Jason should have suspected that he would've taken forever getting to the lab and back. Judging by the sun as it slowly sunk down upon the horizon, it was maybe six or seven in the evening; well past dinner and making it all the more unlikely he'd make it through the woods before nightfall, much less all the way back to Pewter. Having spent most of the getting to and from the lab all the way from Pewter, he figured that if he walked fast enough and hurried, he could make it back in time to get another room at the Pokemon Center there and sleep for the night. But his sense of time and how fast one actually could go. Plus, running into the varying wild Pokemon along the way there and back wasn't going to speed up their time. He began to realize this the further away they got from Viridian and more towards the forest that shared the same name as it. Orion sat happily -- or rather, tiredly -- on his shoulders as he trotted along the man made path; the forest growing closer and closer the more they walked. Jason had planned on spending the night in the woods with all those bug Pokemon, but hey -- whatever got them closer to Pewter when they woke up the next morning. "'m sure I'll wish I chose Charmander," Jason mused, a few Pidgey nearby darting out of the tall grass and away from the human as he walked past. "Those bug catchers are gonna be one hell of a time." "Scraggy Scraggy," retorted Orion with a shrug. Jason rolled his eyes at the response. "Oh sure, only cause you don't gotta worry about it!" retorted Jason. Orion merely shrugged -- then let out a loud yawn as he stretched his arms before settling once more, now taking in the view as they walked along. The entrance to the forest could be seen quite easily now, and seemed more intimidating than the threat of the oncoming night. "Don't 'suppose you or that Squirtle know flash, huh?" Jason asked as he stopped just short of the well kept entrance. "Scraggy? Scrag Scraggy!" Orion shrugged. Jason sighed at the response, then gave a nod. He was an adult, for Arceus' sake! "Well," he mused as he slowly entered the forest and began to make his way through the vastness of it, "suppose being stung by a bunch of Beedrill can't be the worst thing that could happen t' me so far." "Scraggy Scraggy!" |
