Revelation Mountain

Entry #8
Another day, another expedition. It seems things have gotten better now. The village is back to its usual, peaceful self again. With that said, it's business as usual for The Hydroflames, we got a request to help out a Pokemom named Emolga find his lost friend Dunsparce, shouldn't be a problem.
----"Hey Ian! What's taking so long?"
Patience yelled.
Ian turned and immediately placed his journal back into his bag, running over towards the fire fox Pokemon who was standing right next to the Deposit Box.
"All ready?" He asked.
"Yup. Everything seems accounted for, time to hit the road!"
"Pssst! Hey Ian! Patience!"
The two Pokemon turned to the source of the voice and saw Nuzleaf, who was a few meters from them.
"What's up Nuzleaf? Why are you acting all sneaky?" Ian asked.
Nuzleaf quickly shushed the mudfish Pokemon, much to his surprise.
"Let's go back to the house and I'll explain." He said, heading off.
Ian and Patience looked at each other in confusion but decide to follow wily Pokemon.
Guess Emolga is going to have to wait then.
----"Real sorry about interrupting your business. But this has been itching me for quite awhile now." Nuzleaf explained, sitting down at the table with Ian and Patience.
"So what's this about Nuzleaf?" Patience asked.
Nuzleaf cleared his throat before explaining his reason.
"You're familiar with Revelation Mountain right?"
Patience nodded. "It's known as a sacred mountain among the villagers. Though I'm not sure why though."
This was the first time Ian had heard of this. Which left him confused.
"Revelation Mountain? What's that?" He asked.
"Oh yeah, I forgot that you're not from here, sorry about that." Nuzleaf said. "Just a few kilometers away from Serene Village, there is a mountain that towers over the village. That mountain is called Revelation Mountain. While the history of whether anyone ever ventured to the peak of the mountain, but ever since then it is considered a law to never go to Revelation Mountain."
"So what's your point?" Ian asked.
"That's what's bugging me." Nuzleaf said. "I'm really curious as to WHY this is so. Why Revelation Mountain is restricted to outsiders and villagers alike."
Ian felt like he knew where this was going, and so did Patience.
"That's why I want to climb Revelation Mountain, to see what's up there."
The room went silent for a good few minutes before Ian decided to give his opinion.
"No offense Nuzleaf, but that has got to be the stupidest idea I've ever heard."
"I have to agree." Patience said. "Why would you want to risk yourself just to climb Revelation Mountain?"
"Well... I uh-" Nuzleaf was at a lost of words, sweat dripping of his head. Just then, his expression changed, like he suddenly remembered something. "Ah! I remember now! I've heard of this story about how a human once came down from Revelation Mountain a long time ago, I think that maybe climbing up Revelation Mountain could probably explain Ian's reason of coming here!"
Ian wasn't sure if he had heard him right, but he heard him mention "human". Patience was just a surprised.
"What?!" Ian and Patience both said. "B-but I've never heard of such a story before..." Patience said.
"It's a very uncommon story told to children. Ask Carracosta, I'm sure he knows about it." Nuzleaf replied.
Patience just remained silent, not sure what else to say. Ian too, was pretty surprised at the sudden revelation, was it really true? There were more humans who came to this world? Could whatever that was on top Revelation Mountain possibly explain why he had come to this world? There's only one way to find out.
"Fine, I'll go." He said.
"Are you serious Ian?! Do you realize that we can into a world of trouble for this?! And after what happened-" She stopped herself from continuing, realizing that Nuzleaf does not know about it.
"After what happened?" Nuzleaf asked.
"Oh, it's nothing, just something when we were out exploring." Ian lied.
The wily Pokemon looked at Ian in suspicion, but ultimately decided not to press further and just shrug it off.
"If whatever that's up on that mountain could possibly tell me the reason why I'm here or who I was as a human, I'm willing to take that chance." Ian said
Patience simply sighed at the mudfish Pokemon's sudden out of character foolishness, but she could somewhat understand. If she was a human turned Pokemon with no memories of who she is, she would jump at the first mention of a possible link to it.
"Fine." She said. "I'll go as well..."
"Great!" Nuzleaf said. "I'll meet you two at the gates of the village in an hour. There is something I need to take care first before we go."
The wily Pokemon got up and left the house, leaving the two Pokemon to themselves, the air around them suddenly felt tense, when Ian finally broke the silence.
"You don't have to go if you don't want to." Ian said. "This is something I can handle my-"
"No, I'm coming with you." Patience said. "After what you done for me back at the Ancient Barrow. I feel like I owe you one, for standing by my side. It's only appropriate if I returned the gesture."
Ian looked at the fire fox Pokemon in surprise, chuckling shortly afterwards.
"Alright then, let's just hope Emolga is a patient Pokemon and Dunsparce doesn't get himself into an even bigger situation."
