nside the elevator he stood waiting. hands in his pocket. he didn't expect the elevator to come to a halt so abruptly. it was a sunday after all, just who in the world spent their time at the league office on a sunday? he was here to register himself and get settled in. not be faced with obstacles. and as he casually whistled a tune did a newcomer enter.

[break][break]

goggles affixed upon the top of his head. he kept his head straightforward. unnoticed to the wearer of a familiar face. mateo was one to mind his business, depending on the situation, but if you were to bother him? expect to get an angry ray of sunshine. the goggle wearing male felt as though someone was staring at him. he couldn't help it, but...it just felt as if he was being uneasily watched.

[break][break]

shifting his sight back upon the assailant. he'd stare back all with a look of confusion at first, but then, "oi!" he clapped at the man in sync with his shout. "you got a problem, idjit?!" mateo asked aggressively. wanting to understand just what the blonde headed guy's problem was. did he want some sort of pokemon battle? did he think this was a video game where if you walked in front of someone that it automatically meant a battle needed to be commenced?! no! what was wrong with him?

[break][break]

fangs bared. mateo directly pointed at the blonde, stating, "if you're trying to ask for a battle pipsqueak you best be ready to bring on the ice and some goddamn fairies!" little did mateo know, had he not been so caught up within the heat of the moment, that the person before him was one of old. "i ain't fuckin' around, idjit!"

ice! his first time here and he was already being gifted a battle?! "hell yeah!" he screamed. punching the elevator's metallic wall with his bare fist. he was excited. this was what he came to hoenn for, to meet all sorts of trainers. hoping to meet someone just the same as that trainer. alas, that dream would have to come to a standstill for the elevator had no longer been active.

[break][break]

the moment the blonde male began to press the button, nothing happened. a widened, shocking gasp had burst unto his face. did he break it by punching the wall? who the hell knew! "are you pressing the right button, idjit?!" he inquired. wanting, wishing, and hoping that were the case. mateo would come to shove the individual to the side, saying, "let me do it, idjit!" he began to rapidly mash all of the buttons. screaming as if he were relinquishing a wave of energy from the palms of his hands.

[break][break]

finally, he'd stop to take large breaths. huffing and puffing, nothing happened. "ahhhh, are you serious!" mateo, then, proceeded to slam his forehead against the metallic wall consecutively. "open, open, open, open, open!" he was in a panic not because he wanted to get out, but because he was practically feeling the weight of a climax from an exciting battle to come. but mother destiny had other plans, and father fate desired to screw with him. "oi, oi, oi, you work here right?! aren't you the custodian or something?!" he'd ask his fellow captive. turning to him with a forehead that shone a bright red mark.

taring at the bag in the individual's hand. he'd come to take note, "ah?!" he reacted. he was a customer apparently. that unexpected, why did he assume he was a custodian? there wasn't much room to understand his reasoning. regardless, that didn't fix their problem.

[break][break]

turning his attention toward the suggested button, he'd say, "you better be right about this." his focus remained upon the button. with a sigle gulp, he'd push it. and so they waited. he'd stand there waiting, waiting, and waiting. the button remained pushed in once he removed his finger, but it only took a second for the button pop out like a bullet! the button was flailing about, bouncing from wall to wall. mateo made sure not to move in hopes of not being hit. the button would come to land in between the two.

[break][break]

"wow, that normally doesn't happen in real life." he commented, an excitement donning his face, "let's do it again!" wait, pausing. he'd clear his throat. "alright, well, that didn't work." examining the mechanism that controlled the metal box. he'd try to see if there was anything that could help. "how old is this elevator? when was the last time this thing was suspected!" moving away, he'd come lean his body against the wall. "this doesn't happen where i'm from. what a crap way to start a new experience in a region." he groaned.

hat?! he's twenty-three, "i'm twenty-three, idjit!" mateo retorted. pointing at the guy, yet again, with an intense shout, "you can be any age when it comes to collecting a badge, idjit! what person in their right mind would collect badges at a young age, anyway?! especially in this dangerous region!" it was ludicrous! to send your child on an adventure at such a young age, he wished he had such an opportunity! but he got all the training he needed back home, and he was fine with that. it made him prepared for the world outside, and even in, blackthorn.

[break][break]

"hey, idjit, this region is pretty damn nice. though i've begun to hear a bit of rumors hear and there about what's going on." scratching of his head he'd place his other hand upon the hip, unsure as to how he should exactly respond to such a matter. "in all honesty, you guys are trainwreck." but then he'd give the blonde haired male a beaming grin, "it's a good thing the strongest tamer around has arrived, the true protagonist of this story!" extending the palm of his hand outward, all five fingers straight, he'd heroically pose in front of kyle with his hand in the male's face.

[break][break]

"i'm from johto. we've had our fair share of trouble here and there. now we're at peace though and that's gotten boring!" it's not to sound ungrateful that there is peace, but those who challenged his gym weren't that all entertaining. "the people back at home began to notice how bored i became, so they thought it was about time i hopped on the train ride to learn about my mother's roots; she's originally from here." mateo explained, a hand returning to his hip. "also, i'm actually here to see someone! a pipsqueak who used to work for me, he was like my little disciple. i wonder how's he doing though..."

hat?! "screw that, give me your phone!" he exclaimed. attempting to snag it from the blonde. "you don't just take pictures of people and then accuse them of being a pedophile, you creep!" what was wrong with him, seriously?! he had the same personality as his old gym trainer did. "give it here, idjit!" he flailed as the elevator made way to their destination.
