(Notices Rue's current reaction.)
Rue... J-just take easy, okay?...
There's... No... W-way to prove that was.. what it was...

Wait... What is that black stuff doing?

Rue: “That’s what happens when you touch it. You get drawn in. Unless you’re very strong or very lucky…”
Again, she trailed off. Some weak sniffles could be heard from her as tears freely fell from her drooped head.
Rue: “She… she has to be gone. She has to be…”

@Rue
She isn't gone! There's no way to prove that!
That had to be some sort of fucked up trick!
A FLUKE!
I mean... Wouldn't there be signs of a struggle?
Scratch marks?
Burn marks?
BLOOD?
Wouldn't we have heard something?
Screaming, or something?
ANYTHING?
Look, there has to be some other way way to explain what we just saw, you hear me?
FENNINKOU CANNOT BE DEAD!
Rue shook her head and clutched it. She was trembling a bit, and she quietly sniffled some more.
Rue: “L-let me grieve. Please… let me grieve.”
She sounded so certain of something Pikavee found so awful. Clearly, it really bothered her.
She understood little of what was happening as is. From Rue’s reaction to the whole thing, to the void shadow looking like Fenninkou and then falling apart, to what she currently assumed to have been a vision–the vision where she very well watched her own death.
But she did realize this current path was no good.

@Pikavee
I-I think we should go, like now!-

And at any rate, they were in no shape to fight multiple opponents.
Pikavee stepped away from the encroaching void shadows with a gulp.
Pikavee: “W-we’ll have to find another way around.”

Pikavee: “But, Rue. I-I think there’s still a chance. We’ll find her.”
Rue’s expression didn’t change. She slowly moved to grip onto Pikavee a little bit tighter, bracing for a retreat, and said nothing else.
Pikavee: “H-hang in there…”
She would turn tail and flee a moment after.
Meanwhile, Hazel still held Fenninkou in her arms.
Fenninkou: “You know, you can let go of me–”
Hazel had started glancing about again, more attentively. Both ears were perked up.
It was that noise from just before–a low rumbling of some kind. Fenninkou, however, didn’t hear it. She certainly didn’t see anything, either.
Fenninkou: “I’m fine, really.”
Hazel: “On that leg? No, you’re not. If we need to get away fast and you fall behind… y-you’re staying right here. I am not losing you again.”
Fenninkou sulked in her arms. The rumbling was at a distance, already faint and growing ever fainter. It stopped moments later.
Hazel sighed, and her ears slacken. Her expression softened upon glancing at Fenninkou–though she didn’t completely relax.
Hazel: “Speaking of. Let me see your leg again.”
Hazel repositioned Fenninkou in her arms somewhat, just to better scrutinize the wound on her hind leg. Her eyes would further furrow with concern, even though the injury itself didn’t look any worse.
Hazel: “Right. You need an oran berry. Oran berry, oran berry…”
She slowly looked around for said oran berry bush. In doing so, she became progressively distracted and disturbed.
Moments of silence passed with Hazel leerily eyeing her surroundings.
Hazel: “I swear, it’s following us.”
Hazel: “It’s big, whatever it is. I can feel it in its aura.”
More moments of silence. Fenninkou again took a quick glimpse around, before looking up at Hazel with confusion.

Fenninkou: “What are you talking about?”
