Ryuu gulped uncomfortably as Lucy continued to drag him forward to whereever it was she was taking him. Even though the sun was still up in the sky, winter time made it stand low and the thick foliage let through less and less light an the party moved further into the forest. Ryuu looked around with shifty eyes as if expecting something to jump out to him, making Scarlette who could feel the boy's anxiousness walk closer to him. He laughed hollowly, looking down at the growlithe. "It's alright, girl. We'll find that little pokémon soon enough and we'll be back home at the farm before we know it." Atlas, who had moved to his other side, couldn't help but think, the trainer was still trying to convince himself of that. Behind them, Shi sighed, embarassed at her trainer's behavior. And he was supossed to be a ranger? Sure, she had to admit, that he cared alright, but he was just so easilly spooked. Sometimes he'd jump even from the wind blowing some leaves past his feet. It made her sometimes wish she had a cooler trainer. She shook her head as they moved on.

They continued on for a while, Ryuu getting more nervous with the second. Looking on ahead, the forest turned pitch black. The foilage so thick that it didn't let through any light , not even when the sun would have been at it's highest. It'd be pretty bad if they'd need to go there. Bad things probably lurked into it's shadows. Not that it mattered, he didn't know how long they had been walking, but the sun was sinking for sure and once they'd be submerged into the night... He kicked a pebble trying to divert his thoughts. He was somwhat amused when Claire went after it and brought the little stone back. He patted her head. Always so playfull. "Not now, Claire, we got to find that little pokémon," he replied softly, taking the pebble from her mouth and slipping it in his jack pocket, not caring about the saliva that now probably covered the inside of his pocket. It was then Atlas made a sound.

He had been the first to hear it. A sniffle in the distance. He perked his ears trying to locate it's origin, flicking them from side to side. Then Scarlete heard it too, meeting the growlithe's eyes, he let out a sort of bark, trying to get the human's attention. It worked and the party stopped. Indeed there in the distance, Lucy could here it now too and she took the lead again, thinking that was as it should be. Shi looked less then pleased by this, but Ryuu followed as the eevee/pumpkaboo ran towards the noise, so do did the rest. The black haired trainer had no idea what was going on, but trusted the pokémon knew. When Lucy froze, everyone halted, the forest fell silent again as opposed to before with the many sounds that came with paw, claws and feet hitting the ground and ragged breathing filling the air. And Ryuu could hear it know, aside from hid heart beating in his ears, the sniffling that came from nearby. Scarlette sniffed. One of the odd pair was nearby. Again Ryuu was informed of where they were heading by nudges against his leg and a lot of gesturing. Well, that and Lucy still thought dragging him by his pant's leg was the way too go. He didn't need a lot of convincing this time around. The closer they got, the quicker he went. Lucy's tail casting an earie light on their path. Yeah, he would have preferred Shi and her warm flame tail in front.

Soon enough they spotted a little pink dot, huddled up between the roots of an old three, that stuck out of the ground. It was the plusle. Ryuu coughed, making his presence know and it jumped, quicky looking up, clearly spooked by his sudden appearance. He crouched and smiled, speaking softly. "Hey, it alright. I only am here to help." He extended his hand, but made no move forward. Curious eyes gathered around him, the pokémon in the party wanting to catch a glimpse of this mystery pokémon. "We all are."

The plusle slowly came closer, carefully eyeing the hand and others. When she seemed convinced it was alright, she also slowly extended her paw, fleetingly touching Ryuu's hand before covering her face with both paws. Ryuu's smile widened. "See all alright. We came looking for you to see what happened with your friend earlier. Did you two fight?" The qestion seemed to upset the plusle. She bowed her head, glancing away. Setting himself down, he asked: "Do you feel sorry for figting? Do you want to make up." It took a couple of seconds, but eventually she nodded before starting a whole explanation, gesturing wildly. Ryuu just sat and listening, nodding now and then even though he had no clue what she was saying. It must have been interesting though 'cause Claire came and laid her head on his knee to listen. Ryuu blinked when the rambling suddenly stopped and the plusle looked at him expectantly. Looking around he sawthe rest of the party was nodding. What were they agreeing on? He wanted to ask, but...

A scream filled the air making Ryuu flinch. What was that?! The sound made his hairs in his neck stand on end and he saw even Shi was looking around in a starteled fashion. The plusle seemed panicked and he wanted to calm it. "It's alright, it was probably-" but he was cit short as the plusle kept shaking her head, pulling on his hand and pointing wildly. Something was off. It was atlas who pushed his legs from behind, making him snap out of his internal panicking. It was Claire that sprung forward this time. The plusle was nearly in tears and was still pointing. It finally dawned on Ryuu. "Your friend," he let out in a whisper.  And then they all ran.
