It was a lazy afternoon at the mall, it was the Spring time so a lot of Pokemon were outside and enjoying the sun while it made some of the Pokemon that Worked inside of the mall bored and miserable. At the Shroomish Shack Nalani and two other Pokemon who worked there were just sitting around and just waiting for a customer to come by, oh sure there was a few customers once in a while, but the thing was that they had to stay in one place for a couple of hours while everyone else was enjoying the weather. "Come ON! there has to something that can make this less boring, ANYTHING! Nalani said in her mind as she tapped her long claws on the counter as she had her other hand holding up her head as she waited for the rest of her future to be wasted away.

She hated to admit it, but Nina was never good with locating herself in large places such as this. She was, dare she admit, slightly lost.
Only fifteen minutes prior, the black and white Arcanine stepped through the doors of the mall, a sparkle of pleasure shining in her eyes. She wandered around a bit, but somehow spaced out while she was walking and ended up losing herself in a mob of many different Pokemon. Their loud talking filled her ears a bit too much for her liking, so she calmly fled from the center of the fray.
But, here she was walking past the Shroomish Shack with the most lost expression in her eyes. Nina felt helpless. 'Oh well, better get a drink before you pass out.' She though and began to hate her stupidity, but she entered the shack cautiously anyway.

Nalani looked up when she saw someone comming up towards the counter, and it wasn't an ordinary-looking one, instead of a usual Orange and Red Arcanine her pelt was Black and White in colour. Hmm, nice colours she's got She said to herself before she felt a pat on the shoulder and someone saying, "You get this one." She looked up as she saw one of the other Pokemon that was helping out at the Shroomish Shack help someone else.
Nalani stood up straight and cleared out her throat as she awaited for the Arcanine to come forward. "Hello, welcome to the Shroomish Shack. How may I help you today? She said in a happy-tone as she had a smile on her face yet she was once in a while told that her smile was a little intimadating for her two fangs that hung out on the left-side of her face.

The Arcanine wanted to smile back as she saw the Weavile's face light up while she trotted up to the counter. But, memories of her missing canine tooth came rushing back and she fought down the urge, feeling a bit embarrassed.
"Hello. A water will do well for today." She replied, turning the left side of her jaw out of the other Pokemon's view and angling it down. Nina had a beautiful voice, a soft, clear, feminine one.
She silently hoped that the Weavile wouldn't notice her unsightly missing tooth. Still, as stubborn as ever, Nina wouldn't ask for directions.

Nalanit couldn't help but raise a brow but for two reasons, one of them was that the Arcanine was only asking for a bottle of water, and the other reason was she just kept on showing the right-side of her face. Alright, whatever you like. She said with a shrug as she brought one of her feet near a basket filled with iced and chilled water and picked up one of the bottles with her toes, then she through it in the air and kicked it upwards as it bounce of her shoulder as she shrugged it off and then caught it with her three sharp claws. "Well, here ya go, one bottle of water like you asked, just pay $1.5o for it please. She said with a smile still upon her face.

She nodded at the simple request, not daring to talk as she saw the Weavile raise a brow. Maybe she suspected something about her missing tooth.
Nina reached for a small pouch she often carried around that contained her well saved money. It was strapped onto her right foreleg and was very easy to access. She reached in and grabbed a dollar bill and quarter, carefully placing it on the counter.
Becoming self-consious of her lost tooth once more, Nina attempted to shy away, but kept herself where she was. The Arcanine was told by her grandmother that she was a beautiful Pokemon, but she became ugly once she lost her tooth to the Primeape. That hurt her more than any taunting classmate.

Nalani nodded as she took the money and put it in the casheir and then closing it to look back at the oddly-coloured Arcanine again with a smile still on her face. "Alright then have a nice d-" As she was talking something fell right out of her mouth and onto the counter, and it wasn't chewing gum, but a molar tooth. Quickly she covered her mouth as her eyes were shot wide open after she saw what had happened right there, she quickly took the tooth and put it into one of her pockets in her baggy camo-pants and went to one of the cooling machines as her feathered fan on her head drooped downwards feeling like a complete idiot to let a customer just see that right out of the blue.

