If I can't evade my fate
[attr="class","therivmid"] [attr="class","therivmid1"] This was going to be... different.[break][break] Having done as instructed, Jenna arrived at the outskirts of the Fusube City. Her team was resting back at the Pokemon Center; her belt where their capsules belonged was empty. It left her feeling bare. For a majority of her life, the Ranger had gone without pokemon; but, now that she had adapted to their constant presence, it felt strange to go without them. Slowly crossing her arms over her chest, she tried to ignore the chill. There was a surge of wind that seemed to rise out from the Dragon's Den–it was colder than the air outside, hinting that the dark depths stretched far into the Earth.[break][break] “Shoulda brought a jacket.” Jenna murmured, staring into the open mouth of the cave. The Gym Leader would arrive soon to escort her inside. From what she had been told, she'd hear him before she'd see him... but what the heck was that supposed to mean?[break][break] Knowing that she'd soon find out, the Ranger decided to stop glancing at her phone. The longer she stared at the clock, the longer the wait would be.[break][break] Most trainers were enthralled at the prospect of catching their own dragon. Jenna was more reserved. She was cautiously optimistic. If she were to fail the “trail,” then it'd be best to not get her hopes up. Even if she did succeed, raising a Dragon to full maturity was one of the hardest challenges for a trainer to endure–experienced or not. Coming here was accepting a huge responsibility.[break][break] How the heck was she supposed to earn a Dragon's trust, anyway? What would a young Dragon want? When Jenna had caught her Noibat, all she had to do was offer the moocher some sliced fruit and he was like putty in her hands. Noibats were an exception–she knew that–but what else could she have to offer to a dragon when it came up to her? A chance to travel? Battling? Affection?[break][break] The longer she thought about it, the more confused she became.[break][break][break] PHARAOH LEAP CREATES [googlefont=Roboto:400,700] [googlefont=Montserrat:300,700] [googlefont=Raleway:300,400,800] [newclass=.theriv]width:535px;background-color:#f7f7f7;text-align:justify;color:#444444;letter-spacing:0px;[/newclass] [newclass=.therivtop]border-left:solid 35px #444444;[/newclass] [newclass=.therivtop1]border:solid 1px #e3e3e3;border-left:none;padding:39px;[/newclass] [newclass=.therivimg]height:100px;width:100px;padding:14px;background-color:#f3f3f3;border:solid 1px #e3e3e3;border-radius:100%;[/newclass] [newclass=.therivimg img]height:100px;width:100px;border-radius:100%;[/newclass] [newclass=.therivlyric]font:25px Montserrat;line-height:20px;padding-bottom:12px;white-space:nowrap;letter-spacing:-2px;color:#444444;padding-top:10px;text-shadow:1px 1px 0px #ffffff, 1px 0px 0px #ffffff, 0px 1px 0px #ffffff, -1px 0px 0px #ffffff, 0px -1px 0px #ffffff, -1px 1px 0px #ffffff, 1px -1px 0px #ffffff, -1px -1px 0px #ffffff;[/newclass] [newclass=.therivnotes]max-height:28px;overflow:auto;padding-right:9px;text-align:justify;color:#bbbbbb;font:12px raleway;text-shadow:1px 1px 0px #ffffff, 1px 0px 0px #ffffff, 0px 1px 0px #ffffff, -1px 0px 0px #ffffff, 0px -1px 0px #ffffff, -1px 1px 0px #ffffff, 1px -1px 0px #ffffff, -1px -1px 0px #ffffff;[/newclass] [newclass=.therivnotes::-webkit-scrollbar]width:1px;background-color:#f7f7f7!important;border:none!important;border-radius:0px;[/newclass] [newclass=.therivnotes::-webkit-scrollbar-thumb]background-color:#e3e3e3!important;border:none!important;border-radius:0px;[/newclass] [newclass=.therivnotes div]font:bold 15px Raleway;text-transform:uppercase;margin:0px 15px 0px 0px;float:left;color:#506276;line-height:28px;[/newclass] [newclass=.therivtop2]font:bold 7px Raleway;line-height:7px;letter-spacing:1px;text-transform:uppercase;font-weight:800!important;padding-top:12px;[/newclass] [newclass=.therivtop2 b, .therivtop2 a]font:bold 7px Raleway;line-height:7px;color:#506276!important;font-weight:800!important;[/newclass] [newclass=.therivlyric2]border-right:solid 1px #e3e3e3;border-bottom:solid 