That all-too-familiar fire that Miki always felt whenever Missy was within the same area code as she started to swell and build, going from an ill-mannered, sparking-out-of-control house fire into a borderline disaster that was waiting to happen. The very thought of Missy always seemed to get under her perfect skin (especially when compared to the depressing ice queen), but cooler heads had to prevail. Still, the disrespect that her former Pokemon League rival was showing for her was enough to get her to lose every last bit of the cool that she was trying to keep.

Yeah, fuck it. Miki Park was never known for her ability to keep calm, not when it came to [i]her[/i].

For a moment, as the Lava Queen stared down her former rival and the person who somehow always kept finding ways to blame her for the same incident that was obviously the Ice Queen's fault. Only someone like Melissa Elliot could refuse to take the blame for costing [i]Miki[/i] the Indigo League championship. How that blonde bimbo could think otherwise was a fantastic showing of her ego. [color=b22222]"Don't play games with me, Missy! You damn well remember me!"[/color] She raged, stepping closer to the blonde, her fist tightening as she was resisting the urge (and failing) to punch that smirk right off of Melissa's face. [color=b22222]"You clearly need a reminder!"[/color] 

Without hesitation, Mika reached to her waist, grabbing a Pokeball that was the first one on the left. [color=b22222]"Blitz come out!"[/color] She shouted as the ball opened, and red light took form to her left as Blitz, a shiny Luxray and arguably the strongest in her team. [color=b22222]"Call out your strongest and let's see if you still don't remember me!"[/color] 

Blitz roared, seemingly echoing his owner's resolve. [/indent][/indent][/color]
