"I... I guess we should try calling a fire type out, and I'll use my tank to wrap the egg up?" Sleet said, unsure of the idea. She really hated fire types, but they really needed to get going again, even if she wasn't totally ready. She managed to get herself up with the support of the wall, and handed the tank to Sheba. It was the least she could do, since it seemed that from the beginning of this adventure, she'd done nothing but slow them down. She was never such a clutz, and that was frustrating her to no end as well.

" Good idea!" Sheba took the tank. " Thank you. I'll give it back to you once we're back down at the base of the mountain." It was difficult to wrap the tank around the egg and then squeeze it back into the satchel. She felt bad; the eggs from her own breeding had no such protection, but then again, they had been in the satchel the whole time while the new egg had been here, in the cold. Making sure the satchel was closed as much as all the things in it allowed, she took out the Pokéball of Napey and threw it. The little Chimchar appeared in a red light. " This is Napey", she said to Dana and Sleet. " And it was her who gave me that stupid name", the Chimchar added quickly. " Hi, everyone. Wow, it's cold here and dark! Where are we?" " It's kinda a long story. For now, we need to explore this cave and need some light. We need to find both a way out and some eggs." Sheba looked at Dana and Sleet. " Napey just has a small flame, but it's all I can offer for now. Do we have something to mark our way so we don't get lost?"

"H-Hi Napey." Sleet said, uneasy now that there was a fire type out. She couldn't help herself, she got like this with all fire types, even if the one in front of her was pretty cute. Shaking her head, she smiled, and looked around. Once she felt a bit more stable, Sleet looked around, and started to feel the walls, tapping and seeing if there were any weak spots that would hide something, or where the tunnels were. Suddenly, she stumbled, and almost fell onto a rock. Or, well, she thought it was a rock, but when she dusted herself off, she found that it was much to smooth and round to be an ordinary rock. "Hey. Sheba, Dana. I think I found another egg!"

"Wow!" Sheba rushed over. "That looks exactly like my egg! Totally exactly!" She paused, then gave a nervous laugh. "So much for that, eh? Seems you don't need to be worried then, Sleet. That can't be Moltres then if there are two of them." She had to admit, she was a bit disappointed.
"Well, does that cover the egg-part of this?" Napey asked cheerfully. "So we just need to get out? I'm freezing!"
Sheba shook her head. "No, we're supposed to find two unique eggs. I found one of these before, so our search still has not ended." She sighed. Back to square one.

"Well, now that I think about what Articuno said, there were two unique eggs that were rescued from those who turned to evil, but what if others were hidden with them as decoys by their rescuer, in order to protect the two real eggs? So we should just keep going, and find as many as possible, to ensure that we find the real ones." Looking around, she didn't see anything else in the current cave they were in, and slowly started walking toward the other tunnel entrance. "Ready to go Sheba? Dana?"

"Sounds good to me. No idea how we should transport them all, but I guess that's what we'll do. Napey, can you go to the front?" Sheba got up again. "Which of the tunnels do we take?"
Napey had walked up to a few of them, shining his little flame into them. "They all look the same, but I can feel a breeze coming from this one", he finally said, stopping in front of one. "Maybe it will lead outside."
"So is this the first or last one we take?" Sheba asked.

"H-Hi Napey..." Sleet said, trying to gain her composure again. After a few seconds, she was fine again, since this Pokemon, a Chimichar, wasn't to intimidating, at least not at the time.
"Well, I'm just gonna say the first one. I mean, if that doesn't have anything, we come back. Normally, I'd say that we should split up, but, well, I don't think that's the best option here. Articuno said it himself, we needed to be in groups, because this task was to much for one person."

"Er, hi there..." Napey gave Sleet a weird look. Had she fallen on her head or something?
Sheba looked slightly concerned, too, but there was nothing she could do - they needed Napey and his light. "I'm for sticking together, too. Not that one of us gets lost in here. That would be terrible." It was creepy enough as it was. "So, everyone ready, then? Napey, can you try to, I dunno, hold your flames against the stone so that it turns black? We need to know which way we explored and where we started."
"Yeah, sure." Napey hurried to do just that until a stone next to the tunnel they had picked had a big, black spot.
"I think we're good to go then?" Sheba walked up to the tunnel.

