Chapter Four—Interrogation & Doc
His luck always seemed to be diminished and random at times like usual, the Riolu basically up against two Pro Guild-members, sitting in-front of him, he didn't exactly have much of a choice or couldn't do much against the two, he was cornered, and he felt nervous and hated the feeling, the question's made enough to start to sweat, and he couldn't do much, only perhaps just make the truth unclear, and speaking up in a normal tone, hoping to not act or say anything suspicious, "Time Gear? I say I wouldn't wish to convey havoc a-long in this world, anywhere exactly, why thy' suspicious? I'm quite confuse thy' two convict me of crimes, and I indeed have knowledge of that Tower, however, I am unable to reach it, or would want to even traverse." He did honestly didn't wish to well, petrify the whole planet at all, or bring trouble, keeping his answers not too clarified or cleared, and been confused himself why he was brought there in the first place, and realizing his mistake of knowing how to get to the Tower was a grave mistake, only bringing more question's.
The Luxio quickly having taken advantage of this before he could even respond, "That's good enough to bring him to the Sheriff, right Cady? So, come on now, we'll be escorting you to him, and we'll figure out if Dusknoir had sent you or not." Having quickly already ruled out that he was sent from the future or something else, the Eeveelution disliking how they assumed he was going after the Time Gears, or one, but it was for the planet, which the Riolu had sighed out softly in defeat, standing up, before being shoved back however, "Sorry darling! But as a doctor, I must refuse greatly! He stay's here completely, until he recovers, no exceptions or excuses!" She said, less friendly, and having stood in front of him, with her small arms crossed, which brought the attention of the two-Hero Pokémon. "Wha-? But he's a criminal and could cause the world to be petrified! And he has a Time Gear somewhere!" They countered, though the Flaaffy hadn't moved at all, and with the Vaporeon finally speaking, "Uhm, he is correct, and we shouldn't waste much time either, but why defend him? You two know eachother or?" She questioned mostly upon their relationship.
"As a Doctor I must've not allowed a single one of my patients to leave without being rested, and watched over, by me. Worlds dangerous criminal or not, I shall not allow anyone or anything to happen to them, a true doctor is to heal anyone in need, regardless if awarded or not, and I will not let any silly beliefs, make me handover anyone or anything! And why assume this young Youngster can even destroy or bring trouble?" The small but fluffy Pokémon had ranted within anger, looking down at the two. "But despite not knowing this stranger, I have do not think he cannot do it all by himself, and cause such boiling of chaos."
The Luxio was mostly seemingly annoyed by this, even though she was correct, but putting the world in danger for the health of this Riolu seemed silly, and weird that she took a non-movable neutral point, "..We'll be back then, for him, though, within a two days, if we notice him out of the house or you, we'll be taking him for ourselves. And also, don't think you're off the hook just because your bed-ridden." Snarled the Luxio, before having quickly left the room and the cabin too, with the feminine partner, who had only waved at them softly, and once they were gone, the female Flaaffy sighed out softly and had then fell aside on the bed with the Riolu. "Mmh, oh deary-deary. That was a close one, especially since I'm feeling quite tired from all of this, say, what's your name, if I deserve such honor, and I don't really think you'd do such a thing, and they did not have any evidence either"
His name, he wasn't exactly sure if he should give her his name, but he was saved from those two from her, and didn't question him much oddly, ".. I go by Reynard, I guess, tis' confusing for you to risk helping me, and arguing with those two, but they might label you too as a criminal." Having pointed out, though they had shrugged, "Mmh, well it's my job still as a doctor, and I'll be fine deary. My name is Vivian!" Chirping out softly with a smile, and having then quickly leaned up against the Riolu, and snoring out with her eyes closed, passing out without much of a warning, probably exhausted from going through that forest she mentioned, and rest did indeed sound nice, following after her
East from the entire town, through a grass plains valley, leading up to the Shaymin Village, and Sky Peak, miles away from it, a large Tavern was built a-long the road, at the half-way point, the road leading to the village, to act as a resting point and probably to gain large amounts of Poké easily from travelers, and some of the natives too, built mainly of wood, and stone, going up two-story's high, the roof covered in large amounts of snow, and having snowed heavily up on the mountain, the sky was covered in puffy-grey clouds, keeping away the sun too!
As a Audino had opened up the door, and entered, not wearing anything surprisingly, only carrying a large bag with them, and her fur and more bright and colorful body, that most Audinos had was more light, humming to herself softly, bringing the attention of a working Timburr behind the counter of the Tavern, front of it had stools which she had quickly headed to and sat up on, hearing the sound of the wooden door opening and closing behind, though they were currently cleaning up a mug with a dripping cloth as they had their eyes closed, multiple wooden tables, chairs, other Pokémon were inside, the place seemingly packed, drinking away with wooden mugs, and hearty laughing could be heard, the place was rather more larger inside, even a stage to the left of it, as singing played inside the booming active Tavern, in the distant and a staircase leading up and down too, perhaps even able to fit a Charizard!