1px #e3e3e3;background-color:#f3f3f3;padding:39px 0px;text-align:center;font:37px Montserrat;line-height:30px;text-shadow:1px 1px 0px #ffffff, 1px 0px 0px #ffffff, 0px 1px 0px #ffffff, -1px 0px 0px #ffffff, 0px -1px 0px #ffffff, -1px 1px 0px #ffffff, 1px -1px 0px #ffffff, -1px -1px 0px #ffffff;color:#999999;font-style:italic;[/newclass] [newclass=.therivlyric2 i]color:#506276;[/newclass] [newclass=.therivmidd]border-left:solid 35px #506276;[/newclass] [newclass=.therivmid]border-left:solid 35px #e3e3e3;[/newclass] [newclass=.therivmid1]border:solid 1px #e3e3e3;border-left:none;border-top:none;padding:49px;font:10px Verdana;[/newclass] [newclass=.therivmid1 font]font:bold 11px Roboto;color:#506276;[/newclass] [newclass=.therivmid1 b]font:bold 11px Roboto;color:#999999;[/newclass] [newclass=.therivmid1 i]font:11px Roboto;font-style:italic;[/newclass]

[attr="class","dfbase"] [attr="class","dftop"] [attr="class","dficon"] [attr="class","dfboxbase"] shark in the water [attr="class","dfbox"] for today's wear this would be the first time mateo having seen his leader adorning the ceremonial garb. mateo, grinning with glee, wore the following clothing: a black robe called a koromo , which is a type of osode, where, over it, he, too, wore a purple sash above the koromo. the sash itself could be seen wrapped around his body and over his left shoulder, which is called a kesa. following for footwear he would also adorn upon his feet a pair of waraji sandals. on his left hand one could see that mateo, too, wore what looked to have been a flap of cloth over the left palm and the back of his hand, secured by a ring over his middle finger, and a piece of heavier material wrapped once around his forearm and tied on the underside of his arm; this is known as a tekkou. to tie the ceremonial clothing together. one would notice that, around his left palm, is a ring of prayer beads.
emerging from the cave. he'd come to see that the person who scheduled a visit to enter the dragon's den to test their bond was, "hooh, a cutie!?" nostrils flared with steam as the guardian emerged. the bridge of his nose red as a tomato. he'd speed walk over to welcome the newcomer. "welcome to the d-d-d-dragon den!?" in his mind he couldn't stop thinking how much of a cutie the bunheaded female happened to be. "p-please come in, here's your dragonba--i mean pokeball!?" reaching into his sleeve to give the blunette a single ball capsule. he'd begin to venture forward into the cave.
"man did she smell good, idjit!", he thought to himself. once inside the cave. they'd come to a halt. beyond their positioning, the cavern, during their walk before their halt, had been lit by a blue sphere of light on both their right and left sides. when each step was taken further into the cavern, it was during their halt that they'd, also, come to reach a lake that led even further into a deeper part of the cavern. there were several entrances surrounding them. the largest hole was the one in which they came out of that led back to the entrance of the cave. but the many other entrances surrounding their sides led into deeper, and different parts, of the dragon den.
upon first look the lake would illuminate a radiant glow. thanks to the light from the sphere's attached to the walls, it was caused those said light's to refract within the lake. glistening in a hue of blue light, before them resided a boat where one had the choice to either use the ferry to row themselves deeper, which was where the shrine laid further in. or merely walk upon the sides or through another hole of the cavern. though they wouldn't be taking either roads that led further into the den at this time. instead, he'd simply extend the right palm of his hand to one side and his other to another. "alright, miss jenna. you just wait here and a pokemon with the essence of a dragon should begin making their way toward you. y-you don't have to do anything else." mateo softly explained. thus he'd move back to place himself upon the wall, awaiting for a dragon to show while admiring the woman with the expression of a love-struck dolt.

