Asher (No Foongus isn't fake, he's just unresponsive XD)
Perhaps, if it were a different day or he were a different trainer, Asher wouldn't have to be in his current situation. But, he never was very lucky- and he just so happened to take a nap right before the boat just so happened to head right into a storm. The panic and yelling caused the boy to jerk awake from his spot on a couch- yes, he fell asleep on a random couch. He blinked around, gaze clouded from not being fully awake- his partner, a Foongus; who honestly didn't seem to be a real pokemon, just sat and blinked at him. The boy shook his head in confusion, but as he turned an a sudden heat rushed to his face, Asher realized he was only feet from a blaze. Asher let out a yelp and took a step backwards, he then grabbed Foongus by it abdomen, the creature didn't respond. As he race one direction, Asher turned his head to face a group of calling trainers- suddenly a surface crashed against his knees and he barreled over the side of the boat. Asher struggled for a moment before steadying himself and realizing he had hit a bridge of ice, he turned to see several other survivors, and Foongus sliding absentmindedly on his back.
Emelia
Emelia stood, shaking, any other time she would be screaming and leading- but now she stood and shook. She was talking, Emelia remembered it so clearly, just talking; maybe even laughing. Then out of nowhere, a loud crack was heard- then everything burst into flames. She was stuck between the screaming for her to get off the boat, and the thought that there may be survivors in the fire. Shoulders of running passengers bumped into her as her black hair writhed in the heat, then; without thinking, she took a step closer to the flames. The colors echoed in her dull gaze, "Don't worry, you'll be okay!" she called to the cries of pain that were muffled by the raging blaze. She imagined her body engulfed by a fire-proof suit, just like those of a firefighter's. People were going to die if she didn't help them. Her gaze went serious as Emelia suddenly took a leap towards the disaster, but she was brought back by a compelling force of white fur. The Seel that head-butted her seemed to yell at the girl before waddling away. "Wait, Splash!" Emelia yelled out before following her pokemon and forgetting about the flames behind her.
