Aleron snorted. "Except, y'know, the fact that it's a legendary and therefore insanely strong." She shook her head, amused. "But you're right, that is an extremely amusing thought. And hey, who knows, maybe we'll run into this one too, since we've seen almost every legendary from this area."

"How many does the region have?" Margaret asked, curious. "We've seen four already. That's already on par with Kanto, we don't have any more than that. Zapdos, Moltres, Articuno, and this rumored one in Pokemon Cave."

"We have five. The three legendary dogs, Ho-oh, and Lugia." Aleron shrugged. "I know there are more out there, but I don't know all of them. And I'm not sure where all of them are, naturally."

"That's a lot," Margaret marveled. She was kind of impressed. Then again, Johto was more sprawling than Kanto, and had more area to support more legendaries without them interacting.

"Oh yeah, and supposedly there's one legendary that sort of lives here. It wanders." Aleron shrugged. "Just rumors, though, I think."

"Interesting," Margaret replied. "Well, with our current luck, we'll probably run into it at some point."

"I only hope it's not pissed off too." Aleron sighed and then shrugged. "Oh well. We'll get there eventually, I'm sure. Maybe we'll even discover what's pissing off the legendaries."

"I hope we can figure it out," Margaret said. "Maybe we can find something out in Kanto." She drummed her fingers lightly on Metagross's side. "Nurse Joy said she wants him to stay here overnight, but he should be fine by tomorrow."

"Alright. Well, is there anything you want me to pick up? I saw a cafe down the street, and I was thinking of getting some food, if you wanted me to pick something up."

"I think I'm good for now," Margaret replied. "Thanks, though."

"Okay. Well I'm still gonna get dinner, so is there anything in particular you want me to look for or not get?"

"Just no mushrooms," Margaret replied. "Or onions. Elsewise, I'm not picky."

Aleron nodded. "Got it. I'll be back soon." She left to go find food for them, her Vulpix trotting next to her as if nothing had ever happened.

She returned half an hour later with a bag. She pulled over a table and set the bag down. "So, I got some bread, some salad, and some lasagna. I normally don't get real food, so I'm kinda treating us both with the good stuff." She grinned over at Margaret as she unpacked plastic utensils, plates, and the food. "And I got some food for the pokemon, too, so they can have a treat as well."

"Real food looks wonderful," Margaret replied gratefully. She moved over to help Aleron unpack the food and utensils.

"I thought so," Aleron agreed mildly. She set out two plates for them and started on the salad, so that Margaret could start with the bread or the lasagna.

Margaret immediately grabbed a piece of bread.

"This is quite possibly the best thing I've ever tasted," she mumbled around it.

Aleron laughed quietly. "I'm glad you approve." She went over to get a slice of lasagna, putting her plate down momentarily to get the package of pokemon food out for the two of them to share.

Margaret gave some of the pokemon food to her three waiting pokemon. Espeon was dignified about it, but Natu started hopping up and down, chirping brightly. Metagross rumbled from where he was resting.

Aleron snorted at those three, feeding her two patiently. Vulpix took the pieces daintily, while Jolteon simply munched them down, clearly pleased. Once she was sure her pokemon had enough food, she went over to go eat her own food, sitting down in one of the chairs.

Once her three were taken care of, Margaret went back to working on her own food. It was nice to just relax for a bit.

Aleron sprawled out a bit in the chair, stretching out her legs and slumping in her seat. She rested her plate on her body as she ate, just relaxing and staying there. She was glad she'd decided to get dinner for the both of them.

"You look like you're relaxing already," Margaret teased. Reaching over, she poked Aleron in the side. "Not that I blame you, after earlier."

Aleron grumbled when she was poked, glancing over at Margaret. "Hey, I'm still a teenager. I like relaxing and being able to sit and eat a good meal and not almost get killed once in a while."

"I hear that," Margaret replied. Setting aside her plate, she stretched. "Not getting killed on a daily basis is a wonderful thing."

"Seriously," Aleron muttered. She yawned briefly and kept eating. "This is good stuff."
