Sky wasn't too sure what she was doing here. Then she remembered. A favor for a friend. Right.

She found the guy in charge and approached him. "Hey. Can I get a Tundragoon and a Shinzo, please? That'll be all. Just 4 EP."

I'm so cool (too bad I'm a loser).
I'm so smart (too bad I can't get anything figured out)!
I'm so brave (too bad I'm a baby).
I'm so fly
That's probably why it feels just like I'm falling for the first time!

I'm so green (it's really amazing).
I'm so clean (too bad I can't get all the dirt off of me)!
I'm so sane (It's driving me crazy)!
It's so strange
I can't believe I'm falling for the first time!

It would appear that she had two points left! Tommy thankfully, hadn't been sent back though this load was probably a lot more tame then the last. Now it was actually Celtic! Apparently this last one was quite special to her, one that she wanted to be sure she got exactly what she had asked for since Tommy had messed up the order a bit last time. The silly thing had chosen something that she obviously didn't want. But oh well. What is done is done, and for now she'd house all the pets she had room for. And speaking of new pets..

Celtic cleared her throat before she got to the uh... 'cashier.' She didn't know what else to call it. "Um yes, I'd like a Candle Lubshi please? Here are the points needed." Flashing a little smile, Celtic placed the pay on the counter as she awaited her new little bundle of joy.

As she walked along the room she became increasingly unsure of what she should buy. There were cages upon cages here, some containing creatures she had already and some containing creatures she had wished for a long while ago. Now that she was among them, she began to wonder if she still wished for some of those on her wish list. It was a while ago since she had revised it and not having too many points to spend made her wary of even beginning...

After a few moments of thought she discovered that there was still one creature she knew she would still like to buy, so she would start off there. Eventually she was bound to determine what else she would like, right?

"I would like to buy 1x Merkuhna for 110 Egg Points."

She'd picked up creatures that weren't prone to ripping off the heads of others at a mere whim and instead she'd gotten split personalities, emotionless beings, presumed-to-be-secret-agent-giant-orange-moths and the gods knew what else in her house.

Reap strutted into the store, looking at the surrounding cages with his big keen blue eyes. Theia had left the ranch again to have yet another adventure Zu'hai-knows-where and so the self appointed Zoo Manager had come in her stead to order more pet prizes. He didn't mind at all of course, he preferred it this way in fact as there would be no more new surprise pets being randomly dropped off at the Ranch that he didn't know anything about. He was still in the process of finding rooms for the new inhabitants but had taken some time off to deal with the urgent matter involving contest prizes. He purred contentedly up at the man behind the counter before rattling off a sizeable list of pets that he had memorised "2 Bleached Felloxes, 1 Slydra, 1 Malice Worm and 1 Pengi to be sent to Arya Elfbane and 1 Calamikuhna, 1 Squeaker, 1 Aurona, 1 Doom Kitty, 1 Learf, 1 Sun Learf, 1 Shinzo and 1 Candle Shinzo to be sent to Amellina. That should be 59 EP" he did not speak politely, but instead with the manner of one whom is used to being obeyed immediately without question (though in actuality there were quite a few pets at the Zoo who constantly argued with him or ignored him outright). Reap tossed a small money pouch up to the man with his tails before stalking out of the room and climbing the ladder to leave.

Jared walked into the store, a sheepish smile on his face.
"Yep, I'm here again," he told Katcheres.  "Hopefully this will be the last time for a while!  One Slydra, please."

The Lucain strode in nervously, looking around to make sure no one she knew was watching. Purchases like this one rather embarassed Nightstrider, even if she was puchasing it of her own free will. After all, she couldn't exactly explain why she wanted the creature, and she surefire wasn't going to lie.

"I'd like a Lushi, please. The Egg Point I got from Sire Thunder should give me just enough to purchase it."

She stopped to take a rest in a tree near the shop. The figure took the short time to groom itself and fluff its fur just a bit. Only its baby blue eyes could be seen slightly glowing from where she was perched. Looking around to make sure the coast was clear, the figure leaped out of the tree pulling four tails behind it?
The pure fenling dashed into the shop quickly, it's fur in a very well-kept state, easily glimmering in the shop's artificial lights. It looked around wondering where she was supposed to go. She immediately found the shop owner standing behind a desk. Daia leaped onto the desk smoothly, her two collars clinking together from the movement. She lay the drool-proof notepaper in front of the shopkeeper.

