"Yeah, I'm fine, just a sprained ankle, that's all," said Lumine as she stared at the woman saying something about calling Officer Jenny, and the other one, apparently the owner, who just asked if she was alright. "Hold on one second."
She then reached into her bag, and pulled out a Nest Ball, and tossing it into the air, called out a Bisharp, the Pokemon immediately seeing her hurt, and then turned on the two. "No, Buredo, no," Lumine said, catching his attention, Buredo the Bisharp immediately turning to look at her, Lumine herself smiling. "They did not do this to me, I was just clumsy. I seem to have a sprained ankle, that's it. I promise, Buredo."
The Bisharp then looked at Ivan the Unfezant, who nodded in agreement, and then picked her up like a princess, Lumine looking at the two, and said nervously, "Um...do you have a first-aid kit? I kinda forgot mine, and I hardly think that you can use potions for this. But don't worry. I'll tell you everything that you need to know. But, first things first."
She held out her hand to Alice. "If there's one thing that Ignus taught me, is to always introduce yourself to people you don't know. I'm Lumine. Lumine Divina. Nice to meet you, ma'am. Sorry for crashing onto your property."

Tamsin made a noise best described as "Hmph." Alice clearly didn't pick up on the clever ruse. Tamsin liked to mess with people, but apparently Alice cared more with actually helping the person in need. Lame. She took a step back, folding her arms across her chest.
But suddenly the woman released a Bisharp, which faced Tamsin aggressively. Tamsin slid one hand into her satchel, gripping a Pokeball, and raised the other defensively. "Woah, what the hell! Why are you getting Pokemon out now?"

She faced the newly revealed Lumine and nodded her head in acknowledgement whilst gripping her hand, she too, was a little wary around the Bisharp, even Hex, her Absol tensed up beside her and took a more aggressive stance.
Ignoring Tamsin's indignant outburst, Alice replied stiffly "Well I'm Alice Webb, don't worry about the property damage, no harm was done." It seemed she was meeting a lot of new people today, she wasn't quite used to it.
"And yes, I have a first aid kit, if you follow me I'm sure we can patch you up" Alice managed a smile at the relieved looking woman as she turned and started walking back to the ranch entrance.
Tamsin seemed a bit miffed about something but Alice didn't want to bring it up there. Ah well, nothing a good hot drink won't fix.

"Thank you, Ms. Webb. Buredo, please follow Ms. Webb. And don't do anything careless, okay?" The Bisharp nodded, and carried his Trainer inside, Ivan the Unfezant eyeing Tamsin carefully, and then took off to follow the Bisharp carrying Lumine into the ranch.

Again with the "Hmph." After being completely ignored Tamsin was left standing alone outside the Ranch. All the Pokemon were staring at her, disturbed by the commotion. "What?" She blurted at them in a harsh tone and they all returned to what ever it was they were doing. Weren't Roaming Leaders supposed to be shown a level of respect. Maybe they hadn't recognised her. Whatever, it didn't really matter.
Tamsin took one last look at the Ranch before turning towards the jungle. She didn't dislike the pair. They just weren't... fun. At least now she could get back to her exploring.

Alice lead the way into her cosy home, sure it wasn't the cleanest of homes, there was a lot of clutter and mess, but breeding Pokemon isn't the easiest job! Besides, it's better in here than it was out there, and so Alice loved it. Now she was inviting a stranger into her bubble, and she wasn't entirely comfortable about it.
Alice cleared her throat and faced the stranger, still being carried by that dangerous looking Bisharp. "While I get the medical kit, please be careful, there are many pokemon that run through here, so erm." Alice turned towards the kitchen, frowning slightly "Watch your step." She muttered whilst walking to the kettle and flicking it on.
She really needed some tea.

Lumine nods, still being carried by Buredo, the Bisharp was trying not to look intimidating. "Alright Buredo, you heard Miss Webb. Just...set me down carefully, okay? The Bisharp nodded, and careflly tiptoed around, Ivan the Unfezant staying outside until Lumine looked to the bird Pokemon, taking out his Pokeball. "Almost forgot about you, Ivan. Return." And in a flash of red light, the Unfezant was returned to his Pokeball, and Buredo set his Trainer down carefully on a nearby couch, then bowed and stood next to his Trainer, Lumine wincing as her ankle throbbed a little with pain.
Lumine then looked around. The house wasn't technically clean, but she could tell that Alice had a very hard job. She also noticed some of the Pokemon running around, and giggled a little, sighing as she looked around, waiting for Alice to return with the medical kit.