[nospaces] [attr="class","Vgentempbox"] [attr="class","Vgentemptitle"]A wild pokemon appeared [attr="class","Vgentempdiv"]As the blunette remained in place. It wasn't until, before her, the ground at her feet began to crumble. Something strange and colored orange came to stick out of the ground. Finally, without a moment's notice, a Trapinch's head plopped from the earth's surface in front of the blunette! The Pokemon, confused, stared at the blunette with a tilted head and confused gaze.

If I can't evade my fate
[attr="class","therivmid"] [attr="class","therivmid1"] Did... Did he know he just said that out loud?[break][break] Jenna leaned back on the ball of her heel as the gym leader quickly approached. It was an attempt to keep a professional distance from the Gym Leader It was nice to get a compliment, but the hasty approach had made her forget what she had planned on saying; her prepared response was forgotten. Which sucked, because she had wanted to look prepared for the trial that awaited her. It took her a second to recall that she could speak and standing around would just amplifying the awkwardness. “Dragonballs?! O-of course?!” She blurted out, taking the pokeball very quickly from his hands–and dropped it in her rush.[break][break] The Ranger could have kicked herself as she bowed to pick up the ball. There went her chances of looking professional.[break][break] Stepping into the depths of the caverns, the girl followed behind the formally dressed gym leader. On occasion, she'd let her eyes drift to the orbs of light that illuminated their path. It was... pretty.[break][break] Her eyes drifted forward, reminding herself that she should just act like... herself. Let the right dragon come to her. It couldn't be forced. She owned dragons of her own. Had it felt so crushing when she had befriended them? No, of course not. It had been natural.[break][break] And that was what she was going to do here.[break][break] The lake caught her attention. As Mateo speak, she found her gaze shifting between him and the radiant body of water. Despite this distraction, she had paid attention to what he had said. “Just gotta stand around, huh?” Sounded easy enough.[break][break] She took one step forward and waited.[break][break] It didn't take long to get a response–it was almost immediate. “Oh, that fast?” She blurted out in surprise as a Trapinch popped up from the ground a few feet ahead of her. “I didn't even get a chance to think about what I–”[break][break] And it burrowed away. Immediately.[break][break] “...Never...mind.” Was that a false positive?[break][break][break] PHARAOH LEAP CREATES [googlefont=Roboto:400,700] [googlefont=Montserrat:300,700] [googlefont=Raleway:300,400,800] [newclass=.theriv]width:535px;background-color:#f7f7f7;text-align:justify;color:#444444;letter-spacing:0px;[/newclass] [newclass=.therivtop]border-left:solid 35px #444444;[/newclass] [newclass=.therivtop1]border:solid 1px #e3e3e3;border-left:none;padding:39px;[/newclass] [newclass=.therivimg]height:100px;width:100px;padding:14px;background-color:#f3f3f3;border:solid 1px #e3e3e3;border-radius:100%;[/newclass] [newclass=.therivimg img]height:100px;width:100px;border-radius:100%;[/newclass] [newclass=.therivlyric]font:25px Montserrat;line-height:20px;padding-bottom:12px;white-space:nowrap;letter-spacing:-2px;color:#444444;padding-top:10px;text-shadow:1px 1px 0px #ffffff, 1px 0px 0px #ffffff, 0px 1px 0px #ffffff, -1px 0px 0px #ffffff, 0px -1px 0px #ffffff, -1px 1px 0px #ffffff, 1px -1px 0px #ffffff, -1px -1px 0px #ffffff;[/newclass] [newclass=.therivnotes]max-height:28px;overflow:auto;padding-right:9px;text-align:justify;color:#bbbbbb;font:12px raleway;text-shadow:1px 1px 0px #ffffff, 1px 0px 0px #ffffff, 0px 1px 0px #ffffff, -1px 0px 0px #ffffff, 0px -1px 0px #ffffff, -1px 1px 0px #ffffff, 1px -1px 0px #ffffff, -1px -1px 0px #ffffff;[/newclass] [newclass=.therivnotes::-webkit-scrollbar]width:1px;background-color:#f7f7f7!important;border:none!important;border-radius:0px;[/newclass] [newclass=.therivnotes::-webkit-scrollbar-thumb]background-color:#e3e3e3!important;border:none!important;border-radius:0px;[/newclass] [newclass=.therivnotes div]font:bold 15px Raleway;text-transform:uppercase;margin:0px 15px 0px 0px;float:left;color:#506276;line-height:28px;[/newclass] [newclass=.therivtop2]font:bold 7px Raleway;line-height:7px;letter-spacing:1px;text-transform:uppercase;font-weight:800!important;padding-top:12px;[/newclass] [newclass=.therivtop2 b, .therivtop2 a]font:bold 7px Raleway;line-height:7px;color:#506276!important;font-weight:800!important;[/newclass] [newclass=.therivlyric2]border-right:solid 1px #e3e3e3;border-bottom:solid 1px #e3e3e3;background-color:#f3f3f3;padding:39px 0px;text-align:center;font:37px Montserrat;line-height:30px;text-shadow:1px 1px 0px #ffffff, 1px 0px 0px #ffffff, 0px 1px 0px #ffffff, -1px 0px 0px #ffffff, 0px -1px 0px #ffffff, -1px 1px 0px #ffffff, 1px -1px 0px #ffffff, -1px -1px 0px #ffffff;color:#999999;font-style:italic;[/newclass] [newclass=.therivlyric2 i]color:#506276;[/newclass] [newclass=.therivmidd]border-left:solid 35px #506276;[/newclass] [newclass=.therivmid]border-left:solid 35px #e3e3e3;[/newclass] [newclass=.therivmid1]border:solid 1px #e3e3e3;border-left:none;border-top:none;padding:49px;font:10px Verdana;[/newclass] [newclass=.therivmid1 font]font:bold 11px Roboto;color:#506276;[/newclass] [newclass=.therivmid1 b]font:bold 11px Roboto;color:#999999;[/newclass] [newclass=.therivmid1 i]font:11px Roboto;font-style:italic;[/newclass]

[nospaces] [attr="class","Vgentempbox"] [attr="class","Vgentemptitle"]A wild pokemon appeared [attr="class","Vgentempdiv"]Slithering underneath the blunette who looked to have been a newcomer of the den. A Dratini, underneath the girl, looked up with a stare of curiosity. The girl smelled strange, unfavorable to say the least. The Dratini, slithering in front of the blunette, then, bowed its head with grace. Knowing that before her stood a new human for the trial. For the Dratini to have ran into the young woman meant that she, the Dratini, too, would have to see if their bond was compatible. The trial had now begun. Dratini slithered in front of the girl, awaiting to see what the girl's first words were to be.

If I can't evade my fate
[attr="class","therivmid"] [attr="class","therivmid1"] First impressions were important.[break][break] Jenna tried to keep that in mind. As the small Dratini slithered toward her, the Ranger had to refrain from speaking without care. The previous rejection had been forgotten–this was the Dragon that had been tempted by her... aura? Some mystical bullshit? Whatever it was, she knew it was important. If the Dragon deemed they were compatible, they could leave the cave together. Her eyes scoured the creature, noting the soft gleam of the Dratini scales and the curious look fixed upon its gentle features.[break][break] The serpent bowed. Jenna dipped her head to return the gesture, one of her hands slowly raised before the small dragon so she could familiarize herself with the new scent. The moment the Dratini flared her nostrils, Jenna sensed that she did not like what she had smelled. The Ranger smelled of wet earth–the same scent that lingered in a valley when rains had passed.[break][break] “You've been down here your whole life, huh?” The girl asked, speaking gently to the pair of purple eyes that had focused on her. The Dratini almost looked... fragile. She was as clean and pristine as a porcelain doll. She looked like she belonged on a shelf, not down in a cave or outside where the world could beat down on her. A pokemon so pretty needed to be preserved–that was what the Ranger could imagine people saying. [break][break] Jenna became aware of the contrast that existed between the two of them. “Not everything on the surface is pleasant. I know I brought some of that down here with me.” Her hand twisted, palm flushed, as she exposed the stain that had sunken into her sleeve. Mud. The sight was not repugnant to the Ranger, but it must have been what the Dragon had smelt. “There are sights and smells that I'm sure you'd be repelled by. You could spend your entire life down in these caves and never have to experience any of that ugliness–this place is beautiful. I could spend plenty of time admiring it. It matches you.” She spared a small smile. It was an honest compliment, not an attempt to earn favor.