========== WRITTEN TEST ==========

Two Pokemons stood in front of one of the few restaurants around Andalusst that could be considered ritzy, Café Obscurité. The name is often looked upon as ironic, due to the establishment's success and popularity. Many can't afford to dine here, but it is where the Hunters have invited them to speak with a Guild representative. They hesitated for a while. Then, slowly, the Eevee and Absol both walked in.

The moment they step foot inside, the Pokémon at the front desk approached them and showed them to a table. It's located in one of the darker corners of the already-dim establishment, and it's already attended by a sly, smiling Furret with a blue newsboy cap.
"That's the Hunter representative?" The serious-looking Eevee quietly asked his partner, clearly not impressed. And really, you can't blame him. The Furret looks like so weak that even a Caterpie can take him on.

"Seems like it", the Absol said calmly, taking this in. He walked towards the Furret, with the Eevee following behind.

"Hey, pull up a seat. Order your favorites; this one's on the Guild's checkbook," The Furret greeted them with a quick wave.

Shortly after the two of them are situated, an Empoleon waiter arrived at their table and passed a fancy-looking menu to everyone present. A number of higher-class dishes were represented on it, along with equally high-class prices.
 "The usual," the Normal-type commented with disregard, gently pushing the menu back against the Empoleon's chest. The waiter merely rolled his eyes and turned his attention to the new arrivals, waiting expectantly for their orders.

'
I'll have a Pecha Delight, please,' the Absol requested. 'A plate of Cheri Poffin will do,' the Eevee said.'Certainly, sirs,' the waiter jolted down their orders and, with one last annoyed glance at the strange fellow, who appeared unfazed, walked off. "No sense of humor," the Furret remarked with a shrug, before lazily slumping back in his seat. His gaze doesn't settle on anyone in particular, as though he's simply staring off somewhere.

"The name's Cuffin, but I'm sure you've already heard of me. No need for introductions on your part, Frey, I already know who ya are. But,"Cuffin gave a sidelong look at the Absol,"I was told that you are going solo. So who is this?" 

"My name is Narxus," The Absol said before Frey could say anything, "I'm a newcomer of the town. Frey and I happened to meet yesterday and we decided to form a team together," Narxus frown, "Will there be any problem?"

"Nah, shouldn't be much a problem. But what a nuisance..." Cuffin muttered the last sentence under his breath while writing something down on a piece of parchment in front of him. Then he laid back to his seat.

"So... I work for this kid, Sundance, "Cuffin said with another sly smirk, tapping his paws together, "He made me promise to ask ya a few things before I go off on my own thing. He'll get his feathers in a bunch if I don't, so humor me. First things first: why do you wanna join the Hunters?" The last question is accompanied by a roll of the eyes and a dramatic recitation, as if driving home the fact that he's being forced to ask this. He focused his gaze at Narxus.

"Why do we want to join the Hunters? Narxus said, "Well, for me I just like to have some adventure. Of course, we can join the Explorer if we wanted to, but my friend here-" He put a paw on the Eevee's shoulder "-wants to join the Hunter really badly, so I just follow him. Plus, I heard that the Hunter is quite a - Ah- profitable job." He finish this statement calming, smiling.

Cuffin then look at Frey, but he did not need a second invitation. "I was once saved by a Hunter. No, I do not know her name." This stopped Cuffin's question. "Even thought I forgot her name, I will never forget the day where she save me from being sold for slavery. She's a Sneasel, just so you know." His serious face broke momentarily, showing a face filled with gratitude, before catching himself and went back looking serious. "That's the reason I want to join the Hunter. I want to be like her. And, if possible, find her and thank her for that day."

At the very least, Cuffin looked interested as he listen to them. Perhaps it isn't the question itself he's so annoyed about. "All right. Respectable, yeah. Down the list..." The scruffy Furret reached for the parchment he wrote on earlier. Rather than holding it up to read, he crumpled it in his paws rather rudely, then promptly tossed it over his shoulder. Narxus and Frey were liking this Furret less and less.

