It was a long day for Noel, spending most of his day in the city to restock on his supplies. He decided he wanted to unwind tonight, but also gather information. And what better place to hear gossip than a local bar. There were a few to choose from but he settled on one that seemed to be a good fit for him. Wearing his pokeballs on his belt for he could never know when trouble might start, he walks inside and takes a look around, not too many people were occupying the space which was perfect for him, he liked secluded areas more.[break][break]

The bar had a classic flair to it that Noel enjoyed, more simple and refined. He takes a seat at one of the stools in front, surveying all the different drinks and meeting eyes with the bartender. He gives her a gentle smile and a soft wave of the hand. Noel then calls out to her for a simple request.[break][break]

"Hello miss, I was hoping you could pour me a drink for tonight."[break][break]

The night was no different for Camellia. Serving drinks, keeping the bar tidy, and making sure no one caused trouble. It was the usual tasks, ones she'd gotten used to over years of practice. Even if she hadn't worked at this particular place for long, the routine was second nature to her.[break][break]

Out of the corner of her eye, she spotted a new customer waving her down. She nodded, finishing the beer she was pouring before sliding the pint forward.[break][break]

"I'm cutting you off if you act rowdy like last time, got it, Nick?" she said firmly, patting the bar with a hand without hearing the man's response.[break][break]

Flashing a smile, Camellia placed both hands on the bar top. "You're not too familiar. What's your poison?"

Noel took a moment to think, it wasn't often he drank alcohol his knowledge of the craft was limited. He remembered of one particular type that he hoped would be the right thing to say, although his pockets were pretty light and he couldn't afford much if anything. He turns to the bartender and answers her question.[break][break]

"I'd like to have one of your best wine please ma'am. How has your day been treating you?"[break][break]

Noel was a pretty poor judge of character, from the outside he thought of this barkeep as just an ordinary citizen, not knowing of the deep secrets any person could hold. At this point he completely trusted this stranger, having no reason to doubt her. He eagerly awaited his drink as he continued to smile warmly. His hands joined together, resting on the table.[break][break]

"I hope no one has given you any trouble yet."[break][break]

Camellia allowed a smirk to rest on her lips. "Some fine wine? Give me a moment to grab one that might fit your taste." She disappeared from the bar for a moment, looking through the stock of wine until she selected one that she thought might do.[break][break]

Pulling a wine glass from beneath the counter, she poured a glass, extending it to him. "Pinot blanc, from Anistar, Kalos. It's a sweet, white wine, and you may experience some other hinted fruit flavors blended in as well," she explained.[break][break]

She couldn't help a small laugh that rose from her throat. "That's kind of you to be concerned. I can handle things, though. Nick caused a ruckus last time he was here, but I believe he's learned his lesson."[break][break]

Camellia's eyes cut across to the man sipping away at his beer, now accompanied by someone else.[break][break]

"What brings you around Rustboro?"

Before responding Noel takes a quick sip of his wine. He brings the glass up to his lips and after letting out a satisfied "Ahh..." He places the wine glass back down onto the table and continues his conversation with the friendly lady.[break][break]

"Well you see... I'm on a bit of a mission. I'm on the hunt for members of the organization Rocket and was told I'd be able to find some in this city. But so far no luck. I wouldn't suppose you know anything about them do you miss?"[break][break]

Perhaps he shouldn't be saying this out loud, even more to someone he only just met. But he was completely oblivious on the matters of subtlety. He would never think that any person he met could be a member of Rocket, he only assumed finding out who they are would be pretty obvious based on reports of their activities. He looks into Camellia's eyes with an innocent stare, hopefully his luck would turn up and he could find a lead here.[break][break]

His explanation surely took her by surprise, though Camellia held a straightforward look. The only emotion she gave away was an impressed one, her eyebrows raising up with a small chuckle from her chest.[break][break]

"That's a bold statement. What if I was in Rocket? Wouldn't you have put yourself in a dangerous position asking that so openly?"[break][break]

She knew others in the bar were listening into the conversation as well. dorian westcliff was the owner of the bar, and many Rocket individuals frequented the area.[break][break]

"Luckily for you, I'm not. But, I've heard of their dealings around the area. What makes you want to hunt them down, if I may ask?" Camellia asked, lying through her teeth.[break][break]

She leaned against the counter, raising a brow. "It's dangerous to get involved in their mess, you know. The League and Rocket. My recommendation would be to stay out of it."

Her words of caution were noted by Noel. Yet he had no choice in the matter as this was a request by the League themselves and he couldn't turn down a mission from them. He would honestly reply to her questions and comments. Still thinking of her has nothing but a ordinary barkeep attending to her shop.[break][break]

"I... can't really stand all the things they've done in the past and what they're doing now. Seeing good people hurt in front of me just gets me into a rage I can't control."[break][break]

His free hand curls up into a fist as his demeanor changes, his face now filled with anger at the thought of Rocket being able to do what they want without anyone to stop them. He loosens up when he realizes that he was in the company of a citizen and it wouldn't look good on him to lose himself here.[break][break]

"I appreciate your concern Miss but this is something I have to do. As much as I don't like doing what the League tells me to do, it's still one way of stopping Rocket and so I'll play along with them for now."[break][break]

So that's how it was. Camellia could see clearly the type of person he was, since this appeared to be a legitimate act. The hero type, coming to save the day. A typical view for a newly recruited League member to have... unless he had someone that was hurt by Rocket in the past.[break][break]

But she knew that these always fell harder.[break][break]

"I understand. Well, you fight your own battles, and I fight mine. Be careful of them, though. Even the League isn't as picture perfect as it seems."

Finishing the last bit of wine from his glass, he places it down onto the table and lets off a light chuckle. [break][break]

"Don't worry, I'm using them about as much as they're using me. And if I found out they're just as bad as Rocket, then I'll take them down too."[break][break]

He looks up to take note of the clock hanging overhead of the bar, it had gotten fairly late since he arrived and he stands up from his stool. Bringing out his wallet, he grabs hold of the required Pokedollars and sets it onto the table in front of the bartender.[break][break]

"Well, thank you for your time miss but its about time I head off. Its gotten pretty late and I'll probably have better luck on my mission somewhere else and another time. You be careful now and if we see each other again let me know of any trouble you might have."[break][break]

With a wave of his hand, he sets out from the bar, heading back home none the wiser of how close he was to a Rocket member. In his mind it was just a normal night out with nothing truly exciting occurring. He never asked for the lady's name, a shame, Noel thought, but their paths would more than likely not cross again. After all, she was just an ordinary citizen in an ordinary bar.[break][break]
