Once again, Matthew had to stop running to catch his breath. His Aron - who actually wasn't an Aron at all any more - stopped as well, but he didn't seem to need to suck in deep, desperate breaths like his trainer was. He wheezed a couple of times, sneezed (which sounded a bit like somebody dropping a sheet of metal on a hard floor) and started rubbing his armour against a nearby rock.

"I don't know why I kept this," Matt whined, rummaging around in his bag. He pulled out the 80lb lump of solid steel that Titan had shed before evolving, that he had kept because he was sure it would be worth something to someone, and it seemed a shame just to leave it in the park.

Titan had finished scratching himself against the side of the mountain and had left a sizeable dent in the rock, lumbering over to lap up some of the water that had collected in a puddle nearby. Matt copied by swigging away at his water bottle, and then sat down, sheltered by the walls of the mountain that spread out to create a shallow cave-like entrance.

"I guess we can stay here for the night," he said, and yawned. He curled up on the cold floor and then, on a lonely whim, released his other pokemon. Pyrite the Snorunt's stomach growled and he didn't look much happier when presented with a little Oran berry, but the little Deerling he'd picked up seemed delighted at it, and gulped down three. "You're healing up alright, aren't you?" he said softly, laying a hand on the little thing's head. He wasn't sure anymore if he wanted to release it back into the wild.

"Stop teleporting away from me! I don't care what game you think you're playing, this isn't funny any more!" Alisha groaned, attempting to climb up after Angel who kept on teleporting around, clearly still thinking that this was all just a game. The fact that she started dancing and spinning on one of the rocks just out of reach did help hint to that before she ended up slipping down the other side of it, though getting a little caught up when she saw the small group with Matt not too far off.

Alisha slowly climbed up after, looking a little exhausted chasing the psychic type up the mountain in the little 'game' before seeing the group.

"Oh no you don't..." she groaned but not clearly enough that Angel paid her any attention, teleporting to Matts side to hug him and help everyone be happy as she was. the facepalm that followed echoed out as a dull thud of metal on metal before Alisha followed after.

"Sorry about her..." she started slowly, seeming a little embarrassed about what had just happened.

"Ahhh!" Matt screamed as the little Kirlia bamfed behind him and had him a chokehold. He attempted to free himself of this vice-like death grip but to no avail. "Titan!" he said sadly. But it was his Deerling who leapt to his aid first, launching Leech Seeds towards the Kirlia's face.

Matt managed to wriggle free, standing up when he heard the voice, and looking around. Through the darkness he could see a figure approaching. "Oh, she's yours?" he asked, "Ok, yeah, sorry." He scratched his head with matching embarrassment and Titan clomped over to nibble on his leg a bit.

Angel yelped as she was attacked, quickly teleporting back away from the Deerling, hiding behind Alisha who sighed.

"See, this is what happens when you teleport off..." she said to her, before looking back to Matt. "Don't worry about it. Some point she'll learn not to run off and hug strangers, but apparently it might not be soon..." she mused, trying to seem a little more confident than she really was about being nearby.

"Now, Angel, say your sorry for butting in and scaring the nice mans pokémon." she said, looking down to her who simply leaned out from behind her legs, waving while trying not to be hit by any more low flying attacks by Dancer.

Matthew laughed when he saw the now innocent-looking little pokemon waving at him from behind his trainer's legs. "She's cute. Interesting colours. Did you rescue her from Umbra or something?"

He had very little knowledge of the organisation other than that they tended to have pokemon that looked weird. And this girl didn't seem particularly evil.

The Deerling looked at Angel embarrassedly, lowering his head as if to say sorry. "Uh, I'm Matt," he said, looking at his newest pokemon. "And this is... this is... Dancer. And he's sorry. And these two are Titan and Pyrite." The other two pokemon looked over to him in confusion, but when they realised they weren't being called they went back to whatever they were doing.

Alisha smiled once she worked out that all the hostility was all gone from the area, seeming glad that she wasn't under pressure to do much but relax for once with the new friend.

"No, I got her from Professor Redwood. She was my starter pokémon. Called her Angel, since it's what she's always been to me." she smiled faintly down to her before she ended up teleporting up into her arms where she stayed quite happily. "And I'm Alisha, nice to meet you Matt." she said, before starting to glance around as if for the first time actually trying to work out where she was.

"Great... Now it's gonna be forever to try and get to somewhere I know..." she sighed, looking to angel who just seemed to attempt to look as innocent and cute as possible.

He smiled at her, trying to make out her features in the darkness but not quite able to. "Yeah, I actually have no idea where I am. I'm guessing this mountain range is around Stella, though, and I have to, uh... well I can't go near Starling City." He blushed, not quite ready to explain himself to her - and he had thought that busting out of jail would make him feel cooler, not like a total loser.

