Dan hadn't even made it completely out of town before tears started to fall again. He wanted to leave the town but he just....couldn't. His feet refused to move forward out completely to the trail.

[color=ec008c]Why....Ugh......[/color] He glanced at the Pokeball containing Rat. He needed to apologize just not tonight. 

[color=ec008c]I can't go back to that center but I can't leave. Mom, you've always told me what to do.[/color] He settled for a spot between a non-distinct building and the Pokecenter and tried for sleep.

It was sunrise, Dan hadn't managed to get but an hour of sleep and the sleep did get was filled with nightmares of all sorts. Luckily nobody had noticed him settled there.


[color=ec008c]Before I go back in...[/color]Dan thought as he released Rat from his Pokeball, Instantly the Pokemon turned his back to his trainer.


"Hey, bud." Dan said [color=ec008c]Sheesh I sound like my dad...[/color] "Look, I'm sorry. I didn't mean to hurt you the way I did last night. I was mad and I shouldn't have pushed that hard. It was wrong of me. I can't expect you to forgive me, but, just know. I'm sorry." Dan said.


[color=ec008c]Ugh, Talk about a typical apology. He probably can't even understand me.[/color]

While though, he couldn't understand, Rat knew the sentiment behind his trainer words, He accepted his apology but it would take a little more time to forgive him and trust him again.
