After dropping Amethyst at the clinic I dashed toward the location where I had to drop of my delivery. The large mass of Pokemon running through out the small town had dispersed leaving on small group. This left an empty path straight to and ally between two buildings. Making sure as few eyes saw I traveled down it.
The place was obviously shady with the graffiti of countless Pokemon on the wall. I looked back over my shoulder out of paranoia only to see no one. When I turned around I caught a whiff of a awful smell.
A Gulpin had appeared in front of me. His body oozing out slime adding to the stench. Eyes barely open he spoke letting sludge pour out. "You the girl." he said lazily.
"Ya." I responded.
"Come on." he said turning around.
The slime Pokemon creeped along leaving a trail of slime. I did my best to avoid stepping in it as I followed him down another alleyway. Eventually we came to a well maintained door. Its very presence seemed out of place.
"Boss is inside talk to her." as he drifted off into sleep.
This was my first time with this client her help left plenty to be desired. Entering the room I saw three more Gulpin in the corners along with crates throughout the room. Other than those three a Gothitelle with a pink scarf was sitting on something behind one of crate.
She had a scowl on her face. Her eyes only showed the emotion of anger. When she studded up it gave me an uneasy feel.
"Where's my berries now!" She demanded slamming her hands on crate.
I made sure to keep myself calm when I spoke. "Right here."
I had barely placed them before she snacked one up and began to examine it. She was making odd noise as she turned around and around and flipping. She did this with each of the Roseli berries to determine the authenticity.
After the last berry was examined I decided to discuss the price. "As you can see all the berries are real now let us discuss the payment." I said in my normal harsh tone.
She began to force a laugh. "Pay scum like you! Servants poison gas now!" She said pulling her scarf over her nose and mouth as the Gulpin spewed out the poisonous gas. She was shock that the gas was having no effect.
"You idiots way isn't it working?" She shouted grabbing the closest Gulpin and shaking him.
The Gulpin shrugged at the question. The Gothitelle threw the Gulpin at me, but missed horrible hitting one of the other Gulpin. She then charged me. She clearly hadn't thought her plan of attack through. I easily toppled her. Her allies ran off as soon as her back hit the floor. I placed one of my paws on her chest forcing her to say down.
"HOW DARE YOU TOUCH ME!" she screamed at the top of her lungs.
I slammed my paw down on her again knowing the wind out of her. "Keep it down. Now I'm guessing that your big plan was that pecha scarf would keep you safe as I die of poison." I open my mouth showing of my canine as my own poison began to drip from them. "Lets see if it can prevent poison through a bite."
"Don't I'll pay." she said struggling to breath.
"Dubble it and I might let you go."
"Please."
"You'll get no sympathy from me."
"Fine."
I lifted my paw and she scurried back until she hit on of the crates in the room. At this point I felt a bit sad for the girl, but I made sure not to show it. Her once aggressive eyes had turned to that of a frightened child's.
After emptying everything she had to pay even giving up her scarf. She stumbled out the door as I gathered my payment. "All right I need to check on Amethyst" I said heading out the door. I had a brief thought going back for the berries, but I'm sure they were ruined by the poison gas
The dark alley was much brighter now with the sun over head. Must of been around noon. Guess our deal took longer than I though. Hurrying out of the alley I made my way back on to the main street. Almost all Pokemon on the had made their way of the main street for one reason for another leaving only a few bird Pokemon on tops of buildings. It gave me a clear view of the clinic.
