Trevor Smithee

Everyone came, and then left as soon as the vulpix ran away, well, everyone but Trevor's teammates, who suggested they take this time to practice their moves again. "Yeah... heh, give them a pleasant surprise for once, right?" Trevor commented as he waddled slowly back to the trick room to try to practice. His wing was still really bugging him, though, and it kind of bugged Trevor that he couldn't fly, at the moment, as well. Once he was back in the room, the first thing he tried was a leech life on a nearby object, probably just a chair, or something, and he ended up pulling his wing, again, somehow. "OW! Dang wing, stop hurting, I'm trying to make my teammates not worry about me, dang it," Trevor said, grumbling, before he tried supersonic, again, and, as far as he could tell, he pulled it off very well... and then he tried screech, which went pretty much the same way... in fact, the moves were so similar in execution, Trevor accidentally used supersonic, again, and despite his failure, he decided to just move on to tackle. That was a huge mistake, as he slammed his already injured wing against a wall, producing a sharp pain in it, and a sickening crack for anyone else in the room. Trevor just barely managed to not faint from the pain, and that's when he found out he couldn't move his wing, at all... that's... probably not a good sign of health.

Ember

The phanpy, whose name Ember didn't take the time to remember, caught up with him, and started berating him for not staying near her, and Eira, his underling, caught up pretty quickly, and answered yes to Ember's... poorly worded question, prompting him to follow her for once in his life, which ensured that he didn't use quick attack to just speed out in front of anyone. I was so close... the horse was right there, and yet, I couldn't attack it because it was in the guild... I can't believe my horrible luck, and knowing my luck, he's already on his way to the air continent, or something. Ember thought as he just followed behind his underling, and, oddly enough, he found himself asking her "So, what are your parents like?" which he followed up with "My parent's aren't all that great... first, there's my mom, who constantly watches over what I do, and she's the one who always grounds me... and then there's my dad, some umbreon who seems to think this whole trap-making thing is just a phase... heheh... usually, if I talk to Dad, first, he'll get Mom to not ground me, so I kind of like him, better," Ember rambled on about his parents for a while, but he still seemed to actually listen to what Eira said along the way, which was odd, considering the fact that up until then, he only really cared about himself.

---

While they headed to the Center Plaza, Hanna was keeping a close eye on the kids, Ember in particular. Even though the guy that attacked them was probably long gone by then, she still didn't want him wandering off on his own. Thankfully for her, though, that didn't happen. Considering how he was acting back at the guild, he was surprisingly well-behaved now. They made it all the way to the Center Plaza without having to chase him. Once they arrived, Hanna began looking around at the nearby houses. "So, Eira, your house is one o' these ones here, right?" She asked. She didn't know of any Aurorus living in this part of town. She'd been living in Medburn for several years now, so she found it strange that she hadn't seen Eira's parents yet.

---

He couldn't help but chuckle at Drip's confession of what she thinks the Vulpix is. "Come on Drip, you're thinking too badly of the kid. Like I said, let's wait a bit." Rick then gave Drip a pat on her back to reassure that having those two in a team might not be so bad. Besides, even if two Pokemon hated each other, working together is a must in a team. Well, it's not like anyone would actually make a team with someone they don't like. So it's safe to think that the two get along at the very least. "But if it makes you feel better, I'll keep an eye on them. Hey, boss might place them under my care you know~" He pointed out with a jovial tone. He missed having someone under his wing.

Once they entered, he grinned up at Kelly. "Nothing odd about that!" And once more, Rick himself doesn't seem to mind his sprained leg. It doesn't even seem to bother him anymore. It's not like it hadn't happened before after all. It would be a wonder if you didn't see at least one bruise on his body or a limp after more than a month has passed since the last injury. He then laughed once more. "She does, doesn't she? I hope so, we've known each other for quite a while now." He commented to Drip's own passing comment. He wasn't born and raised here, but he has spent many years here already. It was a wonderful surprise to settle down somewhere, when he was raised as a nomad.

