<Do we really have to go down there?> A small Totodile whimpered as her eyes looked at the entrance to the Shasta Ruins. It was dark, and it looked deep. There were sounds of people digging in there already, but the annoying clank of metal against the wall irked her. Seamus was right beside her, though she made sure to keep a bit of a distance from her trainer. He was cold to her, and it made her nervous. Skittish. She followed him like a puppy though, fearful of any scolding he might give her. "Ethyl, come." He also commanded her like a dog, and she soon toddled after her trainer. A frightened claw tugged at his pants legs, fearing the darkness more than her trainer. Seamus came prepared though, and brought not only a lantern to bring down here, but had a few glow in the dark items on him. Two pins in the shapes of chemistry stuff; an atom and a molecule, and he had a glow in the dark watch. It would do for now, at least. They went deeper into the caves, devoured by the darkness that caused a deathly fear in the Totodile's mind. Once he picked an area that seemed a bit quieter, he rested the lantern on the ground, striking a match and lighting it. The Totodile watched it curiously for a few moments, until Seamus coughed to get her attention. "Dig here, Ethyl. Metal Claw would work, I suppose." Steel beat rock, right? Didn't that apply here too? The Totodile nodded at the command, though she didn't know why exactly, and started hacking away at the walls. Seamus had a pick axe as well, but wasn't all that keen on the manual labor. He did try though, but they were very half-hearted attempts to break the rock. { Ethyl } Level 18.5 Uses Metal Claw on the walls Mining Post #1[/font]

Vio was not the type to do manual labor, but it was rumored some fat hiker guy sold pretty and rare items for these things called shards. Pretty and rare? Vio was in, but she was not ready for what was in store. There was dirt, and grime, and ew. Bugs. This was not Vio's scene, but she wanted the opportunity.
Plus she already decided she would charm some chum into finding the shards for her. It would be a piece of cake.
As she wandered around the ruins with her Nidoran, Alexiane, in her arms, she found herself delving deeper and deeper into complete and total darkness. At first, she was alright, but after a while, she was a bit freaked out. A small glimmer of light shone just down this tunnel. Vio smirked to herself, and looked down at Alexiane, "I think we found our first sucker."
Vio's stride quickened, and she began panting. She might as well start her act before she spoke, to get into character. Alexiane jumped out of her arms, the pace too quick for her, but she stayed close behind her. Alexiane stopped, and began sniffing the walls. There was another Pokémon about. Vio approached the trainer, "E-Excuse me," She began, her voice unnaturally quite and timid, "I'm not entirely sure where I am, and I'm a little scared of the dark." She lied through her teeth. She clasped her fingers together in front of her, "Could I, erm, possibly join you?" She asked.
Let's see how gullible this trainer really is.

Panting? What, was something being chased away by something down here? It was enough to pick up Seamus's attention, and as he glanced over into the depths of the tunnel, Ethyl picked up on his lack of interest in mining. Was she supposed to stop too...? She wasn't sure, as he never commanded her to stop. One time he yelled at her for stopping without a command, and the thought of it made her scales shiver with anticipation of a harsh command. She made half-hearted attempts to beat up the wall as the scent of a human and Pokémon wavered over to her. 'A girl...? An older girl.' Instinctively he jumped back, not liking being around a pretty thing in a dark area, all alone...and he was 42 and all, so this was even more strange for him. She seemed scared though, which made him wonder why she wasn't afraid of him? Typically girls didn't go straight away to the old creepy men in the dark black jackets when in the dark, and when scared. If he was young, and maybe in his twenties, then possibly, but it was strange. Still, he couldn't deny her. A warning trembled out of his lips as he stammered, having some trouble keeping his composure. "I-I could escort you out, if you'd like." A frightened girl down here in the dark. How scandalous. Ethyl looked on at her trainer with a confused look, hardly chipping away at the rock as she wondered why he was so...different all of a sudden. { Ethyl } Metal Claw comes to a halt. Curious.

