Rustboro Clinic - Rustboro City - Hoenn Region @Wriggle


"Thanks for your help," Sherry replied before taking off down the halls.

The clinic smelled strange, yet all too familiar to the agent. Sterilized chambers, men in white garb, rubber gloves, and clean tools all reminded Sherry of a time when she should have been outside rolling in the grass or playing with friends. Instead, she was poked and prodded with needles, quarantined from the rest of society as officials tried to figure out the virus contained within her body. If it hadn't been for bioterrorism, she would have lived a normal life. But now that she was outside, Sherry aspired to make the best of what time she had.

She ducked into the room that the receptionist told her about and laid her eyes on the patient within. With a smile, she approached him and stood at his bedside.

"Doing better? Feel free to say no," Sherry giggled, "because if you don't feel better, you're going to feel better real soon."

To prove her point, she gestured for Madame von Crispsuit to approach with the Slakoth.

"Ah, what do you mean by tha-" The trainer raised his eyebrow, but when Yuuka brought in the Pokeball, it was clear to the trainer what Sherry meant. "You... got my Slakoth back...?"

"He's safe and sound." Yuuka smiled as she tossed the Pokeball back to the trainer.

"I... I don't know how to thank you..." The trainer gasped. Sherry could see that he had drops of tear coming from his eyes. "How can I ever repay this debt?"

This. This was what Sherry strived to see when she got off of work. She wanted to see the fruits of her labor hanging from low branches for all to see. She wanted to know that her efforts were not in vain. Seeing that the man was shaking with appreciation from such a random act of kindness was all Sherry wanted to see and more. Perhaps this was how Leon and Claire felt when they rescued the small Sherry from Raccoon City, and if so, the agent understood it perfectly. Her smile widened and she shook her head.

"There's no need to repay anybody," Sherry answered. "All that I ask is that you get better. You've got your partner back, and I bet he's missed you."

"I... If I see you again, I'll make sure to repay you!" The trainer nodded in determination and thankfulness.


"Okay, so we gave back the Slakoth to the trainer, now what do we have to do next?" Yuuka asked Sherry as the two left the clinic. The sun was hanging by the western side, but it was still a long way until the night hits.

Sherry thought for a moment on Yuuka's question. Time wasn't their enemy, but Sherry had no desire to linger in one place longer than she needed to. The two had done what they can in Rustboro with Team Anarchy, and the Devon Corp. had given out their task for the agent. There was no time limit listed, and the two had all the time in the world to complete their respective tasks. Yet, once again, Sherry had no desire to stay in Rustboro any longer.

She glanced up at the sun before pointing towards the south.

"We go back to Captain Briney and get ourselves a free ride to Dewford Town. I've got a package to deliver there," Sherry said, as if it justified her going there. She looked back at Yuuka. "But what about you? What are you going to do once we deliver the flag to the Captain?"

"Well I was thinking of challenging the gym here..." Yuuka contemplated as a policeman and a brunette girl approached the duo.

Sherry blinked and contemplated Yuuka's suggestion. It seemed that she wasn't the only one in the party who had things to do. If Yuuka wanted to challenge the gym, then Sherry figured she could at least stay awhile and support her. Roxanne was a tough cookie, but having a Pokemon who was resilient to hard blows would be her downfall.

"Hmm... I suppose staying here for the night wouldn't hurt, and you could go off and challenge Roxanne, the gym leader, if you wanted to," Sherry said. She smiled again. "I bet your Lotad would be perfect to fight against her rocky party. Just watch out for her-"

The agent was cut off when she noticed the policeman and brunette girl approaching them.

"Hmm? Officer?"

"I heard reports of two trainers single-handedly taking out Team Anarchy's hideout." The policeman saluted. The brunette, looking bout 16 or so, stood next to him dignifyingly. Didn't Sherry... See her before?

"According to the reports, it says that the two trainers were female at about the age of early to mid 20s... Blonde and green-haired... A Taillow hanging nearby... You all seem to match the description. Are you two the two trainers that attacked Team Anarchy's hideout?"

"I'm 27," Sherry replied, near indignant. She glanced to the brunette and tried to jog her memory, but she could not remember her at all. "And yes, we're the two trainers you're looking for."

There was no reason to be suspicious of the policeman or brunette, but there was reason to be a little miffed. Age was a touchy subject for the G-virus agent. Because of her 'childhood', her youthful appearance was maintained while her abilities were strengthened. She hated her mask, and she hated it even more when people looked at her and saw a little girl. But, she had done so much already to prove herself as a woman now.

"Good. We found the right people." The brunette nodded and stepped forward. "I would like to represent everyone in Rustboro City and thank you two for your brave actions."

"Who are you to do such a thing?" Yuuka asked the brunette, who smiled and showed her golden badge with two ridges on it: Stone Badge.

"My name is Roxanne," Roxanne announced. "Gym leader of this city. And I would like to bestow you, as a token of honor, this Stone Badge to the brave trainer who sought out to defeat an aching tumor in the city's safety."