"Greetings again from Akida! This is Daia she does marvelously when sent on an errand and I am sure she has made it safely to you. I'd like to order two more pets if you will.
One Baby Doom Kitty
One Doom Kitty

Both shall be sent to mousenheath. Thank you again.

P.S. Do you think you can give Daia a treat before she leaves?


The gleaming fenling had been looking at the shopkeeper hopefully the whole time.

Spot ran into the shop, his mouth open and panting heavily.
He jumped up and down excitedly.
Barking loudly to get the shop keepers attention.
It was strange how this pet had gotten in.
But it had to be here for a reason.
There was a message attached to his bow.

"Sorry I could not come in person, but I hope my pet has gotten this message to you as he was sent to do. If you could allow me to purchase a Bleached Fellox and Treasure Rollady. And have them follow my Dalma home? I would be greatly appreciated, thank you for your time and don't forget to take the 4 EP from around his neck."

The Dalma barked again and spun around in a circle.
He seemed very excited to be here.

Instead of the grumpy Lucain who had entered before, a new and seemingly happier female walked through the door.  Adeline morphed into human form, her deep red curls bouncing as she hopped up to the counter.
"Excuse me, may I have a Standard Armless Onpachu, a Magma Creeper, a Bleached Fellox, a Sky Serraptor, a Treasure Magistry, and a cute little Treasure Rollaby please?  That should be 12 EP, leaving us with no more left."  Smiling sweetly, she waited until they were all brought out, and they trailed her back to the Village.  "Thanks," Adeline called out before she left.


I think back to the time when my search first began,
I left behind those shores of sand
For the endless everlasting world out there.

I know that with this burning passion driving me
Someday, somewhere I'll finally see
The light I have searched for everywhere!

It’s mistress had sent it here with specific instructions not to come away empty handed. As Messenger of the Dawn, the Khimera was incensed about being reduced to nothing more than a mere note deliverer. But if it was the will of it’s mistress, then her will would be done. With a feline-like sigh, the giant cat padded towards the shop and through the door, waiting patiently for someone to exit the shop so it didn’t have to stand awkwardly outside waiting for the door to be opened. It took great care in keeping it’s teeth from piercing the list, and keeping it’s tails from knocking anyone over. It’s ears flicked forward as it reached the counter, where it lifted it’s giant body up by it’s back paws, placing it’s front paws on the counter to keep it balanced. It carefully deposited the list onto the counter with a long suffering sigh, before it patiently dropped back to the floor. The note read; 1 Common Hunter, if you would.”

I love adventurous tales like that. That uplifting feeling that comes from seeing unknown lands and the knowledge that you came across—nothing can replace it! It opens a path from which self-confidence, experience, and important friendships—from the sharing of life or death situations—are born! But hearing it just isn’t the same. I want to create my own magnificent story!



A great adventure!

The girl waltzed through the crowd, a wallet in one hand and a leash in the other. After a quick dip in the ocean and a little bit of trading, she finally had enough egg points. Waiting in line patiently, she sneaked peaks at what other costumers were getting. She saw so many colorful creatures, frightening beasts, oh how she wished she had more EP! But, she would be content with what she planned on getting.
Once she reached the counter, she smiled politely and placed down the needed 35 EP, saying, "Hey there, I'd like a... Lakundra, if you please."

"I don't like this place. Seems a bit shady." Mirage hissed, taking each step with such precaution that it could take centuries to reach their destination. Aurora stood beside her, stars in her eyes, scoping out anything and everything in this most peculiar place.

"Oh hush. You ruin everything." The Lucain muttered back to her. She could hear Mirage huff in annoyance but took no notice. Nothing could ruin this day for her, not even her moody companion! "Now if you're going to be sour for the whole time then you best go home. But if you're actually dedicated to this mission then you may stay and assist me."

Mirage rolled her eyes at Aurora's word. Mission? HA. She would hardly call spending money a 'mission.' In fact it was more of a waste of time, but would Little Miss Stubborn over there ever believe her? Of course not. "Fine fine, don't have a cow. But this place just gives off a weird vibe to me, alright?" Aurora nodded but her focus remained on finding the person in charge of the distribution of gifts. Oh this was so exciting!

