You should have listened.


You should have listened to Ventus and take the longer but safer way.

You should have not accepted the RV ride with the others.

...

THIS IS YOUR FAULT.
YOU FAILED. 



Something deep inside Shiva must have cracked. Something she didn't know existed at all. Nathan's words seemed miles away, although he was speaking just next to her. She tried hard not to... She fought it as best as currently possible... 


... but she lost that battle as well. Her tears fell completely silent, innocently, although they were filled with an unbelievable amount of bitterness over the situation and her failure to protect what she held dear.


She gladly accepted the blanket from Belle, without words, and carefully wrapped it around her injured companion. She'll hold on to Plusle, all by herself, untill the end if needed. Wordlessly she picked up Minun, who seemed relatively unharmed, and allowed her to cuddle up to both, her positively-charged counterpart and her Master/owner/playmate. Must be worried as hell. She carefully laid the long end of the tartan scarf she still wore around the Electric rodent, shielding it from any harm. Like if she was afraid to loose the other one as well.

...Does this belong to a Trainer's life? Is it usual to face such a thing when calling yourself a 'Trainer'? Is it part of the routine? Does it belong to some sort of learning process? Is such an experience necessary...? Why?! If the answers were 'Yes', then she doesn't want to be one. None told her that there will be such things. None warned her. All she wanted was to explore the region, given the opportunity, gather some own Pokemon as companions, and care for them. Befriend them. Meet all sorts of Pokemon and people in all sorts of places. But not...this.

Potions... Ah. All she cared about were the toxins. Antidotes won't help here. Antidotes. Poison-Types. It were always the Poison-Types. They're nothing but trouble. Maybe... berries? Not really. Plusle needed professional medical care, in a Pokemon Center, AS SOON AS POSSIBLE. 

Nevertheless, she dried some (couldn't stop them all) of her tears before turning to Ventus and telling him in a low and toneless voice that she'll join him on searching for berries and possibly snatch some potions from lurking Trainers. It seemed like the most stupid and irrational idea right now to her - but if it will help her Electric rodent, she'll be up for it. Not going to just sit around and wait, now when they need her the most.

She just went a few meters, following wherever Ventus went on search for aid, when something in the tree next to her rustled. Minun at once concentrated her attention on the spot, ready to jump out of her Master's safe arms to attack if needed. If she wasn't mistaken, this was the same tree where she spotted something that looked like a crow before the Weezing attacked...

Mechanics: 
Bring up that special Murkrow. Minun will tackle it, no matter what, and Shiva will not attempt to catch it either. Her mood will swing to a nasty vengeful one against the attacker.