"So, let's move on. What can you bring to the Hunters? What skills or talents can you utilize for us?" Once again, his recitation of the question is somewhat mocking.

The two Pokemons looked stunned. They hadn't thought of that yet. In fact, they didn't even think that Cuffin will ask this question at all.
"W-Well... We haven't thought about that..." Frey mumbled. Narxus eyes turned cold. Why would they ask this kind of question? Do they mean that only those who have skills and talents can join this Hunter Gu-

"Yeah, yeah, I gotcha. I guess we'll get to see some of that soon enough. Don't get me wrong; your answer don't mean you're gonna be thrown out. This is basically... formalities..." The two sighed in relief as Cuffin paused, tilting his head upward thoughtfully. "...Yeah, formalities. I think that's the word he used. Whatever that means."

A grin comes over the Furret's fuzzy face as he readies himself for his next question, lowering the register of his voice. "This one's more interestin', to the little guy's credit. Are you against doin' things that the Royal Guard ain't gonna like if they catch ya doin' em?".

Now THAT is a question they are expecting. But they didn't like the way Cuffin question them. It was as if he's mocking them, thinking that they will say yes.

"Well, of course we will be happy to carry out that kind of order, as extreme as it is, if it is appropriate. Does it look like we don't know that?" Narxus asked, his calm voice filled will ice. "Or," Frey added on with a growl, "Are you questioning our courage?"

The Normal-type's pointed ears twitch at the reply. "It ain't me, just sayin'. I know well enough that if yer here, then you an' I are prolly already aware of the answer to that question. I just needed somethin' to tell the kid." With a sigh of relief, Cuffin tosses his hands in the air, then at the sides of the chair dramatically. "Whew. All right, enough of that stuff. The kid is on the right track, but sometimes it seems like the royals crammed a stick really far up there, if ya know what I mean. All these "formalities" and junk... anyway, the rest is straight from me."

He looks left, then right... but given the way his bright eyes are never quite focusing on them, this seems to be one of those "formalities" of his own. He then begins to explain in an oddly sincere fashion, "You already know the basic stuff, so I'm gonna level with ya. Truth is, the Hunters are all about knowin' things about everybody else. Yer gonna learn secrets that nobody else will know. It'll change the way you look at this whole city, and yer prolly not gonna like what you see, but you'll always know exactly what's goin' on under the coat of sugar. I wouldn't blame ya if you'd rather go hang with a Guild that doesn't deal in the worst of what Andalusst can offer."

Narxus and Frey glanced at each other. They already knew most of these. They- or rather, Narxus had asked around the town and got enough information about this Hunter Guild. Cuffin obviously didn't think that they had come prepared. "We fully understand what we should do to make our town a better place. Besides," Narxus stop for a while, before continued with a smile, " Who doesn't want to know everything about everybody?"

Cuffin looked stunned for a second. Then, for the first time, laughed. His laughter, for some reason, sounded pleasantly and even managed to let Frey smiled "Hahahaha.... Well said! Well said! Who doesn't wanna know everything about everybody? Life is all about keepin' yer options as open as possible 'til the right moment."

Just then, the waiter came into earshot, flippers laden with everyone's orders. As he hesitate with the platter containing Cuffin's meal, one couldn't help but wonder if he's contemplating on spitting in it. The Furret doesn't appear to be looking at him anyway... but the duo had the feeling that he couldn't even if he wanted to. The silver platters are placed on the table with mild clatter, but Cuffin faced Narxus and Frey again before paying them any mind.

"Before we eat..." he interrupted, reaching down and palming the nearest glass. He holds it up and forward across the table."Let's toast, to the new recruits," Cuffin proposed. "But first," Cuffin stopped for a while, "what will you guys be called? That's yer team's name I'm talking about." Narxus and Frey looked at each other. Slowly, a smile appeared on both of their faces, as if they were sharing some inside joke. They both looked back at Cuffin, and replied together in a clear voice.

"We are Team Fated Star."