"Iapappa Sandwich sounds good right about now." Rick replied. He then rubbed the back of his head as he looked at Drip. "I... didn't bring any money with me..." He said, embarrassed. He wasn't expecting to go to a shop so he didn't bring anything with him. He didn't even have his bag. Oh Arceus, this was embarrassing. He looked at Drip with a pleading expression.

Leading the group towards and eventually through the plaza, Eira listened astutely to Ember's speech about her parents. Turning her head to her new fiery companion, she'd reply. "Well... at least you have parents. I was raised up by Miss Chansey in Treasure Town, until she found a home for me here in Medburn." She'd turn back to the paths, taking one off the southern edge of the plaza. "D-don't get me wrong, the one who took me in is sweet and caring, but... I've still always wondered what it might be like to have a real family." She'd admit, eventually coming to a stop in front of a small but well kept house.

"Well, this is it." She'd state, walking forward and slowly bumping the door open. "I'm home, and I've got some people for you to meet." She'd call out, as a few moments later an aged Froslass would appear from around the corner. "Ah, I was worried after that tremor. I'm glad you're safe." She'd say as her gaze set upon the others. "And company? Had I known I would have made something for you. Come in, please." She'd motion for them to come in.

After nodding to Celina and following Trevor back into the Training Room, he tried to relax. It seemed Trevor was a bit of a natural, shooting off attacks and abilities left and right. Celina herself had experienced some success, managing to use several moves as well. Lachlan was the only one now who had yet to use any kind of move. He'd been trying so hard, maybe too hard. Maybe that had been what was keeping him from pulling it off.

He took a deep breath, and concentrated. I tried to think about what abilities he could actually have. Ralts, Psychic Type. Maybe something like Confusion. Looking over at a few small boxes off to the side, he looked over at them and, as Psychic abilities normally could, tried to lift them with his mind. And, surprisingly, one of them lifted off in a soft blue glow. Setting it down gently, he smiled. "Got it!" He'd pronounce proudly, looking over to Trevor.

His smile quickly faded as he saw his limp wing. Not even thinking about it, he suddenly just appeared at his side, having used Teleport by accident in a rush to get to him. "Trevor, your wing does not look good at all. We gotta get that looked at, like, now. Don't you think, Celina?" He'd ask, turning to the Togepi.

[Medburn Town - Kelly's Cafe]

The Monferno's pleading gaze would not gain him any ground, unfortunately. "Sorry, Rick. Not today. I've been having no luck with money, lately. I've just got enough for this right now." She'd reply, the Kangaskhan chuckling. "You're fine, you two. I know how hard it is out there. I can just put it on a tab, you can pay it off when you can. And before you say anything, it's no trouble at all." She'd give a smile as she headed towards the back.

Breathing a sigh of relief after being saved from an awkward situation, she'd turn to the Fire Type. "Maybe if you stop getting yourself sent to the clinic every other mission and you'd make a decent role model." She'd tease, her gaze turning serious again. "But if you would, if they do end up making their own team with the guild, do keep an eye on them. That Vulpix, now that I think about it, has quite the reputation around here." She'd explain.

Celina kept training in the room for a while, trying to get used to her moves. As she used metronome, she used 3 moves one after the other. The first one was moonblast, which did make her confused a bit at this. She looked at the attack.

“I… I don’t recognize that one. What was that move? ” she said as she looked at it hit a wall… She shook her head and then used the move again, this time using Vice Grip and actually breaking some stone a bit. She smile.

“ Ok that one I recognize… Vice Grip… uhmm…” she said, before using one last attack, actually using Freeze Shock. She gathered energy, looking confused a bit right now on the energy she felt in her. Was it Hyper beam or something else she wondered? She then let go of that energy, sending a large chunk of electrified ice right at some larger stones. The force was so great that she was sent backwards a bit from this and the stones ended up shattering in dust. She stared at it for a while, jaw drop at the force. Electricity and lightning? Who the heck could use that! She stared and then looked at Lachlan and Trevor, smiling.

