Saige peeked around Ninetails' neck to see Kitsune's face. "Yeah. I've lived around pokemon all my life. I don't really like to battle though... The idea of any of my pokemon getting hurt terrifies me. That's why I'd rather be a breeder," she said, satisfied. Ninetails turned his head to look at Kitsune as well, nudging his shoulder with his nose. His red eyes gazed at the boy with an eerie calmness.

Eventually, Eevee was struck by a bolt and was sent flying backwards. Shinra called him back quickly, then turned away.
"I...give up," he muttered. He knew Meowth wouldn't obey him.

Kitsune scooched away from Ninetails, nervous about being that close to it. It’s probably strong too, he thought. even if it doesn’t battle…Maybe if I got my Vulpix a Firestone, it would like me…
“I like fighting, but I don’t like losing,” he said, leaning forward to look at Saige. “I want to become a strong trainer…But…I just can’t. Look.” Kitsune stuffed his hand into a pocket and pulled out his single Pokeball. He released his Charmander.
It was pretty pitiful. It fell against him as soon as the light around it faded and coughed a bit of smoke. “Char…?” It looked up at him curiously, but as soon as it saw Ninetails, it pushed itself off Kitsune’s leg and staggered its way around his to hide.
Kitsune sighed, and put his arm around it. “Don’t worry…You’re not going to battle it. I just wanted to show you to the girl.” He picked up the Charmander and put it in his lap. Its tail flame was weaker than a candle’s.

Ross sighed quietly, "Kid, where you headin'?" He asked Shinra. His eyes were on him, but he could still see Kitsune, and the Charmander. Jolteon trotted back to Ross's side, sitting down on the ground beside him and licking one of his paws, and running it over his head.

"To Viridian," Shinra replied edgily. "What's it to you?"
He truly planned to stock up while there, and perhaps challenge the gym leader, but it seemed stupid to do so if he couldn't even beat this guy.
But I have to get stronger. I have to, or else...

Everyone's heading to Viridian, Kitsune thought. They both can protect me. This new guy's strong, too...Even if his pokemon didn't listen to him, at least it would defend itself...And drive other pokemon away, too...
"Where are you heading, Saige?" Kitsune asked, petting his Charmander softly. It curled up tightly against him, scared of everything but its trainer, and held its tail in its arms.
"Char..."
Kitsune looked down at it, and it looked up at him. "It's alright, I won't let them hurt you," he said, petting its nose softly.

Ninetails leaned over Kitsune's Charmander, licking it across the forehead with what sounded like a purr. Saige smiled, looking up at Ross. "Just out of these stupid woods," she said with a grin.

Both Kitsune and Charmander tensed as Ninetails leaned down, the latter wriggling weakly in an attempt to get away.
"Char!! Charchar!! Charmander!!" It squeezed its eyes shut, then...
"...Char?" It looked up at Ninetails after it felt the pokemon's tongue. "Charmander?"
Kitsune looked up at it, too. Wow...he's...friendly. Really friendly. He gave it a nervous smile, then looked down at Charmander. "It's all right, little guy...He won't hurt us. He doesn't battle."
"Char?"

Saige wrapped an arm around Ninetails' neck. "No, he's my knight.. He protects me.. But only when he has to. He's super-caring," she said, giving the pokemon a hug as it discontinued licking the Charmander and nudged Saige.

"Charchar!" Charmander started wiggling and smiling, laughing at Ninetails.
Kitsune's smile grew more natural. "I like him...I wish my Vulpix were more like him. Can I pet him?" he asked.

Saige grinned, nodding to Kitsune. "Yep. Make sure you scratch him behind the ears or he'll nag you until you do," she said, doing so as she leaned back to the ground. At least they're relaxing.

Mizuki hurried back through the Viridian City Gym, cradling her fainted Flareon gently in her arms.
"We were so close!" she whispered, thinking of each Pokemon the Gym Leader had knocked out.
Even her Ninetails, one of her most powerful Pokemon, had been knocked out.
She hated seeing Pokemon in pain...
Her small backpack bounced against her back as she jogged towards the Pokemon Center.

Kitsune grinned, and petted Ninetails in the side lightly. "Wow...I've always wanted a Ninetails, and I've never been this close to one before," he said.
"Char! CharCharmander!!" Charmander began to try to wiggle out of Kitsune's grip toward Ninetails. Kitsune looked down at the little orange lizard, and let him go cautiously.
He tumbled out of Kitsune lap clumsily, still tired from his earlier unsuccessful ventures, but recovered and made his way over to Ninetails, where he toughed the pokemon's leg softly, then began to rub his fur. "Charrrr..."

Saiged giggled as the Charmander pet another pokemon. The Ninetails lowered his head and looked Kitsune in the eyes. "He's studying you, Kitsune," Saige said, patting the Charmander on the head herself. Aww.. Poor thing.. It's tail fire is so dim!

Jolteon watched the interaction between Charmander and Ninetails with slight amusement, and began to question how well this kid treated his pokemon.
Ross sighed yet again. He didn't want to do it but... "Shinra, you're welcome to come with us. I'm taking them to Viridian."
