The next morning has arrived and things are looking pleasant as ever. I've noticed a constant shift in the egg. It grows brighter at times while sometimes the glow is just dull. Seeing the egg glow all of a sudden, I was shocked and I could not resist the urge but to research more about this phenomenon. Also, I received an email from Virgo who appears to be reporting about their latest findings about Mew and Mewtwo.
It turns out, they were able to capture the ancient Mew but it was able to escape the laboratory. She told me to keep a close eye on any Pokemon that may seem suspicious since they've detected Mew in this region. The ancestors of all Pokemon? (excluding the Arceus) It would be great to meet it personally one day!
Back to the egg, it says on the internet whenever an egg glows it means it is about to hatch. Still, that does not entirely mean it would be hatching any second now. Perhaps a few more days or weeks will be needed in order for the little embryo to develop further.
Since I still do not have any assigned mission, I will be staying here in headquarters, watching and taking care of the egg all day. That is when I suddenly remember the events which took place yesterday. I remember I need to tell the leaders about this so I left my room for a moment. This time, I assigned Mawile and Absol to be the baby-sitters of the egg while the rest of my Pokemon comes with me to the warehouse.
They're compassionate, and I do believe Absol does not hurt anyone as long as she knows it is a friend of mine. As for Mawile, her rambunctious and jolly nature will surely give the egg some entertainment.
"Alright! I trust the two of you will be great babysitters like Liligant. I will be back before you know it!" happily, I greet them before leaving. The moment I left the room is when their responsibility as babysitters start.
The moment I shut the door, Absol quickly turns her head to the egg, watching it like a griffin. Meanwhile, Mawile was quite curious about her peculiar actions.
Mawile complains.
The table shakes violently and all of a sudden the egg falls. Absol tries to reach for it, but she was an inch late. Luckily, Mawile was able to grab it with her jaws. Although that problem was solved right away, little do the two of them know a new one is about to arise.
Mawile compliments herself. Due to this, she accidentally releases the incubator and lets it fall to the ground. Two seconds afterward, the blare of shattering glass emitted, making both of them shake with guilt.
As luck would have it, the egg survived but as for the incubator? It was completely destroyed.
The two then rush to the headquarters which has caught the attention of many grunts. On their mind, they wondered why would two Pokemon suddenly roam the place for some reason instead of being inside their Pokeball.
They make a mad dash through the halls of the warehouse, entering the door with the label, [Science Sector 5] in which all the spare incubators are located there. They knew about this since every incubator produced here has a sector label located on the very back. Absol must've comprehended all the details before panicking gravely and dashing off to find a copy.
Luckily, no one is in sight except for themselves. As a Pokemon with four limbs, she leaves the task of carrying the incubator to Mawile. They were able to find a spare one sitting randomly atop one of the tables. They run back immediately to the room before I arrive.
"Sure Admin Hector, I will be seeing you tomorrow."
Due to this, they've wasted all their stamina but at least it was a healthy exercise since both of them had been eating a ton lately. Another stroke of luck, they were able to reach the room before I did. However, only a few seconds remain as the blaring sounds of my footsteps tickle their ears.
"That was a tiring conversation. Oh, Mawile, Absol? Why are the two of you sweaty? Sigh, I just groomed your furs this morning." I open the doors, greeted by two smiles with the egg perfectly placed inside an incubator, looking normal with no difference since the time I left.
"Oh well, I guess the two of you had fun with the egg?" I tease sarcastically, letting off a chuckle as I observed my precious diamond.
"This seems odd. The incubator feels new." I mutter. Behind me are Mawile and Absol, pleading that I wouldn't find anything strange about it even if I've found one already.
"Hmm, maybe it's because the two of you worked hard to take care of the egg? I know! As a reward, I will let the two of you sleep me with tonight, how's that sound?"
As the moon reaches its pinnacle, I fulfilled my promise to my two hard-working Pokemon and let them sleep beside me. I tried to make myself fall under a deep slumber by searching for some videos to watch on the internet once more like what I do every night.
And finally, drowsiness struck. I blink my eyes, and suddenly because of my drowsiness, I dropped my phone. I went off of my bed for a while and that is when I noticed something peculiar under it.
"What the?" I mumble, enabling the flash on my phone. No matter how subtle my words are, it was able to awaken both Absol and Mawile.
"Why are their shards of glass on the floor?!" in the middle of the night, I enrage at Mawile and Absol, demanding an answer. As a response, all they did was smile and returned themselves to their very own Pokeballs.
