Side Story: The Trapinch
The land of sand and rock is the place I call home. It was going like any other day for me digging tunnels, hunting for food, and traversing the craggy scape with my brethren but it is then that it all went awry.
It all started with me minding my own business doing a hobby I just got myself into which is biting rocks, It's not the most exciting thing but when your living in a place with only the stuff available it leaves little to no other choice but this activity also helps in keeping my teeth sharpened which on itself made it a worthwhile past time. It is then that this human appeared out of nowhere, humans are not a new sight in these parts as they use it as a passage so we tend to not mind them unless they encroach too near.
I along with my brother and sisters tried to flee however I was unlucky enough to be captured by a two-headed beast that the human called upon. There it was certain that my end has come but I thought that if this day is my last I'm going down in a blaze of glory so I start biting at the two-headed beast but it was undisturbed by my attacks clearly a being of higher prowess, one that I can only hope to look up to in awe and fright.
When I became tired and unable to move, I finally accepted my fate but then the beast suddenly loosens its maws and then put me down in between two large rocks, and then the human approached me and started talking. While the human boy was speaking I tried as hard as I can to prop myself up and run away but my stubby legs do not have any strength left so I was left with no choice but to listen to the human's ramblings.
It seems that they are interested in the nest of the rulers of the quaking ground that lorded over this area for generations and if I told them the information they need they promised to let me go but they did not say what they will do if I did not comply so I can only imagine myself being a quick snack.
I as a descendant of the great spirit of the desert am not one to cause problems to others for my own benefit but when the due realize that I was not cooperating the beast started acting friendly however with an expression exuding that of a hungry predator it was all to clear that it was but a façade and to make matters more frighteningly strange the beast started singing.
I don't know what I did to be subjected to that harassment and so in the end, I caved however not due to fear but the small colorful thing they fed me called a Poffin. I've dined in the most luscious berries before in the oasis but none could come close to the wonder that is the Poffin.
True to their word after gaining the information that they needed they allowed me to go like nothing out of the ordinary happened. A week passed after the human and the two-headed beast had left but the experience gave way to nightmares that haunted me for a few days however that's only a minor thing as even though my oppressors had long gone I still had yet to forget the taste of the Poffin that they carry.
The supple taste of the treat in itself put me in a position of indescribable longing, hoping for even once have another chance to taste the food that started this all. I will even be willing to go through the same experience of terror if it means another piece of Poffin will go my way but alas it is all just wishful thinking driven by a mind that's slowly delving into insanity. Time moved slowly as the days turned into weeks and weeks to months until one day my craving caused something in me to snap.
(I need to get Poffins!)
Staying here and hoping for a day to come that I'll once again dine on the delectable treat won't get me anywhere as such I concluded that I must venture forth for the Poffins myself.
I told my brethren about my decision to leave and seek out the delicious Poffins which got a lot of criticizing judgments about the dangers out in the world outside our home but my brother was especially not too happy about it.
'Tra trapinch' why must you go?
'Tra trapinch tra' for the Poffins
'Trapinsh tra?' What even is Poffin and is it really that good?
'Traa pinch tra ...…..' For me, I really like Poffin
'Trapinch' What do you like about Poffin?
'Trapinch!' It's Poffin!
'........'
"Trapinch …." A Smooth round thing with spots
'........'
'Trapinch' It has the Puff
'Trapinch?' It has the Puff?
'Trapinch tra .... ' I can't imagine a more beautiful thing
'Trapinch tra trapinch ... ' I see you have lost it sister but it's clear that you have some special connection with this … Poffin? But you won't last long outside, especially in your condition, you did not think I did not notice that you had barely eaten in the past few days, don't you? Better forget about this nonsensical decision of yours got it?
'......'
...................
It was not like I was asking for permission so in the dead of night I dug my way out of the nest and escaped to the direction where the human came from. I know that this decision is the same as trading the life I had lived with family and friends just to pursue a faint goal for something I may never even find again but for some odd reason I know that if I don't go now I will regret it for the rest of my life.
I traveled far for an unknowable amount of time it may be months or even years since I left. I made it out of the place I call home through vast forests, and human settlements but then one faithful day I picked up a familiar scent. It may be my mind playing tricks on me due to the fatigued I'm experiencing but the scent beckons me forward. I hurried over and dug my way through a tall wall and traversed a small forest and reached an area filled with a calming ambiance in the middle of it all was a body of water, however, what I saw next shook me to my very core it was a tiny human throwing my beloved Poffins into the water.
'Trapinch!' NOOOOOO!
I ran towards the tiny thing to stop the madness but before I could get any closer my four tiny legs gave in to the fatigue that accumulated over my long journey and so I dropped. The last thing I saw before losing myself to the darkness is the little human taking notice of me and hurrying over.
(At least she stopped dumping my beloved Poffins in the water that's good ... ) 'Blackout'
...................
I woke up in a room with the tiny human and an older dapper-looking human with another creature holding a pair of metal sticks which then proceeded to converse with me in my mind.
'Are you okay little one'
'Yes I am, where am I?'
'you are in our young lady's room, she found you passed out near the lake'
'It's her! The one who throws away Poffin in the lake … AHHHHH!'
I tried to pounce on the little human but my body failed to move an inch clearly indicating that I am yet to recover my strength.
'Calm yourself little one their must be a miss understanding'
'I understand clearly as I saw her waste Poffins by dumping them in the lake.'
'I see then you are wrong about one thing'
'…..?'
'The young lady is simply feeding her friend Magikarp Poffins, you see the one in the tank of water over there? that's Blubbers the Magikarp"
I turned to the side and saw a red creature in the tank of water observing me
'Blob' 'bubbles sound' hi
'......'
'Blob, Blob' I'm Blubber the Magikarp
I stared at the strange-looking thing encased in a clear cage before turning my attention back to the metal sticks carrying individual.
'Really? Do you mean to tell me she fed that small one with that many Poffins? Even I only get to taste a few!'
'Indeed to a point that our supply for today had run out which ....'
'Stop! So no more Poffins?'
'Yes for today we have no more in stock.'
'Trapinch! tra trapinch ....' Nooo! I curse you small red one, You took everything from me.
'Blob, Blob ...' I don't even know who you are.
Little did I know that this exchange is the start of a long rivalry with a future companion with who I will travel around the world along with a little human named Alice that was currently trying to poke me with a stick but was continuously foiled by the dapper old man.