[break][break] Jenna cleared her throat, hand returning to her side. “But this isn't the only beautiful place in the world.” Her mind is focused. The anxieties from earlier were gone. If she had misjudged the creature, that was a mistake she'd be willing to make. [break][break] “And beautiful things sometimes outgrow the places where they have been planted.” Another pause. Jenna was watching the Dragon carefully. “It's natural... and I can say with certainty that overcoming those challenges can make something beautiful all the better. People admire flowers that can grow in the strangest of places–not because of what they are, but because they are able to thrive no matter the circumstances.”[break][break] Beauty felt no pain, or so she had been told. “Why not experience that with someone who can keep some of the pungency at bay? Someone that can show you the sights and smells that are worth seeing? Someone that can help you grow into the pokemon that you want to become?”[break][break] And if that pitch didn't work... “I know how to polish scales, too.”[break][break][break] PHARAOH LEAP CREATES [googlefont=Roboto:400,700] [googlefont=Montserrat:300,700] [googlefont=Raleway:300,400,800] [newclass=.theriv]width:535px;background-color:#f7f7f7;text-align:justify;color:#444444;letter-spacing:0px;[/newclass] [newclass=.therivtop]border-left:solid 35px #444444;[/newclass] [newclass=.therivtop1]border:solid 1px #e3e3e3;border-left:none;padding:39px;[/newclass] [newclass=.therivimg]height:100px;width:100px;padding:14px;background-color:#f3f3f3;border:solid 1px #e3e3e3;border-radius:100%;[/newclass] [newclass=.therivimg img]height:100px;width:100px;border-radius:100%;[/newclass] [newclass=.therivlyric]font:25px Montserrat;line-height:20px;padding-bottom:12px;white-space:nowrap;letter-spacing:-2px;color:#444444;padding-top:10px;text-shadow:1px 1px 0px #ffffff, 1px 0px 0px #ffffff, 0px 1px 0px #ffffff, -1px 0px 0px #ffffff, 0px -1px 0px #ffffff, -1px 1px 0px #ffffff, 1px -1px 0px #ffffff, -1px -1px 0px #ffffff;[/newclass] [newclass=.therivnotes]max-height:28px;overflow:auto;padding-right:9px;text-align:justify;color:#bbbbbb;font:12px raleway;text-shadow:1px 1px 0px #ffffff, 1px 0px 0px #ffffff, 0px 1px 0px #ffffff, -1px 0px 0px #ffffff, 0px -1px 0px #ffffff, -1px 1px 0px #ffffff, 1px -1px 0px #ffffff, -1px -1px 0px #ffffff;[/newclass] [newclass=.therivnotes::-webkit-scrollbar]width:1px;background-color:#f7f7f7!important;border:none!important;border-radius:0px;[/newclass] [newclass=.therivnotes::-webkit-scrollbar-thumb]background-color:#e3e3e3!important;border:none!important;border-radius:0px;[/newclass] [newclass=.therivnotes div]font:bold 15px Raleway;text-transform:uppercase;margin:0px 15px 0px 0px;float:left;color:#506276;line-height:28px;[/newclass] [newclass=.therivtop2]font:bold 7px Raleway;line-height:7px;letter-spacing:1px;text-transform:uppercase;font-weight:800!important;padding-top:12px;[/newclass] [newclass=.therivtop2 b, .therivtop2 a]font:bold 7px Raleway;line-height:7px;color:#506276!important;font-weight:800!important;[/newclass] [newclass=.therivlyric2]border-right:solid 1px #e3e3e3;border-bottom:solid 1px #e3e3e3;background-color:#f3f3f3;padding:39px 0px;text-align:center;font:37px Montserrat;line-height:30px;text-shadow:1px 1px 0px #ffffff, 1px 0px 0px #ffffff, 0px 1px 0px #ffffff, -1px 0px 0px #ffffff, 0px -1px 0px #ffffff, -1px 1px 0px #ffffff, 1px -1px 0px #ffffff, -1px -1px 0px #ffffff;color:#999999;font-style:italic;[/newclass] [newclass=.therivlyric2 i]color:#506276;[/newclass] [newclass=.therivmidd]border-left:solid 35px #506276;[/newclass] [newclass=.therivmid]border-left:solid 35px #e3e3e3;[/newclass] [newclass=.therivmid1]border:solid 1px #e3e3e3;border-left:none;border-top:none;padding:49px;font:10px Verdana;[/newclass] [newclass=.therivmid1 font]font:bold 11px Roboto;color:#506276;[/newclass] [newclass=.therivmid1 b]font:bold 11px Roboto;color:#999999;[/newclass] [newclass=.therivmid1 i]font:11px Roboto;font-style:italic;[/newclass]

