Special Training

Back on her journey she traveled a great length and got to the trainiing grounds as sson as night was getting there. She figured she'd camp the night and start her training in the morning. She started a fire and made dinner a light one and brought out her pokemon and gave them something to eat. Then she and the others turned in for the night.
Morning broke and the bright light made her wake up and she went towards the entrance of the ground. She went into a building that was big enough to hold a concert in. She opened the door and went in.She saw the bright and obnoxious white walls and linoleum floor. To the right was a desk with a bright and happy redhead with a ponytail drawn back and a white lab coat on. She glided to the desk and asked "Is this where i go to start a training course?" As she looked at the girl with her red eyes looking into the other's bluish hazel ones.

"Yes it is. Could I see your pokemon?"

She obliged the gal and took out her pokeballs that held Water and her brand new one Fur. They sprung out of their pokeballs feeling excited to get some training. They saw what was going on and waited. Sam waited to hear what the gal had to say about her pokemon and if she was able to train.

Sam starts to get anxious cause she had plans to not wait this long for training. She was hoping to go and start building up her team and learning much from her travels. She started to get angry cause of the long wait.. Her pupils turn completely red no white to speak of, cause when she gets angry she ain't pretty. She tried to hold back her fury, but it was faulting a little. She had half a mindto just bag it and go try succeding or failing. it'd be better than standing here and waiting for someone. Water accidentally froze a bowl of plastic food on the desk. it made her laugh and her eyes turned back to their original shape and color. She went back to waiting patiently for the receptionist to get back to her. She hoped that this person would hurry up.

"Sorry for the wait. You can head outside through that door, there you can train." The woman points to a near by door, you thank her and walk towards it.

she gathered up her gear and went to the door to start her training to get ready for the dangers and surprises that awaited her. She opened the door the hinges squiked from a built up of rust and that. "Hey these hinges could use some w-40 on them." As she went out the door. She went for a romp around the training grounds hoping to come across someone or something to challenge to up her pokemon's levels and experience.

You find a large obstical course. Perfect to incress stamina and speed.

"Water! Fur! come on out!" She called as seh threw the pokeballs. Water came out loking heatlhy. So did Fur they wwhere positive about the situtation as well. "Okay you two go through that obstacle course as best as you can."

Water Translate: "Don't worry i'll get this done like a piece of cake"
Fur Translate: "No Weat"

and they both go into action as they make there way through the obstacle course with percision.

Wet quickly jumps over a fence, Fur behind her. Both jump side to side avoiding large pillars shotting out of the ground. The begin climbing up a large rock wall.

Sam watched in excitement seeing them execute big obstacles. Although now they had to finally try and hope stones or swim over this little moat that had some wild pokemon and they had to battle them and succesfully get to the other side without drowning or what not. They did this and the majority of these pokemon where Water which was easy for Water, but it was a little difficult for Fur as being a normal pokemon and most of the mwher low levels of course. They wouldnt of given them anything they couldn't handle of course.

Water Translate: I'm gonna swim it looks like a good day for a dip.
Fur Translate: I'm gonna skip stone thank goodness for balance.

Fur started to cross the rocks that went from one bank to the other with grace enough for two pokemon. While water was swimming and mostly avoiding other pokemon's gazes. A Horsea saw water and thought of battling it Water shot out a jet of Ice that froze the horsea for it being a low-level pokemon. Fur was doing okay as well until he ran into a tentacool that was stretching its legs and it did a wrap on Fur, but got out in time to do a quick attack followed by a tackle that made it out for the count. They got through the little river still in good shape and not knocked out yet.
They continued with their training as Sam dug out two poketreats out of her purse and threw them to Water and Fur and they picked them up and started scarving them down. Now it was a race against fellow pokemon across one side of field to the other. They both rested for a little bit. Then they got ready for a race Fur would be able to do good here, but it wasn't just a race for speed it also required a team effort so he peped up Water and they both got ready to race.

OOC: Hope that isn't unfair Arceus?

Water and Fur charged forward as the race started. Quickly getting to second place, behind a Plusle and Minun.

Water and Fur both did a kind of celebration dance for getting in 2nd place from there team effort. The set off for more training. It seems that they had stumbled on a stone wall that had a rope protruding from it. Once again this task had to do with teamwork to reach the top trumphantly.

