A New Night, A New Move

First topic message reminder :

((Enzu's Energy: 17))

The sun was just beginning to set as Enzu made his way into Shadowhue Forest. As Enzu walked on the tall grass that was spread around the forest ground, he examined the trees that surrounded him. They would work well as both obstacles and targets for his training tonight.

Earlier today Enzu had bought a TM from Violet's dojo, it taught him the move Aerial Ace. Even though the move itself seemed straight forward, Enzu knew enough to not assume the difficulty of a technique. He had practiced the technique in his own home, but he wanted to try building up speed with more obstacles, and also wanted to include the possibilities of distractions. Enzu continued to walk through the woods until he would find a suitable spot to begin his training.

Okashi Watched as he tried to do the move again, but putting more space between him and the tree. As he charged, Okashi took notice that he didn't 'burst' so to say when he ran, like she does. She gains force and speed by 'bursting' making her start out faster, and she gains speed from her back legs and us her front to 'ride out' so to say. However, she did see that he gained more speed this time than he did last time he tried. As he attacked the tree, she notices a pokemon appear from it, moving to all fours, she stalked slowly towards the larger pokemon, wary. Her back bursted into flames, prepared to fight if she had to.

((Enzu's Energy: 15))

As Enzu began to run again, he did is best to attempt to pick up more speed than before. As Enzu ran the white streaks began to form once again around Enzu. This time Enzu was pretty sure that he was building up more speed then before but he couldn't be too sure, he would have to ask Okashi again if he improved. As Enzu neared the tree he turned in his movements again and then turned back at the tree and cut at it.

This time the cut went deeper into the tree and caused it to shake some. And as the tree shook a large pokemon fell down from above. Enzu turned to see that it was a Slakoth that was now rubbing its head.

"Oy! What's the big idea!" the Slakoth said in a deep voice, "What makes you think you have the right to simply attack someone's home!?" he asked.

Okashi stalked up next to Enzu, Staring at the sloth pokemon. She stared blankly at it, standing still. She was wary, this pokemon...seemed pretty strong, she frowned and didn't say anything to the pokemon, other then one word, "Training." she stated boredly, not really moving or shifting. She disliked having to deal with these situations, they were no good and led to fights most of the time. 'Slakoths are slow pokemon, I'm definatly faster, but I have no moves with a advantage...' She glared ahead, not really noticeable since her eyes are nearly closed. She waited for enzu to make a move, what he does decides what she will do.

"Well even if your training that doesn't give you a right to attack someone's home!" the Slakoth said angrily.

Enzu calmly bowed his head in an attempt to apologize and appease the Slakoth, "I apologize for damaging your home and interrupting your rest," he said. Enzu knew that Slakoth's were usually lazy pokemon, and preferred to spend most of their time resting, so it was understandable that he was angry at Enzu's distraction, "Is there anything that I can do to make up for the intrusion?" he asked.

The Slakoth thought for a second and said, "Carry me back up into the tree!" he said, "And then continue your training somewhere else!" he said.

Enzu nodded his head, "Of course," Enzu then attempted to have the Slakoth wrap his arms around Enzu's neck and shoulders so that he had a good grip, "Hold on tight," Enzu said to the Slakoth, who was much heavier then he expected him to be. Enzu stuck his blades into the tree trunk so that he had a good hold of his position, "I'll be right back Okashi," Enzu said. He then started to climb up the tree slowly, the Slakoth weighed twice as much as Enzu, so it was a difficult climb for Enzu.

Okashi sighed and extinguished her back, before sitting down and watching the pokemon carry the other, obviously Enzu was having some trouble but, as Okashi thought to herself, it was good training. Now calm once again the female pokemon rested her head on her paws, waiting for the pokemon to be finished with his task. She thought silently on Enzu's response to slakoth, he took it calmly, definatly a reaction that will save his life in some situations. Okashi is to lazy to really fight anything but she also happens to be a bad talker in these situations. Lack of pokemon contact can do that to you.

As Enzu continued to climb slowly, he eventually reached the part of the tree where there were branches sticking out that also seemed to be intertwined with the branches of all the other trees. Eventually the Slakoth told to Enzu, "Hey stop here, this branch on the left will do," while indicating a branch immediately on Enzu's side.

Enzu turned and looked at the brach, "Okay," he said with a nod. Enzu then helped the Slakoth get situated onto the branch so that he would not fall easily. "I'm sorry for attacking your home," Enzu said once the Slakoth was laying down on its branch.

"Yea well just continue your training somewhere else," the Slakoth said, "The two of you were kind of loud too." The Slakoths last statement was almost immediately followed by the sound of it snoring.

Deciding not to bother it anymore, Enzu quickly and quietly climbed out of the tree and back down to Okashi.

While the male pokemon was climbing the tree, Okashi took it upon herself to find something else to occupy her time. And there she was tossing a rock somehow against another rock, catching it when it rebounded back and repeating the process. 'What's this sudden urge to evolve from?' She shrugged to herself and stared ahead, "I must be going crazy." she mumbled to herself as she turned her head to observe Enzu as he came down from the tree. "Any other ideas on how to train without disturbing the local pokemon?" she asked, tossing the rock far out. "I have no good ideas." she said aloud, turning her head to watched the pokemon.

"Well actually if you wouldn't mind," Enzu began to say, "I think I'm going to head on back to my home. Since I have this new TM I am going to need to practice both it and Aerial Ace." Enzu then turned to Okashi, "Do you need help getting back to town?" Obviously Okashi hadn't walked here since she was dropped in by the Murkrow, so maybe she needed help getting back he figured.

Okashi blinked at his question, Having not thought about leaving or how she would leave. She shrugged and decided to take up his help on this matter.

"I honestly have no idea how to get out of this place. Never thought on it, sooo."

She walked over to him slowly and sat down again, looking around then stopping to look at him from behind her eye lids.

"Escort me out?"

Enzu nodded at Okashi's request. "Sure, it is only a short walk back to town." Enzu said. "I had only walked for a short while from my home and it's on the outskirts of town. So once we get there you'll be able to make your way back to town safely." Enzu didn't mind escorting Okashi back to town, he simply wanted to return to his dojo so that he could learn and begin practicing False Swipe.

"Okay then Lead the way."

She Would then just follow the pokemon to where ever he may lead her, not trusting her own sense of direction to not lead her deeper into the forest and into pokemon she's too weak to fight against yet, that would be very bad after all. She could only hope it doesn't take to long to get out, she wants to be home and asleep ASAP.

(Sorry Late, and Okashi is gonna just follow him out. I have no idea what to actually post about.)
