I was a little too involved with the HM to notice that mystery pokemon actually teleport with us for some reason. I do, however, snap out of that as soon as Celes bursts through the doors, looking sweaty and tired for some reason. "Sheesh, what happened to you?" I ask Celes. I then add "Well, either way, I think we should take on a dungeon, today... um, I got this new HM, and I think I might be able to find a way to use it," at that, I started to head out of the guild, HM in hand. I then stop, as I notice nobody else coming with me. "So... is the rest of my team ready to take on a mystery dungeon? It's a water-type area, so we should be fine," I then say as I wait for the rest of my team... wait... where was Kamina? Normally, he'd be the first pokemon to run, or, rather splash the heck out of the guild to get to this new dungeon. [i]Maybe he's already there? After all, he IS a water type, and probably just capable of living there.[/i] I think as I somewhat impatiently await responses from the rest of my team, that is, excluding Kamina. My thoughts raced as I remembered the dungeon, itself. According to Vine, manaphy actually existed, and he, or it, lived right at the bottom of that trench... the very same one that I was going to head down. Oh, there was also a group of phione that apparently watched over manaphy when he was an egg, or something... but... I wasn't all too excited to see one of those. Of course... the fact that it's a dungeon means that we might just have to fight manaphy... I really hoped we didn't have to, but, let's be honest, we're pretty well prepared for a fight with manaphy.

I watch and jump back as William picks up Leo by the cheeks, and starts asking Leo a bunch of questions. Leo answers with "Well, um, I had ta! My ma's the worst. She says that I can't have that awesome flamethrower Tm, and makes me do chores when I run off... er.... like this..." I then shake my head, and say "Trust me, she's not the worst. She's not even close to the worst. I should know be-" I catch myself mid-sentence and shut up before I reveal anything about myself. Samson, who was apparently following us, asks, somewhat quietly "Uh... does this mean I can go back home?" Leo backs up a bit, and out of nowhere, a bunch of wild pokemon, at least two natu, three mareep, and two litleo jump out of the bushes and surround our little group. "We've got you now, traitor!" One of the natu shouts at me... odd that some of the wild pokemon can speak, and some can't, but I was more worried about what he said... this, of course, means that they were all going to attack us. I decide to get the first attack in, and try to use Pound, however, I end up using some other move, one that was fulled by my hatred for my father... I used frustration. Somehow, and this is another thing that surprised me, the move actually seemed to deal even more damage than I was expecting... as if it wasn't a normal-type move... but what would super-effect a natu, and make sense for frustration's type? Either way, I ended up taking a couple thundershocks, and a peck before Leo used ember on the natu who attacked me, Samson decided to use work up, and Mike used thundershock on the natu that supposedly started this whole ambush, finishing it off.

Matt explained how there was a large crowd, and, of course, I believed him, given that we were leaving Scale City. Terra, however, said "What an excuse... well, at least you didn't take all day. Let's get going, alright?" I nodded, and the two of us started heading up the mountain, only to almost instantly run into a wild dratini who used twister on me... only to not really do that much, thanks in part to my new helmet. I then retaliate with tackle, my only semi-effective move in this case. Yeah, I was good with the whole 'defense' thing here, but I can't really attack the enemies very well. Terra then took Blaze out of her bag for a moment, and attacked the dratini with some weird move apparently called 'Play Rough', finishing off the snakelike dragon pokemon. "Well... that was quick," I comment before we move on, with Blaze jumping back into Terra's backpack. Terra didn't say a word and continued up the mountain, with me following. Soon enough, we encountered a cliff, or, really just a big hole separating us from our next possible destination. Oddly enough, there appeared to be withered and useless vines connecting the two sides, as if someone has already been here... but, given the condition of the vines, it would have to have been years since they've been here, that is, whoever it was. Obviously, whoever it was was a grass type, else they wouldn't have access to vine whip, which is what the makeshift and now broken bridge appeared to be made out of. Of course, I didn't need to use the bridge because I could stick to the walls. I simply walked across the wall to the other side, and then wondered how I was going to get the others over here.... every single one of them was taller and heavier than I was, even Blaze.
