"Okay! Here's the plan for tonight!" Flame rose up several mail in the air while Phantom, Brioche, Fists, and Destiny all sat up around a table at the lively first floor of the happy tree. All of them wearing backpacks with scarves tagged with a team badge...Except for Solosis who worn nothing.
"Um...I don't want to be a party pooper, but shouldn't we wait for tomorrow?" Destiny ask while looking back toward at the guild's exit, the night sky visible from where they are sitting and spotting a koffing talking to a Ekans.
"Destiny! We can't squander what we have from the guild! We just got healed up to perfection, and none of us are sleepy...Right?" Flame smiles up to everyone, awaiting a response.
Brioche places his fins together looking back at Destiny. "I know you have a specific sleeping schedule, Destiny...But you shouldn't worry much!" He smiles to her. "There might come a time when we will have to face dangers while at our worst...But we have a wonderful opportunity to be at our best thanks to the guild's healers! Please do not worry!" He bows down toward her.
"Yeah! Bad guys are no match to us right now! We're so pumped up they'll never see us coming!" Chimed in Fists.
"Are you all sure...? I mean...Aren't we all gonna be so sleepy in the morning? We have a meeting after dinner tomorrow! ...What if something happens to us and we can't be there?" Destiny frowned.
Flame got up on the table, motioning the cards toward Destiny while walking about. "Destiny! Anything can happen but if I learned something in the past days is that there are pokemons out there waiting for their saviors to come and save them! From boredom, and from many dangers! Tonight, we have the chance to do something about that, so let's do that right now!" Flame flops down on the table, belly first with one paper at paw toward Brioche who retort back.
'H-Huh?" Brioche picks up the card, reading it. "...Um...A watery trouble? From Hoothoot: While I and my brother was fighting, my read scope was knocked off from my face and fell into the water of happy lake! Will you please retrieve it? I'll pay!" He hugs the paper while looking back to Flame with a smile. "...Awww, you've picked up one just for me! Thank you!"
Flames nods. "Hmhm!" He got back up on the table. "Because we have different typing, it means we can grab different missions specifically made for our talents! That means..." Flame spins on himself and places a paper in front of Destiny.
"Huh? Should I read it...?" She looks back to Flame, confused. He nods back to her with a smile. She then looks back to the paper. "Okay...Sorry if I'm a little slow, I'm still trying to get it right...Um...Ah! Looking for someone to freeze my basement! ...Worth 5 points, gives 50 coins, chople...Chop? Chop...le? ...street? House five! Sent by Toxtricity must have ice type moves! ...I just bought my home and I want someone to chill out for me. Come as soon as possible. Availability: as soon as possible...Um..." Destiny looks back up to Flame. "...As soon as possible? I don't think that means knocking in the middle of the night...?"
Flame picks the paper up and read it. "Actually, when it says as soon as possible, that means we can go right away!" He then places the paper down on the table. "Okay! The rest are all for us! He sat up on the table and began to read the rest. "First one! ...We got a bunch of Natus walking around town! Their father wants them back home safe and sound as soon as possible!"
"Natus? ...These are small, greenish birds, am I correct?" Brionne ask.
"Correct! Natus and Xatus aren't from anywhere here, but they're renown for seeing both the past and future! They're little green birds, and they also have slanty-like eyes!" Flame explain while stretching his eyes and getting up. "And a red feather on top of their head!" He grabs onto Phantom's ghostly appendage on his head and yank it up.
"Ow!" Phantom phases through Flame's hand. "No need to do that, man!"
Flame kept walking about on the table while looking back at the paper. "These natus should be either in happy town itself, or not so far in the forest! Our best bet is to check nearby areas while heading to do the other quests!" Flame kept explaining. "It says here that each of them are worth their own price so for each we get points! ...Meaning anyone from any team can pick any!"
Flame then sit up. "Okay! Another one we have is...Ohhh, mushroom picking! Around this time of the year the fabled-Not so fabled-Reddish yellow stripped mushroom called Labane is sprouting up in happy forest! While it's known for it's venomous properties, the beneficial effects of this shroom can do wonder for those who know how to use it! I need at least more than a handful of them for a potion!" Flames slides the card toward Phantom. "That's the one for you!" Flame happily says.
Phantom picks up the card and read it for himself. "Hm, makes sense."
"Wait, why would that be for Phantom?" Destiny ask.
"Huh? You don't know? Venomous means it's dangerous to the touch! We could pick it up but then we'd have to deal with the effects!" Flame explained while rising one hand toward her.
"Yeah, if it was just poisonous, that wouldn't be a problem." Phantom says.
"I can help pick up those shrooms too but I'd much prefer bashing bad guys!" Whined Fists.
"Another one coming up is...! Beat some sense into my hasty son!"
