I don't wanna change the world I just wanna leave it colderMaverick ducked out of one of the many, MANY rooms in the barracks, snorting softly. Oddly, the tan-skinned man often bunked here, seeing as it had a roof and kept the wind and and whatever else the sky threw at him off of him while he slept. Wasn't secure, really, and wild Pokemon had replaced the humans that once lived here, but...Still. It was better than some alley, and less crowded than his gang's base camp. He yawned, stretching and looking around. Mav sneezed and rubbed his next, giving another glare about. He had the strange feeling he wasn't alone here...

Van was walking down the line of the barracks. On the first floor he had heard many different stories about abnormal things happening here. Then again it was from his boss who was kind of crazy. He was told every level of the barrack's had something spooky about it. He thought that worst comes to worst he could catch a few Pokemon. He lit a cigarette as he walked it keeps him calm.

I don't wanna change the world I just wanna leave it colderUnbeknownst to him, Maverick was mimicking his unknown guest. Only, this wasn't a calming measure. This was plain old bad habit. Maverick took a short puff from a cig he'd only a moment ago lighted, sighing and blowing the smoke from his nose. Beside him, Loki was balancing on the rusted railing. <Mav, you look both bored and annoyed.> The puppy still couldn't understand that his human friend couldn't understand him. But, what did that matter when he got pet all the same? The Riolu nuzzled into Mav's hand as the man ruffled the pup between the ears. On the floor below them, Eran the Noctowl and Mika the Cherrim were playing a lazy game of tag. Otherwise...Things seemed quiet. And that made Maverick antsy. "Loki, go play with Eran and Mika..." he ordered in his usual gruff manner, sighing softly. <Aye aye, capt'n!!> Loki saluted teasingly and jumped from the railing, swinging down to the lower floor to find his teammates. Mav sighed, shaking his head. "Those creatures are gonna be the death of me someday..." He leaned on the railing that Loki had been balancing on, slouching over it and letting an arm hang over the side while he took another puff off of his cigarette.

Van after wondering about 5 minutes let out a sigh that he had found nothing interesting yet. "I guess it was just some superstition after all." The Boy said to himself. He then dropped his cigarette to the floor and stomped it out. Walking again he began to whistle this echoed throughout the barracks. He figured it would cause some Pokemon that thinks they're tough to attack him. He continued exploring the main floor. Unknown to him that another man was there. He heard the faint putter patter of feet. (Sounds like it's coming from upstairs) Van thought. So he went to go explore.

I don't wanna change the world I just wanna leave it colderThe gangster froze upon hearing the whistle. I knew it! Loki, Eran, and Mika all peeked over the railing at the stranger that had whistled, varying levels of curiosity showing in their eyes. Mav leaned over the railing, blowing out a cloud of cigarette smoke, eying the guy. His face when from mild curiosity to utter panic when a sickening groan then CRRACK rang out and the rusted railing he was leaning on gave way. Mav uttered a short yelp and flailed rather ungracefully, trying to find something, ANYTHING to grab hold of. Which happened to be a different section of railing, this one a tad more sturdy. The tan skinned man sat there, knelt, hand to his chest and eyes huge, attempting to calm the mild panic attack he was having. Loki, Eran, and Mika watched the railing fall and clatter to the ground a few stories down, blinking. Mika jumped up and climbed up to the level above her, aiming to go check on her master, while Loki and Eran just laughed like hooligans.

Van hearing loud clanking noises made a 180 and looked up. He saw a man there a tan one at that. The first thought that came to mind was what the hell someone was doing here. Then he stopped and thought about himself and why he was there. Van wen't on full alert none the less. This guy could be a killer for all he knew so he was going to keep on guard. Though he found himself stuck there not knowing what to do. whether to go see the man or run away. Well running away was out of the question he wasn't a wuss, But that man could be dangerous. Van was at a stalemate just then his cigarette dropped from his mouth to the floor. He quickly stomped it out he hated this situation.

