Organized Trade: Sandy and Haven

[Kataya]

Trade

------------------

Do I feel like I'm doing the right thing? Sandy wandered through the trade center doors, as she had done so many times before, pondering through her thoughts. Behind her, sprinted in an adorable small blue and white squirrel creature, who ducked under her legs and weaved in and out of the crowds of people. After her, came a rather large fire rat, one that she would always affectionately refer to as Munch. He was rather large for his species, showing how close he was to evolution. It seemed a far was off, but he was proud of himself.

<<It doesn't seem like Purin has a problem with it.>> Munchy commented bluntly as he watched the rat dart around through the legs of many slightly annoyed traders. Sandy sat down on one of the benches and sighed. Though Raine had turned to the side of Team Rocket, she had been forced to give up all of her ambitions when their Grandma had forced her back to Mahogany town. That left Sandy with all of her Pokemon.

Though Elm had been overwhelmed with the arrival of so many, and he begged Sandy to find a new place for at least one. Finding Purin the easiest one to advertise, the girl had done just that, and received a response from a credible girl almost right away. She had spoken to her briefly over the phone, and she offered her Purin for a low price of £1oo. Price didn't matter to her, as long as Purin went to someone good. She sighed as Munchy curled onto her lap, and she awaited the arrival of this buyer.

[Haven Annette Willsworth]

Entering the Trade Center for the very first time, Haven felt a sense of uneasiness. She never enjoyed feeling out of her element, and with tons of Trainers and Pokemon bounding around everywhere, Haven felt like she'd end up stepping on one of them. But Haven wasn't really worried about that, as there was something else troubling her, something weighing heavily on her mind.

She was going about an ad she had seen, about a Pachirisu being sold for just 100 poke. Haven couldn't refuse, and with her secret love of Electric-type Pokemon, it was an offer that was really too good to be true. She had the 100 Poke clutched tightly in her hand, and she was so lost that it wasn't even funny.

"I'd be more than happy to buy the Pachirisu, if I can ever find where that bench is..." Haven continued on, flustered and lost out of her mind, feeling a bit scared even. She clutched an empty Poke'ball, just in case she would need it for the Pachirisu, and continued on walking.

Eventually, she found where the bench was, and approached the trainer sitting there with caution. She made sure she was still holding onto both the money and the empty Poke'ball, and then she spoke. "Um.. I saw the ad for your Pachirisu, and I'd be more than happy to buy the cute lil' guy~!"

Sandy was snapped out of her thoughts as the girl in question appeared in front of her. She offered her a shy, gentle smile as she stood up, offering her hand to shake. Munchy sat up, but didn't make much of an effort to greet the newcomer.

"Hey, it's nice to meet you...Haven, is it? We spoke over the phone. I could have transferred her through the lab but thank you for coming out here to meet me!" She glanced around, trying to find the white and blue rodent among the crowd.

"Munch, did you see which way Purin went?" Sandy questioned with a wayward glance over her shoulder. Munchy looked up at her and gave a shrug.

<<I don't know. Want me to blow something up to get her attention?>> A meaningful, non-threatening glare from Sandy told him she had understood his tone, and he kept himself from snickering.

"Purin!" In moments, the energy-filled creature flew onto Sandy's shoulder, Nuzzling against her face. Sandy giggled and finally dislodged the gentle creature from her shoulder, holding her up for Haven to see.

"Alright, well, here she is. She's very healthy, and she loves to run around, so she'll need open space...of course that'll be no Problem for you since you're a trainer too." She placed Purin back onto her shoulder, and held out her arm so the the rodent could scurry down in towards Haven.

"Go ahead and let her get to meet you. I just want to get her a good trainer so selling her for as much as I am isn't a matter to me." Sandy promised, watching Purin as she seemed to be waiting for an open invite onto Haven's shoulder.

