Miranda nodded again. "My first, too. But I've been at it since early this morning." She had probably gotten onto route one at about ten, the ranger station at maybe nine. She had no idea what Ike it was now, so she didn even bother making a guess.
"Oh, Honey? Yeah, I got her at the ranger station." She remembered exactly how she felt earlier that day, and Miranda fidgeted her fingers back and forth. "I have a feeling I was just about as experienced as the ranger who helped me." She laughed slightly, smiling. She also remembered clearly about Rick and his Geodude.
Looking into her bag, Miranda spoke of another entirely new topic. "Hey, do you need a revive or anything? Both Yanma and Razel fainted, and you don't want to be without them, y'know?" It was a friendly gesture, nothing wrong with it. Miranda had potions and a revive, and she could tell that she was almost to the first city. There was a store there, of course.

She laughed at Miranda's description of the ranger. They had probably been new to the job. That amusement turned to confusion, then surprise as the trainer offered Nathara a revive.
"What? Oh, no, I'll be fine. I still have my revive from the Starter Kit. Thank you, though."
She shifted her position on the rock, and her hand started to toy absently with an empty pokeball. Those spheres were just small enough for sleight of hand, if she had ever learned such skills. On her free time, she had sometimes attempted to become proficient in this art, but Nathara had never progressed farther than the most basic tricks. Realizing that she had let her mind wander, the trainer searched for another topic of conversation.
"How's your first day been? There must be so many wild pokemon on Route One, and so many potential adventures."

Miranda smiled as she put the revive she had tossed back and forth in her hands back into her bag. "If you have your own then..." She trailed off. She spotted Nathara messing with the sphere. "Bored, eh?" Miranda tilted her head. She could be boring, or so her neighbor said. But that was a little boy about the age of ten.
"Pretty good, since I've caught three Pokemon." Miranda was all for that. She wod catch more, maybe just one, so she was prepared for the next town, and then she could face the gym. She could train Hiney as she dis that, along with Dizzy, Desiree, and maybe even Splash.
But that would be a little hard. Considering the fact that she needed an exp. Share. But if Splash evolved into Gyrados...! That would be an amazing feat to accomplish! Miranda sighed. What she had to do to get that far.

Bored? What makes her think that? Following the trainer's gaze, Nathara found herself looking at the empty pokeball. Hastily stowing it way, she gave Miranda an apologetic look. She had mistaken the nervous habit for one of boredom.
"Oh, sorry."
Three pokemon, that was rather impressive for someone on their first day as a trainer. Compared to her, Nathara had barely began, having only caught one herself.
"You can't be doing too bad, then. It's just Razel, Yanma, and I so far. I'm hoping that we'll become a good team."

Miranda smirked. "Naw, I'm a little weird one. Don't mind me." She sensed the air getting a little awkward, and she thought about Nathara's response.
"I guess. But again, I've been at it all day." She smiled. "I bet you'll get more." Miranda thought abou how well the trainer's pokemon had battled. "They're pretty strong, I bet you WILL make a good team."
She looked over the water, smiling to herself. This whole region was going to be conquered by her, hopefully, someday. Miranda toted with her braid, fidgeting herself. She wouldn't blame Nathara if she yelled at her. Smirking, she dropped her hand before that was possible.

Nathara's ears burned, and she was suddenly quite grateful for her long hair. What had she done to deserve such complements? All she had done was lose a battle and act shy. Despite these questions, a warm feeling seeped into her stomach, like if she had eaten a large quantity of hot soup. She gave a meek smile.
"Thank you."
As Miranda started to fidget with her hair, she realized that the other trainer was just as nervous as herself. Seeking to change the topic, she spoke up again.
"I'm sorry if this is too personal...but what caused you to become a trainer?"

