[attr="class","samjermain"]The redhead wants to sigh. She isn’t sure getting stepped on qualifies as an attack. But it should be enough. As the Roaring Moon draws close, she collapses into the dust. Cherry Bomb’s brawl behind her throws up dirt and grime. Leaves obscure the pantomime as Madeline falls to the ground. It’s graceless. The thump is harder than it needs to be. But this needs to look legitimate.

“Sand Storm!” The redhead shouts into the aether. The dragon’s natural element heeds its call as it pauses for the briefest moment. It doesn’t care about the weirdness in front of it. Whatever her trainer does is no business of hers. She then returns to hacking at the beast in front of her. The fact that it’s taller than her makes the miniscule dragon angry.

A curtain of sand falls over them. It howls and bites. Leaves turn into miniature shurikens. The detritus obscures the pantomime as Madeline falls to the ground. It’s graceless. The thump is harder than it needs to be. But this needs to look legitimate.

“AH!” A hand reaches up to her damp uniform and tears at a small hole. "No! Get off!" Her nails, though blunt, dig deeply enough to coax out blood. It’s then that the grunts stumble out of the bushes. One of them rushes to check on her and help the ‘dazed’ trainer to her feet.

A hand locks around the goth kid’s arm as she faux stumbles to her feet. “Shit!” She seethes. Rocket really isn’t all bad. “I can’t believe her Roaring Moon just hit me.” Arceus, she’s a terrible actor. The sand howls around them.

Hopefully, the doctor took a hint.

Around that time, a burly Obstagoon rushed out of the undergrowth. Merlot eyes blinked.

What'd he miss?