"Wait-WHAT?" Destiny shouts up.
Flame turns up to her. "That's right! Slaking here says his son keep running around the house and doesn't want to listen to him at all! He actually managed to tell a bird to come and make this announcement for him! Look!" He turns up the paper toward her face, pointing at the requester's name. "Says here that a pidgey is the requestee!"
"...A...But why? I don't want to do that one!-Wait no, let's go talk some sense to that father! Nobody has the right to beat someone like that!" Destiny explained with an angry tone."Where is it?"
Flame turns up the paper and read it again. "Says here's it's one of our closest! Cornn street, house twenty! ...And because of the nature of the situation, it says here we can go anytime we want!" He pats up the paper before sliding it toward Destiny who quickly reads it.
"Ugh, the way you explain it is so much nicer than what's written. He calls his son a bastard."
"Thanks! I just don't like saying exactly what's written! That's too boring!" Flame explained while looking back at his paper. "So for the next one...We have! Ah-hah! Put some sense into me! Awaiting at the happy lake-Hey! We have to go there! Sweet! ...Is a Rockruff who wants to fight! He'll accept anyone, but his money and points will only go to the person who makes him evolves! How grand!" Flame balances himself.
"What's up with that? Why would he want to fight?" Destiny ask.
"Because he's a rockruff, silly! They love fighting so it's only makes sense!" He slides that one next to Brionne. "I know you already got one, but you're the one that has the advantage of the fight if you'd like!"
"Oh? Thank you!" Brioche smiles back.
"No, not thank you! It's a fight! You shouldn't thanks him!" Destiny whines.
"No, don't feel bad!" Brioche waved his fins in front of him toward Destiny. "It's just a friendly fight! Beside all I'll use is water and my voice so please don't feel too bad!"
"Huh? That...Doesn't sound as bad?" Destiny respond back, confused. She then sigh. "...I guess I'm just not used to what is known as common for pokemons..."
"I'm as stumped as you are, Destiny. Don't worry about it." Phantom shrugged.
"Yeah! Beside we got the lunar festival coming up, but that one we'll be keeping the details for tomorrow! Right, Phantom?" Flame looks back toward the little ghost.
"Yeah?"
"Hmhm! So then..Those are all stuff we can do inside or close of happy town! We can even split ourselves! Phantom could go get the shrooms, brionne and solosis at the lake! I and Destiny go do the son and the basement!"
"Wait wait wait, why split that way? I barely even know you!" Destiny respond in shock.
"Phantom can fly and see in the dark! That mission should be a breeze for him and then he can simply come over to either us or go to brioche and Fists! Fists has to be with someone because he can't-"
"She!" Destiny cuts flame, Fists giggles in return.
"...She? My bad!- Can't hold anything yet until she turns into a duosion, or at least a-"
"FISTS!" Fists screams out, bouncing down on the table while cutting Flame's words.
"...Become a Reuniclus!" Explained Flame. "The reason why we'll be together is because I can breathe fire and illuminate your path in the basement! Plus we should have it easy with the son!"
Destiny let out a sigh. "We won't be fighting, Flame. I swear it. I really don't want to fight, and I'm sure we can just talk it out." She explained to the scorbunny.
"...If you says so! But we're still barging in!" Flame proudly says, the ice type vulpix rolled her eyes in response. "Any objections to this setup?"
"YES!" Destiny shouts while putting her paws on the table. "I don't want to be alone with you! I want to be in as a group! We barely know each others!" She looks around toward everyone. "It's the same for you guys, right? Phantom, you wouldn't want to be alone at all...Even if you are a ghost, right?" Phantom shrugs back while Destiny looks toward Brionne. "Brioche! You and Fists are on bad terms! Why is it suddenly the opposite?" Brionne and Solosis looks at each others.
"...I never said I was on bad terms with Fists?" Brioche explain. "What I said is how relentless she is in a fight, but I never said it was a bad thing!"
"Awww, that's so sweet of you!" Chimed Fists in a happy fashion, Brioche smiles back to her.
"Beside! It's night time! All the scary stalkers are out there waiting to kidnap us! We're not strong enough for anything out there!" She then whined.
"Relax! It's like you've never seen a fight! Beside happy town is filled with pokemons that can detect and prevent fights!- For good reasons that is, but yeah! It's no biggie!" Flames explained. "Happy town is also one of the safest place in the whole, whole, world! ...Maybe- But I'd like to think so!" Flame balanced himself.
"...Beside, Destiny, back in our world we didn't have a bunch of cool powers to defend ourselves!" Phantom explained while going at her side and pat her shoulder, however she quickly stares back at him and retort back.
"Don't do that!"
"My bad!" Phantom lifts his stubby hands toward her while returning to his seat.
"Wait, so you two used to know each others?" Brioche ask.
