Simone. A good name for a monkey! Rose would gladly shake their hand, grinning widely. "Dig good! We shall be back!"
Rose quickly followed suit behind Simone, riding atop the back of Moab who walked at a careful pace. One of Rose's hands still cradled the egg against her chest, while the other gently stuck to the back of her Type: Null. The sound of trickling water didn't take that long to find, and being called Lucky by Torino had her giggling like a silly schoolgirl. "Maybe!" Rose replied, smiling widely. "I could be lucky! I have a little four leaf clover that I keep in my shoe, so I can play kickball good!"
At the idea of how to lead water back, however, Rose just hummed in thought. She didn't see a bucket anywhere, but... maybe she was thinking about it all wrong! Why bring just a little bit of water, when she could bring as much as they needed! Without warning Torino, she tossed out her worm friend, the Orthworm. He quickly formed, twisting about as his arms popped out.
"Me oh my, if it ain't Torino and Rose, back again. How can I help ya?"
"Eat dirt!" Rose replied with a giggle, and despite it sounding like an insult, it wasn't one at all. "I need you to carve a small little path to funnel some water back to an egg!" She'd pause, glancing at the egg stuck to her hand. "Not this egg. A plant's egg!"
"Hah, do birds still fly? Course I can eat dirt! You ladies just kick back, relax, and let me go to town. Lead me there!" He squirmed forwards, mouth agape like an endless hole as he charged forwards through the dirt, ripping up the loose earth and leaves, devouring it all as water rushed down behind them, following in its wake. |

The ground shakes, shuddering and jumping like an eager puppy as a new stream is carved into the underbrush. "I love gardening," Torino says, walking briskly beside the massive worm. "My job is making beautiful garden for people, and it would be so easy with a strong worm like this one!" She pats the Orthworm quickly, so as not to get in the way of its industrious wriggling.
Water burbled in their wake, filling the trench and spilling over in lush splashes. Soon they reached the egg spot, and the dark blush of water spread through the soil to embrace their buried eggs. "So easy!" Torino said, beaming at Rose. "You have green fingers!"
With light, water, and deep soil, it was only minutes until the earth around the eggs started to shake. |

"Oh, only sometimes do I got the green fingers!" Rose beamed right back, grinning ear to ear as she continued to clutch her egg close to her chest. "I like to finger paint at school! Dip my hands right into the little tub of green!" She immediately giggled, rocking back and forth on her feet as she watched her Orthworm finish up his digging.
When finished eating his full of dirt, the worm didn't bother climbing out of the water that followed him. In fact, he just lazily laid in it, allowing the cool liquid to wash over his steel body. "Ahhh, now this is the life. This is some good dirt! Got me happier than a dead pig in the sunshine."
"... What?" Rose just blinked at the worm, not knowing how to respond.
"You know, Grinnin' like a possum eatin' a sweet tater?"
"... Umm-" A few more blinks, silence.
"Uh," The worm replied this time, seemingly shifting about a bit at the awkward moment. "Really happy."
"Oh! Okay!" Rose immediately grinned back, and the Orthworm let out an awkward sigh of relief before he immediately attempted to change the conversation as he noticed the earth shaking where the egg was.
"Well looksie here! That egg is gonna hatch faster than green grass goes through a goose!"
"Oh! It's shaking!" She immediately dropped down on all fours, carefully setting her own egg to the side for now so she could watch the plant-egg hatch. |

"Oh! I think I know," said Torino, clapping her hands together in determination. It was hard being a second language speaker, and Rose's worm had a strong accent, but she could puzzle its words together through context.
"You are...happy," she summarised. "From the sunshine. Or the tayters," she ventured, losing confidence in her translation. She righted the conversation swiftly. "And the eggs are hatching fast, like green goose eggs!" That part was easy, and as they watched the pair of eggs sounds turned into motion. Captured light slid through the growing cracks, and she laughed in joy and wonder as the egg shell fell away to reveal her newest friend: a plant!

