While many members of the guild enjoyed sleeping on a calm bed and letting the soft surface whisk them to sleep, there are a few that prefer to sleep in their element. Some of the water types like sleeping in warm water, some of the grass types like sleeping under leaves or in trees, and so on. The Pokémon of interest, a ground type meanwhile, tended to sleep in the ground. Burrowed into the dirt was a fairly large, fairly plump, mole-like Pokémon with dark brown fur and red markings, along with thick claws and a blade-like protrusion from her forehead. This was an Excadrill, a proficient digger and proficient devourer. She's also kind of notorious for her smell, spending her nights sleeping in the dirt and whatnot.
This was Libby, a lady that was working off some outlaw in her belly through the night. Later, though, with the daytime rising, she stirred awake. She stayed for a moment, trying to detect any movement in her gut. However, everything was silent. She sighed and gently patted her belly, a bit more pudge to her now.
"Mmm, enjoy your life sentence," she said. She then tried to back up, but her body refused to move. She strained and kept trying to squeeze backwards, but she was still stuck! She began to realize her belly fat was getting caught on the dirt walls she'd slept within. "Oh you're a fighter beyond the end, eh?" Libby brought one of her claws in front of her, and spread them, them emitting the sound of an unsheathed blade. And so, she began digging upwards.
Up above, near where she slept, there was a tree with a Gligar hanging from it from his tail, him looking down at the ground patiently. This was Simone, Libby's partner in the guild. He seemed to think she should be up soon, and he silently feared that what she ate might've messed her up during her sleep. However, soon the ground split open. He saw a familiar claw pop out, followed by another. With a grunt, Libby hoisted herself upwards, her body splitting more and more of the earth. So, she placed her feet up on the ground and stood up, her plump body now on display for the world.
"Ah, I gotta get used to bigger holes," she noted. She planted her claws around her enlarged gut and gently played with it, lifting it a little before letting go and letting gravity pull it down, jiggling as it flopped back into its original position. Upon seeing her get up, Simone got out of the tree and flew over.
"How'd that Electrike taste?" he asked before settling himself on her shoulder.
"Not the best thing I ate, but certainly not unpleasant." She patted her gut and looked up at her partner. She then stretched her body upwards, yawning while she did so, and smacked her lips together as she scratched her back. Then, she began to walk back to the meeting point of the guild. She rode the boat over, and she hated every moment of it. She wasn't built for the water, she just needed to stay on the soil. Ah well, at least she wouldn't have to deal with water for a while while over here. At least not until they deal with whatever brought upon the drought. She ruled the soil, and she'd make sure her girth ruled any small outlaw.
Soon, she was back at the meetup point, the boat's deck. She stepped up onto it, and stood near the guild member, a few Pokémon picking up her scent and scooting away from her. The Pokémon appeared to be taking their missions from Juniper Town, the town in danger. There was the guild member, a Swampert known as Roy, and next to him was the designated job delegator, a Pidove named Sweeny. Libby stood in line and waited for her turn to receive a job. She looked down at her badge, still a Normal Rank. She sighed inwardly. She felt the need to fill her belly up with bigger meals, but she'd need more points before she can graduate from the small fry.
Then again, she didn't need to wait for Sweeny to direct her. Surely there's some townsperson that had to deal with a bigger threat, right? Maybe one of them could use her help.
