'No, I mean does the necklace point to her or are we still not near the key?' He asked again, figuring she must have forgotten amidst the violence.
"Whenever you're ready." Espeon told Goodra, "I'm going to go check on Umbreon." He added and started off in that direction.

"Oh! Of course." Meowstic said, who didn't forget about the necklace so much because of the confusion, but because of Vaporeon's presence. She took a hold of the necklace and concentrated.
Goodra slowly let go of Weavile who tried to wipe the goo off when she was free with little success. She didn't even look towards Espeon. Although she did look quite pleased with herself for being able to upset the two most steadfast members of the group so badly. "Why you'd think any pokemon could accept you with all this slime is beyond me." Goodra only looked at Weavile. The hurt showed, but she didn't say anything. "I'm going to wash off in the river." Weavile said walking off. "If I'm not back in a while, well, you'll all be very happy, especially Absol!" She called as she left.

The necklace pulled away from Vaporeon, pointing north and pulling like they were still far from the key. At least this Vaporeon didn't have it on her. "A guy can dream!" Absol called back, mostly out of impulse than with some actual goal in mind.
Off in the distance, Espeon found Umbreon resting in the hollow of a fallen tree. Not a natural hollow, but an area she'd hollowed out with her teeth and claws. Wood shavings and leaves were everywhere. "Umbreon?" Espeon asked, walking up to the tree and looking into the hollow. Umbreon had on a pouty face like a child, though Espeon knew this to be the face of actual anger, "Umbreon, you feeling a little better?" He asked, sitting down. Umbreon just huffed and rolled over, turning away from him, "Come on Umbreon, you know we need to talk through this. It's not good for you to be angry. It makes me sad." he said, resting his chin on the tree, "I hope you're not mad at me." He said. "I'm not." She responded short but quick. After a second Espeon reached his paw into the little hole and gently pet her ear, "And you shouldn't be mad at Weavile either. She's just trying to upset us both." He said and could feel Umbreon tense up at the mention of her name. She didn't say anything though, "Do you want me to come in there with you?" Espeon asked and Umbreon slowly shook her head no, "OK, I'll just wait out here." Espeon said and hopped on top of the tree and laid down, still looking down on Umbreon and lightly rubbing her back now. Umbreon slowly but surely simmered until she'd fallen asleep, all the while Espeon kept a vigilant eye on her and their surroundings.

"No the key isn't with her." Meowstic answered, more than a little confused and curious about it.
Goodra sighed and walked over to Vaporeon, sitting down next to her.
Weavile arrived at the river and walked to the edge of the water. She lifted up her cape that was covered in slime. "Ugh, stupid goo monster." She said before looking around her to make sure nobody was around, specially any of her new companions, before taking off the cloak and key inside it. Without her cloak her back was visible and covered in scars. It was impossible to say how many there were and what caused it, but her whole back was filled with them. She walked into the river and started washing her cloak before washing herself.

'Great, we're probably going to be delayed since we'll need to tend to that bump on her head.' Absol replied, only a little irritated. Not as much as one might expect though. "Goodra, you wouldn't happen to have any healing abilities, would you?" Absol asked, seemingly out of nowhere given the previous silence that had befallen the camp.

"My goo can help." Goodra told him. "But it's not much, it would be much better to use it with some herbs." Meowstic edged a little closer to Goodra and Vaporeon. "Are you alright?" Goodra asked Meowstic. "You seem a little distracted." "Yeah, I'm fine." Meowstic answered. "I'm just a little confused." She said, although there was much more bothering her than that, only Absol would have been able to see that however.

Absol sat quietly and watched Goodra and Meowstic. He looked in particular at Meowstic, though he spoke to Goodra, "Anything you can do to speed her healing would be appreciated." Absol said, not wanting to be stuck here long.

Goodra nodded and put some goo on Vaporeon's injuries. "I'll go look for some healing herbs or berries." She said, getting up after she was done. "That should be a lot more help to her."

Absol nodded, "Thanks." He said simple and laid down where he'd previously been sitting. Again, he turned his focus towards Meowstic, though his gaze was now fixed on Vaporeon still limp on the ground and breathing softly.

As Goodra left Meowstic moved away from Vaporeon and headed over to Absol, sitting down next to him.
Weavile finished up her bath and got out of the river, putting the wet, though clean, cape around her again.

"So. What's eating at you?" Absol asked, catching something was off, "You've been acting weird and overprotective since we got the Ice key."

"What do you mean? I've just been myself." Meowstic answered, feigning ignorance and doing a very bad job of it.

"Mhm, and I want to spend the rest of this trip with Weavile. I've known you long enough to know when you're upset about something and don't think I haven't noticed you're fear of water." Absol said confidently, sure he was on to something.

