We were walking down Route 4, the route between Santalune and Lumious City. The Route was lined with hedges arranged in an intricate maze. One of which we were, sadly, lost in.

"How much longer?" Chespin sighed, "We've been walking forever."

"We wouldn't even be lost if you hadn't insisted on chasing that Flabebe," I growled at him.

"You heard the stuff that Flabebe said," Chespin replied, "How could I not go after it?"

"You could have been the bigger Pokemon and just... I don't know... maybe... NOT RUN AFTER IT and force us to follow you into the giant maze," Fennekin shouted, "Why am I traveling with a nutcase like you, anyways?"

"Because our trainers wanted to travel together," Chespin answered, glancing at Nick, Morgan, and Genevieve.

"I can't see a single thing over these hedges," Nick grumbled.

"That must mean we're totally and utterly lost," Morgan noted.

"This wouldn't be the first time," Genevieve mumbled.

"We weren't lost!" Morgan defended herself, "I knew exactly where we were! We just could get out!"

"That sounds strangely similar to lost to me," Nick replied.

Shouting caused me to turn my attention back to the Pokemon in front of me.

"You're slower than a Slowbro!" Fennekin shouted at Chespin.

"You're as defenseless as a Magicarp!" Chespin shot back.

"You're as useless as one!" Fennekin retorted.

"That's enough," Conner stated, stepping between the two bickering Pokemon, "Arguing gets us no where."

Chespin and Fennekin glared at each other, but were wise enough not to push it. Conner sighed and walked between the two in order to prevent another argument.

"Ha, ha! I told you foolish human slave Pokemon that you'd get lost in this maze!" a voice cried out. A small Flabebe flew out from behind one of the bushes.

"You again?" Chespin growled, "What do you want?"

"I'm just studying the stupidity of human- trained Pokemon," the Flabebe answered.

"You'd think that a Flabebe would be nicer," I grumbled.

"Well, lucky you, Pikachu," the Flabebe stated, "I'm not like what everyone thinks I should be like."

"So? You're still the 4th most annoying Pokemon I've meet, and I'm not letting you off the hook!" Chespin exclaimed, lunging at Flabebe. Flabebe just laughed and floated out of range.

"Chespin!" Morgan yelled, "Stop attacking the poor, defenseless Flabebe!"

"Poor and defenseless?" Chespin asked, "More like fourth place annoying, totally insane demon!" Chespin growled.

"Who's the bigger Pokemon?" Fennekin chided.

"Not you," Chespin replied.

"Ignore the Flabebe and keep going," Conner told Chespin, walking ahead. Fennekin trotted after him. Chespin reluctantly followed, giving Flabebe a glare as he pasted by. I followed behind him.

Flabebe, seemingly annoyed we left it behind, pursued us.

"Are you going to Lumious City?" Flabebe inquired.

"None of your business," Chespin replied.

"If you're heading towards Lumious, you might want to know that it's closed." Flabebe stated, ignoring Chespin.
