Unfit (OPEN)

[WHITE]

"You're doing good today, Jess." White mentioned as she led the Sawsbuck on across the path. Jessica, who had broken one of her front legs on White's last shoot, was following behind, the pain evident in her facial features. White said she was doing well, but she wasn't too sure herself. The nurse had told her it was about time for White to stop letting Jessica nurse the leg, but it was pretty hard for White to watch the Pokemon struggle like this.

"Amanda, come on out!" She called releasing the large serpentine Pokemon from her Pokeball. Amanda looked from White, to Jessica, a look of Sympathy crossing her face when she saw Jessica's condition. She still didn't agree with White's job, and this was probably one of the reasons why. But, at the same time, she knew White hadn't meant for Jessica's leg to break.Maybe it was those horrible terms like 'Break a leg' that humans always used.

"Amanda, can you stay beside Jessica just in case something happens?" She asked. The last thing she wanted was for Jessica to fall over. Amanda slithered over to Jessica's side, following the deer as White again coaxed her into a walk. White was nervous. She had never once had to tend to an injury like a broken foot, so this was new to her.

"Just a little more Jessica, little more..." she said, trying to keep her own cool as the deer kept up her pained expression. Amanda could tell that Jessica was really suffering, and it proved right as Jessica's leg gave in and she was only saved from a tumble to the ground by Amanda curling around her. "Jess!" White cried, running forward until she could lean down by the fallen deer. She ran a hand through the Sawsbuck's fur as Amanda gently uncurled herself from the Sawsbuck, to sit at White's side.

"I'm so sorry Jess, I should have never let them use you for that last shoot." She apologized, placing her bag down and digging through it for an icepack. She should have never listened to that stupid nurse.

OOC: Post was recycled cause the thread never actually started but feel free to jump in.

[BLACK]

OOC: I might as well.

Black had his hands shoved deep into his pockets as he walked down the dirt path. Bo walked behind him, ready to take on any forest dwellers who dared to attack. He'd been making a run through Sinnoh to see how everything was doing compared to Unova. The cities were getting rebuilt and everything was returning to some level of normalcy. So normal, in fact, that Black had overheard a conversation about people from the BW Agency filming in the next town over. His interest peaked there as he was sure White would be with them and he hadn't seen his friend in a while. So the next day, Black set off to go find her. 

"How do you think she's been, Bo?" Black asked his Pokémon as they walked. The Emboar grunted in response and now the trainer wished he could understand Pokémon language like N. Bo could be saying anything, even a fire warning, and Black wouldn't know it.. He sighed, "I have no idea what I expected from asking you..."

The young man lifted his cap off of his head and ran his fingers through his brown hair. He wondered how White had been in the time they hadn't seen each other. His thoughts trailed back to the time they adventured around Unova together. A sudden shout from down the trail brought him back to his senses. The voice sounded familiar and it took a minute for Black to recognize it.

"White!" he shouted when the voice finally matched a face in his head. He took off running to where the shout had come from, with Bo somehow keeping up on his stubbier legs. The young man ran until he reached the source of the shout. He saw White leaning over Jessica and digging through her bag. Amanda sat on the ground next to her. Black could tell that Jessica was is some sort of pain just by looking at her. 

"White," Black called again. He jogged up next to her to better view the situation, "what happened? I heard you shouting, so I thought you were in some sort of trouble. Is Jessica hurt?"

[WHITE]

White hadn't been paying attention, because if she had, she would have heard Black calling for her. But she was wrapped up. Just the mere fact that she could allow Jessica to be hurt this badly, was a sign she was doing something extremely wrong as a trainer. She was frowning deeply as she moved her hand gently over Jessica's side, using the other one to sift through her bag. But the sifting soon stopped. Just what was she looking for? It was a sprained limb, there wasn't much that outside lotions were going to do for it. Finally, she noticed him, and she let a surprised gasp pass her lips.

"Oh, Black...it's you." She mentioned, looking back to Jessica, who had stopped struggling to get up. Amanda watched the girl as her eyes filled with a sense of doubt in herself, and closed her eyes. Was she going to give up so easily? This was no doubt a trail, and to Amanda, at this very moment, she was failing. She listened to Black as he explained why he was there, and nodded. "Well, no...we aren't in trouble...it's just, well..." She took a deep breath. Why did she feel so ashamed? It had been an accident, hadn't it? So why was she filled with so much dread. She sighed. Everytime she thought about, her time with N on the Ferris wheel resurfaced. What right did she have to train Pokemon?

But for Black, she covered how she was feeling, smiling at him. "Ah, thanks for your concern, but there isn't any danger. Jessica, she's pretty busted up, though." She answered, gently nudging the deer. Now that Black was here, maybe she'd have an easier time with this...right? She stood up after tenderly touching the Sawsbuck on the back again and turned to Black. "Maybe you can help me get her on her feet again? The Nurse said it wasn't a good idea for her to go without trying to walk on it." she explained quickly.
