Echo's from the Past

[Holley Yuroi]

As soon as her application was accepted, Holley was off to the Laboratory. She was seeing people--trainers--having fun with their Pokemon. She couldn't wait. "There it is!"[/color] Holley yelled. She could see the word: Laboratory. She started running to it. She was about 55 feet away when she tripped over something. Someone had left a Deck of Cards on the ground. Oh no... I need to forget about Magic! She thought. So she forced the thought out of her head. I'm ready for my Pokemon! Holley convinced herself she would never pick up a deck of cards again. "I can't wait..."[/b] Holley muttered impatiently.

Holley walks up to the Lab and opens the door. "Hello? Is anyone here?"[/color] Holley asked, her voice echoing. The tester better not be a magician. I'll flip out if it is. Holley thought. Her past was haunting her. She used to be one of the best magicians around. Her magic tricks amazed everyone: Cards, Props, etc. The mere thought of magic made her shiver. She forced magic out of her head. All she had to think about was Pokemon. "Is anyone here? I'm here to take the test."[/color]

The Lab

As the girl entered the lab, a creepy feeling flew threw the air. The lab appeared to be nice & clean as a whistle but empty as plains were endless. There could be no sound heard from any aspect. Left, right, up, or down. No where. Was anyone home? Suddenly the sound of light but echoing click could be heard, as a blue haired woman in a skimpy nurse outfit arrived. Her nurse outfit being mainly white with red trim all over. Her skirt too short, and her clevage revealed. Her heels were crimson red, stating "bad" as they were heard with each foot step. Finally, the woman stopped feet away from the door, having arrived fully, from the back room. She released a small polite yawn.

"Someone's here pretty early." Sim noted aloud, sparking conversation wioth the girl. "I guess shes eager to be in such a nice school." Sim thought to herself. "Well, look at that table there. Choose one of the pokeballs." She informed, pointing lightly at the silver table. On it rested three shiny pokeballs, each with a note card in front of them, stating the needed knowledge.

"Be quick about this!" The woman snapped. "If your gonna be a student her, you've gotta be ready. Now hurry up." She got impatient, standing firm while eying the girl.

ooc: pokeball list :3

whismur: Hyper voice, astonish, pound, screech
chikorita: Magical leaf, poison powder, light screen, body slam
basculin: Final gambit, aqua tail, crunch, chip away

[Holley Yuroi]

Whismur isn't Holley's type. Basculin's nice. "I'll take Chikorita please." But Basculin's a fish; fish outta water is an epic fail. Holley thought. Well, here goes nothing! "Chikorita, go!"[/color]

The Lab

"Well lets get started." The nurse told the girl, that released a chikorita. "Chiko!" It cried with excitement. It appeared confused and unsure of the trainer that released it from the ball. The nurse reached into her clevage, pulling out a small piece of paper. On it were instructions to be as harsh and fierce as possible. They were notes she took from speaking to the principal, when she asked about testing. "Well. Thats simple." She put the notes back in her clevage pocket, returning to the girl.

"Alright mamoswine. Destroy her!" The nurse gently opened up the pokeball, pressing the white circle button. "Mamo!" The mamoth announced itself, being freed from its mobile home. "Lets get this over with. The faster I finish this, the better." The nurse commanded with a strong, fierce tone of voice. The pokemon were both for testing, but both had respect for the nurse, seeing her determination & confidence. The mamoswine stood tall, preparing for whatever commands were to come. "start with ancient power." Sim told the mammoth.

Giant rocks floated around the pokemon, making it appear to be psychic. "Alright, launch." She followed up. The rocks rose & all at once shot at the chikorita. The attack could miss, if so the nurse was prepared. If it hit, she would just pile on more damage.

[Holley Yuroi]

Holley thinks about it. Ancient Power? She knew what she'd try. "Okay, Chikorita! Try to dodge it. Then use Magical Leaf!"[/b] She hoped it will do something. At least slice through Mamoswine's thick fur, Holley was hoping it would work. The lady wasn't showing any signs of weakness or stress. Holley wouldn't either. "I will do my best to win this." Holley murmered.

"How smart but foolish! That means my attacks will keep coming." The nurse spoke. She watched the chikorita dodge a few rocks, the rest pretty much missing on their own. They were already a bit off track from the start, so it didnt matter much to Sim. As long as she did her job, and mopped the floor with the student, she didnt care about what else was going to happen.

"That doesnt benfit me at all." She noted aloud. "Lets pick up the pace." She told her mamoswine. It nodded firmly, agreeing with her. It was prepared to demolish the grass opponent, as soon as possible. "Use ice shard & shoot down those leaves!" She commanded with attitude. The mamoswine complied fully with a mere ounce of its strength, forming a small icy, crystal ball in front of its mouth. "Swine!" It shouted, launching multiple miniature ice shards at the leaves. Each one accurate as ever, cutting through the leaves & heading to the chikorita.

