Chapter 14:The perfect spot!
________________________________________________________________________________________
*Ding!*
"Welcome~"The Cashier at the Convenience Store greeted me as soon as I came in the shop.
Its been a few hours after that interesting, encounter with my neighbor happened and its also been a few hours after me and Ditto was searching for the perfect place to anchor the Shop's Semi-Omnipresence on.
Ditto is on my right shoulder hanging around,thanks to his Epic grade potential, just training for a few minutes is all whats needed for ditto to become adept at transforming into different cats, so right now he looks just like a normal callico cat, a popular breed of cat in this country.
Now, going back to the topic about the best location, what i was thinking about the location of the shop is that it needs to be able to easily attract customers, but it also has to be in a hidden place where anyone can just find easily.
Pretty contradictory but it is what it is...I dont want the shop to be packed, because it will.
Once word comes out that people can buy cute and magical Animals that can potentially cause damage more than the strongest nuke if trained enough will be pretty popular.
Both Types of it... Because i know some people out there would inevitably learn of the pokemon and would basically want to Hoarde all of them...By hook or by crook.
*cough* anyways, let's just leave that problem to the future me and lets get back on the previous topic.
Right now im on this convenience store to buy Ditto and Myself some snack after searching the perfect spot for a few hours.
I walked to the food aisle planning to get myself a Yakisoba Pan as well as my favorite drink Matcha Tea.
I first got myself the Matcha tea before going to the Bread Aisle to get myself a yakisoba pan.
but upon reaching there there was only a singular yakisoba pan left.
I was planning on buying 2 for Ditto and I, but well, I guess I'll just buy Ditto something different so i walked towards it and grabbed it with closed eyes, smiling happily while doing so.
but just as I grabbed the Yakisoba Pan, I felt a resisting force which made me open my eyes and look towards the person who dares to try and take MY Yakisoba Pan.
It was a girl, She has a long red wavy hair with an ahoge, she also has a pair of golden five point star hairpins in each side of her head.
Her eyes are blue, which somehow reminds me of Ichika, the neighbor I met before, and looking closely at her face and overall body, they have the exact same body, kinda like a clone, the only difference she has with Ichika is her Hair and accesory.
Plus, Ichika did mention that she and her "Sisters" so this one is probably one of her sisters, Super Beautiful as well by the way.
Still, Neighbor or not, and Beautiful or not..This is MY Yakisoba that she's trying to get! plus she's carrying a lot of snacks already! I can see several Mochi's, Dorayaki, and heck even Pockies...
"Oi, Let go..."I said threateningly while glaring at her, which made her flich a little but she got her courage.
"No...How about you let go?"She said with an equally Deterring voice as mine, as she glared at me as well.
"No, You let go! I touched this one first!"I said loudly.
"Nope! It was I who touched it first! so you let go!"She retorted back.
""Grrrrrr!!"" The two of us started to growl and glare at each other.
"You're already carrying a lot of food! Give other people some chance!"I exclaimed.
"Haah? I am not carrying a lot!"She retorted.
"Bruh... You're literally carrying multiple Bags of Mochi's, 2 Packs of Pocky, and heck! You evene got a few bags of Dorayaki"I said blankly while staring at her with a blank face.
"S-so? Im buying a lot because im giving some of them to my Sisters" She stuttered at first as she said a pretty obvious lie.
"Well, Im buying this one for me and my Buddy here to share! Isnt that right Bud??"I told her before looking towards ditto who was just staring at us before.
"Mreow~!"Ditto Sounded while nodding.
Seeing what Ditto did the girl was stunned for a bit before muttering.."D-did that cat just Nod?" in a shaky voice.
"Mreow~"Ditto once again nodded.
"It did!!" Seeing Ditto Nod once again, The Girl Exclaimed in shock, and As Ditto was distracting her, her grip on the Yakisoba Pan Lightened so I Yanked it away.
"Nice! Thanks Ditto!" I said before trying to give Ditto a High Five, which Ditto reciprocated with a tap using his paws.
and of course the girl saw that which made her shock more, I looked at her smugly before going to the counter to pay for the Yakisoba Pan and Matcha Tea, and while on the way there i stopped for a bit to get Ditto a food of his own, Its a pretty popular Pastry here on Japan, It is shaped like a fish and has a red bean paste filling.
