So this was Bahari Island, the place Katherine's sister had chosen to live. Katherine looked around, trying to see what had drawn Lily there. So far, all she could see was the near-constant drizzle, and a grumpy, sodden Growlithe who seemed rather eager to find shelter. But he was needed, and for that reason he trudged reluctantly after his trainer.
Katherine had come to Drizzle Village for a reason, and the reason was not her sister. No, on this occasion she had come to- once again- stock up on supplies. Having stolen from a shop in Tonga once, she had realised the threat that came with trying to steal in the same place she lived- it would be more likely someone would recognise her. And since it was pretty easy to get from island to island, she figured she may as well steal from another island instead. So it was with caution that she moved down the streets, eyeing the store fronts, looking for an easy target with food on offer.
Bandit was helping with that. The Growlithe was snooping around the doorways, testing how each owner reacted to his presence- all on her orders, of course. Every so often Katherine would flick her hand, giving a wordless, visual signal to the canine. But it was beginning to look hopeless. There was the berry shop, of course, but that was little help to her when she wanted food for herself as well as her Growlithe.
She scowled, before giving a signal to Bandit. If they didn't find a shop soon, they would have to move on to the riskier option of houses. Katherine hoped it would not come to that, but she had already spent enough time lingering around the shops. Anybody who had watched her for any length of time and had even the faintest idea about thieves would no doubt soon realise what she was up to. Subtlety was not her specialty. Her sister was the sly and tricky one- Katherine just got in and got out, often leaving chaos in her wake.
