Mewostic automatically moved closer to Absol, still not trusting the water, ans kept her senses up for anything.

Absol looked down on her and then the water before giving a chuckle, "Ironic." He said coldly before turning his attention to the deeper water.

"What's ironic?" Meowstic asked looking up at him.

"Nothing, the water I guess." Absol said absently. He walked forward and stuck his face in the water to see under it and spot their guide hopefully returning.

Meowstic was immediately at the edge with him, her ears open, showing her hidden eyes.

Looking down, the city down there seemed nicer then the huts above water, though not as nice as the cave above. There lake was also really really deep, sometimes only the lights in their windows visible in the deeper water. Polywhirl could be seen with a larger pokemon in tow. Large shell and long neck gave way to an adult Lapras. Absol pulled his head back above the water to give them room to approach.

Shortly after the two backed away, Polywhirl popped out of the water and landed beside them. A Lapras surfaced and she looked on the group. She had a kind face, though she was still a little worse for wear. Not as bad as Dewott, but still bandaged in many areas. Her shell clearly took the brunt of the attack, an entire spike broken off. "I'd heard you wanted to talk with me?" She asked the two, pulling herself out of the water a bit to rest on the shore.

"Whoever did this must be a really terrible pokemon." Meowstic thought to Absol. "You better talk to her, I didn't do a good job last time."

'Alright, at least justice will be served if it was Vaporeon.' Absol said, "Yes, we wanted you to recall the attack. Who attacked you?" "A vaporeon. He only appeared above the water for a minute before jumping in. I did my best to defend myself and was able to keep track of him because of his necklace. Even when he was invisible in the water, the necklace moved around with him." she recalled calmly. "And how do you know it was a guy?" "His voice. When I escaped above water, he yelled at me before jumping back into the lack. His voice was deep and raspy, like he had a sore throat."

"What did he yell at you?" Meowstic asked.

"He didn't say anything, he simply yelled. It was kind of unnerving, not a sound I've heard from any pokemon before. It was like he was possessed." Lapras explained. "What were you doing when he attacked that might have caused it?" Absol asked. "Nothing, I was just hanging out at the edge of the river a little downstream. Noone else was near me so I guess that's why I was a target." Lapras said.

"So the attack happened near here?" Meowstic asked. "Can you show us?"

"Well, not here here, but nearby. I can show you." Lapras said and slid back into the water. Her head popped up as she followed the lake side and continued down and river extending from its source. It was the same river they followed to get here. Absol followed along the riverside, watching the surroundings for signs of a battle.

After a while, the small group came to an area that had clearly seen a battle. There were broken trees, and most odd looking, a large imprint on the ground of Lapras' underside, presumably from a body slam. In the center was a hole that had filled with water. There was also still remnants of ice off to the side of the battlefield, likely from an Ice Beam, though it had mostly melted by now.

Meowstic looked at the scene of the battle. "This is almost as bad as our battles." She thought to Absol. "And this wasn't even a battle, but an attack."

Absol squinted his eyes as he looked over the field. something felt off to him. He decided not to bring it up, "Seems like the hard fight. It's good that you got out alive."

"Do you know from where he attacked you from?" Meowstic asked.

"Umm..." Lapras looked around, "I was swimming by, up to the city, when it jumped out of the trees and into the water. That's when the attack started." she said slowly and meticulously, so as not to miss anything.

"From the tree?" Meowstic asked. "What is that way?"

"Nothing. It's just dense forest until the next river over. There's not much for a couple miles around really." Lapras said.

"Alright, what attacks did Vaporeon use against you?" Absol asked. Lapras looked around, "Well... He started with Ice Beam and dove into the water. He came up underneath me and was able to knock me out of the water. On the way down, I flipped over and body slammed him into the ground there. When I got up, he jumped around bit and scratched me all over. He hit my back hard enough to break a spike and then I used Hydro Pump and knocked him back into the trees. That's when I dove into the water again. Right after that, he yelled and dove into the water again. I did my best to escape and it seemed he gave up after that, not coming to attack me again." she explained. Absol kept a straight face as he listened, the story mostly lining up with the aftermath they were looking at here. 'There's something inconsistent in that story. Meowstic, don't call her to question, I think I know what to do here.'

"Alright." Meowstic told Absol. "But there's something I find strange as well. I'm glad Lapras is alright, but this pokemon doesn't seem to be as strong as the guardian Espeon and Umbreon told us about. Do you think he's not using his full strength? Or maybe it's not the same Vaporeon."

'I think we're on the same track. Let's let Lapras go until tonight. We'll talk before then about our theories.' Absol said and turned to Lapras, "Thanks for telling us, I'm sure this was a hard experience for you. We'll see you tonight then? They might have caught the Vaporeon who did it." "Yes, I suppose. They'll want to talk to those attacked to verify the attacker and check the severity of his crime." Lapras said.

"Thank you very much." Meowstic also thanked the Lapras.

"Uh, yeah. Sure thing." Lapras said and slid back into the water and up stream to the town. "We're hungry. What's a good place to get some food?" Absol asked the Polywhirl. The Polywhirl scratched his head before pointing to the sky in an Aha! fashion. He started walking back into town the way they came.

"Yeah yeah, I think better when I'm eating." Absol said and rolled his eyes.
