~Chloe~

The more I walked, the more tears fell. I was so close to getting us out of here and Chloe and Aiden had to fight. I had to get back to Nikki. I just didn't know how. I needed Cole to turn around and go back. To go back to Aiden. We just kept walking through. I knew we had to stop at some point.

After about an hour we finally stopped. Cole sat down and leaned on a tree. I dried my tears and sat down in front of him. Even though I didn't know the move, I gave him a mean look.

"What's with the face?" He asked.

I scowled harder. 'If only I could talk to you!' I thought.

"Me and my brother had a fight, it's normal between brothers." He said.

'Does he not get it?' I thought.

I tackled him, thinking I could smack some sense into him.

"What was that for?" He asked angered.

I scowled again, but not as hard as before. His face started to soften.

"I took you away from your friend." He said.

I looked to the ground.

Cole scratched my ears. "I'm sorry."

We stayed silent for a bit.

"He wanted us to travel together. Aiden. I told him no. You train by yourself, you can get stronger faster. He yelled at me. Thought I didn't want to stay with him. He took the message wrong. It set me off that he was accusing me. I didn't mean for you two to get separated."

While he talked, I felt more tears run down my face. I just wanted to go home, to see my sister. I walked up next to Cole. I sat down and stared at the ground. I felt something wet against my head and looked up. I was expecting rain but instead, saw a tear run down Cole's face.

I couldn't bear to see him cry so; I stood on my hind legs, leaning against him. I used my paw to wipe away the tears on his face.

"Thanks." He said to me.

I sat back down and stared at the ground again. Then, Cole started talking to me.

"You may be a Pokémon, but you make me feel less lonely. Sure, I have Aiden, but you're different."

After he spoke, I felt him give me a slight kiss on the forehead. This brought back the memory of before. When Nikki and I were still human. She was fixing up my hair and putting pins in it. I couldn't take it anymore! I sprung up and started to run.

"Chloe, wait!" I heard Cole yell after me.

I didn't care anymore. I wanted to get to my sister and go home.

I had a choice. It was either Cole or Nikki…

And I choose Nikki.
