Very short Pokemon drabble 7/13/2010

This features my original character Kaida. She has a huge back story and not the best life, but she eventually discovers herself and sets out for a new land. This is just a mall drabble I wrote for an experiment...or something.

It was something more grand than I could comprehend. Above me, the stars twinkled and the moon cast its light on the lake water below. Along the lake's surface snoozed several surskit and a few Volbeat flashed flirtatiously to a group of gathered Illumise as the hoots of Noctowl perched in the trees created a score for the activities of the night. Those who cast this time as a metaphor for death have never truly experianced nightfall. It's brimming with just as much life as the day and in my opinion, the stars in the sky are much more beautiful than the cotton puffs of the day. I laid back in the cool grass, closing my eyes. I heard a rustle behind me and then a few sorrowful notes. It seemed a band of Kricketot and Kricketune were gracing me with a performance tonight.

I listened as they strummed out their emotions in a way words could never portray. I sighed, jealous. It would be so easy if I could only release my emotions in such a way, but I've never been musically inclined and I would be more likely to stare at a peice of paper at a loss for words than compose them into poetry. The only way I knew how to express myself was through battle. I picked a pokeball from my belt and stood up. The Kricketune band stopped playing at my disturbance and hopped away. The Kircketot chattered to themselves and considered me to see if I was a threat. I threw my pokeball into the air and they scattered as well. Suddenly the night had become more still.

My Banette stood before me, hugging the doll it carried close. It was still attached to the doll it was born from and I had no intention of ever changing that. After all--I looked at the fading brown stripe dyed in my hair--I was the same way. "Bay?" Banette looked up at me, expectent for a command. I had none to give. I was even at a lose when it came to battling at the moment.
