The group made their way to the side of the cave, and found the small entrance Mew had said would be there. "Punzie, are you sure this is the right way?" Maili said, looking right down into a 90 degree straight down drop by the looks of it. Mew nodded and floated out of Punzies arms and then over the hole, before flying straight down it. "...Welp. Guess we'll have to find another way right-" and Punzie went down the hole too. "Holy shit! Punzie you can't just jump down holes randomly!" Paul yelled as he jumped after her. Eventually everyone went down the hole against their better judgment, and everyone ended up safe and sound in the middle of a dark cave, a bit bruised and dirty but safe. "Cindy, can you give us a hand?" There was a bright red glow for a second before a purple flame appeared, lighting the cave. "Thanks Ray, now we can see..." Paul turned to look at the hole. "Well we definitely can't go back that way..." the group kept looking around when Silvia thought she heard something growling above them. "Hey guys...do you hear that?" She remarked, before looking up at the ceiling with everyone else following her lead. With the help of Cindy and her candle light, the group where all able to make out two large yellow eyes surrounded by a green border on a silver body of sharp spikes held to the ceiling of the cave by sharp green tendrils. The Pokémon let out a loud roar before the purple light of Cindy suddenly went away, the group turned to ask Ray if Cindy was ok, only to see Ray and Cindy running as fast as they could deeper into the cave away from the Ferrothorn. "Hey! Wait for us!" Chase yelled as the rest of the group started running. After a bit of running Maili turned to Luka, "wait, Ferrothorn are grass steel type, can't your Growlith take it out easily?" Luka nodded with a look of realization as he tossed out his Pokémon. "Growlith! Flame Wheel! NOW!" The fire dog turned to face the large Pokémon chasing them, and started charging directly at it, embers starting to burn on its fur the faster it ran, soon its body was enveloped in a ring of fire, which it launched at the chaser. The large blast of fire struck the Pokémon head on, sending it crashing to the ground, beaten, and unconscious. "Good work buddy!" Luka called the Pokémon back with a smile, but the victory was short lived as behind the crashed Ferrothorn the group could see dozens and dozens of glowing small yellow eyes glaring at them. "Yeah...we don't have enough fire types for this..." next thing the group knew they where being shot at by a barrage of spikes, they ran for cover in a nearby opening and entered a large chamber, safe for now. "Anyone get stuck with those spikes?" A few nodded, pulling them from their cloths or skin like green splinters, thankfully none of them where too deep or big. The groups attention was brought to Mew, who had suddenly gotten out of Punzies arms and floated over to a wall, Cindy provided some light and they all stared at a large mural on the wall, depicted where two Mews, one blue and one pink, the two danced happily with each other in one carving, the next showed the two exploring when a bright glow was seen by them on the top of a mountain, the next showed the two climbing the mountain together, helping each other to the top, when they got to the top they saw a large orange and black crystal had emerged from a geode of some kind, the next showed the pink one go to get a closer look as the blue one seemed scared of the crystal, the next showed a large amount of dark energy emerging from the crystal, and grabbing the pink mew and striking the blue one, sending it flying off the mountain, the last one was simply the image of the pink Mew trapped in the crystal, asleep. The blue Mew stared at the Mural before it started to cry, Punzie quickly went to her Mew, holding it in her arms, hugging it tightly to help calm it down. Soon it stopped crying, falling asleep in Punzies arms, and Ray noticed a line of Unknown letters at the bottom of the mural. "Cindy, can you shine the light lower for a second?" His Pokémon obliged, illuminating the text. "What's a game without Lore? Our special Blue Mew must have brought you here, can you help them? Have fun with your Blue Quest! -the department of pocket monsters." Ray read aloud as the rest looked at each other. "So should we look for that mountain?" "I mean, probably, our mew seems to know this pink one..." "do we even know what mountain that is?" As the group muttered in discussions, Luka noticed a small glowing green dot in the corner of the room. He got close to it and saw that it wasn't just a dot, but a small Pokémon, and it was small, he only needed to wrap one of his fingers around it to hold it. It was nothing more than a green blob with a red thing inside it and one eye staring up at him. He tried to think of any Pokémon that looked like this but he was drawing a blank at first. "Hey there friend, wanna leave this cave with me?" He held out a pokéball to the creature waiting to see what it would do. The blob looked....happy? It's hard to tell with just one eye, but the Pokémon did willingly go into the pokéball, letting Luka now have two Pokémon. He rejoined everyone else to find them looking over a map. "Ok...I think we found it then?" Ray asked, pointing to a mountain on the map. "It dose look like it's picture there." Paul remarked, comparing the two mountains. "Alright, then its agreed we all head that way?" Maili asked, to which everyone nodded in agreement. The group all peeked out to make sure it was safe to leave, as they did they started to head up and out of the cave, trying to get to the surface and out of the cave.
