Thread: Pokemon: A Trainer's Crutch (LilGunner/BennyQ)

It was late in the day when Aydin first saw the visitor. He was well alerted to their approach not because of the noise but by the absence of it. The wilderness here was always watchful, always vigilant, curious and ready to spring when something or someone unknown approached. Threat or prey? His own Pokemon had started to become the same way, their usual noises and interactions falling to a cessation when an unfamiliar figure approached. Surely it was who Nurse Joy had informed him about, a potential candidate for his job offer. Needless to say Aydin was quite surprised when he saw her . He hadnt expected someone so young to be out here, to have made the journey. Neither did he expect it to even be a her . Or someone so pretty and attractive. She came riding in on her Rapidash, the strong bond evident by the fact that the horse-creatures flames was not burning the rider. He was even more impressed by her talents of scouting and awareness by having her Fearow out and about ahead of her. Whatever her age may be, or her looks, she was certainly no push over and knew something about the wilds. As she came nearer and dismounted, Aydin rose from the steps of the porch, flanked by his Magneton which floated just behind his shoulder. A few of his other companions watched from a distance. Who was this newcomer? they chatted to one another. A few only looked the powerful Rapidash up and down and saw a challenge. But to the girl, Aydins smile was warm and welcoming. He had become a master of charisma despite being so sundered here in the wilderness of Mt. Silver. But charisma was apart of the core tenants of his dedicated organization and employer. One hand shoved in his pocket, his other hung by his side as he crossed towards the girl and took her hand in greeting. His blue eyes sparkled like sunlight off a lake. It is my pleasure to make your acquaintance, Ms. Murasakino. Aydin answered with a charming smile and a slow, deep voice. He gave her a firm shake before releasing her hand, though he felt a desire to want to hold on longer. And the job is most certainly available, if you think youre up for it. Please, come on inside and we can talk further. Im sure your travel here has made you hungry. You may leave your Pokemon out here if you wish. Theres plenty of water and fodder for them as well. With a wave of his hand, he led Kaya into the modest house. Whatever its exterior showed, the interior was very modern and comfortable. The front door opened into a foyer and lobby, with the television on but on mute. It was an open concept ground floor, which meant the living room was shared with the kitchen and dining area. A staircase separated the main floor, with rooms on the other side and a corridor leading to the barn, where all the supplies and maintenance for his Pokemon were stored and kept. Upstairs was several more bedrooms and a study. The hatch leading to the secret basement was carefully concealed away. A fragrant aroma wafted about the room. His adoring Nidorina leapt onto a couch and curled up there. Coffee or tea? He asked, getting a kettle ready. I hope your trip here wasnot very eventful. I have no doubt it certainly had its fair share of obstacles but you seem a competent trainer. The job I have, Ms. Murasakino, is no easy task however. I have thirty odd Pokemon from my travels and my work load has increased to the point where I can no longer give them the care and attention they all need. What Im looking for, he said with a soft chuckle, is someone to help with the mummying side of Pokemon raising and care. Maintaining meal schedules, training, exercise, and oversight. Youll have to play warden to keep wild Pokemon off the grounds while at the same time keeping mine from wandering off, as they have a habit to do. He said with a bit of tired dismay but kept his smile fixated all the same. Whatever her preferred drink was, he brought it over, along with a bowl of diced fruits and even some candy. On the bottom of the mugs were engraved T.Rbut that could stand for anything. And who even looked at the bottom of a mug? Youll have lodgings here as well, just in a bedroom down the hall on the main floor. He himself had a grand ole suite upstairs all to himself. And the pay Im sure is quite adequate, not to mention the experience to train and interact with various types of Pokemon, to prepare yourself for others you might catch here, which I fully endorse you doing if you have the opportunity. Aydin smiled, sipping his drink and watching her carefully. Now, I hope I havent frightened you off with that speech on your expected duties and responsibilities. If its not your cup of tea, no hard feelings. Take a hearty meal here, rest up for the night, and you can return on home. But if you are interestedwhy dont you tell me a bit about yourself? What badges have you and what Pokemon do you consider your favorite and most loved? Aydin asked in return, wanting to know more about this indigo haired woman.
