Leyna was only half listening to the others as she sifted through the papers in the box, stopping when she came across a folded, old map. Without thinking, she stuffed the other bits of paper into her bag and opened the map, looking at it for any information on nearby towns.<br/><br/>When Melissa said that her earlier assertion to leave was void due to the general consensus to stay put, Leyna simply stood up with the map, looked at Melissa and said,<span style="color: blue">I'm going.</span>She looked past them out the door at the storm clouds gathering on the horizon above the sea.<span style="color: blue">Storm...</span>she muttered, then realized she was still in a conversation, blushed slightly and continued,<span style="color: blue">Uhm, and there's a storm coming. Mother told me not to be caught in a storm. Without food or water, we wouldn't last for days...</span>She glanced at the signs of continued fornication, blushed profusely and turned around shuddering.<span style="color: blue">I... ehm, I'd rather make a go for a town than be caught here during a tropical storm.</span>She nodded, then whispered quietly,<span style="color: blue">And I'm not going to be trapped <i>here</i> anyway.</span><br/><br/><span style="color: blue">Uhm, I could use one of those Ponchos, if your still offering... and uh, that's... it. I guess.</span>She took the poncho if it was offered and stuffed it in her bag, quickly exiting the shack, not waiting to see if anyone followed. Once she was a few feet away, she took a deep breath and let it all out as a prolonged sigh.<br/><br/>She took a long looked at the map, charted a course to what she determined to be a reasonable location for civilization, and started forward. A train wreck and Tentacruel attack wasn't going to deter her. She had planned for this moment her whole life, and wasn't about to let a few stumbling blocks stop her on her Pokemon training quest.<div class="messageTextEndMarker"> </div>
