Chapter 85: Chapter 85 - Buying some Condensed Milk and a Shady, Mysterious Person
Third person POV
At 6:29 p.m., Rico and his group went back to Campillo's vacation house to rest up and eat dinner. There all of them are now having a nice, early dinner. Campillo, Edward, and Jonathan cooked for dinner. The food for dinner consisted of cheese and sweet potato stew with chives, steamed rice, and fruit salad. Rico and Juan are resting up and playing with their Pokémon before Rico takes a shower first, then Juan second. And then, while making the fruit salad, Campillo realized that he was out of condensed milk, which was used to make the sweet fruity dish. So, while Rico, Juan, and their Pokémon teams walked into the kitchen, Campillo looked at them. "Hey, can you run to a convenience store to buy some condensed milk, please? We need that for the fruit salad."
"Oh, sure, I'll do it!" Rico confidently and strongly answered back.
Riolu and Absol then responded by volunteering.
So, Rico grabbed his shoulder bag and left the house with his Riolu and Absol, walking to the nearest convenience store. There the three of them picked up 2 metal cans of condensed milk and 2 bars of dark chocolate, Rico's favorite sweet treat, and went to the cashier to pay for them. Once that was done, Rico and his two Pokémon left the store and walked back to the house. Along the way, they went through the neighborhood's plaza to shorten their travel time. It was nighttime, with the winds from the east and northeast blowing across the area. Most of the homes had their lights on at this hour. And as Rico and his two Pokémon crossed the dark plaza, the same mysterious and masked man that appeared in a hotel resort in Galen City suddenly appeared at the spot, looking at them. "Hello there…" the man said to them with a dark tone of his voice.
Upon seeing that person, Rico and his two Pokémon were taken aback with fear.
"That guy again?!" Rico's mind asked.
"You'll go to our world in the far future," the man said to him with a foreshadowing prediction.
Couldn't stand his scary and intimidating presence any longer, Rico and his two Pokémon ran past him and hid behind one of the pillars in the plaza's concrete and brick gazebo, breathing heavily.
After sighing in relief, the three of them looked at the man, but the man was nowhere to be seen, much to their chagrin.
"Who in the world is that guy?" Rico's mind asked again.
Rico and his two Pokémon then eventually resumed their way back to Campillo's vacation house, knowing that Campillo and the others are waiting for them.
