Arcanine looked up from his digging and saw charmelien and what he was doing. He quickly went over and started to help push at the door.

Charmeleon corrected him. we want to do it lightly. he told him. opening it slow enough that if there are any guards, we can surprise them. I just need it open a crack.

Arcanine nodded them smiled what if we burn the hinges off so that it is easyer to push over he said and began to lightly burn the hinges.

good. Charmeleon could now see a sliver of light. He peeked out. two guards were there. Be careful, there is a guard in front of the hinges. he warned to Arcanine.

Arcanine smiled I have a idea he then leanded down closed to the bottome of the door where there was a crack inbetween the door and the floor. THen used flamethrower to set there feet on fire and make then run off.

That will work for awhile, until they come back with inforcements. The door could be pushed open now. "Char!" Charmeleon called to Thorn and Evan.

Evan looked over and smiled "great job guys." he siad happly

Arcanine smiled and stuck his head out to see if there was anyone comeing back.

Thorn saw no one around. "We have to move quickly. Everyone on Arcanine! We have to get to the next town to tell the police!"

Evan nodded and jumped onto Arcanine. "come on, we better hurry" he said as he returned all of his pokemon into there pokeballs. Then held out a hand to help thorn up.

Thorn took his hand and got on Arcanine. "Charmeleon, make sure it looks like we're still in there." She told them. He closed the door and hopped on. "Lets get going!"

Evan smiled and nodded "okay" he said and arcanine shot out of there, running as fast as he can.

A few of the villagers saw them leave. A small girl, who hadn't been taken over by the Spiritomb, said under her breath, "help us young trainers, help!"

When even heard this he nodded and continued to urge arcanine on. They would come back later, but fires they had to get out of here.

Thorn saw a mountain ahead. "Go for that mountain!" She said. "We can camp up there."

Evan nodded and arcanine ran towards the mountain as fast as it could

Soon the village was far in the distance. Thorn saw a bunch of caves on the mountain. "Go for one of those!" she said.

Arcanine nodded and raced inside, going as deep as he could so that the villagers wouldn't find them

Thorn looked around. It was a nice cave, they should be able to light a fire. She just hoped the villagers wouldn't find them. Charmeleon encouragingly put a paw on her shoulder. She smiled.

Evan looked at thorn and siad "we will have to go back soon and help them." he then slid off of arcanine so that he could start a fire.

"yeah. When we get to the next town, we'll notify the police." She slid off of arcanine. "Do you need any help?" she asked, watching him.

Evan shook his head "no I got it." he said and he finaly got a flame. "so what do you think we can do?"

"We're going to the next town." Thorn said. "Or do you mean after that. Remember, we're still wanted criminals."

"I mean after that and besides the fact that we are criminals. I mean it is not like we are going to get cought any time soon." he said as he looked at her from across the fire.

"I know, but we really look the same as before...." she trailed off. "I don't know. I've dragged you to all of these places, we should do what you wanna do."

Even smirked "how aobut if we head to the mountains." he said happly
