It didn't take long for Makoto to find a good addition to their team, the first time they stepped into Fiery Path. Thus, odds were, another look through the volcanic tunnels wouldn't hurt - perhaps this time around, they could find themself a proper fire-type? Or at the very least, a pokemon that wasn't part dark-type. They loved dark-types and all, but they recognized that some variety would do them some good, honestly. There were clear gaps in their type coverage that needed patching up, if they were going to be able to be of use to anyone.

(And honestly, for as much as they could deal with the cold, the warmth of Fiery Path was a very welcome escape still. The weather had no business being so cold, even if it had been caused by one of the many events that seemed to wrack Hoenn on a monthly basis!)

Thus, with Tsume and Kuro both keeping an eye out for any wild pokemon, the trio would wander along - Makoto leading the way, as they idly toyed with an empty pokeball in their pocket. They weren't gonna let some predator come as close to attacking them as Oni had, when they first encountered the ornery Drapion, to say the least. Even if Yurei and Kuro both did well in fending him off, and in helping Makoto catch him... It wasn't a close call that they were going to repeat - lest they tempt fate.

Makoto didn't see it straight away, dormant as it was whilst clinging to the ceiling of the tunnel. But with a sudden shift and rattle, a large centiskorch would stir from its slumber - a pair of eyes glancing down at them, as its antennae lit up in trailing flames. Initially, both insect and trio were startled - eyes meeting as either side stared one another down, waiting for the other to make a move. Nobody expected to have this close of an encounter, it seemed!

But thankfully, the centiskorch did not appear to be interested in fighting them. Slowly, carefully, it would begin to move away - before skittering off around a corner, once it felt far enough away. Distantly, the little tip-a-taps of its legs could still be heard echoing against the stone - though it grew fainter and fainter as the distance between them increased...

... And well, Makoto couldn't help but have a laugh over it all. "So much for us being more careful, hm?" They'd muse humorously - smiling gently as they knelt down to give Kuro a reassuring pat on the head. "Goes to show that not everything is out to get us, though - right Kuro?"

The little zorua didn't appear convinced - but nonetheless, it'd tilt its head into their touch - enjoying the contact.

With the surprise having long-since passed though, the group moved on - eager to see what else the tunnels had to offer.

In the wanderings through the tunnels, Tsume had been quite aware of something - and while he was sure Kuro had noticed it too, he was not sure if Makoto had. Namely, of the fact that they were being followed. Not by anything threatening - whatever he kept catching glimpses of, hiding behind corners and rocks, was relatively small and young-looking. But nonetheless, the pokemon had been following them around through Fiery Path for some time now - not long before they had that brief run-in with the centiskorch.

And Tsume, all the whilst, couldn't help but wonder... Why did this pokemon decide to tail them so, if it wasn't to fight or prey upon them? What was this pokemon, too - given the glimpses that he caught were only of bits of purple, and a tail or horns?

"Tsume? What's got your attention?"

The Zoroark blinked - and glancing back to Makoto, he simply chuffed and shook his head. It was nothing that they needed to worry ab--

MEH!

A sharp noise would make Tsume's ears snap upwards - and glancing to the side, he could see it now. The pokemon that had been following them, not only did it reveal itself, but it got closer! Close enough to lightly tug at Makoto's pantleg in fact, making cries for attention all the whilst.

And Makoto, smiling gently, couldn't help but be endeared to this. "Hello, little Toxel. Where'd you come from?" They greeted - taking the time to pull out a pair of gloves, so as to safely handle the poison-type. Carefuly, they lifted it up - a hand stroking over the baby pokemon's head. "Not safe, for you to be all alone like this." And they could use a poison-type, really. "Why don't you come with us, then?"
