The water, though not meant to be hurtful, got mostly Miranda compared to Dizzy, Desiree, and Honey. She wasn't soaked, but it was enough water to get in her bag, and get her hair wet. She squealed, but it was a cross of a squeal and a shriek.
Honey smiled to the Magicarp. <She doesn't like water. Can you tell?> She didn't say it sarcastically, she meant it in a funny way. Hun snickered as Desiree pretended to be all wet and screech. Dizzy and Honey laughed, who then in turn looked to the Magicarp.
Miranda, meanwhile, had gotten over it, though she still looked like she had just taken a shower. She twisted her hair into two braids quickly with ponytails she had on her wrists. Her hair would be wavy when she took them out, but it was better than having her long wet hair flipping all over the place.

Magikarp laughed when she saw that she'd gotten her guests drenched. <Hahaha. How can anyone hate the water?> Replied the carp, dunking herself beneath the surface to feel the smooth, cool waves wash over her skin. It felt so good in the summer heat to be enveloped in the water.
She surfaced again and splashed the girl and pokemon again, laughing all the while. <Swim with me! The water feels great!> Pleaded the fish, surfacing and resurfacing enthusiastically. Water's best when shared, she believed.

Dizzy and Desiree hesitated, Dizzy clinging to Miranda's leg, until he realized it was wet. He then just moved close to her side. Honey, on the other hand, flew right over, though not sure how she would swim. She was a bug type, after all. In the end, she ended up hovering over the water, watching the carp Pokemon.
Miranda frowned. She was already wet, and had to walk like that already. She looked to the Magicarp, then to Honey, and finally to Dizzy and Desiree. "If you guys want a quick dip, go ahead. But I'm not going in there. It proves no point for me since I'm already wet."
Dizzy stayed at her side, while Desiree walked slowly over to where Honey was. She was a grass-type, which made her figure that no harm could come to her. She cautiously stuck a foot in the water, letting it cool her down.
Miranda looked to the Magicarp again. Where would other water pokemon be? It would be nice to have a water pokemon on her team. There had been some pokemon drinking water before, but they left. She put down her bag on a rock and walked closer to where Desiree, Honey, and the Magicarp were. Dizzy tottered after her, finding his own rock to sit on.

Magikarp splashed around excitedly when Desiree placed her foot inside the water, splashing some at her. <Come on, don't be shy~ I don't bite!> Said the fish happily, jumping into the air playfully and, as he descended back down, splashing yet more water out of the pond.
He looked up and stared at the human, tilting his head a bit. <Is there something wrong? You seem to be in a lot of thought.> He inquired, quieting down to listen to the human's explanation - if she gave one, that is.

Miranda shook her head. "Naw." She didn't have to tell the Magicarp that. She looked to Honey, who was still hovering overhead of Magicarp. The bee pokemon was trying to dip a wing in the water, but then thought the best of it, and continued to fly overhead.
Desiree jumped back from the splash, startled. <U-Uh, I don't really know how to swim.> Sure, she could go up to her mouth, but that was where she would start freaking out, if she had to close her mouth, or hold her breath. So, she put both her feet in the water and stayed there, though she smiled, trying to make the Magicarp happy.
Dizzy got off of his rock, looking over the surface of the crystal clear water. He waddled a little closer, and then dipped the tip of his toe in the water and jerked back. It was cold! ::Spinda::

Magikarp tilted his head a bit at Miranda's blunt response. <You sure? ... Oh well.> Replied the fish, a tad dissapointed that the human decided not to share her feelings with him. Sighing, he watched her pokemon attempt to get into the water. <That's good!> Proclaimed the fish, congratulating the plant on her successful venture into the water.
He looked to be getting a tad bored, however, and gave another sigh. <Eh... what do you guys say to a battle? I want to have some fun.> Offered Magikarp, doing a jump in the water.
::magikarp:: Magikarp challenges you!

Miranda smiled. That was much better. "Alright, guys, out of the water!" She ordered. Dizzy ran back to Miranda's leg, while Honey spun near her head. Desiree followed. "Desiree, why don't you try?" Desiree moved closer, hedging the distance between her and the fish pokemon.
"Ok, Desiree, use Absorb on Magikarp!" She commanded. She grass type move should be super-effective. She had decided. Vines shot out at the fish, aiming to do damage. Desiree was pretty much healed already.

It was indeed a beautiful day. The summer heat brought a vibrancy to the forest that was wonderful to behold. The fact that this was Nathara's first journey in her life as a pokemon trainer added to the excitement.
She had been traveling uneventfully with Razel by her side for a good while when she stumbled upon a most interesting scene.
In a small forest clearing there was a pond. Standing by the water was a girl about the same age as herself, sopping wet and participating in what looked like a pokemon battle between an oddish and a magicarp.
I hope she doesn't mind if we watch.
She stayed a little ways away from the battle, so she could observe without drawing too much attention. Razel watched too, just as interested in the action as his trainer.

Magikarp gave a surprised cry when he felt the Oddish's vines enrobing his orange flesh. The feeling of the green tentacles absorbing energy out of his skin was horrifying to the fish, who hadn't battled against many pokemon being as young as he was. His health fell like an iron weight, leaving him breathless and dizzy even on the first turn - but he still had a little fight in him. He put all of his energy into his next attack - Splash. The fish fiercely played in the water with all his might.
::magikarp:: Magikarp used Splash, hehehe

Miranda stiffled a laugh. The only thing that the Magikarp's--she couldn't bear to say attack--had done was get one of Desiree's leaves wet. "Desiree!" She yelled. "Use absorb one more time!" She couldn't really see how the fish could counter, but it could dodge.
Long vines came from Desiree again, trying to grab onto the Magikarp. Desiree was pleased with herself, even though it was a Magikarp she was proud she was beating. ::Oddish::

Nathara felt a burst of pity mixed with amusement. It was rather funny how helpless that magicarp was, but he couldn't help but feel bad for it. When this trainer won, would she even bother catching this pokemon? Were all magicarp this useless?
Now that she thought about it, she didn't know much about this particular pokemon. She pulled out her pokedex and scanned the red fish, listening to the given information until she found what she was looking for.
Evolves into Gyarados
This information was accompanied by a picture of a large, fierce-looking fish pokemon.
Interesting. How can you possibly level it up though?
It didn't matter too much, considering that she wasn't the one battling the magicarp.

