Irae walked into the Nishihara building, sporting the small entourage of her pokémon. She glanced around as she whistled happily, thinking and generally being in a good mood.

The receptionist looked up as the cheery girl walked into the Eggery. The woman, a middle-aged, heavy-set woman with short brown hair and kind brown eyes (and wearing a red suit-like-thing) smiled kindly. "Hello there, and welcome to the Nishihara Eggery. How may I help you?"

Irae tilted her head a little bit at the receptionist before answering. "Oh... I was told that I could get an egg here," she said, smiling. "A, uh, Swablu egg." She took a few more moments to glance around, as she spoke, picking up where she had left off in whistling.

The receptionist nodded, and clicked a few keys on the keyboard. "Yep, we have a swablu egg. I'll have somebody show you to the egg room..."
There was a pause, a few more clicks, then a frown from the woman. She looked up apologetically. "Sorry, we're a bit short-staffed right now...I'll get you Sammy. Sammy!"
A college-aged girl with a black ponytail and blue eyes poked her head out of the room marked "Babies". "Yeah? I'm kinda busy with Shasta right now."
The woman pointed at Irae. "She wants the swablu egg. Can you take her to the egg rooms?"
The young woman shrugged. "I'll have to bring Shasta...let me get the sling."
"Fine by me," mumbled the receptionist as Sammy's head disappeared. A moment later, the woman stepped out of the babies room, complete with a light blue sling around her shoulders, covering up the standard red apron-uniform. Inside the sling was one of the babies, cooing happily in the general direction of Sammy's head. The baby, a pink dratini with scarily blank white eyes, nestled herself up against her caretaker's chest, smiling through her world of darkness.
The woman wrapped an arm around the dragon, holding her steady. Sammy grinned at Irae. "Sorry, I have to bring Shasta with us. You said you wanted the swablu egg, right?" She stepped into the egg room, running her hands along rows of large, multicolored file folders.

Irae watched the blind dratini for a few moments before nodding and giggling a little. "Uh-huhs. I don't mind. She's very cute." She twitched her cat-like ears happily and smiled at both Sammy and Shasta.

Shasta swiveled her head inthe direction of Irae, cooing happily. Sammy smiled, pausing after taking a file out. "You can pet her head, if you want."
She then opened the file, and muttered "Egg 002, right..." before putting the file down on the table. She then looked at Irae. "Okay, I have to ask you a few questions first. First of all, how long have you been a trainer? Do you have experience raising young Pokemon? Do you have any Pokemon with you who you feel are qualified to help you raise an egg?"

Irae gently pet the dratini as she listened to the questions. "Oh, I've been a trainer for a few years running now in other regions. Back at home I used to raise wild dragons when I was little. And... well, there is my Misdreavus..." She answered each question as they came, smiling as she continued to pet the cute little pink dragon.

"Okay...can I see your trainer card and misdreavus, then?" Sammy asked, holding the squirming Shasta steady. "I just need to check...but other than that, as long as you have the money, you can have Egg 002."

Irae took out her trainer card and a pokéball from her belt. She tossed up the pokéball lightly to let out the Misdreavus as she handed Sammy the card. "Here yah go."

Sammy glanced at the card, then swiped it in a nearby machine. She scanned the page brought up, then handed back the card to Irae. She then looked at Misdreavus.
"Hi there, do you have a name?"
The ghost smiled. "<Nope. But that's okay, I don't mind. Anyway, why am I here?>"
Sammy pointed to an egg displayed in a large incubator-type shelf-area. "Your trainer, Miss Strife, wants to buy that egg. I'm just doing a background check to make sure she can handle it. She recommended you for aide during the raising of the Pokemon. Do you feel up to it?"
The yellow ghost smiled. "<Oh, sure! I love babies! My teammates may not help much, but I'll be sure to do my best and give the little one the best care I can.>"
Sammy paused. "If the Pokemon - it's a swablu - started crying for food, what would you give it?"
Misdreavus thought for a moment. "<Something soft? I don't think babies can often eat hard food...oh, it's a bird, right? Aren't pecha berries good for their stomachs and intestines?>"
The woman nodded. "Yup. Okay...thanks." Shifting Shasta into a better position, she walked over to the egg, and carefully took it out. She stepped lightly over to Irae. "Okay, you can buy the egg if you want. The asking price is 4000 pyen. You get a free egg-holder with it, but if you want to pay 1000 pyen more, you can get an incubating egg-holder, which speeds up the time your Pokemon will spend in the egg."

Irae took out her bag and started fishing out for the money before she remembered something. "Oh! I just remembered... I talked to the Altaria trainer, ummm, Ame, right? Yeah, anyways, I already sent half of the total price in a while back since she said I could have the egg... she said she sent the pyen here?"

Sammy blinked. "She did? Wait a sec...I'll go check." Holding Shasta carefully, she walked out of the room to check with the computers. A few minutes later, she returned. "Yep, she did. Okay...so you gave her 2000 pyen...which means the egg will cost another 2000 pyen for you. If you want the incubating holder, it'll be a total of 3000 pyen."
((I have a female altaria in Emerald. Her name is Wata. Wata means cotton in Japanese. ^_^ 'Cept my Emerald trainer's name is Nami...-_-;;;
Oh, and if I were you, I'd fork over the extra thousand pyen. If you don't, it'll end up hatching really late...))

(*licks Nyaa* :-p)
Irae nodded some and fished out three thousand pyen slowly, having to count it over a few times before sure of herself. "Okay, here you go!" She giggles as she handed Sammy the money.

Sammy took the money, and left to put it in the register. She came back with an incubated egg-holder, and carefully lifted the blue-and-white egg into it. After making sure it was fastened shut, she handed it to Irae with a smile. "Feel free to call us with any questions or concerns! And thanks for adopting the egg!"

Irae smiled as she took the egg and it's holder. "Otay! I will. Thanks!" Irae held it up with one hand as she waved and left.