"Nah, I doubt it...? Maybe?" Phantom ask, unsure. "Either way, it's just something that should come back to us later when we'll figure out where we came from." He shrugs.
"I hope we don't...Last thing I need to know is if you're somehow family. I really don't need to know that!"
"Hey, me neither! But on the bright side, least you'd be one of the kinder side of my family!"
"I still don't get it? You two came from another world as the same species...Correct?" Brioche ask.
"Yeah..." Destiny respond back.
"Yep, Humans. Bipeds, clothes, all that good stuff." Phantom says.
"Anyway! Destiny...! I know you're weird out at the moment, but think of it that way! That is the fastest way to do our missions in the shortest time! ...And you're the only one who find it weird! Don't human do these sorts of plans too?" Flame ask toward Phantom, who nods back. "...I swear I will protect you with my life! ...And I really swear we won't get in a fight tonight!" He then places himself in a begging position toward Destiny. "...Please?"
Destiny takes a good moment to examine the Scorbunny and everyone else. She then let a sigh. "...Fine."
"YES!" Flames shouts up, lifting his two arms in the air, then balances himself. "You won't regret it! Destiny!"
"Beside...That badge around my neck is specifically made to send people at the guild, right? You said I could use my chin to teleport myself out of trouble right away?" Destiny ask while moving her neck around, feeling the bandanna wrapped around it, her badge tagged just downward of her jaw.
"Hmhm! You can even bite it! But you have to do it veeeeeeeery softly- not that it matters because these badges are made to withstand even the biggest hits thanks to their magical properties, but it does because that means your teeth can shatter if you use all of your might!" Flame explained while Destiny widen her eyes in fear, but then shook herself.
"I...I didn't need to know that? Maybe..? Just thinking about it makes my teeth hurt..."
"With everything set, I can officially say we are ready to go!" Flame happily says while jumping down the table. "Everyone to my side! I want everyone to touch my hand!"
"Oh? Pokemons do that too?" Destiny ask while heading next to Flame, setting her paw on his hand.
"Aww gee, what about me and Phantom?" Fists ask.
"Ahhh, don't worry about it!" Phantom press a invisible hand on top of Destiny. "I got telekinesis so I can just imagine a second hand for you!"
Brioche puts his hand on top of the invisible hand. "That feels weird!"
"Awww, but I can do that too! But it's not as fun!" Fists whines while imagining a cord going on top of Brioche's hand.
"Okay? Everyone ready?" Flames ask. Everyone respond back with their own yes.
"READY!" Flame lift up his hand, everyone does the same.
–-
"...I can't believe I've agreed to this..." Destiny whispered while Flame happily skipped in front of her further away.
He suddenly stop to turn himself back to her. "Relax! We'll be fine!" He balances himself happily. "I said I will defend you!" He flexes while winking at her with a confident look.
"Wait- You heard me?" Destiny ask, shocked.
Flame kept himself in his pose while twitching his ears. "...How come you heard me? You don't have super hearing...Right?" Destiny ask, worried.
"As a matter of fact, I have! I pride myself with my ears, so any bad guys around us will be heard a mile away!" He proudly says while putting his two fists on his hips.
"...But does that mean if there are any loud noise, that would damage your ears?" Destiny ask while tilting her head.
"...Not really! I can control what I want to hear! Kind of." He moves his ears about then let them flop over. "See? I can just move them around and even shut them down so I get to hear less! It's not very effective but I like to think so! ...Beside, damage to my ears can be fixed if I see any healer!" He began skipping again toward destination.
"...Right, but I kind of feel bad for you-"
"Don't be! Beside I can't imagine a scenario where I'd be in trouble!" He laughed.
"...I can..." Whispered Destiny, frowning.
"Awww don't be like that! Beside we should think about our missions! If we hurry, we can catch glimpse of Brioche's fight!- Maybe!"
"I don't know...I feel we're intruding at this hour..." Destiny explained while looking around, she shuddered at the sight of the three moons, wobbling about for a few steps before trying to regain her balance. "...Are pokemons really awake at this time?"
"Of course! At the guild you guys have the healers! We could also go to a healing center and get fixed for free! ...But that's for civilians like us! There are still pokemons who have to deal with night time, day time but it's not as bad since they're already fixed up by all the stuff they can take like pills, and even a complete schedule change because contrary to the wild, they can live the way they want!" He then turn back toward Destiny while walking backward.
"And on top of that, while happy town has a lot of diurnal pokemons, there are still plenty of nocturnal pokemons, and because of that, a lot of the facilities around town can stay open indefinitely!"
"...I guess it makes sense..." Destiny looks around. "I must admit...I never expected the town to be completely lit under the stars! Even then I never saw the night sky lit up that way when I was human!" Destiny looks back up toward the sky, smiling up...But quickly averting her gaze away from the moons.
