Through the pine forest near was a small gothita who was taking a stroll. She had told her handler that she was going to go through here to pick some flowers. In which she did, though since it had rained earlier that day the path was quite muddy. It resulted in her beautiful hair and feet getting quite dirty. As she was coming out from within the forest, an Abra was sitting under a tree. He was snoozing a bit but he woke up once he heard the gentle footsteps nearby. As he blinked open an eye, he spotted the small gothita and in her hands were a group of flowers.

Jay yawned and stretched as he slowly stood up and headed over to the small mon. He smiled down at her,”That’s a lot of flowers you got there,”he said softly.

Zephira smiled at him with her face covered in mud. “Yeah! I picked these out for our master. I’m sure she’ll like them~” She giggled as she spun around.

Jay nodded,”I think she would like them too. Though you shouldn’t have gone alone,”he frowned. “It could’ve been dangerous. You could’ve gotten hurt,” he reminds her.

She nodded,”I know, but i’m ok now. I tried Isolde but she just brushed me off, and I tried Captain but he’s too busy playing with his lapras plushie.” She sighed.

“and me?” He asked

“I..I couldn’t find you,”she said softly.

“You could’ve just said my name. I’m always here,”he smiled softly at her and rubbed the top of his head. Only then did he realized how much mud was caked onto her.  “You sure ar messy Zephie,” He chuckled.

“Ok, I’ll call you next time,” She agreed but then blinked as she looked down at herself. “Yeah, it was pretty muddy out there. I think I got cut a few times too, there was a lot of thorns,” she said gently.

Jay frowned,”that’s not good, let me help you take you to master. She’ll clean you up~” He said softly.

Carmella nodded,”Ok,”she said gently as Jay held her hand to take her to their master. The main house wasn’t really that far from the edge of the forest. It looked more like a dutch cottage. As jay opened the door he looked around for Carmella. At first she wasn’t there so he turned to her.

“Carmella stay here, I’ll go get her,” he said gently and teleported away. He soon found her and took her to Zephira. “There she is,” he said to her though she only heard poke language., though he pointed to Zephira.

Carmella went wide eyed. “Zephira! What in the world did you do? We need to clean you up!” She quickly said as she picked her up and headed to the bathroom. Zephira then waved to Jay as she went out of view.  “You need to look nice, you are going to meet someone special today and you need to look your best.”

Zephira blinked. “Meeting someone new?” She thought to herself as she contemplated what or whom it could be. Was it a poke? A human? She didn’t know but it was all rather intriguing. As soon as she was in the bath, Carmella gently washed her, tickling her in the process. Since she was so small, it was easier to get her cleaned up and looking nice.

“There you go, later today you’ll be surprised, just don’t get messy anymore okay?’ she asked her.

Zephira nodded and went to go find the others. They were all in a room talking to themselves, all except Isolde who was trying to gain the attention of them all. “Hey guys!” Zephie called as she ran up to the group.

Jay smiled,”You’re all better now~” She nodded and he smiled. “You seem extra happy today, how come?”

“Well…”she giggled. “Our master has a surprise for me~”

Isolde’s eyes went wide before rushing up to her. “She has a surprise for you but not for me! Who does she think she is!” She hissed.

Jay gently pushed her down. “Calm down Isolde, Carmella must have a reason why it's for her.”

Isolde just rolled her eyes,’Yeah, whatever.” It started to get cold around them due to her being angry.

Captain who was in his pullable boat started to bubble and talk. “I wonder what it could be!” He said in excitement.

“Yeah,”jay said with a smile.

“Maybe it’s a new accessory, like a bow,” she giggled and smiled at him. Fixing the bow on her neck.

“Possibly, but what if it’s  a new playmate? Jay asked.

Zephira’s eyes went wide eyed,”Then I would play with them all day!” She giggled.

They didn’t realize how late it was getting for it was past the afternoon. In a separate room, Carmella was awaiting for the ranch handler of another ranch who was to bring the surprise. Soon there was a knock on the door. She quickly jumped up and went over to the door. “Hello! and you must be Ame~ He sure is handsome~” Carmella cooed. The fusion Zorua just rolled his eyes a bit.  “Let me just go get her~” With that she quickly went into the next room.

The door opened and Carmella soon was in the presence of her ranch pokemon. “Zephira, your surprise is here! You have to meet him~”

Isolde went wide eyed,”a HIM!?” Jay shrugged and Captain just bubbled with a questionable shrug.

Zephira blinked and nodded before heading after her. “A guy?” She asked herself before waving to her friends. Though as she went to the next door her eyes widen.

“Zephira, this is Ame, your first breeding partner!” Carmella giggled.

Zephira turned red in embarrassment as she scuffed the ground. “u...uh hi, I’m Zephira,”she said to Ame.

He smirked and smiled,”It’s nice to meet you, I’m Ame. I'm sure we’ll make beautiful babies,”he whispered and she blushed more.

She nodded and shook his paw that he had extended. “Y..you really think so?”

“I know so,”

Zephira smiled brightly when h e did so and soon she finally looked up to see him fully. What caught her attention more, was his green fire that surrounded his neck and his tail. She couldn’t help but think that she could try and make it into a bow. So she quickly darted over to him and played with the fire. Carmella was trying to pull her away so she doesn’t burn her fingers but the Gothita had successfully made a bow in that short time. Even if it did last for a few seconds. Ame just watched with wide eyes.

“There!” Zephira giggles. “Now you had a bow, just like me,”

Ame just chuckled.
