Amber looks around nervously, a little bit of tears welling up in her eyes
"I'm confused. Can everyone just calm down and tell me whats going on?"

A bead of sweat rolls down the side of Travis' face as he nervously waits for Raven's decision. He stands as still as a statue, pleading with his eyes for Raven to make the right choice. He swallows, trying to force down the lump in his throat brought about by all this tension, which has only gotten worse now that he realizes that he's standing dangerously close to a Stunky.

Walter's Sandile, Steve, looks pleased as it exits its Pokeball, nipping on his Trainer's heels playfully. Not exactly pleasant considering the sharp teeth, but it's harmless all the same. It takes a moment for him to realize that he should be acting serious and hisses at the Stunky in kind... but floats his eyes up to Walter as if looking for praise.

Ivy, Alex's Snivy, is released from his Pokeball at attention with a serious look on its face. It looks its nose down at the Stunky with its hands behind its back in a powerful stance, eyeing the Pokémon with disdain. At Alex's order to remain alert, it scans its eyes from side to side, nodding its head and letting out a squeal toward the bushes where he can see glinting metal.

As everyone begins talking at once, Raven clenches a twitching fist to her face, as if she's too angry to contain herself.
"Shut up!" she orders, causing her Stunky to jump a bit. She stands her ground and takes another drag off of her cigarette, blowing the smoke in Travis's face. It looks like she didn't appreciate him getting any closer than he was.
"Back. Up," Raven growls, "Before I put this out in your eye." Her threat is just that, a threat. For now. But not for long.

"Sure, Raven," Travis says, dropping his kindness act and settling for solemn sincerity instead. Maybe if she can see that he at least genuinely means what he's been saying, it'll help things. "Whatever you want. Let's back up, guys."

He begins to move away. He hopes that his friends will do so as well but understands that they have the right to do otherwise. He has no way of really knowing, but just in case his pals are getting tired of hearing Travis being spoken to this way and are contemplating doing something about it, he casts them both a quick glance intended to let them know he's fine, and that Raven's verbal abuse isn't harming him.

"Hey, Ivy what did you find?" Alex looks over to the bushes noticing the bikes. "Good eye, Ivy. Go point it out for everyone else."

"I'm going to go check out the bushes. Ivy thinks she found something o..." he's interrupted by smoke-induced coughing fit. After he takes a moment to regain is composure he carries on, sounding a bit more frustrated, "I'm going to check on what Ivy found. And for the record, that was a pretty crappy thing to do, Raven. But if it didn't bother Travis, I won't do anything. He's a pretty good guy who just wants to help. Maybe you should try and meet him half way and at least tell him what's wrong. Whatever, I'm done with this for now. Travis, let me know when we can get on to something more interesting, like exploring this building or catching pokemon. Hell, I'll settle for another lecture on mythical pokemon at this point. I'll be in the bushes over there until then." With that Alex turns his back and walks over to the bushes to figure out more about what is going on here.

With Alex and his Snivy's combined attentiveness, getting closer to the bushes reveals a grand total of 5 bikes. Two of them are smaller than the others, one of them is beat-up and is pretty huge with a basket on the back, one of them looks like it'd be sort of expensive and the final one has a bunch of stickers of rock bands on it. It looks as if someone took the effort hide them there. Ivy runs its leafy hands over the one in better shape, captivated by the gleam of well-maintained chrome.

Raven does put her cigarette out, but does so on the ground instead of a certain someone's face. She immediately goes to light another one, however. She seems to have calmed down a bit.
"Okay, look," she starts in an even tone, "I know you're tryin'a act nice or whatever, but you're all socially awkward losers so you're creepier than anything else? But I don't want you here, and you can beg and try to flatter me all you want but I'm not about to just step aside and let you in. So turn around and go home, alright?" She takes another drag off of her cigarette and her Stunky chooses to lie down at her feet.
"I don't wanna have to fight you, so go away," she says coldly. Her eyes glance sideways toward Alex for a moment, before calling out,
"You touch my bike and you're dead, squirt!"

Alex ignores Raven as she goes on and on. She's been spiting vile the entire time and it's bite has started to wear off. "Hey gang, Ivy found 5 bikes over here in the bushes. Ivy seems quite fond of this one, so why don't we take just take them. It'll sure make the trip away from here a lot easier."

"Oh! one of these bikes is yours. Guess the others are your friends." Alex proceeds to throw all of the bikes out of the bushes as roughly as possible. All except the shiny one. He planned on taking that one if someone didn't come to claim it. "Sorry, death threats make me do silly things like fling bikes out of bushes." Alex has a sly smile on his face.

Nailed it!

Travis' jaw drops. Now he doesn't know what to do. Out of ideas and open to suggestion, he just looks to his other companions and even Raven for help.

Walter grins viciously. "So we want to get past you, and you really don't want to let us past. On the other hand, you probably don't want your bike trashed. And the thing is, there's three of us and one of you. You try and stop Alex, I'll try and stop you, Travis will try and stop the fight from breaking out and by the time you're next to your bike, Alex will have had plenty of time to mess with it. So it's your choice really. Whats more important, keeping us here or protecting your bike?"

"Okay, no, no, we're not doing this," in all the confusion, Stacy takes the opportunity to quickly move between the girl's Pokemon and her imminent target, before anything bad happens. While keeping up a friendly attitude was nice to strive for and all... petty vandalism? Yeah, he's not having any of that.

"Alex. Walty. What the Flying-type F*** are you doing?" yelling this, he turns towards the girl, hoping not to receive a Tackle to the stomach in the process. "Okay, ehm, don't go crazy. I hope your bike wasn't between those? You still alright? We'll back off, mkay?" his head turns towards Travis. "We will, right?"