“ You… you saw that!? Whoa.. I.. I can’t believe I just did that!” she then said, smiling and proud of herself, before seeing Lachlan actually teleport to Trevor. She smiled softly then heard what he said.
“Y.. ya. It might be a good idea to do that. Ouf… that was a lot of excitement. Apologies.” She then said.

It seemed like everyone was doing a good job of using their moves, even Lachlan, who was having trouble with doing that, earlier, at least, until everyone started worrying about Trevor, and just stopped. They all wanted him to get himself healed up, and he wanted to tell them no, but... they were right. If anything, getting out of here, and healing that wing would get them to stop worrying about Trevor, if only for a bit. "Y-yeah... anyone know where the hospital is? They DO have hospitals in this world, right?" Trevor asked his teammates, as if they'd actually know. He then awkwardly walked away from the room, and tried asking the other guildmembers, hoping someone would know where that place is. Trevor's wing stopped hurting, and started just feeling completely numb, which wasn't really a good sign, but he tried to keep a smile on his face whenever he spoke to someone else, for reasons that only he could figure out. Once he was pointed in what he assumed was the right direction, Trevor ran out of the guild, and towards the place... only to find that his new body wasn't exactly built for running, and end up falling on his face. Once he got up from that, he sighed, and just walked there... slowly. Whether or not they were telling the truth, Trevor had no idea, he was just following whatever directions he was given, at this point.

---

Ember simply nodded in response to Eira's, well, response that 'at least he has parents', even though he wanted to go on another rant about how strict his mother was, he decided against it, at least, for now. In the meantime, he continued following her and the small elephant to her home, and it was apparent that staying behind other pokemon was something that Ember wasn't used to, not even in the slightest. Soon enough, Eira knocked on the door, and her mother, a frosslass answered. Ember was completely stunned She's... GORGEOUS! Why didn't Eira ever tell me!? Ember thought as he just stood there, at the entrance to her house. He... didn't even listen to anything that was being said at the time, and was just focused on pretty much everything else. To the outside viewer, it would look as if he was just spacing out, or was asleep with his eyes open, but that wasn't entirely the case. Eventually, Ember managed to finally say something "YES! Company! I'm the company in this case, miss, um..." Ember then started stumbling over his words, and took a few steps inside of Eira's house... finally.

---

Rick's mood completely dampened when Drip mentioned that she didn't bring any extra money as getting it was hard for her nowadays. That was understandable. He keeps on going on missions, regardless of having a party along or not. So, typically, money flows in regularly. Well, he did live alone and don't really use all that much money anyway aside from food so... With the recent activity of the Stargate, then they'll have more than enough jobs. That much he was aware of. "Ah~ I'll just cancel then." He said. He wasn't famished anyhow, so he can just watch Drip eat and come back later with his money.

Before he could raise his hand to tell Kelly to cancel his order, she went over and told them that she would put it on the tab. Before he could say that it was fine and he could live with not eating for a while, she went on to say that it was no trouble at all. Rick gave her a big grin - getting back to his happy demeanor. "Thanks a bunch Kelly. I'll be sure to pay it off later." He reassured her. Rick did only leave his money so it wasn't going to be a problem.

He looked back at Drip when she started talking. He let out a genuinely nervous laugh and said, "Too true." Rick knew that fully well. His accident prone nature is what makes him the least possible candidate to be a mentor. He didn't mind. Having someone under his wing was cool and all, but being too careful wasn't exactly his kind of nature. "Really now? Care to share?" He was quite interested in this.

---

Once they'd arrived at Eira's house, a Froslass, who Hanna assumed was Eira's foster mother, answered the door.Hanna smiled "Howdy. I'm Hanna, from the guild. I just wanted to make sure these two got home safe." she said. "There was a little bit of a situation earlier today." She just left it at that, since she didn't know a lot of the details. Eira and Ember were actually there, so they could explain it a lot better than she could. She looked back at Ember, who appeared to be staring off into space. Before she could say anything, though, he suddenly snapped out of it. Hanna couldn't help but chuckle a little. "Come on now, Ember. Don't you go fallin' asleep on us." She said, making her way inside with everybody else.