"I-I could escort you out, if you'd like."
Hmm. Now that would not do, especially since she was in here to find those supposedly "pretty and rare" shards everyone has been talking about lately. Vio shook her head, "I feel a bit better knowing someone was here, I was..." Quick, Vio, think of an excuse, "...scared of ghosts. Silly right?" Her voice was high pitched and innocent sounding, and she tried making herself sound heartfelt and genuine, but all she wanted to do was gag on her words.
As the lantern light flickered between the two beings, Vio noticed that this man was not just any man. He was an old man, practically ancient. Well she certainly did not luck out on any eye candy, but if he helped her get those damn shards it did not matter. What was the chance of seeing him again, anyways? She gave him a half smile, "You look like you're working so hard. Truthfully, I have no idea what I'm doing! Care to lend a hand?" She asked, looking down at her Nidoran who nuzzled her leg, not wanting to be here.
Alexiane took one huge sniff, and turned to the side where she was in front of a certain water pokemon, a totodile. She took a couple steps forward, standing her ground. She scoffed at it, her nose up in the air as if she was better than her.
Alexiane encountered Totodile. Alexiane stared at her.

'Dig...keep digging? I think that's all I have to do.' Ethyl looked worriedly up at the girl and her own trainer, feeling something strange about the girl's voice. She didn't think anything badly of her, but it genuinely seemed a bit unnatural for such a kind looking girl, even if the darkness made everyone look scarier than usual. Why, if she used a Scary Face in the dark at this very second, and if she saw her own reflection, she would be horrified for sure. "Didn't you see the sign when you came down here...? I think there was some guy giving out digging equipment." He pondered out loud, knowing that he had an extra flashlight on him from that strange hiker's kindness. If the girl needed it, he had no issue lending it to her. They were only about 500 PD at the Kwikie Mart anyways. He shook his head in annoyance, figuring that it couldn't be helped. "I'm o-only here to dig, so I'm afraid that I'll be very boring." He looked nervously back at Vio, realizing that he would have to do manual labor in front of a girl, and he wasn't fit at all. Skinny, yes, but he lacked muscles. He prayed that she looked away as he dug, or at least didn't judge him for it. Ethyl stopped digging for a moment, turning to look at the group with curiosity. What was going on here exactly? "And who told you to stop?" Seamus boredly turned to glare down at the Totodile, who swiftly froze at the warning tone in his voice. Instantly she began hacking away at the wall, too terrified to even dare to turn and glance at the conversation.

"Didn't you see the sign when you came down here...? I think there was some guy giving out digging equipment."
Duh, she had already gotten that. She had shoved it in her black tote bag and ran into the ruins. She had not exactly planned everything out accordingly, but whatever. Vio opened the flap of her tote bag, and took out the case she obtained. "This?" she asked, looking up at the older man. As much as she hated to, she had to play dumb. Alexiane, however, just looked up at her trainer and shook her head. She saw through her trainers plan, and just felt ashamed she was part of this. It was pathetic. It would have been a lot less work to do it yourself, but doing work and getting sweaty was gross, so she could understand.
"I'm o-only here to dig, so I'm afraid that I'll be very boring."
Dur, that was part of the reason why she was here. "Let's dig together then!" She could feel the strain in her voice. Vio did not like being this nice to people who did not deserve it, and frankly this man did not prove himself worthy of whatever kindness she had. "I mean, I need a way out, and I don't want you to stop to help lil' ol' me. I have the equipment anyway..." Vio opened the case, taking out the tools needed and blinked for a moment. He did not seem to jump at the opportunity to help her out. A plan began to formulate in her head.
"And who told you to stop?"
Vio looked into the direction to see what he was addressing to, and she saw a very frazzled Totodile work diligently on the walls. So that was how things were around here! Vio smirked at Alexiane, "You can start working too." Alexiane looked up at Vio, and gave her a dirty look before moving to the side of totodile, and began scratching against the wall.
"Having you here makes this a lot less scary," Vio looked back at the man, "Do you mind if I tag along for now?" She did not know how long she could keep this up, but she needed to figure out a way to make him do all the work. "Erm, how do you use these?" Just play dumb. It always works.

