Thick branches and broad, strange leaves rustled as Zac snuck through the opening and into the Tree of Life. "We've gotta stay quiet," he whispered to Sam, as the pair slunk from bush to bush. "It's not often we get a chance to sneak around, and I don't want to have to call in any Rocket favors to get out." He winked at his adventuring accomplice.

sam resists the urge to remind zac that he's very sneaky, having snuck whole cargos of bodies from johto to kanto under rocket's nose, but he keeps that information to himself. focusing on, in fact, being 'sneaky.'

the idea of 'rocket favors' has sam smirking.

"so you know a few yourself?" his question is asked in a near whisper, hushed enough that they wouldn't be heard beyond just their own earshot.

"Maybe one or two," Zac said, returning Sam's smile. "How do you think I got a hold of the Groudon Canon?" 

The memory of their evening fireworks fight left Zac grinning like an idiot, but his mouth opened wide in gaping wonder when he saw the inside of the tree. 

From outside it had seemed like a regular, everyday, giant, magic tree. But from inside. "It's like a slice of a different world!" Zac said, looking around at the alien flora. The plants grew in steady, illogical spirals, twisting as if pulled by foreign gravities. The fruits were gorgeously misshapen, all ovoid and elliptical, their rinds in glowing shapes of aqua, lavender, and burgundy. "Mate...we've gotta bring some of these back," Zac said, plucking a few samples and stuffing them in his bag. 

Underfoot, Zac's GRASSY TERRAIN sprung sprigs of terran grass and flowers. Little patches of home among this garden of distant delights. 

Zac sent out a few of his Minior. The balls of green and yellow shot off through the foreign foliage, taking footage of the new biome. "Have you ever seen anything like it?"

the memory of the giant fireworks battle had sam smirking as well. maybe that, or the way zac grinned when recalling. either way, sam didn't bother fighting his logic.

as the entered the tree sam felt a little bit like he was supposed to be wearing a hazmat suit. he pointedly did not touch anything. if he was cursed by some sort of alien disease, sam wouldn't be patient zero. he'd let that be zac.

"it's unlike anything i've ever seen in life. a few fiction novel illustrations do hold a resemblance, though."

nothing historical, though. he glanced a phantump as it floated about and bobbed around. it seemed to steer clear when a one of the many minior's came toward it. as was it's nature, more shy than scrappy.

Phantump wafted by, leaving a faint trail of decaying berries. "You know what, I bet some of the fruit here is edible," Zac said, looking up at the arching trees above them. There was no hard canopy, and the trees grew in from the sides of the tree as much as they did the ground, piling on top of each other as they sought an obscured source of light that shone from the tree's inner zenith. 

An pair of angled, pink creatures bounced between the upper branches of a nearby tree, and Zac set off, all presence of subtlety discarded. "This way mate! There's handholds and everything!" he called to Sam. Zac pulled himself up the tree via conveniently cut chunks in the trunk. Someone or something had been here before them, making paths through the trees for easy access.

sam lifted his head up to watch the burly man just hoist himself up and make his way up the tree. it had him glancing down at his body, then at the pathway beside zac. it was makeshift, but as he studied it, he could see a sort of 'highlighted' path. in his own mind.

with that plan in mind, he ignored the local curious pokémon that had gathered and started up the tree.

"we could just as well teleport up using a pokémon," sam began to point out with a smirk. "but i didn't get my morning run in before you drug me out here. so this will have to suffice."

"Teleporting?" Zac asked, laughing as he reached the top of the cut steps and reached for a sturdy branch. "Where's the fun in that?" He pulled himself up and looked around the the next premade path. "And I dragged you out here for good reason mate. This is a new forest. Maybe even a new biome!" Zac looked around at the dense foliage, formed in strange ways and stretching up some unknowable distance into the sky. "A sky forest? Vertical forest? I don't know mate, but there's something wild about this place, and I'm gonna get to the bottom, uh, top of it."

"some people dare to call it a tree i've heard."

the mumbled sentiment is kept mostly to himself as he follows zac. the pokémon that are around seem normal enough. no new species, which he was sure had disappointed several scientist.

"i doubt this is a true to life jack and the magic beans moment, though."

that one he did say out loud. ever sassy, but every following. he could keep up with zac, even if by the end of this he was a bit winded.

"Mate this place is as much a tree as Sootopolis is a crater. Or Mt. Chimney is a hill! Technicalities do no justice to nature." Zac leaned against one of the branches as he spoke, provoking the growth of sweet lilies, that sprung from gaps in the bark. Their heavy white trumpets tilted down towards the thick branch they were standing on, full of pollen and sweet fragrance.

Zac didn't notice the flowers until a Ribombee came to investigate the new blooms. "Hey there little guy!" He said softly, crouching down to watch the Pokemon scoop handfuls of bright yellow dust out of the flower. "Hungry, ay?" The Ribombee nodded, moving from flower to flower as it stuffed its pockets and fur with the pollen. By the time it had finished new flowers had sprouted around Zac, and the busy bee set to work again. "Looks like we've got a native guide," Zac said with a grin. He looked up again, searching for the invisible terminus of the 'tree'. "Whatever it is, it's sure magical though."

technicalities do no justice to nature.

those words would not soon be forgotten. sam quite liked the ring to them, because they were true. it did, however, mean that sam's point was defeated and he shrugged his shoulders as if to surrender to the nonsensical oddities around him.

a brain of logic in a place like this? he was fighting a losing battle. he did think, however, that might think the place was pretty. if not whimsical. like being on a trip without being on one.

speaking of, the way things just sprouted around zac, it was curious. was that an avatar perk? speaking of...

"when you were chosen as an avatar," he's done enough research and seen enough of zac to know as much even if he'd never been personally told as much by zac. and then there was that body swap... "did your powers manifest immediately?"

his, pointedly, had not. he was still... cooking, as it were. or perhaps he just needed something spectacular to help his along? he wasn't sure. why not ask somebody he was comfortable speaking to about that sort of thing?

he trust zac not to make him an experiment.

"Yeah right away!" Zac said, fondly remembering the night at the Vital Spirit festival. "As soon as Bulu made that connection stuff just started blooming like crazy around me. I couldn't stop it! Still can't, really." He laughed, plucking one of the flowers that were growing on the branch and offering it to an inquisitive Treecko. The lizard reached out a long tongue, yanking the flower from Zac's grasp and into its waiting mouth. It chewed greedily, looking at Zac with wide, blinking eyes. He plucked another flower.

"Why do you ask? Know any late bloomers?"
