Something about the Tunnels made the hair on the back of Emi's neck stand up straight, though she wasn't sure exactly what.
The dim lighting didn't help, that was for sure--she clutched her flashlight tightly as if her life depended on it, not wanting to imagine what might befall her if left alone in the darkness. But there was more to it than that, though she couldn't quite put her finger on it.
But hey, maybe that was what made entering the Tunnels such an adventure in the first place. You can't be courageous if you aren't a little bit scared, after all. And while Emi had heard horror stories about what could be found in the Tunnels, she had also heard that they contain all sorts of treasures, valuable items strewn about for explorers to find. Sure, there was some risk involved, but with the risk came rewards, too. She just had to remember that, to stay calm and think of all the good things that might come from her visit to the Tunnels, that was all.
As Emi tried to tame her fears, she found one of those valuable treasures laying right in front of her.

(Claiming Ice Stone)
Emi was apparently too busy looking at what was ahead to pay attention to where she was going at the moment, as she tripped and fell, the fall knocking her down onto the grimy ground of the Tunnels.
After picking herself up again and wiping off the worst of the ensuing dirt, Emi glanced back to see what, if anything, had caused her fall. Her eyes widened as she took in the sight before her.
The stone--which was almost certainly what had caused her fall--sparkled in her flashlight's beam, and when she picked it up it was abnormally cold to the touch, as if she were holding a snowball in her hand instead of a stone.
Emi knew what this was; she had been keeping an eye out for an Ice Stone ever since acquiring an Alolan Vulpix, though she had expected to have to shell out some money for it. But now, one was staring her in the face, just waiting to be taken.
Emi checked to make sure it hadn't been damaged when she tripped on it, but the stone was in immaculate shape--odd, really, given where it had been found. There was probably a story there, but as far as Emi was concerned, the important part of the story was that she now had the Ice Stone in her possession.
Emi dropped the stone in her bag and whistled a little tune as she carried on, trying to ignore the minor scrapes and bruises caused by her fall, the little aches that didn't seem so little anymore when she moved a certain way.
This trip was already a successful one in Emi's mind... even if she would have to take a long, warm bath when she got back to her apartment.

(Claiming Winter Gem)
Emi wasn't the one to notice the treasure this time around.
She hadn't even realized that Eclipse had left her side until the Ralts came back holding a beautiful icy-blue gem, one that looked as if it had already been polished to maximize its shine.
As Eclipse held up the gem in Emi's direction, Emi asked, "Is that for me?"
The Ralts nodded enthusiastically in response.
"It's beautiful, thank you! What a find!"
Eclipse smiled as Emi took the gem off of her hands. It was cool to the touch--not as much as the Ice Stone she had picked up earlier, but still definitely cooler than she would have expected. Come to think of it, between the Ice Stone and this Winter Gem, it was almost like she was back in the caverns of Aleal again... but at least here, she didn't need a heavy coat.
Emi gently patted Eclipse's head with her free hand, murmuring more words of thanks as she placed the gem in her bag.

(Claiming Shiny Stone)
At first, Emi didn't understand what she was seeing.
There was a dim light in the Tunnels, one that kept moving back and forth... and, steadily, towards her. From a distance, Emi couldn't make out what the source of the light was, though she came up with a number of theories, some more fanciful than the rest--a fellow traveler bearing a flashlight, or an optical illusion, or a fairy coming to take her to another realm, or...
Then the light approached her, and Emi was able to see that its source was none other than Sola, her beloved Deerling--or, to be more exact, the shining stone that Sola kept nudging and kicking in one direction or another.
Emi couldn't help but giggle as she watched her Pokemon play with the bright stone.
Eventually, Sola made her way over to Emi, pushing the stone forward until it was touching one of Emi's shoes and then looking up expectantly. Emi dutifully put the stone in her bag before petting Sola.
"A pretty stone from a pretty Pokemon... thank you, Sola. This will definitely come in handy."

(Claiming Solar Ribbon)
As Emi put away the Shiny Stone, she realized that it was not the only thing her Deerling had brought her. Sola was also carrying a delicate purple ribbon in her mouth, holding on just tight enough to make sure it wouldn't fall to the ground.
"Can I see that, too, please?"
Sola opened her mouth and spit the ribbon onto the ground below before proudly proclaiming, "Ling deerling!"
Emi laughed a little to herself as she picked up the ribbon, which was now noticeably dirty and wet in spots, but still beautiful. Then she saw the sun charm on it and had an idea.
"Hey Sola..."
"Deer?"
As the Deerling stood there, Emi took the purple ribbon and tied it onto Sola's neck, finishing it off with a bow. The purple went splendidly with the Deerling's pink fur to her eyes; Sola, on the other hand, seemed less than impressed.
"Dee..."
"Alright, alright." Emi untied the ribbon and threw it into her bag before turning towards the entrance to the Tunnels. "I suppose that's enough for today then. Let's go home, shall we?"
Emi's Pokemon all cried out in agreement as she stepped forward, ready to examine her prizes more closely back at her apartment.
