Maybe there was another jungle around? Or at least anywhere better than this creepy forest he found himself in. There was something about the light shifting through the fog that was rather unsettling. Just to be safe he made sure Larvitar was sticking right next to him as they walked around. He did also have Egg and Egg 2 with him, but they were snoozing in their respective sleeves and he didn’t want to disturb them. “This place uh, geeze, this place sure is um, creepy? Yeah, it’s uh, it’s creepy.” <You think so? Huh, I was going to say annoying with all this fog.> “Really? You don’t, uh, think that the, you know, fog makes it all…um. Scary?” Larvitar looked up at Manish for a moment before turning back down the path. <Not really.> “Oh…” Larvitar’s nonchalance was actually going a long way towards calming Manish’s nerves. Well, that was until he heard a twig snap behind him. Manish whipped around and stared into the fog. “He…hello?”

A wave of mushrooms spread out from around him and he could feel both Egg and Egg 2 start to stir. He froze his waving arms, maybe if he stayed still enough he could keep them asleep. But he did still have to do something about the very angry looking pokemon in front of him. “Uh…Larvitar? How um, how do you feel about, well, I mean, feel free to say no. It’s totally fine. No pressure. Um. You okay with fighting?” Larvitar looked up at Manish for a moment before standing between him and the Sneasel. <Sure, I’m fine with it. That’s very nice of you to ask.> Manish beamed at the praise. “Yeah, yeah of course. Um. Okay, use uh, Struggle Bug?” <Not a problem.> With that, Larvitar moved up and jumped on the Sneasel, biting it as many times as her little bug teeth could manage.

It took a few swipes before one landed well enough to knock her off. The two backed off from each other for a brief moment to catch their breath. “Okay, um, let’s see, now use, uh Supersonic? What’s that?” Larvitar decided to answer that question just by showing Manish. She opened her mouth and let out a sound that at first Manish couldn’t hear, but it grew more intense and lower in pitch until he could make out the awful ringing and had to cover his own ears. Sneasel was in a lot worse shape. It let out another scream of it’s own and tried to back away from the noise, but to no avail.

Manish started to feel pretty bad for the little guy. This was not a dignified way to fight. But the Sneasel wasn’t down yet. It managed to right itself enough to charge at Larvitar and land a hefty Scratch on her. Larvitar slid backwards a ways before catching herself. The Sneasel was panting heavily, but Larvitar wasn’t looking too hot either. She was clearly starting to take a beating and Manish really really hoped that they could end this fight before much longer. He really would have to get over his minor (major) fear of Shrines and find one in Asper. Letting his pokemon stay hurt just because he was scared wasn’t okay. But first he had to finish this fight. “You uh, you okay enough to um. Keep going?” Larvitar took a deep breath before straightening up as much as a purple fluff ball could. <I’m doing peachy, let’s just hurry this up.> “Right, yeah, right. Okay, next. Poison Fang? Geeze, that sounds, uh, vicious.” <Oh it is.> Larvitar let her saliva start to drip down her fangs, coating them with her venom. She then dashed forward and chomped down on the Sneasel while it was still stumbling about.

He scooped up Larvitar and took off. He hadn’t been to the Shrine in this area out of fear, and now Larvitar was paying for it. He had to take her to get helped. But also, there was another fear now, what if he did it wrong? What if he was condemning her as well? But he couldn’t think like that, not right now. Larvitar needed help and he needed to get her away from the Sneasel. Manish shot one look behind his shoulder to see that the Sneasel wasn’t too terribly interested in chasing them. Rather, it looked like it was tending to it’s own injuries while they ran away.

I was out for, what? Ten minutes tops? I’m fine, I promise.> Despite Larvitar’s words, Manish couldn’t help but hover over her as they walked back through the woods. “But are you sure? You don’t feel uh, like you’re um. Going anywhere?” <The only place I’m going is insane if ya keep up with asking me all these questions. I’m fine, the Shrine healed me, and I want revenge on that dumb Sneasel.> Larvitar would roll her eyes if she was capable of showing such a thing. “Okay, okay yeah, okay, you’re okay. But. Um. Do we really need to uh, go find the um. The Sneasel?” A trail of mushrooms was sprouting behind Manish as if they were desperately trying to grow as fast as his long legs could walk. <Yes I wanna fight it! Also, you know, it might be a good idea to have Sneasel on your team if it’s that strong.> Manish thought about the last time he caught a pokemon that was strong enough to knock out his pokemon and frowned. Mumble was definitely not worth the effort. Or at least not for him, maybe whoever ended up with that awful Piplup loved him. “Fine. We can at least uh, fight it. But if you get knocked out again, that’s it! We’re getting out of these woods and are going to go explore somewhere else.” Larvitar stared at him for a moment before nodding, <deal. Now come on, I think we’re almost back. I recognize that fog cloud.> Manish wasn’t totally sure how someone could recognize a cloud, but he was fairly certain he would lose any argument he tried against Larvitar. It didn’t take long till they came upon Sneasel, who was still looking rather worse for the wear. <You! I’m back for seconds!> Larvitar screamed. The Sneasel looked up and gave a hiss. “Um. Poison Fang again?” Manish mumbled, ready to grab Larvitar and run away again.

Sneasel gave a horrifying screech that Manish was fairly certain would haunt his nightmares before passing out. “Geeze. That felt. Uh, I mean, good job and all, but that felt…uh, unfair?” <Yeah, I’m glad I won and all, but dang. That was brutal. Oh well, spoils to the victor or whatever.> “Right. Yeah, um, we should probably get it some help.” Manish walked up to the Sneasel and grimaced at the oozing poisoned bite. “Oh geeze buddy, oh man. Don’t worry, we’ll uh, look, I’ll catch you and then you’ll get all, geeze, all healed up.” He tapped the pokemon with a pokeball and looked back at Larvitar. “Is the poison stuff always this, uh, gross looking?” Larvitar let out a snort. <Coming from the man that can only grow poisonous mushrooms?> “WHAT!?”