[attr="class","dfbase"] [attr="class","dftop"] [attr="class","dficon"] [attr="class","dfboxbase"] shark in the water [attr="class","dfbox"] What a fool, is what the Dratini thought the girl to be. Anyone can grace a being of her caliber with mere compliments and pretty words. The girl lacked graced, sure. She lacked beauty, that's quite alright. But the one thing that she could never enjoy about a trainer was their lack of confidence. She could smell it upon the girl, her words. Disgusting, a woman should carry her head and let those of opposite species and sex know that they will, and shall, bow down before her. She did not have the confidence nor grace to do nor act in such a way.
"Ah? Oooh, I know that Dratini." A fist slammed downward into the palm of his hand as if having discovered something. "That's Lady Sakura!" Not much was known to the outsider as to whom the Dratini had been known as. But it wasn't his place to divulge information at this time. The focus was on whether she could actually woo Dratini or not, and right now it didn't seem as though she garnered much of an interest from the Dratini. Mateo wondered if the beauty would be okay. "Ah well, doesn't matter right now. She doesn't seem to be winning her over," he said aloud to himself.
The Dratini, though at first uninterested, caught whiff of the woman's words that she possessed skills in polishing scales?! "Oh?" A sudden change in Dratini's expression was shown for no more thirty seconds. Her head shifting to the side for she did not want to give in. How unrefined, to use such cheap tactics against me, the Dratini thought to herself. She wasn't going to be swayed so easily. No, this was a battle to test the woman's determination. Her confidence, did she have what it took?! Come forth you unrefined wench.

If I can't evade my fate
[attr="class","therivmid"] [attr="class","therivmid1"] The “unrefined wench” was not deterred by failure.[break][break] Jenna stared at the small Dratini as she seemed to reject her suggestions; Lady Sakura would not be easily impressed, huh? Then why did she seem to falter at the suggestion of polished scales? The blue-haired Ranger pondered what would be best to say next. She had seen the chink in the Dragon's armor. It would be best to exploit it, but how? What else would the Dragon want?[break][break] Maybe her approach had been too gentle? “You think a little rejection is going to make me turn tail and leave?” The Ranger asked, voice suddenly stronger than it was before. “That'd be pathetic.” Jenna may be soft, but there was something beneath those cushy layers. She'd been through her own hell and come back from it. The Ranger realized it'd be time to let the Dragon see a slice of it.[break][break] “A majority of the trainers that come down from the surface won't be able to please you. They'll just waste your time and get frustrated when they realize you won't do everything they want. Would you want to humor their every advance? Of course not.” The girl brushed the dirt from her knees as she stood upright, knowing she was right. Trainers were often ignorant of the needs and wants of their pokemon; dragon or not. Even if another trainer possessed the traits that Lady Sakura desired, there would be a chance that the person was equally oblivious. They may fail to meet her needs.