Bount once again failed to reply. His face remained forward, the music blasting loud enough that anyone could hear every detail of it. Zap remained in his lap, hlaf asleep as he ever so slowly regained his composure, his body rising and falling with his breath as he seemed to have fallen asleep. Though Bount, still impossible to read as he continued to silently pet the jolteon, offering a somber comfort while he allowed the music to heal Zap's mind.
All the while, Austrays had tramped back over to Bounts side, nestling herself at his other side, giving a cautious glance up towards the new human. She blinked with a start, it was almost uncanny. Aside from a few differences, this human looked scarily simmilar to Bount. Though it didn't mean she couldn't act like it was Bount. Her instincts betraying her fatigue as she simply watched intently at the human, being overly analytical of his body language.

Note looped his thumbs through his belt loops as he looked down at the other trainer impatiently. The striking similarities between the two of them had yet to occur to him, but Donetello was taking in the similarities as Austrays was, and that was clear from the look on his face as his eyes shifted quickly between the two. His tail swished once, giving away an emotion that feel somewhere between bemused and agitated.

The music from Bount's headphones finally started to slow as the song met it's end. Zaps ears lifted once more as the music stopped, his eyes blinking open to look up at his trainer with a tilted head. His expression seemed to show he was at least feeling better as the headphones began to play yet another song, this one much more quiet and soft compared to the last. (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=4XIGqhP3LkU)
Bount, seemingly as if released from a trance, shifted his head slightly upward. Somehow still, the shade from the brim of his hat still obscured his upper facial features from everyone. He remained like such for a brief moment before his hand reached up to pull his headphones around his neck and lips refusing to part as he finally addresses the trainer with a simple noise of his throat, "...Hm?"

"Where did you find that Pikachu?" Note repeated, gesturing backwards to where Lemondrop was perched on the head of the Espeon. Despite his impatience, his voice remained calm. At least now he might get some answers...

Bount only shrugged, shifting his head back to its original position, his hand now gingerly petting and stroking the electric fur of Zap. How he did it without yelping form the electrical current was anyone's guess, probably just used to it over the years. His response was just as brief as the question, if not more so, "Dunno."

Note's eyebrows rose dubiously. "You have no idea?" he asked. "She just... fell out of the sky."
Lemondrop narrowed her eyes and crossed her arms. "[Hmph. Why's he saying it like that?]"
The Espeon glanced up at her wiht an amused smirk. "]Did you fall out of the sky?]"
"[And what if I did?]" the Pikachu replied snarkily, sending a bolt of electricity right to the Espeon's orb that caused him to flinch.

Bount's reaction, finally seeming attentative to the world around him thumbed over in the direction to Austrays next to him with a shrug, but didn't much say anything as his hand slumped back into his lap with a now snug and content jolteon idly dozing.
Austrays gav a nod over to the small Espeon, amusedly grinning as she chided, "Well, the landing was wet... But he's not far off." her tone carried with an air of relaxation it seemed...

Note's gaze shifted to the Skarmory in surprise, and then back at Lemondrop and the Espeon bemusedly. "So you really have no idea where she came from?" His tone was disheartened; he truly had been hoping to learn more.
The Espeon made a face, and his long narrow ears flicked. "Geez. Only you, Lemondrop."
The tiny Pikachu smirked as if she had just won a chess match and crossed her arms.

A few moments would pass, providing nothing less of an awkward silence until Bount's mp3 switcherd over to a new song, this one seeming a bit retro, especially with a loud bell toll at the start, but still no shortage of bass(http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=mCnJ2_xN2jU&feature=relmfu). Even though his eyes were hidden, one could basically assume he was looking up at Note as the brim of his hat angled upward, followed by a droning response after yet another pause, "...Wierd."
Austrays, still listening to the whole exchange, stifled a chuckle within herself, the realization of her trainer and this new human finally dawning on him. Though seeing the smug pikachu was far more than she could pass up. Never knowing when to quit her teasing was probably her biggest weakness. "Though you should have seen her face, little one. Scared like a baby kanghaskan."

