She felt the presence getting closer. It had suddenly turned the tables, instead of Sabrina pursuing the abnormality it was after her!
Beads of sweat formed at the tip of her brow. She put up a quick mental block, attempting to stave off whatever it was. She felt that the thing's intentions weren't aggressive, but it desperately wanted to be with her for some reason. Putting all her strength into the mental block, Sabrina focused primarily on maintaining it.
Then it was gone.
While she had been busy forming the block, she had completely lost track of it. It had simply vanished as if it never was there. Cautiously lowering the mental block, Sabrina briefly scanned the area for any signs of the lonely emitter. There was nothing.
Then something nudged her in the back.
Yelping slightly, Sabrina's eyes shot wide open and she jumped five feet into the air.
"Mr.Mime?" Asked a goofy voice.
Sabrina landed hard on her bottom. Breathing heavily, she saw immediately what it was that had bumped into her. It was one of her Pokemon, Mr.Mime, who had been cleaning the room. He must have accidentally tapped her with his broom while sweeping around her.
"You...scared me..." She whispered, in her usual monotone voice. Her heart was still going fifty beats a second.
"Mime!" Bowed the Mr.Mime as if he were apologizing.
"It's alright...Just be a little more careful when cleaning, okay?"
"Mime!" He replied as he stumbled out of the room, clattering into a nearby vase directly outside in the hall. There was a crash followed by a smash and more shouts of "Mr.Mime!". Sabrina could only guess what had happened. If she had the capacity to, she'd probably have started to giggle.
But instead she paused to recollect her thoughts, trying to piece together what had happened during meditation. Where ever that strange presence went, it was long gone now. It certainly hadn't come from any of her Pokemon, nor her Mr.Mime who had broken up the tension a great deal. It was foreign and yet so familiar at the same time. Sabrina recalled her dream. They couldn't have been collected, could they?
A tap at the window snapped her back to reality.
There was a Pidgey in the frame with some kind of letter tied to its legs. Standing up, Sabrina opened the window and the bird Pokemon flew, nestling on her shoulders. It stared at her intently, as if it were impatient to deliver the message and be on its way.
"Something for me?" Sabrina asked, carefully slipping the note of the Pidgey's legs.
