Bring It On [MOD]

[kaiyumi]

"Thank you for your kindness, really." To the Jynx, Aylin returned the grin and motioned towards the stairs. "Let's go rest, then. I'm certain that everyone is--" Yawn "--getting tired. Or just me." She laughed, before heading towards the stairs, her team following behind her obediently.

-------------

When Aylin woke up the next morning, it took her a while to recall where she was and, more importantly, what had happened last night. She glanced around the room, doing a quick head count to assure herself that everyone was here. Satisfied, her bed gave a slight creak as she got up and stretched. Beside her bed, Faris got to his feet as well, emitting a large yawn as he peered at his trainer through sleepy blue eyes.

"Rise and shine, everyone," Aylin said, smiling as the Pokemon slowly opened their eyes to regard her. Instead of calling everyone into their Pokeballs for the night, she had instead decided to leave them out, releasing her Gastly (who had chosen a spot that was rather close to Lucasta) for the night as well.

[Jay]

Downstairs, movement could be heard, yet it didn't sound very rushed... more....paced, in truth. It seemed that the Nurse had been up for quite some time. At the foot of the stairs, the Jynx from the night previously was standing and staring up the stairs rather expectantly.

[kaiyumi]

Aylin made her way down the stairs, her eyes lighting up as she noticed the Jynx stand at the bottom. Waving, she hurried down towards the psychic Pokemon.

"Good morning!" she greeted, grinning, "Did you have a good night's sleep?" She paused as her Pokemon came down the stairs behind her, calling out their own greetings. After they had each had their turn, Aylin took a deep breath and looked at the Jynx, her eyes wide with anticipation.

"...So? How is she?"

[Jay]

The Jynx nodded slowly as the girl came down the stairs and seemed to smile a little. As the question came about, the Jynx broke into a smile. <She's much better now... still bruised and cut but but but so much better> she answered back grinning rather large even on her normal face.

[kaiyumi]

"Thank goodness," she breathed, closing her eyes and smiling to herself, "I'm so relieved to hear that!" Just remembering the poor Zoroark's condition the previous evening made the girl shiver, so it was a huge weight off her chest to hear that she was recovering.

"Is she awake right now?" Lucasta wanted to know, trying not to comment about the fact that Aylin's Gastly was hovering uncomfortably close to her, "It's be nice to see her. I don't know when we're going to leave--that's up to Aylin--but we'd like to speak to her before then, at least."

[Jay]

<She's currently up at the moment, though the nurse has pretty much told her not to push herself and to stay in bed> the Jynx answered back nodding her head as she spoke. Footsteps could be heard, and, in another moment, the Nurse Joy herself stepped into sight range. "Good morning," she smiled a bit.

[kaiyumi]

Before Aylin could answer, the nurse had appeared to greet them. "Good morning!" she echoed with a smile, her team emitted their own chorus of greetings from behind her, "Thank you for letting us stay for the night. We really appreciate it!"

"I was wondering..." she hesitated for a moment before deciding to go on, "If the Zoroark isn't resting right now, could we go to pay her a visit? I promise we won't do anything to strain her!"

[Jay]

The Nurse seemed to smile a bit more than before and nodded her head a bit. "She's awake now, and I'm sure she would indeed like to see you... if you'll come this way," she smiled. The Jynx seemed to be one step ahead of the Joy and had already started down towards the back. The nurse seemed to half laugh to herself and then slowly started to lead back.

[kaiyumi]

The group followed her eagerly, laughing slightly when the Jynx chose to lead the way. Nahele's fluffy tail wagged slightly and he whined in anticipation. 'I'm so glad to hear she's okay,' he told the others, pricking up with excitement when they neared the Zoroark's room.

topping at the door, Aylin poked her head in slowly. "...Zoroark? May we come in?"

[Jay]

The Jynx clapped her hands together and seemed to smile greatly back at the Eevee. The Zoroark was sitting on a bed and seemed to look rather carefully towards the door. Upon seeing the girl and hearing the question, she nodded rather slowly (if admittedly stiff to say the least of it).

[kaiyumi]

Urging everyone not to be too loud, the Aylin slipped into the room with her team before her, offering the Zoroark a warm smile. "How are you?" she wanted to know, her voice soft, "Think you'll be fine?"

Her Pokemon gathered around the bed, and Nahele propped his front paws on the bed, whining questioningly as he tilted his head at the Zoroark.

[Jay]

The Zoroark seemed to smile a bit and slowly nodded. <Thank you so much, child... I would have frozen out there alone if you weren't around....> she breathed outwards looking towards the girl. The Jynx, who possibly had already been thanked given the way she was looking, seemed to only grin a bit more at the conversation.

[kaiyumi]

A blush blossomed on the girl's face and she shook her head quickly, giving a dismissive wave of her hand. "I-it's not like we could just leave you out there," she told the dark Pokemon, her smile softened as she gestured to her companions, "Besides, these guys really did the real work. Especially Lucasta and Jynx." She shot them a grin, and the Gothorita smiled back bashfully.

"I'm glad to see you're alright," Aylin told the Zoroark honestly, "We just...wanted to make sure for ourselves before we left."

[Jay]

The Zoroark seemed to blink slowly and nodded her head gently in understanding. <I see.......thank you.....> she answered back. The Jynx seemed to slowly nod her form. Nurse Joy seemed to walk slowly towards one of the monitors on the Zoroark and seemed to eye it for a moment before smiling again. Everything was still good ^^.

[kaiyumi]

Aylin grinned, "We're probably going to leave this area in a few hours or so--Xiaoli wants to get a little more training out of the way first--but we'll drop by one last time before we go for good." When her Gothorita drifted over to the Zoroark's bedside (followed by her Gastly, but of course), Aylin smiled wryly and turned towards the nurse.

"Would it be okay if these two stayed here for a bit while we go out to train Xiaoli?" she asked, indicating her usual trio, "We won't be gone too long, I wager."

[Jay]

The nurse Joy smiled and nodded. "Certainly," she answered back with her general light features. "Come back when you're ready." ^^ The Jynx seemed to think suddenly very deeply about something and ended up giggling to herself for whatever reason.

[kaiyumi]

"Thank you very much! We'll be back soon. Guys?" She looked at her Pokemon, and they dipped their heads politely towards the others. With that, and a grin, Aylin headed out of the center with her trio behind her.

She stretched when she stepped out in the sunlight, grinning brightly as she she stooped down beside Xiaoli. "Ready for a bit of training?"

[Jay]

Not far off, a Cubchoo appeared to be stacking large chunks of ice on top of one another. A Hoothoot could be seen sleeping in the hollow of a tree. Suddenly a sound could be heard. A larger than normal Sawsbuck could be seen walking through the area wearing his winter coat rather well.

[kaiyumi]

Aylin perked up immediately upon seeing the Sawsbuck, her eyes focused on it. She had always admired the Pokemon, but never came across one in her brief visit of Unova. Mentally, she wondered if...well, maybe if she could capture it?

Before she could figure out what to do--either to ask the Sawsbuck for a battle or just attack it as some trainers did with wild Pokemon--Xiaoli had already walked up closer to it, eying it skeptically. 'Are you big for show, or do you actually have some strength to back it up?'

[Jay]

The Sawsbuck raised an eyebrow and looked at Xiaoli rather oddly for a few seconds before his face fell back into amusement. <Is that a challenge, small one?> he asked with an ease in his voice. He wouldn't mind one, heh......