Seamus stopped picking at the wall with his own pick axe for a second, glancing at the stuff she was referring to. He looked at her oddly, not quite understanding this questioning nature of hers. Whatever happened to the natural skill of watching others and learning at the same time? Her cuteness always made him retract his doubts, but the suspicion still remained. The problem was whether it was worth it to bring it up or not, and even if he was a curious individual, when it came down to girls he simply preferred to avoid them altogether. "Fine, go ahead. Not too close though." He grumbled a little at the end, mostly for his own good. If she got any closer to him, he would've snatched up Ethyl and moved farther down the tunnel where she couldn't bother him. Though if she was actually scared of ghosts down here, then wouldn't she go after him? Ugh. Why bother making a plan when he couldn't even think it through? "Hm? Oh, you can come along I suppose...I think trainers are supposed to dig together anyways." Did the hiker mention something like that? It sounded stupid though, unless they were worried of one trainer using all of their Pokemon, and the walls caved down or something. But who would be stupid enough to do that? It was the main reason why his Steelix wasn't down here right now. <A little room, please.> Ethyl huffed to the Nidoran, already getting tired after hacking away at the wall for so long. For a bashful Pokemon, she did have quite a bit of a temper when it came down to it. Something about the way her species worked, she supposed. "Erm, how do you use these?"
Um...what? Was she seriously holding up the pick axe and the hammer, asking how she was supposed to use them? Already he switched to the hammer to try and chip away at the harder rock, trying to figure out some sort of method to make it easier. "J-Just try it and see." He said nicely, though honestly, he wished she would shut up a little bit.

"Fine, go ahead. Not too close though."
Hmph. Was that a partial rejection? Vio moved just a smidge closer to him. Maybe he was the bashful type? That was always fun to play with. Vio had always been the type of person to play with her food before swallowing them whole. A smirk crept up at a corner of her pale pink lips, more plans formulating in her head.
"Hm? Oh, you can come along I suppose...I think trainers are supposed to dig together anyways."
Bingo. She already hooked in the sucker, and now all she had to do was manipulate him into doing the work for her. Truthfully, she did not know how to use the tools, but she was not stupid. All you had to do was hit the wall, and stuff fell down, right? And eventually shards will come out. At least he did not entirely reject her, but she was surprised he was not on his knees begging to do the work for her. She was slightly irritated at that fact.
<A little room, please.>
Meanwhile, Alexiane looked at the Totodile, and scoffed at it. She was not going to say anything to an inferior being, so instead of saying something snappy, she lightly hip checked the water pokemon, and smirked doing so. Just like her trainer, she wanted something to play with, lest she die of boredom. She continued to scratch at the walls afterward.
"J-Just try it and see."
Vio put away the hammer and held up the pick axe. Ugh, maybe she would do a little bit of work, then play dumb or cry or something. Vio was a good actor, and a fast-thinker. Things would come to her with time. "Oh. Okay..." Vio whispered, frowning a little bit as she turned to the wall. The lantern casted eerie shadows of the both on the dirt. She took the pick axe to the wall, dirt and god-knows-what-else falling down to the ground and she took a step back, "Ew!" She exclaimed.
Quickly thinking, she swung the pick axe down, grazing it across her thigh and ripping her dark wash skinny jeans, revealing the slightest hint of pale skin, and then soon red liquid being soaked up by her jeans. Probably not the smartest thing she could have done, but tears welled up in her eyes as she dropped the pick axe beside her, "Ow, oh my gosh," She looked down at her leg, "Oh god...I cut myself, oh my gosh it hurts." Okay, she was overplaying it, but whatever. If he did not rush to her side, she'd turn normal and just pick on him. ....and quite possibly find a bandaid in the process.