"All the more reason to why you and Phantom could be from the past!" Flame explained.
"Ugh...I swear we're not from the past...At least I hope so- Don't get me wrong, but wouldn't it make any sense if we somehow were from a huge amount of years ago? I just don't really see it...There has to be another reason to that!"
"You said you barely saw any stars in the sky, so that's one of the conclusion to why it can be! And up in the sky we have three moons instead of one! To me that will make the greatest sense!" Chimed Flame.
"Ugh...Maybe, but I'm not gonna abandon hope! It has to be something else!"
Flame went back to skipping while Destiny followed him. She kept looking around, looking for anything that seems to be a little bird, but only notices how peaceful everything seems to be as they walk through the streets.
They soon arrived to the house, Flame looks up the note again and conclude this is the right place while his ears keep twitching around toward the house. Destiny notices. "...Are you eavesdropping?"
"Actually, I can hear a lot of things getting toss and turned up in there." Flame says while pointing at the house before placing the mail inside his backpack. "Stand at my side, and get ready!" he says while going toward the door.
Destiny slowly joined Flame side, who began to knock up at the door. It didn't take long for the door to open up, revealing a eager Vigoroth. "Yeah?"
Flame passes over the mail to Vigoroth. "We came here for this!"
"Huh?" Vigoroth takes the paper, somehow managing to not tear it with his claws. He blinks twice, taking his times, his eyes darting everywhere on the paper before focusing himself on reading it whole mentally. "Uhh...UHHH..." He throws the paper backward, looking back behind him. "DAAAAAD"! He screams out, rushing back inside, leaving the door open.
Flame followed...Revealing Vigoroth jumping as if he is on a trampoline on a Slaking, who simply couldn't care...Munching on grass that somehow filled the entire floor. "YOU LAZY...GOOD FOR NOTHING...DAAAAAAAAAAAAAAD!" Flame motions toward Destiny to come to his side, she simply shakes her head in response, frowning and backing away.
The Scorbunny gives another try, beckoning her to come, but she meekly looks back down the floor instead. Flame looks back toward the duo, Vigoroth still jumping on the other. "SAY SOMETHING, DAD!"
With a long, deep breathe, Slaking somehow got his stomach tucked in before releasing it as his son hit him up, sending him flying to the ceiling, hitting his head. Instead of saying something, the big fat ape turns around and lazily set himself in a comfortable sleeping position.
"OW!" Vigoroth rubbed his neck. "I can't believe this lazy good for nothing dad can't understand I have to train!" Vigoroth crossed his arms and kicked the other, then turns back toward Flame while twitching his body on place. "And I can't believe he managed to send someone instead of raising his big fat butt to the guild!"
"Why not join the happy tree trainees? You can smack others all you want and you're even encouraged for it!" Flame happily explained.
"No, that won't do! They told me I have to sit down at times and listen! I don't do that, this isn't me!" Vigoroth jumped around explaining.
"Silly! You don't need to! You just have to join when they're doing free style combat! Anyone can join the trainees when that happens!" Flame presented his badge. "Plus the guild can tell you about places you can do to spend energy, like a fighting club, or the gym! Lots of places are there open any time of the day or night just for you!"
"Huh? Really?" Vigoroth came to Flame and pressed his palm against the badge, disappearing. Flame quickly went to destiny's side.
"We got him! Time to head back!"
"AH- WAIT!" Destiny closed her eyes while backing up, seeing Flame rushing to her with the badge. She felt him press it against her before opening her eyes and noticing she's in the guild. However, this time she notices it wasn't as bad as she thought it would be, making sure she got all of her limbs.
Flame appeared next to her, and near them is Vigoroth pushing everyone at the reception. Flame quickly joined his side to explain the situation and get the reward. Meanwhile, Destiny stood where she is, unsure of what to do. It didn't take long for Flame to come back with a little pouch, grinning while dandling the bag at hand.
"Hehe! Look at that! Not a single problem! We got paid! He's gonna have fun! Everyone is happy!" Flame happily chimed, keeping his grin large.
"...But I don't understand? What happened in there? Didn't his Father smack him...?" Destiny ask with a frown.
"Oh right, you didn't see him from where you stood. All you need to know is everything got fixed up!" Flame proudly says.
"...I still feel bad, I didn't even want to step inside the house...Not because I didn't want to, but because of sheer courtesy..." Destiny says, disappointed.
"It's fine!" Flame says while packing up the pouch into Destiny's backpack. "Besi-"
"Why are you putting it in my backpack?"
"Because mine is a bit packed due to Phantom! Beside our next mission will absolutely need you inside a house!" Flame then pushed destiny toward the exit. "Come on! Let's go! Next destination is...Toxtricity!"
