The Family of Legends.

Mlm?

Paul was in awe when Mlm showed how strong his team had gotten. Sobble and Espurr had evolved while Riolu and Feebas were the same. He had also caught a Petilil, who was able to defeat the second gym, Misty, with ease.

"Are you a little young to be doing this?"

She wasn't wrong. Mlm looked like he was the youngest. However, he was able to knock his brother to the ground while Eyrin shot up a tree with the biggest grin that could fit on his face. Qidorr was the first to get to his feet as he grinned at the water type gym leader before he was picked up.

"Excuse us-" He then carried the smaller boy as he waved while the others joined him in walking to the cart. "Mlm..." He giggled as he tried to communicate.

*O*

Later, it was a complete switch. Mlm trembled in the cart after getting spooked by a Ghastly. Paul was able to convince it to leave them alone before checking on the smaller boy, who refused to talk to them.

"Mlm, it's alright." A hiss followed before his aura turned on, letting them know to leave him alone. The group sighed at that.

*O*

Mlm didn't talk to them until Paul needed to rest in the cart. He glared at him from afar as Paul fell asleep, not disturbed by the threatening aura.

*O*

Mlm warmed up to the others when Ash made food. He was hiding in the cart when the scent of his favorite meal filled his nose. He peeked out as Ash got the food on plates. While he was still angry, he wasn't about to pass this up. He slowly crawled out from the cart as Ash paused and placed a plate on the ground for him. He instantly raced over and used his body to hide it. The others held back their chuckles as Ash sat down beside him and rubbed his back, calming him down as he took his time with the food.

"All's good... all's good..."
