<span style="color: green">“Well, with that plan.  Lets hope we don’t get completely and utterly lost.  That is one of the dangers of a forest like this.”</span>Jake said as he looked into the deep forest.  Even from where he stood he could see where it got darker and darker as they would go deeper into the woods.  Of course, at the mention of someone missing, Jake had to look around.  Eleyna was right.  Audree wasn’t with them.  He hadn’t seen where she had wandered off to.  He remembered that he hadn’t seen her at all since they had entered the forest.<br/><br/><span style="color: green">“Audree is missing… Should we be worried?”</span>In all honestly, he wasn’t terribly worried.  She was a trainer, and he was pretty sure she was smart enough to avoid a lot of troubles.  Especially if she was alone.  Thus when Eleyna offered for someone to go first, Jake didn’t really hesitate.<span style="color: green">“Eve, stay close to me.  No wandering off now.”</span>He said before taking a step into and started moving through the dense forest.<br/><br/>He was glad he had told Eve to stay close, and that she listened as they moved deeper, and the thick underbrush actually started to become a problem as there was no real path that Jake wasn’t making.  At least Eve had fur to protect her.  Jake’s cloths kept getting caught on one thing or another.  If he was unlucky, after today he would only have one set of cloths left… and a pair of swim trunks.  He did not want to go around in only swim trunks.<br/><br/>They finally stopped in an area next to a monolith like rock.  Jake stopped when he felt Eleyna’s weight fall on his shoulder as she used him to stop herself from falling over.<span style="color: green">“You alright?”</span>He asked, looking back at her and helping her stand again.  Eve only glanced at them before she caught sight of the eyes watching the group from above.  There are some benefits of having to look up at everyone.  Eve watched them before she saw Jake moving.  The pokemon hiding in the trees didn’t look like they were going to be a threat so she didn’t call out to them.<br/><br/>Jake, once he was sure Eleyna was on her feet, looked around at the paths they had to move.  One was towards a thicket of shrubbery where he caught sight of movement.  The second was not far from the path.  A barely passable gap in the trees led to some bright rays of sunlight shining in that direction.  Jake only spoke up after re-adjusting his pack with all his stuff before speaking up.<span style="color: green">“I’m going to head out that way for a little bit.  I am curious what I can find in the area.”</span>He said as he pointed towards the clearing.<br/><br/>That was when he started moving, though as he got close he looked at the flowers before picking Eve up.  Not sure he wanted her sticking her nose in them like she would likely do.  The thicket with the movement had also caught his curiosity, but the arrangement of trees was a little more mysterious.<div class="messageTextEndMarker"> </div>
