Log:

It had been a long trip back to Cherrygrove. Firion had still been rather reluctant to battle ever since that incident with the Qwilfish. He wasn't afraid of Pokemon or anything like that, and his Pokemon were much stronger than the ones on this route, but it still worried him, in general. He knew the Pokemon seemed to enjoy battling, but he truly had thought he would lose Leila. Besides, Light should have more time to give his own Pokemon experience.

Finally, they crossed into town, the music changing once more to a familiar sound. "Should we start at the beach?" Firion turned to Light and asked.

He wasn't too surprised by Firion's question or that it was directed to Cecil only. It was natural that Firion would ask Cecil, his former travel partner, to go with him and the Warrior. (Assuming the two were travelling together, that is.) Firion probably already knew that Squall had been reluctant to travel with anyone in the beginning of the Conflict. For the second half, it was necessity for all of them to travel together.

Still, although he wouldn't admit it, it did hurt somewhat not to be asked. Not that he cared if he was asked to travel with them. He didn't.

Squall shrugged, shaking his head when his Cyndaquil whined at him. Either his starter was wanted more attention from him or it was knew something it should. Staring at the fire-type for a moment, the SeeD glanced back toward the water.

"He's probably with this... 'girl'," Squall muttered, rolling his eyes. "Zidane mentioned something about her the last time," the only time, "we talked."

Now was probably a good time to take his leave. Cecil would probably be taken good cared of by the Warrior and Firion. It's not like they needed him anymore.

Firion gave Cecil a reassuring smile. "Do not worry. Light and I have enough money to get you some supplies for the trip."

He looked to Squall and nodded. He remembered Zidane mentioning a princess during their travels, but he was not aware that she had arrived here as well. Firion could only hope they were doing well and that they were safe as well. "I am sure we will inevitably meet again, then."

Then, he hesitated slightly. Firion knew that Squall liked to travel alone. His reasons were his own and he would not push them, however...

"Would you like the accompany us as well?"

Light nodded in agreement. There was not much that he had spent his money on, and he would not at all mind giving up some of it in order to buy things for the group.

When Firion asked Squall if he would join them, the Warrior glanced up, a bit startled. He had simply assumed that Squall would be joining them as well. He knew that Squall liked to travel alone, of course. It had once worried him, because he had not been sure that Squall would be able to take care of himself if he traveled on his own. "We would be glad to have you travel with us," he added.
