Babby
Bobby sat by the fire, cradling his newborn ghastly. Bisharp rolled his eyes and set out in search of some sustenance in this dark place. Bisharp was startled by flashes of movement above him, scuttling on the rock ceiling. He felt an increasing uneasiness as he continued into the cavern. He came across a massive field of wheat like plants, and could hear children laughing amongst the ambient screaming that could be heard. Bisharp could make out the outlines of leather tents in the distance, and a plume of smoke rising. He stepped through the wheat(?) and watched as it gently blew in the wind. All of a sudden five men and women in crystalline armour, brandishing spears made from bone and stone erupted from the wheat, surprising Bisharp. He wondered how humans could even be this far down, and how the wheat blew in the wind, but he knew that these answers would most likely bring more questions. The people threw out pokeballs and sableye emerged from them, each painted in different designs. The people were all pale from generations without sunlight, and paras brandishing bioluminescent spores stood on their shoulders. Bisharp darted his eyes at the humans and waited for what they would do next, but they simply murmured amongst themselves, apparently surprised at seeing a surface dweller in their cave. One of the humans scurried off, and Bisharp sat down, bored out of his mind. Eventually a pack of painted sableye walked past him, carrying Bobby and the Pawniard. Bisharp got up and roared mightily at the sableye, causing them to scatter and retreat into the darkness. Bisharp knelt down and carried Bobby and his pack of Pawniard towards the village. The people stood firm, but Bisharp walked around him. Bobby awoke and stretched out murmuring "Where are you ghastly?" While yawning. Bisharp grabbed his head and plopped him down in front of the now panicking people, and pointed to them. Bobby told them to calm down. They stopped and looked at Bobby with wonderment. One of them scratched his head as if remembering something and approached tentatively. "He-llo" she said in chopped up syllables and in a smooth accent. Bobby said hello back, and the woman struggled to find the words in her mind that the elders had taught her. "Why..." she scrunched her face in concentration "are you here?" She finally finished. Bobby realized that any complicated language would go over her head, so he simply said "shelter" the woman nodded and motioned for Bobby, Bisharp and the pawniards to follow her. She showed them inside a cramped tent and gave them a bowl of bioluminescent fungus. It didn't particularly appeal to Bobby but his stomach grumbled and reminded him that he was deathly hungry. He grabbed a piece of mushroom and bit into it, despite its strange texture it had a sweet taste and Bobby felt he wanted more. The Pawniard and Bisharp had some and soon they were all well fed. They heard speaking in a strange language outside, and an old woman entered, breathing in smoke from a bowl. "We've been expecting you" she said in perfect English.
