To a secluded place

The walk that followed was relatively quick by Ash's standard, eventually leading into that of a set of secluded bushes. By no means the sort of place the trainer was expecting to go, it would do nicely for whatever Iris wanted him to do.

"Here we are." Iris announced and Ash shot her a look. Opening his mouth, he met his former companion's gaze. Getting a chuckle, his attention shifted back to the bushes.

There, he could just make out a duffel bag stuffed within. A part of him wondered if Iris had been keeping this bag here or had recently placed here for this exact situation. Didn't really matter.

Making his way over, Ash slowly opened the bag.
