The Taillow looked at the Trainer curiously for a second, as if she had never really thought about what her type would be before. <Well, yeah, I suppose so! It makes sense, doesn't it?> she said after a moment.
Then the bird Pokemon took in the rest of what Aeron said, cocking her head to the side as if she was thinking. <Hmm... I wouldn't mind going with you, because it does sound like fun, but I can't just leave without saying goodbye to my parents. How about you come with me an we go tell them?> the Taillow asked hopefully.
The bird-Pokemon had no doubt that her parents would allow her to go on an adventure, but she wanted them to get a chance to meet the strange boy with his talking stick. Also, she COULD NOT leave home without saying farewell to the only other Pokemon that had treated her like she belonged. [/sub]

Aeron smiled at the Pokemon, he liked this Taillow already it seemed easygoing and fun to be around. He listened to the Taillow's words and nodded, "Sure I'll go with you to see your parents. I mean they are the ones who raised you so why not say goodbye to them! Lead the way."
Aeron would tag along behind the Taillow as it took him to the location of its home. He was excited about getting the opporutnity to have a Water and Flying type to his arsenal. Sure it wasn't just a tool, it needed to be with people who would appreciate it despite its odd nature. Its parents were the only other ones that treated it right so why not come with him? He'd make sure to make it feel welcomed and his Pokemon would get along with it. Well most but he worried how Bandit would react with any of his Pokemon. Especially Yamchi since they had fought earlier. Oh well he'd figure out eventually.

A smile appeared on the bird-Pokemon's beak at Aeron's words. The Taillow found that she liked this trainer, even if she thought him a bit odd. Who talks to a stick? Still, she surmised that there must be a reason for it, and even if not she could care less.
<My parents have a nest farther in Route One, and its sort of a long walk. It only takes about ten to twenty minutes to fly the distance, but walking is WAY slower. It'll probabaly take nearly two hours to get there,> the gilled Taillow said. She started to feel a little guilty, but stopped when she realized that the trainer likely had to go that way anyway.
She took to the sky once more, her bright blue wings glittering in the sunlight. The flying-type was careful not to fly too far ahead of Aeron, always being sure that he could see her. After about twenty minutes the bird Pokemon had to stop and rest in a tree, her wings not used to the effort of flying. After all, she had just flown for the first time that day. Though she had fallen out of her nest when she was young and splashed into a pond, thus ending up 'flying' under the surface, she had never actually taken to the more difficult air. [/sub]

Aeron listened to the pokemon, hisnavy orbs scanning the bright blue Taillow's body. He liked its coloring, it made the critter unique and one of a kind. As the Taillow explained the trip to see its parents Aeron just nodded, he was heading in that general direction anyways, "Sure thing, don't worry about the trip there, I've been traveling for a day now so its all part of my adventure. Let's get going!"
As the Taillow took to the sky Aeron figured he'd let out one of his other pokemon to letit stretch and such. Why not let out his Gible? So he reached for his belt and tossed the corresponding Pokeball, a red beam letting out Jaws. The Land Shark looked around confused but saw Aeron, <Hey I remember you! Whatcha need? Are we battling! I sure hope so!> Aeron laughed but kept walking keeping the Taillow in his sights.
"No, sorry jaws but we're following that Taillow up there to see its parents. Then he'll be coming with us on our journey." The Gible nodded and walked next to his Trainer, looking up at the Flying-type, <Why does it look like that? At the Safari there were Taillow but not that color, is it sick?> Aeron shook his head and then looked up at the Taillow who was resting, "Here, it'll tell you. Hey Taillow wanna rest on my shoulder? That way you can rest but we can still keep walking. You'll just give us directions, by the way this is Jaws my Gible. He's nice not aggressive like the Zigzagoon you saw earlier."

The Taillow watched Aeron catch up to her position, curiously looking at the Gible. Living in Route One all of her life, she had never seen a Pokemon quite like it before. She heard the dragon-type's words, inwardly smiling. She didn't mind explaining once more.
Aeron's offer caught the Taillow completely by surprise. It was a nice gesture, and she had never ridden on anyone's shoulder before. [collor=aqua]<Really? Sure!> [/color] she said, flying off the branch and gently perching on Aerons proffered shoulder. <And hello Jaws! Yeah, you don't give me the weird shivers like that Zigzagoon did, haha. I'll tell you why I look like, but could you tell me what the 'Safari Zone' is? I've never even heard of it,> the odd colored Taillow said. The flying-type then explained to the Gible how she had been born with the gills and the strange coloring, and how she could breath and 'fly' through the water. She paused during the explanation to tell Aeron the correct direction, then continued talking till she had finished. Once she was done, she began to groom her feathers a little, keeping a curious eye on the Gible and the other on the path ahead.[/center][/sub]

