(Cont. from https://scratch.mit.edu/projects/269124387/ ) The trio shrieked, and the leader rushed at the group in rage. Nelvana swiftly halted the attack by simply sticking out her club, making the mankey run right into it, keeping them away from everyone. The other mankeys approached, but didn’t attack, seeming to have learned from before. Tsuki walked up beside Nelvana in support, but didn’t do much else. Nelvana snickered, “I wasn’t actually expecting you to say no, I kinda thought you were leading up to something with that, probably worked better this way though,” she said, as casually as one could while keeping an angry pokemon at bay with a bone. “Yeah… I actually was going to say something else, but then I realized that would be bribery, and that’s illegal here. I wouldn’t want to break a law on a rescue team. This works, I guess. The reaction was pretty funny,” Alex replied, glancing back at the leader, still struggling uselessly against the blockage. “Anyway, back to business.” “Shouldn’t we do something about these three?” Tsuki questioned, turning her head back to look at the others properly. “Eh, they’ll be fine for now, I guess,” Alex shrugged, “we’ll have to figure out something to curb their temper issues later. Right now, we should figure out what to do with the base. We’ve put it off for too long.” “Uh… okay?” Keahi replied hesitantly, “so, I actually just got an idea! You know how we were talking about how we needed more space anyway? I think, since this house got kinda ruined anyway, we should try rebuilding it!” “That’s… that’s actually a good idea, one problem though. Do any of us even know how to build a house? Or is there someone we can hire for that?” Alex replied, crossing his arms across his chest. “I… I actually don’t think there is anyone we could hire…” Keahi mumbled, “and I don’t have any building experience…” zie admitted. “Did you say building?” one of the mankeys asked, “we can build! We build houses all the time! All the mankeys in our area do! You can pay us with that chestnut…” Alex’s eyes widened, “oh really? You’d be willing to work for us for just one chestnut?” The leader lifted up their head, stepping back from the club, “yes! Yes, we would!” “So, let me get this straight. All three of you, will work to help us rebuild our base, just for this chestnut in payment?” Alex questioned, the sly grin returning. All the mankeys nodded eagerly, and Alex glanced back at the other teammates. Nelvana nodded, and so did Keahi after a moment’s hesitance. Tsuki simply shrugged, seemingly indifferent to the situation, but she carried a curious smile as to how this would go. Wynaut and Wobbuffet both looked nervous, but Wynaut gave a small nod. “Alright then, that’s the deal, here you go,” Alex hummed, tossing the chestnut over to the mankeys. “Now, don’t try backing out of work now, we made a deal. You agreed that that is fair payment for your help.” “We won’t! You can count on us!” The mankeys cheered, all joyfully looking over the single chestnut. “We… we can still help too!” Wynaut exclaimed, “Wobbuffet and I can help! We can… hand you supplies! And stuff! Yeah!” “Alright! Let’s get planning for this then!” Keahi chirped.

Like,,, you don't deserve this, go away. It's kinda mean, but also funny that they keep attacking you because you won't give them a nut, and they keep losing because they suck but they keep trying.
