Since there isnt much room for Sneasel Ingo to get his “physical therapy” Emmet has started taking him out to places it would be safe for Ingo to get his body back on track.
I put it in quotes because its nothing too serious just mostly walking and mostly stretches. When i busted my elbow i had tons of stretches they wanted me to do so i figure they would want the same for Ingo since he was stuck on bed rest for a couple of days plus his injuries.
This could lead two ways. I will put both down here if my cat stops stepping on my face blocking me from my phone.
First it leads to Emmet and Ingo getting regular nightly or early morning walks. They try to pick a time without so many people out and about. Idk the area they are from very well but in this au a forrest has been mentioned quite a lot so im gonna say they go there. Its some good bonding time for them. Also very relaxing for Emmet who in the end got the most “healing” from it out of the two. Emmet mostly rants to Ingo about his life with Ingo missing. These rants really help Emmet believe this is actually Ingo. Seeing how the sneasel responds. The way they are reacting isnt quote pokemon like and truely does remind him of his brother. These walks also help Emmet actually see how traumatised Ingo is at this point. The whole time Ingo is clearly on edge. Tense at any noise. It hurts Emmet to see but it really drives home his resolve to help his brother. He does anything to make these walks more enjoyable for Ingo. Even after Ingos fully recovered they keep the walks.
Second idea is that these trips out are how the poacher’s find Ingo again. They get spotted and maybe a fight breaks out and for a short while Ingo gets separated from Emmet. Oooo i have it now here old my beer lord let me be strong my arm is falling asleep
So the poachers figured out Emmet is taking Ingo out at night and get their schedule. They have to strick fast before the Sneasel is fully healed so maybe their 3rd night out they get attacked. Emmet is battling to protect Ingo but theres like 5 poachers. Seeing a lost cause Emmet quickly makes a distraction and books it with Ingo in his arms. They hear yelling. Its getting closer but Emmet doesnt stop running. Maybe he stashes Ingo in a tree. Telling him to wait for him to come back and to stay hidden. Which Ingo doesnt want to leave his brother but he also really doesnt want another trip with poachers. Hiding in a hollow of a tree he is having a lil panic while Emmet leads them away. He cant see anything without risking being seen himself. So he just sits there. In this much to small hollow. In the dark. Listening, waiting for one of them to find him and take him away again. Hes so afraid whos going to find him he starts trying to shut the outside world out. When Emmet comes back after besting the poschers ( the fight is a lot easier when he doesnt have the stress of his brither being taken) he doesnt like what he sees. An unresponsive and trembling Ingo. Curled in on himself with his paws covering his ears. He doesnt respond at all to Emmets soft whisper calling his name. He doesnt move till Emmet actually touches him. He strikes out completely and utterly terrified. Luckly he just scratched Emmets glove and not actually his hand. The whole walk back home is in silence. Ingo curled up in Emmets arms trembling and Emmet on edge listening for anyone else.
