"Monsieur Steven..." The sadness in her tone was evident despite of minimal efforts to conceal. "You have done your very best. Know that I am proud to have you fight alongside me as a team..."

“I know we have, but that is what counts now, doesn’t it? Our pokemon have showed their pride and joy in the midst of battle, and I am only proud enough to say that i’m glad you have accompanied me through these last few battles.” He takes her hand and kisses the back of her knuckle. 

“We will keep battling, since this is far from over yet!”

New plaything met here: [X] @ardentblossoms

   He was so amused at the moment by her reaction! She was barely able to speak as she looked at him in fear. Yes, he was going to have fun with this one! The hollow cackled as he played a hand under her chin and forced her head to look up at him. Yellow predatory eyes stared into clear terrified ones. 

“Oh, so you can see me! Does your killer instant have a name? Does prey care to know their predator’s name before they’re devoured?” He asked as he lifted her off the ground by her neck before scooping her body into his arms, positioning her to be carried bridal style away from where they stood.

Battle bonds round three: Vivienne vs. Morty

Watch the battle here!

@battlebonds

Third round- right. He can check on his past challenger later, Morty wasn’t expected to being called in so fast like that!

Perhaps the crowd, had something to do with it. People were cheering and screaming, as soon as Morty stepped onto stage by the third time.

This time however, it was a complete stranger- who was she? He doesn’t recall ever hearing her name anywhere before.

“It is apleasure to meet you, may we give our best into this battle. I am Morty, one of Johto’s gym leader! Let’s not keep our pokemon waiting any longer!”

"I was given to understand that we are paired into the same team. 'Tis a pleasure, monsieur Stone. I look forward to working with you."

“The pleasure is mine, Miss Vivienne.” Kalosian? Well, they were lucky to have a woman of taste and culture on their team! He was very curious as to what kind of pokemon he had under her belt, but the thrill was more-so finding out what she held instead of simply asking. That was the fun of it, after all! 

“I am excited to see what kind of team you have brought for us. My Metagross is whirring with energy, and i’m sure they are looking forward to see us to victory. Until then, let us enjoy the evening! The anticipation can truly make someone quite thirsty.”

Gazes into her eyes. She had the same hair color as hers, and oh, how beautiful was she...

The tournament would begin tomorrow, so Karen found herself wandering the grounds of the battle, Umbreon out and curiously sniffing the grass and dirt they walked on. “It’s been a while since we’ve been at this sort of tournament my sweetheart.” 

They were fond, bitter memories really. Arriving at a place almost like this, being watched by the old Elite Four and the league,  being chosen out of a crowd to be the next member... 

Being in Team Rocket, and doing it all to infiltrate the new league for Giovanni. She sighed hard. When did it all become so complicated? Her life used to be so much easier than this- it was all laid out for her. 

Her reverie was broken by a a sweet face, and blue cold eyes connected with softer dark eyes complete with the same  blue hair. The same hair, she saw in those pictures just the other day. Karen’s heart skipped a beat, her blood boiling in her skin as her brain came to terms with it all.

She was so pretty, so beautiful- a Goddess some people here called her. Maybe even more beautiful than Johto’s pretty girl Whitney and the Mistress of the Dark combined. With that thought, Karen’s stomach twisted tighter and tighter, and her eyes became colder.

“What are you here for.” She didn’t mean for her voice to come out so harshly, but given her current feelings.. nothing else was going to happen.

"Bonjour, monsieur Nate. I was given to understand that we will be competing in this tournament as a team. I look forward to your patronage and guidance..."

“Vivienne, right?” Nate wasn’t exactly familiar with this person, but she definitely sounded Kalosian. This tournament wasn’t exactly a large one either, meaning that only top notch trainers were able to compete. Of course, Nate was feeling confident after he heard that Steven was a part of his team, but this woman was more unknown. She could be amazing, but also could be the weakest link. Only time would tell...

“Nice to meet ya! I think you’ll do great! Plus, ya got me and Steven on a team, and Steven’s really damn good. I actually trained with him a few times a while back. I’d say as long as we work together, we’d be perfectly fine!”

A dragonair hovered about the air space of the Indigo Plateau and a small blue haired blob could be seen jumping off its back. As it became more clear, the cape can be defined as well as the person it belonged: Clair of Blackthorn. The woman seemed to accept the fall, almost as though they were stepping in the air, landing perfectly on her feet. 

Clair may not be attending the battle tournament, but she’s certainly going to spend some time among the people. (And, perhaps, see the effects of this ‘letter’ that was sent to Lance.)