"So where are you headed?" he asked casually. "If you're going to cut through the mountains I wouldn't mind the company. I heard it's treacherous." He gave a laugh to show that he totally wasn't afraid. "But I just don't have the time to walk around the mountains."

"Me? Don't really know where I'm headed. I just wander around and see where I end up, hoping it's not somewhere I can't get out of again..." she mused slowly, seeming to be hiding a little something of her own, though it seeming to be coming a little easier than it was for Matt, even if Alisha wasn't clearly noticing him at all.

"And I'm not too afraid of a little mountain. Got my team to help me if I'd ever need it. Plus, be nice to have some company for a change. Nice as my pokémon are, sometimes humans are needed too." she smiled, Angel seeming to giggle at what she'd said for some reason until Alisha poked her to make her stop.

"Ok, so I guess we're ... climbing a mountain," Matt said. "Cool." He didn't have supplies or anything, just a bit of water, some berries and three pokemon. He found a notch in the rock face and stuck his foot in it, then heaved himself up and caught onto a rock sticking out, then swung his leg up to catch onto a protruding root and shoved himself up a few feet higher before pulling himself up onto a flat ledge.

"Here," he said, leaning over and putting out his hand. "Climb up a bit and take my hand, I'll pull you up."

He watched as his Lairon managed to climb up the rock face pretty impressively, but incredibly slowly. They did live in the higher parts of caves, after all, but Pyrite and Dancer stayed stuck on the ground. He returned them with his free hand.

Alisha couldn't help but chuckle slightly at him trying to be the big bold man and going ahead.

"Yoooouurrr not gonna be able to pull me up..." she said slowly, attempting to hold in the giggles for now. Angel teleported up onto Matts head in order to be up high without nearly the same effort as the rest of them.

Alisha ended up attempting to copy what Matt had done, ignoring his hand as best she could so he wouldn't be gripping onto the cold metal and instantly going off her. It was nice to pretend she was normal so far, and she didn't want to spoil it too soon. She did her best to follow him up, though one of the foot holds crumbled under the weight of Alisha, her groaning as she attempted to scramble up before kicking the rock face to cause quite a lot of it to flake and fall off while creating another small crack to get her foot into. It was only really after the event that she realised what she'd done, looking to Matt in the most innocent way she could before pulling herself up next to him.

"Wow, I didn't know the rock was that flimsy, I'm sorry," he said with a frown as part of it crumbled away beneath her feet. "Well, looks like there's a sort of pathway up here." He stood up, not really fazed by the fact that she had ignored the hand he had offered, and, trying not to disturb the Kirlia who had appeared on his head, he began to lead the way down the rocky path through the mountains.

"Come out," he called, again releasing his other two pokemon from their balls when he noticed Titan looking around with confusion at the sudden lack of his teammates. Py and Dancer appeared and blinked up at him, then looked around, realising that they were suddenly much higher up.

"Ok, looks like we have a choice," Matt said, pointing up ahead. At the end of the small pathway was an entrance to a cave, but the rocks above and beside it looked easy enough to climb. "We can either go through, or over. What do you think?"

Alisha smiled, seeming glad that he hadn't quite worked out what was going on, glancing to the two paths.

"Oh, don't worry about it. Not your fault." she said, seeming a little distracted by trying to work out where to go.
"And through it would be a lot quicker. Plus, over might end up with more little mishaps like then. Kept on happening on the way up too. Not quite as light as I look. Plus, what's the point of treachery if not to go find it and have fun?" she smiled, moving over towards the crack and peering in as best she could.

"What's the point of treachery indeed," he said, and hopped along beside her, thrilling with excitement. He peered inside the cave. "Spooky!" he said happily into the dark entrance, and his voice was echoed back at him.

Titan and Py wandered in immediately and Matt peered inside to see if he could follow them, but they were enveloped quickly by the darkness. They were both cave-dwellers, so it was only natural that their eyes adapted faster than his. He blinked and squinted until he could make out things in the cave, and then entered.

And promptly fell six feet onto his face.

"I'm ok!" he yelled, his voice still echoing. He had fallen straight down into the lower level of the cave. He could just make out tiny lights reflected in Titan's eyes as his Lairon peered worriedly down at him. "In fact it gets brighter over here. Come down, let's see where the light's coming from at this time of the night."

Alisha couldn't help but laugh as she heard the tell tale crashing of Matt, Angel having teleported away to the safety of Titans back the moment she felt him starting to fall over, deciding to use him as a mount since he was a lot more comfortable than the silly human, less prone to falling over and he'd be able to see where he was going.