As Vio moved a little closer to him, Seamus unknowingly reacted to her presence and shied away by the same amount. Personal space was something he tried to maintain, whenever possible. Even with his own Pokemon, he disliked it when they chose to be touchy feely. His only exception was his starter; who happened to have a bad encounter with TD. He knew it wise not to push the boundaries of his strongest Pokemon, and did what he could to try and return the Beedrill to normal. 'Did she just...? I think she did!' The Totodile's eyes widened as she glanced at the Nidoran, feeling some kind of motion against her side. Her lips curled into a frown; the light from the lantern revealing a few pearly fangs in the process as she scratched at the wall. She didn't want to start a conflict, so she made one last attempt to avoid getting out of control and moved to the side. As the light haired girl managed to strike into the earth, he rolled his eyes as she shrieked at the dirt. Honestly, why did she even come down here in the first place? This one put women's rights back about 30 years or so. Then, a cry of pain and suddenly he was alert. She swung the axe too hard and managed to nab herself pretty good on her leg. That dirty axe too, who knows what she would be infected with. In a completely serious, and possibly menacing tone, he got out a quick first aid kit and spoke. "You put a lot of muscle into that swing, but its a shame the axe was covered in this ancient earth." He got out one of the sterilized cotton balls and a small bottle of hydrogen peroxide, which was supposed to help disinfect wounds. "I sure hope you aren't one of those kids that left their home at a young age. This is the perfect environment for Tetanus." He felt too nervous touching her, but instead tried to hand the swab over to her, "I-I don't like touching other people." he admitted, though the truth was more specific than that.

Seeing the Totodile's fangs did not scare Alexiane, instead, it made her want to play more. "What's the matter," the Nidoran teased, a small smirk on her face, "You don't want to play with me?" She looked to the walls, scratching it and making dirt fall onto the ground. Unlike her trainer, she knew dirt was inevitable. She just did not like it. All Alexiane wanted was for this water Pokémon to make it a bit more bearable.
"You put a lot of muscle into that swing, but its a shame the axe was covered in this ancient earth."
Well, duh sherlock. That was why she did it. She blinked once, liquid blurring her vision for a moment before she lightly dabbed it with the back of her hand. The last thing she needed was a make-up malfunction. She looked back at him, hydrogen peroxide at the ready, and stood completely still. "I sure hope you aren't one of those kids that left their home at a young age. This is the perfect environment for Tetanus." Great.
Vio shook her head. "No, I left about a week or two ago," She admitted. She dabbed her wound lightly, feeling the warm liquid seep through her fingers. She did not know she had hurt herself that bad. The man held out the cotton swab to her. Oh hell no. He seemed squeamish, and she wanted her fun. "I-I don't like touching other people."
"Ew...ew ew ew!" Vio screamed out, wiping the blood on her jeans, "I-I can't do it. I don't like blood. I'll pass out." It was true she did not like blood, but fainting? Oh please. She was not that pathetic, "Please? I can't do it." She shook her head, and let her eyes water up to a point where small tears flowed down her cheek.

<I don't like your definition of playing.> The Totodile grumbled, giving her 'the angry look' when the Nidoran asked 'what's the matter'. She knew damn well what was the matter, and her cute little attitude wasn't helping her out. She remained hesitant on how to react to the situation, knowing that if she was to ignore Seamus again, scary things would happen. Very, very scary things. Though in her mind, it was all an exaggeration, and none of her other team mates were frightened of him. 'Then again, it isn't as if she's throwing rocks at me.' She sweat dropped, realizing that if that did happen, then she had no idea how she would even react to such a situation. She continued to claw at the wall, getting bored of this job already. Why couldn't Cobalt do this? "H-Huh? O-Oh I'm sorry if I scared you...it's just...not good." He blinked at the overreaction, before pondering over what she just said. Well, at her age, it was likely that her parents brought her in for the tetanus shot. She was safe from one danger in this cave, at least. The tears, to say the least, made him tremble with uncertainty. She wanted him...to treat, and treat she meant touch, her leg? He gulped, not sure how to react to the situation. He was a scientist, not a doctor. Yes, he knew some of the languages of medical science, but mostly that was out of curiosity, and...and...he was making excuses. Wincing, Seamus nodded at her solution. Oh god, this was going to be painful for him emotionally. "Don't look then." Since she was clearly looking at his face, pleading with him to help her, one small slip could mean that she'd be passed out right in front of him. That would simply not do. It would be an incident of 'get the hell out of here and not say a word' before anyone accused him of something indecent. With another fresh swab covered in hydrogen peroxide, he tentatively dabbed at the wound, not feeling sympathetic at first since it was bound to sting. Really, he was only thinking of the benefits, and not enough about the warnings he should've given.

