(I am gonna join as a Vulpix and a Riolu, even though no one posts very much anymore.) Flare raced ahead of Ash, her eyes blazing with happiness. She looked back to see the riolu, to see him lagging behind. "Hey Ash, we're almost at the meadow! We can't stop now!" She yelled back to him, slowing her pace.
Ash looked at her, feeling every muscle in his body hurt. "N-no..We can't...W-we have to keep going.." He puffed. His eyes widened with shock yet appreciation when the vulpix lifted him onto her back. "All ready? Cause I'm gonna run!" She said, leaving no time for him to answer she took off.
