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. OOC

"Hrm," Sibyl frowns. She didn't think they'd be that far behind the 'blackguards'. There's probably not much point in it anymore; its best left to the professionals. Just help the Luxray back to health really, Sibyl thinks. "If there's nothing else, we should also get back to Jeremy and move on. Maybe after we get the help to the family?" She also then looks around blankly at the stuff from her upended bag, and kneels down to pack it back up, as though she'd just realised the need to do so. |

It's about now that Isabella remembers something, which distracts her from her own huff over having missed the poachers. "... You know what? In all the excitement we never did call the professor about last night." She turns back to Reiner. "We're not locals, so the name doesn't mean anything to us, but do you know about a group called Team Aegis? They like to wear body armor and hide their identities. Hoods, voice changers, stuff like that. We ran into them last night and they decided to intimidate us. Or try to, anyway," she adds with a bit of a smug smile. She's a little proud of their collective resistance to intimidation. |

"Team Aegis? That's...odd." Reiner pauses for a few moments. "It certainly sounds like them - they dislike people finding the identities of their members - but I don't know why they would be trying to intimidate you. Perhaps they had abandoned the rest of the group." After a few moments, he seems to register that Oscar had asked a question. "Yes, of course. I intended on bringing her here anyway; I'll help you back to the rest of your group, if you like. It looks like some of you are about dead on your feet, anyway," he adds, glancing at Isabella. "This may take a few moments." He steps away from the group and...you're not quite sure what he does next. He just seems to hold himself still, eyes closed. After a couple of minutes, a few big Grass-types - two Gogoats and a Sawsbuck - emerge from the underbrush and pad over to him. He makes a polite half-bow to them, reaching out to pet each one in turn, before looking back to you. "They will take us back to this little one's mother, if you would ask your Pidgey to guide us back there." This latter is directed at Oscar, though it sounds less like a request and more like a statement. |

"Certainly - I'm sure you wouldn't mind, would you, Harria?" Oscar asks, going towards the Sawsbuck (figuring it'd be better to take the higher mount since he was the tallest of the three). He pauses before mounting it, though, looking down at the little Shinx. "Um... which would you like to ride, by the way?" He asks, squatting down so he'll be able to help the cub up wherever it wants to go. |

"They were trying to scare us out of going on with the League, I think? They tried to make it sound like us getting picked for it was part of some sort of evil plan. All of us who started out yesterday, I mean." She makes a broad circling gesture with her hand, trying to indicate the group of twenty-four foreign trainers selected. Her train of thought is interrupted when Reiner apparently calls the Pokémon over without making a sound. "That is so cool. How did you do that?" She's only an amateur occultist but seeing this stuff is right up her alley - it's not just other clairvoyants she's interested in. "Is that some sort of telepathy or what?" Belatedly, she adds, "Oh, uh, thanks." She looks a little embarrassed when she realizes she was the target of the 'dead on your feet' comment - she's been trying not to be too obvious about the toll all the running has taken on her. |

Sibyl sniffs dismissively following the Team Aegis discussion. "Well either way, they better not push their luck, or I'll show them what for," she mutters darkly. She is likewise suitably surprised at Reiner's ability to seemingly 'call to the wild', and nods approvingly at the display. She thinks saying something dramatic too would have made a better effect, but that was just her way. "Travelling in style. I won't say no for sure," she says appreciatively. She walks over to one of the Gogoats and carefully attempts patting it, while she pays attention for Reiner's explanation for his apparent Pokemon empathy. She won't admit it but she's impressed, and wants to know more. |

At the campsite, Jeremy lies on his back on a patch of grass watching Ellis and Almond play with one another. Well, watching Ellis curiously sniff at Almond while the latter stares blankly back. "Man, I'm not sayin' you're not a welcome addition to the team or nothin', but I hope there's more to you than what I've seen." He directs at Almond, not expecting much of a response and getting exactly that. "I'm just sayin', maybe we can find you a move tutor or somethin'. Get you some much needed offence." He gets up and walks over to his Pokémon, sitting in-between them and smiling. "And if we don't, then I guess there are worse team mascots to have. Tell you the truth, it took me a while before I learned how to fight too, even though my surroundin's necessitated it. Folk almost preferred me for my mouth anyway. I know you ain't got one, but you still got an odd kinda charisma. Point is, y'all both -and any other Pokémon lucky enough to join this team- should know you got value beyond battlin'." He goes back to his patch on the grass and watches the clouds go by. "If the rest ain't back in 30 minutes I'll give 'em another call." |

"Ah...of a kind," Reiner replies. "Empathy would be more accurate. Few wild Pokemon are actively hostile to humans, and most of them are willing to help. You just have to ask them politely." The Gogoat shifts slightly as Sibyl approaches it, but allows itself to be petted. Led by Harria, with the Shinx sitting just in front of Oscar - claws retracted this time - your procession makes it back to where the injured Luxray had been left. Entei appears to have departed, though the Luxray looks up in recognition as you return, giving a soft purr in greeting. |

Oscar dismounts the Sawsbuck and smiles to the Luxray in greeting. "Right," he begins, "do you need any more help from us, Mr Reiner? I fear I don't know how your..." he waves his fingers in a vague gesture, "empathy works, but I'd assume your able to get across your intent to her." |

Isabella considers Reiner's explanation as they ride back to the Luxray's den. When she thinks about it that way, it sort of makes sense of what she's been experiencing. She's interacted with wild Pokémon a lot more in the past couple of days than much of the rest of her life up to now, and she feels like she's been catching the edges of the empathy Reiner talked about when she does. It's a bit of a relief to see that Entei's gone, even if she expected it. She remembers that Entei's one of those legendary Pokémon that never seem to stay in one place very long. She does kind of wonder just what it was that he was doing here to start with, since he'd hinted that the poachers weren't his primary objective. As she swings herself down off the Gogoat, she says, "Sorry if I seemed a little weird about that. I'm actually a little clairvoyant, but even living in a town with a psychic Gym Leader, I don't run into that many other people with this sort of ability. I like learning more about it." |
