[attr="class","skullbody"]It was practically a dead heat as everyone moved into the last round of the contest. And then, instead of a third show of adorable precociousness, they were taken to a field and dropped into a physical challenge. Huh. Trees, bushes, and planted rows of vegetables stretched for as far as the eye could see. Isaac looked at Hearth, planning how he would scheme out this harvest. And then he turned to the crowd, flashing them a confident smile.[break][break] "Let's roll!"[break][break] That was Hearth's cue. The Cyndquil curled into a little ball, revved up a few times for momentum, and then Rolled Out towards the tree closest to Isaac. Isaac gleefully obliged, stepping out of Hearth's way and ushering him onwards with a little flourish. The Cyndaquil bumped right into the tree, a shower of apples tumbling into the air. It twirled on the way down, Isaac leaning to catch each and every piece that he could inside of his bucket.[break][break] Rather than lose his momentum, Hearth simply bounced off of the tree and revved some more. A rollout only got stronger the more it was used, a point Hearth demonstrated by blazing past a patch of root vegetables. As he balanced on the precarious mound of dirt between growths, his body glowed a light lilac, his Extrasensory allowing him to pluck the vegetables from the ground in his wake. They followed him like a gaggle of baby ducks, even as he trailed a great, sweeping arc across the field.[break][break] Isaac stood with his basket at the ready; the next time Hearth passed, he held it out to catch a medley of potatoes, carrots, beets, and onions. He presented his haul to the audience with a flourish, only to hold up a single finger. They weren't done yet![break][break] The berry bushes were Hearth's final target. By now, his Rollout was as fast as it could ever get, and he looked like a tornado of mystic force and flickering flame as he rolled circles around a bush of blackberries. The Extrasensory was almost like a funnel now, a tornado of freshly-plucked berries twirling over the bush.[break][break] One last, sweeping circle left a root in Hearth's path, the bump sending Hearth tumbling into the air. He uncurled from his ball and waved to the audience, all as the blackberries swirled around him like a planet's rings. From there, he pointed down at Isaac, sending a flood of berries into the basket until it was practically overflowing.[break][break] Satisfied, Isaac set the basket down to catch one last thing; Hearth. He caught the Cyndaquil in his arms, giving the giggling fire-type a little spin. He then held him to the crowd, their smiles radiant. "Thank you! You've all been a terrific audience!" he said, setting the Cyndaquil down so the two could take a little bow.[break][break] And that was the curtain call on Isaac's first contest.
