Not even a week into his new adventures here on Hoenn, and his cell phone was sounding off just about every other minute. The blonde giant slacked his jaw and sighed, bringing his hand to his front pocket and fumbling around for the device. He lifted the phone to the side of his head, only to quickly recoil and wince in pain from the loud, boisterous voice echoing from the other line.
“EDWARD!! What are you doing?! I have been trying to call you all week! You better not have set my number to automatic voicemail.”
The female tone ringed from the speaker, laced with as much verbal venom as possible in order to terrify the young agent.
“Well, hey to you too, Gwen!” Ed spoke with a smile as he glanced down the long dirt path ahead of him. “I’ve just been hangin’ out, tryna get my bearings straight. This place is way different from Sinnoh.”
The thundering footsteps of Joupie soon made themselves known, easily alerting Ed to his partner’s immediate presence. The Electivire had his arms looped beneath his chest, forming the perfect cradle for the fresh berries that the Thunderbolt Pokemon had just acquired.
Edward peered to his left to meet Joupie’s gaze and return the Pokemon’s grin, albeit minus the sticky, colorful array of leftover berry mush around his lips. He pulled the phone slightly away from his ear, rolling his eyes as his Interpol contact, Gwen, barked her discrepancies. It produced a mischievous giggle from Joupie at the very least.
Once he could no longer hear Gwen’s voice absolutely butchering the phone, he lifted it to his ear once more, responding with a lazy ‘Ok’. While this only served to infuriate the woman more, Edward halted her aggression with a quick, “Oh, hey. I’m here! I gotta get up on finishing this mission that you so kindly vetted for me, peace!”
He clicked the red end call button and turned to his partner as they continued down Route 110 in search of what Edward could only describe as ‘Monkey Mayhem’.
“I say once we find these warring apes, we just blast ‘em with a Thunderbolt and call it a day. Whaddya think, Joupie?”
Electrical sparks danced around the two tips of Joupie’s tails as they slithered up into the air, looping over his shoulders to point straight ahead. “Zzzbbbbttzz!”
Ed’s smile only further stretched the length of his face before reaching over to pat the palm of his hand against his Pokemon’s back. “This is why I love you man, you’re always ready to go. Let’s go kick some ass!”
