**John, Ayero, Road to Hiden, with Claire, Corvianna, and Sindri**

John nodded to Claire, not trusting himself to speak as he was sure it would be something quite unpleasant. He was spared further deliberation on the matter by a giant floating blue whale that he easily recognized as Kyogre. Which meant the Lady with the wimpy looking vulpix was an Espada. And attractively interesting one at that, as she didn't talk or walk like nobility at all, but more like a stereotypical pirate. His fingers twicthed unconsciously, a psychotic smile spreading on his face, an insane look in his eyes, only for a split second before he returned to normal, on the outside at least. *'I can tell just from looking at her that she's a fighter, and a really good one at that. By Arceus, it's been awhile since I had a good duel. That match with the Groundon was a goid spar, but not what I need to sate my thirst. No for that I need blood, worthy blood, and that one eyed corsair has plenty of it.'* If it wasn't for the fact that Axia was in need of some medical help, he would have likely challanged the Espada to a duel. 

For now, he contented himself with being amused by her poorly hidden lusting for the Terrane, and the Terrane's inability to notice said lustings. He considered commenting on it, when Groudon broke that train of thought with his little temper tantrum, which quickly and impressively put to rest. She was definitely a woman that one did mot fuck with, even if one is a legendary god of the land. Itnwas then he noticed a man attempting to walk by, dressed as if he was expecting a sandstorm. Odd to say themleast, even stranger that one wouldn't gasp in awe at the legends before them. This immediately rulwd him out from being a simple wanderer, plus the fact that he had no pokemon. While this wasn't that uncommon, but it still seemed rather suspect to him how this mam seemed to be trying to avoid attention to himself. 

Walking up to the man, he placed a hand on his shoulder, keeping a strong grip on it as ge held a not so friendly smile on his face. "Why hello there friend, I couldn't help but notice you trying to remain unnoticed and avoiding us fellow travelers. You should know that there have been rumors of bandits and even worse, *Morphs*, stalking this road. I insist that you travel with us friend as I can tell by your garb that you are a long way from home." His tone, and the way his hand was creeping towards his mace, gave the feeling that refusal was a very unwise choice to make.

**Quazar, Ayero, High above the Road of Hiden**

Quazar breathed a sigh of relief as he saw Groudon's master reign him in befire hebstarted unneeded conflict. He knew he didn't have to worry about Kyogre, as he doubted she even remembered that far back, at least not consciously. Quazar had come here on a feeling the two would meet, and had prepped himself for battle, but it seemed like the human's had it under control. 'Speaking of humans, I wonder if Sebastian has found those children yet. I hope so, I won't be able to help him much in Ayero, not that he really needs it but still.' Quazar began to head in the direction of the forest in which he had left Sebastian last, appearingnto al. below as a hard to see lne of green in the sky

**Sebastian, Ayero, Ladyl Forest, with Aleida and Belle**

Sebastian stifled a few choice words he wanted to direct to the bird man as he flew off after their quarry. *'If I ever see that guy again after this, I'm probably going shoot an air into his ass. A barbed one, I want to hear him scream.'* Sebastian chuckled to hi self, thinking of his petty vengeance, as he followed Aleida, taking nite of her slightly favoring her non injured foit. Stupid chick,why the hell did she lie about her foot. Oh well, wasn't his problem of she wanted to get herself killed due to her own stubborness. When Belle came back without Seth, Sebastian walked up to her, snapping his fingers to gey-t her attention.

"Okay Belle, take us to your master so we can call this a day and get those kids back to their parents." *'If they aren't already bird feed that is.'*
