Not long after giving Ollie her whole truth, someone who was willing to help carry the weight of her uncertainties, Yuina brought him out to the wilds around Fortree City where she had been spending every spare moment she could in search of her shinzoku...[break]
Between her job at the museum, being tasked with ranger's missions, and not being able to expend organization resources on the search because she wasn't willing to report it, she had only been able to cover so much ground at a given time... But now, she had help... As cautious as she was about it still... It was welcomed.[break][break]
This wasn't about her, it shouldn't be, not when someone else's life was at stake, she should have put her own shadows out of the equation well before this... She only hoped that they were alright, if they were in fact out here...[break][break]
Holding the piece of survey corps uniform that she had found before, clutched closely, carefully, guarded... A precious memory, Yuina had offered it to Kano the Arcanine and Moroe the Zorua as the two canines started out in their search of the farthest reaches of the swamplands. Harrow the Braviary lofted in the air above them, keen senses sharp to see anything from above, while Delton the Decidueye stalked through the tall grasses on his long legs, head perched on a swivel.[break][break]
"I've been all along the general path that we initially followed that night that we found the Ursaluna," Yuina began, holding out a map for Ollie, a visual of her exploits.[break]
"And made it as far north as Fortree City, but I'm certain that they wouldn't have gotten too close to civilization...," she recounted, especially if someone had found them first... There would have been many many reports about it.[break][break]
"So we've started to work our way back down from Fortree City, and I've been searching ever since...."

[attr="class","littleollie"] It hadn't been long since Ollie had been out here. In fact, he was surprised that it was FORTREE CITY that she had found her clues in, but then again, a lot of strange things had been happening around there as of late — especially after the events of that night.

[break][break] He sent a quick text to freya morningstar before he left — while he didn't give the Councilwoman all the details that Yuina had shared with him, he certainly gave her enough that they could request for League back-up if anything happened. He'd promised Yuina that he would keep as much of her secret as was safe, and at least for now — he didn't intend on backing out of that promise.

[break][break] He arrives in no time at all, and they set off shortly, just as Yuina starts to give him a debrief of events. The Head Ranger accepted the map, glancing over it as she spoke.

[break][break] "That sounds about right. I haven't heard of any unusual suspects in any Ranger reports from Fortree, but I'll be sure to keep an eye out later if anything comes up."

[break][break] Reaching into his belt, he releases his Pidgeot.

[break][break] "Saffron!" he calls. "See if ya can see anything weird out there."

[break][break] The bird gives a slight caw before heading out, the shadow of it's wide wingspan washing over them as it's KEEN EYE surveys the area.

[break][break] With that done, Ollie turns to her. He offers a gentle smile.

[break][break] "How're you doing? You okay?"

Taking careful, calculated steps through the tall grasses of the area, Yuina walked with Ollie as they started out on their trek. Her eyes followed Kano for a couple of moments as the Arcanine sniffed through a grouping of trees in the distance, before Ollie spoke in regards to the map she had offered him. It would have been very likely that if anyone had spotted someone strange within the depths of the marshes of the area that it would have been reported... It only made Yuina worry more that she was either delusional for thinking that someone survived, or that they wouldn't be alright if they did end up finding them...[break][break]
Above them, Harrow looked out at the Pidgeot that was joining him in the air. The Braviary swept aside and moved to undertake a different section of surveilance, offering room for the other bird in kind, a thanks for the assistance. Yuina followed the bird's shadow for a time, as it drifted along the grasses before disappearing, her eyes cast down still at Ollie's gentle question.[break][break]
"... I... I don't know...," she murmered after a moment, careful around a marsh puddle as she side stepped the water.[break]
"Knowing that someone is looking for me... But not knowing why, not understanding what it means, and what I could do help myself... It's really demoralizing...," Yuina returned after a quiet moment, clutching the survey corps patch close to her. It felt like she was being accused and arrested for a crime that she did in fact commit, but had no recollection of doing so, no understanding of what it meant to her and why it was important... How was she supposed to make peace with that?