"I'm ready," muttered Dana, staring at both eggs in utter confusion. "Are there any other eggs similar to these?" she asked at last. "For all we know, we could be accidentally kidnapping the eggs of some native Pokemon!"
"I'm sure most Pokemon wouldn't abandon their nests, especially up here," replied Mumble. "If you're really worried, we can stick around, since any parents should appear soon if they did end up being away."
"Well...I'm afraid I don't know much about Pokemon. Do any of you know if this could be some other creature's egg?" asked Dana, looking to the other two for advice.

"Well, like I said, they might be real eggs, set as decoys for the two real ones. Whoever rescued them probably thought ahead." Sleet said, still wondering about that herself. But for now, they all needed to get moving. "Well, I guess that we should really take time to feel around. Anything that feels even the slightest bit different from one of these boulders, we should check, just to be sure."

" I thought about that, too, Dana. We can't be sure, but let's just hope for now these eggs don't have parents looking after them and that Sleet is right." Sheba started to look along the boulders like Sleet had suggested - and stopped. " H-hey..." She picked up another egg, this time in a blue-grey color that had been rather hidden thanks to that between the rocks. " Another one. Wow..." Sheba hesitated, then opened her satchel again and started putting the egg - the fourth one she was carrying now! - into it. It sure was getting crowded in there. " I found something, too!" Napey brought something to Sheba. " It's a berry! No idea how it can grow down here, but here it is. It looks good, too!" " Wow, awesome!" Sheba just hoped the berry wouldn't get squished by all her eggs.

Sleet stared in amazement at the blue-gray egg, now wondering if there were any others. She decided to really start searching more for other eggs, since by the look of it, that egg could very possibly be an ice Pokemon's egg, and that was exactly what she needed for her journey. And then, when Napey found a berry, she simply shook her head, amazed at Sheba's luck. "Wow, nice find!" she said, smiling. Suddenly, something slithered over her foot, and she jumped up, and came back down to the ground with a thud. Of course, the person that came back down, well, that was the problem. It wasn't a person, but a Glaceon. (Just for the info, though you probably get it, she accidentally shifted, since she can't control it, but it happens when she's scared or mad.)

"A blue egg? I thought we were looking for the eggs of Moltres and Zapdos! None of them have a blue theme!" exclaimed Mumble, staring at it. "It must be a decoy...or the egg of some Pokemon that lives here."
"Maybe there are more clones?" whispered Dana. "I mean, when you think about it, how would a clone even know it was a clone? Unless there was some sort of telepathy between all the clones..." Her voice faded off as she realized most of the others weren't listening to her.
"Eh?" exclaimed Mumble when he noticed Sleet transform. "Wow, I haven't seen anything along those lines before...no wait, I've seen Ditto do that."
"Are you okay, Sleet?" asked Dana. She would still be able to talk, right?

All this clone-buisness was something Sheba didn't really want to think about. It seemed to be rather scary to her. Not that abducting eggs from their parents was any better... She really didn't feel all that comfortable with keeping the eggs...
She had been so busy with packing the egg away that she hadn't noticed Sleet's shift and blinked in confusion for a second when there was suddenly a Glaceon. "Huh?...Oh! Sleet! Why did you do that? You should change back! How will you carry your backpack this way?"
(I apologize for the failpost. I'm tired.)

"I... I can't shift back. I didn't even do this on purpose!" she said, frustrated. She knew that at some point, if she trained enough, she could shift back and forth at will, but she and Glacier had barely started on that when she was taken away from Sinnoh and landed in Trilotics. Until then, she was pretty much stuck as a Glaceon.
"Sorry guys, I really don't know how to do this on my own. Some older Pokemorphs do, but, well, I haven't really gotten any help before on it. I'm kinda stuck like this...."
(No worries Sheba, mine's kinda bad to. xD)
