Lillie watched as the Pokeball captured Misdreavus. She asked Avalon to bring it to her because she was still a little loopy from what she assumed was Confuse Ray. After a few minutes, Lillie was able to stand again. She put away her newest Pokeball and, once again, continued on.

Her head was clearer now, allowing her to better survey her surroundings. Lillie looked at the trees surrounding path, in the dark they looked dark and grim. Lillie saw something off in the dark of the woods that made her heart race. Focusing on it, Lillie realized it was a tree that vaguely resembled the human figure. Lillie brushed it off. It was just her alone with Avalon and Circe in the woods, nobody else. Nobody else, except for wild pokemon. 

She was close to the edge of the forest after walking a bit, but every so often the path would branch off and she would be forced to chose. She typically chose left until she had no option but to go right. It was aggravating. She just wanted to get out of the forest. She considered throwing a tantrum, but then she remembered that there was nobody around to bend to her will. She would have to grow up and take charge. "Not to alarm anyone, but I think I may have gotten us lost." Circe looked disappointed, but she was used to it. When they first began their journey, Lillie had gotten the then-trio lost all the time, so this wasn't new for Circe. The goth pokemon searched about looking for the proper path to travel on.

With Circe in the lead, things seemed a lot less random. Sure, the paths twisted and turned, but the small pokemon seemed to know where she was going. Lillie stopped them for a quick rest, trying not to get too exhausted. She leaned against a tree, her right arm dangling against her side. After a few minutes, Circe started to lick her hand. Before she looked down, Lillie said, "Woah there Circe." Only, when she looked down, it was a light blue pokemon instead of her black one. Lillie pulled back her hand, wiping it on the tree. "Sorry, Circe. Oh, you should battle her. Use Psychic!" Circe focused on her opponent, massive amounts of psychic energy inflict pain upon Nidorina, who then clamps her jaws down upon Circe. Circe cringes at the attack and tries to get away, but she isn't fast enough and Nidorina clamps down her jaws again. Fearing for her pokemon's safety, Lillie switches her out for Permafrost. When Frosty first hits the ground, Nidorina hisses at it, before waggling her little tail. Swinub's guard seems to drop, but Lillie urges him to attack. He freezes the ice above Nidorina before crashing it down upon her. Nidorina flips around and uses her hind legs to smack into him twice. "End it Permafrost! Use Icicle Crash, again!" The swine pokemon froze the air above Nidorina, before slamming down the ice. 

Lillie exhaled, hopefully, it was over.