Sam saw what was going on with Water and fur as she crossed a bridge that went from one side to another near the wall taht they where to climb up. She'd meet the mther and see how they wher doing in health and that. Meanwhile Water and Fur teamed up again to defeat this rock wall, being wiry not to bump into pokemon that could spring in on them for example flying. A Pidgey and a couple Speerow where nesting not far from the bottom for these species of bird pokemon liked to be up, but not high up like on a side of amountain.
Fur started first to check how good the rope was it kept his weight and felt snug up onthe top and so Water followed suit and started to clim this titan of rock in order to get further in there training to be strong pokemon.

Both of them make it to the top of the wall with ease and both gain a level of exp.

Water and Fur both helped each other up the treacherous rock face Water slipped a little bit down the rope when Fur helped her back up to whee they where at the fist place.they started to continue climbing up the rope. They both had a good time climbing and they both got closer than any pokemon ever had. They finally got to the top of the rock wall with an ease and a little exhausted from the climb, but excited for the job work done.

OOC: I hope u don't mind, but this sounds better than what u had put. Hope u don't mind me going over what u had put.

Wate, Fur and Sam rejoined each othe for the moment and Sam's beautiful red eyes gleamed of the good work of her pokemon and went fo he bag to give them there just rewards. She gave Water one of her favorite pokeblocks and Fur got a poke-treat. The two pokemon rested for a little bit, they slipped into a sleep it was only a few minutes when they had finally awoke and got back to the work. Water and Fu went foward to continue their training

Now that they where nice and ested and ready for what would come in the night. A swarm of Zubats, Golbats and othe night flying pokemon came fluttering out of a distant, but close cave possibly from the cave below them . They didn't know. Until one of the Zubats came wizzing by them sending out supersonic waves to find its way. Sam was a ways away so it didn't affect her that badly, but Waterr and Fur where right in the path of it and tried to block out the screeching sound that was coming from it. Water had a thought that since the thing attacked them they could atttack back so Water let out a blast of Water. While Fur ran at it and jumped trying to add a headbutt to it. Only time would tell if they'd hit it in time or would miss andwaste some vital energy.

OOC: Arceus can u reply to this one and be creative please? Thanks

A zubat avoids furr's attack. The quickly blasts Furr into the wall with a supersonic beam. Waters attack hits but another Zubat comes from the side smashing the pokemon back.

The duo thought they where done for when all of a sudden Fur was creating an energy from itself and started to glow and then a power that was hidden came out of him and hit the zubat. It turned out that the attack was Hidden Power and would present itself and use what was around them they where around rock andground and so it had made a bunch of rocks pick themselves up and throw themselves at the Zubat that was the primary threat at that moment. Fur hoped that one or all of the rocks would hit it and the two of them would be able to like pairing up with each other.
Water saw this weird phenomenon occur and she was amused in wonder so was his owner Sam she didn't know what was going on and knew that fur wan't evolving for it was at its tip evolution and so it had to of been a new attack that had just gotten learned or it had just done it by the spur of the moment. Water kept at it with the other Zubat by using a combination of Water Gun and Hail which turned into a hilstorm so there where rocks adn hail falling and flying round them hoping that this combination would help them win against the two zubats.

OOC: Hope i'm not going over your head mate.

Hidden Power KO's some of the zubats and hailstrom does the same. Water is hit again by a tackle from the last zubat. But gets back onto its feet.

It begins to look bad for the amazing duo when all of a sudden at the sae time Water does Water Gun and Fur runs across the water gun with a Quick Attac hopng to accomplish a double attack, but when fur tried to get onto the water he just fell through and Water helped him by pushing more watr into the water gun. Thus propellng Fur through both aiming there attacks for that last and final Zubat.
Sam waits biting her lower lip and bite so hard that she draws blood and it runs into her throat, but at that moment she didn't know what she was doing, for she was thinking the same thing that they'd be able to get through this experience in one piece.

OOC: Your Turn Arceus

The finally Zubat is KO'd by this attack. And both Water and Fur gain 3 levels from the harsh fight.

OOC: Arceus if you wish o take thi out i won't object to it. Anyways in the game Mudkip usually evolves at Lv. 11.

Fur and Water are looking drained of most of there energy, Sam comes over to give them a look over when all of a sudden she sees Water is glowing and she thought that she was going to lose her best friend. Instead it glowed a bright color and changed in form a radint light that blinde the other two shown from Water. Finally when the brightness and glow was over Water emurged, but No longer a mudkip she had transfromed into a Marshtomp. She pulls out her Pokedex and this is what it had to say.

