You keep your eyes firmly closed and let your body relax into the soft moss.
“Five more minutes.” You mumble.
You faintly hear snickering.
“…never seen such a lazy legendary…”
“…never seen a sleeping legendary…”
“…normally more… aware… then this…”
More cackling. The three voices are growing more annoying by the second while they chatter away in your ears.
Finally, your eyes fly open. One voice screeches in surprise as an Aipom scrambles backward. Its fellows laugh at it.
Aipoms. You should have known.
You stretch as you stand up. The Aipoms ‘panic,’ running around and swinging from branches (you note you’re in a forest).
You glare at the three nuisances.
“Ain’t you a scary one?” One of them taunts, swinging upside down from a branch. You breathe a gust at it. Although it grips its tail tighter, you blow harder until it loses its grip. As the Aipom falls to the ground, the other two snicker at it. You swing your gaze to them.
“Do you mind?!” You roar at them.
Finally, the three flee, with their laughter ringing in your ears. As you eye your surroundings, you grumble that you hate Aipoms.
After you shake yourself fully awake, you look around.
You’re in a forest that you dimly recognize as being north of Ecruteak City, Johto. You silently thank the Unown for putting you someplace near where you need to be.
You think for several seconds and identify the waterfall that was shown to you as being somewhere near Cherrygrove City. Just north of it, you believe.
You turn to face south, nod your head decisively, then run forwards. Trees pass by as you fly past them. You silently admire the grace that you run with and the speed at which you run at. At this rate, it’ll be next to no time before you get this show on the road.
Of course, the North Wind is also aiding me. Thank you, North Wind. You think cheerfully.
After a few minutes of running through the trees and over rocks and off cliffs, (to land safely, and gracefully, at the bottom. Who knew that your skinny legs could take such an impact so well?) you slow down when you reach the edge of the forest. When you reach the last shadows cast by the leaves, you stop.
Before you lay Ecruteak City, but your eyes are glued to the scorched, blackened tower just in front of you. The other tower, tall and proud, lay in your peripheral vision.
A part of you wants to explore the tower where legend said you had your beginnings, but the other part was concerned that if you stop, you’ll miss whatever is happening at that gorgeous lake.
What should you do?