Alice massaged her temple whilst waiting for the kettle to boil. After she had brewed two cups of her finest Ganlon leaf tea she grabbed bandages and the inflammatory ointment she had created out of herbs and berries. It was designed to inhibit histamine receptors, reducing the swelling.
Oh yeah, she was smart, she often wonders if she had gone to school, whether she would have a successful career right now. Snorting lightly, she returns to her new guest. Putting the tea down first she held the ointment and bandages in her hands. "So" She starts. "Can you do it yourself, or would you like me to bandage your leg?"

Lumine smiled as Alice came back into the room with tea and bandages. Blushing a little out of embarrassment from Alice's question, she looked sheepishly at Alice. "Can...can you bandage it for me?" UPon hearing Lumine say that, Buredo took a step forward, but Lumine stopped the Bisharp with her hand, shaking her head. "It's alright Buredo, I trust her." Her smile caused the Bisharp to step back, calming down a little. She then smiled at Alice. "So Alice, you live here? It's a very nice place..."

Alice raised a sharp eyebrow at the Bisharp that, for a moment, looked like it was threatening her. Focusing on the girl now sitting on her sofa, she dropped to her knees in front of her, unscrewing the jar in her hand and unleashing the potent smell. It may be a bloody good remedy, but its smell is quite nasty.
"You need to take your shoes off first" Alice berated the girl before answering her question, "And yes, I live here, it's small but it suits its function" The blonde was inwardly flattered, she doesn't get many visitors, so a compliment on her home is a ego boost, but it was also unnerving.

Lumine nodded as she took her shoes and socks off, leaving her feet bare, but still smiling, despite the terrible smell coming from the remedy Alice had in her hand . "I see...and if I may ask, what is it that you do, Ms. Webb?" Buredo stood there silently as Lumine talked with Alice, the Bisharp knowing that Lumine was just being friendly, and that it was acting out of turn. Therefore, it stood there silently, watching the other Pokemon outside from a window nearby.

"Oh this and that." Alice replied vaguely as she started applying the cream to the others feet. She was not fond of feet.
"What I am more interested in, is how on Earth you managed to stumble, literally, upon my abode?" Alice asked sharply, staring at the other girl.
"No offence or anything, but it is awfully uncommon for someone to be wondering around here. And to be on your own as well, is rather, well," Alice paused her ministrations to look coldy at the girl, mistrust showing in her body langage. "Suspicious." She finished, looking at the girl, intending on getting an answer.

Lumine could tell almost immediately that Alice was very mistrusting of her right now. After all, she was the one who accidentally stumbled into her property, and the Pokemon breeder applying the cream to her sprained ankle needed answers. Which she promised she would give.
Nodding politely, she replied, "Well, I may not look it, but I'm actually a Pokemon Ranger. I was looking for someone, my Unfezant Ivan helping me. The next thing I knew I found myself wandering around here, and then I..." She then paused, a little color flushing to her cheeks out of embarrassment. "...I wasn't looking where I was going, and I tripped on a nearby root, which may have resulted in my sprained ankle. Next thing I knew, I rolled down a hill, and my body finally stopped rolling. By that time, I was still a little dizzy, and well...you know the rest."
She then sighed, and looked up at the ceiling of the small house. She then looked back at Alice, and smiled. "In all honesty, Ms. Webb, I do not wish you any hostilities at all. The reason I'm here on my own is well, I am a Champion and all...and I have my Pokemon with me." She then looked over smiling at Buredo, the Bisharp still staring out the window. Upon feeling his Trainer's gaze on him, he then turned around to look at his Trainer. "Buredo, do you wish to say something to Ms. Webb?" The Bisharp then bowed, saying some dialect in an apologetic tone, and then went back to staring out the window. Lumine giggled a little, turning back to Alice. "That's his way of saying 'I'm sorry.'"

Alice had had enough of this juggling act, this conversation was going nowhere, and something about the story just seemed, well, off. Almost as if she was leaving something out of the story. Alice finished bandaging the others foot and stood up, rubbed her hands on her skirt to get rid of the remaining ointment and crossing her arms in a defensive stance. "To be frank with you, your presence unnerves me." Alice started pacing as she explained to the girl. "I mean, a ranger who can't look where she's going? How can you help anyone if you can't help yourself?" Alice paused and frowned. "I'm not trying to be rude, you understand, but I am dubious about your reasons for being here. There is talk of poachers about, and these are are untrustworthy times, especially in the Wilderness."
Alice stroked her Absol on the head, smoothing down her hair. Hex shared a look with Alice, then the Breeder looked Lumine in the eye. "And for all I know, your Bisharp may not have been apologising at all, it might of been something rather insulting about my mother." Alice attempted to lighten the mood with a joke. She wasn't accustomed to jokes.