Miranda looked back to Nathara as she replied with the first two words. She didn't say anything, and barely acknowledged it, being the kind of person she was, but she had showen that she had heard.
Miranda tilted her head at the change of subject. "Well, my sister started a journey, and she got as far as the first town and gave up. I guess I wanted to show my family that I can do better." Miranda hadn't really known what she was going to say until she said it. But the words had come out, and she had said them.
"What about you?" She was interested to hear anything that anyone would say, as she was normally a very social person, but she had to get to know the person first. So, she urged Nathara to go on. Nothing was wrong about getting to know someone. Especially since they had both just started their adventures.
She didn't look over the water of fidget this time. Nathara had her full attention. Whether she liked it or not.

Nathara shrunk under the full attention of the other trainer. What had she been expecting, though? If you ask someone a question like that, you're supposed to answer it yourself. Miranda's sudden interest brought back her shyness in full-force.
"Well, my siblings all went on journeys of their own. The few that kept in touch described how amazing the experience was. As I read more about it, I suppose that adventure started to appeal to me more than working at the Daycare."
Her hands started to fidget again, and she looked at a spot on the ground a few feet in front of her. She didn't know why, but Nathara didn't like sharing personal information like that.

Miranda nodded once more. "You worked at the daycare?" She loved to watch pokemon grow, and she started to beam. "Thats cool!" She smiled. "I bet you met TONS of Pokemon!"
Miranda paused as she spotted the sun. It had moved quite a distance since she had stopped at the pond. She didn't want to interrupt Nathara, but she spoke anyway. "I should be going soon..." She felt slightly bad, so she stayed rooted to the spot, saying nothing.
Miranda smiled then. "Do you have a pokegear? I could add you." She didn't mention that the only ones on it were family, as she had yet to meet another trainer. That would just embarrass her. Of course. Miranda kept the smile on her face, though, because she didn't want to appear sad or anything of the sort. She just wanted to get to town before nighttime.

Nathara appreciated the sudden change of conversation to the Daycare. It was something she rather enjoyed talking about. The trainer was just about to reply when Miranda spoke again, saying that she should be leaving soon. Glancing up at the sun, she realized how much time had passed.
"I'm so sorry! I didn't mean to take any of your time! Yeah, I have a pokegear. At least, I think I do..."
Nathara fished around in her bag for a few seconds, and she eventually found the tool. She pulled it out, and searched for her number. She had never used this thing before, so the interface was a little strange. Luckily, she was able to find the information she wanted.
"Here it is."
She slowly read off the number combination.

Miranda slowly but surely copied he numbers onto her own. She del slightly bad about being so abrupt, but she flicked through hers till she got to her own number.
She slowly read her own numbers off, making sure she gave the correct order. She would feel terrible if she messed up. Miranda flashed a smile before puttig the pokegear back on her belt before standing up, grabbing her bag. She quickly ran through her pokemon in her mind, taking to account which ones she could use if needed.
Desiree was fine, Dizzy fainted, Splash was... Well, Splash, and Honey was exhausted. So that really left Desiree. Bu she could make do.
Miranda didn't start walking yet, she knew that would be impolite. "If you need anything, feel free to call." She said. She let Desiree out of her ball to accompany her, and made sure she left nothig behind. She was drier than before, though wet. She pulled out a small towel, rubbing her face and legs.
She studied her surroundings one more time before adding: "I have potions or anything if you need them, really." She insisted, though she half-expected Nathara to walk away out of annoyance.

Nathara was careful to accurately copy the numbers that the other trainer read out. It would he terribly embarrassing if she called the wrong number. However, chances were that she would never use the pokegear for anything more than the occasional call home.
She stood, placing the item back into her bag and quickly trying to organize the mess she had made while finding it. She really did need to be more careful. Watching as Miranda released her oddish and prepared to leave, she wondered if this new acquaintance would bother staying in touch. Really, she didn't make a good friend, so why bother?
Only time will tell, I suppose.
"I will, and no, I'm fine. Have a safe journey, and good luck."
With that, she turned and slowly walked back towards the group of trees she had come from, hoping that this didn't appear rude to the other trainer.
(Closing post for me?)