"Ugh...Fine but please don't push me!" Destiny forward herself.
–-
Brioche and Fists appeared near the lake thanks to one of the guild's psychic's teleportation spell. Both of them looks around, noticing some pokemons walking around, but no one that looks like a Natu, or a Rockruff.
Free to wet as much as he pleases, Brioche slides freely around as he forward himself around the lake, going at a fast space.
"Shouldn't you go inside the lake? I should call you once we see him!" Solosis ask.
"I'll be fine! I just want to exercise myself a little before the fight!" Brioche explained while jumping into the air and twirling, letting some bubbles spread around him then continues to slide along.
"No way! I'll fight him alone!" Solosis laughed while gaining speed.
"Ah! Wait!" Brioche, followed close.
The duo went around the lake once, but noticed nothing unusual "You should go find the read scope while I look out for him, okay?" Fist ask.
"Okay!" Brionne smiles up to Solosis, taking off his backpack and letting near a rock before letting himself slide into the lake.
Inside the lake, Brioche quickly began to swam about, spotting for anything that screams read scope. Despite the current time, the lake was well illuminated thanks to the night sky. He spotted a few orbs, unusual rocks and a sort of large pipe enclosed. Several fish pokemons are just floating by as the Brionne kept exploring...
...Until he spots a Poliwhirl sporting glasses, sleeping on the ground of the lake. Brioche makes way to him,the other quickly opens up his eyes but stand ground. "Um...Excuse me? I was wondering about what you are wearing? Where did you find it?" Brioche ask with a smile, tilting his head.
"Oh these? They fell on my face so they are mine!" The tadpole like pokemon points at his eyes explaining.
"Um...Where exactly? ...And when?" Brioche ask, unsure.
"Today, riiiiiight in this pond! Don't they look amazing on me?" He happily ask.
"Um...I'm sorry, those are Hoothoot's read scope, he needs it to fight..." She explained.
Poliwhirl began to laugh, holding his side. Brionne looks away for a moment before setting his eyes back on him. "A...Hoothoot? Needing glasses? That's stupid! You're stupid! You just want them for yourself!"
"No no!" Brioche waved his fins in front of him. "It's true! He sent a message to the guild he lost it today at this very location!"
"Tough luck!" Poliwhirl drilled into the ground, and quickly assaulted Brioche with a bunch, getting out of the ground. "FINDER'S KEEPER!"
"AHH-" He peeps out, sent flying upward of the water, but quickly spring back toward the Poliwhirl, using his tail to smack the other, knocking the other and sending the read scope off of him. The tadpole respond back by grabbing onto Brioche's tail and swinging him about, spiraling himself before releasing him and sending him flying.
Brionne, disoriented, takes a moment to regain his disposition and heads back toward the Poliwhirl, who got the glasses back on his face. The water seal screams up a sharp cry, letting the other hold the side of his ears and swim away from the sound toward the shoreline.
Brioche knocked up the tadpole, sending him flying outside the water onto the ground...And smacking into a rockruff? As he got out the water to look back, he notices Solosis boastfully laugh while the rocky dog and the tadpole looks at each others.
"WATCH WHERE YOU'RE GOING, CHUMP! WE'RE FIGHTING HERE!" The dog screams at the other who simply give him a weird expression, before giving him a punch to the guts and sending him flying.
"HEY! That was MY target!" Fists says angrily, looking at the beaten up Rockruff. "Now it's like I never laid a finger on him!"
"Fists! He has the read scope and he doesn't want to take it off!" Brioche shouts in a worrying fashion toward the other.
"Ohhhhhhh, that makes sense!" Fists began lunging himself toward the other, using her entire body to wreck some sense into the tadpole before being bitch slapped away, she bounces back onto a tree to continue her relentless assault on the other while Brionne came from behind to send out bubbles behind the other's back, which exploded and harmed the other.
With the two's beating up on the tadpole, it didn't take long for this one to hit up the ground. Brionne happily takes the read scope and examines it. It's stretched by the Poliwhirl's face, however she spew up some water to clean the muddy glasses.
"YAAAAAAAAAY, TWO MISSIONS IN ONE!" Fists lets out. "And it's all thanks to me!" She boasts, laughing.
"Fists, could you take a moment and watch over these read scope? Don't go anywhere, okay?" Brioche ask while trying to pick up Poliwhirl.
"Huh? What are you doing?" Fists ask, confused.
"I'll heal him up, check on Rockruff and make sure he's breathing!" Brioche ask while pulling the other into the water.
Solosis lift a eyebrow toward her companion but goes to the dog. "Hey, are you still up for a fight?" The other is unresponsive but definitely breathing. "Awwwwwwwww..."
