[[DNA-T]] A Place To Sleep For A Fusion

    Today, Lukas and the team decided to go to the dump to find some extra things needed for crafting. Gummy was out of his ball and chilling on Lukas’s shoulder as always. The two dug through massive trash heaps, finding all sorts of goodies to take home and craft some nice armor with. Though not everything they saw was treasure, they enjoyed researching it nonetheless, learning about what it once was.

    They filled their wagon full with all sorts of things that caught their eyes, toys from eons ago, books, and cards neatly stacked inside. When they left it unnoticed for long, trouble struck. A hungry fusion stumbled upon their finds, greedily devouring the wagon’s contents, not wasting a second. When it finished its meal, it used the wagon as a bed to nap. 

    Only minutes after the two returned, they stared dumbfounded at the fusion. Lukas quickly grabbed his Dexter to figure out just what ate their treasures. An Alolan Grimer / Trubbish fusion. Though he was angry, he couldn’t stay mad at this little guy. It was only doing what Alolan Grimer does best, cleaning up trash, and well, that’s what it was doing. So he decided instead to try to get his wagon back.

    He first waited for it to wake up, then tried to lure it out with trash. Which all worked, until he went to get the wagon. The fusion then became angry, and a battle quickly commenced. Once a Sludge Bomb erupted from the fusion’s mouth, Gummy launched into action. Gummy used Acid Armor and jumped in front of his trainer to protect them from the hit. Lukas quickly gave Gummy commands to try and calm the angered fusion. When all failed, he told Gummy to use Tri Attack, the only move he could use against the poison type. It wasn’t as effective as hoped, but it still did damage. Enraged, the fusion tried to bite Gummy; however, the acid armor took most of the hit. Lukas told Gummy again to use Tri Attack; this time, the fusion looked a little weaker. Lukas started feeling somewhat bad for it, it only wanted a nice place to sleep.

    Lukas decided to tell Gummy to hold off on his next attack. He walked into the battlefield and knelt in front of the fusion. “If you want it, you can have it. I understand now that you only want a nicer place to sleep.” The Fusion looked at him, confused. Lukas only nudged it towards the wagon, “Keep it, seriously!” Lukas then used a potion to heal up the fusion from the fight. He even helped the fusion make the wagon its own. Filling it with soft things and blankets, it looked like a nice place to sleep. As the sun began to set, the two decided to stay for the night since it looked clear out. They pitched a makeshift tent out of garbage bags and used some cooking supplies on hand to make camp. The three ate a good meal, Gummy even played with the fusion. Lukas only watched; he was happy this ended in such a good way. Now they have a friend to return to when they go searching for trash. 

    As night snuck up on them and stars filled the sky, Lukas and Gummy sheltered in their tent. They dragged the wagon in so the fusion could feel like it was a part of the sleeping gang. Lukas told the other two stories, and even doodled with them as they all drifted off to sleep

    In the morning, the three made breakfast, cleaned up their campsite, had some more fun, and as afternoon rolled around, Lukas and Gummy decided it was time to leave. While saying goodbye to the fusion. It only followed them with the wagon in tow. It wanted Lukas to capture it. Without any spare Pokeballs on hand, he decided to use a Nera Jar to capture the Alolan Grimer’s DNA. “So part of you will always be with me.” The now Trubbish accepted this. Lukas hugs the Trubbish, wishes it well, and heads off. It waves as they leave. It now has some new friends and a new place to sleep.
