IT'S A ONE-HIT K.O!

    It was underneath a particularly large, towering tree in the forest that Scruff had decided to rest for the night. After burying her bag in whatever nature had to offer (she had learned early on never to leave any possessions out in the open during the night), she sat down, leaned against the tree, let out a humongous yawn, and drifted off to sleep.

    Her early awakening the next morning was a rather rude one. Some unlucky soul walking by had neglected to notice the Scrafty asleep on the ground and stepped on her tail. She hadn’t even opened her eyes before her reflexes kicked in and she leapt into the perpetrator head first, headbutting them as hard as she could.

   He'd been taking a jog that day, setting out a few days after the Holidays ended- not like the League was filled with challengers lately, anyway. So he thought a nice jog through Agron would do him some good.

   However that was 3 days ago and he'd managed to get lost in a Forest. Again. By the third morning, he had already resorted to some desperate measures, and would be lying if he said he hadn't considered eating tree-bark. Hell, wild Heracross do it, so why can't he? He kept walking through the forest, until he felt something underneath his foot, then an impact to his head, pushing him to the ground.

  "Eh?" He said, lying on the ground. Rubbing his head, he stared at the Scrafty in front of him. Wait, did...did Grump get out of his Pokéball? He checked his belt, making sure all his own Scrafty was still there. "Hey, what gives?"

  Reaching for his belt, he threw out his own Scrafty. Upon release, it immediately turned with a glare to the wild Pokémon, flaring its nose in annoyance. Wasn't nicknamed Grump for nothing.

 If his frown could deepen more, it would but he wouldn’t let it. He didn’t mean to sound that shallow, but he was slightly disappointed that Shine thought so. “Of course I had been listening to that inspirational speech, and have taken it to heart. That’s how I was able to pick that up. I’m quite certain it wasn’t my name you said there.” 

 Wait a minute. He’s read somewhere that people give each other shortened or endearing names as a show of friendship or comradery. “Oh, is it a nickname? Like how people refer to you as ‘Shine’?” Lavender eyes shone at the prospect. “I.. I would’ve caught on sooner if it wasn’t buried in that speech. But something like Fry..” Freyr quickly spouted some excuse pretending he knew all along. There was no way he was going to let anyone know about his lack of experience in the social field. At the same time, he cringed as the name left his lips. It just didn’t sound.. Cool.

[onehitpunch-blog]

   "Of course it was a nickname!" Shine said, sweat beading on his forehead. Things got tense out of nowhere. Thirty seconds ago, he had the complete control of the conversation. Now he had lost it thanks to his carelessness and selective memory.

   "Y'know, Fry's fitting. Because you're shorter than I am so...like a small fry." He let out a forced chuckle. "Though Shine isn't really a nickname, it's my name in Tournaments and it just stuck around." Thinking about it, not a whole lot of people knew his actual name- not that he minded. His name wasn't exactly 'Cool-sounding' either.

 “… I see. Is that how it is.”

  How could he not have seen something as simple as that. Freyr was honestly quite quite disappointed in himself. It wasn’t like he flaunted his title either, but he held it with such high regard he didn’t consider most other things. Running through the new perspective his bald senior had given him, he was determined to better himself with this new found outlook.

 However, there was one thing that bugged him even more his own naivety. Freyr hadn’t known the other elite for long since he had joined the Elite 4 not too long ago, so the others had only referred to him by his name and it didn’t seem like the others had much difficulty pronouncing it either. So when he recalled a portion of that moving speech that had seemed to have included an unnecessary piece, his frown deepened.

 “Wait a second. Did you just call me Fry!?”

[onehitpunch-blog]

  "Eh?"

   Oh, right. Shine might be wise and powerful. But there is a clear difference between being wise and being actually smart. He stood there, keeping a straight face and completely ignoring Freyr. Why are most names so difficult to remember? Then again, he had no problem remembering Freia's. But that was a different case.

  "No." He said, crossing his arms and looking away. "Is that all you focused in? Your name? Did any of what I say get through to you?"   Gotta play it off.

Shine receives a high-five from the administrator!

   "Come at me scrublord I'm fucking ripped."

 Shine's gonna lecture the entirety of Team Evo out of their plans.

