Depths

[For a while, this whole thing was going better than Louie expected. Of course, all that means is that he's been waiting for the other shoe to drop, because come on! How could a trip into a usually-forbidden crater not go terribly wrong?

And in the depths, things are indeed going terribly wrong. Killer robots aren't new to Louie - he knows Gyro Gearloose, after all - but no matter how many he's gone up against? Still terrifying! The "killer" part isn't exactly a concern with these Pokemon, but that only helps so much... Especially when they're this relentless. So, to avoid his team tiring out too fast - or just plain getting wiped out - Louie isn't rushing into battles.

That, and he's frightened to the point of hiding. He feels kind of bad about this reaction, which is a whole other weird thing, but he's still tucked away in a deep, rocky crevice. Not comfortable, but at least it's safe--

Until the ground starts to tremble, and Louie pokes his head out to see Gobo fighting a robotic Donphan with his Dugtrio. Keeping quiet and trying to stay hidden now is a bit much, but... Maybe he can still avoid fighting? He leans further out from his hiding spot and gives an urgent, whispered hiss of breath.]


Hey, come on! Over here!
