Two Pokemon and a Mountain

[E: 6 (Arceus... that isn't a lot..)]

Stark stared up at the large, tall, mountain. It seemed like a good enough place to possibly live, in case she needed to escape any explorers. The question is, was there a specific spot she could find that would be perfect? The Sneasel thought this over, and then told herself there would be caves dotted all around the mountain, so this wasn't a problem. With a smirk, the ice type set off towards the summit calmly, a twinkle in her mischievous eyes. This mountain seemed like the perfect place! Stark was proud of herself for finding such a good dungeon to live in.

(8. I keep forgetting to do this...)

Deimos once again had found himself wondering into the mountainous terrain he knew as Black Mist... Something about this place kept bringing him back, yet he did not know what. He was of course thinking about what had happened that time at the Pond... Where be had encountered her once again, he couldn't get his mind off of her. He couldn't get his mind off of that gentle feeling he felt deep down when he was around her, he understood that it must have been what she had felt as well... It was foreign to him... And yet, it just felt right.

Quietly he approached the well travelled path that he always used, planning on making use of the same route once again for another foray into the mountainous terrain. "I need to focus on what's happening here and now... Not what happened back then Deimos muttered, trying to get his mind off of what had happened, he didn't want to look like some lovestruck kid. Shaking his head he glared upwards, further down the road with a strong conviction, he would come to understand this place fully, he'd adapt to the challenge, no matter what it takes.

Stark then continued to walk the well-worn path, scanning every wall of the mountain as she did so. She had to find the perfect place she could live in, so then the explorers might not fight her. Then again, it all depended, and if they chased her all the way here and found her, then she'd need a new hiding spot that she could live in. Shrugging, the outlaw continued on casually, but heard claws clicking behind her. Explorer?! The Sneasel whirled around only to see an Absol walking along, just like she was. 'Oh thank the heavens.....' Stark thought with relief. She didn't want to get caught by an Explorer first thing.

In silence Deimos walked up the beaten path, trying his best to keep his mind clear of those wonderful moments at the Pond... Now wasn't the time for that, he had more work to do, more to learn. As he walked he eventually noticed an unusual Pokemon up ahead... He recognised it as a Sneasel, an Ice type Pokemon. He admittedly did not expect to see one of that species in these mountains, but it didn't really matter to him whatsoever, it had nothing to do with why he came here.

Deimos simply walked past the Pokemon, being ready to throw out a Stone Edge at a moment's notice to defend himself in case it was actually violent... Better safe than sorry.

Stark nearly jumped as the Absol walked past her. "Jeez! You nearly scared me half to death!" She said when he was in front of her. The Sneasel smirked before she waited for a response. Being subtle was her specialty, especially when it was being snarky and possibly arrogant at the same time. She made her strides a little longer, and tried catching up to walk next to the Absol instead. 'Better to be next to someone to talk instead of being 20 feet behind them,' the Sneasel told herself thoughtfully. The only things on her that seemed to move was her leaf sprouting from her ear, and the bottom part of her scarf, both of which were being blown in the breeze.

Deimos didn't particularly notice the Sneasel's reaction at first, it had already known of his presence so how would he have scared her nearly by walking past? It contradicted itself. Deimos merely kept walking, there wasn't anything that he needed that could be obtained due to the Sneasel, he was just here to better understand the location, nothing more, nothing less. "I doubt I actually scared you... You had already seen that I was here" Deimos responded to the Pokemon.

'What the? He knew I had— Oh yeah, he was facing me.' Stark facepalmed. How could she have been so stupid? He had been walking behind her the whole time, so why wouldn't he have known she had looked at him. "I apologize for my stupidity....." She muttered. The Sneasel felt so dumb! 'Stop beating yourself down about this. You should just introduce yourself.' Stark told herself silently. "Anyway... I'm Star—" She coughed, remembering to hide her real identity. "I'm Yoku. You?" The Sneasel said.

Deimos merely did the equivalent of a shrug and kept walking... What help was this conversation with a random Sneasel? Whatever... It'd be rather offensive if he came out with a comment like that. He quietly listened as she apologised her her stupidity... That was relatively new, something he had not expected although he wasn't going to say anything about it once again. When she inquired as to his name after suddenly stopping and restarting her speech, Deimos shrugged again. "Deimos... A traveller" He answered, seeing no reason not to do so.

"Pleasure to meet you, Deimos." Stark said, smiling a little. The Sneasel hadn't given away her true identity, which was good. She didn't need the Absol going off and telling the authorities that she was in the area, waiting to strike. This scared her a little, but she calmed down, knowing since he was a traveler, he wouldn't know she had a bounty on her head. 'Phew... I was really frightened for a second there....' Stark thought with relief. Deimos wouldn't squeal on her, she wouldn't target him. Ever. Unless he formed a team at Grassveil, that is.

Deimos merely shrugged once again and slowed down, allowing the Sneasel to get ahead of him... He had an idea, it was about time to put it into action.
"Time to figure out how this thing works" Deimos muttered as he took out a Trawl Orb. He had seen one used before by a Lucario, apparantly it brought items to the user but was lost upon use. Deimos merely utilised the Orb, hoping to get lucky.