 “Ack!” Freyr jumped back as an all too familiar voice spoke up. Aska, his Absol who had been accompanying him during his break calmly faced the other Elite member, while his trainer had the opposite reaction. Eyes widened at the sight of that bald head, knowing that the man before him had clearly overheard him talking to himself. One thing for sure, he didn’t mean to say any of those things out loud and he didn’t want to create any discord with the people he works with. 

 An apology would definitely be the right choice here, but once again that ego of his got the better of him. “Don’t you have pride in this title? This is something you worked hard over, right?It’s just strange that you can be so relaxed when you have finally obtained such a powerful position. ” As narrow minded as Freyr may seem, he really wanted to know Shine’s reasoning and perhaps a different outlook on the title of the ‘Elite 4′.  

[onehitpunch-blog]

   He had to admit; that reaction was funny. But right now, he wasn't in the mood for that. If there was one thing he hated, it was anyone trying to flaunt their skills like a badge, as though it makes them superior- or at least, that was the feeling he was getting from this whole thing. Taking in a deep breath, he began to lecture the young man.

   "Because getting here was my achievement, and it doesn't have to do with anyone else. Just because of my position doesn't mean I have to change, Fry. Our positions do not define us- we are much more than just the Elite Four. We are trainers who began like everyone else did, and just because of our titles we are not above anyone else." Shine spoke out, in a surprisingly solemn voice. "Do you know the only difference between you right now, and you starting out your journey was?"

   The Elite placed a hand on Freyr's shoulder. Even his look seemed to change- to most people, Shine could've come off as a goof. But right here, speaking with his fellow trainer, the Pokémon Master looked somewhat intimidating and a hell of a lot more severe.

   "A title. You are still the same kid that set out on a Journey, and if you can't see that maybe you haven't learned much in your career."

☁

☁ = being caught in the middle a storm with them .

   Drip. Drip. Drip.

   Inside the small shack, only drips could be break the thick silence alongside the sound of the rain and wind outside. He'd been walking outside the League when the rain started, and when the dark clouds started rolling in, he took shelter in the small building. What he didn't expect was that Freyr was also going to be here.

   "..."

  Normally, Shine'd attempt a conversation with Freyr, but after overhearing his comments on how Shine didn't seem to fit in with the Elite Four, he didn't have any interest in doing so. So an awkward silence filled the room, the tension seemed to be thick.

  He wondered how much longer the rain would last. Maybe he could just run through, Thundurus wouldn't happen to zap him, probably.

♡

♡ = complimenting them .

   "Thanks a lot," Shine said, his smile widening at the Gym Leader. "It means a lot coming from someone so... Y'know. Pretty."

   He actually blushed a bit, making his head look like a pink peach.

▄ (from freia, i'm just too lazy to change blogs)

▄ = telling them a joke .

  Shine laughed, patting Freia’s back. “Alright, alright. That was a good one.” He wiped off a tear of laughter from his eye. He hadn’t really figured Freia to be the type to make jokes, but he was glad she seemed to be getting more comfortable around him- and that he was getting more comfortable around her, too.

☁ = being caught in the middle a storm with them .

  Shine looked up while the first raindrops began to fall. He didn't know it was going to rain today, amazing. His walk shifted into a slow jog as he made his way towards the closest shelter- a small gardening shed outside. When he walked in, he shook himself off (water droplets still on his bald-ass head though) and sat down, looking through the door.

   After about a minute of contemplating, he noticed someone running into the cabin, then shake themselves off and stand there. Wait. Was that...Faye?

  "Hey, Faye! Nice weather for staying indoors, right?" He said, smiling awkwardly. "Well, not this kind of indoors, but still."

   He was going to shit his pants form how nervous he was.

[onehitpunch-blog]

There is a box containing a bottle of in Shine's mailbox. You're welcome.

  He did not deserve this.

♡

♡ = complimenting them .

   Shine laughed, a bit nervous and flustered. "Hey, c'mon that's not true. You're also a very strong trainer, and you deserve your place at the Elite Four, not to mention how you're actually good looking."

[onehitpunch-blog]

Δ OHHHHHH WAIT

☢ = falling over .

  Hah! He laughed, what a dumbass. Poor ghost boy.

