Yoshi had fallen silent the longer their trek into the eerie swampland took. His eyes were on a constant swivel in attempt to stay alert for any oncoming dangers, but all he was greeted by was the swamp's uninviting scenery and the cold rain that hit his snout before sliding down his smooth skin. It was an unsettling feeling, but it wasn't one he was entirely unfamiliar with. Similar sensations often rose up whenever he found himself near one of Bowser's fortresses or the poisonous swamps around the Mushroom Kingdom. It was far from a comforting feeling, but he would make do.

As the voices began to invade his own mind, he remained rather unfazed. Maybe he was to naive to care about them or maybe unfamiliar voices merely had little effect. Either way he remained steadfast in his heart. The same couldn't be said for his companions though. His eyes darted towards Mog and Shadow first, noticing how both seemed to react quickly to the voices and cried out their own concerns. While he wanted to encourage them, he found himself lacking much of a voice in the moment. No matter how desperately he wanted to yell out, nothing came.

That was concerning in itself, but Yoshi remained calm as his head turned towards Falcon. Unlike the others, he wasn't speaking out, but from his body language alone the dino could tell something wasn't right. The last thing they needed was him falling into some kind of despair, especially since he had taken the role of their leader. If he went down because of some voices, what kind of example would that set for the rest of them? It would only invite the dread in. That was the worse case scenario and one Yoshi wished to avoid if even possible. But how was he supposed to snap the Captain out of his daze without a voice?

His nostrils flared in irritation at the thought and he briefly let himself ponder possibilities before one finally settled in the forefront of his mind. Without a second thought, he trudged through the thick swamp and rammed all his weight up against Falcon in attempt to draw him back into reality with no real damage done. It was a hopeful thought, but it was all he could currently do.

Through some quick words and a drawn diagram, Pichu understood the general gist of what Layton wanted him to do. So with a nod of affirmation, the little Pokémon mon hurriedly bit onto the corner of the tarp as he scaled up Layton’s arm, dragging the cloth along as he then hopped onto the catapult itself. With Pichu’s intrinsic climbing skills it didn’t take any time at all for him to skillfully scale up the long beam and reach the top. From his viewpoint Pichu spore a brief glance at the ongoing battle, managing to find some comfort in the Gao’s diminishing numbers thanks to Byleth’s, Robin’s, and Chrom’s efforts. But he’d tear his eyes away from the sight and spit out the tarp from his mouth as he quickly got to work tying the tarp into a sail.

His job complete, Pichu hopped down from the catapult and landed atop Layton’s hat, steadying himself before then finally jumping down onto a crate nearby. Chrom, Robin, and Sora joined the two not long after as everyone lent an ear to the professor. So, while he and the fire emblem representatives continued the fight against the Gao, Layton intended for the youngest members of the group to flee using the catapult, leaving the adults to deal with the rest of the battle on their own.

“Pi?” Pichu stole another glance back towards the battle before looking back towards Layton, his face scrunched up with an odd mixture of concern and offense. He didn’t doubt the abilities of his fellow fighters, heck Byleth was doing quite the number on the army all by himself! But still, Pichu couldn’t help but be a little concerned. And, maybe, just maybe, he wasn’t entirely a fan of how Layton grouped them as if they were just a bunch dumb kids when they were anything but!…well, excluding Luke. However, with Sora expressing his approval (albeit with some hesitance) Pichu gave a small huff but nodded in agreement.

“Pichu!”

In that case, they should go grab Luke, shouldn’t they? If he remembered right Layton had shooed the kid off to go hide inside the castle, hopefully he was still there. Hopping down from the crate, Pichu looked up at the others before tilting his head in the direction of the castle’s entrance.

“Pi!”

Then, not waiting to see if they understood what he meant, Pichu scampered off towards the abandoned palace, off to go collect the boy. Thankfully, with the castle located behind the battle and its general proximity to the catapult, Pichu had no trouble scurrying over towards the entrance, slipping through the massive doors and entering inside.

The moment he stepped inside, the sounds of the battle were muffled to nothing but a murmur as the fortified walls, while visibly deteriorated with age, still served their purpose remarkably well. Yet Pichu little comfort in this fact, as with the castle halls bathed in darkness, the place was certainly rather eerie. Pichu however had no time to be a scaredy torracat, and so he marched further inside on the lookout for the blue hatted boy. Paws cupped around his mouth, Pichu called out the boy’s name.

“Pichuuuu!”
