Ooh, I’m very glad! It’s always nice to go out and meet new people. I admit this is my first time here all on my own!

Enigma: You're missing something there, buddy. You'll get trampled in the dark for sure without a glow stick. I suggest sticking to a light source or something til you get one.

“A...  Glow stick?”  Quinn blinks, glancing around.  Come to think of it, everyone was wearing one or several of those glowing ring things.  Kind of reminded Quinn of an Umbreon’s rings, but in several different colors.  “Heh, thanks for the tip.  I’ll look for one, but these eyes of mine...”  He raises a paw up to the side of his head, motioning towards his large golden eyes.  “I can see well in the dark, learning to sail by the moonlight will help with that.  I suppose not everyone can say the same.”

Quinn was about to turn and leave to hunt down one of those rings when he paused.  Umbreon...  Wait.  Turning back to the Pokemon who had approached him, the Eevee looked upwards at the large creature.  “Geeze, you’re huge...” he muttered to himself, reaching up to scratch the back of his neck.  “I must admit I’d be hard-pressed to tell normally, but from that glowing I’m guessing you’re an Umbreon, a peculiar one.  Have no need for these glow things yourself, huh?  What’s it...  Like, though.  You know, being an Umbreon?"

Enigma@Taara: It's not good to be tied all in knots when you're somewhere you should be relaxing, you know.

I came here to have fun and hopefully meet some friends and well.. All I’ve suceeeded in is ruining someone’s night. So.. Yeah.

Honestly I don’t think I should have even came

Enigma@London: Hope you don't mind having some company out here. And if you do, then too bad, you're getting it anyway. Name's Enigma. Yes, I'm an Umbreon. Generic greeting stuff. Now that that's out of the way, you know much about stars and constellations?

“I’m London. Yes, I’m a sylveon. Is this how pokemon greet each other these days...?Anyway, to tell you the truth, I know little about stars except the basic science-y stuff. My sister is more into astrology and whatever else than I am, so she probably knows a bit. How about you?”

A Solo Sojourn

Calm.  Peace.  The group of Varlajans had returned to their makeshift home after failing to locate Shrike, and so far it seemed that no one wanted to talk to each other.  There was a pervasive sense of failure among the group; failure and a lack of idea on what to do next.  Without Shrike they were stuck here on Earth, and if they couldn't find Shrike...  What then?

Zeke sat on the cliff away from the house again, feet dangling off the edge.  Beside him sat the flute he had...  "Won".  Lost in thought he stared out across the forest below, feet kicking at the cliff, staying in motion even as he sat.

After a few minutes he reached over and laid a paw on the flute.  He had never actually played it since he got it, just used it to carry things.  Curiously he picked up the instrument and put it to his mouth, experimentally blowing through it a few times.  The notes were strained and off tune, the Riolu frowning as he manipulated the holes that lines its shaft and adjusted how he blew into it.  It took a bit but finally he managed to produce something that sounded all together decent, the Riolu going with it and making up a song as he went.

Yet, then he stopped.  Zeke lowered the flute, clutching it in his paws as he watched the rising sun.  Another day was before him, and what would he spend it on?  Sitting, waiting for Shrike to return?  Silently Zeke pulled himself up, reaching behind his back and tucking the flute into his sash behind him.  No, an offer had been made to him at the festival and he intended to make use of it.

Glancing back at the abandoned house in the distance, Zeke could swear he saw someone move in one of the broken windows, watching him.  But then Zeke turned away and leaped off the cliff, feet extended before him to catch himself on the steep downwards slope and run all out down it.  He ran as fast as he could, descending the cliff and making his way through the forest.  His destination?  Blackwater Ranch.

----------

Enigma had told Zeke the location of the ranch back at the festival, and fortunately Zeke was fairly decent at navigation.  He couldn't make the journey within one day so he found himself having to take a break as night fell, the Riolu tucking into some bushes to sleep.  Berries grew on them to provide food, Zeke eating a sizable meal of them in the morning before setting off again.

He knew that he had to avoid cities: they'd be full of humans, humans who would probably try to "capture" him.  It was an odd concept to Zeke that only enhanced how foreign this world was.  Capturing Pokemon to use in fights?  How barbaric.  Still, it was one of those Pokemon he heading to see now and he couldn't complain about being forced to fight.  He just preferred to have his freedom, and if he was caught by a human there'd be no returning to Varlaja.  Ever.

Finally Zeke came across his destination.  A fence surrounded the ranch, with signs written in that human language he couldn't read.  He vaulted over it with ease, looking around as he walked through the fields.  Where to find Enigma, now?  Without any real idea where to look he kept wandering deeper into the ranch, only to see one familiar sight in the distance.

"Hey, Quar!  Remember me?" Zeke called out as he rushed over to the Eevee.  "Looking for the big guy, he around anywhere?"

Except, as Zeke approached the Eevee he couldn't help but notice something...  Off about him.  "You okay...?" he hesitantly asked.

Uh, wait, excuse me ... ahem ... Quar! That’s your name then! Nice!

Sorry, I’ve had a bit of a long day, is all. I just got home, myself, even though it’s the afternoon and all. You can call me Chez, by the way.

And, I was home before, but you’re right, now I’m HOME! I think I will relax for a bit, yeah ... then I’ll see what I should do next.
