It seemed they had dismissed the sound she had heard, but she had an odd feeling, she couldn't explain it. She felt something was off about whatever it was that passed by, but she couldn't quite put her finger on it. She remained quiet for a while, trying to listen for the sound again.

Brent shot Celes a confused look at her response. [color=f7941d]"Uhm... I don't think you took that the right way. Sure, they'll probably be great friends, too, but I mean for battling partners. They're both on that same level of experience, I'd say."[/color] He said, trying to clarify what he had said before. He then became quiet as he listened to the forest around him. He could actually hear quite a few Pokemon around them. He checked his Pokegear.

[color=f7941d]"There's quite a variety of Pokemon around here, you know. Lots of younger bird, canine, and some bug Pokemon. Nothing too dangerous, so I wouldn't be too worried either."[/color] He said in reply to Devon's comment.

[@Ninian] [@Sketcher]
After a bit Michael and his team headed back inside, sitting down at one of the tables in the main room of the Pokemon Center. He overheard the conversation between Wye and Olivier, and mused to himself. [color=8dc73f]"Traveling in a group would be fun... but with such a veteran trainer, I feel like I wouldn't learn anything on my own... And I still want to catch a new Pokemon before I get to Vertigo, we wouldn't have much time to do that if we just tried booking it to the City..."[/color]

His Pokemon for once agreed. [color=gray]<Yeah, I wouldn't mind getting a new partner here, one combination just gets dull over time, no offense Turtiwg.>[/color] Said Glameow, the Turtwig nodding. [color=1a7b30]<Yeah, plus there is the chance we'd be caught out after dark... I'm not afraid of the dark, don't even think that! It's what hides in the dark...>[/color]

Nurse Joy emerged from the back room without Wye's Pokeball. [color=f49ac2]"The injuries weren't too severe, but it'll take me a bit to patch them up. After that, just some good old rest will have your Metagross back in fighting shape in no time!"[/color] She said cheerfully, heading back to finish up the job.

[h3][color=c4df9b]Sierra Hymn[/color][/h3][b][Vertigo City - Pokemon Center][/b]

After a bit, Sierra finally returned to the room she had left her Pokemon in. They were still sleeping where she had left them, but the sound of the door roused them as they jumped up at their trainer's return. [color=c4df9b]"Well, I'm back. The city is beautiful, and really big. I didn't even have time to look at everything! We'll all go out sight seeing tomorrow, then we can get to some practicing!"[/color] She said joyfully.

The two Pokemon beamed at the declaration. [color=f7941d]<Wow! I can't wait to see the city!>[/color] Said Fennekin, Deerling a little less enthusiastic. [color=f49ac2]<Big cities kind of meld together for me, but I guess each one has that touch that sets it apart. I'd really like to see now what Sierra has in store for us.>[/color] Replied the Deerling.

Seeing her two Pokemon happy brought a smile to her face again, and she turned and motioned to the door. [color=c4df9b]"Come on, let's go get some dinner, I'm starving, and I bet you two are too!"[/color] The two Pokemon followed her out of the room post haste.
