Pokemon Centers were a gift sent from above, Claire decided as she sat up in the neatly provided bed, giving a small stretch in order to un-bunch her muscles. It was quite cold that morning, because well, it had been snowing for two days. Two days and it didn't seem like it was going to be letting up any time in the near future. Great... Looking down towards the foot of the bed, she smiled as she spotted her Minun and Plusle duo, Paprika and Pepper, curled up in two tiny balls of creamy colored fur. With another soft yawn, she tapped them and both uncurled, two sets of sleepy eyes upon their trainer as they tried to get a grip on the morning.

"Come on you two, if we sit here all day you know as well as I do that we'll just spend the entire time watching some kind of chick flick." Now, that was a guilty pleasure, one that she would fervently deny if ever asked about it. Smiling as Paprika finally stood up on her paws, Claire decided it was time she got out of bed as well. Swinging her feet forwards and letting them touch the floor, she stood and with another great stretch headed over to her bag. Sifting through it until she found what she needed, she removed her pajamas and slipped on an oversized T-shirt and a pair of jeans, going on to brush her hair and tie it into her signature green ribbon. Finally added her golden Moltres pendant that she kept tied around her neck, she headed into her bathroom and took care of what needed to be taken care of there.

"There, I think we're ready to go, right?" She questioned her rodent pair. Pepper shook his head and rushed over to her bag, pulling out the start of what seemed to be green fabric. Blushing, Claire rushed over to him and pulled him away from it, setting him next to Paprika and stuffing it back into where it had come from.

"It's too cold and besides, that thing is too fancy and....frilly for a normal day." She chided gently, causing the mouse's ears to raise up at down at the motions of her voice. Allowing both Pokemon to climb onto her shoulders, she headed down to have Nurse Joy give Paprika and Pepper a nice check up. Once that was done, she quickly filed downstairs, into the basement where trainers were allowed to use small indoor fields for practice. Good, there was no one there.

"Alright, Pappy, Pepper, we have to get it right today!" Together, the Plusle and Minun gave her a determined answer and hopped off her shoulders, getting into position in front of Claire so she could watch them.

Pepper, use Double Team! Pappy, Spark, just like we practiced!" Pepper began running circular motions around Paprika, so much so until it seemed there were multiples of him. Taking her chance, Paprika let loose a full string of blue electricity, sending bolts to the multiple forms of her partner. However, she shorted out of her powers, and Pepper slowed to a stop when he realized that Paprika was no longer working with him.

"Mi mi..."

"Pla Plusle Pla?!" Noting their tones, Cliare knelt down between them, putting a finger to her lips to quiet them down.

"Alright there's no need to fight! Still... we need to figure out how to make that work..." She murmured, half to them, and half to herself.[/style][/style][STYLE=font: italic 35px times; text-align: center; letter-spacing: -3px; margin-bottom: -8px; color: #BA0AF9;]baby, you light up my world[/style][STYLE=width: 350px; background: url(http://i.imgur.com/cHxwL.png); height: 150px;][/style][/style][STYLE=font-family: ms gothic; font-size: 12px; text-transform: uppercase;]MADE BY jumpstart! of btn and ote[/style]

Zane pressed his hand on the glass window that was inside of the Pokemon Center. He held a frown on his face as he looked at the snow falling down from the sky, he hated cold weather with a passion. Something about it just seemed to piss him off, and maybe it had to do with that thing that happened when he was little he didn't know. Nor did he really remember the events of that very clearly, all he knew was that whatever happened to him seven years ago caused a sudden dislike for the coldness that winter brought. Taking a deep breath Zane removed his hand from the glass and turned around placing both hands into the pants pocket of his baggy dark blue jeans. The weather needed to hurry up and let up so he could be on his way, staying in one place like this made it harder for him to truly become a Pokemon Master. Though considering what that group his father was working with had planned he was pretty sure that might never happen, none the less he was going to give it try. "Father....why are you working for such evil people." Zane muttered to himself, the young teen didn't care about much in this world but his father was one of the few things he did care for. He hated when his father expressed disapproval of his actions, and he really did want to make him proud. Which was the whole reason he allowed himself to be a member of these 'Knights' another sigh escaped the young boys lips as he began to walk. While he was stuck here he might as well get some training done with Ivy and Archie they were going to need it. As he neared the little training area that Trainers were allowed to use he began to hear voices, three in fact two of which Zane easily could tell came from Pokemon the other had to be a person. Once he entered the area he saw a girl talking to her two mouse Pokemon, a deepened sigh escaped Zane's lips hopefully she wouldn't say anything to him. Zane moved over to one of the two open battle areas and sent out his two Pokemon. He watched as with a flash of red light they exited from there tiny ball shaped cages. His eyes fell to Growlithe or Archie as he had been nicknamed. "We're going to work on your Flame Wheel today Archie." he spoke as his emotionless blue eyes turned towards Ivy the Snivy "As for you...well your gonna learn how to handle oncomming fire attacks." and thus with that Zane began his training. Which lasted about ten seconds before his Growlithe missed with Flame Wheel and slammed into the wall. "Archie you idiot your suppose to aim for Ivy not the wall." [/style]

Paprika and Pepper allowed their ears to perk up as they heard a trainer coming down the stairs. Claire seemed to lost in thought to notice that there was anyone besides them in the training facilities, so it wasn't until one of her trusted Pokemon tapped her hand that she snapped out of it. Blinking, she took a second to observe the boy from across the room. He looked roughly her age, which strange, silvery hair, and some piercing eye color. If she hadn't been staring before, she was now...

"Pla!" Pepper barked, quickly snapping Claire's attention back to her mice. Clearing her throat, Claire instructed the two Pokemon to get into place once again, trying their routine again in order to see if they could get it right. When Paprika shorted out again, Claire sighed. Doing these appeals was going to be harder than she thought. She hadn't even had a chance to compete yet, but somehow, she hoped to soon. Leaning down, she stroked a hand over Paprika's head, assuring the mouse that it wasn't her fault.

"Don't sweat it girly. We'll get it right soon." she attempted to assure her. Sighing, she was interrupted from saying anything else when she heard the guy from earlier scolding his Pokemon for something. A frown etched itself onto her face and she drew in a deep breath of air. Now that just wasn't right. She saw a small burn mark on the wall, and then observed the Growlithe that had been scolded. She didn't want to say anything, she really didn't, but she just had to.

"You know, there are nicer ways to tell your Pokemon they've done something wrong." She mentioned, a rather sarcastic tint to her voice as she walked up to the boy and his Pokemon. Paprika and Pepper exchanged some weary glances before bounding after her and defensively standing at either one of their sides.

"Just tell him to do it again and try harder that time. You didn't have to call him and idiot." She tried to remain calm, but things like this pissed her off. He hadn't even given the creature any encouragement! If they didn't think that their own trainer had any faith in them, how were they supposed to do anything?![/style][/style][STYLE=font: italic 35px times; text-align: center; letter-spacing: -3px; margin-bottom: -8px; color: #BA0AF9;]baby, you light up my world[/style][STYLE=width: 350px; background: url(http://i.imgur.com/cHxwL.png); height: 150px;][/style][/style][STYLE=font-family: ms gothic; font-size: 12px; text-transform: uppercase;]MADE BY jumpstart! of btn and ote[/style]
