I didn't get much a response. Did I say anything? Eh, it was time to help out another team.
"Well, alright then." I responded, hoping this wasn't going to be another one of those adventures. "You sure Anthony isn't crazy though?" As I tried to point to Anthony, I realised both Spruce and Anthony had left. "Classic." I said, glumly and turning to everyone else. Sure enough, Celes brushed past me, following Spruce outdoors and mumbling with him. I decided to leave as well, preferring to leave the lobby which was starting to get crowded with different groups. Kamina slithered past me, somehow fitting through the entrance to the outside with me. I pretended I didn't take notice, instead preferring to scan the outside world for anything dangerous.
Honestly though, it was kind of a normal day for Allure Town, save for the few clouds gathering in clumps in the sky. You had the market set up selling all sorts of weird items on the plaza, whereas there were a few Pokemon who were looking up at the ominous clouds. Reactions were mixed; fire Pokemon seemed quite annoyed and disturbed, whereas water and grass Pokemon just continued on with their day, albeit with a smile. I was somewhat peeved considering that electricity and water didn't mix too well, at least according to physics and NOT laws of Pokemon strengths and weaknesses.
To be honest, I still wasn't too intent on following Anthony. Sure, we were going somewhere and I was actually pretty enthusiastic at first. Problem was, we were going on a hunch. A telepathic message, apparently. Who's to say that Pokemon was still alive? "So, how's everyone doing?" I asked, though I wasn't sure if I was going to get a response. Anthony picked up the pace by having Kamina pluck him onto his head, surprising me. It wasn't the fact he surprised me by having Anthony on him, but rather his sudden spasm of speaking just kinda came out of nowhere. "Uh, NO." I tensely dismissed him, preferring to just continue forwards without much to think about. I was kinda free in a way, now that Davis didn't want me anymore. No need to worry about him anymore.
Problem was, we suddenly had company. And we didn't even leave the town yet. Some boxing Pokemon who somehow never missed leg day showed up, blocking everyone. Noticeably me and Kamina, and I was trying to get away from him before. I couldn't help but start snickering. "I hate to inform you, but we don't exactly spar and prove our strengths to one-another in this day and age. What are we, Pokemon trainers?" I didn't know whether to be annoyed or just continue snickering, but I certainly wanted to continue on with this adventure. A little warm-up before the fight was actually not a bad idea, but (apparently) time was of the essence.
