Exploring the Island for food, treasure, and...friendship?

The forest was beautiful. Orange and yellow leaves decorating and illuminating under the evening rays of the sun gave the area a mystical appearance. Walking through the forest...was a little espurr by the name of Triona. Her eyes were looking up at everything around her...the trees had most of her attention. This was the sight she liked to see...after all, what was more peaceful than a beautiful scenery like this in the evening light?

She really wasn't looking for much right now, just exploring for things that she could find useful, or food...food sounded wonderful to the growling tummy of the little restraint pokemon. the last thing on her mind though was stopping to chat with another pokemon. Though...she may find this is what would happen. Or maybe she would get aid in finding food. Who really knew what adventures would happen...

After his most recent trip to Pecha Forest Deimos had heard about a certain island in the west, something that had piqued his curiousity at the time, especially once he had heard that it was accessible by land. This location of course was a bit further away than his previous travels had taken him so he figured it'd be a good test of his stamina, he couldn't afford to be left weak due to travelling from destination to destination... What kind of 'Knight' would allow such things to occur?

It had taken him quite a while to reach the Isle, from first glance it matched the description that he had originally heard, a perpetual autumn forest surrounded by a lake of relatively small size. Deimos glanced around, trying to identify any way of crossing over. Eventually his sight found a set of stepping stones that led across the water to the island, this must have been what they meant.

Taking the time to pass over them cautiously Deimos eventually arrived on the small Isle, it seemed a nice, quiet place to start with. "Tranquil... Just like the Pond by Grassveil" Deimos muttered under his breath as he began to walk into the autumn forest, curious as to what secrets this place could hold.

Triona was content with kicking the leaves to see what was underneath...though of course this was not actual SEARCHING, it was more or less her just passing the time as she walked through. The rustling leaves would alert other pokemon she was near...which she found was good for most cases. Other pokemon didn't seem to like to be surprised by the appearance of another, as well as she could receive a fair warning to leave if one didn't like her being so close to whatever that pokemon wanted to protect.

Either way...she was just skimming along the edge for now, trying to gather her strength back from such a long journey. She made herself rather tired getting here...it was a long way from where she was, and it was a lot of work jumping from rock to rock at her size!

As Deimos walked through the tranquil woods, the silence seemed to persist, no overly noisy Pokemon creating a racket that Deimos and probably others would find annoying, so far it seemed like a nice place... How long would that last. "I guess this place isn't as often settled as others... Judging by how quiet it has been so far" Deimos muttered under his breath, being relatively quiet to avoid disturbing the peace and tranquility.

It wasn't long until Deimos could hear the unnatural rustling of leaves, something that put him on edge for a moment... A Feral? Here of all places? Or was it just another traveller or something of the sort? So far Deimos couldn't tell. Due to this Deimos had been put on guard, carefully looking around the area, being ready to defend himself if need be.

She made a soft sigh as she stopped and looked around. If only she could live here...it was quiet. Nobody seemed to want to aggravate or bother you...and plus she could sleep here with no worries of being woken up rudely by some pokemon who wanted to be loud. Didn't they know that some pokemon DID want to sleep?

Either way...she paused as her eyes rested on an absol. Now..what in the world was an absol doing out here? Then again...it was an island. It made sense...besides, she was sure there would be those who would ask "why in the world was there an espurr here?" She just stood there though...watching the absol to see what it would do. Would it approach her in some manner? Or would it just..leave. In a way she hoped for the latter...she really didn't feel up to interaction at the moment.

When did she ever though?

Soon enough he heard a sigh and caught sight of what he presumed to be the cause of the rustling, an Espurr... Maybe he just overreacted, even if it was feral if wouldn't be a big threat considering Deimos's Sucker Punch would deal with it extremely quickly. Quickly realizing that it was watching him Deimos merely turned and walked away... He didn't have anything against the residents of this place, he didn't want to disturb the peace and tranquility.

"Still relatively quiet... Better than the town for certain, this'd be a nice place to live if one wanted peace and quiet" Deimos muttered under his breath as he walked.

She watched the absol as it just...walked away. Well...at least there was no worries of it trying to come make friends with her. She wasn't really wanting to go chase after it anyways, let alone would she do such a thing. So with that....Triona herself started walking, looking around for items or berries as she decided to lift up a large bush leaf...perhaps something was under here?

As he was walking away Deimos had begun to sense... Something, it wasn't particularly the same as before, not a case of the earth cracking, more so as if it was being... Launched or thrown somehow. What is due to running in the soft earth of this Isle perhaps? Was something charging? Deimos couldn't tell due to him being so used to more so solid ground than this. "It doesn't feel as if it's coming straight at me... So it's not really my problem if it doesn't cause issues" Deimos muttered under his breath.

Needless to say he wasn't aware of the actual cause, it was a Feral Pokemon charging at something... No... Someone would be the better way to put it. Then again Deimos had no reason to care nor get himself involved if he didn't have a reason to deal with it or assist.

Triona gasped as the young deerling jumped out from where it was under the leaf, barely managing to dodge it as it clipped her arm when it ran past. She must have disturbed the poor thing where it was hiding or sleeping! As it was...when the deerling past her it kept on running....right towards the Absol that she seen before. Triona ran after it though..trying to get it's attention by throwing a rock at it...this only made it run faster though as she stopped. Hopefully...the absol would take notice of this thing running at him.

The sensation of earth being launched and thrown continued, feeling now as if it was rapidly approaching him... Was he being charged. It felt as if the charge was coming from behind him, a four legged Pokemon from the way and amount that was being launched. Deimos merely kept walking, visibly he didn't seem to acknowledge it, though he did in reality via the use of stone edge. A jagged blade of stone erupted from the earth at an angle behind him and towards the Deerling, being aimed more so to make the charging individual to back off than cause actual harm... If it was harm he wanted to cause he had better options for that considering the circumstances.
