Quietly approaching them, she looked up to see the constellation
that Luna pointed. A memory flashed in her mind. "Look! Isn't it
pretty?" Amelia said to her younger brother, pointing at the sky.
She was with her adopted family. All 5 of them were outside the
house, admiring the beautiful night sky. The moon was round as the
stars twinkled in the night sky. " That is the constellation
Capricornus if memory serves me right" He said, pushing up his
glasses. She looked in wonder as she pointed to more constellations
with him naming all of them. She smiled, it was a long time
ago.
Luna was staring up at the stars when she saw a shadow in the
distance. She turned to her side. "Oh hey Amelia, you up? Sorry if
we were being too loud," she said to her and realized she was
staring at the stars. Her eyes here kind of glossy, even when she
was smiling. "You okay there?" she asked, worried.
Tokyo glanced at Amelia, then went back to looking at Orion. She
had never really been stargazing, so she couldn't find any
constellations. She liked it, though. It was fun. She wondered,
then, where the stars came from - were they lost spirits, or
perhaps people yet to be born? She sighed. Whatever they were, they
were beautiful.
Luna looked over at Tokyo. "What are you planning to do in
Horenium?" she asked her. "I'm pretty much just exploring. Haven't
planned out what to do," she said with a shrug.
"Hm? Oh, uh... I'm not sure yet. I think I'm going to battle the
gym..." she said, twirling her hair around her finger. She knew she
wanted to battle the gym, though she wasn't sure what to do after
that. Maybe she could beat all the gyms. She doubted she would,
though.
"Oh," Luna said a little surprised. "I didn't know there was a gym
there. Really, I just came here blindly. She took out one ofher
Pokeballs and held it in her palm. "I wonder what type the leader
will use," she looked over at Amelia, still staring at the stars.
"I'm pretty sure the others are going there too, huh? " she said.
Amelia continued to look at the stars, she was mesmerised by the
beauty of them. the way how they light up the dark night make them
seem very mysterious and intriguing. She wonder what secrets the
stars hold in them.
Without realizing it, Luna had dozed off like she always did when
she wakes up in the middle of the night. She sat up and yawned,
realizing she had fallen asleep near a tree. "Heh," she chuckled.
She walked around the tall grass, searching for a stream, or maybe
Pokemon. She needed to clean herself up or at least wash her face.
"Here" A whisper said, Amelia was sitting on the branch on top of
Luna. She had climbed up there to take a better view of the stars
and like Luna, fell asleep. She handed Luna a piece of cloth from
her pocket, before resting her head against the trunk of the tree
and fell asleep again.
"Oh geez, you startled me," she chuckled. She took the cloth from
her. "Thanks. But it would have been great if there was a stream or
a river nearby. I don't like going anywhere without taking a
shower," she said. She poured some water from her water bottle and
damped the cloth, using it to rub her face and arms. Putting some
in her hands, she wet her hair so it was easier to fix and tie up.
"Oh well, guess that's the meaning for survival," she said to
herself.
Amelia being asleep didnt hear that. But the minute she turned her
body. "AHH!" And off the branch she went, straight for the ground.
"Ow.... Guess I shouldnt have chose to sleep there."
"Ow," Luna said when she saw Amelia drop to the ground. "You okay?
Hope you didn't break a rib or something," she said then slapped
herself. "God forgive my silly mouth, you alright?" she asked
outstretching a hand to help her up.
"Let's wake the others up. We should get going," she said to her.
She pulled off a twig from Amelia's hair. They trudged through the
tall grass to get back to the camp. "Oh wait," she said as she went
to a nearby bush and grabbed some berries. "For breakfast," she
said, carrying a bunch in her bag. She wondered if she'll encounter
any wild Pokemon because she was still wandering around the tall
grass. Hopefully, not. She was still groggy and she had left Blaze
near the camp.
Tokyo stretched, putting away her book and torch. She got up, and
saw that Luna and Amelia were out. Humming quietly to herself, she
walked around the camp to make sure everything was as it should be.
Slice woke, and walked around with her. Once she had checked
everything, Tokyo and Slice sat down and did nothing, waiting for
the others to return.
Aria and Summer finally woke up. When they realised the position
they were in, both turned red and slowly untangled themselves, much
to the amusement of their pokemon who had been watching since half
an hour ago. They both tidied themselves up quickly and went out of
the shelter.

Luna reached the shelters with an entire armful of berries.
"Breakfast!" she called out. She realized she was being like her
mother and let out a chuckle. She spread out the berries and
released her Pokemon. "Eat up! We have a long way to go," she
smiled as they ran eagerly to the food.
"I still have some cookies if you want!" Amelia said raising the
bag. She then took out some equipment needed to boil tea and soon
enough, she was enjoying a nice cup of tea.
"Yum!" Luna said as she munched on some of the cookies. Her
Charmander shook his head at her. Luna looked at him.
"Yeah, yeah, maybe I do like sweet food," she admitted. Her
Charmander nodded and continued gobbling down his meal. Soon, they
were all full, packed, and ready to go.
"Everyone ready?" she asked the group.
"Yep!" Snow was on her shoulder with Lily in her pokeball. She
dismantled the shelters set up and cleared any rubbish left behind.
She packed up her items into her bag ready to continue.
