[center][h1][color=green]Oscar Berg[/color] and [color=orchid]Sophia Danvers[/color][/h1] [h3]Vareena Gym -> Near Vareena Contest Hall[/h3][/center] [@Heckno12] [color=orchid]"One, I truly am ok, and two, how does anyone even get anywhere without pushing themselves? Especially someone like me."[/color] Oscar looks at Sophia with narrow eyes before sighing and decide not to waste any more breathe trying to get through to Sophia advice for the time being and idly listen to them talk about Rheese and recent event among other things. [color=orchid]"What?!"[/color] Sophia's eyes widened. Now her failure to help Rheese weighed twice as heavily on her conscience. She gave a tense nod. [color=orchid]"Yeah. Oscar, c'mon, we've gotta go find him!"[/color] Hoping against hope that Team Noble were long gone from Vareena, she hurried towards the arena's exit, only to stumble. [color=orchid]"Ugh..."[/color] Gripping the door frame, she closed her eyes against her lurching surroundings. Oscar follows Sophia with Skoll by his side. [color=green]”I have a fast ride to find and get to Rheese quickly. Skoll might not be at full speed yet but faster and less taxing for us.”[/color] Oscar doesn’t know Rheese well but any life in danger is never good, especially if it makes Sophia exert herself in her current condition. [color=green]”Let me help anyways as I am proven to be capable”[/color] This time, Sophia didn't argue. They really did need to stick together, especially right now. Opening her eyes, she nodded and returned all her Pokemon except Lacey. She crouched and let Lacey climb onto her shoulders, then with difficulty, climbed on to Skoll's back. Travelling fast with a migraine wouldn't do her any good, but with Rheese in possible danger, it didn't matter. [color=orchid]"He's probably fine, I mean we drove away those thugs,"[/color] she tried to reassure Oscar, and herself. [color=orchid]"It's just, when stuff like this happens, we can't be too careful."[/color] Oscar says nothing as he climbs on and goes outside with Skoll. Oscar gets Skoll to go into a trot before a gallop, trying to ease Sophia into riding on a large canine and getting used to the motions of one. They go through town looking for Rheese. Sophia wasn't going to admit it, but there was something comforting about being on the back of a huge fluffy Arcanine - and being this close to Oscar made her blush. However, as Skoll's pace sped up, she winced and gripped the dog's fur, trying not to pull too hard. The sunlight and jostling movements weren't easy on her headache or dizziness, but she kept a look out nonetheless, eyes narrowed. "Ita!" At Lacey's alarmed squeak, Sophia glanced around and gasped. [color=orchid]"What the...?"[/color] Near the contest hall, some shady-looking figures crouched by the bushes, seemingly hiding something in there. Sophia's stomach plummeted. [color=orchid]"Oh geez, they don't know when to give up."[/color] Oscar slows Skoll down as he glance back at Sophia and Lacey. He looks at where they were pointing and looking to see the same shady figures. Sensing that Sophia knows them and they are up to no good, Oscar has Skoll trot up to them. [color=green]”I hope you are being good Samaritans and helping out with a poor sense of fashion sense.”[/color] Skoll towers over the crouching figures and looks intimidating.
