In Hoenn, wars are not fought by Pokémon alone. [break][break]

It is important for members of Team Rocket to have an understanding of and familiarity with the tools and equipment they will be using in the conflicts ahead. Exposure and practice using this equipment is key to success — and survival. [break][break]

Circe felt herself at a standstill, an unusual thing for her normally decisive thinking. On one hand, they could toy with dangerous weapons and shoot at a variety of targets and dummies. Circe was skeptical about using weaponry for personal reasons, though she could rationalize that it would be necessary in combat. On the other, driving lessons awaited them, and their options were not limited to just cars. She enjoyed the idea of a luxury drive, but that was not what this training entailed.[break][break]

"You." She faced her partner-of-the-day, her height just meeting his with the help of her two-inch heels. "Are you good at driving?" she said, implying that she wanted to spend their time with vehicles.

notes

weapons/vehicles, either choice is fine!

[attr="class","mark-inner"]What a drag.

Mark couldn't shake the feeling of frustration. This whole infantry training exercise felt like a waste of time to him. His talents extended far beyond the basics of weapons and vehicle operation. His true weapon was his mastery of the internet, as he was capable of wreaking havoc with just a few keystrokes. Field operations seemed trivial in comparison.

As he stewed in his thoughts, a new presence cut through his irritation like a breath of fresh air. Lush locks of mint-green hair stood out vividly against the drab training grounds. Mark's eyes followed her from her face down to her shoes and back up again, taking in every detail before finally meeting her gaze. She asked him a question, her voice pulling him out of his moment of dread. He felt a flush rise to his cheeks and quickly looked away, trying to focus on the other soldiers in the distance.

"Depends on what I'm driving," he replied, hoping to divert attention from his sudden moment of embarrassment. Mark would willingly accept anything she chose for them.

You find yourself within an expansive hangar. Parked before you are an incredible assortment of vehicles: tanks, Humvees, supply trucks, ATVs, small aircraft, and more. Anything that might prove useful in the war effort. Adjacent to the hangar is an open range used for the practice and maintenance of these vehicles. [break][break]

She liked the response she received from him, physically and verbally. It brought a small smile to her face. "Well, let's go see what our options are, hm?" She beckoned him with a finger before turning toward the hangar.[break][break]

It was almost terrifying to see what Team Rocket was capable of. Though, she realized, that meant people like her would be required to actually drive them. She stood near the entrance, both hands at her hips in a power pose, as she decided on what vehicle to test their abilities on. Flying was out of the question. If she wanted to fly, she would just use her noivern. She wanted to ride in style.[break][break]

"That." She pointed out to a two-person ATV amongst the vehicles. It was beautifully crafted in black and red to match the organization's colors. "You drive, and I'll hold on to you," she said, the tip of her incisor poking out like a tease.[break][break]

She climbed into the ATV and sat herself in the back seat. It was uncomfortable, but what was she to suspect? She spread her legs to make room for Mark Cunningham and playfully pat the empty space in front of her. "Ready when you are."

[attr="class","mark-inner"]Mark tried to play the part of a grunt as the woman took charge. He watched as she deliberated over the options before settling on a two-person ATV.

"You want me to drive th—?" Mark's question was cut off by Circe's playful yet insistent instructions. Her confidence flustered him, but it also spurred him on, pushing him to want to impress her. As she tapped the empty space in front of her, he experienced another feeling of warmth creeping up his neck and cheeks.

Swallowing his nerves, Mark climbed onto the ATV. The sensation of Circe's presence just behind him was almost too much to bear. He focused intently on finding the ignition, trying to mask his embarrassment. Although he had seen diagrams and understood the mechanics, he had never actually driven one of these vehicles before.

As he turned the key and pulled the handle, the ATV roared to life. The sudden surge of power caught him off guard, and the front wheels lifted off the ground. Mark leaned forward desperately to keep the ATV from tipping backward, but not before the stunt drew the attention of everyone in the hangar.

After test driving one or more of the available vehicles, a nearby nosy grunt suggests that the two of you enter into a little friendly competition. There's a track available to race any of the ground vehicles, it's up to you whether or not you want to indulge the grunt and provide them with some entertainment. [break][break]

Once Mark was in position, Circe made herself comfortable by wrapping her arms around his waist (to ensure safety). She had intended on leaning in to whisper sweet nothings, but when the ATV kicked into gear and attempted to throw them off, Circe found herself clinging to him even more desperately.[break][break]

There were few things in the world that made Circe break out of her cool and confident demeanor. Hearing the collective laughs of others nearby drew blood into her face. "Don't you know how to drive?" she snapped into Mark's ear. Soothing whispers and sweet nothings were out the window now.[break][break]

She cleared her throat to regain composure, but her hands were still firmly around Mark, in case the ATV threatened to buck them off again. Circe was not interested in being made to look like a fool even more.[break][break]

"Take it easy," she said, unintentionally blowing hot air onto his ear. But it wouldn't be long until a fellow grunt interrupted them with his idea of fun. Perhaps their earlier stunt led others to believe they would make quite the racing pair.[break][break]

Circe held her nose in the air and looked down at the grunt. "What a joke. I'm not here for your entertainment." Said the actor. "I prefer this. Don't you?" she then purred at Mark, finding any excuse to keep him by her side and at the wheel for the both of them.

[attr="class","mark-inner"]Mark finally understood why he had been pushed into the driver’s seat. If anything went wrong, like accidentally popping a wheelie for everyone to see, he would be the one to blame. Despite this, Circe still had him under her control. If she so much as told him to sit like a dog, he would obey.

"Y-yeah, I think we're good," Mark echoed, his voice betraying his nerves. Whether it was a cough from his own saliva or a subtle cry for help, the stutter revealed his situation to the other grunt.

Instead of racing, they took a gentle, almost romantic, ride around the base. Mark carefully navigated the ATV, avoiding grunts and equipment along the way. He focused on the path ahead, playing the role expected of him until his partner decided she was done with him.

The drive was a bore save for a few sudden bumps in the road. "If only there was a sunset," Circe had joked at one point, which was already a difficult scenario to ask for when in the city of Sootopolis, surrounded by its white crags.[break][break]

Fortunately for the both of them, they did not need to spend the entire day on their Sunday drive. As the time neared its end, Circe motioned for Mark to return to the hangar and park. Mark had done splendidly, for the most part.[break][break]

"I look forward to playing with you again," she said, gently patting him on the head and lifting herself off the ATV. As a farewell, she blew him a kiss before exiting the grounds.

[attr="class","mark-inner"]Despite a few hiccups, their Sunday drive was far smoother than Mark had expected. It was peaceful in a way he was unaccustomed to. Mark knew the theory behind relaxation but had rarely experienced true peace. This was something he could get used to, though he knew good things never lasted forever. When Circe motioned for him to head back to the hangar, he obediently followed her command.

As they prepared to part ways, the shivers returned. Circe gave him a gentle pat on the head and blew him a kiss goodbye, flustering him all over again. The hair on the back of his neck stood up, and he was forced to pause for just a moment.

"Me too," he blurted out, instantly realizing he had agreed to something he didn't fully understand. He quickly turned his face away, aiming his gaze at another group of grunts to hide his embarrassment.
