Nobu was quiet for a moment, sensing Indigo's distress. "Well now, I bet your pokemon are tired. Say, why don't you all have your pokemon rest before you explore the temple grounds?"

There were a few looks of consideration between the three teenagers. Did they really need a rest? Sure, Indigo just battled, but the other two hadn't. They had just got off a cushy ride in the sky. 

Before they could discuss anything, Zvi answered for them, [b]"Of course!"[/b] He then turned to the rest of the group. [b]"Old man Nobu doesn't invite people over to his place often. You guys are lucky!"[/b]

[b]"Stop it Zvi. It's not big deal. Plus it's on the way to the temple."[/b]

[b]"Yeah, for now."[/b] Zvi muttered. 

Nobu ignored Zvi's side comment, or maybe he couldn't hear it due to old age. [b]"I have a pot of stew brewing. No Pokemon harmed in the making, I assure you."[/b] The old man's smile could still almost be called a frown, but the sincerity of his words shined through. 

After little discussion, everyone agreed. It wouldn't hurt to have something to eat. And so, they began their walk through the forest, Zvi's Drampa electing to stay behind for a nap. They would walk less than fifteen minutes before they came upon the stone hut. A delicious smell came from its chimney...
