It's been about two weeks. Shinx was finally up and about. Christmas was just about here, about four more days. Everyone continued working on their stuff, and I worked on mine. Snow finally fell last night, it was pretty nice. It covered all the ground with fluffy snow. The temperature dropped insanely fast, it was below freezing temperature. The snow turned into ice. About two days till Christmas, all of us decided to go out. It was cloudy, it wasn't the type of weather to go walking around for long. But for Christmas we wanted to have a little fun. Gathering everyone, I started planning out our route. It wasn't going to be very long. Just long enough where everyone can have fun. I way-pointed a couple areas to explore. Once everyone grabbed what they wanted and stuff. We headed out. A massive group, it was pretty nice everyone together. We continued heading out, hoping to find some cool things.
-Military-
"Do you think we delayed enough?"
"We have to prepare for the worst..."
"Yeah, but it's been about a month since we released those papers."
"Just wait..."
-Shinx-
My leg finally healed. It was still hurting though, I just tried to push through. Everyone was heading to our first stop, Ruby Cave.
-Tepig-
Waking up, I started slowly getting up. Only to get shocked with pain, I fell back down right away. The pain shocked through my body. It was so intense, I tried looking around. All I saw was medical things. I remembered that sugary I went through. Continuing to look around, I was also alone. It was dead silent. Nothing, it got me concerned, after a bit of laying there. I finally got up very slowly. I pain was still burning deep inside, but I got off a bed and walked out. I entered a giant white hallway. It looked like a hospital to me. They always freaked me out, I never liked hospitals. Continuing to walk around, I heard talking in the distance. Thinking it may be the ones who dug that bullet out, I quickly sped walk to the sounds.
-Riolu-
"Ah, here we are." I said.
We finally reached Ruby Cave. I read that there were pretty rare things in here. And it would be warm, so I thought it'd be a nice place to bring everyone. We entered the cave one by one, I thought it was awesome right away. The cave was filled with gems and stuff. We continued looking around for stuff to being back.
-Unknown-
"Man, an entire group? How many is that?"
"I believe I counted sixteen."
"Sixteen?!"
"Yeah, seems like it."
"That's pretty intense. They look well armed, should we chance it?"
"We should. Everyone just stay close by."
-Emolga-
The gems were beautiful. I love them. I just wanted to grab them all. Only if I had a pickaxe. We continued walking down the darken caves. It was pretty nice. But something seemed off, maybe just the excitement of Christmas. Who knows, I tried keeping up with the rest while thinking these.
-Raichu-
Pichu was always scared of the dark. She was latched onto me. The caves were massive, I hoped we wouldn't get lost. We continued deeper and deeper into the cave.
-Tepig-
Walking inside many rooms, it was always empty. The sound stopped for a bit. I thought whatever was there left. After checking the last room, I tried looking for the exit. Trying to find something useful, I started to get dizzy out of nowhere.
-Riolu-
We reached the end of the cave. After exiting the other side of the cave, we ended up in Sky City. We were surprised how the cave took us here within an hour. It was pretty nice, Sky City was a massive city. Filled with skyscrapers mostly going beyond the clouds. After talking a bit, we decided to loot the city, if it wasn't looted already. Once we all got to the gates, I entered carefully. After checking it, I gave the all clears and everyone walked in. We sat Shinx down on a bench while everyone else searched for anything to use.
-Tepig-
I tried to keep my balance. But for some reason this unexpected dizziness was too much. I fell to the hard floor.
-Riolu-
The city was pretty empty, only finding some stuff like metal. After getting done, I thought it'd be a good idea to head to Diamond City next. It was quite the walk but everyone seemed down with it. I wasn't sure how much Shinx could take. His leg still wasn't fully healed but he could walk on it. After a bit of planning again we headed off. But something happened. Something we'd had to battle...
