[Spruce] Celes handed me a bowl of soup... which seemed to look familiar, somehow. I then tried it, and it tasted extremely familiar. It also had that unmistakable energizing quality about it. I noticed some black and white cloth from the corner of my eye while I was chugging the soup, and while M was shouting in pain as if someone had attacked him rather than fed him. [i]So she was Shadowlight? Weird, why did she sound like a man back there?[/i] I think as I finish my soup, and get back up ready to continue onwards. I then decide to mess around "Hey, Shadowlight, have you seen Celes anywhere?" I ask Celes before continuing on, and taking in more of the sights that the ocean floor had to offer. I soon ran into someone else... a sneasel who was accompanied by a zubat and a koffing... wait, I knew these idiots. "Sean!" The sneasel starts off, as though we've never met. The zubat then adds "Bart!" With the koffing saying "And me... um... Carl!" Sean then finished with "We're Team Zan, and we're unbeatable when we..." he then looks right at me, and flinches, with Carl asking "Uh... isn't that the squirt that stomped us back at Birchwood Forest?" Sean then shakily says "Y-y-yeah... we can't run, though, we've already made our entrance, we'd look like cowards if we ran," I then look back towards Celes and M, and Bart adds "Sean, he's even got friends this time! We have to get out of here," Sean shakes his head, and says "No, we, of Team Zan never run from a fight, no matter how difficult it is!" He then attacks me with scratch, which seemed weaker than the last time he used it. I held in my laughter, and decided to wait for the others to attack... and both of them did, with tackle. Of course, I couldn't even really tell if they were attacking or not, so I just waited for the rest of my team to get here. --- [Anthony] I was amazed that these pokemon were even able to build a camp, let alone a fairly decent one to hide away from Zane. Josh introduced us to the entire camp, and I said hello to everyone, explaining how I led Zane's small army over to Beach Cave, and tried to stay interested as I had to repeat my introduction every time Josh introduced me to another camp member. Then, Brace happened. He seemed so sure of himself, and he seemed to not trust anyone in Josh's party... that is, including Josh. As soon as he said that he couldn't trust me, I said "Well, I wouldn't tell anyone, no matter what. Josh here told me about Zane, and what he's doing is completely wrong. He shouldn't get away with this, and I've made it a personal mission of mine to turn him in to the authorities... as soon as I get strong enough to actually beat him," I didn't care if Brace believed me, because at least I knew it was true, of course, the way I said it may have gotten others to believe in the truth, as well... particularly Josh, though, I was sure he trusted me to begin with. At that point, I kinda remembered something... "Oh, um, Josh, we kinda have something to take care of... I'd rather Terra not explode in anger from us keeping her waiting for so long," I then whisper to Josh, remembering the reason why we were even able to get over here. I then looked around for any spare wood planks that we might be able to construct a bridge out of for Terra... even if I didn't feel all to welcome here thanks to Brace. --- [Bonnie] "Well, I think we should go on a mission, I mean, after sleepyhead wakes up," I respond to William who seemed torn as to whether we should go on this mission or not. Samuel fell asleep, and while the view was hypnotic, I felt as though we should be out and about doing things instead of just sitting here. Yeah, today wasn't all that great thanks to that horrible dream, but the best way to get that out of my head that I could think of was heading off on a mission and possibly getting into some danger... at least that way I'd be focused on that danger and forget about the imaginary danger that my dream presented to me. I then looked at the mission, and headed off to Birchwood Forest, or, at least, where I thought that place was. I never really ventured out of my house before running away, and couldn't thanks to my dad always blocking the way, and then knocking me out with his slash attack, so, I had to guess at where this forest was, and if this wasn't the right direction, I was sure that my teammates would correct me... I just hoped that this wouldn't blow my 'wild pokemon' cover. Maybe I'll just say that I have a bad sense of direction, or that I never left Sunswept Plains until I joined the guild. The second part was kinda true, but it wasn't the actual reason as to why I was most likely heading in the wrong direction. They'd believe me right? After all, I've given them no reason not to believe me... I haven't lied to them, or, more accurately, they haven't caught me lying to them yet.
