Jake grumbled a little to himself as he looked behind them and could easily see the way completely blocked, and while looking around the rest of the room he saw no other way out of the clearing.  It looked like the trees and brush surrounding the area he was now trapped in was too thick to pass.  At least for him anyway.  Eve would probably be able to squeeze through the underbrush.<br/><br/>There wasn’t really much attention he could pay to the surrounding as he moved away from the cloud of dust and towards the large tree in the center.  His eyes locked on roots of the tree at the center of the clearing.  He had no idea what they were, but he could see that there was something poking out of between them.  What were they?  With the roots wrapping around them though they must have been there for an unbelievable amount of time.  They kind of looked like old bones… maybe?  He needed to get closer.<br/><br/>Eve actually enjoyed the feel of the moss on the pads of her feet.  If she wasn’t sure this was a bad situation, then she would actually enjoy it.  Probably would normally be running around, and jumping into the small pools of water and generally be trouble if they hadn’t just avoided whatever that pollen was.  If her trainer hadn’t been so apprehensive.  She stayed by his side as Jake walked forward. Though she did go over to one of the pools to sniff the water a little before she began to drink some.  Lapping up the clean, clear water.<br/><br/>His eyes as he moved from the roots and the trapped remains that he could barely identify as even remains.  After looking at them for a moment his eyes moved up to the trees and soon fell on the glowing Leaf stones.  It would be the first time he had seen a leaf stone in a completely natural state.  Before today, he had only remembered seeing some that had been collected and either stored or sold.  They were actually beautiful in their natural state.<br/><br/>He would have approached to touch and try plucking one from the tree.  Like the lightning stone he had in his pack.  In fact, Jake was doing just that, reaching up to try touching one before something stirred in the clearing.  It caused Jake to jump and scramble back away from the tree, and drew Eve’s attention from the clean pool of water.  The small pokemon immediately put herself between Jake and the bulbasaur with her ears laying back.  She barely contained a growl as she watched the plant pokemon.<br/><br/>Jake watched it too as it made itself visible and watched them in return.  This one at least he recognized.  It was hard not recognize a pokemon that was a starter pokemon in some regions.  Jake stared at it for a moment until he realized it wasn't moving.  It seemed too comfortable.  After that he raised his hands infront of him in a placating manner.  Trying to show he wasn’t a theat.  Jake wasn’t in the mood to catch a pokemon by beating it down.<span style="color: green">“Hey… Sorry.  Didn’t mean to intrude.”</span>He said before reached behind into a side pouch on his pack and pulled out some pokemon food.  What better way to appease something than by offering it some food?  He held it out to the pokemon.  In the process offering a single bit of kibble to Eve.  Who took it to show it was food.<div class="messageTextEndMarker"> </div>
