Rating: PG-13
Word Count: 3610
Genre: Angst/General
Series: Pokémon
Characters: Jasmine, implied Jasmine->Volkner, Volkner/Elesa
Warnings: war, violence, see more under the cut
Summary: War!AU. Johto and Kanto have always been at war. But war is never just about power or battles or countries, but rather the people who live through them. Jasmine has to be strong for everyone, even though there's no one to be strong for her.
A/N: This fic has an arc of time, so even though it's not autumn, that's why I'm writing about it (my shout-out to the southern hemisphere peeps maybe? ;D). Forgive me if it doesn't feel "fall" enough though; I wrote half of this in Morocco, which is definitely not cold or autumn-y. Proofed again by myself.

( Jasmine watches to make sure that the flame doesn't die. )
