[color=f7941d][h2]Abigail Lowe[/h2][/color] Location: Redorchard [hr] Abigail ignored the weird look that the science guy gave her. She was too busy clutching her head. [color=f7941d]"What'd you do that for? That really hurt!"[/color] she whimpered, sounding like a little kid. It wasn't that the slap had really hurt, but having her attempts at friendliness rejected had really hurt the poor girl's feelings. Her lip quivered a little as she looked at the floor. [color=f7941d]"Meanie."[/color] she muttered, staring at the ground. She looked up when the girl's Sneasel smiled at her. While it wasn't much, really, Abigail's expression brightened a little and she gave the Pokémon a wide smile, while Bruce started talking about rare Pokémon to blue-haired girl. This interaction had convinced Abigail that the girl definitely needed her help to learn how to treat people. It was enough to help Abigail make a remarkably fast recovery [color=9e0b0f]"Any other questions?"[/color] Abigail looked up at Bruce, smiling and thrusting a packet of sweets at him. [color=f7941d]"Do you want a chocolate?"[/color] she asked, smiling. After giving him a moment to decide whether he'd take one, she turned and headed out of the lab, practically bouncing as she walked. She paused at the entrance, remembering something. Oh, yeah! She hadn't even sent out Waffles yet! As soon as she remembered, she sent out the Deerling, who looked up at his trainer and nodded in acknowledgement. [color=00a651]"Deerling!"[/color] he cried, stamping his hooves. Abigail wrapped her arms around the Pokémon in a hug, the small deer looking slightly confused by this. [color=f7941d]"I can't wait to go travelling with you, Waffles!"[/color] on hearing his nickname, the Pokémon sighed, already managing to sound like a weary parent. He seemed to appreciate the Abigail's honest affection, though, eventually nuzzling his head against the small girl's side, before pausing and sniffing at her pocket. [color=f7941d]"Oh, do you want one?"[/color] she said, noticing the action and holding out a small piece of candy, which Waffles took enthusiastically, before heading down the path. She noticed the guy from the lab just ahead of her, and sped up to catch up with him, Waffles following behind. Before she reached him, she noticed a few kids on the path ahead of her. [color=f7941d]I wonder what they're doing. Maybe they were at the lab?[/color] she wondered, pausing so that her Deerling could catch up.
