A Sunny day overhead in a bright and bustling city, many people and pokemon were minding their own business and doing some shopping along a popular strip where a large hotel stood. Unknown to most, oblivious to their own devices, a crash could be barely heard from inside the hotel.

"Oh no... I've done it again! They're gonna get me for sure this time!" a young voice sounded frantic as the sound of small paws could be heard thumping across a wooden floor.

The voice came from a young Riolu, who's golden coloring made him quite noticeable anywhere he went, and today, it seemed he had gotten into trouble with someone again.

"oh, why did I have to go and knock over that thing? it looked really, REALLY expensive..!" He muttered under his breath as he ran, exiting the hotel and turning a corner quickly as he tried to evade some running Mightyena who pursued him. "M-maybe I'm not so good at cleaning either... w-what else is there in town..?"

In the distance there was a shadow in the branches of the trees who was glancing over to the strip mall ahead of them. It was a new thing to see, the pokemon had been so used to old fashioned asian style architecture and the like that this new sort of new age building styles rather peaked her curiousity.

"...How interesting.." A hushed female voice began, before her oversensitive hearing caught wind of something breaking, causing her to tilt her head slowly, "Hmm..? What could that have been, now..?" And with that, she slowly started to develop herself into the shadows, using a moving style like shadow sneak to make her way into the town.

The Accelgor arrived within the city, doing her best to avoid any contact from others.

"Very busy I see..." she began once more before her ice blue eyes caught the glimpse of a running gold a few feet infront of her. What an interesting pokemon. "Is that little one being chased? Perhaps I could be of assistance..?" She then closed her eyes and started to mutter something lightly in chinese, using a sort of shadow clone to pursue the young Riolu.

The shadow clone then formed itself with the Riolu's shadow, lightly reaching it's hand to the running baby Jackel.

"Young one, take my hand..I will keep you somewhere safe." It whispered quietly to Kintaro.

Terstrum was walking through the park, watching the trees and birds. He decided to drill his way into the city, so he used Drill Run to dig his way to the edge of the bustling city. He noticed a small shiny Riolu running, looking back every so often. ‘I think he’s running away from something or someone.’ Terstrum thought. So he walked casually, following the young Riolu. He noticed a Accelgor grabbing the young riolu’s hand, saying something to him. He decided to follow these two.

Kintaro jumped with a start as he noticed the shadow hand arise from his own shadow, causing him to quiver in fear. He had thought that a Gengar or something had tried to catch him for some reason, though he couldn't place why.

"W-w-wha..? K-Keep me safe..? W-Who are you?" he asked, his voice trembling as much as he was, though desperate to get away from his pursuers he would do anything, even if it meant risking the uncertainty of dealing with a possible ghost pokemon.

"O-okay..." he took a gulp before he slowly took the shadow's hand, only noticing the Excadrill moments later, unknowing if the pokemon was a friend or foe.

Soon enough as she was able to get Kintaro's attention, his shadow started to gently morph into a silhouette of an Accelgor. She had a feeling that perhaps he thought she would have been a Gengar, and he wouldn't have been that far off, her father was a Gengar, hence why she made such a great ninja, along with of course, her speed.

"I am Soi Fon..I have no intention to hurt or lie to you..You just seemed in need of aid..I am here to help." She remained calm and quiet to try to not startle the poor Riolu, he looked like he'd been through enough for one day.

After gently taking the Riolu's hand, she sent out a shadow clone to investigate Terstrum to see if he was intending to harm the Riolu.

"You.." the shadow clone notioned to Terstrum, "Are you after this child to harm him..? If so I cannot let you pass.." Her voice lowered with a small icy tint. No child would he harmed on her watch. She stood on guard as Soi Fon gently started to drag Kintaro to the depths of the shadows.

It had been a few seconds before she returned to her normal looking self, gently resting Kintaro on a neat little shadow leaf-like bed. This was her home, within the shadows. It was like a small tea garden, but it was always night time.

"Rest now, child.." Soi Fon began before lightly disappearing once more to check on her clone.

"uwah-!!" Kintaro started to freak out a little as he saw his shadow turn into an Accelgor, which startled him, yes, but also relieved that this pokemon claimed that she would not hurt him.

"S-Soi Fon..? H-hi... I'm Kintaro..." he muttered, glad that there was someone who held a gentle tone towards him. "Thank you... I just... made someone mad at me again... I... I broke a really expensive vase..."

After being sent down towards Soi Fon's shadowy home, he soon felt quite comfortable on the shadowed leafy bed, looking around as best he could, though, he admitted, he was not the best at seeing in the dark.

"O-Okay.. Thank you again Miss Soi Fon.."

Terstrum was shocked at the sight of this shadow figure. But he kept his cool and said: "Depends on what's going on..." He watched as the Accelgor and shin riolu disappeared into the shadows. "If your protecting him from someone or something evil," Terstrum said. "Then we're all okay, but if not..."

Zoey: *looks at the shadow figure and is shocked*

Cream: *ears go down and hugs zoey while looking at shadow figure*