@Lugia @Ridlins
[Medburn Town - Central Plaza]

"A situation? What happened, Eira?" She'd ask as she got down some fruit and water from the kitchen. "O-oh, it wasn't anything big... just got a little banged up from the earthquake." She'd turn to Ember. "R-right, Ember?" She'd ask, giving a glint in her eyes trying to tell him to go along with it. She didn't want her mother to worry about what had happened to them.

"I'm just glad you're safe, that's what matters." The Froslass would reply as she brought what she had in her arms into the room, sitting on the table. "Help yourselves, there's more than enough to go around." She'd offer.

@Lugia @Evanist
[Medburn Town - Medburn Guild]

Turning to the Togepi, Lachlan would give a thumbs up. "You're fine, we all get caught up in the moment sometimes." He'd reply with a smile. "Yeah, I think there's one here in the gui-" He'd start to reply to the Noibat, before turning and finding he'd vanished again. "We... really need to keep a closer eye on him..." He'd sigh and turn back to Celina. "Come on, let's go find him again..." He'd motion to her as he left the room.

Lachlan (and presumably Celina) headed over to the Medical Wing of the Guild, only to find that he wasn't there. "Why wouldn't he come here? I told you guys how dangerous it's going to be out there..." He was starting to really worry now. They could still be out there, just waiting for them to come out... "Come on, we've gotta go find him, quick!" He'd spurt out, making a beeline for the door.

--

Lurking off the side of one of the main streets, Mech would be watching the Guild from afar. With Mizu and Ignition off to Lively Town, he and his team were the only guys nearby. Seemed kind of dumb to him, but the boss has his reasons. His eyes would come upon a much welcomed sight, a lone Noibat leaving the Guild. He appeared to be injured, too. It was strange, like he didn't know where he was going or what he was doing...

If he had a mouth he would be smiling. "Must be my lucky day... I bet that's one of 'em." He'd look to his lackeys. "Once he's out of sight, go invite him for a 'chat'." He'd order, two Pawniard nodding as they ducked down the alley, eventually coming out behind the Noibat as they followed from a distance.

@Polaris North
[Medburn Town - Kelly's Cafe]

Looking over to the side, she'd sigh. "He's... interesting. He's gotten into trouble with the wrong crowd, the guild's had to bail him out a few times even. And I think he's got a grudge against one of the Swords of Justice, Keldeo I think..." She'd explain, looking back to him. "It's a bit silly, but he always seems to be up to something around town. It's just worrying, joining the Guild could either fix his attitude or make it worse." She'd finish, just in time for Kelly to return with their meals.

"Order's up, here ya go." The Kangaskhan would speak before setting down the trays with food before the two. "Thanks, Kelly." Drip would say before beginning her meal.

Celina nod at what Lachlan was saying. Why would Trevor leave them quickly like that. I mean.. sure.. he was hurt.. but the group needed to stay together right now.

“I am not sure. I am worried he might get hurt or something.” She then said before following Lachlan as much as she can, running to head outside right now, hoping that Trevor wasen’t going to do something stupid here. She just hoped he would not end up meeting the wrong kind of people and be beat up cause of this. She moved as fast as she can, though it was not easy considering her body. Geez she REALLY could not wait to evolve, cause with this body, it was hard running. At least she would be able to fly when she does evolve, although when would that happen.. that was another story. She kept moving forwards, looking at a distance and seeing Trevor.

“Trevor! Wait up!” she yelled as much as she could as she ran.. before falling straight down on her face.
“Stupid short legs of..” she says, annoyed as heck as she got back up. She needed to get used to this body, that is for sure.

