Viridian Forest 

<   Mallow's POV   >

Oh man, oh man! I screwed up big time now!

How could I let this happen right in front of my nose!? Not just Brock found out about the Ultra Beasts way before it was needed, but I'm sure now that my existence and the Ultra Beasts will be hot topic if I don't stop this before it gets worse!

*Panting*

I'm getting tired... My body its not built for this level of activity!

But that doesn't mean I can let this monster roam freely like nothing and cause chaos, more because I have a hunch that Ash is nearby, since I can tell from the weird sensation I'm feeling that something it's going wrong...

I don't know, but I have a gut feeling that it is because I let this happen!

But enough of that! I must keep eye on the Xurkitree! With the injuries it received during the battle it's clear that it won't last much and that because I can tell it's having a hard time to escape... But what will I do once I catch up? I basically used a Z-move just moments ago and Tsareena has now a toll of tiredness on herself.

We weren't exactly built to be fighters unlike Kiawe or Lana, yet I know that I cannot let this go like this.

...

But now that I think about it, aren't I reaching a certain point in time? Because if I remember correctly, this is Viridian Forest, so Ash mustn't be far... Oh no, if that's true then...

The Ultra beast must be gathering itself with its companion!

Then it means I can get the two at the same spot!... But [Shivers] Now I'm scared.

I barely got alive against one of them, will I do well against two of them like this?

[Shakes her head] Stop thinking like this Mallow! You must concentrate or Ash will be in big trouble!

I must be quick... now or never!!

<   End Mallow's POV   >

After a long persecution, Mallow managed to catch up with the Xurkitree at a secluded forest patch that was quite well hidden from the rest of the forest, making it a perfect spot for hiding two unknown creatures to this day for the kantonian, detail that allowed Xurkitree and its partner to remain hidden...

But not anymore. An intruder, more specifically, one of their enemies came to their hideout, and it was time to strike back.

So as a form of Last Stand, Xurkitree stopped suddenly on its tracks, surprising Mallow as she was almost stroke by a Thunder Punch that would definitely kill her if she didn't had time to dodge, so as a work of reflex (mainly obtained thanks to her adventures with Ash) Mallow managed to dodge the attack and hence fort back away from the Ultra Beast, which was now at a guarding position, ready to attack her... Challenging her to a battle.