Meanwhile Brioche pulled the poliwhirl to the other side of the shore where he left his backpack. He takes up his backpack into his fins and heads toward the water, but not before sending an aqua ring toward the other, healing the tadpole. It doesn't take long for the other to look around and notice his situation.
Brioche quickly swims away toward the other side, making sure his backpack isn't hitting the water at the same time.
At the other side, Fists announces the news. "He's dead!" ...But cracks up and laugh.
"Fists, it's not nice to lie!" Brioche says while heading to the Rockruff's side, putting one fin on his body and watering the rock type.
"Wait, are you finishing him off?" Fists then laugh up again. "No way!"
The Rockruff snarls and tries to bite Brioche's fin, a sharp snap escaping his jaws. He then looks back toward Brioche's expression as he took away his fin. "What the hell? Why did you heal me? It's a fight! Not playing!" He then sat up, glaring at the other. "Hrmph. This isn't what I had in mind."
"Excuse me, but some dingus came and beat you up! We couldn't even finish up the fight properly!" Fists whined.
"I'm sorry but that wasn't very fair of him..." Brioche excuses himself, frowning with a smile.
"No. It's fine! I don't think tonight's the night, it's not even the right place. I can feel it." Rockruff began to walk away. Solosis and Brioche looks at each others.
"Wait, how about another try out?" Fists ask while brioche takes back the read scope into his hands.
"No! I want a real fight!" The dog whined while still walking away. Solosis respond back with a smack to his side.
"No way! You say here and fight!" She screams at the other, who send out rocks to her. Brioche sighs at the sight as the two began to fight again. He places the scope into his backpack before letting it down next to a tree not too far, making sure it's not in sight of prying eyes.
Meanwhile Rockruff used his hind legs to launch sand all over Fists' body, she still manages to see through and rushes toward the other, who knocks her with a headbutt. The two of them presses themselves trying to gain ground, both growling at each others and glaring.
Rockruff suddenly roar, sending the other flying into the air, then looks back at Brioche, who retort at the sight. He flayed his fins about. "Ah! Wait! I'm just watching!" But Rockruff instead rushed at him, his fangs producing electricity. "EEP!" Brioche covers himself with his fins, looking away. Instead he hears a sickening bite. Looking back, Solosis stopped him by receiving the blow, but it broke the liquid around her as sparks and toxins escaped the rock-type before throwing Fists onto the ground.
Brioche quickly respond with a watery slam by his tail on the dog, sending him flying in anger. He goes straight to him, clubbing Rockruff into submission into the ground, relentlessly smacking him away...But then was hit on the back by something.
"OW!" "YEOUCH!"
Two voices came from behind him, he quickly set himself straight watching back who did it. He spots Fists completely changed, but gets hit by Poliwhirl, sending the newly formed Duosion to Brioche's side.
"F-Fists?" He ask, shocked.
"RIGHT FIST!" "LEFT FIST!" Two voices popped out of Duosion. "READY TO FIGHT!" Both screams at the same time, launching herself toward the tadpole, while giving a sort of blink which confuses the assaulted water type before being launched back into the lake. The green blob then makes a sort of green energy ball, sending it straight into the lake, which hit the Poliwhirl...Then start making more and sent them out to him.
Brioche looks down on the Rockruff and rubs his eyes, sighing once more. "...Fine..." She heals him up again. The other jumps back and let his rocks on his neck pokes into the other's skin.
"GAH! I SAID IT WASN'T THE MOMENT!" The other shouts, glaring back at Brionne, who rubbed himself on the area hit.
"I'm sorry, it just my friends really wants to fight." He points back toward Fists, who kept sending balls into the lake.
The Rockruff looks back toward the other. "Gah! This sucks! Why does he get to-" A green ball hit the dog, sending him rolling down the ground.
"It's she!" "LET'S BUMP THIS GUY!" The duo voice says together as Fists approached the other. Forming another ball and sending him off.
"Ah! Wait!" Brioche came between the two, raising her two fins up toward Fists. "It's meant to be a friendly fight! Not a fight to the death! Fists! You can't force a evolution out of someone!" He turns back toward the dog. "You! I'm sorry for my friend!"
"Coward." The other says to Brioche, who simply put his fins back together and tilt his head, frowning with a smile.
"It's not that, I've beaten you up to a pulp but I kept healing you. I'm not a coward, I simply want to- EEP!" He hid himself as Rockruff snarled, electricity getting into his jaws again. Duosion quickly bumped into the dog while the other tried to land a bite, this time Fists kept using psychic moves to disorientate and weaken the dog at the same time of using her entire body to knock him up.
"Nobody touches my friend!" "A cute friend at that!" The two voices let out as Rockruff hits once more the ground.
"Awww, thank you!" Brioche blushes at the comment.
"Now for the finishing touch!" "Yeah!" Duosion's body enveloped itself in a psychic glaze, backing herself away from the dog before lunging straight at him.
