Running Amok

First topic message reminder :

Sierra

By the time the young Shinx cub had seen the town, she swore it was just a mirage... but then again, mirages don't really happen in temperate climates, do they? With a deep sigh, her weary pawpads slowed to a stop as she gazed down upon the town.

Well, finally here... curse that old bird, why did I even listen to him? Her thoughts clouded her mind as she almost seemed to scowl at the town. The Skarmory had informed her to, and she quoted "Pick yourself up and act like a decent 'mon", by pushing her towards socializing. But, this wasn't one of those towns where you'd go and actively cause trouble.

No... she could clearly see there was a police station from her vantage point, which made her stick out her tongue in disgust. Authorities had nothing better to do then to harass her, in her mind, and were better left out of the equation. Still, it meant that there wasn't going to be any funny business... at least, not the severe kind of funny business.

With each solid, yet weary step, the Shinx had moved her way into the town, weaving expertly through the population in the streets. In all honesty... it was a relief nobody seemed to have recognized her... the 'Shinx of the Jungle' had built a small reputation for the few, tiny jungle towns far off, but news of the street urchin hadn't really spread to the major towns. It was a sigh of relief to be sure.

Eventually, the pokémon stopped at a small watering fountain, and stared into its depths. At that moment of time, she wasn't so far beyond drinking the water at the risk of her humility, but the last time she drank from a fountain, well... 'disrespecting an ancient feature' wasn't a crime in her book until recent. She grumbled and simply sat.

It was a bit depressing, really. A quick check on her person led to... nothing, essentially. Not even a single Poké to spare. Further more, she was hungry, thirsty, and spend the last three hours walking. All in all, it was kinda a bad day.

The Shinx grinned to herself... no day was gunna be a bad day... she was gunna find an adventure, and make friends!

......................She watched as the pokémon around her walked by. Eventually.

Sierra

The Shinx turned, smiling at the Riolu. From there, she gained a great big smile, eyes brimming with overconfidence. "Big tree, can't miss it... got it. Thank you, and..." There was a swish of her star-tipped tail. "You can call me Sierra... although some know me better as 'The Shinx of the Jungle'." The name itself was an odd one... Luxray prides were more plainsland based, so the title was a bit of an anomaly.

With that, she wandered off, sighing to herself. Rally seemed like a nice 'mon, but she had issues with Fang. There were things about her that lead to a disconnect, and it'd take some work to make up for their small disagreements today. Still... it was still something, wasn't it Skarmory? Making friends? She chuckled to herself and let go, disappearing into the town's population.