"Welcome to the Braixen's Brew! How may we help you today? Directions, a bed, or food, even certain ales or drinks? What we have currently we may serve to you!" They had opened a single eye seeing whoever it was, that entered, "Oh! Welcome Doc! Didn't know it was you, been sometime we've seen you around, what brings you here?" She asked, tilting her head softly, as the Audino spoke out softly, seemingly soundly childish, "Just checking what's new on the wanted poster! I'm curious to see what you have now, and also I'll have some Oran juice!" She said somewhat cheerfully.
Placing the bag, which was rather large, noticeably, on the counter, and opening it, revealing around what could be estimated about, six-thousand Poké?, a few evolutionar stones even. Which brought the eyes of customers and some other workers around,
"I had some free-time! So I decided to go on a few missions! Been too long since I've been in one, but uh, sorry if this isn't enough for the last events that occurred, I can do more, if you'd like?.." Recalling such events, involving a Charizard and it being slammed into the Tavern, and having pushed it towards the Timburr, which theirs eyes seemingly glowed like stars, happiness really. at the sight of the large Poké presented, "Nonsense! This seems like overpay! But the next few times you visit, including right now, it'll be on the house!" She said, before having carried it eagerly, heading to the back of the Tavern, "Pala get her some of our best Oran berries please!" She said to the Politoad, as she passed one of her workers, which quickly went to work, as she sat alone, and the large quantity of money and evolutionary stones had brought attention to most of the bar afterwards, it was actually surprising she hadn't gotten robbed at all, or even injured the way up, even how she carried it seemingly alone.
Without much word, a Pokémon had sat beside her, wearing a bright-white scarf, covering their mouth and cheeks, and having a long skinny body, the ears tips were covered in cream, moderate-sized brown rings going down its body, it didn't take much for her to realize it was a Furret. Which seemed and looked friendly, "Hiya new friend!" It squeaked out softly, "What brings you here exactly, and haven't seen your face before." He asked, as she looked at him, innocently tilting her head. "Not much, just really wanting to get back with exploring Dungeons and I always check in here, for wanted criminals, and bring them back to my base." She said softly, her eyes having some bags underneath them, probably stayed up to do some of the missions she said earlier. "You're with the Expedition society then? Or an official Exploration team?" He asked, asking in curiosity.
He asked a simple question, and was now curious of the Audino that was an inch or two smaller then him, his team had been intrigued and was curious from the moment she entered here, a Mismagius, and an Absol with more rougher fur, and a , maybe it took days, or weeks even to get that amount, needless to say, if they could get her, and potentially raid the base, maybe get a few decent items or so, and his team weren't exactly a 'Exploration team' materiel, he was hoping to get more information out of the naïve Audino, "Nope~! I've created my own, I suppose? Though not officially, but we're managing through and have our own shops and small economy too!" Too good of a deal to pass, that meant they could probably pull in more! His partners, which had sat nearby him, lighted up, maybe taking hostage of this Audino could get them various items! Maybe kick them out of the place, since they weren't an official guild, they could easily 'visited them', without having anyone tracing them, since they were quite far away from a Official Guild that would investigate the problem.
He looked at his partners and had given them a simple wink, readying now to take this plan in action, she seems like a rookie even!, "That sounds really nice friend! Lets go now, so we can talk more about this in private and my friends will come along too! We'll have a 'fun' time!'" Giving her a soft fake smile, boy was he hating pretending to be happy and friendly, as she was drinking away the mug that had been filled with the rich-Oran berries, that was delivered a minute ago, as they idly chattered, as the female Timburr finally arrived. "Sorry for the delay! Skarmory was delayed with his delivery through the back, but we got some new reference for who we got for our criminals, they usually deliver here first, since it gives them a break, and its located closely to the middle of this continent, before heading to anyone else, funnily enough, takes two or three days, to get everywhere." They said, going through the empty door-frame, having carried a decent pile of papers in their arms, and having laid out five, "We got our first here, the most dangerous, according to what authorities said, they're really unknown, and strike without a word or warning, a few glimpses though what their appearance is, to any Exploration team that goes nearby these folks, or is spotted in a dungeon, is basically doomed. We've had a rumor they have a hidden hideout and an actual team, but we don't know what it is or where, even who, we just call them, the Renegade of Karma, since it's sort of like luck betrays whoever approaches them, and the knocked-out teams barely remember anything before entering a room or much, and I've heard entire teams of four, up to six even, and I think it might relate to someone, that had been reported stealing a Time Gear, an 'Illusionist' they said."