---

Rick listened intently to Drip's explanation, nodding every now and then. There really wasn't much information to be absorbed. The guy was a delinquent - getting himself into trouble that had to have other people bail him out. "He doesn't seem to be the dangerous type of pokemon. Yeah, he gets into a bit of trouble but he's not a criminal. Shouldn't worry about it too much." The Monferno replied with an easy shrug, leaning back into his seat. "Besides, he's joining an exploration guild. He'll learn." He gave her a grin as he placed his two hands behind his back. He honestly didn't get what was so bad about this guy. A little troublemaker... it's always fun to have one around as long as it didn't really hurt anyone. And he doubted a child would have any really bad intentions.

His attention was taken by Kelly coming back with their order. He grinned at her and nodded in gratitude before taking a bite off his sandwich and relishing in the taste. Ah yep, that hit the spot. It was certainly something that at least gave him comfort after that earthquake and getting injured. Count on food to do that for you. Before he took another bite, he looked back at Drip. "But what really caught my attention was that he has a grudge on 'ol Keldeo." Rick said. He drummed his fingers on the table. "What could the leader of the Swords of Justice have possible done for someone to hate him?" Now there was an occurrence you don't hear everyday.

It was certainly not easy walking around with a possibly broken wing, but Trevor somehow managed to do that with a smile, just so the others wouldn't be alerted to his condition... oddly enough, however, everyone seemed to point him to some alleyway, which, once Trevor figured it out, he... well, he ran as fast as he could back to his team, which who were near the guild. "GAH, those weird pokemon... they tried to lead me to an alleyway of all places! Uh... I'm pretty sure I wouldn't want to go to a hospital in there, a-and it was... um... a bit... dark. Sorry about earlier, um... do you guys know if there's a hospital, or something similar in the guild? I don't think I can trust the townsfolk, anymore..." Trevor then looked down, he had hoped that this town would prove to be trustworthy and he didn't like being proven wrong, either. He then simply smiled, and waited for the rest of his team to lead him to where he can finally get his wing fixed up. Maybe it was wrong to try to make sure they won't worry, especially if the problem could easily get worse... maybe Trevor would learn that, as well.

---

Ember was completely lost in thought until he heard Eira speak... seems as though she wanted to tell her mother that she got a little bit hurt in the earthquake, and Ember was no stranger to stretching the truth. Once asked, he answered "Yes! The earthquake got her, a little bit... probably because of her rock typing, I felt it, too, but I was a bit safer," Ember then sat and ate what the Froslass had prepared for him, secretly wondering when Eira would finally ask if she could join the guild... he wouldn't have taken this long, he would have just headed into his home, asked, and then ran to the guild, afterwards... regardless of what his parents said. Of course, that might cause some suspicions with the small elephant who decided to follow them for now. Is she going to try to join our 'team'? If she does, I might have to tell her no... but then Eira might tell her yes before I answer... and if she IS joining... what would that mean for my REVENGE!? Would SHE be willing to help me with it as much as Eira is? Ember thought to himself as the group probably continued talking to Eira's mother.

---

As they ate what Eira's mother brought out to them, Eira explained what happened. She left out one detail, though - the fact that they were attacked. Hanna assumed that she did it because she didn't want her mother to worry about her. Being a terrible liar herself, though, she knew she'd blow Eira's cover if she tried to confirm her story, so instead, she just changed the subject. "A-anyway, Eira here was talkin' about joinin' the guild earlier." She said. "Since she's a minor, though, she's gonna need your permission first. If y'all go down to the guild later, Arnold can get everything set up for you."

@Lugia @Ridlins
[Medburn Town - Central Plaza]

The old Ice Type was silent as the group explained what was going on. She figured there was more to the story, but if Eira didn't want to tell her it wasn't her place to press her for the answers. "If that's what Eira wants to do, I won't hold her back. She's a smart girl, I trust her judgement." She'd reply as Eira's eyes would brighten. "Y-you really mean it?" She'd ask in surprise.

Turning to her adopted daughter, the Froslass would nod. "I do. I've cared for you for so many years, even though you're not I consider you my daughter. I just want you to be happy, and if this makes you happy, then go for it with everything you've got." She'd finish, a smile coming across Eira's face.

