"Where'd it come from?" Ash asked.
"That will remain a mystery, I suppose." he said.
"And yeah, he was wrecking havoc in one of the biomes." he told her.
"But he's imprinted himself on Lily here." he said further.
"Oh yeah, I need to try and contact Anna and Andrew." he then muttered.
"Let them know she's here, and about this snake." he continued.
"Oh, and get Emelie here." he then told Cass.
"I think Lily's injured."

"I'll be fine." Lily countered as Cass nodded.
"Emelie's likely already on her way." She commented. "And I'll call Andr---" She was cut off by the phone ringing.
"Hello? Yes?" Was silent for a few seconds.
"Of course. I will." She then said before pausing and hanging up.
"Aaaaaaaaaaaand that was Emelie. She said to send Lily down to her."
"........." Ash was silent as he heard that.
"Oooookay." he said.
"Guess we're going to the medical wing." he told Lily.
"Come on." he sighed, before looking at Cass,
"And yeah, guess Lily has a pet now. Or a familiar. Whatever." he told her.
"You know what happens if you forcibly separate a Regal Boa with the one its imprinted on."
"Oooookay." he said.
"Guess we're going to the medical wing." he told Lily.
"Come on." he sighed, before looking at Cass,
"And yeah, guess Lily has a pet now. Or a familiar. Whatever." he told her.
"You know what happens if you forcibly separate a Regal Boa with the one its imprinted on."
Cass just sighed.
"That I do." She agreed with a nod.
"You take Lily down. I'll deal with Anna and Andrew." She then told him simply.
"All right." Ash replied.
He and Lily then left the office, and he sighed.
"Guess Emelie's busy down there." he said.
"And what'd I tell you?" he asked.
"She knows EVERYTHING." he told her.
"There are NO secrets from her."
He and Lily then left the office, and he sighed.
"Guess Emelie's busy down there." he said.
"And what'd I tell you?" he asked.
"She knows EVERYTHING." he told her.
"There are NO secrets from her."
"Certainly seems that way." Lily agreed with a light laugh.

By the time that Lily was fully patched up, which really hadn't taken long at all, Cass had sent down a message to say that Ash was to take her to where her parents and brother were. Emelie just laughed, of course, and had given ASh the exact location of the others.
The message had also stated that they were aware of the snake, and that it may get in the way of their trip, but they had an idea for it.
".....well, all right, then." Ash responded.
"Guess it's time for us to be going, Lily." he said to the girl.
"If you want, you can grab one more smoothie to go, before we head to the teleport pads." he offered.
Lily just nodded and left, which was when Ash sighed.
"...it never gets easier..." he muttered, though Emelie could hear him.
"It always pains me a little inside when I do it." he added.
"Guess it's time for us to be going, Lily." he said to the girl.

Lily just nodded and left, which was when Ash sighed.
"...it never gets easier..." he muttered, though Emelie could hear him.
"It always pains me a little inside when I do it." he added.
"I'm heading to grab." Lily said with a nod before heading off. After she was gone, Emelie approached.
"I know it doesn't." Said, her voice soft.
"But it's something that has to happen, otherwise CCass would seriously suffer, and you along with her."
"I know." Ash responded.
"And Cass can never know of any of this." he went on.
"Nobody can." he said.
"If Cass EVER found out anything about what I do... I don't know what would happen." he added with a small sigh.
He then looked at Emelie, and smiled a little.
"Thanks for letting me get that out there."
"And Cass can never know of any of this." he went on.
"Nobody can." he said.
"If Cass EVER found out anything about what I do... I don't know what would happen." he added with a small sigh.
He then looked at Emelie, and smiled a little.
"Thanks for letting me get that out there."
Emelie just laughed lightly.
"I know." She told him.
"Don't worry, I know to keep this quiet." She assured him with a soft smile.
"Your secret is safe with me." She then paused and shrugged.
"I'm someone that you can always talk to, you know that. So it's not a problem to let you get what is on your mind out. There is no need to thank me for listening."
Ash just nodded.
"Yeah, thanks." he replied.
"And yeah, seems Lily witnessed what I do." he commented.
"Reeeeeeally didn't see that coming." he admitted, crossing his arms.
"Though, in some way, I'm relieved." he said further.
"Not sure why, to be honest." he added.
"Yeah, thanks." he replied.
"And yeah, seems Lily witnessed what I do." he commented.
"Reeeeeeally didn't see that coming." he admitted, crossing his arms.
"Though, in some way, I'm relieved." he said further.
"Not sure why, to be honest." he added.
'It's probably because you have someone you can talk to if you need to." Emelie commented honestly.
"It's something I can only speculate though." She added.
"I don't know everything, just close to that." She added with a smile.
Ash just smirked.
"Really seems like you do at times." he said.
"Anyway, I should go." he told her.
"Anna doesn't like to be kept waiting." he sighed.
"And we should probably get Lily reunited with her ASAP."
"Really seems like you do at times." he said.
"Anyway, I should go." he told her.
"Anna doesn't like to be kept waiting." he sighed.
"And we should probably get Lily reunited with her ASAP."
"True." Emelie agreed.
"So get going." She then said.
"As you said, Anna shouldn't be kept waiting."
"Thanks, Emelie." Ash said again.
"I'm sure I'll be seeing you soon." he told her.
With that, they parted ways, and Ash made his way to where Lily was, back in the training area.
When he got there, he noticed people were clearly uneasy about the snake, but he sighed.
"It's fine, people!" he announced.
"Continue as usual! The snake is harmless as long as you don't threaten Lily!" he told them.
People then calmed down considerably, as Ash made his way to Lily.
"Heh. It's funny how easily rattled people are." he told her with a chuckle.
"I'm sure I'll be seeing you soon." he told her.

Lily just laughed.
"Yup." she agreed.
"NOw let's head to where my folks are." She added after a few seconds. "Because I really do wanna enjoy the trip with them."
"Come on, then." Ash told her.
"Grab your drink and let's go to the teleport room." he said.
Meanwhile, Andrew, Anna, and Luke were sitting on some large flat rocks in a small meadow.
"So she'll be here any minute?' Luke asked Anna.
"As well as Mister Ash?"
"Grab your drink and let's go to the teleport room." he said.
Meanwhile, Andrew, Anna, and Luke were sitting on some large flat rocks in a small meadow.
"So she'll be here any minute?' Luke asked Anna.
"As well as Mister Ash?"
Anna nodded.
"And she's bringing a snake." She stated.
"So Luke, I need you to grow a very illegal flower." She then told her son.
"The Hidden Lilies." She then said. "Because that snake will need to eat one to not be seen, and we need to keep a supply for awhile, so that we can keep it hidden while in Europe."
Luke was silent as he heard that.
"Hidden Lilies?" he asked.
"Oh yeah, I know those." he said.
"I think I know how to grow them, too." he told her.
"You THINK?" Andrew asked.
"Well... I never tried." Luke responded.
"But I read up on them, and it seemed... well... simple...?... enough? I don't know." he sighed.
"Hidden Lilies?" he asked.
"Oh yeah, I know those." he said.
"I think I know how to grow them, too." he told her.

"There is no shame in deterrence. Having a weapon is very different from actually using it." - Ghandi
Anna nodded.
"They are rather simple, yeah." She commented.
"But there are some things that have to be very specific. So consider this a bit of a test for your abilities." She then said.