"Look," Note said tersely, working to keep his patience, "that Pikachu belongs to my sister, and I have to find her. Where were you when you found the Pikachu?"
Lemondrop wrinkled in indignation. "Hey, watch it," she said gruffly, provoking a little sicker from Chance.

Bount could only shrug at this, seeing as his honest knowledge was it simply appeared next to his fire with Austrays. Yet another slow, processing pause of speech befre he'd reply in his usual monotone, "Dunno." as he slumped back downward, head angled down and away from Note, "... Few hours." He finished, as if it just dawned there were two parts to the question.
Austrays gave a small triumphant smirk before nestling back into her roosted position.Her wings, her neck, her whole body was sore. Had Zap, who was seemingly asleep by now, not interfered, the fight could have gone either way. That fact alone worried her the most, she should have just crippled it back when she saw the camp. But it was too late to regret in hindsight, the fight was done and everyone came out... relativley okay.

Note let out a frustrated sigh and turned on his heel. Clearly this guy would be no help to him. He would have to find Emily on his own... Maybe Judis could help. If he had something with her scent on it...
He stopped next to Chance and looked down at Lemondrop, who looked back up at him belittlingly. "We're going to find Tunes," he told them, summoning Judis to his side. The massive Arcanine, tailed by the little Ninetails, patiently listened as he explained, "Find Emily."
Judis' ears perked, and his nose wiggled as it began to work. It pulled him like a magnet toward Lemondrop, and after an abrasive sniff that nearly sent the tiny rodent toppling off the Espeon's head, he turned, nose to the ground, and started off. Note followed after him, withdrawing the Ninetails, Umbreon, and mutant as he did so. He did not look back as they headed away.

Bount gave a small sniff in the air, leading to a partial sigh. His hand gave a pat to Zap's coarsley furred head, who in turn blinked open his alien eyes, looking up to Bount. Though, Zap quickle stood up and aside as Bount silently rose to his feet, slowly walking the same path as the other human.
Zap, now a little more calm than before, tilted his head a bit confused. But nonetheless, he followed Bount in step with good pace, letting out a discharged aura of electricity as he shook the length of his body and stretched.
Austrays as well, with no words just as the other two, rose up from her nested position and left a nice dent in the shape of her underside in the ground from her weight. With imprints beneath her feet, she quickly caught up to the other two, now all following Note and his team.

Chance's long pinkish-purple ear twitched, and his long tail trembled. He looked over his shoulder, the movement so swift that Lemondrop went tumbling off his head and landed on the ground with a cut-off squeak. He nearly stepped on her before he electricuted him hard enough to send him to the ground. "Will you watch it!?"
The young Espeon let out a disgruntled whimper as he slowly got to his feet, baring with little resistance the residual waves of electricity as they left his body. Lemondrop climbed up his leg and grabbed hold of the thick fur of his nape. "Hurry up."
"But they're following us, Lemondrop," Chance whispered uneasily, not daring to peer over his shoulder at their followers again.
"Big deal," she grumbled. "Hurry up or you'll get lost."
His tail swishing uneasily, the Espeon hurried after the blonde trainer. Note looked down at him, and then up. When the other trainer and his Pokémon caught his eye, he nearly started in surprise. Confusion was clearly plastered on his face, highlighted by a little irritation.

As usual, Bount offered no words, but slowed down to a halt once the other human stopped and looked behind him. His head turned to his left, over towards Austrays and gave a small nod upwards, issuing a silent command.
Austrays in turn, fully understanding Bount's meaning, unsheathed her sharp wings and took to the skies in one fell swoop, dissapearing behind a gray cloud in the sunset coloured sky, scanning the land below.
Zap, having no real use in the situation, idly blinked and sat next to his trainer with his head tilted and large ears flickering, scanning all about with innate curiosity.
