Given the subject matter and how good of a customer Pyra and her friends have been (and likely will be in the future with all that cash), the purple Kecleon will escort her to Café Connection, no additional roll required (this time).  "It wouldn't do at all to have such wealth stolen, right brother?"

"No it wouldn't, brother.  I'll watch the shop.  You keep an eye out for thieves.  If any dare to make a move on our paying customers, they shall know just how fatal a mistake they've made!"

"Of course, brother!  Pyra, I shall you watch you from the shadows until you're in the café!  Do not fear!"

And with that, purple Kecleon vanishes from sight instantaneously!  Pyra is able to make it to Café Connection without further incident, and she arrives soon after Kee gets his answer from Kangaskhan.

-----------------------------------------------------

It's then that Pyra enters the café to deposit her items, and the Parent pokemon is quick to pick up on how agitated the Devimp is.

"Well hello there, dearie!  Yes, I can absolutely hold onto that item for you.  Did something happen, though, dearie?  You can rest easy knowing your items are safe with me, so no need to look so wary."

When the Purple Keckleon Bro agreed to escort her Pyra's relief palatable, her previous calm and polite demeanor evaporating into one of immense gratitude.

"Oh my deepest thanks and greatest happiness, Mechant Masters Kecleon! Promise to you I will that my next visit shall have me share my wealth with you, yes, and owe you a Favor in kind for your kindness! "

She'd probably have tried to hug her escort too, but then his disappearance act prevent that from happening, leaving only her thanks and vows as 'payment' for their service. Probably for the best, really!

The brimstone imp's response to Kanguskhan was quick, effusing, yet comprehensive, her nerves and paranoia net quite yet calmed after she safely deposited her 2x Units of Scrap Metal in the maternal marsupial manager's care, wringing her claws together as she practically vomitted out her words at record breaking speeds.

"Yes, yes, you are right and correct. Bumped into by a Machop while heading to Merchant Masters Kecleon. Spilled my gilded treasures, Gold Scarves and Big Nugget because of him, yes. Helped tidy up mess he made, undo his accidental assault, but started acting wierd and suspiciously, made haste to get away most Skittishly. Had run in with a Criminal Monferno in wretch Hall of Magic with my group - which we pounded and beat and turn into the police - who shared with us that he had fellow villains in town he worked with-for, and would fervently seek vengeance for his browbeaten apprehension. That and them together in pair made me.....nervous and wary, cautious of getting Ambushed by him or others later and lose my friends' treasures. Most fortunately I got to Kecleons Green and Purple without harry or issue, and they helped cover and protect my journey to your cosy café. That is all, the whole story of this, yes yes yes."

It should be noted that Pyra was very wound up about this incident, to the point of not noticing Kee even though he would probably be rather near her as she was so focused on getting her Big Nugget into Kang's care and recounting the aforementioned incident. No guess as to why she was so antsy for him, eh?
