"Whatever kind of candy you want we'll buy it for you, jst calm down kid." Zen replied, as he stopped beside Xalen. "Xallen you ask him..." Zen replied, he then whispered to Xallen his reason why, "I'm not too good with kids." Zen sighed.

((Stupid kid, not liking saltwater taffy...Damnit, now I want some. xd ))
He gave the saltwater taffy a dirty look, it was the stuff his aunt patsy always tried to give him it wasn't too appealing. He looked back at Xallen.
"I like chocolate..."

Xallen looked into his pocket, and there was a small piece of chocolate inside. He pulled it out, and held it out so the kid could see it. He'd easily recognize it as one of Gaia's most popular brands of chocolate. "I've got this, and I know a place where we could buy you a chocolate bar almost the size of your arm. You just need to tell me everything you know about some special marbles."

The boy looked suspicous, his mother had always told him not to talk to strangers, but a candy bar as big as his arm? He looked down at his arm and stretched it out.
"Just for telling you about special marbles?" He wasn't quite ready to believe him.

No reason to lie at this point. Xallen went all out with the bribery. Kids were great. "We might want to trade one of your marbles for more chocolate, if you have one of them. I think we'd like to look at all of your marbles so we can see if there are any we want. But if we find a marble we like, and you give it to us, we'll give you money for two candy bars that size."

That sealed the deal as far as the boy was concerned. IF they tried to double cross him, they'd regret it. For for the moment, and the idea of two giant chocolate bars, he was willing to trust them. "They're all pretty normal, except this one that fell out of the sky a few days ago..." He offered that one up to Xallen. Stonewall Color: Dark Blue Get +5 Defense. The Defense bonus goes away when you take this off, so if you only have 5 Defense left, I'd advise leaving it on.

Xallen pulled out his wallet, and grabbed five hundred gold. He also happened to have a business card of the candy shop named Gaia's Best Chocolate Shop. Its slogan was "We make candy the size of your arm!" It seemed Xallen wasn't lying. He put the gold and card in the boy's hand and took the marble with his other hand. He could tell this marble was worth something. "You should be able to find it close-by. Good luck kid, and thanks for helping us."
((For points purposes, I take it this is a puzzle and a rare marble?))
EDIT: ((And wasn't that marble a white one just a moment ago?))

"Nice work, so where to now buddy?" Zen asked, he was looking at the marble until Xallen placed it in his pocket, "Hey, why not let me hold on to that one dude, I think that one suits me."

Xallen nodded at his ally in agreement. "Yes, that was good. We should probably trade though. I think this one suits you better." Xallen handed his new marble to Zen, expecting to receive the restore marble in return. "I was thinking perhaps the red light district? That was where I originally headed...everyone needs a break every now and then."

"Yeah we have been at it for a while." Zen pulled the recharger from his pocket and handed it to Xallen in exchange for the stonewall. "here, you might want this, what did you think of tadashi's message, you think our marbles are gonna malfunction us?"

Xallen pondered the message for a bit before responding, "I think that since we have a spare marble, there are no worries. However, if we lost some of the marbles we're using..."
He shook his head. "You know what, let's just go to the red light district and take a break for a little bit." So he left.

"Yeah let's go, I need to rest up and eat something." Zen replied, he followed Xallen to the red light district, at least this last mission was easy as it was.
