Kyleigh lay on the ground, holding Teddiursa, both were scorched. "That hurt!" She yelled as Flareon, being a fire type, recovered the fastest and ran over to Umbreon and Espeon, trying to get them up.

"agh" Cairo emitted a sound composed solely of the pain he felt. "Everyone...return" Each of Cairo's Pok?mon returned to their respective balls, wherever they were scattered. After another moment, every small breeze bringing the degree of pain higher, Chad was the first to stand. He walked to check on the Pok?mon, Cairo stood in anguish, and proceeded to help Kyleigh and Teddiursa up. Cairo then stood eye level with Kyleigh and looked to her eyes, the part of everyone that went unscathed, the part of everyone that could give away emotion even when your completely opposed to it. "You two..ah..." Cairo paused in pain for a moment, "Okay?" he finished his query, addressed at Kyleigh and Teddiursa.

She nodded. Then she held up each pokeball, and one greatball, returning all her Pok?mon. When she stood, she fell slightly against Cairo. "I love my fire Pok?mon, but I haven't experienced this much pain since one of Flareon's attacks backfired, but that was years ago..." She said hugging him slightly. "Are you okay?" She asked the girl. The girl stood and shook her head yes. "Vaporeon..." She said returning her Pok?mon. "I shouldn't have told them where Azelf is..."

The other denizens of the Amity Square park rushed to the scorched scene of the devastating self-destruct. People were helping to pick up everyone's things, asking if they were all going to be alright. Kyleigh, Chad and Cairo continually told people they were fine, just as the rush of people became even greater, officer Jenny appeared, and proceeded to ask Chad about what had happened. People hearded around Kyleigh and Cairo walked slightly off to collect his Pok?Balls. He leaned over to pick up the last of them, and hurt slightly doing so, and letting out a slight cry of anguish, the painful spot was presently rubbed by a hand, but not Cairo's. "Are you alright Cairo?" Cairo, startled, turned quickly and agonizingly to who was behind him, "Dani, where'd you come from?" Cairo asked the brunette trainer, "I was walking around with Jumpluff" she stated with a smile, "You, mister, need some help" Dani proceeded to embrace Cairo tightly, much to his despair both emotionally and physically, "Let's get you to a Pok?mon Center, they've got to have something there for you, and there's no normal hospital for a few towns". Cairo looked at her, still surprised, and slightly nervous, wondering whether or not Kyleigh would see Dani who was still hugging Cairo tightly.

Kyleigh had just got the crowd away from her and went to find Cairo. As she turned, she saw Dani helping Cairo. Sadness swelled inside her. She slowly made her way to the Pok?mon center, not bothering to see if Chad was coming or where Dani and Cairo were going. 'I guess I'm just a third wheel...' She thought to herself as she approached the Pok?mon center.

Cairo turned to see Kyleigh running towards the Pok?mon center, and Chad riding in the side cart of Jenny's motorcycle, being escorted to it. "Look Dani, I appreciate the help, I really do", "Go, Cairo" Dani said with a somewhat dissastisfied smile, but knowing what Cairo needed to do. "Thank you Hopper" Cairo said with a smile as he hugged Dani once more then proceeded to run off to the center as quickly as a charred Pok?mon trainer could manage to run. He eventually made it in, and saw Kyleigh sitting, head down in a chair in the corner of the room. "Chad's being looked at right now" Jenny told Cairo on his way in, "Oh, umm thank you" Jenny smiled and nodded as Cairo began to approach Kyleigh, hoping she hadn't seen himself and Dani, but knowing she had. "Hi Kyleigh" Cairo said to the unresponsive girl, "I'm sorry Kyleigh..she..she doesn't mean anything, she was just trying to..to help" Cairo wanted to say more but it was all he could muster, fighting of the pain of his burns.

"Its okay..." she said softly. Then she stood, some skin on her shoulders peeling because her back got most of the burn since she used her back to shield Teddiursa. "Its almost my turn..." she said whispered, wiping tears. She looks at her hands. "I can't enter the contest." She said to Cairo after a few minutes of silence.

