And this made you smile, even if you were getting a bit more spooked every passing minute. But you knew that it wouldn’t be the only reason. If you had asked him why, he would have retorted that he needed to get there before you, even if it was barely by a few seconds. Before you realized it, he was holding your arm with both of his hands.īut he still walking a little bit ahead of you. ![]() He stumbled a few times with low growls of frustration, and every time you got closer and closer to each other. “Don’t tell me this is a path you never saw before?” You asked, a slight trembling in your voice.īut his footing was less solid than before. You couldn’t miss his confused blinking even in the weak green lighting. “If we keep going this way, we’ll emerge in Stow-on-Side.” Bede mumbled, more for himself than for you. The suspense made you brace yourself, expecting a jumpscare, a prank, anything typical of the ghosts. The usual rustling of the fairies was quiet, the air still. You walked a bit closer to him, sharing your natural warmth without clearly saying you did. He shivered a little, this time more because of the growing cold. “The air is thick with ghosts.” Bede grumbled, tightening his grasp on your wrist, ever so slightly. He walked with no hesitation on the even ground, his eyes scanning the area, the fingers of his free hand stroking the green mushrooms with an absentminded softness, almost making you jealous of the glowing fungi.īut you noticed the mushroom didn’t shed as much light as the last time you went through the enchanted forest. Lucky for you, not only because this was the closest thing to holding hands that you could hope for at the moment but also because you always got hopelessly lost when you were traveling through the area.īut there was no chance of getting lost with Bede leading the way. “Of course not.” He said with his usual confidence, even if his eyes darted away from you as he spoke.Īnd he didn’t let go of your wrist as you entered the dark, eerie, magical Glimwood Tangle. The slightest shiver crossed his back, and only you could notice him, for you knew him much better than he would admit. “They’re scared of ghosts.” He replied with disdain. “Are your gym trainers going to help?” You asked. You had to time to properly enjoy the sight and sound of him so serious, because there might be a baby in danger, but you committed every detail to memory to replay the scene later. “This better be a harmless prank, or someone will have to answer to me.” He declared on his harshest tone. He frowned, which made him both menacing and cuter. Halloween is getting closer, the Stow-on-Side ghosts are more and more active…” “Annette said she heard a typical ghost laugh just after she noticed the disappearance. “A lot of fairies are also psychic… maybe the baby teleported?” You suggested. She left the room for five minutes and it was gone.” “Annette-one of the gym trainers-was looking over an unknown Pokémon egg. ![]() Instead of his pastel Fairy uniform, he wore a hot pink hoodie and white jeans that somehow revealed more of his silhouette than his usual shorts.Īs he was still pulling you in a sulky silence, you decided to question him a bit. The chilly October air had made you wear a light coat, but you didn’t expect him to also dress for the weather. You stifled a chuckle at the familiar occurrence, for you knew he would not take kindly to you calling him cute or anything else of the sort. Sure, he had called you and ordered you – not asked, and not even that politely – to stop wasting his time and come to Ballonlea in emergency, but you didn’t mind. “Let it be clear that I’m not the one who needs your help.” “Hi, Bede!” You greeted him cheerfully, as always. You barely had the time to set foot in Ballonlea and thank the taxi driver that Bede grabbed your wrist and pulled you behind him towards Glimwood Tangle.