<I don't like your definition of playing.>
The totodile's rejections only made Alexiane want to bug her even more. As long as she was down here, scratching at the walls like some indecent Pokemon would do, she would have to find amusement someplace! She hip checked the water pokemon again, this time, moving a foot or so farther down the wall and continued scratching, she looked to the totodile, "Lighten up, and have some fun." Gosh, this thing was such a drag.
"H-Huh? O-Oh I'm sorry if I scared you...it's just...not good."
At first, Vio really thought he was not going to treat her, so she began to sway back and forth ever so slightly. The guy needed to learn how to touch women accordingly, even if he was an old hag! Suddenly, the whole situation seemed...almost morbid. Eh, if he pissed her off enough, she could just cry pedophilia and run while she still could. Poor guy, he was so nice to her...
"Don't look then."
"O-Okay," Vio replied, covering her eyes with one hand. As he dabbed her wound, she split her fingers so there was a slit where her eyes could see him, "That....that kind of tickles." Was hydrogen peroxide supposed to sting, because she was feeling the burn. She was not going to admit that, though. "You seem like a professional." Vio smirked, uncovering her face, still watching him dab her leg. Heh, she could not believe he believed all the crap he dished out to her! "Are you a doctor?" She asked, "Or do you normally treat young ladies in the dark?"
Alexiane teased Ethyl. Alexiane continued scratching the walls. OOC | Hydrogen Peroxide is so fun. I love watching it bubble up~ XD /freak [/center]

<L-Lighten up?> She looked at the Nidoran, a bit confused as to what she was playing at. The purple Pokemon had some kind of attitude that she wasn't all that sure if she liked or not, and her demeanor wasn't anything she was used to. In fact, she had next to no experience interacting with other girls, except those that were older than her. <Anyways...we've been digging for a while. I don't smell anything here, either.> The Totodile stopped digging for a moment, seeing that her trainer was distracted, and she wanted to get a better look at what she was doing. Some of the cracks down below looked a little easier to break, so she started poking around at it in hopes of giving her claws a break. It seemed to notice, because Seamus had other matters to attend to. "I'm not a doctor, but I've taken a few mandatory health classes." He shifted his glasses upward, examining the wound over again. It should be fine with a bandage, and he happened to have something like that on him in his first aid kit. It was the cheap stuff though, a small roll. He supposed it was his fault for buying it at the Kwikie Mart in the first place. As he was ripping the bandage apart from the roll, Vio asked another question that made him stop in his tracks. It sounded...so wrong. "I actually try to avoid girls. It just isn't...appropriate for someone my age." Seamus seemed a little sad about that, but it was his own choice. He chose work over his social life. The least he could do was wrap up the wound until she went to a clinic or something, just to prevent the dirt from getting in it. Once he was done, he let out a relieved sigh. Glad that was over... ::totodile:: { Ethyl } Still poking at the wall Mining Post 7~

<L-Lighten up?>
Was she serious? Alexiane let out a small sigh, and for a short moment she stopped digging and turned to the totodile, "Y'know. Loosen up, relax, live a little?" She tried to spell it out to her, hoping she would finally get it. It was not that hard. Maybe if the totodile eased up now, it would be easier for her to ease up in the future. Ah, it was fun to school others in the art of awesome.
<Anyways...we've been digging for a while. I don't smell anything here, either.>
Was she really all about work and no play? Alexiane gave a dramatic sigh, and continued scratching at the walls, "What are we supposed to be digging for anyways? I'm getting dirt underneath my claws." She pouted lightly as she stared at her nails. They were dirty, and would require a manicure very very soon. Meanwhile...
"I'm not a doctor, but I've taken a few mandatory health classes."
Eh, that made sense. Vio did not actually peg him for a doctor, but it was something to say. She nodded, though she did have to admit he was more of the....scholarly type. He continued, "I actually try to avoid girls. It just isn't...appropriate for someone my age."
Now THAT was a strange thing to admit. Vio furrowed her eyebrows, staring down at the man who was just finishing up her bandages, "But that's so...boring." It was a different tone than her damsel-in-distress attitude, she crossed her arms. Sure, he got flustered, but if he was not going to make a move on her, and then blow up on him about it, she might as well not bother, "Like...I mean, doesn't it get lonely?" She asked, trying to get back on her acting track. It was a momentary lapse of weakness, and she hoped he had not caught it.
Alexiane continued scratching the walls. [/center]

