*Sekkou looked at teh pokemon that appeared. Stepping forward he looked down at the rock pokemon, also wondering what it was doing there. Lowering himself down to the pokemon's eye level he let out a low rumbled in his throat as if asking what it was doing there. All the while he kept checking to see how Willow was doing, non the less he kept both eyes on the Rhyhorn. His muscles tense as if on the end of a razor blade.*

A Vulpix slowly crept her way through the bushes at the very back of the Garden. She knew she wasn't supposed to be in there, seeing as though it was for the elderly Pokemon, but she couldn't help it! One thing you should no about Raynumi, is that you can't tell her she can't do something, because she'll go out of her way to prove you wrong--and that's exactly what she was doing now.
*flashback* As Kari and her team were advancing on their Journey through Tentou, the came across Wandering Gardens--a place for the elderly to rest.
Well, from time to time, Kari would let her Pokemon that could walk on land, walk along side her and get some fresh air. It was herself, Zutakoh, Sayorii, Oliver -the newest addition to her team- and of course, Raynumi.
"Whats over there Kari?" asked the Vulpix curiously.
"It's some place called Wandering Gardens. It's for the elderly so don't even think about it." Sighed the trainer.
"Awww...why not?" whinned Raynumi.
And this of course, got Oliver started up. "Yeah, why not? I wanna go check it out too!" THe young Bouysel exclaimed.
"You guys, no. Just c'mon."
With a sigh, Raynumi went on, but little did Kari know that Raynumi would be sneaking away to the Gardens the moment Kari looked away. "Hey Kari, can we take a rest now?" asked the Vulpix.
This, Kari agreed to. THey had been walking for three straight hours, and she decided that they all needed a break. "Alright." She said as she slowly sat on the smooth grass. THe rest of the team came over to her, and began to get situated. Even Sayorii was in a pretty good mood.
"Ahhh." Kari said contently as she lay back and closed her eyes.
This was her chance. Slowly, Raynumi crept away toward the Gradens, but sneaking away with her, was Oliver.
Bringing us to the current situation.

The Rhyhorn seemed uncaring about these two Fire Pokemon, he gave a grunt of dismissal and glanced only from his eye, before turning to eat some leaves and flowers.
Willow tilted her head to the side "I think he was just hungry, we could move somewhere else if you want." Smiling, her feet pressed to the earth gently making sure she didn't make the Pokemon angry. He didn't look like he would be mean, still you never could be sure about things like that.
Stepping to the side and walking around him, letting Sekkou follow her a little just so as not to seem worried, Willow took a look around while she moved. There were a lot of flowers of different colours, and even some in her favorite, Orange. They looked so peaceful out here in the Garden's, undisturbed and free.
The wind blew and some pollen flew up her nose, making the Typhlosion sneeze. "*ACHOO*" She forgot that this time of year allergies were horrible.

*Straightening himself up, Sekkou watched the rock pokemon for a moment before collecting what was left of the apples and placed them on the ground for the Ryhorn. It wasn't like they would eat anymore, or at least he didn't think so anyways. Bowing gently to the pokemon he followed behind Willow, though a dark ear remained toward the old pokemon behind them.*
"I think that might be a good idea. Some pokemon prefer dining alone." He nodded before blinking as she sneezed. "Bless you." He offered before looking about at the flowers. "This is one of the best times of the year, when all these have bloomed." Sekkou nodded.
*The flames about his shoulders were a smolder as he didn't feel the need to have the fringe of flame to intimidate anyone, he was a lover, not a fighter. He had fought once and lost, not only the one he loved but his life in the process. For that he dared not truly love unless the one he wanted to love, had the same feelings. Loping forward, Sekkou severed the stem of a few flowers and offered them to Willow, at least for now he could be a friend...*

"I love when the flowers are out, but I do seem to sneeze quite often during. When I was young there was a field just aways from the house I lived in. I was a run in my litter...but that doesn't matter. In any case, the field held Marigold's and I always wanted to just run in them and smell the pollen. Unfortunately my allergies were bad at that age."
The Fire Pokemon took the flowers offered to her and felt happy by this. "Thank you!" Willow sat down and just enjoyed the beauty for a while. Then she wondered, about Sekkou and how it was he came to be here. She didn't wish to be rude, so Willow just glanced at him in contemplation.

