"Thank you, Mam, but I don't want to look weak right now!" Mavi said then turned to his new friend. "Are you OK, Bren?" He asked, placing a paw on the Pokemon's shoulder.

"Ack!" the seviper spat, flames rushing by her face and singing her nose. Her fork tongue flicked out and lapped her wound once before retracting back behind her lips.
But wait, what was this? The arcanine was... speaking with the meal? Aha! The arcanine didn't plan to eat them at all! She was apparently under the delusion that she was their mother.
"Hissssss" the seviper scowelled. This only made things worse. She had scared off pokemon from a meal before, but motherly protection was much more firm of a bond than the attachment to food. For a moment, the seviper almost considered giving up and retreating to find food elsewhere. But then the little Riolu announced that it was trying to put on its brave-face, and checked in on the other entre. Seviper licked her lips. This was too rare to pass up.
-
"I'm fine" Bren nodded to Mavie meekly, risking opening his eyes for a moment. "I'll just, uh, stay here behind you though, if you don't mind."
-
Seviper readied the blade on its tail as it began to glow purple, then thrust it forward like a dart at the arcanine. Poison Tail!

Flair was distracted by the little pokemon with their talk and turned slightly to growl at them.
"Quiet or you'll be swallowed whole if I can't concentrate!"
And of course, right when she turned the seviper hit her full on her front right leg which crumpled from under her. She fell with an oof and shook her head to clear it. Her vision was going fuzzy and she knew it was because of the poison. She heaved herself up and with an effort charged forward filling her mouth with fire and chomped, aiming at the serpents body.

The seviper lunged back as the arcanine came running after it. She hadn't expected such a quick recovery, and her overestimation had cost her.
"Hssss" she hissed, slinking backward, retreating into the grass. She couldn't have known how much more powerful the arcanine was than herself, but alas, she would need to find food elsewhere, but first she would find a nice hiding spot to tend to her wounds. Who knows, with any luck maybe she would come across one of her two snacks when they were alone...

"Thanks" Bren squeaked out from behind Mavi.

Mavi glared at the grass, but his heart was beating fast. But he refused to show fear!
"Yeah, thanks." He nodded to the large dog, he turned back to Bren and smiled at him. "You OK?" The he looked at the dog. "And you? Need me to find some berries? I have some Pecha berries."

"I'm alright" Bren put on a smile even though he was still shaking in his boots.
"I know a good recipe for those" he turned to the arcanine for approval when he heard words of a pecha berry.

As soon as the Seviper slid away Flair found herself swaying on her feet, and lost understanding of words for a few seconds. When she heard the word Pecha berries though it snapped into her mind and reminded her what was happening.
She turned and almost scrambled towards the Riolu.
"Where are the berries? I'm gonna.... need em.....NOW."
Her legs gave way and she decided it was best to lay down to conserve energy until the little Riolu got her the berries. If he didn't get em soon she would be sick for a very long time.

"Here, use this" Bren hurriedly picked up his sharpened stone and handed it to Mavi. The arcanine was worse off than she had let on. "Pull a tear in the Pecha, it's the juice that does the real trick, not the skin. She should drink it quickly."

Mavi nodded and cut a hole in the berry and let the juice go into the dog's mouth.
"Feeling any better, Mrs. Arcanine?" He asked once the berry was drained completely of it's juice.

Flair drank the juice gratefully and took a few moments to gather her thoughts.
"Hey! I'm no Mrs! I'm only a teenager.....I helped you cause you reminded me of my siblings. And I hate watching little kids get eaten or hurt. But I am NOT an old lady thank you very much."
She sniffed and stood up shakily, the pecha berry juice was already taking effect, but she would probably have to go slower for a while. But then, could she leave the little pipsqueaks alone? The Seviper may be back if she left. She sighed as she made the decision that she would stay with these kids for a while until she could at least find someone else to watch em. Her emerald eyes glittered as she looked at them.

"So, uh..." Bren felt odd suddenly. "You're uh, free to stay here with us if you want." He hoped she'd accept. Mavi was nice to have around, and Bren honestly had full faith that Mavi could pull them out of risky situations like this encounter with the seviper. But if the arcanine was near, perhaps those situations wouldn't even appear?
"We're both runaways" Bren admitted, gesturing and arm to himself and Mavi. "Are you running away too?"

Arcanine looked down at the two littel ones and her gaze softened.
"Sure I'll stay, just to make sure that snaky seviper doesn't come back to bite."
She sat down and let her fluffy cream tail settle beside her. Hearing the little Tyrogue's words she shook her head.
"No I'm no runaway, I was told to get going by my mother, she gave me a chance at this life of adventure."

Mavi looked at her and thought back on Human Riley's words way back there.
"Human Riley and Father once said that Growlithes evolve using a fire stone. Did you find one at an early age?" He asked, gazing at her with amazement, his father was bout up to her shoulder blade if they were both standing at full height. But his father was a short Pokemon, he would grow taller, Human Riley said so.

Flair looked down at the young Riolu thoughtfully.
Ah so that is where he came from, a human's pokemon. I'm surprised he escaped, he looks rather weak.
Flair shook her creamy maned head.
"No, my mother had found it for me whenI was young and gave it to me so I could protect my siblings while she foraged for food. I was the oldest and strongest one, so the duty fell to me."
She looked at him curiously. Why would he have left the trainer?
"Why did you leave this human, kid? It seems he was a very knowledgable one."

Mavi smiled as she said how she would protect her family, it was noble thing to him, but his ears dropped as he thought about her question.
"Well, it's a long story. Human Riley trained Lucarios for a living, he's a master at them. And then I started my training on my Aura Sphere. My aim was so bad they said I might want to forget it, but my Aura Sphere is everything to us!"
He lifted his chin and gave a nod to confirm it himself.
"So, I ran away to practice so I can show him how good I really am! I'll best him and my father!" His ears dropped again. "But you saw how bad my aim was yourself..."
