Cloud's POV

"You're lying," Cinder said with a smirk.
My expression hardened. "About what?" I asked them. "About being jealous of Misu?"
"No, about knowing when you're beaten. Face it; you haven't let Kawaii go." He chuckled quietly and patted my head.
I searched my heart and found out he was right. My heart still skipped a beat when I thought about Kawaii. "So I lied. What's it to you?"
"You shouldn't have lied. That Blade guy seemed like he wanted to hear a sob story."
"I'm confused," Misu joined in. "He seemed glad that he didn't have a sob story."
"I guess I should've told him that this wasn't the first time that I loved and lost," I said.
"What? You're a repeat offender?" Cinder asked me. "You should've told him that!"
"Well, you should've told me that he wanted to hear that!"
"I'll tell him! Did anyone see where he went?" They shook their heads. "I'll find him myself." I trotted over the backyard, but no sign. I had no idea how big and crowded the House was. I circled around to the backyard but didn't find him there either. Then I looked up. There he was, leaning against the chimney.
I cleared my throat and yelled out. "I don't know about you, but my friends say that I'm not the only one! And I kinda lied about letting her go! I'll never fully let her go!" I looked around at the staring Pokemon and humans. "Mind your business," I hissed at them.


Beaky's POV

I looked back at Archangel. The Murkrow was looking around like she actually knew what I was looking for. "In case you didn't know, we're looking for a green Espeon," I informed her. "Can you spot her? It's like spotting a whale in a fishing pond."
