I got lost.
How?
I've only gone to this Volcano Park once.
It's not my fault.Pua said he knew where it was; all he ended up doing is leading us around in circles.
Now, I have no idea where he is.
Everything is going swimmingly.
I can hear him.
Just barely.
But, I don't know where he is!"Are you lost?"
I whip around.
A Charizard.
Oh, please don't let this be him.
I take a step back, "N-no. I'm not. I'm fine."His eyes narrow, "You don't look fine."
He looks around, his eyes slowly scanning every inch of land behind me, "Say, you wouldn't have happened to see a Salazzle about yay tall...she's got a large white stripe running down her face? Because her and I need to have a talk."
I kneed my paws on the ground, "I...no. I've never heard of her."He groans, "I swear if she- UGH!" He takes off into the air without another word.
My heart won't stop pounding in my chest.
The only thing I could feel from him is anger.
No fear, just anger.Luckily for me, I don't have to worry about that; I have Kapua to do that for me.
Kapua and his random friend.
Aunt.
I think...
Is that how family works?Violet looks way too terrified.
What did Pua do?
Tell her what I was supposed to tell her?
Eh, wouldn't be all that bad.
I don't really want to break Violet's heart.Her fear is quickly replaced with happiness when she sees me, "Leafeon!"
Oh, she's so happy.
I guess I can add murderer and life destroyer to my list of accomplishments.
She dashes over to me and hugs me.
She won't let go.
I'm dying!She lets me go at the last second and smiles eagerly while I gasp for air.
"Where's Nightshade?"
Whelp, so much for breathing.
I look up at her and smile nervously.Alright, Leafeon, just keep cool. Don't say something stupid.
"She's....sleeping!"
Great!
Pua groans and throws his hat at me, "You had one job, mom! One job!"
Violet stares at him in confusion, "Why is she calling you that?"
"He! I'm a he!" Pua says rudely.
Jeez, what's wrong with him?Violet chuckles nervously and takes a step back only to trip on her tail.
She's a leader, right?
What kind of leader trips over her own tail!?
She quickly scrambles to get up.
When she sees me and Pua giving her strange looks she blushes in embarrassment, "Oh! Im sorry! I- I was j-..." She trails off thinking of excuses to make.
Wow.
No offense to her but, she's a terrible leader.
She's nice; way too nice.Her and Nightshade are very different.
If anything, Nightshade should've been leader, not her clumsy, nervous, sister who probably wouldn't hurt anyone.
Pua rolls his eyes and sighs, "Where's your home?"
Violet's eyes light up, "Oh! It's just over there!"
Really?
It was right in front of us!?