[Holley Yuroi]

The ice was cutting through the leaves with pinpoint precision, each shard leaving nothing in it's trail. She thinks she can beat me? Holley thought. Probably, but I won't give up. "Okay, Chiko, wait a few more seconds, then jump over the ice shards."[/color] Holley commanded. Then, use Poison Powder on Mamoswine!" A purple glow started to appear around Chikorita's mouth. With the flick of her wrist, Holley commanded Chiko to release the poisonous powder from it's mouth. The Chikorita followed suit, sending powder flying through the air. Holley was hoping the powder would penetrate Mamoswine's fur. This better work.

The Lab

The cikorita tried jumping through the shards & oddly succeeded. She had dodged multiple shards very quickly, but the nurse kept her game up. "Alright mamo. Dont get hit! Avoid with a blizzard!" She commanded. The giant mammoth took a large inhale, the poison coming closer. The over sized pokemon stood tall & firm. It wasnt going to be moved or scared away by some powder. Quickly in breathed out all the ice & snow he could. The sparkles and snow spann rapidly at the grass type. This move was sure to do some kind of something.

"Mamo!" It roared at the chikorita, the blizzard becoming more intense aiming at the chikorita. Lisa wasnt too sure about what was happening. But she was certainly doing what she could to pull off a win. She was going to give it her all, though she was irritated that it didnt actually, directly benefit her.

[Holley Yuroi]

Blizzard? Holley thought this nurse wasn't giving it her all, and she surely didn't appear so. She had to be though. No one is THIS good, are they? Holley pondered. "Chikorita, use Light Screen to dissapate the Ice Shards." This better work... Then run at Mamoswine and use Body Slam!"[/color]

[Nurse Butler]

The Lab

"Ugh." The nurse groaned & moaned. The light screen urked her nerves, just by hearing it being called out. The mamoswine gave a blank stare. It then looked at the grass type fighting for itself, as if preparing to put its life on the line. The desperate pokemon had prevented all of the attacks from coming through & had started to annoy the mamoswine. It grew furious & annoyed with how the ice shards just shattered against the light, thin barrier.

"Dont think its a victory, yet at least." Sim told the girl. The chikorita then charged forward at the mamoswine, with a full out body slam. "Mamo!" The pokemon let its rage be shown. Ittilted back, ready to send the chikorita flying, until hearing the nurse's commands. "Dont you dare mamoswine." She enforced with a firm tone of voice.

"mamo?" it questioned, leaning forward. Its attack was canceled & it planned on waiting for further instruction. "Just take the hit, your a big guy." She encouraged it to stand still. "Mamo!" It stood strong, to take the body slam head on.

[Holley Yuroi]

Take the hit? Holley wondered why she said that. Then it came to her: It's a TRAP! "There's no changing my actions now." Holley confirmed. "Chiko, sprint at Mamoswine with all of your might!" This better work, or else Chiko's out of energy... Mamoswine isn't going to faint from this; it will get hurt though. All she could do now was pray that the attack would do more than 'hurt'.

The mamoswine, took the hit head on, the body slam and paralysis. The chikorita's attack did a small size of damage & managed to stun the pokemon. Though it took its damage & was temporarily paralyzed, the giant ice & ground dual type stood firm, watching the puny grass type's next move. "Well big guy, thanks. I dont want that poor chikorita to get anymore messed up than it has by the past attacks. The chikorita's runnin low on steam though, so we'll win this thing for sure." The nurse confidently told her testing pokemon. It nodded lightly, unable to really utilize its body. It eyed down the grass type, ready for the poor thing to collapse from the lack of energy.

The nurse looked at the cute little grass type, annoyed with the fact that it had been taking a small beating. The mamoswine wasnt in bad condition but it was also tired itself. Though it didnt show on its tough exterior. "Mamo." It took heavy deep breaths. The nurse decided to bargain. "For the sake of these two pokemon & my scedule, I'll make a proposal. Your chiko is quite tired. Mamoswine is paralyzed & cant fire off a blizzard again. So it will be up to you to decide whether to keep going or stop here." The nurse offered.

[Holley Yuroi]

Stop or keep going? Holley wasn't torn between the decision. Holley know her answer. "For the well-being of both our Pokemon," Holley started, "I think it would be best to stop battling to prevent further damage."[/color] She finished the battle with one measly sentence. "It was an interesting battle."[/color] Holley had learned something today: A draw is better than total annihilation. "Thanks, and have a nice day."[/color]

"Good." The nurse spoke one word, returning the mamoswine. She was surpriseed in a very good way. If the girl had chosen to keep fighting, the nurse would have labeled her as irresponsible as a trainer. "Good." Sh released one word again. She placed her pokeball with mamoswine inside, on a small circular table, when she had called the mammoth pokemon back.

She turned to the girl student. "That was very responsible. As a trainer, you should always care about your pokemon. Weak or strong. With such a good desicion you made with ease, your fitting of yellow dorm." She told the girl with a firm smile. The girl was obviously responsible. With her, pokemon werent in the wrong hands. She was a trusting you miss indeed. The nurse walked over to another table beside the original, that held two pokeball, one being in the girl's possession. She pointed at the three balls, informing of what each were. "You have another choice. Ledian, Piplup, or a Chandelure." She stood firm next to the pokeballs.

[Holley Yuroi]

"I'll take the Piplup, please."[/b]
