"Wow. I think that might've been a bit overkill." Hex commented, watching as everyone decimated the poor, dopey pokemon. After Spruce ngetotiated with General Goomy, Hex followed the group, fluttering upward. The Goomy seemed reluctant, but hopefully he should keep to his word and lead them to the Mudkip and Emolga. With all of them coming after the outlaw, he wouldn't stand a chance. The Goomy began to lead them into a colder, damp cav. Jagged stalagmites dripped water onto the rugged stone floor with a [i]plink[/i] sound that echoed throughout the cavern. It was mostly quiet if you excluded the occasional whisper between pokemon or the chittering of a wild pokemon. Her wings began to flutter up a gust, preparing herself for the encounter. Mudkip were usually wild little things. Most of the mudkip she had met before were a bit unstable, muttering to themselves about how the world was some giant simulation and we were just pawns. Not the best pokemon to have as an outlaw.

The Goomy was painfully slow. As he chugged upward, slowly dragging himself through the cave, she noticed the ghost of a smile playing on it's face. It probably thought the Mudkip would easily overpower the explorers, or just escape with the hostage. She couldn't tell for sure. Hex began to flutter her wings rapidly, preparing a gust in case the Goomy attempted to betray them or the Mudkip ambush them. As Hex continued upward, she noticed Matt and Josh had joined the group. Luckily, they'd survived the shock. Josh had a couple of visible charred marks on him from the electricity, but otherwise he looked good as new. "Hey," Hex said, fluttering by Josh. "That M is pretty strong, right?"
