Arashi began to slow down from his running, but soon tripped and fell face first into the mud. The rain had stopped now, so he must have gotten away from the weather pokemon which didn't bother him. He looked back to see what he had tripped on to see some kind of stone. He got up and walked over to it, clearing away some of the mud that had started to cover it up. He bent down and picked it up with his mouth and set it down so he could get a better look at it. It was like nothing he had ever seen before. It was oval shaped, and very smooth. Even though it was half covered in mud it was still very shiny, and it was an array of different colours. He was mesmerized by it.
He picked the stone up again, wanting to take it with him and started to run again, looking for something he could use to clean off the rest of the mud. He soon found a pond that was still clean and not contaminated and started to dip the stone in it and watch as the mud started to slip off it. once it was cleaned he set it down again and watched it shine in the sunlight. He couldn't help but smile, as it was rare to find something like this beautiful in a world that no longer held any at all. He lay down and held the stone close to him so no one could try and take it away from him. He was tired from his run and needed to catch his breath. But also kept himself alert in case some infected tried to make a jump on him.
