Sophia straightened up, looking in the direction of the Pokecentre for any sign of Kero. Her anxiety grew with each passing moment. He shouldn't have been gone that long. Had the Pokemon's conditions worsened? Her stomach clenched painfully again, but she had nothing left to throw up.

[color=orchid]"Rheese... Watch her,"[/color] she said before leaving the group, heading down the path to the Pokecentre. Kero was the last person she wanted to face right now, but she had to make sure the Pokemon were alright. It was her fault they'd ended up this badly hurt, after all. Despite her exhaustion, her pace sped up.

She burst in, nearly collapsing, leaning against the wall. Kero wasn't in the lobby... was that a good or bad thing? The nurse, as well as the person she'd been talking to, started at the sight of her. Staggering towards the desk, Sophia told the story in a breathless, barely coherent rush.

The nurse regarded her with wariness. [color=pink]"That's not what I was told..."[/color]

"She's telling the truth," the other person at the desk insisted. "It's not like he said. Those Pokemon weren't being mistreated. They just flipped out. I saw what happened. Neither trainer meant for it to get that out of hand."

"I don't care!" somebody else shouted. "Idiots, both of them. Some people shouldn't be allowed to have anything to do with Pokemon. Why would anyone make up something like that?" She turned and glared at Sophia, who flinched away. "You hear me?"

Sophia struggled to look the furious woman in the eye. What had Kero said? [color=orchid]"The... The other trainer... It wasn't her fault..."[/color] she panted.

"It really wasn't," the other witness backed Sophia up, and continued to explain the situation to Nurse Joy. Finally, the nurse's expression softened, and after hesitating for a moment, she placed five Pokeballs on the desk.

[color=orchid]"They're alright?"[/color] Sophia gripped onto the edge of the counter, before relaxing slightly as the nurse reassured her they'd be fine.

[color=pink]"The other girl... How is she?"[/color] the nurse asked. [color=pink]"I'll call for help."[/color]

[color=orchid]"She... She's going to be ok. Somebody already did,"[/color] Sophia explained. She took the Pokeballs, and said something else people almost never heard from her. [color=orchid]"Thank you... Thank you so, so much."[/color]

Leaving before Kero could reappear, she rushed back to the group. Once she reached the unconscious girl's side, all five Pokemon popped out. The three who belonged to the girl crowded around her. Gothita blinked and stared around, still trembling with shock. Purrloin crouched down low in a gesture of guilt.

The police would probably get involved... Had Kero and the angry woman in the Pokecentre been right? Should she even be on this journey? Pokemon had been her friends growing up, and yet she'd gone along with the way they'd been acting just now, with no thought to the consequences... She knelt down in front of the girl and the group of Pokemon, shoulders hunched. [color=orchid]"I'm sorry... I'm sorry, I'm sorry, all of you, I'm sorry, I really am sorry..."[/color]

She could only pray to Arceus that this girl wouldn't get into trouble, and that if her own Pokemon got taken, they'd go to a better trainer.
