BUMPS IN THE NIGHT:origin()/pre00/6ac3/th/pre/i/2015/250/b/c/a_forest_scene_by_bakakaetzchen-d98qkmo.png) !!! CLICK IMAGE FOR MUSIC !!!
A fire crackled in the corner of the campsite, projecting long shadows on the surrounding area. The light cast by the flames danced across the dark trunks of the trees, twisting and curling in obscure shapes and providing a small radius of light. The fire itself was pulsating, the glowing embers seemed to move in rhythm with the flames, matching every sweep. It was mesmerizing to watch, colors of orange and red gave way to yellow and white near the center, where the emanating heat was the greatest.
Chail huddled close to the flames, the winter air stalking the campfire. Chia, meanwhile, was fast asleep in her little sleeping bag, complete with a few picked flowers bundled and set beside, and a striped blanket laying atop the Skiddo. A splash echoed from the nearby Risa River- small dark fish Pokemon darted over the browns of the river gravel between shadows. Chail and his Skiddo were travelling to see some family in Shaula Town, which was still a ways away. The runt goat grew tired alongside Chail, and the two admitted to their fatigue and had set up camp for the night. Even with his bike and a sleeping Chia in the basket, it was only so long before Chail's legs shook like jelly.
Currently, the tired human was sitting in the midst of making some kebabs- as a skilled cook and chef, Chail was carefully tending the food as it began to waft a pungent and savory aroma. Fresh meat the human packed were coupled with fresh peppers and spicy berries that began to ripen around the riverbed. Wild Pokemon had already began to gather around the food, and usually were quelled when Chail offered them some of his roasted marshmallows, or complete s'mores for more demanding Pokemon.
"Doing good, Chia?" The human put a hand on the sleepy Skiddo's head, earning an affirmative bleat. "Your food's almost done, girl, so try and wake up a little, alright?" He ruffled the Skiddo's fur before raising his head... Was that a rustle in the grass?

The forest was quiet, cold, and lonely. Flashes of black and green zipped across the treeline, a pair of travelers making their way through the dense trees. Orion made his way through the forest, hopping from tree to tree whilst piggybacking Draculus through the trees. Orion was silent, deep in thought as he attempted to recall some of his older memories. But just like the night, everything was quiet and lonely inside his little noggin. He'd let out a deep sigh, hopping to another tree, and then to another. The last big revelation he'd had about his past was a few weeks ago after his duel with his old "friend", or I guess.. "ex friend" now. ".....Maybe i should've forced that dude to follow me around instead of-" Orion started, catching a glimpse of light deep withing the forest from the corner of his eye.
Orion paused, landing on a branch before staring over in the general direction of the light, noticing some smoke rising over the trees as well. A bright smile washed over Orion's face- "Oh boy!..... somebodies camping all the way out here?? Awesome.. now i have somebody to bug!" Orion said giddily, beginning to hop frantically toward the light.
As he hopped swiftly and sporadically toward what he ~assumed~ was a fire, Ideas of how he should introduce himself to his future buddy for the night cycled through his head. {Jumpscare..... Threatening deep voice... being a normal person.... GAH.. im practically spoiled for choice aren't I...} Orion chuckled, his smile widening as he neared Chail's campsite.
Draculus, feeling his ride suddenly get 10 times rougher and quicker quickly woke up, growling grumpily and giving Orion severe stink eyes. He heard Orion frantically muttering to himself, and simply assumed from the time that Orion had found somebody to pester, and after seeing a light not too far off, he let out a frustrated sigh.
The two were soon standing on a branch, overlooking a stranger and his pokemon. Orion grinned menacingly, still trying to decide on a fun method to introduce himself and watched as Chail fed pokemon. {Ok got it... ima sneak up behind him and slyly sit next to him without him noticing.... fufufu... i can imagine it now... the look on his face when he notices me roasting marshmallows next to him.."} Orion thought, jumping down from the tree he'd been in into a nearby patch of grass, landing as quietly as he could.
Admittedly, he didn't land perfectly, but regardless he soon started to creep his way over to the campsite, suppressing his laughter as he stopped behind Chail's silhouette. Draculus was still kind of mad about how he'd been woken up earlier, and he really couldn't see himself going back to sleep anymore now that Orion started with his shenanigans again. So he decided to have some fun of his own, chomping down on Orions shoulder so as to get him to yell in pain, which worked.
"OOOOOOWWWWW!!" he yelled, grabbing at his shoulder before his eyes widened, realizing what he'd just done and looking over at chail. Turtwig hopped off of Orions back, a smug smirk present on his face as he made his way to a now surprised campsite, hoping to get in on some of those free marshmallows Chail was giving out earlier.
Orion sighed, grumbling a bit before making a lack luster wave in Chail's direction. "....Tch.. guess i have to do this the boring way......" He groaned, slumping his way over to Chail before holding his arms up in the air and to his sides, his arms drooping slightly as he said- "Suuuuup, my name's Orion Damasco, Whaaats yours..." he asked, slightly miffed at turtwig for ruining his fun.