Pachirisu
Name: Purin
Gender: Female
Level: 16
Attacks: Spark, Thunderbolt, Quick Attack, Charm
Ability: Pickup
Nature/Personality: Purin likes eating...a lot, so you'll often find her going through your bags for food, yet with all the energetic running around she does, she manages to stay pretty fit.

[Haven Annette Willsworth]

As Purin returned to her Trainer, Haven smiled. The young Pachirisu seemed to have a lot of energy, which was something that Haven liked. She could see Purin becoming a powerful member of her team. "Well, I really like Pachirisu's energy, for one, she'd be very happy as most of my team has lots of energy as well."

Haven extended her arm, allowing Purin to crawl up it and onto her shoulder. "Hey there, Purin!" Haven said, patting the young squirrel on her head. "Would you like to come with us?"

In a flash of white light, Caramelfeather appeared out of her Poke'ball and growled. "Pup! (I don't think that little... chipmunk is the right choice for a member of my Master's team.)" Purin turned to look at Caramelfeather.

"Pach! Pachi! (I'm already on your 'Master's' shoulder! Of course, I'll make it into your team! ^_^ Besides, look at me, I'm adorable and strong!" Caramelfeather scoffed and turned her head. "Lilli. (Please. I'm her favorite, and some rodent won't change that. Got it?)"

Haven took out a Poke'ball from her bag. "Hey sweetie, would you like to come along with us?" Haven put the Poke'ball next to Purin, an open invitation for the young Pachirisu to jump in.

Purin glanced at the Pokeball and poked it, but it only popped open, no light to suck her in. Purin's tail twitched as she tried to figure out what the heck had happened. She bolted back onto Sandy's shoulder, seeming to want to know what had happened.

"Oh, yeah, it doesn't work like that in this kind of trade Miss Haven." She took Purin's Pokeball from her bag and moved over to a table with a machine on it. She pointed the ball at Purin and recalled her. She then placed the Pokeball onto the machine and started to punch things into the keypad on it. Munchy cracked one eye open to glance at the Lillipup.

<<It's no use fighting with her. She'll shock you to a crisp. You're much weaker than her, I can smell it.>> His voice mentioned bluntly, his gaze seeming to challenge her to even try and pick a fight with him. Sandy noticed this look and let out a soft whistle.

"Munch, none of that." she said, a sternness entering her voice she normally only took up with her Pokemon. Munchy gave a snort and sprawled out by her feet, closing his eyes. Once the Machine was done, Sandy took the Pokeball out and offered it to Haven.

"There we go. All you have to do is give me the money and we're set!" Sandy mentioned cheerfully. "That Machine put her in your possession, so she'll know who her new trainer is." Sandy promised, looking down for only a moment as Munchy rolled over.

[Haven Annette Willsworth]

As nothing happened whenever Purin poked at the Poke'ball, a feeling of confusion flowed throughout Haven. She was slightly confused, but there was a part of her that knew what was going on. She couldn't believe she had forgotten it-- Purin HAD a trainer, so obviously Purin already had a specific Poke'ball assigned to her!

As Sandy placed Purin, already inside her Poke'ball, into the transfer machine, Haven stared in awe. Sandy was pressing buttons faster than Haven had ever seen before, and Haven didn't know what half of those buttons did, let alone what they said, or how in the world Sandy possibly knew what she was doing.

Caramelfeather heard this challenge from Munchy and scoffed. (What? You think that rodent's TOUGHER than me? Don't make me laugh, because I'll beat that brat into Purin Puree.)

Haven then stared at Purin's Poke'ball, now on her side of the trade machine. She couldn't believe that Purin now belonged to her, and that she was finally getting to add an Electric-type member to her team. She picked up the Poke'ball and examined it for a moment, then thought about throwing it into the air. She decided against that, mainly because of all the people around. And Haven knew how sometimes, energetic Pokemon liked to run about and get lost.

Haven smiled and bowed to Sandy. "Thank you so much, for everything, seriously. If you ever decide you want Purin back, feel free to tell me, because I'll be more than happy! Maybe.. Purin's so cute I might get too attached!"