They had calmly said, shrugging their shoulder, "Rewards fifteen-thousand Poké, apparently the guild members who were knocked out been looted, hard to tell if somethings stolen or lost in the dungeon if done by someone. Or uh, searched through, a few had their items taken, and are the one's putting they're Chansey's eggs in one bask, hoping someone can get them, probably to get revenge for all the lost progress and stuff that was gone, maybe their safety too, and there's only a twenty-five reduction for guild members all across the continent, I think, so everyone's going to probably get frenzy for our mysterious stranger, been happening for two weeks apparently, I'm certain you can do this, Doc. But this is more of an open to public citizens oddly enough."
As she took a small break for her breath, before continuing, "The second one is a lunatic Typhlosion, with a scar somewhere on them, male, four-thousand, third a Flareon, female, their names 'Ray' apparently, worth- You get the point, and I think you'll just review them later, either way, I'll be posting the extras in a day or so."
The team that had overheard that the large amount of Poké was going off, to anyone in the continent, was strange but the reward sounded perfect, able to not get reduced to a mere one thousand-five-hundred Poké, was perhaps the biggest haul yet! Well to them, but they'd first hit the Audino, get those posters, and get this mysterious team or stranger, and others too, a HUGE bonus, with extra time too! As she had taken the posters, rolling it up, and stuffing it in her puffy, white tuff of a tail she had for, not really having a container or anything, "Sounds like fun! I think I'll attempt at this mysterious fast figure first, and sorry sir, but we don't really allow anyone to join our guild, special requirements needed. And I'll be staying here, for tonight, so you guys might be too busy, to stay here as well."
Saying softly, and the male Furret there, was very disappointed however, and looking more irritated, and she was correct indeed, they hadn't graduated and needed to get back soon as possible to the Guild, and finish up assisting a Shaymin, within at least Twenty hours, at her choice. "O-Oh? He-he, well I sadly didn't say it wasn't much of a choice exactly, now did I? Now please hand over those papers, or else me and my friends will not hesitate to attack." Whispering it to her there, and having been left alone the, the Timburr, leaving to attend to the others, as the Audino giggled playfully, with her eyes closed, "I couldd.. But what if I don't wanna?" She asked, and had flicked gently at his nose, which received an immediate response of his own fore-paw, Brick Break, being lighted up and slashed down upon the playful Pokémon, which would connect, but it didn't, she had leaned her stool back purposely, only to connect to his partner, the Absol, and having slammed his body down upon the wooden floor and breaking the stool itself, as she had leaned forward then.
"That was fun! And oh-oh! Your wanting to play?" She asked, though the annoyed Furret had quickly swiped again, twice, diagonally and sideways, but only breaking the stool, as she used as a mere shield, the Absol somehow with-stand the fighting-type move, and sat up dazed, by now, being checked up on by the Mismagius, the whole bar got they're attention. One; From the fact of wood splintering and breaking, including a body heavily hitting the floor, upon the unfortunate Absol, and now the fact that an Audino was quickly avoiding each attack of the angered Furret, who was quickly chasing them, not caring the fact if the fighting-moves were going to hit an innocent or object, breaking a few tables, and chairs, as they roared, "Stand still you darn weak Magickarp! And give me those wanted posters, before I decide to actually start hurting you!"
As conveniently, some actual guild members, that were inside, passing by, were about to step in, a Raichu, Wartortle, and a Kirlia, as the familiar Timbur, was watching from the side-lines, as the electric mouse spoke up, "I swear those idiots are literally ruining our reputation, shall we intervene?" But quickly interrupted by the female fighting-type, "Now hold your Ponytas, rushing in there is dumb, and dangerous enough, not with her involved, just watch, unless you really want be mistaken for wanting to 'play' with her, I'd rather have not another incident like with darn stubborn, flirty Charizard..."
Following up with the fight, now, her ears perked up, being compared to a Magickarp seemed too annoy her and caught her attention, "A Magickarp, what's that? And my turn now!" Giggling out, an having managed to be in the middle of the room, on the top of a table, a sort-a horde of customers surrounded them, a few yelling who would win, and to go all out and more, probably most of them betted upon the hot-headed Furret. She actually didn't move, as he had released his final Break Brick, upon her, catching it with her left-paw, probably crushing it too by accident, "First rule of battling! Never leave yourself exposed or too predictable, using your environment can be helpful too!" She had stated, before then bringing her right paw all the way back and quickly releasing it to him, a simple punch, within less of a second they were launched to the other side of the room, hitting the wall with a loud slam, as she had giggle, "Sorry friend! I didn't suspect you to not be so ready! And who else wants to play?" She asked, looking around the room curiously of the customers, before averting to his two comrades, "You two can join in! Your friend seemed to have fun!"
Author notes!: Whoo-whee, we gotta an overpowered foe or ally here! And lets hope they don't cause more trouble! We already got someone doing so, and funny enough, it snowed when I was typing this! And couldn't think of a better name, sorry!
