rawing attention to a newcomer. she'd come to watch a lilligant watching silently from behind the tree. brionne, pointing, called out to the lilligant. "oh! hello, were you watching?" she spoke to the bashful lilligant. it was mesmerized by the display of performance between evelyn and brionne. "did you enjoy that little show?" she wasn't sure how to respond to the trainer, but a light nod was given.
[break][break]
"come on out..." an extended hand offered. the lilligant began to walk over toward the shore of the lake where evelyn stood. taking hold of evelyn's own hand, "you have a lovely flower! if you would allow me, i'd like to showcase it on the stage. i'm an idol you see, and i believe we can make a splendid performance together." she ended. the lilligant was hesitant and unsure, but the thought of being allowed to also shine like brionne would be wonderful.

[break][break]
"please, oh please! i can show you a whole new world outside of this place if you'd just give me the chance!" clasped hands begged. the lilligant was truly needed on her team. she'd be a great contribution. but would the hesitant lilligant choose to leave a safe haven known as the safari zone. "if you'll have me, just simply touch this button on this ball here. this will be the start of a new bond!" placing the safari ball in front of her. she wondered what the lilligant would choose.

ining in one of the many finest restaurants of lilycove city, la la lily, the time of day had been night. her hairstyle of choice for tonight's evening was a messy french braided boho updo. she wore a dark, and slightly ruffled, short backless boho dress. skin shown, she, too, wore for footwear a pair of black suede ankle strapped heels. a light, black handbag was within her hand. inside of it? just some handy essentials just in case an 'uh-oh' were to occur.

[break][break]

she sat at a dinner table awaiting for her brother, whom she hadn't seen for quite sometime. recently resurfacing upon the scenery, they had much to catch up on and discuss. it was valentine's day after all, and who better to spend it with then the one she loved most? as she sat at the candlelit dinner table. she merely scrolled upon her cellular device in wait for her "date"; jazzy music playing all the while.

erfect. this will serve as a wonderful apology gift to her eldest brother. "i'll send you the details later, for now just hold onto the little one for me please." she nodded. another pokemon had arrived on the scene. she watched from afar as it, too, had been lured by the blueberry scent. with furrowed brows the blonde marched over. "hey, what's exactly in this thing? what..." examining it upon having snatched it away, "...is this even?" what was in this scented aroma that bestowed attraction to it.

eassurance wasn't met. she was still worried about kyle. he was reckless, stubborn. he was being stubborn at this very moment! "that doesn't reassure me your safety you dumb, jolteon!" he was going up against rocket. she couldn't help him even if she wanted to, but if something bad were to happen...was she willing to compromise her relations with the group to save him?

[break][break]

"i've been doing fine on my own. i'm a silph, we learn to adapt and protect ourselves; somehow we also attract danger..." she was a tough girl. anyone who knew her knew she was well-refined in the art of self-defense; though, she only used it when necessary. "and a more specialized team, what do you mean?" she asked with curiosity. eyes staring with suspicion.

[break][break]

"have you gotten stronger since i last saw little alpha?" she teased. "where is little alpha anyway? has he gotten any bigger yet!" evelyn asked with glee. the leader of the sextuplet poochies, the last time she saw him he was but a mere poochyena.

o extreme force? this caught songbird by surprise. was this a test? no, she didn't seem like the type to test someone when it came to the matter of life or death. but if they weren't to extract the information that was acquired songbird would not hesitate to utilize force. "ah..." what was she thinking? she was beginning to sound like her brother and silas as well.

[break][break]

covering her mouth. she'd follow emma in suit. "as long as we avoid the silas's wrath, i'm fine with the decision." songbird replied. "though, i must ask, this artifact must be of great importance if we're to do whatever it may come to for this artifact." songbird commented, curiosity loomed inside emerald hues. "do you know as to what the artifact is or what it does?" songbird asked.

ollowing in suit. she examined the scenery ahead of her as they walked along the shore. "i'm searching for a feebas because i'm building a team if you must know." she replied. this team being one of her many. "i think i want to try for becoming champion." a narrowed gaze stared ahead. "i want to become champion so that i can do what i can for this region. though, it won't be easy, but i want to..." she'd bashfully pause to gather thoughts. "...i want to stand on a bigger stage." being an idol was fine, but it didn't align with what she truly wanted to be.

[break][break]

she wanted to use her music to make change. yet, she feels as though peace is still far from possible. "after what happened to slateport and the surprising news of the champion standing down as, well, the champion! someone has to take the mantle or else the league will continue to be shown as weak!" she turned to kyle with an intense look in her eye. that look screaming with passion of wishing to fix this broken region.

