Xanthia glanced back to Anubis, watching the ghost pester one of the other trainers while cackling. "Anubis." She called, waving the egg in his direction. Anubis immediately pulled down the corner of his eyes with his clawed hands and gave her a raspberry, sailing off and knocking something off a table with a cackle. But apparently, the temptation of holding the egg was too much, and Anubis inched back towards her, cautiously reaching and then yanking it from her hands. He then proceeded to hold the egg in his arms, cackling gleefully.
Good. That should keep him busy. At least for a little while. Xanthia's eyes drifted over towards the trainer who'd made the off-handed comment about Anubis as she finished setting up her new pokedex. He had short black hair and was wearing glasses, washed out and torn pants, and a shirt which looked as if it came from a thrift store. There was an Abra perched on his back, its eyes closed as it seemed to be sleeping.
She narrowed her eyes as she walked over to him. "You know.. its not THAT bad having Anubis." she stated. "I mean.. its still pretty bad.. but he is loyal! In his own destructive way." She loved Anubis, despite his chaotic nature and she would defend the irritating ghost with her life.
As if on cue, Anubis swerved towards the boy Xanthia was talking to, the grin vanished from his face as he sailed across the sky, tilting his head and calmly surveying the new trainer. Then he grinned, teeth glinting like pearls as he shifted the egg into one arm, reached up a claw and flicked the boy right in the forehead. He floated away, cackling with glee as he cuddled with the egg.
"Anubis!" Xanthia's face turned a shade of pink. "Scratch that. You are the absolute worst!" She shouted at him. Anubis paused in his flight, looking a bit guilty and perhaps a bit sorry about what he'd done. But it was only for a moment because he was soon distracted by shifting the egg around in his arms.
Xanthia sighed. "Sorry about Anubis. I'm Xanthia.. rookie trainer from Unova. And you are?"
