The babble of the water was a soothing sound that Will and his Pokemon were more than happy to listen to. Well most of his Pokemon were happy. Little Zea did not like being this close to so much water.
At mid afternoon Will paused and looked around. "This is a good place to take a break don't you think?" the area was a smooth grassy place just off the trail with a few trees for shade and part of the river swelled up for a safe drinking hole.
The only thing even slightly bad about the place was the sharp drop-off that was above a rocky beach that might kill a person or Pokemon if they fell. Will positioned himself near the edge to make sure none of his Pokemon started to play too close to it.
That's when he saw it. On the other side of the river stood an Absol. Snowy white fur with a sharp contrasting charcoal black horn and the brightest red eyes he had ever seen. All through his childhood he had heard stories from his mother about that mysterious creature that appeared in times of disaster.
A small cry from his Pokemon made him turn away sharply. Trickster was pulling on Libra's ear. Will shook his head at their antics. Then another sound entered his ears of rock and dirt falling away. He felt his body go weightless as the ground beneath him crumbled away.
A single thought flew through his head. I hope my family can make it with out me. But just when he thought for sure it was over something sharply tugged on his jacket. Snowy white wings beat around his body as he was slowly lowered to the rocky beach below. He looked around him in shock. Above him the worried faces of his Pokemon peered down then disappeared.
A warm breath breathed on the back of his head. He turned to stare at the bright red eyes of the Absol. he took a step back to get a better look at the creature. This Absol was different than any other he had ever heard of. Two wings fanned out around the creature. He had never heard of a story where they had wings.
More small rocks fell behind him. His Pokemon had found a safer route down to the beach. Libra and Zea first then quickly followed by Trickster and Trooper, who was carrying his bag. Trooper landed with a thump and a Pokeball came flying out of the bag landing at the Angel Absol's feet.
The Angel lowered its head to look at the ball. "Be careful." Will warned, "It's a Poke ball. don't touch it unless you want to join our team."
Angel Absol stared at the group for a minute then while looking into Will's eyes he nudged the button of the ball with his paw and disappeared inside.

Natalie saw the boy ahead of her with his Pokemon. they seemed to be having lots of fun and she didn't want to disturb them. so she too decided to take a break from walking today. Her Trapinch was having fun causing a bit of a ruckus and Sewaddle seemed to be lecturing him. they looked fine playing amongst themselves so she took her staff in hand and started to practice with it.
The staff whistled as she slashed at an imaginary opponent. Slash, slash, jab, spin, thrust. rattle rattle. What was that. Natalie turned just in time to see the boy fall as the cliff crumbled under him. She ran over. Maybe he wasn't too hurt.
by the time she got to the edge his Pokemon had reached him below and were standing by and absol... with wings? What?
the Absol willingly let himself get caught and dissipated into the pokeball. the Boy looked around looking for a way up she whistled to get his attention. "You need some help?"

He looked around how his Pokemon had gotten down was a one way trip. Way too steep for him to climb. A sharp whistle can from where he had just fallen the sun prevented him from seeing her clearly but her voice was defiantly a girl.
He tried again to find a way up before answering. "Yeah that would be nice."
Libra and trick nuzzled against him relieved that he was alright while his female Pokemon seemed to be scolding him for his recklessness. "I'm fine guys just fine."

Well one good thing about the boy was his Pokemon loved him. That meant he couldn't be all bad. still she needed to find a way to help him back up. Trapinch, with Sawaddle on his head came over and stood next to her. She looked at her Sewaddle as an idea came to her. She pointed to the boy. "Rope."
Seeming to understand Sewaddle began to form a long thick sticky rope with her string shot, and slowly lowered it to the boy below. She anchored the other end to a tree. With quick efficient tugs she tied it so there was an anchor.
Once it was tight she ran back. "There! Grab on!"

Will gave the rope a few hard tugs first to make sure it was strong enough before returning all but Trick. Yeah the girl was helping him but still... years of living in the slums of Tornadra had taught him to be cautious of people.
From the rope he could tell she had a bug Pokemon but what it was he couldn't say. Caterpie Wurmple ariados. It could be anything and he didn't want to go up into an unknown situation unprotected. Not going to happen. He too the rope in hand and started to climb.
Trick floated uneasily by his head. His trainer had fallen once already. He didn't want him to fall again. Oh if only he had hands to grab with. How many new pranks he could play. Huh? That wasn't what he had been thinking about. He looked up to see Will at the top of the cliff. He shot up next to him with a sheepish look.

Natalie grabbed his hand and helped heave him up and over the cliff onto safe solid ground. Oh he was heavy!, and handsome. Natalie stared at him through her dark sunglasses.
He stood head and neck over her and looked to be a few years older than her. Two maybe three, but not much. His eyes though she couldn't tell the exact color from her dark lenses appeared to be some sort of brown. But what really caught her eye was that they seemed both hard and warm. Not a combination that she saw too often. The thick jacket prevented her from seeing his exact body type but he had to be strong. He had climbed all the way up the cliff and was recovering his breath quickly.
She was at a lost for words and said the first thing that came to. "Hi call me Natalie." Oh boy did that sound dumb!

"Thank You Natalie." Will gave her a small tired smile and let out a chuckle. "Well that's one way to get the adrenalin flowing." He looked the girl over automatically assessing if she could be a threat.
She had a short staff in hand and held it similarly to how his sister held a wrench when passing a gang. Like a weapon. She was a weary of him as he was of her. Good, they both had acknowledged that the other could be a threat but neither wanted an actual fight.
"Call me Will. He's Trick. He loves to prank but he's harmless." He jerked a thumb to indicate the ghost Pokemon. As if to prove him right Trick gave a goofy smile then made a scary face and laughed.

"Trapinch and Sewaddle." she stated shortly to her two Pokemon as she watched the Gastly. Gastly was native to Kanto. There were so many things here reminding of her home land it was beginning to make her mad. She had left Kanto for a reason! she shook that thought out of her head and walked to the road.
She stopped when she didn't hear his foot steps follow. Shouldn't he be heading for a town so they can make sure he was alright? He was lucky to be alive. She tilted her head in confusion. "Coming?"
Sewaddle crawled back onto Trapinch and Trapinch ran over to her. Sewaddle glared down at him as he insisted on doing this sorta jig while he ran Making for a very bumpy ride. Natalie knelt down and let Sewaddle climb onto her preferred perch on her shoulder.

Trapinch rushed forward to attack once again. "Don't even think about it Trapinch!" Natalie shouted. "Can't you see it's hurt enough. Leave it be."
Trapinch skidded to a stop and looked at Natalie confused. It was a battle, he was suppose to beat the opponent.
Natalie knelt down by the majorly weakened Pokemon. Cradling it gently in her arms and she looked over the injuries. It didn't look too bad. "You'll be fine with some rest little one."
She turned to Will who had finished his battle and frowned when she saw the fainted Shuppet. "Did you have to beat it so bad?" Nothing bothered her as much as unnecessary force.
(attempt capture)