"Yes you can" Cairo said reassuringly, "burned or not, you're the most beautiful girl I or anyone could ever lay eyes on miss May" Cairo smiled and said, "You're my best friend, Kyleigh, I love you" Cairo said, blushing even through his burns, he embraced her and looked directly at her, he raised one of his hands and wiped the tears from her face. He looked to her eyes, the refreshing, most unequivocally amazing attribute of Kyleigh. "You're going to win that contest." Cairo said, still locked to her in an embrace.

She started to cry as she hugged back, head on his chest. "Teddiursa is burned!" She said then she said. "I could use Swablu for the appeal portion. Then there's Togetic for the first round and then Flareon for the last since she wasn't burned too bad cause she is a fire-type..." She said sniffling slightly, still head on his chest.

"That's more like" Cairo said smiling, in agonizing pain, hiding it from Kyleigh. Cairo kissed the top of Kyleigh's head, and Joy came into the room, "Pardon me, but Chad is just resting back there, I'm ready for Kyleigh and her Pok?mon when you are" Joy said with a smile, turning back into the room, Kyleigh lifted her head and looked into Cairo's eyes once more. Cairo still holding her said, "Think that means you" in a soft, whisper-esque tone. He smiled, and continued to look into her still somewhat glossy eyes, waiting for her to relinquish him so that she and her Pok?mon could be treated for their burns.

"I'll be back." She whispered as she let go of him and walked off with Nurse Joy. She made one last look at Cairo before disappearing behind Nurse Joy as she went to have her burns looked at.

Cairo had a seat and looked to Kyeligh as she walked away, Teddiursa had climbed to her shoulder looking back and attempting to communicate to who Cairo thought was himself, "What is it Teddiursa?" Cairo called to it, just then Cairo heard a familiar 'popping' sound and a red beam released a burned Golduck, holding one arm with the other. Teddiursa's eyes grew large as Golduck smiled, and gave a nod as if to imply that everything would be fine. Teddiursa relaxed and Kyleigh disappeared into the room with Joy. Cairo and Golduck looked to each other, and Cairo patted Golduck on the back, to which Golduck responded with a flinch out of pain. They looked to each other and Cairo quickly said, "Oh, sorry" which quickly became calm laughter from the both of them. The sun began to set outside, and the bright lights emitting from every direction in the bustling city's nightlife shown brightly, Cairo stared out the window, until finally an hour or two after Kyleigh had entered Joy welcomed him to be helped next. The operations ran into the deep night, Chad and Kyleigh had fallen asleep in their respective beds in the room. Joy informed Cairo that, "It's late" and that he should. "get some rest" as she wrapped the final bandage around his arm and left the room yawning. Cairo looked to Chad, who was snoring slightly, he smiled and then walked to sleeping Kyleigh, he brushed her hair from her face, fixed the blanket by covering her more fully, and kissed her forehead. Cairo proceeded to sit down on his bed, and stay awake, watching Kyleigh to make sure she'd be alright through the night.

As Kyleigh slept, Teddiursa sat up, sucking on her hands, trying to find the taste of honey, tears in her eyes cause the burns had made her hands taste like burnt food. She then, seeing Cairo awake, watching Kyleigh, walked over to Cairo and jumped onto his lap gently. Then whining, she held up her hands as a sign she wanted honey.

"You happen to be in luck Teddiursa" Cairo rummaged through his bag, and revealed a small portion of honey he had kept from the first time he met Kyleigh in Floaroma town, when he stumbled over her, becoming covered in honey. "Take it" Cairo whispered with a smile to the small bear Pok?mon he was cradling. Teddiursa began to smother it's hands messily with honey, and began to slowly remove it via it's mouth. "Ha, if you need more" Cairo told Teddiursa in a hushed tone, "I would be happy to go and get more from a store, especially for you Teddiursa" Cairo said with a smile as Teddiursa ate with a smile of it's own. Cairo sat with Teddiursa cradled in his lap, arms wrapped around it as it ate, watching it's trainer.

Kyleigh's burns started to hurt, so she started to toss and turn. Finally she awoke, in pain. She sat up to see Teddiursa eating honey and Cairo holding him. She got up and walked over. "Hey there." she whispered to both. She gently placed one hand around Cairo's waist, careful not to hurt her or him. Then she placed her head on his shoulder in the same careful manner.
