Upon flashing her badge, the IPF members hesitated. "Are you undercover?" asked one, before getting elbowed by the other. "She could still the thief and that's just a fake badge," hissed his partner before clearing his throat. "Ma'am, I am going to have to ask you to come with us. We will run your ID number through the system. Apologies for the inconvenience, but we have to be cautious." The other officer would come forward to handcuff the collector, who thrashed a bit, claiming that Aphrodite was the one who stole the egg, not him! The officers were clearly...dubious. Uncertain of who to trust. After all, despite the badge flashing, Aphrodite was the one in possession of the egg. However, there was no proving her identity without running the numbers on the badge, which the pair didn't look like they were about to do onsite. In fact, unless Aphrodite resisted arrest, she would find herself handcuffed as well as they talked about confirming her story back at the station. And how even if she was an officer, they couldn't be sure she wasn't involved the robbery until they spoke to the victims who saw the thief run off with the egg.
The officers don't believe you! Will Aphrodite surrender quietly or stand her ground and battle?

Aphrodite was completely taken aback and offended by the IPF officers, because they did not seem to believe that she is a member of the force. Although she was not in uniform, she figured that her badge would have been more than enough to plead her case. "Are you serious, right now? We have two wrong doers standing over there and you're thinking that I'm the one that's responsible for all of this? I should call the Captain right now and get this taken care of," she told them. Clearly, not happy with their response to her.
Aphrodite shook her head. "No, I can't do it. I promised that couple at the Day Care Center that I would return their Pokemon Egg and I plan to do just that. It is my duty as a member of the IPF. Believe it or not. I will prove that I am a true member of the force by defeating you in a Pokemon battle." Aphrodite challenged them, tossing two Poke Ball onto the battlefield. Her Gallade majestic Gallade would make a return alongside her adorable Brionne. Once the officers released their Pokemon, Aphrodite would give her commands to her Pokemon. "Low Sweep and Bubble Beam!"
Raina (Brionne) used Bubble Beam on Growlithe. Alvaro (Gallade) used Low Sweep of Herdier.

The officers were simply trying to do their job, they understood that she had a badge but with what the couple had said they didn't know who the egg thief was exactly. The badge that the woman presented could have been a fake, or at worst stolen! The officers had no choice but to take the woman with them and run her badge number to confirm. They had at least arrested the Collector, but it seemed that the actual thief might have snuck off during the fight with the collector and the IPF officers showing up. "Don't cause a scene, just let us take you back." One officer tried but it seemed nothing would happen until the battle was completed. So the two officers threw their pokemon and Aphrodite her own. It was, a complete massacre the officer's pokemon didn't even get a chance to move as they were both fainted immediately by the stronger pokemon in speed and strength. "J-Just because you have strong pokemon doesn't mean you're a member." The first one managed, but it is the second that shakes their head. It wasn't like they had more pokemon they couldn't force her to stay. "Alright, so maybe you are an IPF member, if you are so intent on returning the egg then please come with us." the second said as they held onto the collector and lead back to the old couple. It is upon returning to the daycare that the couple is overjoyed that Aphrodite is returning with the egg. "You found it!" The older gentleman speaks. It is the IPF officer that speaks next, asking the couple if they had asked Aphrodite to find the egg. Quickly it is the older lady that speaks on Aphrodite's behalf. "That's correct, this young lady was so kind and willing to help us out by chasing down that thief." The two officers look at each other and then back to Aphrodite. "We are terribly sorry for mistaking you for the egg thieves! Please take this as our apology." The bigger man offers over the TM83 Work Up and while one takes the collector back to the station the other heads back into the woods hoping to catch the missing thief that had managed to escape during the mix-up. It is the couple that once more looks at Aphrodite with kind smiles on their faces. "Thank you so much again, but thinking about it perhaps the egg would be better with you miss." the older gentleman says. The woman nods after the older man, "Please take care of the egg." Raina gained 500 exp! (20x50) for 1500/2269 exp! Alvaro gained 1500 exp due to exp share (20x50) + 500 exp for 1950/2107 exp!

After defeating her follow IPF team members, Aphrodite still found that the duo was still not fully believing that she is a member of the team. "This is ridiculous," she hissed, shaking her head out of frustration. She never imagined that she would be treated like a criminal while being a part of the IPF and having a badge to show for it. The duo kept making comments about them simply doing their job, but there has to be a better right for them to do than to place blame on her, right?
Inhaling and exhaling a few breathes, Aphrodite would calm down herself down before following the officers back to the Pokemon Day Care Center. Luckily for her, the couple did not hesitate with informing the officers about her willingness to help them secure the Pokémon egg. She thanked them before turning her attention back to the officers with a "I told you so" kind of expression shown over her face. "Yeah, sure. Thank you." She replied back to the one officer that gifted her with a small token. She did not have anything else to say to them at this point.
Aphrodite's expression and attitude later soften when the elder couple suggested that she takes care of the mysterious Pokémon Egg. "Thank you, I will take great care of it. Maybe when it hatches, I will make another stop by here so that you two can see what it hatched into," she smiled, carefully taking the egg inside of her arms. She would make a more small talk with them before leaving the Day Care Center and heading towards the Pokemon Center.
Done!

Going to reward this as if it was the IPF version, since it's not your fault you started this one a few months before the other went live. Aphrodite gets 10 merits for finishing the quest! (and no deduction as she refused the bribe ![:P](//storage.proboards.com/2475952/images/j4x3M6WbsBpReeVALlIv.png) ) Bonus merits: +1 for empathy in the first post, towards the daycare couple. +1 for character judgement towards the henchman thief. +1 for showing badge to police officers in an attempt to avoid a battle. I didn't really see any negotiations, poke me if you disagree and think I have missed something ^^ so a total of 13 merits rewarded for the quest. ❤ Aphrodite ❤