Too exhausted to dodge the coming vines, the orange fish fell to the Oddish's type advantage and fierce absorbing skills. Feeling the last of his energy get sucked out of him, the Magikarp flipped over in the water and lay there, unconscious and looking as if he were dead.
::magikarp:: Magikarp has fainted. Desiree gains 1 level. Attempt a capture or move on?

Though happy, Miranda also didn't feel like it was fair to the fish that it only knew Splash. Without waiting to see Desiree look behind the group, she grabbed a Net Ball from her bag and threw it at the Magikarp. She would train it to become a great Magikarp, maybe even a Gyrados. The only question was how. She could probably find an Exp. Share at a Pokemart. Hopefully even the one nearby at the next town. Either way, the ball swallowed up the pokemon in a bright light.
What she didn't know, was that Desiree had spotted someone in the trees behind them. It seemed to be someone with a Pokemon, and Oddish was rearing for a battle, having defeated the Magikarp. Was it... Maybe a Sneasel, or something like that. Without informing Miranda, Desiree waddled off, trying to figure out who it was. ::Oddish::

Having witnessed the admittedly disappointing end to the battle, Nathara had turned to walk away when the oddish that had participated in the challenge came up to her, walking with a distinct waddle.
Razel gave his trainer an amused look, obviously finding her shyness funny.
<Hello. My name's Razel.>
He greeted the grass pokemon with the mischievous smile typical of his kind.
"And I'm Nathara."
Resigned to the fact that she must now introduce herself to and make conversation with this pokemon's trainer, she waited with a slight sense of anxiety for the pokeball to click shut or reopen.

The Magikarp was sucked into the pokeball in a flash of red, and as the sphere consumed the form it closed and descended to the ground. Then the ball began to roll as the fish considered staying with this new trainer. Well, she was nice just for trying to catch him. He didn't know any other moves than splash, even though he was a pretty high level, and he'd fainted in just two turns against Oddish. Then he figured that he should simply take this chance and try his best for her.
The pokeball stopped rolling and emitted a high-pitched noise signalling a successful capture.
You caught a Magikarp!

Some say that they wouldn't be happy with this catch. Bt Miranda was. She would train the Magikarp to become a Gyrados, and one of the best there will ever be. So, she went to pick up the ball, happily, mind you, though she was still wet.
She laughed. "How about the name Splash?" She could jsut imagine him when he becomes a Gyrados, and named Splash. Either way, once she out the ball on her belt, returning Dizzy and Honey into their pokeballs, she noticed that Desiree was gone. She looked behind her, and spotted her pokemon looking at a trainer.
She looked about her age, so she rushed back over. "Desiree! What did I tell you? Don't run off!" She scooped her up in her arms. "Hello." She greeted. She put Desiree back down, looking to Nathara and Razel.
Desiree wasted no time in walking over to Razel again. <Im Desiree!> She was a little hyper, and was happy to see another pokemon.
Miranda smiled at Desiree. "Who might you be?" She questioned he trainer. Had she witnessed the battle? She didn't say it out loud, not willing it call it a battle. Ah well. She still caught it.

Nathara smiled at the long-haired teen.
"Hello, my name's Nathara."
She had never much enjoyed meeting new people, preferring the company of a pokemon over that of a human. However, she couldn't leave now.
Over with the two pokemon, Razel seemed happy to have a non-human to talk to.
<Hello Desiree. What's your trainer like?>

[/i] Nathara, she would remember that.[/i] "Did you just start your journey?" She was completely oblivious to the fact that she didn't seem very social. She then changed the subject, one she wanted to know more about. "Do you know where I could get an Exp. Share?" She could use it with Splash. Miranda smiled, twirling onenofnher braids around her finger.
Desiree smiled. <Like any other trainer, I guess. She just caught me.> She was being honest, sonshe couldn't really answer that question. Desiree was a nice pokemon, but she truly didnt know Miranda all that well yet.

"Yes, this is my first day. I just received Razel from the Lab this morning. As for an Exp. Share, I'm not sure where you can get them. It's for your magicarp, right?"
Nathara wanted to help, but she wasn't sure about what the shops in each city sold. In preparation for becoming a trainer, she had focused solely on learning about pokemon. Maybe that had been a mistake.
"By the way, what's your name?"
<I don't know mine too well either.>
He wasn't sure what else to say. For how happy he was to have the chance to talk to Desiree, he didn't have a whole lot to talk about.

Miranda then realized that Nathara had been watching. "You saw?" Miranda did look a little weird, soaking wet, looking as if she caught a pokemon, since she had that look on her face. "Well, yeah. I don't see how else I could train it. I just felt bad for it." She smiled. "Im Miranda. Miranda Sky. Don't mind my... Wetness. Splash, well, splashed me before i caught him."
Desiree smiled. <Does your trainer have any other pokemon? Miranda does. She has me, Honey, Dizzy, and Splash.> Making conversation wasn't hard for her. It really came with her bubbly personality. She watched Mkranda and Nathara out of the corner of her eye, trying to juggle two conversations.
