Spruce seemed to be doing better after Kamina's attempt to cool him down, or at least better than he was before. He offered the apples that he grabbed before to whoever needed them. It had been a while since the last time he'd eaten, so he decided to take one. "Thanks, Spruce." He said. He tried to eat it quickly, since wild Pokemon would probably attack any minute now. Then again, they didn't seem to be getting into a lot of fights.

Nina was apparently naive enough to believe that their client forgot to pay them because he was inexperienced with this kind of thing. Dexter, on the other hand, could clearly see what was really happening. "You probably don't realize this, but you're getting ripped off." He said. "I'm 90% sure they didn't just forget to pay you. These shady underground groups pull this kind of shit all the time."
Just as Dexter finished talking, a Gible and a Swablu appeared and attacked Nina. "Alright, we'll deal with this once we get back." He said. Since the Gible posed more of a threat to him, he decided to go for it first. Knowing it would probably resist Ember, he charged forward and bit down as hard as he could. He could tell that the attack hurt it, but not nearly enough to knock it out.