[attr="class","littleollie"] If Ollie didn't know any better, he would've thought that they were just talking a peaceful walk together. Sunlight trickled down through the treetops, creating beautiful patches of light that dappled the path ahead.

[break][break] But they weren't. This was something important.

[break][break] "It's scary," Ollie confirms. His voice is gentle as he watches Yuina Higashi, her face twisted on consternation. He didn't know exactly what it was like to be targeted, but he could only imagine. He'd felt like that in the years after Kanto, when he'd been trying to run away from everything.

[break][break] "But remember - you're not alone. I'm here. The League's here. We're all here to help you." He glanced upwards to see if Saffron had found anything. When he didn't see the pokemon return, he looked at Yuina, gesturing to the small patch of fabric that she clutched close to her chest.

[break][break] "What's that?"

All things considered, Yuina took in Ollie's few words of her circumstances. It... It was scary, she was terrified of what all of this meant, how quickly everything had become so delicate... Did she have to worry about being found at any given time? How far would this woman go to find her, and what would happen when she did?[break][break]
"I just wish I knew what she wants with me... Wondering what I've done and having no way to find out just keeps gnawing at me, I- I can't stop thinking about it," Yuina murmered, she was loosing sleep, she didn't feel safe... How long would she have to spend like this? Watching over her shoulder for something she didn't know when it would come?[break][break]
Glancing out to her few Pokemon that searched with them, Yuina found Moroe padding towards her through the grasses. The fox yipped, yellow eyes intent as she pawed up at Yuina. Leaning down, she offered the swatch of fabric to the fox again, Moroe needed another scent trail to follow, and off she went again into the grasses.[break][break]
Looking over the patch, grazing her thumbs over the embroidery, Yuina looked to Ollie at his question. She almost smiled, a fond memory.[break]
"It's funny actually... Drawing parralels and comparisons between then and now, the Survey Corps was kind of like Pokemon Rangers, well before rangers were an organized concept," Yuina offered, spreading out the fabric a bit more, displaying the patch.[break][break]
"When settlers came to Jubilife Village, they could join the Survey Corps, and this was the emblem on their uniform. The survey corps were explorers, researchers, the ones who would leave the village gates to venture into the wilds. They studied the Pokemon of the land closely, documenting the ecology and the different environments," she explained.[break]
"It's the same emblem I wore too..."

[attr="class","littleollie"] "I wish I knew too."

[break][break] Though he was here to help support her, Ollie knew that he was out of his element here too. He knew little to nothing about the mysterious figure that was apparently chasing his friend, but that didn't make him want to stop helping her. They would find it out together — they had to.

[break][break] A gentle hand rests on her shoulder, squeezing it in what he hopes is a comforting gesture.

[break][break] Before he can say anything else, however, the fabric in her hand catches his attention.

[break][break] The Survey Corps?

[break][break] Ollie knew as much about Yuina Higashi as she knew about herself, but at least he could take some gratification in knowing that she still had pieces of memories tucked away that she was willing to share with him.

[break][break] "Is that why you wanted to join the Rangers?" he asked. "Because it reminded you of home?"

Walking with Ollie, trying to force herself to step past the uncertainies, if only for a little bit... Yuina leaned into the gentle squeeze at her shoulder, a reassurance. She wanted to believe that she wasn't alone, that she wouldn't have to wonder what her future would hold without knowing she had support... But it wasn't fair to those around her, to expect so much of them... It was a detrimental bridge to stand on.[break][break]
Instead she glanced, almost longingly, to the emblem she held in her hands, remembering her service in the survey corps, learning everything that she had about survival and the Pokemon of that far away place.[break][break]
"Hmm... Maybe? It's hard to say. I interviewed with you before the distortion in the swamps... I didn't remember anything then. But I guess maybe it still felt right, or familiar? I didn't really have any other direction back then...," Yuina recalled, she had no recollection of what had happened to her before the events of the missing persons search in the fall. But still, even in her earliest days of this new life, she felt compelled to do something good, which only made her more concerned that she wasn't good before...[break][break]
"Why did you join the Rangers, Ollie?"
