The path through the - admittedly quite light - forest is either extremely well-maintained or extremely new. In places, there are what appear to be Pokemon trails that have forged paths into the forested area. A few Pokemon call in the distance, though none are immediately visible.

By the time Jeremy catches his breath the others have already started fussing over the injured Pokémon. He decides not to join them in getting too close for fear of crowding the creatures and startling them, but he does lean in slightly behind Isabella, placing one of his potions next to her. "Don't use another of yours. I haven't had to use any of mine yet and you might need one for the road ahead."

With that he backs up to give the Pokémon more space, standing near the Entei.

"So, uh..." Jeremy hesitates. He's bad enough at small talk as it is, and now he's going to try and make it with some creature of legend. "Is this what you do? Call on trainers to help Pokémon? Because that's...cool." Jeremy winces at his own words, yet finds himself unable to stop. "I mean. Did you just want our help with this? Or did you want us to find the other cubs?"

Harria gives a squawk of confirmation and flaps up into the sky, circling once or twice before the trees take her out of sight. Ivy, meanwhile, seems slightly startled at how close Entei is and bobs her way around the other Trainers before settling down again.

"This is not what I came here to do," Entei replies to Jeremy, "and what you do is up to you. I brought you here because she needed human help. Nothing more."

The Luxray snarls at Sibyl as she approaches, but seems to relax as Oscar and Isabella talk to her, beginning to lie down again. Her cub, on the other hand, is not nearly so easily pacified, and runs headlong at the three of you in what is clearly an attempt to headbutt Isabella's legs, but which, the cub having apparently vastly underestimated its strength or Isabella's weakness, ends up with it bouncing off and rolling onto its back with another meow, looking slightly dazed by the entire affair.

That doesn't stop the impact hurting, though.

Isabella isn't used to being attacked directly at the best of times, especially not when she's exhausted and off-balance after a run like that. So while she's glad the Luxray is calming down, she's not really prepared for being tackled, and more or less just falls over, wincing as the Shinx bounces off her already-sore legs.

She waves a hand hurriedly, not wanting anybody to get defensive and startle the Luxray all over again. "I'm okay, I'm okay. I'm just gonna... stay down for a minute. He's a fierce, bad predator, isn't he?" The last is directed in the cub's direction with a weak smile. Maybe if she lets it think it defeated her, it won't press the issue. She claps a hand over her heart dramatically. "Alas, I am slain!"

Sibyl backs off a little as the Luxray snarls, with a little, "Woah there..." as she does. Maybe I'll leave this one to the others, she thinks. Doesn't seem to like her.

She nearly reflexively shouts as the Shinx knocks Isabella over, but she stops herself just as she sees Isabella wave the concern off. Nevertheless, Sibyl quickly walks over to check on Isabella just to be safe, right as she starts speaking like an old theatre play. Sibyl is briefly stunned, and stares blankly down at her for a second or so, before twigging on her strategy and playing along. "Oh no! What are we to do!", although a little less sincere and quieter, like a stage-whisper. She then actually whispers to Isabella, "I see the contest thing comes in useful. Just going to play dead the whole time now?" It appears an inappropriate time for sarcasm, but she does genuinely want to know what's happening next, even if she asks in such a way.

The Shinx rolls to its feet after a moment, shaking its head, and looks...rather puzzled, all things told, looking between the various humans with its head tilted to one side slightly. After a moment, it pads over to Isabella and lightly nudges her shoulder with its head. "Shi?" it mews in confusion. Closer up (and now that it's not tackling people), it's obvious that it's a very young cub, which might perhaps explain its inexperience.

The Luxray, who had started to stir at her cub's antics, relaxes again when it becomes apparent that there is no reprisal incoming. With the cub distracted by Isabella and Sibyl, it means that Oscar can easily get to the badly injured feline.

Oscar raises an eyebrow at the antics of Isabella and the cub, before returning his attention to the mother. He takes the potion and holds it next to her worst wound.

"Now, this may sting a bit... or may not, I genuinely don't know."
He says and sprays it on her.

Isabella shoots Sybil a quick, slightly strained smile. She's going to have a lovely bruise on her leg, probably, but it's better than aggravating the wounded Luxray further by having her offspring's antics set something off. "The less we scare them the better. Let it think it protected its mother." Besides, maybe it'll build up some self-esteem; she can imagine after what happened it'll want it. No need for the poor thing to grow up into the Cowardly Pyroar.

She has to work at it not to have a cuteness-induced heart attack when the cub pads over and bumps her; being so young and determined to protect its mother is just too precious. She smiles back at it, trying not to show her teeth. She doesn't really want to provoke it and get tackled again. "No fear, mighty hunter," she murmurs softly. "We're here to help, I promise. You're in no danger from us. You've got friends in high places who asked us to help your maman."

She doesn't turn her head to look at Entei - if he's even still there - but of course that's who she's referring to.

Sibyl half-smiles back at Isabella, whispering back, "Can't deny it worked," as the situation begins to defuse. She, like Isabella looks as smiley and non-threatening to the Shinx as possible, nodding in support of Isabella's words.

Judging from the fact that the Luxray bares her teeth as the spray settles on the wound, it probably does sting. As the solution in the bottle begins to work, knitting the wound back together, the feline begins to relax a little. Despite the potion, though, she's clearly still badly hurt.

Medicine Edu DC7


While Oscar tends to the Luxray, her cub apparently decides that indeed it has 'defeated' Isabella and scrabbles up to sit proudly on her stomach. Even for its small size and surprisingly light weight, it's still not the most comfortable of things to have sitting on you, especially since it hasn't retracted its claws.

Oscar, not having the first clue about medicine, simply sees that the potion has done some good and takes out another one for her, pausing only to look up and smile at the cub's "victory" before spraying it where it looks (to his entirely untrained eye) like it'll help most.