"I'll take your word for it.." Alisha mused, following him into the cave, trying to make sure she didn't make the same mistake he managed to find the moment he walked in. She instead waited for a moment to let her eyes start to adjust as she looked down to where Matt was, trying to get down carefully to be next to him. She ended up sliding down onto her bum, but it wasn't nearly as dramatic as Matt.

"There is a little light, isn't there..?" she mused, looking across towards it with a faint smile, starting to creep towards it.

Again, Matt led the way, puffing out his (aching) chest with obvious manliness and leading the way towards the light, winding through a tunnel.

It wasn't long before he came upon a little cavern. There was a small pool of water in it, and the ceiling went up in a conical shape with a little ledge that connected to the upper section he had fallen from. Staryu were moving and singing around the pool, and something inside it glowed majestically, causing the light to ping off of their gems and create patterns and shapes that danced across the rocky walls.

"Wow," he whispered, trying not to disturb them. He put out his foot so that the curious Pyrite couldn't go any closer, and instead the Snorunt sulked and watched from afar. "Just try not to-" he had been about to say 'interrupt them', but another thought cut in. "Where'd Titan go?"

There was a SMASH noise and all the Staryu cried out and fled, huddling together at the back of the cavern. A Lairon had fallen from above and crashed into the floor right in front of his trainer.

"Hi, Titan," Matt said uncertainly.

Angel quickly got to work, buffeting Titan so that he wouldn't end up falling to any further levels below with the high inertia of the heavy pokémon. She seemed a little glad when it was over with, not liking all the sudden psychic stuff that was needing to happen.

Alisha smiled to Angel faintly, glad to see her back again next to her, though seeming a little sad that the Staryu had all gone away. From the small glimpses of what she'd seen from behind Matt it had been really pretty.

"Aqua, let them know there's nothing to fear." she called, letting the shiny Horsea out of his ball to dive into the water, trying to retrieve the Staryu and help them calm and return to how they had been. He seemed a little curious about the strange light in the water, but let it pass to help calm the fellow water types first.

"What do you think that is?" Matthew asked Alisha, pointing to the strange glowing thing in the middle of the pool. It was very small, and seemed like it was flickering out of life. Perhaps because the Staryu had stopped singing to it, or maybe for another reason.

He pulled Titan towards him with a sharp scowl that made the Lairon flinch, and dragged him - he was willing, of course; Matt would never have been able to drag him anywhere if he hadn't been - behind the entrance to the cavern so the Staryu might be a little less frightened.

Alisha moved a little further away too, though to the other side so she wouldn't be blocked out from seeing it by Matt.

"I have no idea..." she frowned, seeming to be trying to peer at it, though the fact it was the only light source around made it quite hard to look at with too much intensity. "Almost looks like a little flame, but it can't be, so ignore me..." she mused quietly, keeping her voice down so not to disturb the Staryu and Aquas attempt to bring them back to relaxation.

Angel seemed confused too, crawling to perch on Titans head for a moment instead of sitting on his 'shoulders' so she'd be able to see too.

"It looks shallow enough," Matt said, and, feeling brave, he walked up to the pool, rolled up his sleeves, and plunged his arm in to close his fingers around the object. However, he didn't get a chance to, because something enormous and hurty landed on his back and forced him face-first into the water where he lay still without struggling.

"Lair!" Titan cried in surprise, and turned around to smack the newcomer Starmie in the back with a Mud Slap, but it bounced away with incredibly speed, span around, and whipped the Lairon in the face with a well-aimed Rapid Spin. Matt remained completely still in the water, and as Py crept closer to check he was ok, the Starmie slammed into him full-on, sending him skidding backwards again with a cry of pain.

"Matt?" Alisha asked, seeing him not struggling with trying to get out of the water and sighing, moving towards with a determination to try and grab the boys feet and drag him out, clearly barely caring about the Starmie that stood atop him.

Aqua turned around, seeming confused about what had happened, looking over to see that the Staryu weren't all too happy either now that the leader had needed to be gotten involved. Well, a couple of them weren't anyway, moving to join the fight as the rest stayed back, the fear for the newcomers overpowering the will to defend.

Aqua ended up starting to create a Twister to try and battle the two of them back, calling for help from one of the other pokémon since water on water wasn't ever the most powerful mix, though it helped that so far all their bubblebeams had ended up wrapped away in the Twister.

Angel yelped as she was flung about by Titans constant changed of direction and movements before she got off, firing a Magical Leaf at the Starmie to distract it. Hopefully it would be enough for Alisha to get Matt from under the water and keep the fight going more smoothly than the jerky jaggedy-ness that was going on right now.
