Chapter 2
Jae stood in the empty field on which they had waited earlier, looking around restlessly. The grass rippled in the wind, which picked up her lab coat and sent a chill down her spine. Jae cursed under her breath as she wrapped the coat tighter, hating this place more by the second.
In her large pockets, the bulge which was her Pokemon egg could clearly be seen, the orange top glinting slightly in the sun. She placed her hand in the pocket and felt the egg's shell. Just hatch already, will you? Her impatience was unrivalled, and waiting for something that could take so long was how she defined torture.
---------
Okay, I stand corrected. This is torture. Jae looked up at Sir Derek with complete disgust when he announced the jobs they'd have to do.
"Harvesting? No way! I'm not playing servant for the likes of some stuck-up farmers!" Jae spat, her eyes glaring furiously.
"And then you want the others to cook the food? You actually think they're capable of that?" Jae's mind was set back to the rumours she'd heard about her fellow 'criminals'.
"You better not be thinking of putting the culinary crackpot in the kitchen! He tried it once, who's to say he won't poison us lot as well?"
As it turned out, the poison-pinhead was the only guy with them, and he was on gardening duty with Jae. Maybe Sir Derek deserved a little credit for that. The company Jae was reduced to included the bearded dunce who'd tried talking to her on their way here, a ginger girl with a camera slung around her neck and a girl with black hair and red eyes. God, this was gonna be a fun summer. Jae rolled her eyes, flouncing on the ground amongst the cabbages as soon as Derek had left the site. She looked up to see the three others staring at her.
"What?" She snapped, pulling out a lighter from her chest pocket. She set the nearest leaves alight, grinning slightly at the flames.
"Well, go on then! Get harvesting." Jae looked up expectantly at the other three before exhaling loudly and pulling out the nearest, unburned cabbage. She slung it into her sack, and gestured at the other three as if to tell them to get a move on.
Jae trundled through the plants, only picking up vegetation whenever one of the witless wonders looked over to her. She didn't want to please them or Sir Derek, but she knew that there was an increasing risk of her egg being taken away if she doesn't appear to do some work. Whenever their backs were turned, Jae would bring out her lighter and set fire to any plant in her way, just because she could.
Jae soon had wandered from the pack, and had resorted to exploring the cabbage patches. She'd left her sack of poorly ripped food a few feet away before wandering through the cucumber plants. After boredom had led Jae to burn holes through her labcoat, she impatiently began plucking crops from any plants within her reach. She returned to her sack with arms filled with puny vegetables, hoping to be excused from harvesting any further.
Jae allowed the veg to tumble out of her arms and into the sack, but as she did she noticed movement from within the bag. She grinned at the thought of any sort of distraction from work as she rummaged through the sack, looking for the source of movement.
"Gargh! Get out of my crops!" Jae yelled, as she found what she'd been looking for. Under the cucumbers wriggled a fair few Caterpie, who had chosen Jae's bag for food.
"There's veg everywhere! Why are you eating my work?!" She shouted, tipping the sack upside down. The Caterpie swarmed around the food, and Jae stood there, anger rising. She raised her lighter menacingly, and got ready to embrace the bugs.