Unknown to Aeron and the Taillow (And whatever Pokemon that was over there, as Cath could barely see it.), they were being watched. About thirty feet away, Cath was hidden behind a tree, donned in blue jeans and a green tank top, watching there every move. Takala was on her shoulder, her eyes trained on the Taillow.
Cath looked to Takala, a smirk playing on her lips. "Let's go." Cath moved into view and smiled serenly, eyeing her surroundings. She picked Takala off her shoulde and held the Pokemon in her arms, petting the Eevee affectionately.
Looking a head, she judged her self to be about twenty-five feet away from Aeron. She smirked and whispered into Takala's ear. The Eevee's ear perked up, and she smiled. Jumping from her trainer's arms, Takala dashed away from her, toward Aeron and the Taillow.
"Takala!" Cath gasped, her eyes wide in shock. She dashed after the shiny Eevee, calling her name repeadtedly. "Takala, stop!"
But the Eevee continued on, not stopping unitl she was forced to, right into the back of Aeron's legs.

Aeron smiled as the Taillow flew onto his shoulder and added his comment about the Zigzagoon. As the Taillow asked its question about the Safari Zone the Gible simply smiled.
<Well its a place where a bunch of different Pokemon can be found, from you're kind to my kind there's lots. And on occasions a trainer like Aeron might come by and catch one. Its not that bad a place really, its actually quite nice there.>
As the Taillow spoke about the way it was born and such the Gible listened intently, nodding its head as it took in the information. Aeron was also distracted walking along to the directions given by the bird Pokemon. But soon his navy eyes were acught by a small Eevee that ran up to him and stood in front of his legs. The trainer stopped dead in his tracts as his Gible also looked at the odd Pokemon. Aeron looked at it confused and spoke, "Hey there whatcha doing out here? Do you have a trainer or no?" Aeron looked around confused, what was this Eevee doing out here?

OoC: Actually, the Eevee ran into the back of Aeron's legs XD
-------
The Taillow nodded at the Gible's reply, thinking that she would like to visit the Safari Zone one day. But, her thoughts were interrupted by the sudden appearance of the Eevee thar ran right into the back of Aeron's legs. The keen bird-sight of the Taillow allowed her to see the trainer before Aeron or the Gible could.
There seemed to be something strange about the human, but the Taillow dismissed it. After all, the trainer whose shoulder she now sat on had talked to a stick! The flying-tye just watched the approach of the girl, silently watching this strange turn of events. [/sub]

Cath came to stop near the group, a small frown on her face. "Takala, why'd you run off like that? I told you to stay near me." She scolded the Eevee, seeming to not notice Aeron.
Takala had the decency to look ashamed. She bowed her head, shooting an apologetic look at Aeron. <I'm sorry, Cath... and.. uh, sir.> She said, looking to Aeron.
It was then that Cath turned to Aeron, as if she had just realized he was there. "I'm sorry, Takala hasn't been out of a city in a while, she's been really excited, and she gets real curious in areas like this." Cath blushed, cutting herself off before she rambled on too much. "I'm Cath, by the way. And this is Takala." She blushed again. "Of course, you probably already knew that... Ehem..." Her eyes fell to her feet, face red in embarrassment.
By here feet, Takala held back a snicker. Cath was truly amusing sometimes.

Aeron looked back at the Eevee that had run into his leg and made him stop oddly. Finally its trainer showed up and Aeron smiled up at the girl. His navy eyes caught the look of embarassment on the girl and her Pokemon, he wondered why the Taillow hadn't said anything if it had already saw the trainer. The Gible eyed the Eevee not really appreciating how the Pokemon carelessly ran into his trainer like that.
Aeron smiled politely at the Eevee and nodded, "No problem Takala, its not that big a deal," Aeron's gaze then switched to the girl's face, "Don't worry about it, I understand she's a curious lil Pokemon, my would be too." The Gible grunted and looked at the Eevee, <You should watch where you're going, its rude to run into people like that. Why did you let her off the hook so easy huh?> The Gible looked at Aeron unsatisfied and whiny as usual. Aeron smiled and shook his head, "No big deal Jaws relax dude. Oh yeah I'm aeron and this is Jaws my Gible," Aeron pointed to the Gible next to him, "Then this is my newly found friend Taillow here, so whatcha doing out here?"

The Taillow continued to watch the exchange, her curiosity overwhelming. However, the more that she was around the trainer who called herself Cath, the more she felt uncomfortable. The little flying-type had no idea why, but the girl made shivers race up her spine. Still, the Taillow said nothing. She really couldn't tell Aeron if it was just a feeling. She had no proof that there was anything wrong with Cath, and was confused herself. [/sub]
