Hey, I'm sorry for not starting, I was just unmotivated before, but I'm really depressed right now and I need some time

```scence from mountain-peak moved here with Kukui and Molayne!```

"I was kidding! You should know I'm not going to let you get hurt Ku!" Molayne sighed slightly while his Dugtro looked disappointed. The pokemon was so excited to unleash its strength but Molayne wasn't going to risk anyone's safety even though Kukui could probably take it. Molayne laughed softly at Kukui beating his chest, he shook his head but smiled. "Yes, yes. It isn't pretty looking at the moment haha..." The blonde scratched the back of the head and chuckled nervously. "Why thank you, Ku! You're always so optimistic" Mo smiled once again, he's going to get serious smile lines one day with this cheery demeanor of his. "That is true! Islands are usually lush with all sorts of life, mostly due to lack of human interaction I'm guessing, Alola is a special case though. We've bonded with pokemon and made a habitable ecosystem for both worlds!" Molayne's major intertest of study might be the stars but he loves to talk about ecosystems and pokemon in general, maybe that's why the males were able to get along so well as kids.

"As I suspected, I guess I have to work on my stamina. My legs are tired heh-" Molayne sighed softly and started to stretch his legs a bit, just to be sure he doesn't die from the waist down when descending the mountain. "Too late? Carefree as ever... Oh, how I wish we swapped personalities sometimes." Kukui was certainly right the blonde would follow with somewhat of a tiptoe making sure not to trip on his way down. The mention of "Deep trouble" Made the steel user gulp, he hurridly got behind Kukui and watched his steps. "Why do you sound so excited? An earthquake would be awful, that would lead to so many horrific events" The thought of the volcano they're heading toward erupting, the land splitting open, or large tsunamis heading their way made the man weak in the knees, hu buckled a little but followed behind Kukui. 'Hopefully, you aren't leading us to our deaths Ku...'

Turns out it wasn't lava but hot springs! What a turn of events, the area was flooded with steam making the lanky man sweat. "I'm already skinny enough, sweating is just going to make me even thinner haha, but this place reminds me of Akala Island! They have a resort with hot springs!" Molayne wiped the sweat off his forehead from underneath his bangs and laughed softly, he looked around taking in the scenery around him and gasped softly when certain sediment was in clear view. "Sandstone and Shale! They might be quite common especially in areas like a hot spring but they still are fascinating! I sound like Olivia don't I haha" The man walked over to the large deposits and examine closely but the fogginess of the area didn't let him see too well, it was fogging his glasses up too.
