Patience collapsed onto the ground when Gadget finally said they could take a break, her legs were killing her from all the uphill climbing they've been doing for the past few hours.
It has been a day and a half since they had left Serene Village, heading east towards Lively Town. They had crossed forests, plains and now Sheer Mountain Range, hills and valleys that stretched almost a hundred kilometers in length, all the way to the shore. It divided the Water Continent into east and west, any Pokemon wanting to travel to Lively Town or Serene Village, had to cross this mountain which isn't advised because of the extreme hot weather due to the summer heat.
"How much farther before we reach Lively Town? Patience asked.
"It'll take another day at most." She replied, looking at her map.
The fire fox Pokemon sighed in disappointment, she opened her bag and reached for a canteen full of water that her pops once used but had given it to her. She opened it and took a sip, quenching her thirst. It was then she noticed the stone that Litwick had given to her partially buried with the rest of her supplies, she took out and examined it again. It radiated a faint glow when it came into contact with her hand, a double helix symbol was inside it's clear body.
What does this stone do? Patience asked herself. Is it a key to an ancient ruin that contained treasure? The thought excited her but she doubt that was the case. Maybe it's part of something bigger? Something no Pokemon has ever heard of before? Maybe some day she'll find out. She placed the stone back into her bag and continue drinking, she saw Ian, who was writing something in his notebook that he always carried, admiring the scenery from their high vantage point. A cool breeze blew past them, which made sense considering how high they were up.
Who knew the world could be so beautiful? Patience thought. I wonder what more is there to see out there?
"Alright, break time's over." Gadget said. "Let's get back on the road, we can get through Sheer Mountain Range before nightfall."
Ian and Patience nodded, as the fire fox Pokemon placed the canteen back into her bag, got up and went up to Ian.
"You lead this time." The mudfish Pokemon said. "Walking behind Gadget is getting pretty boring."
"How nice of you." Patience sarcastically said. As the two caught up with Gadget and continued their journey to Lively Town.

A/N: I know this chapter was short and somewhat filler-ish, but I wanted to get this out of the way so I can move on much faster.
I know I've asked this before, but after this story comes to a close. Would you all still want to see me do more Super Mystery Dungeon stories? They won't be as long as this one but they'll be more like "Special Episodes" from Explorers of Sky, following a certain character from here.
Let me know what you guys think.
With that said, this is Ikcatcher, signing off!
