"Explorers go missing all the time," Lan said, "It can be a
dangerous job if you don't know your limits. That's why pokemon
like Rick are crucial to a team. Thank Arceus for Rick, without him
I would've gone and gotten myself killed by now."
(Lan: ..... FAKE NEWS!)
"And kids these days are being born with insanely high egos,
thinking everything is just a walk in the park," Lan said, "Trust
me, it's nothing. That Luxray was just spouting nonsense to get
people all riled up."
"Alright..." Saffron said lowly. Sam looked at Saffron and tilted
her head slightly concerned. "Anyway...uh I'm going to get to doing
my other chores. I'll be in berry plains (or whatever I put for the
berry place) if you need me" he said softly, and walked out of
town. He unknowingly left his bag of apples behind.
Lan noticed the bag of fruit, and grabbed it, chasing after
Saffron. "Hey, you forgot this!" he shouted, trying to get
Saffron's attention as Lan chased after him
Sam followed, she noticed Saffron was to far away to hear them.
"Maybe we should bring it to his house, or we could go to that
berry place...after all that's where he was going" she suggested
with a sigh, and glanced at the fruit.
Lan sighed. "Ill just give it to Rick when we get back," he said,
sounding somewhat annoyed, "He knows where the kid lives. Besides,
we gotta finish the shopping and all that."
Sam nodded "alright" she said kindly, and sighed. "To bad we
couldn't get it to him...but I'm sure Rick will return it" she said
simply. She turned back to town, and walked towards the square.
Lan shrugged. "Some people think things that are entirely
improbable for no reason," he said, "The only concerning part is
that some people believe that crap. I imagine you've heard malarkey
like that before. Pokemon spout nonsense about the destruction of
all sorts of things all the time."
(lol Lan is one of those guys who wont believe things unless they
see them)
"Alright" Sam nodded simply, but didn't press on. She was slightly
worried about Saffron now. "Anyway...do you think Rick will be up
before we get back?" She asked trying to change the subject.