Yup! Taiyaki! Ditto chose it because it looks like a fish, and why did Ditto choose a fish shaped meal?
Well~ the reason is precisely because he's a cat right now! I have explained it before, Ditto's Transformation, unlike in the anime or games, Ditto will also copy the Characteristics, Behavior and Some stats of the Pokemon/Animal he decided to transform into!
Like for example right now, Ditto transformed into a cat, by altering his genes to become that of a cat's, though Ditto wont really get all the behavior as of now...Right now he would only get One or two random Random Cat behavior.. And right now, Ditto has gotten the behavior that is the Cat's liking for a fish, and Their laziness..
.

//Beep//
"Yakisoba Pan,Matcha Milk Tea, and Taiyaki all of them will total the amount of 7 U.C"The Cashier said, announcing the Total amount of United Credits that i would need to pay..
"Alright!...Here!"I said, after paying him the exact amount needed.
"Thank you very much for your patronage Dear Customer!, Please come again!"The Cashier said as he bowed his head at my retreating figure...
As we arrived outside i picked up Ditto the 'Cat' off my shoulder before i sat down in a bench near the convenience store, afterwards i placed Ditto besides me on the bench before taking out the taiyaki and feeding it to him by placing the taiyaki in the bench with its wrapper as a plate.
"Here you go! Eat up! Afterwards we'll continue searching the Perfect Spot for the shop"I said to Ditto,and patting him while he was eating.
Afterwards, I also had my luch, Starting from the Yakisoba Pan before finishing it of by drinking the Macha Milk Tea.
*Gulp* "Ahhh~ This is the best~ "I said in satisfaction after drinking the matcha milk tea.
I looked towards Ditto, only to find that he's already asleep, the Taiyaki nowhere to be seen.
"Humu~ Break time is over Ditto~ So wake up"I said cheerily, an effect of me eating the delicious Yakisoba Pan and my Favorite Macha Milk tea.
*mreow* *zzzzz* Seeing Ditto is still fast asleep, i wasnt mad and instead picked him up and carried him in my embrace, before i started to wander again, looking for the perfect spot.
"Hmhm~ Hmhm~ Stay with me~ Mayona-....."Ad i walked i hummed and sung favourite song of mine.. Forgetting about the previous encounter with the possible sister of Ichika, a neighbor.
.
.
The streets are bustling with people walking about their own way, The rhythmic taps of their walking feet echoes in my ears as i walked in the Capital City of Japan, Tokyo.
Now, Why am i here you ask? Well, I decided that instead of placing the shop near the area i am residing in, I could just place it in another City! A big city where you can get customers and stay Hidden as well! Hide in Plain sight that is!
Yup! I decided to just Anchor the shop in the City of Tokyo where there are a lot of activity!
Right now i am walking towards a Cafe that apparently serves one of the greatest Coffe in the City!
Its name was Antei-ka or Ku or something, I got to know about this Cafe from a certain Popular Food Critique that goes by the name of M.A.Y
Anyways~ The reason why I am super excited about this place is that it is apparently super hidden and only a few people know of this place~ Plus! Theres also a building just in front of it that is For Sale! Just what i needed!
After reaching a certain road in Tokyo, i looked around the place to find a Certain Street Lamp which is a landmark that will point towards the Location of the cafe.
I looked around for a few seconds but didn't see it, so i moved in the other spot where i finally found it!
The Street lamp in question has a mark of a one eyed mask in it, and on M.A.Y's guide it says that the cafe is located where the Eye is looking towards.
So i followed where the Eye was staring and saw a certain Alleyway, So i walked towards it and saw a 2 store Small building.
There is a stair leading to the second floor which is the main room where people can drink Coffe, it also has a little balcony where 3 Tables that each has 2 chairs reaide.
Currently there are 3 people sitting in the balcony table the first is a pair of 2 guys, one of them was a somewhat short and scrawny young man wearing a turquoise hoodie, light black pants, running shoes with a yellow toe and blue outlines reaching the middle of the black base of the soles, he has black hair, pretty normal.
the other guy on the other hand is a young man of average height with short, messy, dirty blonde hair with dark roots and olive eyes, wearing bright colored clothes that consist of a yellow varsity jacket and green shorts, He also sports a pair of headphones that is hanging around his neck.
