You and Lucario were peacefully walking through a grassy field, filled with little flowers. Yet as you were both just enjoying the pretty scenery and each other's company as always.

Lucario's ears perked up, hearing footsteps, at first he kept his guard up, placing you behind him for your safety.

Until a stranger came up to you both.

???: "Hey, girly~ have time for a little battle?"

Said the strange guy, quite way older than you.

You didn't like how sudden and weird it felt. But you accepted, wanting to train a little with Lucario and his moves.

The battle was pretty normal at first, the stranger put out his pokemon, which was a Houndoom. And the battle started. Yet in the meantime... When you tried to focus on the battle, you noticed the stranger staring at you the whole time. Making rather 'weird' faces and looking you up and down.

Even during the battle, Lucario could sense your uneasiness through the connection you both had, without having to look back at you. Something was really off.

The battle was going on for a few minutes, before the guy... Chuckled.

???: "Show's over Houndoom. Use flame thrower!"

... He said, while his pokemon used flame thrower. But Wait... Why was it coming your way??!

Houndooms flames contain toxins... And can be deadly for humans.