[break][break] Jenna huffed a heavy breath, “but I wouldn't be like that. I'm not foolish nor do I give up so easily. I'm confident that I have what it takes. I know I can work with you and make the world green with envy. I'm not perfect, but at least I know my flaws and how to set them aside. Will others have that same awareness?” The trial must have placed them together for a reason. Lady Sakura had come to her, after all. There must have been a chance for success. Jenna was going to seize it. “I know they won't. I'm confident they won't. They don't deserve the chance.”[break][break] The Ranger took one small step back, giving the Dragon a proper bow. “Come with me.” It was now or never.[break][break][break] PHARAOH LEAP CREATES [googlefont=Roboto:400,700] [googlefont=Montserrat:300,700] [googlefont=Raleway:300,400,800] [newclass=.theriv]width:535px;background-color:#f7f7f7;text-align:justify;color:#444444;letter-spacing:0px;[/newclass] [newclass=.therivtop]border-left:solid 35px #444444;[/newclass] [newclass=.therivtop1]border:solid 1px #e3e3e3;border-left:none;padding:39px;[/newclass] [newclass=.therivimg]height:100px;width:100px;padding:14px;background-color:#f3f3f3;border:solid 1px #e3e3e3;border-radius:100%;[/newclass] [newclass=.therivimg img]height:100px;width:100px;border-radius:100%;[/newclass] [newclass=.therivlyric]font:25px Montserrat;line-height:20px;padding-bottom:12px;white-space:nowrap;letter-spacing:-2px;color:#444444;padding-top:10px;text-shadow:1px 1px 0px #ffffff, 1px 0px 0px #ffffff, 0px 1px 0px #ffffff, -1px 0px 0px #ffffff, 0px -1px 0px #ffffff, -1px 1px 0px #ffffff, 1px -1px 0px #ffffff, -1px -1px 0px #ffffff;[/newclass] [newclass=.therivnotes]max-height:28px;overflow:auto;padding-right:9px;text-align:justify;color:#bbbbbb;font:12px raleway;text-shadow:1px 1px 0px #ffffff, 1px 0px 0px #ffffff, 0px 1px 0px #ffffff, -1px 0px 0px #ffffff, 0px -1px 0px #ffffff, -1px 1px 0px #ffffff, 1px -1px 0px #ffffff, -1px -1px 0px #ffffff;[/newclass] [newclass=.therivnotes::-webkit-scrollbar]width:1px;background-color:#f7f7f7!important;border:none!important;border-radius:0px;[/newclass] [newclass=.therivnotes::-webkit-scrollbar-thumb]background-color:#e3e3e3!important;border:none!important;border-radius:0px;[/newclass] [newclass=.therivnotes div]font:bold 15px Raleway;text-transform:uppercase;margin:0px 15px 0px 0px;float:left;color:#506276;line-height:28px;[/newclass] [newclass=.therivtop2]font:bold 7px Raleway;line-height:7px;letter-spacing:1px;text-transform:uppercase;font-weight:800!important;padding-top:12px;[/newclass] [newclass=.therivtop2 b, .therivtop2 a]font:bold 7px Raleway;line-height:7px;color:#506276!important;font-weight:800!important;[/newclass] [newclass=.therivlyric2]border-right:solid 1px #e3e3e3;border-bottom:solid 1px #e3e3e3;background-color:#f3f3f3;padding:39px 0px;text-align:center;font:37px Montserrat;line-height:30px;text-shadow:1px 1px 0px #ffffff, 1px 0px 0px #ffffff, 0px 1px 0px #ffffff, -1px 0px 0px #ffffff, 0px -1px 0px #ffffff, -1px 1px 0px #ffffff, 1px -1px 0px #ffffff, -1px -1px 0px #ffffff;color:#999999;font-style:italic;[/newclass] [newclass=.therivlyric2 i]color:#506276;[/newclass] [newclass=.therivmidd]border-left:solid 35px #506276;[/newclass] [newclass=.therivmid]border-left:solid 35px #e3e3e3;[/newclass] [newclass=.therivmid1]border:solid 1px #e3e3e3;border-left:none;border-top:none;padding:49px;font:10px Verdana;[/newclass] [newclass=.therivmid1 font]font:bold 11px Roboto;color:#506276;[/newclass] [newclass=.therivmid1 b]font:bold 11px Roboto;color:#999999;[/newclass] [newclass=.therivmid1 i]font:11px Roboto;font-style:italic;[/newclass]

