Monart watched Vivian grab the body and begin walking off with it. He looked at her with a funny look, still holding Rene in one hand.
"Have you perhaps though that these Forest Tribe people might not like you stealing the body of their beloved hero?" Monart asked her serenely, as though he had not just been fighting. Rene groaned in pain, but said nothing else. Then he turned to the Riolu.
"You see. You attacked in a blind rage, typical of the Mountain Tribe. You lost your control and hurt your friend. Now do you understand?" He said, completely ignoring Topaz and the others. He glanced down at them all. Then he strode off into the trees with Rene. He had more important things to do. Didn't matter what that Lopunny did with the body, Rene would serve his purpose anyways. Monart released a small Heal Pulse into the Flareon, bringing him back from the brink of death. Now was not his time yet.

Brink had prepared to use Ice Beam, but when the enemies left, she stopped. She glanced down at the Ditto and the two Eeveelutions that had walked over to her and Murk.
"Indeed Rard. We are from the Ocean Tribe. I... Am Brink. The lengendary seeress. And this is my protector, Murk. We have come a very long way to find her," Brink said grandly, slipping back into her seeress routine. 'Her' was a young Glaceon. Brink could clearly tell she was in the middle of a vision. Brink walked over to her.
"Do not be alarmed..." she said, her words powerful enough to pierce through the vision the Glaceon was having. Brink then placed her hand on the Glaceon's head, using some of her own power to reinforce and strengthen the fading vision.
"Relax. I am not going to hurt you. But you can not control your powers yet. Allow me to add my own power. But you must be the one to keep the vision going as you so desperately want to," Brink said soothingly.She didn't say how she knew what was happening. She was a seeress after all. She looked over at Rard and Xentea.
"Now, you two. Tell me, have you heard of the Tower of Legends?" she said.

Talmire sat down against the tree. He was hurting all over, but he had won. He groaned to himself and pushed himself back to his feet.
"Hey. It's ok... He's gone now. I think they're retreating..." Talmire said quietly. The Rattata poked her nose out from behind the tree. Then she came into view. She walked right on over to Talmire and sniffed him.
"Oh! You're my hero!" she said, her voice very squeeky as she pulled Talmire into a tight hug.
"Hey! Let me go!" Talmire cried, pulling himself frrom her grasp. The Rattata looked confused.
"But... Um... Hey! I know you! You're Tolsa's son!" she said. Talmire sighed. Of course he was his father's son. Who else would he be? But the Rattata wasn't done yet.
"I'm Whisper! I am so grateful that you saved me! So... I'll tell you a story! Once, long ago, gods walked the-" Whisper began, but was cut off.
"Look! I don't care about some dumb old story right now! I need to find my father and find out what's going on!" Talmire said. He charged off into the trees, leaving behind a very speechless Whisper. She shook her head and pulled on her whiskers.
"Fine! I didn't want to tell you anyways!" Whisper said.
"I would be interested in hearing your story..." a female voice said from the trees, Whisper turned around and saw a Beautifly floating towards her.

"Ghetis you moron! Who told you you could do that! Do you realise the trouble you have caused!" Domhawk roared. Ghetis simply looked up at him. He shifted his grip on his bone and gestured wildly at Domhawk.
"You have no right to question me! Not unless you plan on fighting me and taking my position!" Ghetis said angrily. His eyes met Domhawk's and the two stared at each other until Fryed appeared.
"Um... What is going on Elders?" he asked. Ghetis, without breaking his gaze, waved his bone at Fryed.
"Fryed, escort the Supernatural Tribe Delagation out of our lands and prepare the defences," Ghetis said. Fryed looked at him, then Domhawk, then the very tired looking Rapidash that had collapsed on the ground.
"Don't do that. Ghetis hasss no ssstanding anymore..." Nack said as he slithered out of the shadows.
"What?!" Ghetis shouted. Domhawk had a smug look on his face.
"That's what I've been trying to tell you Bone Head! You have been removed as an Elder! We took a vote, and it was decided that you no longer have the best interests of the tribe at heart," Domhawk said smugly. Ghetis growled and glared at Nack.
"You bastards!" Ghetis said angrily.
"Fryed. You will not do anything," Nack said smugly. He slithered away. Domhawk leered at Ghetis then followed him. Ghetis could understand getting him removed as an Elder. But why would Nack not prepare the defences? They both knew what was going to happen. And despite their differences, Nack was usually one to protect the tribe. So why let them remain unprepared? It made no sense. And it all seemed to point back to Fin and the other Supernatural Tribe members that had shown up. That was where all the trouble had begun. And Ghetis was going to geet to the bottom of this.
