Robyn saw that expression on Alex's face. Ha, they were definitely on the same thing when it came to Hotaru and Jade. She then whipped out her camera and then aimed it at the nearing buildings. She snapped a photo and then looked at it, happy on what she got. No, she was not taking a picture of the buildings and their progress - but rather the sky that looked just as gleeful as those in the town. As the music reached her ears and then Alex exclaiming that they had finally made it, she grinned and then pumped her fist in the air. "Alright! Let's get this show on the road guys!"

She then turned to the Vulpix that was released from its Pokeball who turned and growled at his owner. His reply to the Pokemon almost made her laugh out loud. What an answer! He wasn't even trying to be subtle about it. But, she guessed that boys will be boys. It's just that this one was way more honest than the other ones. Hotaru seemed to brush it off but Robyn sure saw that small blush she had one her face which made her grin even more. A thought passed her mind and she ran ahead of them, stopped and turned around, camera in hand and lens pointed at the two.

*Snap*

Robyn had just taken a picture of Hotaru and Jade. It was a great shot. "A memento." She told the two with a wink and then waiting for them to come to her and then proceeded to walk by their side. "Anyway, I'm really excited for this festival. Who knows how many pictures I'll be able to take!" And besides, this was the first event she will ever be doing in Alola so she's really looking forward to it.

Alex smiled as Robyn started to take photos of their surroundings. Alex smirked as his suspicions were confirmed as Jade made a comment on how he thought Hotaru was cute. All Alex could seem to do was smile, like a never ending wave of happiness kept crashing over him, sweeping him into a sea of bliss, washing away all of the bad thoughts, the bad memories, all of it submerged under glee. While he liked the picture that Robyn took, he decided to take a mental picture of this moment...

They Last Longer.

As they got closer to the gateway the sloppy dirt path started to form into a formed road. In the center near the from a band was playing on a small stage, with a Pokéball carefully carved into the wood. Alex could make out a building with a red roof near the right of the stage, and figured that was the Pokémon center. "C'mon! The Pokémon center is this way!" Alex exclaimed, walking beside his friends to the red roofed building.

Jade saw the flash and before he knew it this moment was immortalized on a square picture as it was handed to him as a momento from Robyn. He looked at it and smiled. He never even thought of getting a picture with Hotaru. He raised it up for Hotaru to see. "Look at that Hotaru, its official now. From here on out I am your travel buddy. Friend so to speak." He exclaimed.

Hotaru looked at the picture and her blush returned. The reason.... It was seen very clearly that she was blushing in it from what Jade had said. She had to smile though at his next choice of words. She had to hand it to him. He did have a way with them.
"I would like that very much Jade. First things first,... Lets stop by the Center. I can speak for us both and our Pokemon. I could use something to eat." She said. She still wanted to see if this festival would sell any clothing orientated to it. She would like to wear it through out the event.

Jade nodded and looked at the picture one more time before placing it in his pocket. He decided he would keep it. It is a momento for everything. His old life was no more. This was his new life.

He could see the center himself and saw that the pokeball was carved from wood. The Alolans liked to keep it natural he supposed. The thought of a good meal before they headed to the festival would be nice.

Happy that the two didn't get too angry at the photo, Robyn just smiled at them. She stopped momentarily when the arch came into perfect view. She didn't say anything to her friends as they continued walking. She brought her camera up to her face again and snapped another photo. She put it back down and looked at the picture. It was the start of her adventure here in Alola along with the other three. She was looking forward to what will happen to them.

Robyn hurried to catch up with the others. Once they saw where the Pokemon Center is, her eyes lit up in happiness. Finally! She then averted her eyes form the center and then looked at the band. Ooh, they were pretty good. She made a mental note to take a picture of them too later on once she has had her fill. She looked towards Growlie who was eagerly waiting for her to go inside the Pokemon Center. She let out a small chuckle and then entered along with her friends.

The road out of Hau'oli City was rather uninteresting... though Kazurai could not say the same, however, of the sea view. It was nothing like the coastline back home: it had its own sort of charm to it, rather like what he had seen of Mystriver Lake in that regard. There wasn't time to pause for a photo, however, as there was a long road ahead before reaching Iki Town. Past another Pokémon Center, Kazurai spotted a signpost leading the way.

With Kei content to run beside him, Kazurai took the hill in stride. All those years of fitness training by running up the hills at the base of Platinos's mountains were paying off. By the time they reached flat ground again it had taken a decent chunk of time, though neither of the two were showing signs of tiring. Soon, music reached Kazurai's ears as they approached the outskirts of Iki Town, and he paused to take in the sights.

The place had a bit of a rustic look to it, Kazurai thought as he passed the archway, following the music up ahead. The statuary around the place was odd as well: he couldn't pick out any recognisable insignias or Pokémon in the carvings. "Hmm... I'm not sure how I'd properly describe something like this to the family," he noted as he passed one of the statues. Kei stuck close to him, though when Kazurai glanced down at her, she had a look on her face as if she was hungry. Probably from all that running. And if he was being honest with himself, he felt the same. He hadn't eaten since getting off the Stormchaser... and even then, it wasn't much.

"Let's see if we can find some food. Something bigger than snacks. There's got to be a table or three at an event such as this," Kazurai thought aloud as he moved through the festival grounds, Kei hot on his heels.

"Yeah, Absols are cool too. But they just can't beat Mightyenas. They're very catlike and independent. Now Mightyena's? Loyal, obedient, and cooperative. Just can't beat them." Dirk walked up to the counter of the Pokemon Center and handed Dirk's ball to the Nurse. He leaned against the counter while he waited for her to heal him, and checked his map. "So yeah, If you want to head down to Iki Town early, now's the best time."

"I will probably see you later than." Kotone said thankfully with a slight bow of her head. "Lets see if I take this path should lead me to Iki town" Kotone said speaking to no one in general looking at the map she also made to purchase till she can either hopefully a get her pokedex updated or b get a new one. "Perhaps we can also find another pokemon to join us hey Aoide?" She said to the swablu that was once more resting upon her head. as she left the pokemon center and quickly started to proceed upon the path to Iki town according to the map "Perhaps we can even find a rockruff that we seen pictures of huh Aoide" She said to the swablu on her getting a small trill in response from the bird.