I don't wanna change the world I just wanna leave it colderMaverick shooed away the fretting Mika, annoyed at her clinginess right now. <Mav, you could have DIED! D: > "Mika, shush before I return you..." He snorted, eying the person below. White hair, looked fit, younger than he was...That was typical of Mav, sizing someone up. Loki hopped onto Eran's back and the two flew up to the level Mav was on, still chuckling. The tan skinned man sighed, shaking his head. If it weren't for Gwain, he prolly would have gone insane with this lot of Pokemon. Again he looked down to the young man on the ground floor, rubbing his neck. "What're ya staring at, kid? Not like this is some secret hide out or some shit." he called down, sounding vaguely annoyed. Just WHAT is this kid gawking at? Light the fuse and burn it up Take the path that leads to nowhere

Hearing that it wasn't a hideout probably made it that the man and him were the only ones there. What was he staring at that question only ever had one response. "What am I looking at? Nothing much Just an idiot and his Pokemon." Van was irritated looking at this guy. He couldn't put his finger on it , but something wasn't right about him. Maybe it was that they were similar , but who knows. Maybe I can get a good battle at of this guy.

I don't wanna change the world I just wanna leave it colderMaverick seemed to bristle a moment at being called an idiot. "May be an idiot, but at least I'm not some punk kid who's too big for his breeches." Mika looked between the two men, frowning to herself. <Does Mav always have to find ~someone~ to fight?> She sighed, rolling her eyes and tugging on his pants leg. She didn't want him to fight. Mav glared down at her, wishing to punt her but not giving in to the urge. Loki and Eran eyed the newcomer, Loki with curiosity, Eran with a look of 'is this going to disturb my sleep later?'. Mav returned both Eran and Mika, letting Loki hop onto his shoulder as he walked toward the rusted metal staircase. Each step warranted a soft creak, but it didn't really bother the tan skinned man. "Go away, pipsqueak; ya bother me..." he growled out once he got the ground floor. Light the fuse and burn it up Take the path that leads to nowhere

Van couldn't control his laugh. "Pipsqueak? I'm 6"2 what are you like an inch taller then me." Van snipped. He cracked his knuckles and reach for a poke-ball. "How about a battle. It's been awhile since my Pokemon had. a good fight. Unless of course you're chicken?" At this point Van was just trying to provoke the man. He couldn't tell if it was working or not. However he felt this guy was easily enraged so it should be fine.

I don't wanna change the world I just wanna leave it colderMaverick narrowed his eyes at this kid. Cocky little shit, wasn't he? "I'll battle ya, if ya feel like having yer ass handed to ya." He snorted. Arceus did he ever hate cocky little snots! Didn't matter that the kid was almost as tall as he was, Maverick knew full well this guy was younger than him. Can't be more than 17, 18... Mav rolled his eyes. Yeah, he couldn't stand people people younger than him acting like they're hot shit. "Gotta hand it to ya, takes some guts for a twerp like you to challenge a gangster in broad daylight like this. What is this, some kind of dare from your little ~boyfriends~?" Ooh, yeah, two could play at that 'lets provoke the other guy' game... Light the fuse and burn it up Take the path that leads to nowhere

Van smirked this was going to get really fun really fast. "A gangster huh? I've taken a few of them down before." Van was not afraid of him and this was quite possibly what has kept him alive. He wasn't about to run away like a chicken shit."Naw it was a letter from ya mom telling me to put you in your place.".Van grabbed his pokeball and released his charmeleon. Who proceeded to scratch himself as he was bored. "Hey buddy on your toes shit is about to go down." The Charmeleon tensed up and prepared for battle.

