Quoted By:
You can't help crawling backward toward the stack of boxes to hide from the Skowl but as soon as you back up, you bump into another box and when it shakes a different box falls off of it! Lottatax has to scurry out of the way as you jump at the box to try to catch it but it lands on the floor!
When you look up, Skowl is standing in front of you glaring at you!
<span class="mu-s"><span class="mu-g">
Skowl is challenging Cutémon!
Skowl attacks before Cutémon was ready!
Skowl attacks with Para Eyes!
</span></span>
As soon as Skowl glares at you, your legs go numb and you fall down on the floor!
[SFX: clinking, rolling noise]
What? <span class="mu-r">The Cutécaptor</span> rolled out of your jacket pocket when you fell down? You must have left your pocket open when you took your sack of coins out to call Professor Bean! You watch the cutécaptor rolling across the floor but you can't do anything because the rest of your body is also numb!
Skowl looks at the cutécaptor and says "Skowooo?"
"Lottatax!" Suddenly Lottatax jumps at Skowl while it's looking at the cutécaptor!
Skowl spins its head the other way and glares at Lottatax and then Lottatax falls down on the floor!
Skowl looks at Lottatax and then hops across the floor after the cutécaptor! It looks like Skowl is going to pick it up! You try to grab the cutécaptor but you can hardly move at all! Skowl stands in front of the cutécaptor and looks at you and then picks up the cutécaptor with its stubby wings!
You can hardly move your head! When you look the other way you see the human man standing next to the boxes!
The human man can't believe it! "A stowaway!" He looks at Lottatax lying next to you and says "And... a Lottatax? Well, that Para Eyes should keep you both from causing any trouble until we get to Copper Citadel."
Skowl hops across the floor toward the human man and says "Skowooo!"
When the human man looks down at Skowl he says "What's this?" and picks up the cutécaptor! "Looks expensive. Where did a kid like you get something like this?" The human man is looking at you!
Even though you can hardly move, you can't help <span class="mu-s"><span class="mu-r">your cheeks</span></span> turning red! You try to stand up and give the human man a determined look but you can hardly raise yourself up with your arms!
"It's mine!"
"Well, it'll have to do for payment. You're not riding for free, you know!"
What? The human man is saying he's going to keep the cutécaptor as payment?