<O-Oh, I know what it means.> She shook her head, not sure what this Nidoran was getting at. She seemed a bit friendlier now though, a different impression than from what she originally had. Ethyl blinked curiously as the Nidoran sighed, not sure what she did to provoke such a thing. Or the poison type was just tired, which seemed more logical. <No one told me anything. But whatever it is, it's probably something stupid.> She scoffed, stupid human inventions that had no meaning to her. What if it was something for one of his stupid missions? She shook her head in annoyance. The last mission she went on with her trainer involved finding some kind of berry that was very spicy, and he made her taste test every last one of them. That mission was hell. This one probably would be too. She raised her claw and sent out a powerful slash, making a part of the wall crumble around her feet. There was a hole in the back, and something around that hole seemed to...sparkle? More effort would be needed to get it out, but she danced excitedly on her nervous feet. <I think we're almost done.> She exclaimed, trying to get Seamus's attention with her constant looks over in his direction. "Boring?" He looked at her oddly, wondering what kind of a mentality she had. Yes, restraining orders were pretty lively, but he had his permanent record to think about. "Maybe it is. Kept me alive long enough though." At her note about being lonely, he kind of thought more about her thought process. Boring because he was away from women...his age? Maybe? It made sense for some odd reason, and he went along with it. "Nope. There are three things in life that are important. Money. Happiness. Love. You only get to pick two." He said without all that much thought, finishing the bandage with one easy motion. He got up, dusting off his jacket as he examined the wall. Looked good.

<O-Oh, I know what it means. No one told me anything. But whatever it is, it's probably something stupid.>
Alexiane laughed, rolling her eyes. Of course it was something stupid, because she knew it would have to be some sort of idiotic reason for Vio of all people to venture down with the dirt and bugs, least of all have Alexiane accompany her. She knew that her and her trainer were two very finicky people.
<I think we're almost done.>
"Good, I'm getting nasty," Alexiane groaned, looking over at the Totodile. She was not looking too pretty herself.
This man almost perplexed Vio. Not only was he not sex-obsessed, or a complete tool, he was nice and quite the gentleman. Now THAT is boring. He would practically be the perfect guy if he was twenty or so years younger. Ugh, this was the problem with guys. All the nice ones were either taken or graying.
"Nope. There are three things in life that are important. Money. Happiness. Love. You only get to pick two."
Vio sighed, and crossed her arms, "You don't get to choose. You either work for it, or you're lucky." Her once clumsy and sweet tone turned serious. He was boring, and there was no way he was going to do the work for her now. There really was no need to act. At least her pokemon was working. She continued, "And the really lucky ones can have all three." It probably was not in her place to school a geezer, but what did she care?

<Hm. Guess we did get pretty dirty.> Ethyl coughed as some of the dust from her previous attacks blew over her way, sprinkling her body with its tainted brown color. Peh. She was a water type, and giving herself a bath would be a piece of cake. But why do that now until she was actually done digging? She forgot how to do her wimpy water gun, but Aqua Tail still had water involved in it. Thinking quickly, she gathered water around her tail, letting it surround some of her body for an easy wash as she slammed her tail into the wall. More of the wall was crumbling down, and she couldn't help but smirk in victory. It was a pre-mature smirk, but they were almost done! Huh, the girl was acting different now. Still, Seamus figured it had something to do with the cold and dry air down here. It was so dusty that it made it harder to breathe. Thank goodness he had strong lungs. "Is that so...? I'd like to meet the lucky one that has all three." He sighed wistfully, leaning against the opposing wall as he examined the work the two Pokemon were doing. "Anyways, your Pokemon did a lot of digging. Anything they find, we split." He grinned at her in a business like manner. Sure, she might've came down here on accident, but it was only fair. Besides, he had the worst soft spot when it came to girls. ::totodile::