[attr="class","dfbase"] [attr="class","dftop"] [attr="class","dficon"] [attr="class","dfboxbase"] shark in the water [attr="class","dfbox"] oh dear, something changed just then. though the girl's look was one that lacked in confidence behind words. that suddenly changed with the determination she showed before the dratini. yes, this was the trainer she desired. this was the trainer she wanted to work alongside. if she were going to turn into a luxurious dragonair, she needed a trainer with the potential unlock the hidden power inside of dratini. lady sakura was quite pleased, and this was the perfect trainer to become her owner--no, trainer is such a disgusting, crude, and inelegant word--better yet, let's go with partner. the woman may not have had the looks and ladylike quality she wanted in a partner, but that was something they can work on in the future. "lady sa--..." she began to slither her way toward the now bowed trainer, placing her tail upon the blunette's head and wanting her to raise both her head and body. if only she were capable of human communication, she could understand the words spoken from the calling of her name. "oh? lady sakura said, 'never raise your head to another woman, especiall in front a man.' or something along those lines, right, idjit?" a shocked dratini turned directly toward mateo who'd spoke the words she exactly stated. "oh yeah, i can speak the tongue of dragons. a technique passed down from guardian to guardian. it's pretty cool, but i can only speak and understand pokemon of the dragon species. nothing more, nothing less sadly." a shrug of his shoulders. it was a shame indeed since he can never understand what the hell his future dragon-type, currently normal, eevee was saying. "but yeah, it seems she accepts you. so if i were you i'd put her in the ball quickly before she changed her mind." and once that was all over. mateo, watching with the look of a sh child hiding behind the color of his coat-like shirt. shoulders shimmied in place for he had a question to ask the blunette known as jenna. "s-s-s-so, now that you've obtained a dragon, i have some items to give you. though before i do that...i-i was wondering..." mateo began twisting the tip of his right toe into the surface of the den, his left foot being used as a pillar to keep his body upheld. "w-w-would you, maybe, i dunno...wanna go on a date, i-idjit?"

Jenna's speech had been a success. Somehow, her words had managed to connect to Lady Sakura, inspiring the dragon to accept the young Ranger as her trainer; a result that the girl had not been expecting. The weight of failure seemed to dissipate from her shoulders, allowing Jenna to release a content sigh.[break][break]
Following the Gym leader's advice, she allowed Sakura to return to the comforts of her new pokeball. The Dratini faded away, engulfed by the red light that transported her into the capsule... and Jenna felt her eyes linger on its polished surface, knowing the young Dragon would be warm and safe while kept inside. She no longer had to fear failing to capture the dragon, but now she had to fear failing her. An anxious energy had manifested. Accepting new pokemon was the same as making a promise. Jenna would have to live up to it.[break][break]
She'd do her best.[break][break]
Standing upright, Jenna placed the newly occupied pokeball onto her belt. It snapped comfortably into place, looking as if it had always been there; as if it had always belonged. “Hm?” Her attention resurfaced when Mateo began to speak. She turned her head, letting her soft purple gaze fixate on the man and his... nervous gestures. As he screwed the tip of his shoe into the ground, grinding the dirt, she could anticipate what was coming.[break][break]
“I... don't come to Fusube often,” She confessed, admiring his boldness while simultaneously pondering his vocal tick. Jenna could humor the request. It wouldn't cause any harm; yet, she felt hesitant to give someone false hope. Why go on a date when she had no intentions of dating anyone? It would be cruel, wouldn't it?[break][break]
It was only a date.[break][break]
The girl hummed to herself, seeming to debate her options. “If I do swing around... maybe we could go get a coffee? Lunch?” She caved. One hand rubbed the back of her neck as she averted her eyes. This was embarrassing. “I imagine this one would want to talk with someone that speaks her language,” Her hand gestured to the pokeball and the resident it carried. “Just... try to not get your hopes up.”[break][break]
Might as well live every once and awhile, right?
