Eloise and the Voice of the Forest

chapter 7

"I still can't believe Brooks Oliver is with Team Rocket..." Eloise said. "He's absolutely terrible, terrible, terrible!"

"Agreed." Akito nodded.

"What did he do that's so bad to you?" Duck scoffed. "Take candy away from you?"

"No, but he was going to marry Mr. Peabody's daughter!" Eloise replied. "He was only using her though!"

"Yeah, he only wanted to marry her for her money." Estelle said.

"Wow, he does sound like a jerk." Lexi had to admit.

"So, uh, how rich is this Rachel Peabody girl then?" Duck asked with an eager smirk.

"DUCK!" Everyone glared.

"Hey, I just wanna know, is she as cute as she is rich?" Duck asked innocently.

Everyone grumbled about Duck as they kept walking along until they were suddenly hit with fog.

"This is getting bad." Brock said.

Togepi was so scared he dug himself inside of Misty's bag.

"Uh-oh, how are we going to find our way now?" Estelle asked.

Celebi sounded worse from the fog.

"We better keep moving," Rev suggested. "If we stop now, it might be too late."

"Guys, look!" Pikachu saw someone coming which made everyone look forward.

"It's an Ursaring!" Sam recognized the Pokemon coming.

Everyone looked cautious until a little Teddiursa came beside the Ursaring which made Teddy stare at them. Teddy went up to them curiously. The wild Teddiursa and Ursaring took a long look at Teddy. Teddy looked at them too and felt connected to them somehow the same way Larvitar felt connected to the Tyranitar from earlier.

"Do I know you two from somewhere?" Teddy asked.

The Teddiursa and Ursaring looked to each other.

"Let your humans follow us." Ursaring told the other Teddiursa as she then left with her own.

Teddy nodded and followed.

"They want us to follow them." Jenny told the others since she could now talk to Pokemon like the Fudo siblings and Felicity.

And where they soon started to follow them.

"Mama, they look like me..." Teddy said to Estelle about the wild bear-like Pokemon.

"That's because that's an Ursaring, it's your evolved form and that would be it's child, a Teddiursa." Estelle told him.

"Hmm..." Teddy hummed at his kind.

They kept walking until they passed a wild Stantler in the fog who then took it from there.

Teddy stared at the Teddiursa and Ursaring as they went along without them and the Stantler took the lead from there.

"Reminds me of Bambi." Jenny commented about Stantler.

"Cool, a real Stantler." Eloise smiled.

They kept going further throughout the forest until the Stantler stopped in the grass to see yet another Pokemon of the forest.

"That one, I am not sure what is..." Felicity said about the ground Pokemon who looked playful as an otter.

"Aw! It's a Furret." Estelle smiled.

The Furret led them around by poking its head out at every angle as they walked through the grass.

The Furret then took them out to a body of water and went back to where it came from, stopping its help for them there.
