[attr="class","icon"] To see that she was competitive would be an understatement. Growing up the runt of the litter—both figuratively and literally—it wasn’t easy to prove your worth. That didn’t stop when you enrolled in the armed forces. People barely took her seriously at the grocery store, much less when she commanded a group of men who outweighed her by over a hundred pounds.

A sweaty hand lifted to shake her last opponent’s hand. Her pale lips were pressed into a thin line. An expression that might remind someone of an aggressive kitten. “Thank you for the match, monsieur.” The score stood in her favor. But she knew it could be higher. Grabbing the towel at her waist, the pint-sized powerhouse dabbed at her face. It came back damp.

On the sidelines, her Lycanroc yawned. The Iron Valiant, meanwhile, tilted his head. It did not understand this battling technique. The projectile did not present any power. No one had died. “Bzzzzt?”

Blue eyes lifted as Phuong entered the field. A breath banished the shaking in her tired legs. “Bonjour.” Lydia began in clipped tones. “I am Lydia.” The next question drew a moment of pensive thought. “I would be pressed to call it passable.” To her, that eight-to-two ratio was too far from perfect. She spun the racquet in her hand as she stepped toward the starting line. “You?”
