"Ezio is acting funny,"Helio said hesitantly."I think he doesn't
want me talking about my mom.I wonder why he doesn't like her."She
twitched her ears thoughtfully."I wonder what she's doing right
now."Ezio's ears are flicking back and forth as Helio doesn't
realize that he can hear the conversation.
"She's really busy right now."
Helio's ears shot up at Ezio's reply."You know where she's at?"
Ezio stopped and gave the small shinx a exhausted but sad look."I
do."
Castiel flinched, picking up on Ezios subtle hints. Castiel,
wanting to avoid the situation for now in an attempt to keep
Helioswift happy for as long as possible, began to speak,"Where are
we heading tomorrow morning?" He asked Ezio, his voice tight as he
silently hoped Ezio would get what he was trying to do.
"We're going to go up Mt. Silver,then we're getting to the legends'
meeting place.Before sunset,I hope,"He added,flicking his tail
gratefully at Castiel for the change of subject."When we get
there,we'll tell them about what happened to Groudon,and then we
might be able to stop Espeon from getting the rest of the key
items."
"Mt. Silver?That's really tall,"Helioswift said worriedly."I don't
know if it's possible to get over it before sunset."
Ezio settled down onto the ground,resting his head on his paws and
closing his eyes."Not if we go through it,"He said tiredly before
drifting into sleep.
Castiel sat down, giving a worried look at Ezio and Helioswift
before stifling that feeling and attempting to look cheerful.
"Isn't this place cool Helioswift?"
Helio looked confused for a moment before catching on."Oh,it's
really ice.It's a good place to chill,"she
replied,looking overly proud of herself."The only problem is that
I'm chilled to the bone - I'm as cool as a
cucumber!I'm just boiling with anger,though,so I have to let
off some steam." At this point she's shaking with her
contained laughter.She'd always found it hard not to laugh at her
own jokes.
It had started as a chuckle for Castiel, but with each pun his
laughter became more prominent. Shaking on the ground from giggles,
Castiel somehow managed to say,"Those puns were great, just try not
to be so cold-hearted when it comes to our next pun battle."
Helioswift looked down at the eevee and said,in the most monotone
voice she could muster,"Don't give me the cold shoulder for
this."
She then curled up in a small ball on the floor and waited for
sunrise.
