Red hair was startling against the burnt look of the Haunted grove as a girl moved farther in to it. Every so often she seemed to leave an offering of poke food by a tree as she moved along. Looking around she didn't see very many pokemon but was hoping to find a ralts this time. Her adventure at the temple had been an interesting one. Meeting a new person, getting to battle then having the roof cave in on them. All in all she thought it had been productive. Stretching she barely felt any of the bruises. Her emerald eyes spotted a cottage not too far away and it seemed to be in one piece. Very odd if you asked her. An Umbreon not too far away came running over and rubbed against her leg wanting to be out of here. Her body quivered as she looked around. She didn't particularly care for ghost types. They always popped in and out of nothing.
Rikka smiled and petted her shiny pokemon. The other three were asleep in their poke balls so She hadn't let them out yet. More then likely they would just want to return to their poke balls anyways. Well Flare, her Cyndaquil might not. Any new place was a curiosity to the young pokemon. Moon peered at the cottage and stayed by Rikka's side as she kept getting closer to it. Moon walked forward to check it out a bit before Rikka could reach it. She would not have her Trainer put in danger because of her inattentiveness. Looking around the Cottage she blinked then raced back to Rikka. "Aww Moon. Its just a cottage." Getting closer she could see the graveyard in the back. "Okay it has a graveyard. Its not that bad."

The air slowly began to fog which was common for the area yet remained ominous, and sounds could be heard from the graveyard area. They seemed light and giggly, yet it could easily be a trap or turn into a dangerous situation. Would Rikka go towards the grveyard or continue on?

Moon shivered as the fog started to rise again. Sticking close to Rikka she laid her ears back. Something wasn't right in this grove. Something felt wrong. Maybe a trap? Shivering again she prepared to push Rikka back. Watching the Graveyard she followed behind Rikka. Rikka seemed to want to look around the graveyard. Rikka looked around and felt the air seemed to change. Getting closer to the graveyard she looked down to make sure Moon was still with her. "Just a little look around then we can leave okay." Walking into the graveyard she looked around carefully then continued toward the first gravestone to see what kind of Graveyard it was.

Suddenly a Zubat came charging straight towards Rika from somewhere in the mist. It screamed like a bloody demon as it came darting straight at her.

Rikka squeaked and ducked down to avoid getting hit by the Zubat. Though she kind of hoped it didn't fly into a tree because she ducked. Popping back up she looked behind her to make sure the Zubat didn't run into anything. Moon was ready to get out of there. Their was no ralts here. Time to leave. Nudging Rikka she tried to get her to turn back.

The Zubat had continued flying and seemed to disappear again into the mist without another word. An eerie silence fell over the area once more. However, suddenly a creaking sound could be heard. The back door of the cottage had opened and was now swinging lightly in some un-felt breeze.

A shiver snaked up her spine as the cottage back door seemed to open and creak in the breeze. Only she didn't feel the unseen breeze. Rikka turned back around and went to the grave stone closest to herself and knelt down to look at the words. She wanted to know what kind of Graveyard this was before she left. Moon stayed facing the cottage though went no closer to it. She was afraid Rikka would want to explore their next. A shiver rocked her body as she crouched closer to the earth.

The grave marker had no discernible name and appeared all but blank from the wear of time. However, suddenly something came straight out of the marker. A Haunter grinned and seemed to suddenly try to lick Rikka's face.

Rikka ran her fingers over the grave marker and squeaked falling backward as the haunter tried to lick her. Sitting back up she grinned and ended up giggling. "Well Hi there." Pulling out some Poke food from her pocket she offered the Haunter some. Moon spun around as she heard Rikka squeak. Racing over she stopped short noticing the ghost pokemon. ("Hello.") Walking slowly so not to startle the pokemon she sat a few feet away from Rikka and the Haunter.

The Haunter turned his head towards the Umbreon for a moment and nodded before looking back and taking the food in one ghostly hand and inserting it into his mouth. "Hauuuuuunt," he grinned a thank you before looking back at the grave marker and then few just above it with a grin still on his face. "Haunt-terrrrr...."

Rikka smiled at him and stood up as she watched him. "You have a very interesting way of greeting people. I bet the others run though." She smiled at him and dusted herself off. "Your very handsome. You wouldn't happen to know where a ralts might be would you?" She walked to the next grave marker to see if it was any more readable than the first as she wiped a bit of dirt off it.

The egotistical inflation that went to the Haunter's head at that point about being complimented was quickly popped when she asked if he knew where a Ralts was. Shrugging his shoulders, the Haunter floated around a bit and then up before floating down again and finally laughing and shrugging again.

"Oh well. Second time that's a bust." She watched the Haunter with a smile. "You seem rather happy. Do you like to travel?" Finding a nice clear spot she sat down and took off her pack. Pulling out a new sketch book she opened it to the first page. Grabbing a pencil she watched the Haunter then started to Draw his outline.

The Haunter turned his form to one side wondering about the word 'travel'. What in the world did that mean? "Haut" he asked as though requesting some sort of definition. Not far off, the cottage door swung again and creaked while something inside seemed to hum quietly.

Rikka looked up at his request. "Oh you know. Um like there is the old temple up north. Traveling is going from one place to a new place." Her eyes drifted toward the Cottage and thought she might want to go explore in there. Moon noticed Rikka's eyes drift toward the Cottage and hoped she wouldn't go near it. Rikka finished the outline and went about putting the larger and smaller details in rather quickly. The haunter was a pretty easy pokemon to draw. Turning the Sketch book around she smiled up at the Haunter. "Whatcha think?"

The Haunter looked at the picture and seemed to smile before making a general 'thumbs-up' gesture and smiling a bit. Looking towards the cottage, the Haunter seemed to float towards it and then looked back at Rikka wondering if she would follow.

Rikka put away her things and stood up as the haunter floated toward the cottage. Blinking she pulled her pack on and smiled as he looked back to see if she was following. "I'm coming." She followed after the Haunter willingly as Moon followed out of obligation to Rikka. Sticking close to Rikka she kept a look out around them. Rikka looked down at her Shiny Umbreon. "Don't worry so much hun."

Inside the cottage was relatively dark even for the Haunter as he entered. However, as he did so, the Haunter caught sight of an Abra talking softly to a Ralts. Both seemed to stop and turn towards the Haunter before waving and continuing their conversation. The Haunter rubbed the back of his head and seemed to laugh to himself.

Rikka followed after him and blinked waiting for her eyes to adjust. Noticing the Ralts she smiled and then looked at the Haunter. "You must be a lucky Haunter." Rikka blinked as Cyndaquil chose that moment to force herself out of the poke ball. "Cynda~!" Looking around she noticed new pokemon. ("Hello! I'm Flare") She greeted all the pokemon in the room including the Haunter. Ghost pokemon never really bothered her. They meant a new friend or playmate.

The Haunter suddenly smiled again and rubbed the back of his head rather bashfully. The Abra looked over first and seemed to stare for a good moment at the Cynaquil. The Ralts seemed to move a split second after the Abra, and both went back to talking as though the had not even noticed the others.
