[Spruce] It appeared as though all of those attacks were enough to finish off Martin, who, after Celes' swift attack, simply passed out with his final words being "No... why? I thought I was... in charge..." That, of course, completed our mission to take down an outlaw, as well as Hex, Josh, and Matt's mission to save the emolga, who turned out to be trapped by the same outlaw we were pursuing. It seemed as though everyone helped out as much as they could, and with everything being over, I turned back to see the rest of the team, as well as the rest of the other team who was helping mine, and say "Well, that's certainly one mission done, huh? Heh, good job, and thank you all for helping." I then look around for my badge, and use it to teleport myself, and the rest of my team (making sure to use the badge on M, who didn't have one yet, first) back to the guild to get our reward... oh, that's right, I also made sure to bring the outlaw with us just to be sure that we can actually turn him in to officer Blake, the bisharp. He was actually waiting for us when we all teleported in, and seemed surprised, somehow, that we were able to complete a mission. I got the minor reward money of about 500 poke, and split it with the rest of my team. The result was all four of us getting 135 poke to ourselves. It wasn't much, but it was a start. --------------------- [Anthony] As soon as I called on help, literally everyone else came and defeated Martin for me, well, okay, I did help, but still... I turned towards that snivy, but before I could say anything, he simply teleported away with Martin, and the rest of his team, leaving me with a combee, a skrelp, and a reuniclus, none of whom I was completely familiar with. Without that Snivy's team, I guess I was going to have to join some other pokemon. "Uh... guys? Mind if I tag along with you? I kinda don't have anywhere else to go." I asked the other team. Of course I would have told them my name, but something told me that they already knew. Of course, they'd have to teleport me, as well as the emolga, back to their base, or, whatever they called it... I just hoped that I wouldn't be a burden. I then wondered aloud "Say... if you guys are a team, what's your team name?" I then simply waited for their response, secretly hoping that they'd accept me on their team. Of course, if they didn't, I'd probably find some other way of making money to help support myself and my mother... but... well... with what I've done with that Martin, I kinda felt that I had to repay the world, somehow. [i]I can't believe I was roped into becoming an outlaw, just because Martin told me I was doing good things, and that I was helping other pokemon...[/i] I think as I sit there and wait under my helmet, looking up at the combee who may just decide my fate.