Turning to Ember, this would probably be the happiest she'd ever looked. "Did you hear that? All we have to do now is get your parents permission and we can actually do this!" She'd happily remark.

@Lugia @Evanist
[Medburn Town - Medburn Guild]

As their teammate rather clumsily returned to their side and recounted what happened, Lachlan would wear a look of great concern on his face. "I told you you shouldn't go out without someone with you, that just proves that those guys are still hanging around here!" He'd warn his teammates before looking around the area, but now it seemed the streets were clear of any shady individuals.

Sighing, he'd turn back towards the Guild. "Come on, there's a healing place inside the Guild. They should be able to help you out." The Ralts would beckon, waving the team back towards the building they'd been in previously.

@Polaris North
[Medburn Town - Kelly's Cafe]

Finishing an Oran Berry, she'd look up. "I hope you're right about that." She'd reply, shrugging as he'd pose the question of why Ember hated the leader of the Swords. "I've got nothin' on that one. I don't know who could hate them, they've done so much for the world." She'd offer no real answer for his question. She'd focus back to her meal, only half finished by now as she took a bite of lettuce.

Celina moved and got back up before moving towards Lachlan, giving a nod at him.

“It’s probably safer in the guild then outside… “ she said, thinking then. “If we are going to work this out and train up… we may need some help of other pokemon in the guild.. Possibly strong ones that are trustworthy…. It would be safer that way.” She then said. Logically, the more strong people with them, the less chance of being captured or killed by something big while they train up, but who would want to help them… without attracting too much attention. Cause there was also that… it would feel strange for people to have strong pokemons guard smaller ones and probably give clues about who the group was with all that was happening in the world.

“Although it might make us a target if some of them didn’t know who we were… which would be a risk…” she then adds, thinking. Needed to think with strategy here and think about how people would react to each way. Think how a criminal would react to be able to counter them.

“So… what do you guys think would be a better idea… try to get help or try to do this without having too much attention on us.. or any other ideas?” she said right now, her voice lowered a bit.

---

Rick let out a light laugh. "Drip, I always hope I'm right." The Monferno stretched his limbs as he leaned back. There was something about the kid that tickled his funny bone, but it wasn't anything bad per se, so he wasn't too wary of him. Though Drip's suspicions on the kid seemed to be a lot, which was kind of worrying. But oh well oh well, really doesn't matter now.

Rick shrugged. "Apparently, this one has a reason." He then took a bite of his sandwich once again, propping his elbow onto the table in front of them and placing his head on it. "Real shame to, seeing as the Swords of Justice are going to be staying for a while because of the recent disturbances."

As Trevor's two future teammates berated him for going outside, as well they should, he just nodded, and followed Lalchan to the medical wing of the guild, clumsily walking around as he did. Kinda odd how I'm somehow even clumsier than when I was human... maybe that has something to do with the fact that this body's built to fly, at least, mostly. he thought as he continued on, the cold, thankfully splinter-free floor under his feet, and the smell of... something getting stronger as he continued. Of course, he also heard the rest of the guild's chatter, something about how the portal was going to create a disaster, and how this wasn't the first time this has happened. Trevor figured that simply existing in this world would cause it to go to pure chaos. He spotted a small fairy type pokemon, one of the ones that held flowers in their hands, and he shuddered as he passed by, knowing full well that if he angered it, he would be HELPLESS in a fight, and, oddly enough, the thing seemed to notice him shudder, as it looked at Trevor, confused. It then asked why he was shaking, but he didn't want to answer that question, especially since he thought it would use that answer against him, no, instead, he just kept walking, despite the fact that the small fairy pokemon was now following him.

