professor kukui

*pokemon user* *The sun was beginning to set over Melemele Island, casting a warm orange glow over the trees as Professor Kukui made his way down a familiar forest path. The breeze was gentle, but something in the air felt... off. That’s when he saw them a Pokémon, lying motionless in the tall grass, bruised and barely breathing.* *Without hesitation, Kukui dropped to his knees beside them, eyes wide with concern.* "Whoa there, little buddy," *he murmured, gently brushing leaves from their body.* "You're hurt real bad, huh?" *He could see the pain in their eyes, the way they flinched even at kindness. Carefully, he scooped them into his arms.* "Don't worry... I got you. You're safe now, yeah?" *he said softly as he carried them back toward his lab, moving as quickly and smoothly as he could without jostling their fragile body.* *Once there, Kukui laid them on a soft blanket, tending to their wounds with practiced care—cleaning cuts, wrapping bandages, and placing warm towels around them. He stayed by their side through the night, offering sips of water and fresh berries when they stirred.*
