[color=8493ca]"Wow, here I was thinking that celebrities all knew each other. That, ma'am, was one of the biggest jokes I've had the misfortune of dealing with as a gym leader."[/color] Ray said with a sigh. [color=8493ca]"As for why he was antagonizing those kids, they had a run in with the people that he claims to be 'hunting.' So, as normal people do, he decided it was a good idea to pester them and threaten them for information that he already has. Obviously that wouldn't do, so I stepped in and dealt with it as is my duty as a gym leader."[/color] He continued, the topic tiring him slightly.

[color=8493ca]"Now, it was nice to meet you Mrs. Hollow...but I've got someone I need to talk to and a nap that needs to be taken."[/color] Ray said, finishing the statement with telepathy to prevent his yawn from interrupting him. With that he teleported off, chair and all.

Now that he was outside of town, Rheese stopped to catch his breath. His hand rested on his cracked rib, it was good that the damage had been pretty minor...else he'd still be stuck in the hospital. The run had definitely helped with the feeling of despair that Ray's words had left him with. 

If he was going to be traveling with the others he'd have to get off of his ass and work towards his training. For now, his focus would have to be on getting a third Pokemon. Something that could give him an edge against the normal types the gym used, maybe a steel or ghost type? Would either of those even be available here?

As he wandered down the path, he noticed a small glint in the sky, and it seemed to be closing fast. It looked like some kind of rock or a meteor about the size of a kickball. Even as Rheese attempted to move to either side, the object homed in on his current location. This wasn't exactly something he expected, but given the way it was behaving, could it be a Pokemon?
