Here is the next chapter, hope you guys enjoy. as always im open to suggestions and ideas as well as constructive criticism.

Dawn's POV

I hugged Deren closer as the patrols passed by. It scared me the thought of being found in this way. One grenade is all it really took. I shivered at the thought. I looked to my right and spotted my M4 close by, just in case.

It was also a big relief we wouldn't have to risk our lives in an all out assault against a military base. All we would have to do is not be sighted and follow our enemies to the winter dome, whatever that may be. My guess is that it would up north near Snowpoint city, as the name suggests.

I let my thoughts slip away as I lay my head on Deren's shoulder. He was so warm. I looked up at him and he turned to me a smile on his face. "What's up?" He asked.

"Nothing," I respond. "I just wanted to look at you. Is there a problem?" I joked.

"Not if I can look at yours, too."

"Hey, I didn't give you permission!"

"Why not?" He asked in a mock sad tone.

"Fine you can," I gave in with a smile.

"Good, 'cause I like looking at your cuteness." He poked my face.

"Awww, thanks." I blushed. "And I like looking at yours."

We looked at each other and without another moment to spare, I kissed him and he kissed me back.

Deren's POV

I broke the kiss a few seconds later to see Dawn's smiling face and in that instant I knew for sure I liked her. She rested here head on my chest and I put my arm around her, everything felt so perfect in that moment. I put my head against the wall and closed my eyes, enjoying the moment.

The time seemed to be infinite. I never wanted this singular moment to end.

And as I opened my eyes again I was greeted to complete darkness. I looked around confused for a moment, when I realized I had fallen asleep in that position. I looked down, and through the darkness I could see Dawn sleeping on my lap.

I smiled at her, she was just so cute like that. I looked over at John and found him asleep as well. We were all bored from doing very little it seemed. "Hey, John!" I called out.

John stirred from his seat and turned sleepily in my direction. "Deren?"

"What time is it? It seems all of us passed out." I asked him. John looked at his watch and waited for his eyes to be adjusted to the darkness. After a few seconds he responded.

"It's six o'clock! That means the helicopters should be departing very soon." John looked up and out of the entrance we had made. He came back, "Looks like the first ones are already in the sky flying high. Deren quickly, lets work on moving the logs and reattaching the rotor blades. No more patrols should be walking around." John went outside and started moving the logs away.

I carefully lifted Dawn's sleeping form and put her on the ground, I didn't want to waker her after all. I moved outside and started helping him with everything. A storm of helicopters passed overhead flying farther and farther apart from each other.

"It looks like they are going in different directions." I state.

"No, they do that in order to evade detection over cities and towns. They spread themselves out about a mile apart so they won't alert the public to anything." John threw another log aside, part of the helicopter was finally showing again.

After a few more minutes Dawn stepped out, awakened by the commotion no doubt. She looked up at the sky and without a word started to help removing the logs with us. We were done and began re-installing the rotor blades on the top of the helicopter.

By the time we were done the helicopters had long gone and it was our time to rise into the sky and follow them. John and I determined the direction, so we were all set to move.

John started up the engine and our blades started spinning. We rose up into the sky once again and took off into our new objective.

Star's POV

I awoke in a cold sweat, a nightmare had startled me awake. Its interesting how a dark pokemon can even have a nightmare. I shook my head and stood up. I looked at my bandaged midsection and started undoing them. I didn't need them anymore, I had fully healed already.

I tossed them aside and walked near the front of this machine. I very much did not like being thousands of feet in the air. I was always quite afraid of heights. Even when I did escape that compound, the climb down was frightening.

I saw Deren and Dawn sitting next to each other as usual. My heart sank at the sight, I need to get my mind off of him. Its obviously too late for any kind of chance, not that I ever had one.

I sighed and looked out at the moon, it was half full tonight. I needed entertainment in some form, but unfortunately, there isn't much to do in such a small space. I paced around in a circle near the back in complete boredom. Finally, I settled on laying back down and trying to sleep, hopefully we'll be on the ground again soon. I very much prefer walking.

John's POV

We had been flying for hours, and as the time went by, I noticed the temperature dropping. Mt. Coronet was on my right side and I could start seeing snow on the peeks. This might get tricky, as none of us is properly suited to be going this far north. I only hope that the base isn't much farther, but that also worries me.

What would the base look like? If it was well hidden like the one we just left was, we'll have one hell of a hard time trying to find it. This seemed like near suicide going in like this. We had to get more intel if are to do this right. I contemplated flying back to the military base, but it wouldn't be worth it. From the sound of it they didn't know anything either.

I sighed and looked ahead, It was another high peek. I pulled the steering wheel and our height increased, I could see now that the other side was completely snow filled. All of the ground was white, we were approaching Snowpoint City now.

I heard a beeping noise in the cockpit and looked down, the radar system was going off. It showed something big at our 11 o'clock position. I look up at the night sky but saw nothing. I looked back at the radar and saw that it was now at our 7 o'clock position. I tried looking back but of course you can't exactly through metal.

I turned forward again and checked the radar. Whatever it was it was gone now, the beeping wasn't going off anymore.

Looking forward, I examined the ground, it was very mountainous and covered with snow. Walking would be a pain, and touchdown will be bad too.

A chill came over me and I checked the temperature reading, it had fallen to 40 degrees. I hit the doors button and both side doors on the blackhawk closed. I turned on the heat, to shake the cold weather as best I could.

The radar went off again.

I looked back down and saw whatever it was at our 5 o'clock position. I noticed then that it was huge, and closing fast. It passed us on the right and found it at our 2 o'clock position. I turned the helicopter so it was directly ahead of me and tried to spot whatever it was. I looked up, down, and straight in order to find it.

I saw something, but it was too dark to identify, and it moved way too quickly. It fell off the radar again, so I decided I should ignore it. I was getting quite tired as well. I check my watch and found the time to be 3 in the morning. No wonder I was so tired.

I scanned the ground for a good place to touchdown for the night. I found a nice field near the edge of the mountain, the last part of the mountain before its purely snow. I landed as soft as I could and shut off the engine.

It was warm in the cabinet, but it wouldn't stay like that all night in the blistering cold. I found some blankets and placed them carefully over the others and finally myself. I lay in the back with the Houndoom and did my best to fall asleep.

Please review and give me some feedback.