*A smile spread across his dark face as she seemed happy by the flowers that he had offered her. Standing still he listened to her mention that she had allergies and that she loved certain flowers when she was little. He hadn't known many flowers when he was little. He was born upon a farm and they grew many things, mostly to eat, but the Misses had a small garden... But it was a vague memory.*
"I'm sure my owners had a garden by the farm house, but I don't remember it. The farm was always a busy place, always work work work." He sighed looking out over the open gardens. "I was born into work, mainly helping keeping the fires lit but it was a way of keeping a home." He went silent again, not wanting to bore her with his past life, one he barely remembered but vague images.

"Was it lonely...or did you have friends?" Willow couldn't help but recall her own empty life, the abuse her 'owner' had bestowed upon her until she'd become a Quilava. How her siblings were sold, her parents gone...a very sad tale. She didn't want to feel sorry for herself because now there were friends who cared, family who loved her. Even if they weren't real family, she considered them so.
"Please don't stop, I like to hear about you, if it's difficult or you wish not to tell me that is fine though. I understand." Willow tried to smile at him, hoping it wasn't so forward, her request.

"I had my boy, and that was all I had hen I was growing up, but soon he left and left me behind to help his parents. They said that my boy went off to something called school. So that he could learn more then a farmer could teach." Sekkou shrugged as he turned his face toward the skies. "The boy came back all different, he was happy to see me, but he wasn't the same. We didn't play like we had before he left. But life went on at the farm."
*He paused again as he let his mind fall back into the time of his family, his human family. He never knew his birth family, nor of his parents. Shaking his head. Sekkou only looked at the skies as if they held answered for him, but all that was there were the clouds and occasional bird. All seemed peaceful in the gardens, too peaceful for some that still had a fighter's spirit within them.*

*Zander much taller from the last time we saw him walked into a garden heavily bushed on each side. Each push contained flowers or all shapes and colors. To his side was Belu who preferred to walk next to Zander like he did as a young in even though he was much older. Both walked along the dirt path absorbing the warmth of the sun and the smell of the natural garden.*

Willow smiled at the memory Sekkou told her. It was sad but still sounded like he had a good past too, well for the most part. Granted she knew nothing of him and only what he spoke of, but from her own experiances she at least could tell his happy memory of the boy no matter how it changes would be there in his heart.

But it all wasn't to be, When I was a Quilava I was sold so that the humans could keep their farm. The boy did all the business, he didn't even cry when I was taken away, only waved and turned his back to my pleas. I regretted liking him, if he was going to turn out that way." Sekkou frowned as he went on. "The new place was different, a breeding facility of sorts where there were many other pokemon, there was only one other of my, our kind there. Her name was Willow Bark, because that was all that she could eat. We got along alright, Grew to be Typhlosions and still we worked hard at the place. Before..."
Sekkou stopped and dropped his gaze toward the ground. This was the part he hated about his past. The fight between himself and a rival male who in the end stole Willow Bark from him, and all the other problems that lead to his demise in the end. Shaking his head, he didn't think she needed to hear every detail of the gruesome fight with both the pokemon and the humans that tried separating them.

Willow listened with all her heart and felt sad for Sekkou, it sounded so awful for him to have been through these things. For her, it was though she never knew kidness at first and so when her fate was dealt, she accepted it. Until her trainer came along and saved her, Willows salvation.
"I'm sorry. It's not right that someone like you should have been hurt like that." Thinking back to what he'd said, she picked up on the name he had used. "So, you knew someone else with my name?" What were the odds...maybe thats why he was talking to her. Looking away she didn't want him to see her sad.

His dark ears gave a twitch as he noticed the sounds of sadness within her words. Though he couldn't tell if they were meant for him, of just a feeling that she had remembering her own horrific past. Sekkou shook his head as he stood and ambled over closer to Willow and tried, but unsuccessfully, wrap his arms around her in a somewhat warm embrace. True he did stink of grave soil and decay, but it didn't seem too important at the moment.
"Yes, I knew someone with a name like yours. She was beautiful, like you are." He smiled, though merely sat there, hold her gently. "But she was stolen from my by another who was possessive or something. Jealous I would call it, but that was years ago." Turning his head to the side a little he watched Willow silently. "I don't know what happened to you to gain such scars as you have shown me briefly, but the don't hinder the young spirited life I see before me."
Sekkou was a charmer when he wanted to be and a fierce protector other times. He didn't much care what happened in her past nor in his own. They were the past to his eyes, even if the black tear stains still marked the corners of his eyes from when he wept so much before his passing. He didn't care about that right now, he had a new meaning, he was a protector, dead or living he would do what he could to help anything that needed it. At the moment, his barred heart pounded to a new beat and he felt the need to protect Willow from whatever scared her most...
