At the moment, Cheryl and the gang were chasing after Combee. They soon came to a waterfall and there were Combee walls everywhere. Mothim, Tesla and Chespie went towards a waterfall and noticed a cave behind the water. Cheryl was getting excited, and everyone ran into the cave. The cave was huge. Tesla and Mothim sniffed the air.
"Since Pokémon can smell the aroma of honey, I reckon that Tesla and Mothim can smell it in this cave." Brock stated.
"That means the Amber Castle must be in this cave." Cheryl realized.
Tesla and Mothim started to run ahead, and the humans followed them.
Cheryl and the gang were still following Tesla and Mothim in the cave. The cave was dark with many tunnels; it was easy to get lost in.
"Oh man," Dawn groaned, "We've been walking for ages and we don't seem to be getting anywhere near of finding this Amber
Castle."
"It's true, we just find rocks and tunnels and more." Alain agreed.
Cheryl was getting worried if they would ever find it and now they were walking down the darkest part of the cave. Just then the group reached what looked like a dead end because they arrived at a big wall.
Cheryl looked at the wall. "This wall looks like it's moving." she said.
The truth is this wall was really a big Combee wall. The Combees started to attack to make the group go away, but Cheryl had her Mothim use Supersonic. The Supersonic attack made the Combees stop attacking and separate from each other, revealing a golden-yellow chamber that looked just like a castle.
"It's the Amber Castle." Cheryl beamed, happily.
The big Combee wall was to protect the Amber Castle and keep intruders out. There were Combee walls everywhere and pools of honey. Inside the Amber Castle there was a Vespiquen watching over the chamber, like a queen watching the throne room on her throne.
Dawn looked at Vespiquen on her Pokédex:
[Vespiquen, the beehive Pokémon. The evolved form of a female Combee. It houses its colony in cells in its body and releases various pheromones to make those grubs do its bidding.]
Cheryl bravely started to walk towards Vespiquen.
"No Cheryl." Dawn called out, worriedly.
Combee started to gather around Cheryl, fearing she may attack the queen and castle.
"I'm not here to attack your colony or castle and I'm not here to steal your honey. My grandfather was a treasure seeker and tried to find the amber castle and the Enchanted Honey, but he couldn't find it. That's why I am here to fulfill his steps of finding your honey. I wish to take a little bit of your honey to add to my grandfather's treasure collection." Cheryl announced.
Vespiquen stared at Cheryl. The gang waited in worry to see how Vespiquen would react.
Vespiquen had one of her Combees fill Cheryl's empty honey jar with some enchanted honey. She had accepted to let Cheryl have some honey.
"Thank you, Vespiquen." Cheryl thanked Vespiquen, happily.
She and the gang had a taste of the Enchanted Honey.
"Wow this really is sweeter than normal honey." Brock commented.
"Delicious." Dawn smiled.
"Sweet." Ember added.
"And me without any bread." Alain added.
Piplup and Tesla liked the honey too.
That evening the group walked to a clearing in the forest after leaving the Amber Castle.
"I really should thank you all for helping me find the Enchanted Honey." Cheryl said.
"No problem, Cheryl, it's the best we can do." Ember remarked with a smile.
"I got it, we can be treasure hunters together, you and me on the hunt searching for treasure!" Brock flirted.
Ember, Alain and Dawn sweat dropped at his compliment.
"Look, a Beedrill," Cheryl said, "My Grandfather always said if you see a Beedrill that means you have to travel alone, goodbye everyone and take care!"
She ran off while Brock put his head down in shame.
"Farewell, my sweetest of the sweet." Brock mumbled.
The others waved goodbye to their treasure hunter friend.
"Bye, you take care too!" Dawn said happily.
Tesla smiled. "Rai raichu!"
"We hope to see you again!" Ember agreed while waving.
So with the Enchanted Honey and amber castle finally found, the gang could now leave the Eterna Forest to get to Eterna City.
