[So... what now? That one human ran away, and that other one is still there. Shall we continue on our way?] River asked, brushing an ant off of his light blue arm as he did so. He was a bit unsure about these humans, and he would be glad to leave.
Iyana stared at the boy that was moving into the woods, then looked back over to the girl. She shrugged, and then turned around, her back to the village. "Go. Nothing here," she said in a low voice, and then began to walk back into the woods.
The Wartortle watched her curiously, she had been speaking human language for the whole time they had been in this village now, and that surprised him. He was just so used to her speaking in his own language. It was much easier to understand that way; not because it was his language, but because she spoke it so much better.
[What're you thinking about, River?] came Iyana's voice, speaking very much like a Squirtle. It was odd to see... a human speaking like a pokemon, but that is the thing that happens when you're raised by them. River nodded to himself.
[Ah, you're speaking in our language now?] he replied, not answering her question.
Iyana looked back at him for a moment, [It's easier to talk. There's so much human speech I don't remember.]
They were walking through a less-dense part of the forest, there were few large bushes and more grass that trees. Some Pidgey flew overhead, and Iyana caught a couple words from their chattery speech, but Pidgey were so hard to understand with their odd chirps and mumbling.
[I think I hear a creek up ahead, that's all,] said River, pointing to the right of them. Iyana nodded in response, and turned toward the direction he had indicated. Creeks were good spots to take a break.