[break][break]

"the leaders we currently have won't be enough to stop team rocket. i should know, i literally work close with them!" she placed her hand over her heart, "there are people working their against their will. who can't escape because they're being held hostage for various of things, kyle. i want to save them, but i can't. and i feel powerless to do so." she thought she could change rocket from the inside, but she's nothing more then a participant at this point. why was she still here? to runaway from fernando? to act as his spy--a pawn?! she was confused. shaking her head, she'd turn to kyle, "that's why i need your help. you're the only person i can come to about this...i can't even...cait and stormy..." she was at a loss for words. eyes aimed downward to the sands beneath their feet.

rivial. it was all so trivial. she didn't expect cait to understand. how could she? no one did. no one except kyle lopez. he was the only person she told the truth behind her defection. it hurt to have to lie to the others--even cait. but she needed to play her role. though, as she deeply thought about it, perhaps it was worth cait knowing the truth as well. her optic stare transitioned from a steely form into one of sorrow. she thought about it for a moment, uttering the next, "cait, i--" the roaring cry of a flamethrower covered the air.

[break][break]

a mighty howl arose from songbird's peripheral vision. "!" it was her target of search: the houndoom. "it's you!" the creature she was in search of this entire time, the houndoom, had found its way to her. but little did the group know? houndoom wasn't alone. "we'll talk more later, cait. my target's come to show itself; it's time to take the stage, lopunny!" plucking a ball capsule from her bracelet. she'd enlarge the item with the single press of a button and called forth her pokemon.

[break][break]
taking a stand against the houndoom, they'd stare one another down. the beast was ferocious and wild, but it brought little fear to lopunny. who, also, was ready to fight back. "go forward with dizzy punch!" combat ready, lopunny rushed quickly. maneuvering with a swift and agile speed, she'd utilize an offense stance. fist up and body lowered, lopunny took the form of a boxer. rushing in to throw a right hook and then a left, the houndoom casually dodged all the same. using its tail to smack the lopunny across the face and throw her off. once more did it attempt to utilize its tail to smack lopuny; though, with a quick duck, she'd catch the houndoom off guard with a dizzy punch from underneath. striking the dog pokemon and sending it backwards.

[break][break]

lopunny began to punch the air, wanting more combat. "good job, but it doesn't seem to be done; its preparing for another flamethrower. you can't get burned!" the houndoom, inhaling, released a powerful roar of fire. "bounce and then high jump kick!" dodging through the usage of bounce. lopunny would jump high into the air only to return with an outstretched leg that would land upon the houndoom's head. causing the dark-type to receive a great deal of blunt damage. "please move to the side lopunn, quickly!" evelyn exclaimed, removing an empty ball capsule from her bracelet and launching it forward. she would attempt to capture the houndoom while it was down.

hocked. her expression was taken aback by the strike of an unexpected question from her superior. marriage? the thought of such a thing. she thought about her long time friend kyle lopez for a moment and wondered about such a facade. "marriage..." she lowly repeated. the thought of it never crossed her mind. all she saw in her future was the FERNANDO SILPH and those of her clan. "marriage is out of the question." she replied.

[break][break]

"there's not a single man on this earth who can prove to be husband material." as hard as her outer expression and talk may have been exhibited. it was in the back of her head that it was something she'd like to consider one day--just not now. "besides, i've chosen to dedicate myself to rocket. all in hopes of my elder brother's fall." her face was colorless. a cold gaze faced forward, "i was wondering..." she wanted to ask about dahlia. ask as to how she was doing, if she were being fed, and if she was in good health. "...nevermind." but she merely chose to divert her mind from such unnecessary thoughts.

[break][break]

"i am here to act as your sword. my opinions are not necessary." that's right. when she was around SILAS BLACKWELL, everything else was trivial. she needed to play her part; nothing more, nothing less. simultaneously, the palm of her left hand maneuvered toward her right wrist to pluck a single ball capsule from the bracelet that held four others. just whose ball did she choose? all were soon to find out.

he minun, too, attracted by the blueberry scent. would come to halt to find another scent, one of strawberry. it was mesmerizing--alluring even. and the minun would come to pounce unto the back of songbird. sniffing her as if searching for some sort of source to create such an aroma. "y-you're quite the handy type it would seem." as the minun was clung unto her back, she would turn her gaze toward the male.
[break][break]

"u-uhm, you say that pikachu reside around these parts? i'd like to--eep!" she accidentally belched out a noise she'd never made before. songbird had a thing about being touched by those she did not know, and this minun was one of those! "e-excuse me?!" the minun was searching about her lengthy hair for the scent. all so that it may steal the item that which ejaculated such fine aroma. "w-whatever you're looking for, you won't find it!" plopping from her head and onto the ground, the minun began to ask an abundance of questions.