"

" The surface of MARSHTOMP's body is enveloped by a thin, sticky film that enables it to live on land. This POKEMON plays in mud on beaches when the ocean tide is low.
MARSHTOMP is much faster at traveling through mud than it is at swimming. This POKEMON's hindquarters exhibit obvious development, giving it the ability to walk on just its hind legs.
It is at its best when on muddy ground with poor footing. It quickly overwhelms foes struggling in mud."

She loved her old friend, bu now she loved it even more and saw taht she was wanting to leanrn a move called "Bide, but she already knew fourmoves and could ony know those four important moves. Sam weighs the options of the move. Bide looks like a defensive move at first glance and i think your well rounded in that area. So Water is denied that move and has to wait to learn another later on.

OCC: Its alright! But I could have sworn that it was 15. Sorry!

Finally, after the long battle both you and your pokemon stumble out of the cave tired.

OOC: Maybe it is. If u want i can or u can take it out.

Sam saw that the two where beat and so he went to find a poke center to refresh them. So they find a hous where a kind old lady lives. "Maybe she might let us rest up for a bit and get you guys up to snuff"

Water: Okay that's sounds good (tired voice)
Fur: That sounds like a good idea. (Tired voice)

So they stood at the door and knocked a couple times wondering if there was anyone home.
They waited for an answer.

A old woman opened the door. "Hello, My you all look tired. Come in please!" The woman quickly rushed you into the small home. "Make yourself comfy, I'll get you all something to eat."

:Oh thank you! You don't know how much we've been through." As Sam folows the kind elderly woman through the door and signals for them to follow. which they did and her red eyes surveyed her surrounding as she entered as well as the icy blue of water's and the earthly brown of Fur's. She plopped down onto a fuffy red chair which was comfortable and her pokemon sprawl on the floor from tiredness. They sit in wait for something to help and make them not so famished. The comfortness of the chair makes Sam forget about the room and starts heading in a sleep with her eyelids slowly getting heavier and heavier as so does the pokemon, but they suddenl pop opn when they see the reutrn of the kind old lady returning with a tray of something tenlizing to the senses.

The kind old lady returns. This time with food for Fur and water. She also hands you a plate of nice warm soup. "I thought you guys where hungry, sorry that I don't have anything else."

"That's quite alright we'll eat anything just as long as its good right guys?" She directd the question to Water and Fur who both shook their heads yes. Sam picks up the spoon and takes a spoonful of soup which the heat was eminating through the air and she took a breathe adn blew smoothly on the soup in the spoon to cool it down. The spoon enters her mouth the smell and taste of the wonderful food starts to make her feel so comfortable that she coud stay here for awhile, but they had to get back to the training if they where to beat gym leaders.
Water and Fur both did what they needed t o cool down their food and took a bite of the stuff and it tasted really good. The satisfactory look of it being good shown on their faces. They two liked the aroma of the food and tentalizing smells of the place. They as well started to guess that they'd be there for a while for the aura of the place was calming and relaxing.

The lady smiles. "Feel free to stay the night. I can tell that all of you are tired." She smiled. "Its not best to overwork yourself." The lady snappes her fingers. "I almost forgot. Would you like something to drink? I have, tea, water and hot coco."

"Oh yes please that woud be wonderful! I could go for some Hot Cocoa and i think some ice cold water for my pokemon please!" She said as she looked at the old lady with her eyes thanking her.

Water: I don't mind water i love it
Fur: Hmm.. Water its not that bad

They finshed the soup while the lady was away getting drinks prepred for the trio. She returned holding two bows of cold water and sat it before the two pokemon.

OOC: Hope u don't mindme doing that?

OCC: XD its not a problem.

The lady also brings out some hot coco for you and smiles sitting down on another chair. "So dear mind telling me where your heading? I love hearing storys from other trainers."

Water and Fur slurp at the water feeling good on their tongues and quinching their thrist. Sam sips at the Hot Cocoa bein careful no to burn her tongue. She puts it down on the table in order to tell there tale.

"Well we where training and first off it was a nice smooth workout. Yea know theyjumped over a fence then went across a river one swimming the other skipping rocks. They both got a good battle with low level pokemon with minimal damage to them. Then they climbed a rock wall and we rested on a grassy place and rested, but after taht we got lost in a cave and got attacked by a few zubats which wasn't good for these guys cause they where kinda wasted for energy. Then we thought we'd stop here and rest up and get my pokemon back to good health so we can continue with the training. We are heading back towards Pewter City cause i live in Cerulean so i'm back tracking. At the moment though were geting some training in cause i hear the pokemon in there are hard to beat if you don't have a water pokemon."

