Nest egg
Khoury's POV
"Wow look at all the branches we've cleaned up," I sighed. "It feels good to be a part of something small, yet the project is large." We both looked at the stack. There must have been at least two hundred branches in the pile. Even our Pokémon did their best to help too. Gible mostly ate the braches. If her Girafarig found any leaves on the branches, she'd pick them off and eat them; Stantler did this, too. Croconaw would snap them in half, while her Marill carried them to the pile and left them alone.
"I know what you mean. I like that feeling too, being a small part of something large. It's nice."
"Hello young'uns, I think you deserve some money for helping us out," a man said. "I'm Chuck, the gym leader here." We both shook his hand while he handed us five bucks.
"Thank you!" we both said in unison.
"Hey, no problem, I thought you deserved it. I'm at my gym if you want to challenge me. I'll see you young'uns later," he smiled.
"Bye," we both replied and watched him walk off.
A/N: Khoury: Michelle says we have to wait until the alphabet challenge is done before we can challenge him.
Lyra: What? That sucks.
Khoury: Yeah, I know.
