Dylan stood up onto all fours. He looked over at Sloane and frowned. Figures he's stuck on all fours but she can stand up on her hind legs. Oh well. It is what it is. At least they weren't anything too grotesque and they were finally back together after a month and a half. It was nice. Sloane looked around the surrounding area, her head swiveling back and forth with her eyes taking in everything. Dylan walked over and sat down next to her, causing Sloane to turn her attention to him.

"Can you see just fine?" Dylan asked quietly. Sloane nodded in return. Her eyesight was fine, which was surprising. Everything about this was, truthfully. She was on the Trick Master's hit list after all, and so was Dylan. Why were they not in worse situations? Sloane decided it wasn't worth dwelling on. Right now, they needed to move. If they stayed here too long, the Trick Master might get a hold of them and put them in a worse situation.

"Let's move. If we get into a clearer area we might be able to pinpoint where we are. Maybe." Dylan stood back up. That sounded like a viable plan. The two began to walk silently through the safari zone. For the most part it was quiet, except for the occasional blowing of the wind. It made Sloane anxious. Her mind was strangely clear for now, but she kept her guard up. The Trick Master's influence could try to take over again at any minute. Sloane looked at her boyfriend from the corner of her eye.

"Dylan, I have to tell you something," she said. Dylan paused in his steps and turned his full attention to Sloane. Sloane took a deep breath then said, "Do you remember how there was an oasis area in the old trick house?" Dylan nodded. It was the one with those fog fountains that returned you back to normal. "Well, ever since I left the Trick House I've been feeling... odd. I quickly realized why. I was pushed through one of those fountains and everyone I've encountered since I exited the Trick House that was in the oasis was under the Trick Master's control. I think it's the fountains, Dylan, and I think I'll become one of them next. I'm fighting it off right now but... I don't know how long I can hold it off for. Who knows, maybe I'm free because I just died but... who knows." Dylan remained silent for a moment before replying with,

"So? I'm still going to stay by your side no matter what. You're not getting rid of me that easy." Dylan smiled, earning tears from Sloane. Sloane hugged Dylan tightly and whispered her thanks. After a few moments, the two separated and continued until they exited the Safari Zone. They immediately got their bearings thanks to Mt. Pyre and decided since Lilycove was closer, it was a much better bet than trying to head to Fortree, and thus their journey began.

"So that's the current situation," Azlan said softly. "I am going to try and venture to Sinnoh. It won't be easy, but I must find out if my brother, Uriel, is all right, and I also wish to locate my sister, Mariah. You two are free to join me, but do not feel obligated to do so. It won't be an easy journey." Azlan looked over Fox and Brent. The two seemed to be considering his proposition. Brent eventually shrugged.

"Sure, I'll come with you. It'll help keep the other guy in check so he doesn't go on another murder spree." Brent paused for a second before shouting, "Well I'm sorry I don't think killing people sounds like a fun time!" Fox and Azlan exchanged a brief look before Fox spoke up.

"Yeah I think I will come too. You could probably use all the help you can get. We don't know how strong these false legendaries are so it is very well possible that we could face something out of your league." Azlan nodded, not insulted, having already been well aware of this fact. It was unavoidable really.

"So that settles it. Let us be going then."
