Great, now the slacker girl was preaching at her too. Sophia huffed. [color=orchid]"It's Sophia. And yeah, I know about Sabrina. She's pretty well-known in Unova."[/color] In recent years, the Kanto gym leader had made her mark on Unova due to her roles in a few movies. As much as Sophia admired and respected powerful psychics, though, she couldn't deny that the slacker had a point. [color=orchid]"I-Ive got to get stronger, though,"[/color] she said. She knew Nyxx was talking about finding a balance rather than contradicting Oscar, but still, she had to make sure people knew where she was coming from. [color=orchid]"I have to be who certain people want me to be."[/color]

Leaning back in exhaustion, she looked at Oscar again. After what had happened, after what Lan had told them, they couldn't just continue as if nothing had happened. [color=orchid]"Count me in,"[/color] she said. [color=orchid]"And..."[/color] She gave a small smile, her tone much, much gentler. [color=orchid]"You don't have to be sorry. I don't blame you."[/color]

In a flash of light, Gothita reappeared, climbing onto Sophia's lap. The mud didn't seem to bother her, at least not as much as seeing Sophia and Oscar so distressed. [color=orchid]"Hey. Sorry about the mud,"[/color] Sophia said, every trace of harshness melting away. [color=orchid]"And we're going to be ok."[/color]

Were things going to be ok, though? This adventure was already turning out nothing like she'd expected.

Amber felt the corners of her mouth crease with concern. [color=chocolate]"Just going to say, be careful, both of you."[/color] It went without saying. Considering their stories, their reasons were perfectly understandable, but they were planning to go up against the team that had nearly obliterated the entire group with just one Pokemon attack.

In no way was this something that could be ignored, though. Especially after that maniac's threat. And they all did have to become capable of at least defending themselves.

[color=chocolate]"Although..."[/color] Her face was solemn as she looked from Oscar to Sophia. [color=chocolate]"You have my support."[/color]
