Gumnisa tries to keep a pleasant smile on her face as she speaks to the girl.
"My friend here was attacked by a wild Mightyena, she's badly injured and bleeding from her shoulder. My Rowlet was also knocked unconscious by it. She managed to catch it, so all three will need medical attention."
She then realized she was forgetting her manners.
"I'm sorry, my name is Brandy Williams. We work at and run the Baker Street Detective Agency, nice to meet you miss...?"

The woman smiles at you self-depreciatingly. "It's Joy while on the job dear. You know that." Then she frowned more seriously. "The Mightyeana... How would you describe it's temperament and would you be able to keep it calm?" she asks.

Gumnisa smiled at her.
"I figured maybe you'd give me your real name. All the same, it was highly aggressive and violently hostile. It has injuries to suggest it may have been forcible banished from its pack or had been owned by an abusive trainer. We were able to catch it inside a Friend Ball so it'll be more amenable to us; or her, rather."

If she was frowning before, she was positively scowling now. She looked over the pair of you and then hit the intercom. "Stretcher and bite kit to the front," she said into the mic. She released the button and looked back at them. "Let's deal with the easy ones first then."
Soon an Audino with a nurse's hat came quickly waddling out of the back, pushing a cart that also had a box on the top of it. She turned to Lily. "If you wouldn't mind sitting in the room on the left, we can patch you up." Then she turned back to Gumnasia. "Let your Rowlett out on the stretcher. Audino can take it from there."

Lily nods and shuffles her way toward the room on the left, feeling a woozy from blood loss.

Gumnisa nodded, not arguing with the older woman. She released Wichu onto the stretcher, bending down to kiss his forehead before allowing them to take him away.
"I'll be here when you wake up Wičhúŋt’e, my darling."
She looked back up the nurse and spoke to her.
"Thank you."

Taylor's shoulders sagged with a loud sigh. "So you... reported it to the police, then. Here I thought you lucked into some sorta sweepstakes prize maybe." He threw himself into a chair as Misha ate, kicking his feet up onto a second one. "Ah well. Another day, another not enough dollars! Maybe the others had more luck. So what was up with those 'street rats'? Maybe I know 'em."

Misha sits down on the table, shaking her head at Taylor's first comment. "Nah, haven't told the cops yet. Wanted to talk things over with you guys first. Things could get risky if we move too fast on this."
She shrugs at his question about the urchins. "I dunno. Just a bunch of kids, scared and alone, trying to stay out of the system. They were holed up in the docks, abandoned warehouse. You know how it is. Never got much of a look at them, kinda messed up my approach of them." She shrugs again, taking another bite.

"Tell the police?" Chris asked, aghast! "We're not going to tell the police! This is exactly what we need!" She sat across from Taylor, placing her hands on the table and leaning forward. "Imagine if we crack this...whatever it is...wide open! And I'll get to write about it before any of the other reporters! We'd get so much attention!"
Speaking of attention, as she completed her exclamations, Chris checked in on her bird-cam, seeing if anything had changed.

Artemis hears a garbage can lid rattle down a street somewhere nearby. The bird is tired, cannot see much of anything and is nervous. She just wants to go back home as soon as possible because she doesn't think she'll be of any help right now or tomorrow if she has to keep watch throughout the night.
The nurse nods to Gumnasia and follows Lily into the room. The Audino tingles off a "Di!" and moves the Rowlett into an operation room.
Lily and the Nurse appear from their side room after fifteen minutes, though the light is still on for Wičhúŋt’e. He should be done soonish.
Then the nurse hits the intercom again. "Stretcher and a Sleep Powder to the front desk." She flicked the intercom off and turned to Lily and Gumnasia. "Given what you've told me, it will probably be easier to treat the Mightyena while it's asleep rather than awake. Pokémon that were abused tend to have an even rockier time with a new trainer than most. And that's not including any other problems there might be."

Lily nods and hands her Randy's pokeball. "How long do you think it'll take?"

Gumnisa stood next to Lily quietly as she waited for her Pokemon and to see how things with the Rowley went.

She gives Lily a wan smile. "Do I look psychic to you?" She waits for an Audino and a Parasect to scuttle and waddle forward. "I'll give you an estimate once I've been able to get a preliminary check up."
The woman instructs the Parsect to use Spore where the Mightyena appears. It all goes off fine until it doesn't. The spore lands without a problem, but the Pokémon stays standing. It yips, and lunges toward where the attack came from. "Sleep Talk!" the Nurse murmured in surprise. Sleep Talk turned a lunge with teeth on the unsuspecting bug. It tore no small chunk out of the giant mushroom, almost instantly bringing the plant down. Fortunately, the Parasect was not the only Pokémon out at the moment. "Di!" the Audino cried as it used Double Slap to send the Dark type from sleep to unconsciousness.
The nurse moved decisively even as some of the trainers ran out of the common room to see what the commotion was about. She shooed them off, called for one last stretcher and sent both the Mightyena and the Parasect into the intensive care room without so much as a glance at either Lily or Gumnasia.

Lily looks to Nisa. "...I think I'll wait here until Randy is healed up."

Gumnisa just stood there in shock, it had all happened so fast.
"...what...the fuck..."

A slow, sly grin spread across Taylor's face. "Well. I'm certainly not gonna protest if we actually got a certifiable mystery on our hands. I'll take that over scavenger hunts and lost pets any day." Saving the Agency aside, Taylor was pretty sure he'd be satisfied if they could go out with a bang instead of a whimper. "Wish you'd told me sooner though! I asked some friends to look into those kids, didn't catch any leads. But I coulda been looking into our dockside cash cache instead of wasting time playing around here!" he sighed with a rueful smile. "We gonna wait till everyone's home before we discuss the next step on that front, then? Think I better crash here tonight." Not like Dad would miss him.

Fifteen minutes later, a nurse comes out carrying Wičhúŋt’e, now fully awake and rested in her arms.
She nods to Gumnasia as she returns the mon, and then looks over to Lily. "This Mightyena you caught... Might I ask the circumstances you obtained it?" Her gaze is appraising but not quite judgmental yet.

"Wičhú!"
Gumnisa is overjoyed to be reunited with her Pokemon again as she hugs him in her arms. Her happy reunion is somewhat sombered by the nurse's serious question. She looks to Lily, ready to offer aid in telling the story if necessary.

Lily nods at Nisa. "Well, it all started when a young lady came to our detective agency to request our aid in dealing with a Mightyena that had attacked her and her Cyndaquil."

Nisa nods. "She was worried it might attack other trainers, so she wanted it either captured or turned in to the authorities."