[onehitpunch-blog]

❤ { would shine die? who knows

❤ = kissing them .

   As the Admin approached him, he didn't feel any danger. She's not exactly in a fighting stance, and if her arms reaching for him were meant to throw him off, she was doing that horribly and he could easily counter tha-

   WHAT THE FUCK.

  "Hey, stop that. I don't know you and I'm pretty sure you've threatened to kill me." He said, with a dead tone of voice. "That was my first kiss, too. So apologize for stealing that!"

[vinterens-deactivated20160116]

She did like the thought of a walk, but since she had pretty much just woken up a moment ago, it wasn’t what she was the most interested in doing. Plus it was pretty chilly outside. So her answer might have been a pretty obvious one.

“Watching a movie or something sounds nice,” Freia answered. “We can take a walk in the mountain some other time? I liked the idea, it’s just unfortunately not something I feel like doing right now…” She almost felt like apologizing, since she knew Shine liked doing active things.

“Well, the tv in the lounge has Netflix, so maybe we can find a movie to watch on there?”

[onehitpunch-blog]

   "That's fine, not like the mountains are going anywhere." Shine said, giggling. He didn't really mind not going out on a walk- he was a surprisingly lazy person for someone so much into training. "Are you gonna get dressed or should I get on my PJ's too and make it a party?"

  "Wait, what the hell is 'Netflix'?" He asked after she mentioned that. Was that...like a special T.V? His expression changed from a smile to a very confused one. He felt like he was supposed to know what that was.

snow way out

@onehitpunch

One of the worst adjustments Bianka ever had make when she moved to Foxglove with her mother was adapting to a life of no snow. It wasn’t that often Verdanturf got snow, but she vaguely remembers there being a wintry feel when December rolled in. However, that wasn’t the case when it came to Foxglove. 

Being that the city was an oasis meant that winter was nonexistent. It felt awkward when people decorated their houses with colorful lights and there wouldn’t be a blanket of snow to compliment the colors. What was worse was that people would walk around in t-shirts and shorts. As much as Bianka loved showing a little skin every now and then, it was December. What’s even worse was that her winter collection never got used. 

There had to be a solution to this problem. Luckily for her, there was a place in the Agron region which felt like winter all year around. It was far from Foxglove, and it took her a good seven hours to get there by plane, but it was worth it when she was able to see small white flakes fall from the sky.

Situated at the bottom of the Icelandite Mountains was something a cute, cozy ski lodge. There was something akin to a gated community of cottages for rent, and upon first hearing about this winter wonderland, Bianka was sure to rent a place every year come December.

This year had been no different. 

Well, with the exception of a hiking trip she had been eager to begin. She hadn’t meant to go too far as her only intentions to were get some really great pictures. But the wrong path looked too much alike to the correct path, and now she’s lost.

So terribly lost.

There is literally no one in sight–not a single form of life for miles. At least, that’s what she thinks. Little does she know that, just beyond this one snow bank is a member of the Agron’s Elite Four. 

[onehitpunch-blog]

   “Alright, let’s do 500 hand stand push-ups, now!” He yelled at his team. The Elite Four member had been doing the same exercises as them, and what made it worse was that he wasn’t as fully dressed as someone in a heavily-snowed mountain should. Barely wearing a hoodie and some exercise pants, he seemed to have no problem with the cold. If anything, he considered it a part of the training regimen.

   “Ugg!” He yelled at his Conkeldurr, “I see you doing them faster. Don’t think you’re gonna skip out on me." 

  Shine and his team would always take what time off the League would give them to train, and his favorite spots to get it done were either the Icelandite Mountains, Jasmine Desert or swimming between Esha and Asta. Last weekend he had ran across Jasmine Desert with his team, so he thought maybe the cold would do them good. The only Pokémon of his team that didn’t seem to be training here today though was his Hawlucha, since he didn’t want to expose it to Ice.

   About a half hour later they finished their training for the day and he had a surprise planned for them back at the cabin he rented- a nice hot bath and a large, warm buffet. He withdrew his team into their Pokéballs, leaving Medicham to follow him as he started to make his way back. As he was heading to his cabin, he seemed to be approaching Bianka, waving a greeting.
