Leisy looked up with surprise at the blonde-haired boy who'd stepped in front of her, intercepting her path toward the back of the Pokemon Center. Had she heard him correctly? Leisy was so tired she couldn't be sure, but it was clear from the burning intensity in his eyes that the boy had challenged her to a battle. 

[color=gray]“Ah. I, um,”[/color] Leisy said, flustered now. How could she kindly explain that she was too tired to enter into a battle right now? [color=gray]“I just got back to town and was planning to finally turn in for the night. Morning,”[/color] she corrected, wanting to slap herself upside the head. She sounded like an idiot!

Leisy flashed the boy an awkward smile. [color=gray]“I'm really sorry and I'm probably violating some ancient Pokemon trainer covenant but I really am tired and would probably either pass out from exhaustion or overexertion during the battle. So,”[/color] she continued, pulling out her Pokedex now, [color=gray]“How about we register each other on our Pokedexes and when I get up I’ll ring you up—or whenever we’re both free—to have our battle?”[/color]

[hr]Leisy (HHG): 76+2

“Well, that’ll tell you how many people I’ve gotten in the past few weeks,” The man joked, rifling through his meager wares. He grunted as he withdrew a few things with one hand, his other going up to his pipe out of habit. “All good investments, I tell you,” the man said, raising a vial of blue liquid with a spray-top for Shanae to see. “Ice heal—very useful, especially around these parts.” An orange liquid within a standard health-restoration potion bottle. “Super potion. For all your non-beginner battle needs.” A blue Pokeball accentuated with two short, uniform strips of red. “Great ball. Better than a Pokeball.”

The man must have noticed Shanae’s eyes flick to the side in disinterest, because he geared himself up for a lecture, chest puffed and everything. “Now you see now, missy. These items may be expensive and not that useful at most times, but you’ll be glad you bought them when you could. Heck, you’d be hard-pressed to find some other shack with Great balls and Super potions on hand at the ready.”

[hr]Shanae (HHG): 29+1