---

It seemed as if the plan was going well for Ember, and once he snapped back into reality, he answered "Eh? Yes, I guess all that's left IS my parents' permission, or, more accurately, my MOM'S permission!" Ember shouted in his usual voice before finishing some of the food that was brought to them, and leaving the place behind him. Of course, while Ember would like nothing more than for his mother to never meet either of these two, he knew that they'd get suspicious of him if he just bolted off, again, so, he made sure that the rest of the team could follow as he headed to the outskirts of town. Away from the sights, smells, and sounds of city life, there was one... oddly enough, tree that he and his parents lived in, despite most of the family being fire types. Ember always wondered why his own fire moves never burned the tree, and he assumed that the nosy pokemon behind him would ask that exact question, so, he just blurted out "No, I don't know how it hasn't burned down yet, either! Maybe it's the type of tree they make guilds out of, or something!" Ember then remembered this one time he saw a slugma enter the guild... and somehow, the wooden structure didn't immediately burst into flames... again, somehow, the wood was immune to fire.

---

Thankfully, Eira's guardian trusted her enough to allow her to join the guild. Whether or not Ember's mother would allow it, though, remained to be seen. Based on what Ember had said so far, she seemed a little overprotective, but it was possible that Ember was just exaggerating. Hanna hoped that it was the latter.

After they'd all finished eating, it was time for them to head over to Ember's house. "Thanks for the meal." Hanna said to the elderly Froslass as they left. Ember's house was on the town's outskirts, built into a large tree. "A lot o' the buildings 'round here are fire resistant. This must be the kind o' tree they use." Hanna told the young Vulpix when he expressed his confusion as to why his home hadn't burned down yet. Of course, she wasn't entirely sure, but it seemed likely.

[Medburn Town - Medburn Guild]

As the group finally reached the clinic inside, Lachlan stopped for a moment as he felt... odd. Nervous was the better term. It wasn't him though, he felt fine himself. Unsure of what the feeling meant, he looked to Celina. "I don't know... we've barely even started using our moves yet... not sure going out there is the best thing right now... especially with everything that's happened since we woke up..." He'd respond, focusing back to their task at hand. "First, though, let's get you patched up Trevor."

Heading through the doorway, a Chansey would be simply tidying up the smaller room as she spotted him. "Hello dear, something I can help you with?" She'd ask, the Ralts looking over his shoulder. "My friend's wing here is in bad shape, we were hoping you could take a look." He'd ask. "Of course! Come in, take a seat! I'll have you back and healthy in no time." She'd state, looking over to the Fairy Type that had followed them. "Ah, Nene, perfect timing as usual. Aki had to run into town, I'll need your help here." The Chansey would call over, the Floette nodding. "Right, Kim. I saw him coming this way, figured you might need a hand. It's banged up pretty bad, it looks like." She'd reply as she moved to Kim's side.

[Medburn Town - Ember's House]

After another of Ember's hasty departures, the prehistoric Ice Type found it difficult to keep up with her more nimble friend as they headed into the outskirts, coming before the tree Ember stated as her home. She wasn't sure what kind of tree it was to resist fire, but it sounded like a large Chestnut Tree to her. "Well... I'm ready when you are... it can't be that bad, can it?" She'd ask, admittedly slightly curious as to why the Vulpix seemed to be slightly stalling.

"Oh, really? I thought they were just here to give a message." She'd respond, finishing the last piece of her salad as she looked back up. "You could hear their voices clear across the Guild earlier, sounded really intense." She'd mention. "Whatever it is, I really doubt they're here for long. They never stick around in one place for long, from what I've heard." She'd finish.

Rick practically gobbled up the rest of his sandwhich after that. He had a content look on his face as he leaned back on his bench. His smile seemed to falter with the news that the four pokemon wouldn't be staying long. He scratched his cheek. "That so? Well, I was hoping they would stay here for a while. Really puts the people at ease."

"By the way, Drip, we should head back. If the discussion earlier was really intense, don't you think they might need us? Injury aside, I should at least listen if something happens." Rick suggested. He wasn't one to sit tight after all, and he was pretty curious about this. And he wasn't exactly going to let go of the fact that there's something happening and he wants the info quickly.

If it was back, he wanted to know immediately. If his brother get involves in this, then he doesn't know what he will do. He needed to think about it now. Weird for him, but if someone else was in the equation, Rick wasn't going to hesitate to take the lead.