I don't wanna change the world I just wanna leave it colderWhile it might have been expected of Maverick to send out a Pokemon with a clear advantage, the gangster didn't feel like having the battle over before it started. He shrugged his shoulder and Loki lept from his perch there, landing a few yards away from the Charmeleon. "Couldn't have been my mom; she's a bit dead." While he would have normally been very venomous with those words, Maverick refused to let this kid get to him in such a way. 'Yo mamma' jokes wouldn't work here. Though, the comments about taking down gangsters irked him a tad, he refused to let on to that as well. "Loki, mop the floor." The Riolu barked and let out a loud Screech before darting at the Charmeleon with Quick Attack. Wasn't his strongest move by far, but Loki wasn't about to pull out his best cards right at the beginning. Light the fuse and burn it up Take the path that leads to nowhere

Quick attack huh? to easy this will be a piece of cake. The boy was thinking to himself. "Double team!" was the call and in an instant there were at least 20 charmeleon's on the field. Van smirked if this was it had he was going down and fast. "Now use swift." then a sea of stars headed towards the Riolu. The charmeleon was getting excited he liked a good battle every now and then.

I don't wanna change the world I just wanna leave it colderLoki blinked, looking a tad confused when the Charmeleon split into so many right as he was about to hit him. He yelped when the Swift hit him, brushing the energy stars that were sticking to him off. <That hurt...> he complained, pouting. He stomped his foot and flexed a bit, powering up with Work Up before jumping up. <No more mister nice puppy!!> With that, he landed down HARD into the floor, shock waves from the blow rippling the ground and tearing cracks into the floor. Earthquake. Maverick twitched and knelt down a moment so as to not have his feet swept out from under him. Damn! He was used to that from Gwain, not little Loki! But still, he smirked at the guy across the room from him, snickering. He hoped that Loki's way of fighting would frustrate this punk. Maverick almost never ordered his Pokemon around and left them to do their own thing. To him, that was TRUE fighting! Light the fuse and burn it up Take the path that leads to nowhere

Van smirked as the ground beneath him began to rumble. He did not flinch nor wince at all. "Wuss. Charmeleon aerial ace! " was all Van said. Then the charmeleon Jumped off the ground well now rocks and slashed at the dog like Pokemon. "It will take more then that to defeat my charmeleon." Van wen't from a smirk to a grin.

I don't wanna change the world I just wanna leave it colder"Wuss my ass..." Maverick growled to himself. He knew Loki too well. This kid was over confident that he would win. That Charmeleon shouldn't be so...Damnably well off. Not after an Earthquake. It's not like it's a fuckin' Charizard! Mav snorted, seeing that Loki had brought up a Protective wall to fend off the Aerial Ace. <Yo, I'm young, not stupid!> the Riolu snapped at both his opponent and his opponent's trainer. Loki glared at the Charmeleon, seeming to search the fire lizard's movement with Mind Reader, getting a good lock. With that, the pup launched himself back into the air and jabbed his foot-paw out at the Charmeleon with Hi Jump Kick. <Eat foot, bastard!!> Maverick smirked a bit, something akin to pride in his features. That's my Loki, toughest little Riolu on the block. Light the fuse and burn it up Take the path that leads to nowhere

Van smirked ,but did not call out a command. The chrameleon used a crunch attack on the rilou's foot. Van didn't always need to use a command this was his charmeleon. Possibly one of his smartest Pokemon. He could adapt quickly in battle and that's what made him a good Pokemon.

I don't wanna change the world I just wanna leave it colderLoki screeched as his foot was caught in the Crunch. <I DIDN'T MEAN LITERALLY!!> The move itself wasn't as effective as it could have been, but it was enough. Loki flailed a bit before gagging a moment. The Riolu coughed up a sick gob of Toxic at the Charmeleon, wriggling free of him and scampering back. Maverick looked to the Riolu, hoping he'd not been hurt too badly. "Loki, good thinking. Keep it up!" Loki glanced back at Mav, snorting. <Easy for you to say! You didn't almost get eaten...TWICE.> The pup shuddered a moment, remembering when Mav captured Vespera. Loki snarled, getting frustrated with this battle, howling to the ceiling above. A soft rumble grew to a structural groan as an anger fueled Rock Slide crashed down on the 'field', causing a new 'sky light' to be added to the old barracks.

The charmelon was hit with some of the falling rock's and winced for but a moment. "I grow bored! Sword's dance!" The Pokemon then had swords come up and spin rapidly. "Now use Return!" (This puppy better be good at dodging.) Van thought to himself.