Minutes past when Mirage finally found the front "desk" and ushered Aurora forward as quickly as possible. The sooner Ro got what she was looking for, the sooner she could escape this horrendous place!

"Hello there, my friend needs you." Mirage said hurriedly. Aurora blushed and pulled Mirage back fast. "Mirage please! That s hardly the way to do business!" She exclaimed. Mirage grimaced and pointed her transparent paw towards the owner. "Then why don't you show me how it's done, oh great one?" She asked with mock sincerity. Aurora glared but stepped forward.

"I would like one Baby Doom Kitty (2) if you please." She said with a smile.

The golden eyes of the Malachite Hunter narrowed as they compared the address on this building's nameplate to the memory of the one on the ticket. The destinations matched, unfortunately. What kind of reward would be found in a destination as shabby looking as this? The Hunter felt it was within its rights to be a little suspicious, and gave the building another long, hard look. Since the old brick structure neither confessed its secrets nor gave any indication of being a hideout for thieves and scoundrels, the Hunter was forced to resort to other methods. "Mistress, we're here," it rumbled and the lump on its stone back stirred.

A Hunter's back, being made of stone and rather hard, was an unforgiving and decidedly uncomfortable place to sleep. Whoever the human companion of the Hunter was didn't seem to notice, and instead appeared quite comfortable as they poked their head out of the blankets. The female human made a serious of muttered sounds and the Hunter by some miracle must have understood, because it moved forward while the human settled back into sleep. The female remained comatose and oblivious while the Hunter dealt with the shopkeeper and barely fit itself through the door of the tiny room with the trap door. The great beast waited for the shopkeeper to make it to the bottom and clear out of the way before ignoring the ladder entirely and descending in one great leap to the basement room.

The lights flicker on and the stone cat is stunned for a moment by this room's vast size and the onslaught of noise on its sensitive ears. Wishing to be out of here as soon as possible, it tries a second time to rouse the human on its back. The Hunter is rewarded with a loud groan and a muffled plea for the noise to stop. "Feeling any better?" the cat inquires politely. Without receiving a response it continues, "You would have been better by now if you had gone to see a doctor when you first got sick. You really must get over this ridiculous dislike of such things, or your health will suffer for it." Banded green stone flashes in the weak artificial lighting as the Hunter crouches down so its belly touches the floor. "Now, you need to get up for a bit. Go find someone to take home with us, and I promise you can go back to sleep and we'll go home."

When it is clear the Hunter will keep pestering until its orders are obeyed, the human half-slides, half-falls off and huddles in a pile of blankets at its side. Humor with a tinge of sympathy in golden eyes, the Malachite Hunter nudges the human female with a cold stone nose and the human obediently rises, leaning against the Hunter's side for support. Glazed, bloodshot eyes gaze with little interest from a fever-flushed face at the surrounding cages. The Hunter clears its throat meaningfully and the female throws it a very dirty look before unsteadily moving around the room's perimeter. Very quickly a suitable match is found - a Squeaker is their first purchase. The female totes it around like a beloved plush toy and the little animal seems grateful enough to be let out of its cage to allow her. She pauses in front of another cage, letting out a few sniffles as she considers. Yes, Murcielago will appreciate a female Merkuhna as a mate. The kuhna is released by the shopkeeper and waits by the Hunter's side for the human to finish, tails waving merrily. When the human starts to droop and give the occasional sneeze, the Hunter indicates to the shopkeeper that they are done for the day. It turns back to collect its charge and her purchases, but stops short out of momentary shock. The Hunter sighs, and knows somehow that this will end up being its fault. "One Obsidian Hunter also, sir."



Of all the things I've lost, I miss my mind the most.

The little Quickslyph fluttered down the trapdoor.
Once at the bottom, she flew around excited.
"Oh, so many pets to choose from." She said in a pleasant voice.
She fluttered around for few more minutes before noticing the other Quickslyph.
She fly over to him quickly, stopping just a few inches in front of his face.
"Oh, are you  the one we purchase from?" She asked.
She smiled sweetly then backed off a bit.
"Well, hm, I guess I'll take one of those Harbringer and a Tundragoon." She finally decided, bitting her fingernail.
She handed over the 4 EP and smiled again.
"Thank you so very much." She finished, hiding her arms behind her back.