[break][break]

alas, she did not possess the ability to understand pokemon. but from what she could gather, "you're...searching for the blueberry scent?" she'd point to the male across from her. but minun shook its head, pointing directly at her. "m-me? the item i have that you're looking for is back home. do you wish to go home with me...?" the minun nodded. looking toward its fellow opposite, plusle, minun pointed directly at songbird.

[break][break]

"w-what? well, i do need an electric-type. but this partnership is only temporary!" she stated, raising a single finger. the pokemon would nod immediately. understanding the agreement of their contract, "actually..." thinking about it, "you and that plusle will be better off wit someone i know personally. he's actually got an assortment of sweet scents you will both come to like." looking toward Rikiya Oshiro, she'd point, "hey, you!" she called out. "whatever you're willing to pay for that plusle, i'll give you the money. a plusle and minun should never separate from one another; so, if you would kindly, i'd like to offer she and her brother a home." there was someone who'd put these two together to great usage. better then she or her fellow companion ever could.

[break][break]

taking out a single pokeball, she'd tap it upon the head. "alright, now that we're agreement. please kindly allow me to capture you." songbird asked. the minun was then engulfed by a beam of crimson energy. now, would the minun try to escape and change its mind or did it plan on staying for the long haul?

adly, she had to keep up appearance. it hurt for cait to say such a thing. how could she hate any of them? they were her family. it was merely fernando that caused her to leave at first, only for him to find her and cause her to work for him undercover. it was inevitable for her to escape, caught between a zangoose and a seviper. she was merely a pawn. though she chose to come over to rocket of her own accord deep down inside, it made her question as to why she remained. under fernando's orders? no, he'd allow her to come home if she just asked.

[break][break]

to what made her stay? she committed unforgivable sins by working with rocket--working with silas! perhaps, "self-discovery." she stated to cait, back turned. "i'm doing it to obtain a conviction. becoming an idol under the moniker 'eve', becoming a silph, and now a rocket? i can't tell if what i've done is of my own volition or another's. betraying you all..." she'd look off to the side, arms cusp underneath her breast. "i merely wish to discover what it is that i want. nothing more, nothing less; you could call me a..." she paused to gather her thoughts "...complex character." joining rocket had been both a mistake but also not a mistake. "joining rocket made me see something from their point of view. and now..." turning to face cait, a haunting gaze given, [break][break]


[break][break]

a subtle declaration of challenge. if one has any desire to partake in developing real change, they must try for the lead role: champion. her following as an idol wasn't enough. her music wasn't getting through to anyone. fernando was set on defeating rocket and rocket was set on defeating the league. senseless war, it was all senseless. the gym leaders were doing nothing, the champion? nowhere to be found in the time of dahlia's absence. it was all pointless. what was she fighting for anymore? why was she trying to play for both sides? she was but a mere pawn for fernando, and a simple tool of silas. she was nothing, but that would all come to an end. "tell me something, cait, where exactly is the champion of hoenn right now?" she asked.

rawing closer, a misty terrain began to eat away at her feet. she wandered in so that she may get a better sight of the pokemon. it was none other then a, "sylveon." it's beautiful, enamoring body caught her by surprise. it was alluring, magical, and she wanted it on her team. as she was about to toss out a single pokemon for combat, she began to hear the pokemon's song.[break][break]

the sylveon was humming a tune. one of familiarity, how did she know such a song? "the forget-me-not...have you..." was the sylveon listening to her song? before she could ask, the sylveon's detection was sharp and agile. it'd turn to face the trainer, smiling as its ribbon-like tendrils and tail maneuvered around. those eyes were telling evelyn, 'come catch me if you can,' and so she was ready to do so. "alright then, here i come. come forth: brionne!" this was brionne's battlefield: water.

[break][break]

as brionne entered, she swam into the lake for cover. circulating about the sylveon as the pinkette stood upon the work, "aqua jet!" sprouting from the water, sylveon would utilize detect to swiftly dodge the incoming jet of water. upon dodging, it was as though she were dancing with little room for error; it was as if she were a ballerina. "alright then, let's show her our unison. brionne, snowball meteor!" a combination technique, brionne would utilize the move bubblebeam. as the sphere's water bypassed the sylveon who continued to gracefully dance about, little did she know what was to come next.

[break][break]

"now, icy wind!" a cool, blizzard of ashy mist captured the sylveon in its wind. it was greatly cold, and as the icy wind bypassed her; the spheres of bubble from earlier were no longer liquid but solid rather. from above the solid, ice spheres began to rain from above. "looks like a meteor shower wasn't in today's forecast. oh well." and from above it began to rain like hell. this was nothing compared to hail. this was songbird's personal hail hell. the sylveon was met with an unexpected of shower of blunt objects. it wasn't enough to take her down, but it was enough to distract her for songbird to toss out a safari ball. "here we go!" she grunted, tossing a safari ball in hopes of capturing the sylveon.
