"I'm not sure why I'm having to be carried around, but okay then if they want to," Seth thought, as he slowly took a deep breath. The turtle Pokémon kept a firm grip on his bag, while he noted the nightly ambience that surrounded his body.

"Loud noises detected nearby, nearby location likely hostile," Handi said to itself in a monotone, before Pacen turned to the infant.
"Y- yeah... I also heard what was maybe like a cry, shout or something. I think it might be better to go somewhere else since it's already dark right now," Pacen replied, as he stared at the dark skies for a brief moment.
"I agree with you, because it may be dangerous to be out in this time," Handi responded, as it took swift notice of a nearby pathway soon after.
"There's this gate that's been left open, maybe they forgot to close it I guess," Pacen thought, before he led the way to the gateway.
"Did you see that glowing thing above? I am curious about what thing was," Handi inquired the Pancham, as it carefully adjusted its bonnet in a discreet manner.
"It looked like some sort of white ball thingy, I think my trainer used to call them pearls or something like that. They're a good thing to keep, wear on or even sell to people for quite a bit of money," Pacen replied to Handi, as he noticed the infant with its attempts to keep up with the Pancham.
"Command recognized. Adding in definition: Pearl... a small white, ball-shaped item that is worn on, kept or sold to people for money," Handi stated to itself, as the activity in its processors spiked up soon after.
"Huh... there's someone going inside along with another person in that thing. Is that like their home or what... and if it is, I seriously could go for a huge drink right now," Pacen thought, before he felt his somewhat dry mouth with his tongue.
"Should we go talk to those people?" Handi asked, as it slowly rubbed on its sky blue, one-piece, lightweight garment it had on.
"I guess, but I think you might have to handle it since I don't think they can understand me," Pacen answered, as Handi's head twitched for a split second.
"Handle it? I am not sure if they would be okay with someone like me talking and acting like this," Handi responded, before it gazed towards the girl that made their first moments into the structure from earlier.
"I will try... but I am not really so great at this. The master does not usually like me talking to other people, he usually does that for me or lets me do it sometimes if he is with me," Handi added, as Pacen gulped and gave a deep sigh at the child.
"Look pal, is your master here? I don't see him anywhere... around here... right now!" Pacen retorted, as Handi recoiled away from the Pancham.
"No, but I still have to follow the rules!" Handi shouted in a high, infantile tone, as Pacen covered his ears for a brief moment.
"Alright, alright! Sheesh! No need to be screaming about it! We'll at least try to do it together then!" Pacen reciprocated, before he turned towards the direction of the nearby girl with a Poké Ball.
"Okay, I have copied that. Let us do it together then," Handi promptly said, before the two slowly approached the other people in the calmest manner possible.
