## **Physical Appearance**

Amber is large and stocky for a Zeraora, but also deceptively muscular. She has long limbs, bright, piercing yellow eyes, and a very long, winding tail replacing the back ponytail on most Zeraora. Her yellow underfur is as thick as her overcoat, which is mostly amber (a light yellowish-orange color), hence her name. Her ears, lower legs and arms, chest and leg markings, and head tuft are black. She has black bands on her tail, black stripes on her back and upper limbs, and six black whiskers. Two yellow zigzagging stripes are present on her lower forearms, and she has white claws. She initially wears a black collar, but later discards it and gains several battle scars.

### **Chapter 20**

Amber, while working with the imprisoned other ninja Pokémon, notices the guards shooting glances at her. She continues digging the trench she's in, along with Miley the Heliolisk, Robin the Toxtricity, Greta the Dracozolt, and Menace the Morpeko, whom she befriended earlier on. Amber whispers to her friends, devising a diversion plan to distract the guards long enough so they can escape. Miley asks if it'll work, to which Amber reassures her it will. The Zeraora then throws a rock she picked up while digging into the distance, causing it to clatter.

The noise attracts the guards' attention, and they call out, asking who's there. Amber throws another rock, and the clattering it makes prompts the guards to discuss who should investigate it. Seeing that they're distracted, Amber and her friends make a run for it. However, the sound of their chains rattling alerts the guards, who pursue them, calling for reinforcements and releasing Ground-type guard Pokémon. Amber and the others keep running through the woods with the guards on their trail and soon approach an oncoming pick-up truck. The five Electric-types stop at the side of the road and wait for the truck to pass, then jump into the back and escape their pursuers. Miley, Greta, Menace, and Robin happily congratulate Amber for her successful plan. They wait until the truck passes the entrance to Tsunade's home village and hop off.

The group heads into the village in search of shackle keys to remove their chains while avoiding Tsunade and the other ninja prowling around. They walk onto the main road, and Amber remembers the way to Tsunade's house. She relays this to her friends and reveals that Tsunade is the ninja police chief who held her captive. They head to Tsunade's house, and Amber uses one of her claws as a key to unlock the front door. They sneak inside and begin looking for the keys, which Amber quickly finds on the wall of her office. She uses them to get everyone's chains off, and they hide the chains in the basement. Just as they're about to head back upstairs, Amber spots Tsunade approaching through the window and warns her friends. They all hide under a large table as Tsunade enters the house. Hearing her footsteps above them, Amber unlocks the nearest window, holds it up, and climbs out. She hisses to her friends to come on and helps them out one by one before they all run off.

Unbeknownst to the quintet, Tsunade sees them escaping and runs after them, screaming Amber's name. Several ninja follow her in her pursuit, and the five Pokémon run faster, soon leaving the village. The chase continues out of the village, down the dirt road, and onto a large meadow. The ninja soon begin throwing weapons and shooting at the Pokémon, who panic and run faster. A train horn blows, and Amber sees a train with several open box cars passing them. She tells her friends to head for the tracks. They flee toward the train's box cars and quickly reach one, running alongside it. Greta tells Amber to hop on, which she does, and the Zeraora helps Greta on. Greta, in turn, helps Robin, who helps Miley, who then helps Menace, and they revel in their successful escape. They look out the side of the car and watch in triumph as Tsunade and her men shrink in their view and ultimately disappear. The five friends cheer and hug each other. They soon sit down to catch their breath and ride in the box car until it reaches a rail yard, then hop out and continue traveling together.

## **Personality**

In her youth and growing up, Amber was very intelligent, courageous, loyal, determined, and skilled in battle; however, she was also more sensitive, leading her to stress out quite easily. She tended to be impulsive, reckless, stubborn, a little arrogant, and often spoke her mind, which got her into trouble on several occasions. She would sometimes plan things out, but preferred rushing headlong into battle for the sheer thrill of it. She became more emotionally unstable after she was traded to Tsunade, a warrior and healer in a ninja village, and forced to go on missions, and even more so after the death of her first best friend Layla. As a result of both this and Tsunade's harsh training, Amber underwent a drastic personality change, becoming a quiet, calm, collected warrior. However, she and Tsunade would often clash due to their different characteristics. A year later, Amber had grown tired of fighting and instead began seeking ways to end the constant bloodshed; this led to her old persona resurfacing, though she retained her new traits as well. Through experience, Amber became wise enough to be able to choose her own path, and was willing to take extraordinary measures to regain her freedom. She later became more mature and proved herself capable of leading her own Clan.
