Twenty Eight

[why_born]

[Wybie's wandering the caves, he's kept his journal with him because he promised Raine he would. He's grabbed a few rock samples for her and has done some exploring. The kind a kid does just because something is there, rather than to find something specific. Unfortunately for Wybie, something specific has found himHey, there's something moving

Wybie! Are you all right? Where are you?

[why_born]

I'm in the caves!! And there's a snake made out of rock!!! OUT OF ROCK.

[ruin_mania]

This may sound odd, but do you have any food you may be able to offer it?

[why_born]

Feed it? You're not supposed to feed bears, isn't this the same sort of thing?

[ruin_mania]

That's to discourage bad habits by tourists. This is to extend the arm of friendship to a large rock monster. Surely you can concede the difference.

[why_born]

Okay, but if it eats me, I'm haunting you for two weeks.

[Have the sound of a sandwich being tossed towards a very large pokemon]

...Okay, it's eating. Now what?

[ruin_mania]

That's fair. I don't believe it will.

Observe it to see if it makes any sudden movements if you try to leave the area.

[why_born]

[Backing away now. Slowly...slowly]

It's just...watching me. With it's creepy beady-rock eyes.

[ruin_mania]

That's better than threatening you. Can you try to appear calm and go back the way you came?

[why_born]

Oh trust me, I'm appearing calm. Really, really calm. [He's getting out of there in a fast-slow shuffle]

[ruin_mania]

Good. It's not likely to attack unless in defense. It's a shame you don't have your own Pokemon to defend yourself with...perhaps I'll lend you my Quagsire next time.

[why_born]

Oh...uh...thanks. What does that do?

[ruin_mania]

He can create large amounts of water or earthquakes, or tackle with great force. I believe he knows Ice Beam as well.

[why_born]

Whoah. He can shoot a beam of ICE?

[ruin_mania]

Yes; Pokemon can be quite powerful if raised correctly.

[why_born]

That's so wicked!
