The day moved on as they walked through the day across the plains.  About an hour after they started playing, Eve got exhausted with her play with the pachirisu.  This ended up with him carrying the Eevee while he and Audree had their chat.  It was actually rather pleasant chat on a beautiful day.  And definitely long enough to be enjoyed.  Too bad they weren’t able to arrive at the lake with some of the stuff him and Audree had been talking about. How she lived on an island, and a beachfront property.  It sounded like an awesome place to grow up.  And he would love to learn to surf.  Too bad none of that would be available at a lake in the wild, but she had said she was curious about the lake beach.<br/><br/>Once they found a place to make camp, Jake was definitely happy of the fact that he had been carrying all his camping gear when the whole hell had started.  Unlike some, he actually had a tent that he could set up, unroll his sleeping bag inside, and actually have some semblance of comfort.  And he also helped set up a place for a campfire, and helped gather some of the wood they could find.  A good place to cook some food later.  Once everything for his section of the camp was set up, and his pack stuck inside the tent before zipping it up and walking away.<br/><br/>Jake, instead of sitting around, walked off a few minutes away before he found a good place on the side of the hill to just sit and admire the scenery, the glinting of the sun setting over the lake in the far off distance.  Perfect chance to relax and think.  As he sat Eve sat in his lap, curled up and resting as Jake pet between her ears.<span style="color: Green">“Well, it looks like we fell in with an interesting group of people eve.  Other than Jay and his over-inflated ego and sense of self-worth, they should be a very good group to be with.  Seeing some of the people that were in that town, we could have definitely done much worse.  Jay may be fine after he is knocked down a peg or two.   We can work on that later.  I think he only caught one pokemon, and it will take him time to train it.”</span><br/><br/>All that he was talking to his pokemon, and best friend, who just replied with her name like all pokemon.  Followed by her nuzzling into the hand that was petting her between her ears.  It was a peaceful place to wait for the sunset.  Even if it was a bit in the middle of nowhere.  But he could see off a long distance away to the lake, the peaks of the mountains, and a lot of the lands between them all.<span style="color: Green">“Audree seemed nice as well.  I like her.  Think she will stick around, or get fed up with us.”</span><div class="messageTextEndMarker"> </div>
