Despite the Pokemon gym across the bridge, Canalave City was a peaceful
port. Residents were used to trainers coming in to challenge Byron and
gain their mine badge. Their presence was a huge boost to the city's
economy since they would stock up on potions at the pokemart. Eldritch
took them to the islands via his ferry. He used to love sailing with
young trainers and hearing of their victories but he has not been the
same since his son got sick. Maybe one of those trainers will come back
with something that will help both his son and Eldritch's depression.
It
was on a day like any other when all the commotion happened. Dawn
pulled the Barry through the streets by his hair, beating his face
against houses and the steel bars holding up the bridge. They went into
the pokecenter where Dawn proceeded to beat Barry's face on the counter
several times. There was a look of horror on the face of the nurse on
duty that day.
Dawn pulled out her pokeballs and made Barry
apologize to each one of them before handing them to the nurse to heal.
After he apologized, she banged his head on the counter. By now, he had a
black eye and his nose must have been broken. Then she went over to the
computer, logged in, took out her poison barb, and beat him with it.
The
pokemart could not have anticipated the couple barging in a few minutes
later. Barry could barely walk and his nose was dripping blood. They
went to the far back wall to the display cases where she banged his face
against the glass, leaving a smear of blood on the panes. They made a
mess when she slid his face over the shelves in the middle of the store
and knocked everything onto the floor. The ladies behind the counter
were too frightened to yell at them. After bashing Barry's head against
their counter like she had in the pokecenter, she looked up at the
ladies and smiled.
"Hi," she squealed with the voice of a demon
child. "He'll take three revives and 15 super potions." Then she plucked
his wallet out from his pocket, slammed his head against the counter
for good measure, and paid the ladies. They did not ask questions and
handed the merchandise over to Dawn. "Thank you!" she squealed again as
she put all of it in her satchel and dragged Barry back outside.
She
finally let go of him in front of the bridge but began kicking him and
shouting. "I looked all over for you at Hearthome with the pokemon I
used to beat Fantina, but you were nowhere to be found. So I grabbed my
lower level pokemon to share experience with my higher levels as we
traveled here. I go across the bridge to see what kind of pokemon I need
to beat Byron, and that's when you show up? When I have lower level
pokemon an am in a new town? I still beat your ass but not without
having to revive my best pokemon several times! Do you know how long it
is going to take for me to gain back a good reputation with those
creatures? How many times I am going to have to go back to Veilstone to
get them massages? I can only get one a day! Go... fuck... yourself!"
Each word was followed by a kick to the stomach. By this time, Barry
might have been unconscious from the pain. No one saw him moving. They
only heard groans.
Finished, Dawn spit on him, took his gym badge, and threw it into the canal before going to the gym to continue her business.
