My crobat comes flying back to me. I'm pleased to see he's unharmed. "Crroo crobat!" He says as he lands on my shoulder. Then Alana stirs, a bit, then her eyes open. I smile, relieved as she says, "Celebi? Flare? Al?" Then she sits up with a wince. I can tell it hurts her, but I don't think she's as injured as badly as Flare. I scoot towards Flare and put my hand on his forhead and gently sweep some hair from his face.
As Alana states her disbelief at the masked man's actions, she gets up and starts walking away, asking me to take care of Flare. Well, I'm not about to leave him lying here alone, anyways. But I'm not gonna let her go by herself, either. "Crobat, Vena, Magnemite, go with her, and follow her orders as though they're mine. Help her stop that madman!" As they go off to follow Alana, I pray quietly, "And help Celebi find it's way back to the light."
I turn my attention back to Flare. I get a rag out of my backpack, and pour some water from my canteen to dampen it. I gently rub his face with the cool wet rag. "You'll be alright," I say softly.