BUMPS IN THE NIGHT
STRANGER DANGER
Both Chail and his pokemon sprung with surprise as a voice yelled out in alarm only meters behind the two. The breeder whipped around, eyeing a oddly dressed boy and a Turtwig with a black headband. "A-are you alright, sir?" Chail spoke despite his initial surprise, taking a few steps forward while Chia climbed out of her sleeping bag with a wide yawn. Nonetheless, the kid approached and came to a stop near the two.
The now awake Chia quickly toddled over with a gleeful bleat, happy to have more friends. She circled the human and his piggybacking pokemon, eventually moving to stand up on her hind legs and plant her front hooves up against the boy, tail waggling to and fro. After a brief sniff test, the pokemon tried to teeth against the ninja's baggy pants. "Looks like you got a friend." Chail chimed, whistling to call his Pokemon away and back beside the fire, to which the grassy goat obliged.
With the little goat now nuzzled beside her trainer, Chail remembered the earlier introduction of the kid- Orion. "I'm Chail, and this is my partner, Chia." The chef introduced himself and the runt skiddo, who responded with another bleat. "I was just on my way to visit my parents back in Shaula Town- My dad's a REALLY good trainer and breeder. He can commune with Pokemon also, so that's a big help." Chail explained to start some small talk.
And then he caught eye of the lazy Turtwig. "...And whose your Pokemon, there? Turtwig are cool- I almost chose one as my first Pokemon before Chia stole my heart." He remembered seeing his father and his Torterra bust out their Battle Bond on more than one occasion in battles, or to intimidate and drive off wild pokemon that threatened his mass of weaker pokemon from the daycare his mother ran. His dad offered a Turtwig bred from the mighty tortoise as a starter for Chail, but he couldn't leave the skiddo runt Chia unloved and alone.
On the subject of Chia, the goat would skip on over to the Turtwig, dragging the bag of marshmallows over and setting it inbetween the two, though she'd nudge it closer to Draculus with her nose, tail still waggling rapidly.

That... was not quite the reaction Orion had expected after creepily sneaking up to somebody and getting caught. Orion just sorta went along with it though. He'd rather not have to explain his intricately planned plot to spook Chail, it just ruins any future encounters.
He'd sit down next to chail, ignoring the affection that the Skiddo was showing him as he took a quick swipe at the marshmallow bag, grabbing himself two before poking them both into a stick.
Turtwig gratefully accepted the bag of marshmallows after that, slowly and lazily taking bites out of a few marshmallows here and there. Orion just sighed, slowly getting over the bite he'd received earlier. "Oh by the way" he began, recalling he'd never answered chail's question before he'd sat down. "Yeah, im allll good" he'd say, a smile appearing on his face as he roasted some marshmallows.
He'd then start to pay attention to Chail's story, which he started telling a bit after Orion had said he was fine. Orion didn't really ask, but admittedly he would've probably a bit later further into the conversation. As Chail finished, Orion stuffed the stick topped with a burnt marshmallow into his mouth, saying- "Huh... thats neato.. *swallow* but trust me.. you dont want a turtwig.. or at least you dont want MINE!" Orion told Chail, heavily emphasizing on the word mine as he leaned in towards his turtwig, who in turn let out a retaliatory "Turtwig!" as he quickly snapped his head to meet Orion. "-... But you said your dad's a breeder and trainer? What about you mr chail?" Orion asked, smiling innocently and then taking a bite out of his second marshmallow which was a crisp golden brown. Its flavor caused his eyes to sparkle like a child's and his cheeks to go rosy red.
{... Well, this guy might be fun.. lets see how he answers..} Orion thought as he acted enamored by his marshmallows taste, seeing if he could gain something from this encounter... maybe see if he could have some fun along the way...

BUMPS IN THE NIGHT
SLIGHTLY LESS STRANGER DANGER
Chail chuckled nervously when the boy became dfensive over his Turtwig. "Relax, I'm no poacher or anything. I'm happy with just Chia." The trainer concluded, putting a hand on the resting goat's grassy mane. It seemed the kid enjoyed the marshmallows as well- a little more than Chail expected, but nice to see. As for what the white-haired man himself did...
"Well, I usually run my mom's Daycare with her. I cook and help care for the Pokemon there." The man began to explain. He knew that daycare ever since he was a kid, and his mother did want to pass the ownership down to her son someday, though Chail himself sported other plans he was intent on hiding for now. "Sometimes she tasks me with hunting down some stray Pokemon as well that we bring to the daycare for others to adopt. She and her Aerodactyl are an amazing team also."
Chia, meanwhile, approached the Turtwig again, circling and sniffing Draculus out. After a moment's pondering, the giddy little goat would hop right up and stand on the little Pokemon's shell, glancing about while Chail only stared on, slightly amused but also concerned. "Uh... Chia, you might want to get down from there." Chail spoke, only earning a wide yawn from his partner.
