" Snooze, teleport me back to Pewter city please. -Why on Earth would I want to do that?- Snooze replied. " If you do I'll release you and let you be free, but only if you teleport me there..." -Freedom, what a naive thought. Still it is more appealing than remaining in a pokeball for the rest of my days- " Deep. Why can't you be fun loving like all the other Abra?" -I do love fun, only mym definittian of fun appears to differ from everyone elses...- " Just teleport us now..." Caleb blinked as they teleported. " Pewter, yes!" -Well? I don't feel very free...- " Ok. Well differences aside, Snooze, you've been a great companion and a great help to the cause. Thankyou," -Yes, whatever. Farewell...- Caleb gave a half smile and turned away. -Yes, farewell...and good luck friend...- Snooze finished to himself. Caleb ran to the Pewter hospital. Inside he found Kivan sitting next to Ilanna. " Caleb! You're back!" Kivan yelled Ilanna smiled. " Have the doctors run an analysis on this cure," He said to Kivan. " Kivan? I need a chat..." They stepped outide, Caleb looked unhappy. " I... I can't stay..." " What?" " I can't stay here anywhere without trouble finding me and my friends," He looked into Ilannas room, but the door was shut. " That's why I'm leaving..." " WHAT?!" " Here are the pokemon you leant me, Smaug, Stone Cold. Snooze I released..." " But, why? Why must you leave? Being a bounty hunter is always dangerous..." " No. I don't want this this. I've seen people die but I've never loved one, not like I love her. I don't want her to..." He paused. " No more of this. Farewell Kivan and thankyou," Caleb turned and left the hospital. Kivan thought about calling out but it would be pointless. How would Ilanna find this? [2 Weeks later] Ilanna was going to stay at Kivan's house for a few weeks, until she could contact her guild. " This is your room," Kivan showed her the small one person bedroom. " I'll let you unpack," Kivan grinned and left. Ilanna opened her suitcase and took out her jacket. She opened the closet and gasped at the sight. As the light flowed into the closet she saw one of Caleb's spare coats swaying in the breeze. Her eyes began to water as she gazed at the coat. She lifted the coat of the hanger and swept the dust off before trying it on. " Nice fit," She sighed. What could Caleb possibly be doing now?
