[Spruce]

I was going to say something about M calling someone who was alive 'dead', but he then admitted that he was 'just kidding', and headed up to the surface before I could say anything. I then turned towards Celes, who was knocked out, and Vine, who was knocked out as well... and possibly even dea... no, no, he's still alive, he has to be. I then hear someone approaching us, and turn to see a lopunny, a medicham, and a gardevior, all in a bubble just like ours. The three seemed tougher than they looked, and once they got to us, the lopunny asked me "What happened here?" I start to answer, "Well, you see Vine-" I was cut off, however, by the gardevior saying "Vine must have gotten himself knocked out trying to protect you from some giant monster, right?" I shake my head 'no', but the medicham, apparently ignoring me, adds "Of course that's what happened! What else could it have been?" I try to say something, but the lopunny, before I could even say anything, says "Don't worry, kid, we always keep an extra reviver seed just in case this kind of thing happens, we'll have him up and ready to fight again in no time," I try to stop her from giving the seed to Vine, however, she simply jumps over me, and puts the seed right in his mouth... it didn't take long for the seed's effects to take hold, and revive Vine. "Ugh... wha happen?" Vine asked, apparently confused. His colors didn't change one bit, but at least he sounded like himself, again. I was going to say something, but, I couldn't, for some reason. "Spruce...? How'd you get here? Where is here? And... why are you grey?" He asked me, one question after another without any time to answer in between them. I then answered "Um... in that order, yes, it's me, a Dive HM, we're at the bottom of the ocean near Treasure Town, and... that last one's kind of a long story," Vine then looked over to Celes, and checked his bag, apparently for a reviver seed, but, he didn't find anything, this much was apparent due to the next thing he said "I'm sorry, but I don't have anything for her right now. Maybe you should just head back to the guild," with that, Vine walked away with the odd trio of somehow familiar pokemon, leaving Celes and I alone under the ocean.

The mystery pokemon who was just beyond the torch's light didn't seem to answer to anything Josh and Hex said, unfortunately. I, however, had more important things to do, such as... um... countering another tackle from that other goomy, I guess. Terra sat down, and Blaze started asking her to help us out, however, she didn't listen to him at all, and just shook her head whenever he asked her to help. The two dratini both decided to attack Hex, and both attacked with twister, hoping to slam her into a wall, or something. Out of nowhere, an orange beak came out of the shadows, and whatever it was attached to used peck on one of the dratini, though, it didn't seem to do nearly as much as pursuit did, I could only assume that this was the mystery pokemon. [i]Wait... wasn't there a murkrow in this mess, before? Wouldn't a murkrow know peck and possibly pursuit? Hmm...[/i] I think as the goomy finally uses something other than tacke with... bubble. I almost didn't even realize that was supposed to be an attack, and tried to use absorb, but it didn't seem to really do all that much, unfortunately. It didn't seem as though either myself or the other goomy were really going to gain much ground until another attack from the darkness, this time an astonish on the other goomy, making him flinch, and giving me an opportunity to use tackle on him, and finally knocking him out.
