@Tala Is Eternal @122 Generation @Jupjami @ChocoChicken The town in question was not far from the group's current position. Many a request came from there, due to the town's unfortunate position between a lot of bandit camps.
Having found the town, Evergreen made a mental note of its location and proximity to the bandit camps. Still, she was also surprised that it was near the group too. Perhaps they could use the town to spring a trap?
Mel and Pachi went to Brock as she started holding his hand. ''Can I ask something daddy?'' interupting the whole conversation.
(SOrry forgot to reply) ''DO you think I am cut out for this journey, I Mean I feel like we are only holding everyone up. We aren't strong nor bright. And...And we think it might be best to go back home. You all should be care full what will happen. And we know we cannot help. so Daddy, we decided....'' Mel said as she gazed around. ''I t is best we go home.....'' as simple as that she let go of Brock hand, and passed the group.
@Tala Is Eternal "Wait!" Ash called. "You have done plenty to help us!" Brock assured Mel. "Please...you can do so much more!"
''Thank you, daddy, brother. But no worries. Journeying isn't for us. '' Mel and Pachi smiled. ''Thank you for everything.'' as she bowed down. And continued walking. (What if she accidently walks up to the bandit camp?)
(That would be something) Maria and Evergreen were speechless. They were unsure how to react at the moment.
@Tala Is Eternal @122 Generation @Jupjami @ChocoChicken (This is exactly what the group's afraid of--and what you guys have to prevent, sight unseen.)
But we were just about to start a raid... Evergreen complained. You can't leave us now! "Evergreen. Let's hear you out first. Maybe Mel just needs some time to herself," Maria suggested.
Mel and Pachi waved again as they went into the woods. "Now its just us Pachi. Do you think it was wise for us" the pachirisu looked down. It was also she had doubts but they went forward
Peri turned to Maria. "Time to herself is no matter when we're about to go into something this dangerous. We can't let her go missing now."
@Tala Is Eternal @122 Generation @Jupjami @ChocoChicken "So, what do we do now?" Ash wondered. "I obviously can't use Midori to force her to come back..." Brock sighed.
"Suppose you have a point, Peri." Maria crossed her arms. "We need as much backup as we can." We should go look for her, in case she runs into a bandit camp! Evergreen said. I just saw a town not far from here, and thought we could use it prepare a trap for any nearby bandit camps. It would be a bad thing if Mel and Pachi simply wandered into a camp without knowing!
Mel and pachi continued wondering around. They thought that they went to the right way. Meeting someone . "Mr? Do we go the right way to the nearest town?" Mel asked The man looked and grinned. "O yes you go. But its dangerous let me escort you" Mel and pachi smiled. "Thank you