(I think-- unless she shall come back?)
Miranda started off again, with a new determination gleaming in her eyes. She was ready to face whatever was between her and the next town. Maybe she could catch one more pokemon before then. She could tell that she needed to hurry; she jogged almost, her eyes darting, looking around all the while.
Desiree hurried and waddled to keep up, her steps much smaller than Miranda's, making her have to work harder to keep up.
Miranda slowed her pace, seeing Desiree like that. She pulled out a map, trying to figure out how much farther she had to go to get to town. She had a little ways. Putting it away again, Miranda resumed a trot, though a bit slower than before.

Due to the girl's rush, it was very possible that she could miss the pokemon that was going about it's own business. Hidden mostly in the undergrowth, the only thing visible to the eye was it's exceedingly long, spiral blue tail with white fluff at the end.
The feline was busy stalking the bushes for any Rattata that could be hidden there. It was almost lunch time after all and this cat was on the prowl. It paid no mind to the Miranda, though she was getting prissy with the amount of noise the human was making. How was she to hunt when the stupid girl scared off all the pray with her elephant sounding feet?

As Miranda continued to jog, she spotted a long, spiral tail. She slowed down, and then stopped alltogether, retracing her steps back to the tail. Desiree followed, happy to stop for a minute.
<Hello.> Desiree waddled over, happy to have company. <Who are you?> The Grass pokemon took no notice that the Glameow was most likely hunting.
Miranda got down on her knees, looking at the bush and tail. To anyone walking by, it might look a little weird, but that was her.
"Desiree, don't go too close. You don't know what that is." Miranda said, eyeing her. Desiree didn't take this very well.
<I can do what I want!> She retorted. The small pokemon waddled into the bush, looking around. Then she understood why Miranda had wanted he to stay. She was all alone in a bush with that pokemon, and she would have to struggle to get out again.
::Oddish::

The Glameow looked up when the elephant feet stomping human stopped. She stood completely still, hoping they they would resume their travels and leave it alone but no such luck. A rustling ahead of her told it they were coming to her and not away.
Sighing, the cat pokemon turned and began leaving. She had best find a new hunting ground now seeing how some people can't understand that some pokemon liked peace and quiet.
::glameow:: is leaving. Stop it?

Seeing the Glameow try to leave, Desiree rushed in front of it. <Hey, what's the matter?> She asked. She offered a little grin, and looked the cat-like pokemon straight in the eye. <You can't say hello?>
Sighing, Miranda didn't dare move. She didn't want to be scratched by the Glameow.
Desiree didn't mean to be a pest, at least, kind of tried. She didnt want to continue running for a while, and she wanted someone to join them at least for a little while. <Im Desiree!> She burst out into a greeting.

Pkmn encounter ! Glameow was hoping that the two would take the hint and leave her alone to hunt, but now in an unfortunate turn of events this weed was actually trying to start conversation with her. Baring her teeth in a hiss, the feline replied to the plant's question. <Why should I say hello to two pests?> She retorted, fur on her back standing up.
Though Desiree had good intentions, the cat was in no mood to banter or play around - she was starving and had her hungry stomach to feed. Ignoring the grass-type's introduction, she turned and attempted to run off a different way.
Glameow is trying to run away - again.

(It was Desiree, not Honey. ^^)
Desiree looked a little downtrodden. <Pest?> She raced to where Glamoew was trying to leave. <You seem hungry, we could get you food!> Desiree looked to Miranda, who nodded.
"Of course." She smiled gratefully to Desiree, who just waddled back to her, waitin to see the Glameow's choice.
Miranda hadn't expected the cat to be so angry and upset, but she couldn't assume anything. She pulled out a treat she had in her pocket, and got down on her knees, and put it on her outstretched palm.