She stopped waiting for her story to sink in and took a good amount of Hot Cocoa for she was thirsty and loved Cocoa and Chocolate. She got comfortable in the soft cusiony chair for it was so comfortable taht she could just fall asleep in it.

"What a story, no wonder your pokemon are so tired. You all should stay the nigt. I already have a nice room ready." The kind old lady smiles.

The Hot Cocoa felt good and warm on her tongue it relaxed her. The pokemon liked the water in fact Water was playing with hers by tuning it into ice and eating it piece by piece. Sam paused from drinking the nice warm choclate liquid and its tempting aroma. "Oh Thank you Miss!" She said with excitement aoout having some plac to stay the night and would be able to rest up so they can continue.

She was excited that she wanted to return the favor somehow. She thought as she sipped the liquid finally the cup was empty. She still didn't have any idea of a way to pay her back and the nshe saw that there where some dirty dishes and it struck up an idea. "Please Mam I'd lik to pay you back by washing those dishes in there?"

the lady smiled. "Sure go ahead, I'll go fix up the room you'll sleep in." she smiled and left off into another room.

Sam peeled herself off of the nice soft comfortable chair and went towards the sink and signaled for Water and Fur to follow. "Alright we're going to do a different kind of training and it should be fun!" Se said excitedly. Water moved towards with surprise cause she loved to learn new things. Where as Fur he was moving a little sluggishly for when he was tired it be painful just to get him to do something. Especially after eating a good meal. "Come on Fur stop loungin' around." as she made to make some room in the sink to make some suds to clean the dshes.

Water: "Hmm.. I wonder what knd of training this is?"Fur:"Oh goodie more training can't we just go and rest up already?"

"Now when i wash the dish water i want you to rinse and Fur i want you to dry. it is a fun little game and we get to emphasize on teamwork!" she said gleefully They started to have some fun and being cautious for they where guests and didn't want to break anything. Sam washed and handed it to Water. Where Water would rinse the dish and hand it off to Fur. Finally Fur would dry the dish and set it carefully on the counter space next to tehm.

This cntinued for quite some time not that much though and it got funner and funner each time they'd pass it off. A couple times Fur would put the towel on his tail and use his tail to dry instead of his hands whichby the sight of it was funny. Also Water would shoot some water to the others in fun getting them more wet then possible. "Its a really good thing i brought other clohes Water!" she said while laughing from getting soaed.
Finally they had finished the dishes and was cleaningthe areas around them making sure to get all of the spilled water from their fun. It was pitch black outside when they had gotten dne and they where dead on their feet tired. "Well guys its a good thing we found this place or we'd be camping outside."

The old lady returned from the other room. "your bedroom is ready, there's also a spot for your pokemon to sleep at. Oh I see you finished the dishs, thank you very much!"

"Oh thanks and don't mention it. We had fun doing it anyways right guys?" She said as she was still laughing quietly

Water: Oh definetly!

Fur: Yeah it was good fun.

Sam puts a soaked towel on the edge of the sink and laughs at what water and fur had just said. Her clothes where soaked clean through from thewater fight earlier. "Don't worry i was going to change anyways." She said as she thought what the old lady was going to possibly say about her catching a cold if she stayed in those clothes. (or at least she thought)

Sam went to grab her bag which had clotes and some other supplies for herself and her pokemon of course. Then she had remembered smething that they had forgotten to do. "Sorry i don't believe we've introduced ourselves. My name is Samantha and the blue one is Water and the brownish one is named Fur." As she pointed to herself and then to her pokemon individually as water waved and fur waved his tail at the old lady.

OOC: John is at a Poke Center at the moment so could u go there please thanx. A.K.A Nurse Joy:

"Ah yes, My name is Lorain. Its nice to meet all three of you." Lorain smiles. "Its nice to have guests over. So tell me, how long will all of you stay?"

Sam doesn't take a second to wait to answer. "Might be overnight depends how long it takes for my friends to get better,but yes it's gonna be just the night." She grabs her bag and signals for Water and Fur to follow as they also followed Loraine to the room that they'd be staying for the night. She put down the bag and got out some clothes a pure white shirt and ome dark black sweats. "Excuse me where is your bathroom?" She asks cause nature was beckoning and she also wanted to get changed in there as well.