"Nah, see because Goose- You know Geese eat- Aww, f'rget it." The Orthworm replied in response to Torino, rolling his eyes. There were far more important things in play right now. An egg was hatching before their very eyes!
Rose dropped down straight to the ground on all fours, leaning in close to watch the egg hatch. It was a miracle! She had hatched one of her eggs before, Cheese! He was still a baby, but he was a dog! That made sense! A plant from an egg was a wondrous sight! "Woah-" She giggled to herself, slowly shifting into a sitting position on the ground as she wiggled her fingers in a wave. "You're a cutie!"
All the while, her own egg that had been sit down suddenly began to shift. It rolled aside slightly, the only witness of this being the worm, who swiftly spoke up. "Now, ah don't mean to interrupt but-"
"Shh!" Rose held her fingers in front of her lips, politely shushing her friend. "The baby hasn't said its first words yet!"
As if in response to the egg moving, a sudden shadow up above darkened the skies, almost like a cloud, except the sound of buzzing wings were swiftly echoing across the Rookery from up above. Of course, Rose didn't even notice, too entranced.
"... Uh, Rose?"
"Shh!" |

As the buzzing grew, Torino lifted her own baby sprouting up into the sunshine. "It is so cute!" she fawned, loving the little bundle of bud and leaves like only an arborist could. "Strong leaves and good..." she frowned, as the words for varies sections of basic botanical anatomy fled her mind like hummingbirds. "Good everything!" she concluded, giving the Petilil a brilliant smile. "Your name is Girasoli. It means 'turn your face to the light of the sun'."
The Petilil squeaked in excitement, and the pair cuddled in the sunlight, blissfully unaware of the rising swarm in the trees around them. Shrill, furious buzzing layered itself in the air like a wild lasagna. The meat sauce of territorial Beedrill. The handmade pasta sheets of crawling, crackling Sizzlipedes. And of course the delicious, creamy cheese sauce that only clashing Pinsir could provide. And somewhere in there, there was a sprinkling of fresh herbs and grated cheese that spoke of something more dangerous and volitile.
"Are you two going to do anything about these damn bugs?" asked Simone, who had his stick lodged in a Pinsir's mouth as a Sizzlipede snapped hotly at his tail. "Because I really hate getting stung."

"Oh! There's bugs everywhere!" Rose responded with a shock, suddenly glancing around and seeing all the little buggies, and big buggies too all over the place! Beedrill buzzing with an intense drone that drowned out the rushing of the breeze and the water stream.
"Ah've been trying to tell y'all!" Spoke Kentucky Tucker, the Orthworm suddenly tangling with a few curious Durant that was snipping at their steel form. "You kept shushing!"
"... Oops." Rose replied a bit sheepishly, moving to try and pick up her egg to protect it from all the new bug invasion, only to find it moving and rolling, shifting back and forth. "Oh! Eggy! Don't run!" She'd scramble forth, moving to finally grab the egg that jumped and lurched in her grip.
"Woah, woah- What's gotten into you eggie?" The egg did not respond, it simply jerked in her own hands as a few cracks began to form. "Oh! You're hatching! You're hatching!"
Suddenly, a massive Scyther landed before her, catching her by surprise. Her eyes widened in surprise, seeing the razor-sharp blades wielded ever so carefully, slicing the grass where it landed. "U-uh, hello there. Nice buggy-"
Crack. Another large crack formed in the egg, and then another massive scyther landed in front of them. More and more suddenly descended from the cloud of bugs above, joining a small swarm growing, catching Rose entirely off guard. She steps back, only to slip and stumble onto her butt, the egg still cradled into her arms.
"We have come." A voice finally spoke from one of the Scyther, stepping forth. "To witness the hatching of the next of our kind. The next warrior to be welcomed into this world."
Some of the other Scyther seemed to move, picking up the rampant Pokemon, and defending the scene of the hatching. Pinsir tackled and tossed, the Durants blown away, the area was still swarming, but nothing would interfere with the hatching of a new warrior.
The pressure was suddenly overwhelming on Rose, who stood to her feet with a nervous look on her face. The egg continued to crack and wobble, a new life to be born.
"Tell us, child," The Elder Scyther suddenly spoke up again, looking into Rose's eyes. "As the guardian of this warrior, it is customary for you to welcome to this world by calling forth their true name. What is this name?"
"I- I uh-" She'd look over at Torino, Simone the Grookey, and then finally over at Kentucky Tucker, who was laying fairly low, trying not to interrupt the proceedings. Rose had no idea what to say, she hadn't even thought of a name yet! Her silence seemed to echo, as the rumble of the bugs began to silence in the moment.
Her mind wracked with ideas, only to just say the first thing that came to her mind. She held the cracking egg above her head, shouting out. "Beans!"
"Beans! "Beans!" "Beans!"
The swarm started to chant, as the egg continued to rumble and shudder, before finally, cracking in a burst of light- A newborn Scyther stood before Rose, taller than she was. Their eyes wide, slowly looking around at the world, confused and unsure what was going on. Scythes born already razor sharp, ready for combat from the day it was born, despite its lack of knowledge and training.
And yet, Rose's eyes damn near sparkled. "Beans..." |
