ITT: We are all Pokémon Trainers

<Let's go then!>

-rides her Whirlipede up the slopes of the mountain-

-rolls after Mezzo, using his wings to boost him over cracks or rocks in his path-

Rascal: *getting frustrated* <Stop it!> *gets in Spathi's face* <This isn't the time for arguments! We need to find Aqua!>

Spathi: *doesn't back down* <Did you remember to feed Aqua, Rex? Or did you just let her walk off without eating? This whole mess she's in is your fault!>

Rascal: *getting frustrated* <Stop it!> *gets in Spathi's face* <This isn't the time for arguments! We need to find Aqua!>

Spathi: *doesn't back down* <Did you remember to feed Aqua, Rex? Or did you just let her walk off without eating? This whole mess she's in is your fault!>

Rascal: *a warning flame rests in his mouth* <I said...>

Minty: *shouts* <STOP IT! This isn't the time for stupid fighting! We need to find Aqua before she gets lost!>

Rex: *clearly shaken by Spathi's comments* ...H-he's right. C'mon, guys. *heads for the beach, letting his and Star's mons follow*

~Meanwhile, in the ocean~

Aqua: *sighs* <I thought swimming would help me feel better...> *floats in place for a moment, deep in thought* <Salt water is gross...but I can't go back to that lake after what I did.> *ears droop* <Minty probably hates me...>

-Is now knocking on DS' door with Crochet while holding the human to Pokemon armband-

- Gets myself ready for the day, then decides to recall Ribbons who is still asleep in front of the window -

- Hears someone knock on the door and goes over and opens it -

Oh, hi Tagg!

-reaches the summit, and finds none other than Ho-oh standing there-

<Oh wow...it's an honor...> -bows-

<EEEP!>

-burrows into the ground, while Salamence appears-

Salamence: <How is— OH! Hello Ho-oh!> -makes a bird gesture of obeisance-

-Scratches head-

Good morning DS. I've kind of got another thing to show you, but I need the armband to do it.

Oh? The armband?

Yeah, I need you to put it on.

-Hands the armband to DS-

Ho-oh: -Seems slightly surprised to see Mezzo and Every.- Oh, hello Mezzo. Every and...Salamence, is it? I certainly didn't expect to see you two in the Dream World.

Hmm...Would I be right in assuming that you're trying to do something about that ominous airship flying around? I'm rather concerned about it myself.

- Nods -

Okay.

- Takes the armband and puts it on, changing into my Espeon form -

<Now what?>

<You recognized us? And yes. We tried to board the airship but got knocked off. Do you think you could help?>

Ho-oh: I don't think that would be a problem. I'd could certainly use your help in dealing with this issue.

-Ho-oh turns around, lowering himself down slightly.-

Ho-oh: Climb on my back, and we shall head after it.

Two words DS: Sweet Dreams.

-To Crochet-

Crochet, use Grasswhistle.

-Crochet blows into one of her arm blades, putting both of us to sleep-

-shakily slithers onto Ho-oh-

Salamence: <Oh, wow...this is an honor, Great One!> -flutters up and nestles in Ho-oh's feathers-

-I transform into a Lucario and hop on Ho-Oh-

-hops on Ho-oh's back; the Whirlipede rolls off-

- Falls asleep -

Ho-oh: Everymon on? -Turns to look.- Oh, hello Straw. Didn't see you there. Anyway, hold on tight.

-Ho-oh flaps his wings and ascends before flying off, leaving a beautiful rainbow trailing in his wake.-

Ho-oh: Keep an eye out. Although I doubt a battleship of such size would be hard to miss.

<Got it.>

-I start forming an Aura Sphere in case the battleship tries to shoot us down-

-curls up on Ho-oh's back and shuts his eyes tightly-

Salamence: <Wheeeee!>

~At the beach~

Minty: <I saw her go off this way. We should still be able to catch up to her.>

Rex: *nods and looks at Laplace's ball* Are you awake?

Laplace: <I woke up during the yelling.>

Rex: Sorry...

Laplace: <It's alright. We just need to find Aqua, right? This is no time for idle chatter.>

Rex: Yeah. *lets him out and hops on his back; recalls Spathi and Lian*

Rascal: *sits on Laplace's shell, Minty on his head*

Laplace: *sails off*

~Meanwhile~

Aqua: <Okay, I'll go back and apologize.> *stomach growls* <...maybe I should eat some berries first, though.> *starts to swim back*

Under the water: *a few shapes swim around, heading in Aqua's direction*

-Wakes up, and sees DS and Tagg asleep-
