It was callous, perhaps even cruel, but Rheese needed to hear it. Otherwise, he'd have probably found a way to ignore his weakness. This way he'd have to confront it...as for Sophia, it'd probably require him to be slightly less heavy handed approach. With a slight movement a small pile of money appeared on the counter in front of the Nurse that had remained silent until now. [color=8493ca]"For the damage."[/color] He said, despite the lack of any noticeable destruction. A few seconds later, he popped back to his lawn chair from before and laid down to consider his options. He'd have to act relatively fast, he had a few hours tops before his sister would probably making her trek up here...

[color=007236]"Oh, hey Aedre. I'm going to have to pass on that this time. You guys go ahead."[/color] Rheese said his voice low despite the forced smile on his face. [color=007236]"I need to go train on my own for a bit. I'll just meet you back here."[/color] With that he walked out of the Pokemon center. As soon as he was out of eyesight, he broke into a sprint. Most would probably think his reaction to be sadness or depression, but no...it was frustration...anger...He had been useless. As Ray said, if he didn't improve he'd probably die or get someone killed. He had to get stronger and to do so, he couldn't let anyone else distract him. At least that's what he told himself. Really it was because he was liable to blow up at any moment. He wasn't an angry person by any stretch, but the stress of the past few days coupled with his natural tendency to suppress his outward emotion was starting to affect his mental state. He needed to vent, to breathe, and most importantly...he needed to train.
