The Professor scratched his chin, leaning them to ponder what he was thinking about. The sounds of assorted PokÃ©mon playing could be heard in the background. Lulu rested her arms on Josh's head and leaned lightly on him.<br/><br/>After a minute or two, the old man finally piped in. "Well, I'm not sure what to do about your Team Rocket situation other than lay low, but I do know how you can get back to Pewter. I already planned on picking up my grandson who is in the city right now. I can pick the both of you up and drop you off."<br/><br/>Lulu's tail wagged happily, "Thank you Professor." Oak smiled back, "You are certainly welcome Lulu. I am a bit tempted, if you two don't mind, to bring you back to my lab-" Lulu appeared to stiffen at the word 'lab', and suddenly threw her arms over Josh's head, clinging for dear life while shaking her own head rapidly, hair going everywhere. Oak appeared startled, and started to shake his hands apologetically, "Alright! You don't have to come to my lab. I understand it brings up bad memories. My apologies."
