When Justine finally arrived at Agate, she was overcome with a feeling of exhaustion as she dismounted from the hover-cycle. Today had been a long day and she realised she had never gotten that rest she had been promised when she had followed Cail and Keiten to Fateen's. "There better be somewhere I can hit the hay for the night here," she muttered wearily before taking both of the Pokeballs from her belt and relasing her Pokemon from them. Both Jasper and Coral materialised in front of her and Jasper immediately gave her trainer a snal.

"I know, I know," Justine said. "Look, I'm sorry."

Jasper turned away from Justine, clearly still upset.

[i]I hope none of the Shadow Pokemon we catch are this moody,[/i] Justine thought to herself with a sigh before turning to Coral. For once, he wasn't meditating but was instead standing up and seemingly alert, staring in all directions around him as if searching for something... or someone. "Huh? Are you okay, Cor?" Justine asked, noting her Pokemon's unusual behaviour. Even Jasper stopped her strop at this point to examine Coral.

"[i]Guuur gura ra?[/i]" Jasper asked the Meditite in her usual gruff, unintelligible voice.

Coral looked over at Jasper before pointing to his right, indicating there was something over there of extreme interest. Both Jasper and Justine looked but couldn't see anything.

"I don't get it," Justine said, genuinely confused. "What is-" But before she could even finish her question, Coral had already started running in the direction he had indicated. "Huh? Hey, wait!" Justine called out. Both she and Jasper begun following the Meditite, having no idea what had made him act this way.
