We then walked in through the gates. "Wow!" May said. "It's so big!" Max added. "Impressive!" Brooke said. "Amazing!" Both Ash and Pikachu said in unison. I then turn to them. "Welcome! To Inochi no ki tribe!" I said proudly with my hands on my hips and chest out. "Someone's awfully proud!" Hikari said as he hugged me from behind and looked down at me. "Of course! I'm able to show of our beautiful home! Why wouldn't I take pride in it?" I asked Hikari a rhetorical question with a smirk on my face. "Who is this mister?" Max asked me while he was looking up at both me and Hikari innocently. "This is my friend Forest Hikari the chief of this tribe. He's a good friend of mine!" I said cheerfully. "Hikari when you speak, make sure whatever you're saying to the humans you speak in your head." I instructed him. "I used telepathy so you don't have to bother with sign language." I say with a smirk on my face while poking at his ribs.
"Hey!" He said while releasing me and covering his ribs. "Hehe! Is that a soft spot?" I teased Hikari. "I'll get back at you in training! Extra indurence tree laps for you!" Hikari teased me. "Nooo!" I said dramaticly as I fall to my knees. After a few seconds of silence we both burst out laughing. "Anyways I'm gonna give these guys a tour, see ya soon!" I said as I petted him on the shoulder. "Remember what I said!" Hikari warned me in a stern voice. "Yeah I know, I'll be careful." I said to him. "I'll be off then." Hikari said before he left. "He'll be watching from a distance." I informed the group to them.
"He's protective." Brooke said. "I don't blame him, you guys are the first humans to ever step foot into this tribe." I said to them. "This tree is called the tree of life. It's what the name of this tribe translates to. I wouldn't be alive if it weren't for the sap it produces." I explained to them. "Really?!" Ash said in astonishment. "Yes but from experience it is incredibly painful to take. Just four drops is enough to bring me back to life. It would most likely be half for Pikachu. Each drop that goes down the throat of the patient is like lava. Even after that you can feel it move and progress throughout your entire body. Only ever use it as a last resort." I continued.
"Woah!" They all said in unison. "Next is the houses or should I say huts." I began to explain to them. "The top one is Hikari's since he's the Chief. The Grovyle builders are next, then every other Grovyle and lastly all of the Treeko huts are at ground level of the Tree." I explained to them. "Where is your hut Hailey?" Max gazed up at me with puppy dog like eyes as he asked me this. "Why don't we go up there?" I asked them with a grin on my face. "Here, let me use my psychic powers on you to carry you all up there." I offered to them. "Thanks!" May said as she touched my shoulder. Everyone except for Ash and Pikachu did this.
"I wanna climb up there!" Ash said. "If you can't keep up I'm using my powers or if you fall." I instructed Ash. "I'll race you!" Ash said. "I do this multiple times a day, what makes you think you're faster then me?" I taunted Ash. "...I'm still going to win!" Ash said as if avoiding the topic.
"Then let's begin."
