Exploring This Land (mod)

[Ilia]

Walking into the large clock tower, Ilia wasn't sure what she would find. Holding Togepi close to her, the silver haired girl began to climb up some of the staircases to the top of the tower. It seemed like it would be a great place to eat lunch, or even find a new pokemon. "Let's go Togepi! Maybe we can find you a new friend!" the trainer said as she started to sprint up the stairs. Togepi cheered happily. She always loved getting new friends.

"You know Togepi," Ilia added, "this place is kinda spooky. Like something might jump out at any time..." she laughed to herself as she jokingly messed with her pokemon. It was so much fun to talk with Togepi, even though she could never understand her little friend.

[Jay]

As one reached the top of the stair case, one could become aware of a light laughing. As one reached the top of said stairs, the sight of a Pikachu chasing and eventually tagging a Minun came into view. Both pokemon seemed oblivious to the fact that there was a human there and continued on with their game.

[Ilia]

Ilia was surprised to see two pokemon running around so freely around the clock tower. Slowly, the trainer stepped onto level flooring with them. Attempting to stay as quiet as possible, she was shocked when Togepi started to move around, "Tokee Tokee PREE!" she shouted loudly. Ilia placed her hand over Togepi's mouth and looked over to the two pokemon quickly. Shifting Togepi around a bit, Ilia managed to pull out Nala's pokeball and an empty one. She was ready to catch something today for sure.

[Jay]

The sound of the Togepi had caught the attention of the Pikachu but not the Minun. The Pikachu stopped for half a second and seemed to turn her head around and stared straight at Ilia. "Chu?" she asked turning her head to one side. The Minun blinked slowly but suddenly seemed to move forwards looking up at the Togepi with rather large eyes.

[Ilia]

Ilia was surprised when only the Pikachu noticed her. She thought for sure Togepi would have attracted the attention of both of them. Both of the pokemon were cute, and the trainer wasn't sure which she was more likely to catch. Setting Togepi down as the Minun noticed them, she prepared to send out Nala. Ilia didn't want to hurt either of the pokemon too much, but they were just so cute. "I won't hurt you..." she said quietly, kneeling down. Reaching out, she hoped the Minun wouldn't be afraid of her.

[Jay]

The Minun seemed to step forwards and allow the human to pet her. She wasn't hostile to humans and was more of the curious nature, anyways. The Pikachu watched as though unsure of what to say. After a moment, she simply sighed out a "Pika-chu..." as though this somehow settled something in her mind.

[Ilia]

Ilia smiled happily as the Minun allowed her to pet her. She was so cute and kind, a lot like the trainers other pokemon. "Togepi, come here." she said quietly as Togepi continued to wander around in circles. Looking back to the Pikachu, Ilia smiled. Switching her gaze back, Ilia pulled out her empty pokeball, "So... Do I do this the hard way? Or the easy way?"

[Jay]

The Minun blinked as the pokeball was produced, and after a moment, she suddenly laughed, moved away, tagged the Togepi, and started running as though not wishing to end the game just yet. The Pikachu who watched this seemed to smirk and then moved away in case she was tagged next.

[Ilia]

Ilia jumped as the Minun suddenly hit Togepi and ran away. Quickly, she grabbed Nala's pokeball, "C'mon Nala! Let's get this one!" Nala appeared in a flash of red, "Eevee!" Understanding what was happening, Togepi squealed and ran after the Minun. Of course she didn't know the exact rules of tag, but she got the basics. Ilia stood and looked for the Pikachu. Both of the two were hiding, or something. Looking down, she was Togepi running towards the shadows, "What are you doing?"

[Jay]

"Pika! Pika!" The Pikachu called as though stating some 'come on you can tag me!' calls or something of the like. The Minun looked back and grinned as though waiting for the Togepi to catch up as well.

[Ilia]

Staring for a moment longer, Ilia realized the pokemon were playing. Maybe she wouldn't have to work so hard to capture one of the two... Taking out her last pokeball, the trainer allowed Mijumaru out. "Go play you guys." smiling, she moved a few feet and sat, watching as Togepi ran over to the Minun, surprisingly not falling over. Nala ran in circles around the egg pokemon, having fun herself.

[Jay]

The Minun slowed down and allowed the Togepi to tag her before quickly running over and tagging the Pikachu who looked around now to find someone to tag. Quickly moving towards the Mijumaru, the Pikachu tagged it and then quickly moved away again laughing lightly as she went.

[Ilia]

Ilia laughed as she watched the pokemon play. For two wild electic types, they were certainy friendly. Togepi squealed happy as she tagged the Minun. Jumping up and down, the small pokemon fell over. Nala skipped over and nudged her, helping Togepi up. Ilia smiled as the Pikachu tagged Mijumaru. Mijumaru stopped in his spot and hurried to go tag Nala. Once she was tagged, the Eevee ran over to the Minun. Ilia changed her position a bit and thought about what to do. Feeding the pokemon might help...

[Jay]

The game continued as the Minum was tagged again and laughed before tagging the Togepi once more. The Pikachu smirked and then seemed to relax a bit. After a moment, she looked over towards the human now knowing that there was no ill will meant at least at this point. For now, she would trust the human.

[Ilia]

Ilia gave up trying to tell which pokemon was it. They were all running around so much, it was hard to tell. All she knew was that she was gaining their trust. And that was what she needed. Thinking, she tried to figure out which one would be better to capture. Both were so adorable... Smiling, she looked back at them. Togepi ran over to Nala and tagged her, still excited. Nala jumped around then tagged the Pikachu.

[Jay]

The Pikachu grinned and then ran to tag the Minun again, and the game continued much in that way. After a while, both electrical pokemon seemed to slow down and stretch as though tired and slowly finishing the game. "Chu~" the Pikachu stated thanking everyone for playing.

[Ilia]

Ilia watched as they played for a while, "How hard will it be to catch one?" she asked herself quietly. Hopefully, the pokemon couldn't hear it. Smiling as they finished the game, the trainer pulled out her snacks. Maybe she could lure one of the two in? "Come here. I won't hurt you. I've got food." she said softly. Her pokemon came over and began to eat, and she hoped the other two would as well.

[Jay]

The Minun seemed to walk over first, and for half a second, the Pikachu looked doubtful. However, she too came in the end. Both waited to see if the girl would give them food as well. The Minun really hopped so!

[Ilia]

Ilia smiled and nodded, "It's okay. I'm not lying." holding out a small pile of snacks, she allowed any of the pokemon with her to take some. If she could gain enough trust, one of them would let her capture them without too much of a fight.

[Jay]

The Minun ate happily at the food while the Pikachu seemed to wait a moment before gently starting to eat. After a bit, the Minun had finished the food and quickly got up again and hugged Ilia happily thanking her for the food. The Pikachu smiled and made a gentle 'heh' sound.
