Xerione hid behind every suit of armour she found. She couldn’t let herself be seen by her father, or else she would be kicked out and could never find the pokeflute. Suddenly, Xerione heard crying noises. A maid, in a tattered uniform, was crying on the floor of the hallway. Xerione rushed over. “What’s going on?” Xerione knelt down beside the young girl. “M-My Furfrou… He’s m-missing…” The girl exclaimed in between tears. “Where did you last see him?” Xerione asked. “I-In the c-courtyard…” The girl exclaimed. “Okay then. Kira, can you stay with the girl to calm her down?” She asked. Kira nodded, rushing over to the girl and hugging her. “Okay, the rest of us can split up and find that Furfrou!” Xerione, Flannere, Kai, and Alexander ran off to find Furfrou.


Xerione and the gang stood in the middle of the courtyard. “Okay. Flannere, you and I will search that hedge.” Xerione pointed at a square hedge. “Alexander, you search that one, and Kai, you search that one. Got it?” “Yup!” Her pokemon exclaimed in unison. “Break!” Kai exclaimed, and they each ran off to their separate hedges.


“Ugh. Why are we even helping that baka?!” Flannere sighed. “Because it’s the right thing to do.” Xerione shot back. “Fine. Let’s just-“ Flannere was cut off by a woofing noise. “Okay, I think we found the Furfrou!” Xerione proclaimed. “Isn’t that obvious? BAKA!” Flannere taunted. “Ugh! Stop taunting me! Go on that side to block Furfrou’s path, and I’ll go get him.” Xerione sighed, running at the Furfrou. “Eeeeeeeeeeeeeek!” The furfrou exclaimed, curling into a ball. “Are you okay?’ Xerione asked, kneeling down next to it. “I-I saw a ratata!” The furfrou barked. “It’s okay, you’re safe now. Your trainer is extremely worried about you!” Xerione exclaimed. “I’m ready to go back now.” Furfrou decided. “Okay! You can hang out with my pokemon while we walk back.” Xerione decided.


(After a bit of walking and gathering her partners…)


Xerione walked up to the girl. Kira was holding her hand. “I found your Furfrou!” Xerione exclaimed happily. The girl rushed over to her. “Oh my arceus! Xerione, thank you so much!” The girl cried, hugging her furfrou. “How can I ever repay you?” “Could you help me find something? It’s called the pokeflute.” Xerione asked. “Oh, the pokeflute! Yeah, I know where that is!” The girl rushed off, returning a few minutes later with a wooden flute in hand. There was a reed shaped like a pokeball at the top. “Here you go!” The girl handed the flute to Xerione. “Thanks!” Xerione called, zooming out of the palace.
