leave her, didn't want her to have any nightmares, he was still concerned given it was the first night after her previous nightmares. "I never want to leave you, Alison" he said as he reached his hand out to her and ran it up an arm for a moment. He turned away after saying that, and slowly took a step toward the door, he didn't want to leave her, but he didn't want to breach any boundaries. He hated the romanticism dynamic, it confused him endlessly.

"I'm going to sleep I guess. I'll see you in the morning then" She said as she kissed him goodnight and watched him leave. She sighed as she changed out of the jeans and into a pair of pj bottoms. She let her Vulpix out and the Pok?mon, feeling the concern coming off of her trainer, curled up next to her to comfort her. Soon Alison fell into a restless sleep. Her dream started out as her, Cairo, Chad and Jessica sitting under a tree having a picnic. But a few minutes later, Cairo was on the ground dead and everyone was crying. Soon they were surrounded by Team Rocket grunts, with AJ in front and Carri on her left and Val on her right. As Alison called out for help, Chad and Jessica dissappeared from her sight and AJ sent an electric and fire attack on Alison from the Flareon and Jolteon that they had traded the last time they had been friends. She awoke screaming as Vulpix looked at her with concern.

Cairo sighed as he closed the door, quietly, behind him. He took to the adjacent room, entering it, and removing the bandages before showering. The shower was painful only for a moment on his back, only a moment as it was all that took to soap his hair and his body then get out as quick as possible. "Ow..." he said as he stepped out. He took bandages he had been given by the doctor from the counter, and began wrapping himself. He was finished in a few moments, before he brushed his teeth, and eventually took to the main room. He was wearing plaid pajama bottoms and a plain, white t-shirt before creeping beneath the blankets, and trying to fall asleep, but pain and constant thoughts circulating made it difficult.
A few hours passed, and he still wasn't asleep. He threw the blankets and sat up on his bed, head in hand before he heard a scream come from across the hall. "I knew I shouldnt've left her alone" he said before ascending to his feet and joggin through his door and across the hall, he didn't hear anything coming from the room, so he assumed she wasn't stuck in a nightmare, but rather, awake. Thus he knocked on the door, he wasn't sure if she heard him, it was alright if she didn't, he just wanted to make sure she was alright. As he awaited any viable response, he noted the time, only two or so hours until he would normally be awake.

''Come in...'' called a shaky voice. As Cairo opened the door, a girl upright and curled up in blankets looked at him with large eyes. Vulpix was at her side trying to comfort her trainer. ''I'm sorry to wake you.'' she said to Cairo.

"God, you don't need to be sorry, I...I" he struggled with articulating his mind, thus, he simply walked quickly toher her before lifting her from her feet and embracing her. "I can't wait until this is over.." Alison said to him as she clutched him tightly, "Me too" he offered in response before leaning back slightly so that her head was in sight and they looked to each other more directly, "I was awake anyway" he said, smiling.

Chad awoke on the floor with a sore neck. As he showered he made sure to get that area and after a few minutes it felt normal again. Chad brushed his teeth and got dressed before releasing Mr. Mime and heading down to the lobby to wait for the others.

"At least I didn't wake you." She said with a smile, but her voice was slightly shaky. Her and Cairo made the way to her bed and sat down. She told him her dream that turned nightmare. Starting from the calming picnic to the deadly attacks sent on her. By time she had finished talking, she was calmer and her voice was steady. Vulpix had even taken to a pillow and was sleeping again. "If you want, you can go back to bed. I think I'll be okay." She said to her concerned boyfriend. He nodded and kissed her forehead good night. He made his way back to his room and lay on his bed, but sleep didn't come to him. Neither did it to Alison. So scared of another nightmare, she lay awake writing in her journal.
Rays of sun finally shone and Alison took it as a cue to get up and get ready. She walked into the bathroom and showered quickly before she dressed in a pair of jeans and a white shoulder-less, long-sleeve, wide-cuff shirt. She put on the locket her father gave her and curled her hair before slipping her sneakers on and walking into the lobby to see Chad. "Morning" She said to him.
