Prasha Kesiem's Exotic Foods and Sweets.

Zandrophin had taken some time away from his administrative duties to get out amongst the people. His company was picking up steam and his name was becoming rather well-known throughout the city. He'd brought more money into this city than it had seen in a long time..the citizens even told him so. He decided to go check up on Prasha and his satellite business. He was talking to, of all people, Nicole.

Hmm...she managed to make her way here. Interesting.

Prasha was in the midst of a conversation, two of his Pokemon laughing wildly. Zandrophin decided to give them both a bit of a scare.

"See what I have to deal with everyday?"

"Yes...I most certainly do...."

Zandrophin strolled up to the stand and placed a hand on the counter.

"Good day, Miss Nicole...nice to see you again."

Without looking away from her, Zandrophin continued,

"Prasha...how's business?"

Nicole was unable to answer Prasha's question as the sound of hands being placed on the stall counter was heard followed by:

"Yes...I most certainly do...."

Surprised by the familiar voice she looked over and was greeted by the familiar figure of Zandrophin, one of the people she had met at that festival a while back.

"Good day, Miss Nicole...nice to see you again."

He then said causing her to give a small nod of acknowledgement while muttering: "Uh...  Hi...  Again...."

By Nero was a little more awake, but he was still glaring at the two laughing Pokemon, a small rumble going on in the back of his throat forming a muffled growl.  He may be a sweet Pokemon when he was fully rested and awake, but when he is woken up prematurely...  Not so much... especially if it wasn't Nicole who had awakened him.

"Nero, down.  No you cannot Ember those two."  Nicole chided pulling the Vulpix closer as Prasha offered tea.  "Um...  If you don't mind."  She agreed.

Prasha passed Zan and Mentus their usual. The piping hot tea still steamed in their cups. Prasha garnished their cups with Figi Slices. Prasha then served Nicole a cup of tea as well.

Toxy, Nachos, and Rocky stared at Zan. Then Rocky trying to hold back his laughter looked at Toxy and Nachos, who were giggiling on the insides and Rocky mocked Zan behind his back pretending to be macho and burst into laughter again.

"Ok you guys knock it off. I know you three had a funny day, but come on." Prasha coaxed each of his buddies and they all stopped laughing and took sips of their beverages. 

"Haha. Zan They won't listen to you." Prasha chuckled a bit and removed his Shop Apron then took his white Tee off revealing 4 new Tribal Tattoo patterns down his back before he switched to a white muscle shirt. "We are closing up for the day, we wont get more customers. I know that for a fact." 

Prasha jumped onto a pull up bar and began pulling up in a fast rhythm. Prasha dropped down and playfully threw punches at Rocky. 

Prasha grinned a bit. " I'm sorry Nicole, it was a quick change." Prasha stretched out, cracking his back and neck. 

"Hey you two, knock it off." Prasha tapped Rocky's head and pinched Toxy. "We have guests here." The two Pokemon calmed down and slouched in their chairs.

"Better yet, go make your selves useful and go clean the dishes." Prasha pointed at the stack of dishes and Rocky and Toxy instantly stopped laughing and started cleaning. "If you do a good job, I just might give you guys some ice cream tonight." Hearing this Nachos jumped up and ran over to the dishes and the three cleaned faster than a Dodtrio running from an Aracanine.

Mariko was making her way through the market place picking up items that she was going to need for her new clinic. Some of the items she needed though didn't seem to be sold here. That was going to be a problem. "Honestly... With the amount of trade we do, you would think that I would be able to find the items I need." She muttered.

As she passed by one of the stalls, that seemed to be closed for the day, she was stunned to hear a ruckus coming from inside. "Are they being robbed?" She questioned going over to the stall.

Nicole sighed and placed her finished cup down on the table. "Well, I think it's time I get going. It's getting late and should be heading back to my campsite right now. Thank you for the tea. And don't I still owe you for the berries?" She asked standing up from her seat, shifting Nero so that he would be comfortable in her arms. "Oh yeah, thanks for the curry too." She said quickly before she forgot.

Nicole nodded her thanks. "If I'm ever in the area again, I'll come visit. Bye Prasha, Zandrophin." She said making sure to mention the other man at the stall. She then began to walk away, passing by the woman still outside the stall watching everything in confusion. She needed to get to her campsite and plan out where she was going to go next.
