"Well," Procyon said staring up at the mountain looming above above them. "There it is." "Sand..." Tumbleweed commented from atop Taron's head. "So, I suppose we should go in huh?" Taron asked. "Yeah, I guess we should." Taron lead the way in. Reason being because Taron's primary sense, was that of his hearing. Whereas Procyon's, (Like most people) was sight. Therefore Taron was the one to lead. He stepped boldly into the cave that was the entrance to Mount Moon. "Jeez, it sure is dark in here." Procyon said. Taron stopped and planted his walking stick firmly into the ground. "take a second, wait for your eyes to adjust to the darkness." A moments pause then... "Okay, let's go." Taron nodded and proceeded to lead the way. "Zuuuuuu!" Procyon ducked just in time to avoid the maniac zubat flying dive-bombing his head. "Whoa!" He shouted as the daredevil faded into the darkness. Taron pressed his hand on the left wall of the tunnel. He used that and his walking stick to guide him. "So, Procyon, how's it feel to be blind?" Taron asked in a self-mocking tone. Procyon laughed. "Oh gee, it's marvelous. I can't beleive I never tried it before." There was a pause that lasted a moment. "Taron?" Procyon muttered nervously. "You still there?" "Yeah, I'm listening." Procyon was about to mutter something about the blind leading the blind, but decided against it. Procyon faintly heard what sounded like the intake of breath... a moment of silence then.... "HHHHHHHHHHHHEEEEEEEEEEELLLLLLLLLLLLLLOOOOOOOOOOO???????" Procyon let out a yelp of surprise and leaped about a foot into the air. Tumbleweed rolled off of his perch. "Taron what the heck are you doing??" Procyon yelled. "You almost gave me a heart attack." "Shh! You're making to much noise." Procyon groaned and facefaulted. "I'm trying to listen to the echos." He paused a moment then, "okay we go this way." He lead them down the left tunnel a little way when, " "Hey! watch where your going!" A squeaky male voice cried. "Sorry kid." By the sound of his voice Taron guessed that the kid was a beggining trainer. "You bumped into me, that means we have to battle." Taron was unaware of this rule. He shrugged. "Whatever. Two each." The kid nodded. "Okay" "I choose you..... Weedle." the sound of a pokeball hitting the ground was heard. "Okay then, Pierre, it's go time." "yuh?" (OOC: well how would YOU write that grunting noise caterpie makes?) "Ok weedle you your Poison Sting." Caterpie got stung. after a moment it spasmed. It was poisoned. "Pierre use your tackle!" "Yuh!" Pierre lurched forward and... nudged weedle. it fell over backwards then got back up. "Okay weedle use your own tackle." Again there was lurching and nudging. "Pierre, quick tackle!" More lurching (only quicker this time) and this time the nudge sent the enemy weedle flying backwards. It tried to stand up but fell over with a wonded sounding "Weedle.." Caterpie seemed to gasp. There was a flashing light that forced all those present who could see to turn away. "Hey Taron congratulations, It just evolved into a Metapod." Taron nodded and recalled it. They walked a few feet more, down the tunnel. "Hey Taron! I can see the exit from here." Taron took off his sunglasses and handed them to Procyon, "Here, put these on." Procyon looked at him confused. "Why?" "Because, right now, your pupils are about half the size of your eyeballs." Taron exaggerated. "And you do not want that much sunlight in your eyes at once. Procyon shrugged and put on the sunglasses. The two of them walked out of the cave and emerged in a field just outside of Cerulean City. Tee Bee See (dot dot dot)
