On the flight to the Frosty Forest and Mount Absol, I went into full detail about my plan to Staraptor.

She decided to fly around Lewis' house.

The Frosty Forest was much further than I expected, 12 miles away in fact.

"You never took me here before. I've only seen you fly to Gyarados Lake. You really fly here weakly?" I asked.

"Yup. I never took you because you hate the cold."

"Yeah. Ya got that right. But I'm gonna have to live with for now," I replied.

There was an unbroken silence.

"Oh! By the way! How would you like training?" she asked.

"Training? Whaddya mean?" I replied.

"Y'know? Training you to fight. Learn Pokemon attacks. Gallade is one heck of a fighter and I think letting him teach you some attacks could be really good for you," Staraptor added.

"Hmm... Like, showing me attacks? Teaching me focus blast and stuff like that? Sure, I could give it a shot. That actually sounds kinda cool."

"I thought about it, and well, Team Plasma may find you one day. They'll try to capture you, but what they won't expect is that you know how to defend yourself."

"That's a really good idea," I praised.

"I knew it would be," sneered Staraptor.

Silence.

"So what'd you think of our funny accents?" Staraptor joked.

"You sound British, Weavile sounded Canadian mixed with New Zealander, Blaziken sounds like a businessman, Ampharos talks like a body builder with a cold, and Floatzel sounds like a character from any kids movie."

She had an outburst of laughter.

I couldn't help but laugh with her.

"I love your sense of humor! Haha! Bodybuilder with a cold I think was my favorite one."

"I really wasn't expecting Weavile's accent though. None of you sounded like what I pictured in my head," I chuckled.

"Should I visit you at all? I was wondering about that. I don't want Team Plasma y'know, following me."

"Try to visit every... Two weeks. But visit on a random day. Don't go every other Monday or Tuesday. One day visit on Thursday, next time visit Monday. Make it unpredictable. They won't notice it."

"Gotcha. Anyways, here we are," she replied.

I began to feel the cool air rush through my fur.

I shuddered.

I had to close my eyes to prevent the snow and strong winds blasting from blinding me.

In little time, I could tell that Staraptor had landed.

I opened my slightly frozen eyes, dropped from Staraptor, and looked around me.

We were on a high mountain peak covered in snow.

There was a small blizzard shrouding the mountain.

"Gallade!" Staraptor called.

Out of a cave appeared a Gallade.

"Why hello Staraptor. How are you good friend," he greeted with a smile.

"Hi Gallade, now look, this is gonna sound crazy but... Remember when I told you my trainer went missing?" Staraptor asked.

"Yes. You told me he was taken 4 days ago. Why?" Gallade replied.

"Well...like I said, this is gonna sound crazy, but you gotta believe me on this. You see, this is Damian. My trainer. He can explain the story better than I can."
