OOC: Since everyone's ready to leave, I figured bunnying people leaving Rustwall is okay.

And this RP so makes me feel like playing Fallout 4 again. XD

Martin Vickers
Pachirisu Gijinka
En Route to Prospect Junction
Affected RPers: @Noblejanobii @Awasfriend

Martin was relieved when Taylor told him that as a Ditto gijinka, he had the capability of being able to communicate with normal Pokémon. As long as Taylor was with him, relaying his messages to Xie wouldn't be a problem. And that was only if Martin had trouble speaking, though he could imagine with a transformed body, pronunciations with his new vocal cords might be an issue. As long as the transformation wouldn't affect his memories, he would still inherently know English, but he just might have trouble actually speaking the words.

Xie explained the details to Taylor, and even despite the dangers, Taylor decided he would come as well. Martin, deep inside, was relieved that Taylor would be with them as well. He knew the trip would be dangerous and they only had a limited amount of resources, but together, they stood a much better chance of finding Terri safely and ensuring each of them survived whatever was out there waiting for them. Meanwhile, to Martin, Xie and Taylor, despite having only just met them, were the only friends and family he really had now. And with his condition, he knew being alone in the world was something far too dangerous for him to consider.

With the three of them ready, they left Rustwall City and headed on the ruined highway that eventually would go to Prospect Junction, although it was some distance away. Along the way, they saw plenty of ruined cars, overturned vehicles, and building ruins. Most of the rusted husks of cars were far too destroyed to be of any use, and the same went for the buildings that had been reduced to little more than piles of broken stones, splintered wood, and heaps of ruined rubble and debris. Some of them might have had supplies, but Martin knew stopping to search all of them would only lessen their chances of finding Terri. The more they searched, the further Terri ahead Terri would go. They needed to catch up and in order to do that, they had to push themselves.

In the meantime, Martin was feeling signs of what was to come soon. His breathing was off, his heart rate was in flux, and he felt sensations of feeling sometimes hot, sometimes cold, as if he was coming down with some kind of sickness or fever. But he knew what was really going on. Despite all this, he tried to carry on and not think too much about it, but he couldn't lie to himself.

Just try to relax. Just try to be content so the others don't worry about you.

He told himself it would be okay. They needed to find Terri and he didn't want to let this slow them down.
