Pipe Works

The underwater tunnel goes not even twenty feet out before curving sharply downward. The square architecture has evened out, turning into less of a tunnel and more of a pipe. It descends for a long ways, but strangely enough, there are boxes in the walls that hold some kind of glowing matter, providing light in the strange pipe corridor.

The path itself is about two meters in diameter, large enough to fit two comfortably, four in a tight space. The heat is still present, but drops in intensity the further down one goes.

The water shines off of the metal contraption, and from all the pipes that protrude from it, it appears as if the thing is either a pump or a boiler. The space below is clear of water, but anything else that is down there is hidden by darkness.

Jones will carefully begins climbing downwards on the ladder, keeping his flashlight's strap around his wrist so as to avoid dropping it.

The ladder is a little slippery, but Jones makes it down easily. The bottom of the chamber is covered in a thin layer of water, and there is faint light coming from around the massive pump. There are also pipes that run to the left and right of the chamber, out of the pump, into the walls on either side.

Looking around, there appears to be a large stone-carved door to the left, similar to the one in the Antechamber, and a big pile of stones where another door would be to the right. The corners of the chamber are still dark.

Jones will unseal his bag, and pull out the rest of his team's pokeballs, clipping them to his belt. He'll then crack the diving suit's mask. If the air is breathable, he'll take the mask off, and release Neil, Inferno, and Moby. "Hello. My name is Jones. I'm not sure what name you go by in pokespeak, but as I can't pronounce that, I've decided to call you Neil, after one of the pioneers of space exploration. This is Moby, he's another pokemon that I caught inside the Pyramid, as is Inferno here. I'm an explorer; and I think that you're going to be a great help to me down here. In return for your help, you'll be able to see more of the pyramid than just the room you were in, you'll be able to grow more powerful, and you'll be cared for and healed. I'd like this to be a partnership. Ask these two if you like, they'll tell you that I take care of my team." After speaking to Neil, Jones will take a step back, and play his flashlight over the corners of the room while the pokemon have a chance to talk amongst themselves.

The Lunatone turns to the other two Pokemon, debating in its head.

While that is going on, the corners light up to reveal a few... larval pods. Metapod and Kakuna dot two of the corners, three Metapod in one and two Kakuna in the other, while the other two corners are empty. It's pretty warm and moist down here, hence why the larval Pokemon must be here, but the air is just as fine.

Jones will move a little closer to the Metapod's examining them for any oddities that might make them worth bringing back to the tent. He's keeping an ear out for any protective parental mon though.

The three Metapod seem like ordinary Metapod, clinging to the wall, just above the floor... nothing too special about them. They're very nonchalant toward the investigating trainer. Something must be keeping these guys fed, though...

Jones's awareness is right on the money, as the fluttering of wings can be heard coming from the stone door, which seems to be cracked slightly open.

Jones moves back from the Metapod towards his trio of mon. "Guys, I hate to break up your conference, but we've got company coming. Don't make any threatening moves unless I give an order or we need to defend ourselves." He keeps the light on, but is now a ways away from the Metapod, and watching the cracked open doorway with interest.

The doorway is moved a bit, and from it emerges a pair of Pokemon, a Butterfree and a Beedrill. They're surprised by the sight of a person in their little underground nest, and keep a watchful eye on Jones and his trio of Pokemon as they go to their children. They seem to be stockpiling herbs and plants, perhaps for when their children evolve once more.

Jones looks at the cracked door with interest. "That door must lead to the greenhouse! I wonder where the other one goes..." With that said, he'll turn to Neil. "Have you had time to make a decision?"