Dirty was an understatement. Alexiane could feel the dirt crawling underneath her skin, and tainting her entire being. She took a step away from the wall, not wanting to touch it any longer. Why had she let her trainer talk her into this? She scoffed, "Well, I'm done. I'm getting gross," She paused for a moment, looking the totodile up and down, "And....so do you." She chuckled lightly under her breath.
As if on cue, the Totodile watered her own tail and smacked the wall, and Alexiane closed her eyes as an instinct as the walls came crumbling down with dirt, and dust came along with it. She coughed lightly, "Hey watch it. I don't want to inhale that stuff." She narrowed her eyes, wary of the water Pokémon.
"So would I," Vio sighed, lightly picking at the walls more carefully now. As the tool hit the wall, dirt and god-knows-what-else. Ew, this was gross. She decided she would go soon, but honestly she did not want to walk around this place alone, so she decided to wait for him to finish. He was a square, anyway.
"Anyways, your Pokémon did a lot of digging. Anything they find, we split."
As if he had read her mind, Vio stopped and looked up at him. Honestly, her and Alexiane did jack shit, but hey, if it got her more shards than she deserved than who the hell cares? She gave him a smirk, "That would be fantastic." They were almost done here, anyways, so it did not matter! "I'm glad I found someone like you," She nearly singsonged.
Alexiane stopped. 9/10 [/center]

<Hehehe...I'm like a portable shower. I'll be fine.> Ethyl grinned and gave a thumbs up to the Nidoran, not too unnerved from the dirty comment. They were both in this together, even if she was more of the powerhouse this time. She might still feel a bit awkward around other girls, but it was a nice change. Having only male teammates made her head spin right round when you go down. <I'll finish this up here then.> She nodded at Seamus, a bit glad to see him looking kind of pleased at her work. Not knowing why she was doing this at first made things even more annoying, but those sparkly things had to be special. In fact, she wanted one for herself. A blue one especially. With her tail gushing out water once more, wiping some of the dirt off of her, she slammed her tail back into the wall, finally gaining access to those precious shards. "H-Hehe." Seamus blushed at the last comment, not entirely sure how to react to being wanted around other people. He did jobs for cash, and that was usually how things went. She just happened to get his weak spot, that's all. "Its a pretty straight forward tunnel. I doubt you'd get lost on your way out." The man said as he began to gather up the shards in his arms. Just how many were there...? 30? Counting them out, he split them exactly in half. 12 for each person, which he couldn't tell was good or bad. Ah, well. No doubt if she pulled the scared act on him, he'd willingly escort her out. Otherwise, he would've walked out of here faster than a pig on fire. { Ethyl } Aqua Tail on the Wall! 10 Mining Posts! 12 Shards for each user. Post your final post to claim them. [/font]

It was obvious they were done now, and as the man began to pick up the shards and divide them, she decided to pack the tool she was using and put it in the box she was given when she had arrived here. Ugh, thank god that was over, now she did not have to pretend to be some sort of damsel and distress. Even she started to piss herself off. "Eh, you're right. It wasn't hard getting here," Vio shrugged, not really putting on the "act".
Alexiane looked over at the Totodile. Even if it was...tacky to have a built-in shower, it was convenient. "I like my showers warm and not generated by my own body," She commented, following the snob tone her trainer was using. Vio turned to Alexiane, "Alright, it's almost time to go." She pulled out her pokeball and pressed the button, sucking the nidoran in with a white beam of light.
Vio turned to the man, "You know what? I think I can find my own way." She declared, taking her half without really asking. "See ya, sucker!" She giggled, turning back the way she came. The darkness began to envelop her until she was finally gone.
