After making sure both his student and I were healed, Gabe then nodded towards the axew, my last opponent, who stepped forwards. After that, he shouted "Final battle... BEGIN!" the axew caught me off guard with how quickly he pulled off his attack, and worse, to my surprise, it wasn't an ordinary scratch or bite attack, instead, some sort of light energy was put into his attack, which made it hurt that much more. "Gah!" I shouted from the pain. I then jumped back, hoping that he wouldn't attack again before I could at least hit him. I tried my old reliable, my usual form of attack against these dragons, my void whip on the thing, and, unfortunately, it didn't seem to really do all that much to him. [i]Great, now I'm a part of a hidden type disadvantage or something... I'm going to have to be lucky to get out of this one.[/i] I think as I look around for literally anything that could help me and wasn't in my bag... no matter how tough this fight gets, it would be downright stupid to waste my items here instead of in the actual fight where I probably won't just get healed afterwards if I lose. I then notice the axew rushing towards me again, and thankfully, I had enough time to get away from the attack, mainly by jumping off to my left. I then do something I've never done before, I used tackle. It was my only decent attacking option, and it did seem to hurt the axew more than void whip did at this point, however, that put me close to him, which was bad if I needed to continue avoiding his light slashes. I take another one, this time to my left cheek, and even though that wasn't much of a sensitive area, it still burned, and still hurt quite a bit. I manage to get away from the thing again and hit the thing with vine whip, as there seemed to be no need for me to use void whip, which, as expected, didn't do much, but at least didn't leave me close enough for him to attack. If I was going to continue using tackle, I'd have to use it sparingly... and unfortunately, that's the only way I could really damage him.

"Er... right! Some mother pyroar lost her son somewhere in the sunswept plains! Oh, um, fun fact, that's actually my old home." I say to the group, sounding somewhat cheerier than I usually do. Of course, this was shaping up to be... well, it wasn't really much of a BAD day, yet. Yeah, that scrafty attacked us earlier, but he was handled easily enough, and without anyone even fainting. That's always a plus. The fact that the sky didn't have a cloud in it, and the fact that it was warm, but not too warm only seemed to reassure the fact that today was a good day. [i]Hm... I wonder if I'll be able to keep this attitude... I kinda like it![/i] I think as I wait for the others to do something, after all, it probably still wouldn't really be wise to leave and do this mission on my own, as there were still many more of them than there were of us. Heck, it might have even been safe to say that I think nothing could possibly go wrong with today, it was that good of a day to me for some reason. I looked over to where that other keckleon went, and saw his shop, which appeared to be filled with pretty much the same items that were sold over at Bob and Ed's stall... yet... nobody was using the keckleon's stall for some odd reason. This might have been the reason for the keckleon's bored face, and might have also been the reason why he was just standing there, flipping a coin constantly, and not even a high-valued coin either, this one was only worth a single poke... a small detail that led me to believe that his stall was almost never filled with customers, as unfortunate as that was, I didn't really have any money to buy things, else, I might have actually supported his small stall... heck, it would certainly make this a better day for that keckleon.