He looks Japanes, but his hair is blonde, and now that i think of it, I met and passed by a lot of people that has different hair colors on my way here, so its not that strange i guess?
Now onto the last person,a slender girl with chest-length purple hair of normal height that has bangs swept to the left side, purple eyes, full pink lips and an hourglass figure, she's also sporting a pair of red frame glasses. Wearing a White dress with purple sleeves.
*cough* After gazing at them for a split second I walked towards the stairs leading into the cafe, hoping to ask worker or the manager about the building in front of the cafe.
The building in question was just a plain one-story blue building, It honestly looks just like a bakery, but it doesn't matter!
because it will only act like a gate of some sorts towards the main body which is inside the Pokefarm!
Anywho, after ascending the stairs i was greeted by a Wooden Door with a glass window in it..
Besides the door is an Umbrella rack, which currently only has 2 umbrella.
I reached towards the door knob before opening it.
*Ding*
"Welcome!"
....
....
.....
//10 minutes later.//
I am now in front of my newly bought building..Turns out that the owner of this building is also the Cafe's Manager Mr.Yoshimura.
After Reaching an agreement and Signing some Paperwork, I am now the owner of this building! bakery in this case.
Now then, lets get right into it!
'System, Anchor this building as one of the shop's entrance.' I muttered in my head.
And with my cue, a system window appeared in front of me.

After the Progress bar was completed the previous Bakery Like shop has now been altered to look similar to the Shop inside my Poke-farm.
Now, People might wonder why i did this in broad daylight? and with a cafe in front no less.
The reason why i don't mind it at all is because only the inside has changed, the outside didn't change on bit, so i have no worry.
All i just need now is to put up a sign, and to think of a name for the shop....
*groan* and I'm bad at naming things...
'I haven't even named Ditto yet....and speaking of him..'I muttered inside my head, before i took out the Mimicball housing Ditto.
I decided to just put Ditto inside the PokeBall, since he's not really helping right now...with his laziness and all.
Darn Cat DNA....Wouldve been better if the DNA reversion happens fast, and not take a few hours for it to revert.
Now you might be confused on what im talking about, so let me explain.
You see,Right now Ditto transformed into a cat, so he got 2 of the cat's behavior, namely: a cat's liking of fish and a cat's laziness.
well, turns out that the behavior stays for a few hours till it disappears, currently that is.
since Ditto isnt really that adept at transformation yet, heck he's only a day old so its not surprising.
*cough* anyways back on the topic at hand.
Anyways I thought that the laziness would disappear if he turns back in his base form a while back, but i was wrong..
Turns out that because Ditto don't really have that much control in his transformation ability,(which is normal, considering that hes only born today.) It would take him time to undo the traits he gets from the animal/pokemon he transforms into.
Although He just needs to train to fix that, and considering his Purple/Epic potential, it wont really take that long.
A week at best, probably.
Basically, he's just untrained, and the transformation issue will get fixed in a weeks time at best.
And after it is fixed, Ditto will have the ability to choose wether to keep the traits he gets for a while or just turn it back to default.
Currently Dittos transformation is at the Beginner level, and he would need to get it into Proficient to be able to choose wether to keep or Discard the traits.
at Advanced, he can choose to not get simple traits like behaviors and such.
and if Ditto can master the move, he would be able to Choose what trait he can get whenever he transform.
And I'm sure Ditto can Master transformation in a year at most, because one, its an inherent ability of the Ditto species, and 2 Ditto's potential is violet/epic rank, and thats if he's not actively training!
.....
Now, going back to Ditto whos inside the PokeBall, its already been an hour and a half or more after i put him inside the ball.
I dont know what he's currently doing but my best bet is that he's sleeping.
and opening Ditto's Status Window Confirmed it..

See~ he's asleep.
Now you guys might have noticed, Ditto's Transformation is at beginner level now, thats because we trained in before so he can transform into a cat perfectly!
appearance-wise that is.
this is why im so sure that Ditto's Transformation will reach Profecient in a week or less.
