"Errrrrrrm, okaaaay...?" Willow said after a moment, finding the Espurr's silence a little unsettling. [i]I'll take that as a 'yes', I suppose,[/i] she thought, straightening herself back up to her full height and turning around to address the rest. 

"Okay! For all the new arrivals, I have decided to start us all out with a scavenger hunt," Willow said. "It will allow us to get used to how these Mystery Dungeons work and for me to witness your skills as fighters and explorers. You will each be put into groups." She paused for a moment, scanning over all the members again with eyes. "Well, it seems we have an odd number. But that's okay." She gave a small cough to clear her throat. "Alright! As said before, Ame will be coming with me. Monado and Lupus are already a pair. Russet..." She paused again, glancing at the Furret. "Well, Tina has gone so I guess you can partner with, errr..." She scanned the other group members before her eyes landed on Franklin. She then pointed sharply at the Turtwig. "That guy!" [i]Who's name I have completely forgotten,[/i] she added in her head. She'd have to make it a note to list everyone's names after this first mission was done.

She then glanced over at Lillith and Timothy, who had already seemed to have bonded. "I guess you guys can go together," she said. Lastly, she glanced back at the Espurr, who was now sitting on the floor, apparently reading over the advertisement once again. "You!" she proclaimed, pointing at the Psychic Pokemon. "As a Psychic type, you'll be useful in this particular dungeon. You will go with..." She pointed to Russet and Franklin. "Those two!" She nodded. "Yes!" 

A confident smirk stretched across her face as she turned back to the others. "Well, it seems that's taken care of! The Mystery Dungeon we shall be going to is called Mushroom Forest. We shall head off there right now!" [i]Before Sergeant Arcanine tries to stop me![/i] "We stop outside the entrance so I can tell you what it is we shall be finding, based on natural objects that I know can be found there. Then I will send you off in your groups." She narrowed her eyes. "Prove to me that you're worthy to be a member of this guild, and that I can count on all of you on the future." Her tone suddenly became very serious. "Something is very wrong with this world, and I need to know that I have dedicated and loyal Pokemon by side who can help me stop this catastrophe."

She paused again, almost for dramatic effect, before that same arrogant smile reappeared on her features. She then clapped her paws together. "Okay, enough standing around, folks! Chop, chop! Let's get a move on!" she called, and began marching towards the front door, ready to get down to business.
