Claudia was quite awed when she found one of the seeds. It was... HUGE!... and heavy, too! Wonder what kind of plant would sprout from THAT! Probably some kind of huge, awesome uber tree from ancient times that would almost look ethereal or something!<br/><br/>... but then, something caught attention.<br/><br/>YES! Finally! That was what she had been looking for! Another small ship in a bottle!<br/><br/>... hmmm... that one is... peculiar. She looked at it intently, inspecting every detail about it.<br/><br/>---------------------------------------------<br/><br/>All of this only served to annoy Flavia more and more. Why didn't he ask her instead of Brenda? Something's on her face or something?<br/><br/>... and then, being brought forward like that and...<br/><br/>"Er... WAIT! WHAT?" for a moment, the slits that usually were her eyes opened, her eyes actually visible for a moment. They were lightish brown, like that of a tree... a color that was unusual for a Pokegirl and more common for humans... usually a sign of a Thresholded Pokegirl or of a Pokegirl born out of the union between a human and a Pokegirl. The eyes were also abnormally small and had reddish borders, the veins almost visible, as if her eyes were tired...<br/><br/>The mole Pokegirl turned to Brenda... "Starter? Me? NO!"<br/><br/>... but then, she quickly remembered the Tamer and closed her eyes almost completely anew, her eyes reduced once again to only slits. She turned to him and smiled in a nervous, shy way.<br/><br/>"I-I mean... of course! Yes, I'm a Starter! Teeheehee! Sorry... I was just kind of... nervous... yeah... I was just nervous..."<br/><br/>---------------------------------------------<br/><br/>Elysia remained silent as well, walking at his side.<br/><br/>... but then, after a moment, she had a funny feeling and looked into the distance.<br/><br/>... smoke?<br/><br/>"Earnest? Wait up! Stop just a moment! I think there's something's wrong over there..."