Meowstic sat quiet for a while before hugging her legs. "I'm scared. Vaporeon isn't like the other guardians we've faced. He... she almost drowned Umbreon. She pulled her into the water right next to me."

Absol looked down, "I see." He reached around and pulled Meowstic in close and rested his chin on top of her head, "That's a real reason to be scared." Absol said, "If anything, I should be worried about you."

Post by Bio Plus on Apr 11, 2016 22:10:41 GMT -5
Meowstic pushed herself tighter against Absol. "But I'm worried about you. And that's not the only thing scaring me. I don't understand Weavile. I know you're all angry at her and that it's her fault, but I don't know why Espeon and Umbreon was so angry at her that they became scary. And it looks like Goodra is hurt. And it's scary to think that Weavile doesn't care about anything. not even herself. I feel like such a child. So helpless and scared."

Absol nodded, "That's not a problem though. We all grow up in time, and sometimes it takes a childlike heart to keep scarred adults from doing stupid things. You just need to keep being you. You'll mature with time and you've got me and Goodra to help you for now."

"But what if something happens to you?" Meowstic asked. "What if I can't protect you?"

"That's why we go in together. And I won't go down in a fight. I'd sooner retreat. I plan to be a living legend." Absol said and squeezed Meowstic tight, "You'll be there for me like I'll be there for you right? And we're going to fight smart not hard, right?"

"Right." Meowstic nodded and hugged Absol back. Weavile entered the camp just as the conversation finished, which couldn't have been a coincidence, she must have been eavesdropping on them. It looked like something had ruffled her feathers and she scowled at Absol as she passed by before jumping in a tree and sitting down without a word.

Absol watched Weavile with his half-lidded expression as he held Meowstic close. When she hopped in the tree he closed his eyes and rested his chin on Meowstics head again.
OOC: Espeon and Umbreon will be out a while, not sure if you had something else you wanted to do. Vaporeon will awaken tonight after sundown.

ooc: Not in particular, nope.
Goodra arrived not long after with some herbs and smiled when she saw Absol and Meowstic together. She returned to Vaporeon's side to prepare the medicine.

OOC: I'll jump to tonight then.
BIC: The rest of the afternoon and evening was quiet and Absol got up repeatedly to stretch or just check the surroundings. It was mostly a habit at this point. Espeon was asleep now and Umbreon was watching him now. They were still at the Tree though.

Meowstic had also fallen asleep after one of Absol's checks. Goodra was still beside Vaporeon and Weavile was still in the tree, glancing down at them every now and then.

Absol returned and looked to Goodra with a nod and then Meowstic. Once sure they were fine, he glanced to Vaporeon and looked her over. He remembered again what Meowstic had said and thought about the power needed to almost take out Umbreon. He wouldn't say it out loud, but they were strong. And weather he admired it or thought it a nuisance. he couldn't tell or wouldn't say, but still he acknowledged their strength. He wondered if Vaporeon was actually strong enough. And weather this was even that vaporeon, found knocked out from some blow to the head. Surely she wasn't the evil pokemon that would drown another without a second look. He was broken from her thoughts when Vaporeon sneezed. It was small, almost cute, but it caught Absol off guard as he looked down on her. Vaporeon reached up and rubbed her nose, but otherwise didn't move or try to get up.

Goodra leaned forward. "She's waking up." She said softly.

Vapreon's ear twitched at Goodra's voice and her eye creeped open. She saw she was surrounded by unfamiliar faces and in an unfamiliar place and hopped up and back to the edge of the clearing kind of quickly, landing close to Meowstic, though it was unintentional. Her movement was also cut short as she fell over, her right side having fallen asleep on her and unable to hold her up. She looked dumbfounded as she tried to piece everything together and was otherwise very confused. She couldn't even find words and the sudden pain behind her head wasn't helping. Absol just looked at the scared and confused pokemon, becoming more and more sure that this couldn't be the dangerous Vaporeon Meowstic had mentioned with each passing moment.

"Calm down." Goodra said softly. "You hit your head. You really shouldn't be jumping around like that."

Vaporeon looked around wearily as the got herself up into a sitting position. She supported her tingly side with her tail while she reached around to the throbbing pain behind her head. She winced when she touched the bump which was still sore and looked up, still not sure what to make of the others, "Where am I?" She asked in a reserved, almost meek, voice, looking to Goodra. She still hadn't noticed Meowstic or Weavile and was watching Absol and Goodra. Absol just sat down, trying to appear less threatening and remained quiet otherwise.

All Weavile's attention had shifted to the new pokemon and was watching her closely while Meowstic was still fast asleep, tired out from the last few days events. "We're near the river where I found you." Goodra told Vaporeon. "You we're floating downstream unconscious. Do you remember what happened?"
