Lake: <That was odd.>

...What was that Cubone doing with that Wormadam?

Of course not Tracer. DS?

- Shrugs -

I don't mind.

-Past-

<Triforce: "(*shrug*) She probably got caught in one of our traps or something.">

<Hourglass: "Yeah, be careful where you head off to, it's easy to get lost on some of these trails...">

(To Lake)

Clumsy Scar — <That? That means I'll lose a bet.> (bumps bone against a wall) <Since the Graveyard keepers say there is a Wormadam migration coming to out terriroty, we are running bets starting next full moon, to see who gets to catch a Wormadam first...>

(Back to Triforce)

Clumsy Scar — <Speaking of which, I guess it'd be good if we finish here soon...>

Oh, right.

Lake: <What were you betting on? Anything important?>

-Past-

<Triforce: "... Right. Let's go watch that Sandshrew's punishment before we leave...">

Alright then.

-Walks to the pizza place-

Past

Clumsy Scar — <Agree... come with me,> — motions Lake to follow — <I think I have an idea where we can watch the trunk from without being seen.>

Past Past

Meanwhile, Dintel sits on the top of the slanted trunk. As one of the Cubone children asks if they can starting biting his tail yet, the elder Cubone explains that the Sandshrew's punishment has been changed.

Dragonhunter, if you have any ideas, grab someone near you and go on an adventure. There's nothing that says the group has to do everything together.

I'm going to a grad tonight, so I won't be posting much, if at all.

-Me and Lake quietly follow clumsy, keeping low to avoid being seen. Though this does mean Lake has to drop to all fours and crawl along the ground.-

Lake: <Us Gators aren't very stealthy on land.>

- Sparq climbs onto my head in an attempt to get a better view -

... Sparq, get down from there. You'll mess up my hair.

-Chuckles while walking-

I remember my Pikachu used to do that back when I was starting out.

Combined Past!Past-Present!Past Present

(friggin' pluscuamperfects)

Clumsy Scar — <Well... right here... sshhh>

Up the trunk, Dintel curls into a ball.

Dintel — <Like so?>

Cubone — <Yes... and now, your punishment shall be executed. You shall fall down and follow the Pokéarth!>

The Cubone uses his club to hit ball!Dintel, who starts rolling way down the trunk, speeding.

Dintel (as he passes nearby where the others are hidden) — <Wheeeeeeeeeeee~! I'm flyiiiiinnnnnnngggg...>

Suddenly Dintel reaches the end of the trunk, and ejected at rolling speed, flies thru the air for a couple of meters before hitting the next tree. Hard.

Clumsy Scar — <That Sandshrew was weird...>

-Present-

"Hmm... I've noticed that some of us have gathered entire extended teams together during this conference... I'm starting to wonder if I should get in on the act too..."

<Teala: "Wait, what?">

<Shaun: "He's asking if it would be a good idea to get everyone who's currently benched together with us.">

<Teala: "Oh! ... Will he be able to handle it?">

<Shaun: "I'm not sure. It can't hurt to try though...">

<Milo: "Wait, but if he gets everyone out... Then that means we'll have to put up with Sonny...">

<Shaun: "He's not that bad, Milo. He's just a little withdrawn... And irritable.">

<Kat: "A little?">

-Past-

<Pentagon: "Huh. Wierd... Should we get going?">

Hehe... Sparq really likes climbing on things.

- Sparq climbs back down onto my shoulder -

Not really surprising, since he's a squirrel.

Sparq: <An electric squirrel.>

Lake: <Well, he may not be the sharpest knife in the drawer...>

-Lake runs a hand along his scarf.-

Lake: <...But he is a good friend. And that's all that matters.>

Aww...Yeah, we should get going now.

-Past-

-The group heads back to the Minute Clan's dwelling and begins following a trail-

<Black Eye: "Wait, you remember which way we came from for that fork up ahead right?">

<Hourglass: "I think so...">

-Is feeling bored-

-Walks into the pizza parlor while speaking-

Sure, if you want Tracer.

-Hears Tracer's Pokemon-

Sonny?

You think so?

-Me and Lake exchange worried glances.-

Lake: <I don't like the sound of that.>

-Present-

"You know, my Honchkrow."

<Teala: "Was that the bird that kept saying funny words every other sentence?">

<Shaun: "That sounds like him.">

<Teala: "... He wasn't very nice...">

-Past-

<Hourglass: "Both forks go into the future, it's just that one overshoots the day we came from by about half a week...">

Past

Clumsy Scar — <You think so?> (eye twitches)

After hearing Hourglass.

Clumsy Scar — <Yeah, as if that was nothing.> (throws arms up) <What's gonna matter that we lose one week!>

Thinking back for a while, Clumsy points at Luke.

Clumsy Scar — <Well, human, this is where you finish your service to us.> — points to the forking — <Choose our way.>

-Has already taken his order-

Oh yeah, Sonny, I remember him. Garchomp kept on growling every time he was out. None of my Pokemon seemed to like him much.

Nudi: -Pops out his Pokeball- <I'm telling you something's funny about that bird Tagg.>

Okay, um...That way.

-Points to the nearest tunnel.-
