Saturn the Charmander and Hinata the Chikorita had always wondered where Xatu placed all those treasure chests he obtained. But now, they had finally figured it out.
Instead of being chucked into a river or some other absurb place, they were either distributed around town (mainly in the Kangaskhan Storage. Dailga knows how much space that woman needs...) or one of the Exploration Teams from the Guild would go about into dungeons and give them to Pokémon.
Which leads us to where our Charmander and Chikorita friends were situated. They were currently being mobbed in the Crystal Cave by numerous Pokémon, as well as their two team-mates, the gender confused Shellos, Hanyuu, and the suicidal Geodude, Yochi.
"Why did we agree to this misson again?" Hanyuu asked, panic in his voice as he backed up against a wall.
"Well...It offered a Reviver Seed as well as a hundred points that we need to upgrade our storage." Saturn answered, before taking a deep breath and releasing a powerful Flamethrower. It hit a Beldum, who was quickly vanquished. A Golem headed straight towards Hinata, who quickly used Razor Leaf to get rid of the pesky Ground-type. Yochi muttered a curse before getting in the middle of the brawl, and her three team-mates either gasped or cursed as they started to head for cover to evade the coming Explodsion.
Now with a good portion of their opponents weakened (and the unfortunate Saturn who was unable to avoid the blast in time), they started to pick off their opponents with a mix of attacks.
Thirty long minutes later, the group of four who had now been reduced to three stood panting over the large bodies of the Ground and Steel type Pokémon. Saturn pulled out the Treasure Box and started to place the empty treasure chests around the bodies of the Pokémon. Hinata and Hanyuu helped in distributing them, and they stood happily but tired after they had completed the work. They all huddled around Saturn who had an Escape Orb before she threw it into the air and they were transported back to Treasure Town.
Xatu stood in front of the misson boards, looking quite pleased. "You have done a good job. Here is your reward: a Reviver Seed and 25 Poké. I'll be off now." Saturn and Hinata blinked at the small amount of cash that they had recieved before coming on a firm decision.
"We're never going on a misson from Xatu ever again!!"
I had also wondered where Xatu got rid of all those boxes that I seemed to bring him. Ahh, well...Guess we'll never know. Anyways, I got myself a copy of Pokémon Mystery Dungeon 2: Darkness and am enjoying it very much. This'll most likely start off a series of Pokémon Mystery Dungeon one-shots in one, compact story. Yays! Oh, and a bit of news for you D/P fans. The third version is suppose to come out in 2009 and is called Pokémon Platinum, and features Giratina! Already can't wait!
