Alex walked slowly along the plains, sticking to the beaten path, her Growlithe, Zippo, close beside her, his softly padded paws making virtually inaudible sounds on the grass. She patted the dog Pokemon's head and smiled, looking around the plains at all the various Pokemon going about their daily business. It was an overall nice, sunny day. She was deeply enjoying it, the afternoon sun not too hot quiet yet, or too cold for that matter. She was very pleased with the day so far, including the quietness of the plains she had enjoyed.

The sound of a loud roar broke the silent air, followed by loud growls and snarls. It continued for several minutes, then everything went eerily silent.

Alex jumped when the roar broke the stillness of the plains, scaring a few Pidgey into the air. Zippo began to bark, looking out towards where the roar had originated from, Alex nodded and the pair of them began to run to where the roar had come from, wanting to see what was wrong. As they neared it though, they slowed, though, not sure what it was.

There was a large amount of carnage surrounding a den. Two Luxray were slashed open and laying on the ground. The male was dead, but the female was breathing shallowly. She glanced at Alex, her eyes glazed over as the life slowly ebbed from her. Three kits were also next to her, two dead but one alive.

Alex's mouth dropped open as she looked at the carnage. It was absolutely horrible. Choking back tears, the young girl leaned forwards and lifted up the last leaving kit, deciding then and there that she would raise the Pokemon for the two Luxray. She cradled the small kitten, rocking it slightly as she turned away from the scene and allowed a single tear to fall.

"Protect...her..." the mother wheezed in Pokelanguage as she closed her eyes and breathed her last breath. The baby began to wail loudly, snuggled against Alex. A Buneary poked her head above a pile of rocks, her eyes misted with tears.

Alexandra blinked when she saw the Buneary, blinking her tears away as quickly as she could, "W-who are you?" She sniffled a little, rocking the kit. Alex could speak the Pokelanguage fairly well, and hearing the mother Luxray's voice had nearly broken her down completely.

"My name is Mini." She hopped onto of the rocks. She was much smaller than the average Buneary, thus her name. She sighed as she looked around at the carnage, then hopped onto Alex's shoulder. Altessa continued to wail loudly.

She glanced at Mini and nodded, "I'm Alex. Zippo is the Growlithe, and this," she looked down at Altessa, "I'll call her Altessa," she muttered, with a small nod added to it afterward. She looked then to Zippo, who barked softly.

Mini nodded and patted Alex's head with her ear. She gently patted Altessa's head and the kit continued to cry. Mini sighed and closed her eyes. "She's hungry."

Alex stared blankly at Mini. "What am I supposed to feed her?" She asked, blinking. Alexandra had never had a baby Pokemon of her own, Zippo, in fact, was her first Pokemon, and he was almost two years old now. She had no experience with babies in general, either, so she would need help with this venture.

Mini sighed and buried her face in her ears as she let out a few "Bun, Bun" in annoyance. She had never had to tell another how to raise a child even though she'd had a couple of her own. "Babies drink milk. I thought that was common knowledge."

"I know that," Alexandra snapped, "But where am I supposed to get the milk? She can't just drink normal milk, can she?" She sighed, feeling positively like an idiot now. She looked away from Mini and down to Zippo.

"She has to drink milk specially formulated for baby Shinx. She could probably drink Miltank milk, but special milk would be better..." She buried her face in her ears, feeling bad about having patronized Alex.

Mel jogged accross the plains toward them, having heard the roaring. He reached the scene, his eyes taking everything in. "Well, this isn't something you want to see," he muttered, then he heard the Shinx crying, and turned to face Alex. "That your Shinx?"
