((Keh, I'm back from my disappearance.))

"Oh!" she says, making her voice cheerful and her face smiling...and soon she felt happy once again. "A net ball? Of course, we have a ton of them around. She goes into the back room. While she was gone, the Scyther looked carefully at Max with scarlet eyes, tapping the tip of his blade on the counter.

"I'm back, sorry for the wait," she says cheerfully, she had brought out a dozen. "Now, how much do you want?"

"Hmm, maybe ten, I heard that Scyther were hard to find" Answered Max, eyeing the Scyther up and down. "Also, it would be helpful if you had a handbook on catching bug pokemon. I'm not a bug catcher but I'm trying to catch a Scyther. By the way, do you know of an apartment I could rent for the time being?" As he spoke the Scyther started looking at him more intently than ever before. "What does it want with me?" He thought "I hope my Scyther won't be like this".

OCC: Why was Scyther staring at me?
 
((He's bored. With nothing else to do, he stares. Its not unfriendly or anything! n.n))

Sh places the two away, pocketing them herself. "You are indeed correct," she says, "Scyther Pokemon are tough to find...and even tougher to catch! Blade, go to that shelf and get down the BugCatcher's Guide for the New, I heard that the book is a good one." Blade nods, going over to the shelf and using his strong wings to propell himself upward to grab it off the top.

"As for an apartment, sorry, I don't know of a good one. If you can't find one, however, I have a guest room in the back (that's where I live) that's pretty cozy. At least...my Yamna and other bug Pokemon are quite fond of it!" she looks at him, "Don't worry, I can shoo them out of that room if you decide to stay. They won't mind. Ah, here you go," she adds as her Scyther brings the book back. That'll be 200 PokeDollars" ((That's actually not that much for PokeDollars. I'm not sure what they are actually called that, though...))
 
OOC: Let's just call them PokeDollars for now

BIC: Max pulled a random number of PokeDollars from his pocket, then removed 200 PokeDollars from his left hand saying "Here you are," he took a quick look at the cover of the book before adding "And as for the guest room, I don't think I'll need it. I've already booked a room in the hotel and I was just wondering where to get permanent residence. Do you know where the pokemon center is, though? Alakazam can't teleport to the pokemon center until he's been there, and my pokemon are starving!"
 
Kev worked diligently on a few projects for about an hour. All of the jobs he undertook were small and easy projects like PokeBall tweaks or Dex corrections. After finishing work on a Dive Ball, Kev looked out the window at the setting sun. He glanced at his watch and back out the window again. "Six O' Clock!!" Kev thought to himself. He had an exhausting day. The battle with the mysterious Pokemon and then sitting worried in the Hospital waiting room for hours had really taken it out of him. Skipping lunch to get some work done after the day's events didn't help with Kev's lack of energy. He sat up from his desk and unclipped the silver pokeball from his belt.

"Corcyro, come!!" exclaimed Kev.

A bright flash lit up the slowly darkening office and an instant later, Kev's beloved Pokemon stood in front of him.

"Hey buddy!! Sorry to keep you cooped up in that ball for so long. What do you say we go grab a bite to eat and then catch the baseball game on TV tonight?"

Corcyro's disgruntled look quickly disappeared. "Cor!! Cor!!" cried Corcyro.

Kev bounded up the stairs to his upstairs room and grabbed a wad of extra cash. He headed back down the stairs and flipped off his desk lamp. The only light in the room now was coming from the outside light. He and Corcyro exited the room and closed the office door behind them. Then Kev approached the large front window and flipped the sign reading "OPEN" to the opposite side, "CLOSED". He then turned out the main shop's lights and opened up the door. Kev and Corcyro stepped outside and both took in a deep breath of the fresh Murcott air. Kev had always loved the incredible fresh, salty smell of the air in Murcott. Pulling out his keychain, he sifted through his various keys until he found the shop's key. He turned around and locked the door, slipping the keys back into his pocket.

"Come on, Corcyro," stated Kev, and the pair headed off down the sidewalk to the Cafe.
