You... Hey, where are you going?
"Springblok!"
Before anyone can do anything, you shout at Springblok and jump at him! Your <span class="mu-r">baseball cap</span> comes off because your hair is waving around so much!
<span class="mu-s"><span class="mu-g">
Cutémon attacks before Springblok was ready!
Cutémon attacks with Hair Pin!
Can't block tangle attacks!
</span></span>
Springblok tries to take a step back but your hair wraps around his legs and he falls backward and lands on the floor! Springblok struggles but he can't move, no matter how hard he tries! Suddenly you lean back and open your mouth and Springblok sees your <span class="mu-r">sharp teeth</span>!
"You hurt Ward!"
"No! I helped him!"
You give Springblok an angry look!
"Springblok!"
Springblok is shaking his head! "It's the truth! Professor Ginger and I both thought he was dead. All her equipment said he was dead. But somehow he managed to claw his way back. When I saw he had started passively accumulating energy again, I hid him away far away from here. I didn't know if he would..." Springblok looks away and then looks at you. "I won't fight if you want to kill me."
What? Springblok thinks you want to kill him? You don't want to do that at all!
Suddenly <span class="mu-r">your hair</span> relaxes and releases Springblok and you throw your arms around his neck and close your eyes and hug him!
"Oh, Springblok!"
What? Something is wrapping around your shoulders? It feels like Springblok is hugging you back with his long ears! You look up at Springblok!
"Thank you!"
When you let go of Springblok and stand up you feel a lot better! Springblok stands up and looks at your baseball cap on the floor and when you pick it up you see Joe standing next to you! Joe looks at Springblok and asks "That Vitium... why would Professor Ginger want to have anything to do with that?"
Springblok is looking at you! "Who is this human boy?"
You glance at Joe and smile at Springblok!
"This is Joe!"
Springblok looks at Joe and asks "Joe Apple from Patina?"
Joe is nodding his head!
"I've read your letters." Springblok looks away and says "A Vitium is not like any of the other alien-type mons. It makes some things possible that would not otherwise be so. After Professor Ginger grafted the Vitium to herself, she began altering herself in other ways. The battle between her and the Psykid... Ward... it almost destroyed this tower."
Joe is shaking his head! "What I mean is, why would Professor Ginger want to do that in the first place? I've read both her books and they're all about how to train mons by teaching them."
Springblok looks back at Joe. "Professor Ginger tells her colleagues she's only trying to improve her instruction-based methods, but that's just an act. I sometimes think she considers me a failure."
What? Springblok is saying Professor Ginger doesn't think Springblok is smart enough, even though Springblok can say so many words at the same time?
