"Sorry kiddies, but as much as I like watching him squirm, this one's mine." Bob said, shrugging. Raffy glared for a second, but was greatful for the save. After all, he did enjoy making Bob squirm on occasion. "But he's too CUTE to not be in a contest!" The third kid exclaimed. The other two kids nodded intently. Group sweatdrop from Bob and Raffy. "Look kids, as much as I'd like to stay and argue, I'm tired, hungry and it's getting late. I'll deal with you later." Bob sighed. "Then I'll fight you for him." The kid stated, as he grabbed a pokeball. Bob, now thoroughly annoyed, irritated and pissed off, just held a hand out. The light seemed to know what to do and formed a ball in the outstretched hand. The kids stood slack-jawed while the light ball got brighter. Just before it became a full-fledged Solarbeam, Bob turned his hand so that it pointed away from everyone, and fired casually as the light seemed to do it on its own. Molten sand was created where the Solarbeam met the beach ... hardened into glass by an Ice Beam from somewhere. "Later kid." Bob said, as he got Raffy out of the pile of Cuteness. The Girafarig's look was a cross between gratitude and anger. Mimic looked at the area of glass on the beach 'Man I wish Jeff coulda seen that. It looked like something out of one of those anime shows he watches.' Bob thought, as he wandered towards the city, in search of a Pokemon Center. Mimic followed. ---------- At the Day Care Center all the way in Johto, Jeff sneezed while watching one of those anime shows. The little Marill on his lap looked up, but Jeff was still glued to the TV. "I wish that could be done in real life" Jeff said, as one of the characters let loose with a killer energy blast. ---------- Bob sneezed as he continued wandering about the City of Lilycove, completely lost. "You wouldn't happen to know what way to go Mimic? Cause I don't want to accidently incinerate anything else today and I'm lost completly." Bob said, unknowingly standing in front of the Department Store TBC ------- Clayton
