As the dust settled from her attack, Artemis was still standing. She panted hard, regaining her bresth as she clung to her spear for support. That was the first time she had used that attack in such a capacity and was bewildered to see both the Nightfires leader and the Half-Pints leader out cold on the floor. A bashful smile spread across her face as she looked to the trainer who was approaching her,<span class="fixed-color" style="color:rgb(84, 172, 210)">"I did it!! Did you see?!" </span><span class="fixed-color" style="color:rgb(209, 213, 216)">The anger in her blue eyes had subsided to be replaced by glee, <i>I really did it!</i></span><br/><br/><span class="fixed-color" style="color:rgb(209, 213, 216)">Her voice rang out with laughter as he pulled </span>her into a warm embrace and she cuddled against him. She heard his praising words and her smile only grew with recognition.<span class="fixed-color" style="color:rgb(84, 172, 210)">"It wasn't just me! You were great too!"</span><span class="fixed-color" style="color:rgb(209, 213, 216)">Their cuddle soon ended and Artemis could see Thomas' attention was drifting towards the remainder of the poision gang. Her happiness swiftly left her face to be replaced with a snarl. She knew her trainer wanted t</span>o help them but she wasn't sure if it was a wise idea... None the less she would be there to back him up should he get into difficulty as she followed close behind.<br/><br/>Clearly the Croagunk girl was upset as she tantrumed. Artemis folded her arms and raised an eyebrow, it was clear Dendra was all bark and no bite making the steel type's eyes roll.<i><span class="fixed-color" style="color:rgb(84, 172, 210)">"Arceus' sake..." </span></i><span class="fixed-color" style="color:rgb(209, 213, 216)">she mumbled, side stepping to avoid the angry swings. She found it hard to be sympathetic too her with the display she was showing and simply turned away. Another snarl leaving her lips as she saw her trainer crouched by the Houndour.</span><br/><br/><span class="fixed-color" style="color:rgb(84, 172, 210)">"What are you doing?!" </span><span class="fixed-color" style="color:rgb(209, 213, 216)">She cried as she dashed by his side and placed a firm hand on his shoulder, wanting to pull him away. </span><span class="fixed-color" style="color:rgb(84, 172, 210)">"She attacked us!! What's to say she won't again?!" </span><span class="fixed-color" style="color:rgb(209, 213, 216)">Surely healing this girl was a recipe for disaster. She let go of Thomas as he continued to work on helping her and gave a frustrated sigh. His aura was too kind for his own good. This was going to be hisndownfall, she knew it. He may have seen something in Kiara, but she wasn't as so easily swayed. Artemis sighed in frustration again and pinched the bridge of her nose, </span><span class="fixed-color" style="color:rgb(84, 172, 210)">"I've got a bad feeling about this...</span><span class="fixed-color" style="color:rgb(209, 213, 216)">" but it was clear her trainer had made up his mind as he lifted the injured girl into her arms. It was her duty to support him... even if she didn't agree with him.</span>
