Chapter Twenty-One
It wasn’t long before Sara found herself bidding her wife goodbye as Penny prepared to enter the bus for her trip. “Enjoy yourself but be careful” she told her wife. “There are a lot of dangerous people out there.”
“I’m staying with my sister” the brunette replied. “The one with a monster for a husband? I’ll be going to the Music Festival with her and her family so I’ll be okay. But yes, I’ll be careful. You just get that design worked out, I want to see this dual Pokeball soon.”
“Bring me back a souvenir” Sara asked. “Something to let me know you had a good time.”
Penny patted the now worn leather Pokeball case on her side. “Oh, I have some ideas.”
“Something I can show other people” Sara refined.
“Oh, a tourist souvenir. You bet.” With a final kiss Penny boarded the bus. A few minutes later it left the station and an already lonely redhead behind.
When the bus was out of sight Sara returned to her now empty home and the work that lay before her. She had discovered with the help of her design suite that Type Eleven’s had more than enough physical space in them for her needs. But it was constricted space and the factory had placed form fitting padding into the case. With her small shop the chance of building a dual Pokeball before Spring was laughable. Plus she needed to rewrite about two thousand lines of code or more. At least in her search for the secret to release Penny from her Pokeball Sara had already found and marked almost every line of code that she needed to re-write. With Penny gone all the housework fell on her shoulders, as well as fixing all her own meals. With sigh of sadness the young redhead walked home. At least there were the special Pokeball’s to keep her company. Especially Patricia, the favorite of Penny and who had turned out to be quite helpful after her capture. Sara’s Pokeball data was starting to make sense now and Patricia, after spending a week in a Pokeball was a lot more than just a warm body in bed.
Other than as a playtoy, Lucy was a completely useless abnormality it seemed.