Nina could feel her pain of embarrassment. She took the water bottle in her jaws and padded over a ways to sit on a chair. She sighed, debating in her head if she should reveal to the Weavile her own loss of tooth just to make her feel that much better.
"Be happy it wasn't your bottom left canine." She breathed, a small sigh curving her maw downward. Nina's eyes became cloudy as thoughts of that bloody fight rushed back, but just took a small sip of her water to calm it.
'Poor Weavile, it must be even more embarassing for her to lose her tooth like that.' She thought as she rested, looking over with a concered gaze.

Nalani was just in a small depression moment at the time feeling really bad about what she had just done right there in front of a customer, but again another one of the workers that worked at the Shack told her that he would took her shift for her and gave her a smoothie. She smiled as she accepted the offer and began walking towards one of the empty tables but saw the Arcanine again. I really do need to apologies to her for that inciden back there... She said to herself as she walked up beside the oddly-coloured Pokemon. "Hey, look... Im sorry about that incident back there, I lost my tooth in a gang fight and my replacement tends to fall out from time to time." She explained to the Arcanine with a small and this time a nervous smile on her as she was rubbing the back of her neck getting a little nervous on how she would react to her.

The Arcanine shrugged, letting a small timid smile split her maw. At that point the unsightly spot must have been as plain as day. Her eyes grew soft as she reminisced and surpressed a sigh.
"I feel your pain... a bit too well." She breathed, but loud enough for the other female to hear. "You don't need to aplogize, I lost mine much the same way." It was rare the oddly colored Pokemon would talk to others, but seeing as these two had something in common it made it a little easier.
Taking another sip of her water, Nina looked away, no longer smiling as she once was.

Nalani again raised a brow when she saw the hole which had no tooth in it. then why were you afraid to show me that you lost your tooth? She asked as she leaned on the table a little bit more as she looked at her yellow drink and moved the straw around with one of her claws. "I mean you look good, even without it." She said before sipping her drink a little bit but then looked back at the Arcanine again. "By the wya, names Nalani." She told the Arcanine in a mild tone.

The Arcanine smiled a bit at that, feeling comfortable with the Weavile. "Name's Nina." She replied with a smile, once again revealing her lost tooth.
Another sigh tried to creep its way into Nina, but she surpressed it and carried on. "When I was like fourteen, I got into a huge fight with a Primeape. I beat him, and pretty badly, but lost my tooth during it," she explained, drawing in a breath before continuing. "My own grandmother told me right to my face that I was a beautiful Arcanine gone ugly without my canine tooth." Nina smiled then, shunning such a thought and took a sip of her water.
The female eased back in her chair, commenting one last time. "Plus, it reminds me of my past," she replied with a smirk.

Nalani nodded with a smile on her face as she got know the Arcanine's name, but soon that happy face turned one of shock as she heard even that Nina's own Grandmother thought she was ugly without her tooth. "Ouch, your own Grandma told you that? I wouldn't know what my parents would think of it since they died when I was like two years old." She admitted as she took a sip of her drink put put on the table again and looked up at Nina again since she was about twice her size.
"The only reason I lost my tooth was because my brother was in a gang fight and was about to get shot by a Rhypheior's pistol, I managed to kick it out of his hand but I got a punch in the mouth for it." She sighed as she pulled over a chair and sat down while one of her claws twirled the straw around. "My brother's a Gang Leader, he usually steals expensive stuff and sells them at high prices, he bought a replacement tooth for me." She confessed to Nina as her claws still fiddled around with the straw in her drink.

A small grin curved the female's maw as she and the Weavile conversed. "Yes, well, my family is a very sad one. They would always fuss over me and treat me like a Growlithe. It got on my nerves and the only way to vent my anger was to get into trouble." She shrugged, a toothy grin, with the absence of one particular tooth, splitting her white maw.
The Arcanine listened intently, fascinated with what she was telling her. "Sounds dangerous, but somewhat fun." Nina commented as her smirk began to widen. She secretly thought being in a gang would be fun, but the Mix would never dare of starting her own.

Nalani just giggled a little bit when Nina was talking about how her parents just babied her just a little too long, but when she said it would be fun to be in a gang she stopped twrilling her straw around and just looked at the Arcanine, she seemed to have a fine build to her and seemed kind of tough without her canine tooth, especially after knowing how she lost in in the first place, she seemed to be quite worthy of possibly working for her brother. "You know, Im going to be taking my brother's gang out tonight, maybe you can come with us tonight and if the gang likes ya then you can possibly join, what do ya say? She said as she laid back on her chair and awaited an answer.
