Helloooooo, not Republic City!

[Have a very close-up shot of Bolin's oh-so pretty eyes.]

So, hey. Kidnapped huh. [Kidnapped again, more like it. He leans back and strokes his lack of beard, allowing the rest of his face to be seen. There's a Sentret flopped over his shoulder like a pancake.]

This is a lot better than most kidnappings I've been to. I even get a free--uh, I'm not sure what this is. [He checks out that Sentret. It's a little familiar to him but not quite enough. Like a squished fire ferret.] Yeah, I don't know. But he is adorable! Don't tell Pabu I said that.

[The Sentret makes some little squeaky noises from his shoulder.]

Ahh, guys! It's assaulting me with cuteness! Do you think I should name him?

Then you're fresh out of luck, pal. The next city's a three-day walk from there.

[rocking_it]

Don't they sell food?!

[worktodo]

Look around. You see any stores?

[rocking_it]

But what do they eat then?

[worktodo]

My best guess? Dumb kids who ask too many questions.

[rocking_it]

... you're not a very nice man.

[worktodo]

You noticed! It's a miracle.

[rocking_it]

What's the next closest town, then? [Since he doesn't really expect him to answer, he's going through his manual to find the map.]

[worktodo]

Hop on the only road out of town and walk until you run into it.

It's called Cherrygrove.

[rocking_it]

[He's gonna walk around a bit more.]

Wow, this place is seriously small. Though I guess at least it has a road ...

[worktodo]

And you've got nothing ahead of you except three days of dark forest before you hit something remotely close to resembling civilization again.

[rocking_it]

Ugh. I don't know how to survive in the forest. I can survive on the streets, but the forest?

Well, I guess I'll have to make do. What about feeding this little guy, though? Maybe he'll eat leaves ...

[worktodo]

Should've thought of that before you ate everything in your pack, huh?

There are berries he can eat. They grow wild on bushes.

[rocking_it]

Hey, I can't think on an empty stomach!

[Bolin keeps looking through his manual until he finds that part.] Okay, I can do that. He can probably help me find them.

[worktodo]

From what I've seen, you don't do so hot on a full one, either.

Don't eat them yourself.

[rocking_it]

What, are they poisonous to people?

[worktodo]

Amazing, that's two things you've gotten right now.

[rocking_it]

That's weird. How about leaves and bark and things? Is there anything I can eat that's not from a store?

[worktodo]

You could always go raid Mom's fridge.

[rocking_it]

Maybe she'd give me more food if I asked nicely.

[worktodo]

Hope springs eternal.