"WAIT!" Brioche jumps over, receiving the full blow from Fists, rolling on the ground and smacking against a tree, yelping up.
"HEY!" "STUPID, DON'T DO THAT!" Fists let out at the same time, glaring back at Brioche...Except he was unresponsive. Duosion looks around, seeing what she just caused. "...Oh..." "We beat up everyone, did we?" "Yeah!" "But what about Brioche?" "Ummmmm..." "What did mom say about these situations? Pain split?" "No, we can't use that yet! We're too weak!" "Weak my toxins! Let's wake Brioche up!" Duosion came near to Brioche and start pushing him. "Excuse us." "We really didn't mean to do that!"
Brioche kept silent as he gets pushed about. "Is he faking it?" "he's faking it!" Duosion came to conclusion.
"Awww..." Brioche spread some water on herself, healing the bruises that was left from the impact, then set himself straight. "Fists, you've done an amazing job! But please be more considerate for what should be a friendly fight!" Brionne begs while lowering his snout toward the other.
"Which fist? Left or right?" "Because that's makes a whole lot of different!" The other voice chuckled.
"Both? This is gonna be weird, but I'm glad you two are fine! I thought you were a goner at the electric bite!" Brioche spreads his fins as a hug, but then recalls his friend's toxins are in the way. He quickly set them back to his side. "We should head back to the guild and bring back the read scope!" He explained while heading back for his backpack, getting it on his back.
"But what about Rockruff?"
"But what about Poliwhirl?"
The two voices said in unison.
"Don't worry about them! I'm sure they'll be fine." Brionne smiles up to her before taking the badge off his bandanna and forwarding it to Duosion. "See you on the other side!"
Fists gets send out into the happy tree. Brioche kept smiling before the other disappearing. He looks around, then sight, wiping off the smile off his face while looking at Rockruff. He let his backpack down and head into the water to heal the beaten up Poliwhirl with two aqua ring, getting off his sight before he wakes up.
Brioche takes back the backpack, then does the same to Rockruff, who tried once more to bite around him, then notices Brioche.
"Sorry about what happened! I hope you evolve soon! I'll be heading to the base so if you'd like to hitch a ride to it, you can! ...And you can join the trainees if you'd like! I bet they're all beating each others up so maybe you'll get a good opponent!" Brioche smiles up to him.
"Trainees? Wait, they really beat each others at that big tree? I thought it was all loser stuff!" Rockruff ask, unsure.
"Yep! You can even go as strong as you'd like! They got healers to fix any damage you've got, much like my aqua rings!"
Rockruff looks down, then looks back to Brioche. He grins. "Yeah! That should be fun!" He rushes toward the other, jumping right into the badge. In a fraction of a second, a flash of light enveloped the puppy and sent him out to the guild.
Brioche then places his own fin on the top of the badge, teleporting out. However, something hits him up from the back.

"But you have to swear this time you'll enter the house! That's the only way you'll get in!" Flame explained as the two of them forward toward their next destination. Flame's ear began to twitch.
"No, no, it's not that...Don't you find it scary too? Getting inside a stranger's home?" Destiny ask.
"But you said it was out of sheer courtesy last time!" Flame rose up his arms, confused.
"Yeah but...It's still pretty scary when you think about it. You saw that Vigoroth's size? What if he attacks us while inside? Or worse?" Destiny ask in a panic.
"You worry too much! Beside pokemons ask for help! I don't think someone would purposely make an announcement JUST to munch on someone! It's possible but it's very silly because you usually need information on who comes to see you first, or who you are seeing!" Flame explained.
"Ugh...This is just so weird...And-Why do I hear music?" Destiny's ears twitch.
"Oh man! You have NO IDEA! It's gonna be AMAZING!" Flame began to run toward the sound.
"AH WAIT!" Destiny rushed to his side.
The two of them got to a house...Guitars, drums, singing death metal, a bunch of Toxcricity hanging about outside. Behind the house appears to be a whole band playing for several different types of pokemons.
"HUH?" Destiny was absolutely shocked. Her eyes widen at what should be a normal band in her world, but sound absolutely like what it should be, except they're all pokemons playing the music. The whole house appears to be covered in bulbs of light of different colors, almost akin to christmas light. The windows emanated a strong light.
Flame made way through the little crowd and went to the door, knocking it up. Destiny meekly got near to Flame, pressing her ears down. "How do you handle this music?" She looks back up to his ears.
"I said it, didn't I? I'll just fix my ears later!" Teased Flame while loudly knocking on the door. A low amp Toxcricity with a Toxel in hands opens it up.
"Yeah?" The electric type ask.
"D'AWWWWWWWWWW!" Destiny let out at the Toxel, eyes sparkling. "He's so cuuuuuuuuuuuuuuute!"