Lorain smiles. "Its right over there." she said, pointing to a door to the left of the room.

Water and Fur head into the room to wait for Sam to get out of the bathroom. Fur sees a basket on the floor and jmps into it with relieve. "Ahh. Nice comfy I could falls asleep right here." He said as he rolled up in a ball. Water jmps onto the bed on one side of it for she always slept next to Sam cause they where good friends and partners in the way as Pokemon an trainer.

Meanwhile in the bathroom they hear a seat go up and a sound coming from then the top was put down and it made a sound. She turned on the water and washed her hands. Afterwards she takes off the soaked clothes and then throws on her clothes for the night. Making sure that she had done everything that se needed to do. The door opens and she comes out. "Well thanks for showing me where the bathroom. I think i'll see you in the morning?" As she goes to the bed where Water was laying ready for bed.

"Yes, Yes, goodnight Sam." Lorain says leaving, letting you sleep in the comfy bed.

The dynamic trio sleep peacefully with occasional snores from themselves or others. Sam rolls around a little during the night cause of the bed or maybe something else entirely.



While she sleeps a vision starts to unravel in her seep it opens up with herself walking along a shore line with Water, but she is at her top form and is very confdent Fur has grown as well, but there a few others that are famiiar to her, but at the same time not familiar as if she knew what they where but not who they where. They cross a steel metal bridge to a huge city taht has neon ligts and is constantly busy with people.
It looks like the electric city home of the gym that has electric pkemon thriving in the area. She sees many different kinds and some are exotic and some are basic. She walks don the main street of course on the sidewalk for on the street would be somewhat reckless. She sees a barber shop for people and pokemon, A restaurant with tentalising aromas emanating from the depths of the store which reaches her nostrils.



While Water slumbers she gets a dream that is somewhat weird. It was after the world of the humans and there was only pokemon once more and they have to return to how they once where in the past. It had looked like a meteor or buring rocks came from the sky and some of the pokemon escaped by hiding from where it was likely to hit. She was sad for her friend was dead, but she also thought that Sam would want her to live more than die to rejoin her.

==

"mmmm...... FOOD!!" As he is a big room that is just filled with food and drink and comfortable spots to rest. He sits down to it and bites into one, but there is not taste in it. The drink was bland adn tasteless. The only things that where real was the comfy places and th images.

Day;ight breaches the window and Sam awakes from a good night's sleep she sees that Water had been awake for a while which was normal for her, but what wasn't normal was that she was colder than usual. "Girl what's wrong? Why are youso cold you look like you had a nightmare or something?"

Water/Aqua: "Notvery far frm the truth i had one wher every person was dead, but the pokemon that hid and it was a nightmare to me cause you where among the ones that had died and it just scared me to consciousness."
For some reason she was able to make that out and she felt bad for Water for Sam felt bad just by hearing about the dream. She takes her friend to use the bathroom for it looked like they needed some time togethr and also the usual morning routine.

OOC: Sure! XD no problem.

Fur was still sleeping while thegirls where in the bathroom for guys usually sleep at least some do. So they have a chat telling each other their dreams and at the same time getting ready. The water from the shower started and it came through the wall. She and Water both got in for they always did this cause they where such good friends almost sisters.
The water from the shower was seeping into Fur's subconscious and it made him have to um yeah use the bathroom. The girls of course where using it so he slipped out the door and went on a tree which is natural. He came back in relieved and went back into the basket just relaxing there waiting for them to get out so he can find out what they where to do.
About three hours later the came out Sam dressd sporting a black spaghetti strap shirt and matchng black shorts. it was seeming a little warm an it'd probably get worse and so she was being smart about it. Her red hair was pulled back in a straigt ponytail which was easy and kept her hair out of her face as well.
Fur: Well what now?" He ssaid wondering for he didn't know how long they where to stay there. He was a little hungry and breakfat was the most important meal of the day.
Water: She says in her hea "Boys! Do they think of anything else than their stomachs?"

Well we'll have to wait for breakfast if you want some or we can just snack on something if you want. My opinion thouh is to wait cause who knows it could be better than what we have." She says as she packs the other clothes back in the bag.

Lorain walks in a few minutes later. "Ah your all awake. Good. Breakfest is ready if you want some."
