After a while, the team managed to defeat the monster house only coming out with minor scratches and bruises.
Suki was walking beside Beryl while Luna and Juli were picking up a few crystals as souvenirs. "Listen Beryl," Suki started. Beryl turned her head to look at Suki. "I don't think I thanked you properly back there."
Beryl just giggled. "No need to thank me! You saved me once and now we're even." Suki smiled before putting her paw into her treasure bag, apparently searching for something. Beryl tilted her head to the side, curious of what she had in mind.
When Suki pulled her paw out, in her hand was an oran berry. She handed it to Beryl. "Please accept this as my gratitude." Beryl didn't know what to say but she just couldn't accept it. When Suki saved her in the past, she had nothing to give her but still Suki saved her for free.
"Suki, I can't accept this…" Was all that Beryl said. Still Suki gave Beryl the oran berry.
"At least eat this to heal your wounds." Beryl thought about it for a moment before nodding to Suki. Beryl than grabbed the oran berry in Suki's paw with her mouth and gobbled it down. In an instant Beryl was healed.
"But what about your wounds?" Bery asked concerned.
"I'll be fine but first we need to focus on our enemies and the cave." Suki said before realizing she had almost forgotten about the legend. "Also, do you remember the legends of Star Cave?"
"Do I?" How could she ever forget legends of Star Cave? "Of course I do! What of it?"
"I overheard of a legend while on the way to your home." Beryl now understood.
"They probably meant the one of Jirachi."
"That's exactly who they were talking about." Luna spoke up. "Is it true?"
"Yes it is." Beryl looked at Luna with a smile. "Jirachi resides here at Star Cave."
"Is it also true it will grant us one wish?" Juli asked next. Beryl nodded.
"Yes but it's not that simple." Luna and Juli both looked at each other than back at Beryl. Suki was also confused, what did she mean by not simple? "Jirachi is a pokemon who literally hibernates all the time. So it's rare to even get a wish."
"Well I'll make it wake up!" Luna shouted. Suki giggled at Luna's words.
"I don't think it would be that easy, Luna." Suki said but still Luna would at least yell at it.
"Yeah, Jirachi is well… A heavy sleeper." Beryl said. Juli was the next to speak when she spotted something in the distance.
"Hey, what's that over there?" The group decided to take a closer look. Whatever it was, it was grey like a Poochyena but by its size it was definitely not a Poochyena.
As the object came into view, it was somewhat a pokemon. This one was different, it was a rock shaped like a Kangaskhan.
The group groaned in frustration, they put all their focus onto a Kangaskhan Rock when they could have been focusing on finding the wish maker, Jirachi. Well there was a bright side to the rock.
Suki walked up to the Kangaskhan and spoke aloud, "I'd like to deposit a Reviver Seed, please."
Beryl, Luna, and Juli looked at each other before looking back at Suki who now held a Reviver Seed in hand.
"Why would we need a Reviver Seed?" They all asked. Suki thought it would have been obvious.
"Just in case if Jirachi sees us as enemies." Now that they understood Suki's actions, they continued forward till they came across two pathways. Both looked the same just went opposite ways.
"Which path should we take?" Juli asked. The group stood there in thought till Beryl came up with an idea.
"How about we split up into sets of two?" Suki, Luna, and Juli agreed since it was better than just standing there dumbfounded.
"That settles it! Then who goes with who?" Luna questioned. Suki thought about strategy since last time they didn't expect a monster house, especially her almost dying from the rampaging Garchomp.
"How about I go with Luna?" Juli suggested. It was a good idea since Luna could confuse a pokemon with her Confusion attack giving Juli enough time to defeat the foe within seconds.
"Alright then, I'll go with Beryl." With that settled, Beryl and Suki went into the cave on the right while Juli and Luna went into the cave on the left.
