Now that she had her first Pokemon - or egg - Sunset needed to get some money in. Choosing a starter egg was challenging, ofcourse. But she was going to work for her pennies. She saw an ad for mail delivery. That was something she could do! She would help people out, and spend time with her egg. To flies in one hit, right?
Sunset made her way to the posthouse. A middle-aged man was inside, sorting all kinds of enveloppes and packages. The man's head was red from the work he was doing. Sunset stood in the dooropening, a bit awkward. She coughed 'Uhm, sorry to bother you, but I saw that you needed help with the delivery?' She asked. The man looked up at her, and a smile appeared on his face. 'Yes!' He called out 'yes young lady, we do. Let me get you a bag and the mail.' The man walked to the back of the building and came back with a bag. He shoved some of the enveloppes in the back and handed it over. 'If you could take care of this back. If you are done, report back here and you'll recieve your rewards. Good luck!' And the man went back to work. Sunset smiled a little, placed the bag over her shoulder and started towards the first adress. ipdLMcaGMail Delivery Recurring; Anyone | 1-2 people 4 posts per character minimum With so many people moving to Arciel lately, and so many hopeful young trainers constantly moving around, keeping up with the mail has become a nightmare!

A random event has occurred! What will you do? Sunset GreenleafYou turn one corner, then another, make your way down the road, down another corner... oh dear. Where was it again? You seem to have gotten lost. Everything looks completely unfamiliar to you, and there's no sign of any street markers anywhere. Maybe you should ask for directions?

Sunset looked at the adresse of her first enveloppe. She believed it must be here... maybe around that corner... No, after that one? Sunset stopped walking and looked around while biting her lip. She was in the completely wrong street. Sunset closed her eyes for a second and sighed. Great. She turned around and walked upto a yellow haired woman. 'Uhm- excuse me, can I ask you something?' The woman looked up to her and smiled. 'Ofcourse dear, what's wrong?' 'I am looking for this adresse, but it seemed I got myself lost.' Sunset showed the enveloppe to the woman. The woman nodded and turned halfway around, pointin in the right direction 'If you follow that road back, and take the second right, then you are in the right street. Just walk upto the back to the housenumber.' Sunset smiled and thanked the woman. Then she started towarts the road in a small run. The faster she delivered the better. Sunset wanted to maintain a good reputation with the cities she visited.
As she arrived on the road she indeed saw the house on her adresse. She sighed in relief as she pushed the letter into the mailbox. She turned around with a big smile and picket the next letter out of the bag. Next one! ChnsXDKo

Nothing Happened! All rolls were passed! Sunset GreenleafThankfully the elderly woman gave directions to the correct house. Phew! The next letter has a barely legible address... is that another language? No? Just really bad cursive apparently... oh dear...

Happy that she succesfully delivered her first piece of mail, Sunset took out the next letter out of the bag. When she looked at the writing she stopped walking. 'What is...' At the first sight, it seemed to be another language. What? How was she supposed to find this? Sunset kept looking. Oh, wait... No, it was English. It was just... Very badly written. Perhaps the writer had tried to improve his writing? And failed. Terribly. Sunset slowly started walking again as she tried to solve the puzzle on the letter. Slowly she started to recognise what it was supposed to say. Hopefully she was right. She headed to the street. When she arrived she looked at the housenumber. It was just at the end. Before the house she stopped. Maybe she could ring the bell, and ask if this was indeed the right adresse... Sunset was a little shy, but she knew that she had to be sure. Sunset took a deep breath and rang the doorbell. A few seconds later a man opened the door. "Can I help you?" He asked friendly. "Yes, I just wanted to be sure if this is the right adresse for this letter?" Sunset handed the letter over. The man looked at the letter. After a time he nods. "yes, this is for me. Thank you so much." Sunset smiled and nodded as she turned and resumed her walk to the last adresse. rg5USGE7

Oh no he didn't. Just as she handed the letter over, a Growlight snapt it out of their hands and ran off. Sunset reacted immediatly. She trew out Abra's Pokeball. 'Abra, Teleport in front of him!' Abra appeared out of her Pokeball, just to vanish a second later. She reappeared right in front of the Growlight, what made it fall on to her. Sunset ran to the two Pokemon and picked up the letter. 'Thank you, Abra.' The man joined them. 'I'm sorry about that. He's just so playfull.' Sunset smiled. 'That's okay! Here, your letter back.' She handed the letter over to the man. He nodded and smiled, and he and his Growlight went back home. 'Good work Abra. Just one adresse to go!' Sunset took a look at the last letter and headed towards that direction. When they would have finished this, it was time for them to make their way on the routes to the gym. Train a bit, and challenge! AYgegmQd

A random event has occurred! What will you do? Sunset Greenleaf Dear Arceus. That is a very large Hoothoot nestled in the mailbox. Part of you is amazed he even fits in there. Another part of you is wondering what this means for your letter delivering escapades. The Hoothoot simply blinks, tilting its head at you curiously.

As Sunset and Abra made their way to the last house, Sunset dozed off in thoughts more and more. When she'd finish this job, she'd finish the routes toward Birch City. It would take some time, but it was just the start of discovering Arciel. And Sunset couldn't wait for it. After a a short few minutes they arrived at the last house. Sunset opened the mailbox, screamed and slammed it back. There was a Hoothoot inside the mailbox! Sunset crossed her arms and bit her lip, staring at the letter in her back. How was she supposed to do this? She looked over to the house. Maybe she could just ring the doorbell again. Sunset walked up to the door and rang. She waited for two minutes, but there was probably no one home. Sunset sighed and went back to the mailbox. Slowly she opened it again. The Hoothoot staring at her. The bird Pokémon hadn't moved. It just looked at her. 'So... Hey there..." Sunset stumbled. "Do you mind to just...?" She carefully moved her arm inside the mailbox and tried to pull the Hoothoot away. It firmly pickt it's beak in her arm. That wasn't going to work... "Okay, fine! Could you take care of this then? Be sure the owner of this house gets it!" Sunset was 99% sure that the Hoothoot was with the person who lived here. Why else would it be in the mailbox? Sunset sighed, placed the letter in the mailbox. Should she close it? Leave it open? Well, it was closed when she found it. So Sunset closed it again. And she headed back to the post office. End of topic?
