Welcome to Gaia! ::

Anise was rather absorbed in watching the Buizel's antics, and was giggling a bit. "Felix, maybe you'd better Sing to calm it down so we can get it free," she suggested. Her Delcatty happily complied, Singing a soothing song to try and at least make the Buizel stop struggling so much so that someone could get it free.

Oki was sitting nearby, keeping a watchful eye on the wild pokemon and the Aerodactyl in particular. He didn't like that they were bold enough to walk right up to humans, and the fossil pokemon in particular seemed dangerous. He'd made it is self-appointed duty to protect his trainer at all times, and he was ever vigilant. Which is why he noticed when the splashing and yelling started over in the lake. He looked over to see the struggling human in the water, and noticed the Pikachu calling for help. That human wasn't his trainer, but he knew she would want to help if she could. So he padded over to her. "Zor, zorark," he barked, and when she looked over he pointed his muzzle at the lake.

Anise looked over to find a girl in the water, flailing in great distress. "Oh no!" she gasped. "Come on, let's help," she said, running along the bank towards the girl, with Oki bounding along beside her. Felix gave up on singing to follow along with them.

Trinity was truly convinced she had perished when she was suddenly removed from the lake and taken along the currents of the wind. Above, some pristine embodiment (which she guessed to be an angel) was lifting her upwards towards the heavens. This only made her panic more.

“Oh my goshness, I’m dead! I’m dead! Lemme go, lemme go!” she screamed, flailing more, purple pigtails whipping her face from the strong flaps of the seraph’s wings. It took Trinity approximately, say, another two minutes to realize her imagined guardian’s wings were not feathery but leathery, she wasn’t being lifted but more carried, and the drop was looking pretty high.

“Oh, no, no. Don’t lemme go! Don’t lemme go!” she hollered now, clutching onto the hooked members of the Aerodactyl’s legs.

However, her cries seemed to be of no concern to the flying fossil Pokemon. As she was dangled above an unknown individual, her only thought in mind was the flip of her dress skirt.

“No, no, they’re gonna see my undies!” she cried, forcing the hemmed edge of her skirt down. Than, she was let go, and the world somersaulted and kicked Arceus in the shins as she tumbled towards Earth. With a burly thump, she managed to garner a somewhat soft landing. Unfortunately, the Aerodactyl had pinpointed a certain black-white haired boy as her cushion.

“O-Oh, um, sorry.” Trinity chortled embarrassingly with her face above Heal’s tush. She really hoped he wouldn’t fart. “A-At least I’m okay . . . now?”

Heal just lay there, twitching slightly as he watched Meredith just run off to the safety of water. "...................Please, woman, for everything that is holy and made by Arceus, please, get off me....." He groaned out, all he wanted was to crawl into sleeping bag and hide for the rest of the week.

"We're a caravan exploring Zatao," Shina said in a calm, soothing voice. "I'm Shina Kiremono, the caravan leader. You're welcome to join us if you like. Right now though, please try not to scare the Eevee. I'd like to add her to my team," Shina explained in that same soothing tone. She carefully held her hand out, a treat resting on the tips of her fingers.

Eevee froze when everything got loud and active. But the food-giving human still seemed calm, so Eevee crept closer when more food appeared. She looked suspiciously at the hand holding the food, then snatched the tidbit and backed up a few paces to eat it.

Heal rolled himself over and groaned, cracking his back. Tomorrow morning, he didn't see himself doing much but healing from all the cuts and bruises he had gain in just the last few hours. Sighing, he got up slowly and walked to his items, taking out a first aid kit and treating the scratches done by the wild buizel as he listen to the conversation between Trinity and Shina.

Shikari finally made it back to the group. She wished she hadn't sent Chiyo ahead; it would've made it easier, following the hoofbeats. She was here now, though.
By this point, things appeared to have calmed down a touch. Chiyo nuzzled against her and she noticed the pokemon was shaking. "You're tired, aren't you, sweetie?" Shikari gathered her up and, now versed in memorizing the topology before getting too far from the wagon, followed the feel of the land until she reached it. Chiyo snuggled into her new pillow with a sigh of contentment.

"You caught something? Cool!"

Keria sat down next to the fire, putting her slightly upset looking Emolga down next her. She stroked his fur, grinning as the scent of the food cooking on the fire drifted over towards them. “Dinner smells great, I’d love some.” She replied before turning to face Shina "Congrats on the Eevee. What are you going to name it?"
