"How about that tree over there?" April suggests.
"No we need one a bit bigger." Donnie says.
The group is going around the forest trying to find a tree to set base camp up in. Leo had suggested the group try to find a big tree by some water. They had been following Leo but the group got split up at some point. April and Donnie had ended up finding each other and now are walking around trying to find the others.
"Where are the others? One minute we are all together, then we get split up somehow." April says while the two walk down a path.
"Well, considering he is a water type, Leo might be following signs for water. Raph might be with him and Mikey, and if Raph is with Leo, is probably running around..." Donnie says then sighs.
"C'mon. We'll be able to find them." April says. "Wait one question. If you are a grass type, wouldn't you also be able to detect water since you're half plant."
"Yeah I guess I would." Donnie says.
He concentrates a little, trying to find some hint of turns around then detects a trace of water deeper into the woods. Donnie races into the woods with April following behind. After running for a while, Donnie veers right and stops. April stumbles from the sudden stop and almost runs into a tree.
"Hey what's with the sudden stop!" April yells at Donnie.
"There's water right over there." Donnie points with vines that pop out of the bulb on his back.
A stream is in the direction Donnie pointed. It leads to another clearing, smaller than the one they came from, with a small spring in the middle of it. Water trickels down into the spring, making a tiny waterfall. Another stream on the other side carries the water elsewhere. Small waves erupt from the water as a blue shape jumps onto the shore in front of Donnie and April.
"Leo? Where are the others?" Donnie asks.
"About to ask you the samething." Leo says while shaking water from his skin. "One moment I'm following some weird feeling, then I'm here and you guys aren't behind me."
"We must've been seperated when you ran off and we couldn't keep up." Donnie says.
"Help me! An angry Raph is chasing me!" A voice in the distance says.
Mikey bursts into the clearing and jumps into the water, with a very angry Raph following him. Raph stops at the waters edge glaring at a swimming Mikey.
"Stupid idiot! Just because you're a Pokémon DOESN'T MEAN YOU CAN ZAP ME WITH A THUNDERBOLT!" Raph shouts at Mikey who is swimming around in the water.
"What it was just a joke. I didn't know it would actually work..." Mikey says in defense.
"Well then just go ahead and ignore us..." April says while Raph turns around.
"Leo tell Mikey not to use thunderbolt on me anymore!" Raph says while glaring at Mikey.
"Just as long as you don't hurt Mikey. We can faint here and we don't have any berries yet to heal you guys if you get hurt so be careful." Leo says. He dives in after Mikey and drags him out. "Now Mikey no more using any moves on anyone in the group. Ok?"
"Fine..." Mikey says pouting.
"Well enough of the drama. I think I found the tree we need." April says walking up to a tree.
An island sits in the spring with a gigantic tree on it. A shallow shore on the island surrounds it but most of the space is filled up with a tree that extends upwards for a bit. The branches on the tree are flat on the top with hollows in it, carved over the years. Not far from the shore on the other side by the group, a long tree extends to the island. Many flowers and shrubs are growing around the tree, signifying it hasn't been used for many decades. The smaller tree is worn flat across the top but it still looks strong.
"Nice. Now the way onto it is across the small tree leading to the bigger tree. Nice job April." Leo says as he walks onto the smaller tree. He walks across and onto the other shore.
"Nice pick April." Mikey says giving her a thumbsup as he walks past.
"Thanks guys." April says.
April and Donnie walk across the tree to the other shore.
"Um are you guys sure the tree is safe? What if it breaks when someone goes across it?" Raph says staring at the water surrounding the island.
"Just come over here Raph." Leo says as he starts climbing up the tree.
"Fine..." Raph says. He walks across the tree and makes it to the other side.
"Not so bad was it?" Donnie jokes. "Afraid you might've fallen in?"
"Shut up Donnie." Raph pouts and climbs up the tree.
Mikey, Donnie, and April climb up after Raph. The group stops at a branch high enough to overlook the forest, but wide enough for them to run around on.
"Well guys welcome to base camp." Leo says.