"It's a she. You here for the party?"
"Actually, we came for this!" Flame gives the paper to the other, who picks it up with one hand and read it.
"Hmhm. I'm not the owner of this place, but go on. Beer's in the fridge, do yourself home." She gives back the paper to Flame then points toward the entry while explaining. She then let the door open, rejoining others at a couch and start laughing up at another Toxtricity putting a cardboard box over his head.
"Did she say Fridge?" Destiny ask while Flame entered the house, getting his hands on the side of the door.
"Come on, Destiny! This house needs you!" Flame forwards a hand toward the entry.
"Ugh..." She meekly stepped in before Flame shuts down the door.
"Follow me!" Flame made way through the party goers dancing, a mix of toxcricities strumming it up along the beat, some toxels at the living house playing with each others along with some grookeys, igglybuffs, popplios and others babymons.
Flame keep looking around the first floor for the basement. "Hey, you're the kid of Lavastorm?" One of the Toxtricity ask to him, one per at hand.
"Nope! Ace and Cinder!" Flame proudly says while Destiny kept looking around nearby of him.
"Hey, put it in there!" The man says while squatting, putting one hand in front of him. Flame gladly clap it with one hand. "And who's the girl? Can I use her breathe for a moment?" He ask while shaking his beer about.
"Yep! Destiny! Breathe on the man's beer!" Flame ask with a smile toward her, she keep look around not hearing what just said. Flame pokes her as she jumps over, but then he points toward the man, who shook his beer at her. She tilted her head while Flame shouts at her ear what to do, she retort back with one eye closed, but goes to the beer and breathe on it.
"Thanks, girl!" He smiles to her and pat her head before getting up and drinking his beer.
"I'm not a dog!" She shouts, but the other couldn't hear well.
Flame then pushed destiny before pointing forward. Not too soon and they find a set of stairs heading down. They head downward and find a bar with a dance floor, plenty of pokemons just dancing it up while others takes a drink while a old looking toxtricity prepared drinks. Destiny stood there mouth agape while Flame gets up on one of the bar's stool, barely managing to get on, then happily gets up to look back at the servicing man.
"Yeah? What will you take, kid? We got sugary drinks for your kind."
"Actually, I'm here for this!" Flame happily slaps down a paper, the old man takes it up and read it.
"...Yeah, I can help you out with that. You got a ice type with you?" Flame nods, pointing toward destiny. The man got off his bar, and beckons the other two to follow. Flame picks up the paper and forward it into his bag before following the other. The Toxtricity opened up a door leading to another flight of stairs. Flame happily got forward while Destiny looks back, unsure.
"What's up with the girl?" The electric type looks back toward Flame.
"She's new! And shy!" Flame comes back to her and pushes her toward the stairs. "Come on! We're just gonna cool down a room!"
"Fine...Fine! But you go first? Okay?" She ask, Flame happily gets inside and goes down the stairs. With a sigh Destiny followed while the man awaiting. As they both got down the room, the door got closed, making a somewhat stern change for the volume of the music.
As they got down, it appears to be a sort of cave with plenty of beer lying around, some meat hanging on the wall and a sort of putrid toxic smell coming from a large poodle of water. The area was lit up with light bulb "Sorry about the shithole's smell. Feel free to use it." The man points at the puddle, both Flame and Destiny got disgusted at the sight. However, Destiny looks back up at the man.
"Um, I need to ask...How come you guys have electricity?" She points at the light bulbs while looking up at the eletric type.
"You don't know? It's a technology in development, my son ordered a bunch of stuff that works with it and he's planning to modernize happy town with it. Shouldn't take too long unless the forest ghosts has their say. If you go all the way upstairs you should find some people taking turn charging the house."
"WOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOAH!" Flame let out, eyes shining, but shuts his mouth from the stench.
"So how cold do you want the room? Destiny ask.
"As cold as you want, don't worry about the bulbs, just freeze the whole thing up."
Destiny forward herself lightly toward the room, and start blasting a freezing beam around, it doesn't take long for the whole basement to look like a winter wonderland.
"Attagirl! That's pretty good! Kid, do you have a pen? I'll sign your paper and you can give it at the guild, they'll understand." Flames gladly picks up his pen and paper, passing it to the man who signs it in the back, making a sort of crest.
"You two can hang out and enjoy the party. The kids upstairs could use some company- No offense." He passes over the completed paper to Flame along with the pen.
"None taken!" Flame gladly chimes.
"Um- Actually we should head back to the guild. I'm sure the others are awaiting!" Destiny ask.
"But Destiny...! Pleeeeeeeeeeeease?" Flame takes a begging position toward her. She rolls her eyes and let out a sigh.
"Fine..."
"YES!" Flame raises up his arms in the air happily.
