Before he even really had a chance to reply to what Naomi said, Jake had to move as the woman lost her balance.  He was just in time to catch her, and his hand landed somewhere he would have to apologize for later.  He caught Naomi as she fell toward him by moving close and getting in the way of her fall.  Wrapping his arms around her to cradle her… and placing one of his hand, by mistake of course, in the right position to get a very good grope of her breast.<br/><br/>At least he had finished loading the TM into Ivysaur’s head before Naomi stumbled.  Forcing him to drop the pokeball, pokedex, and expended TM.<br/><br/>It took him a squeeze or two to realize what exactly he was grabbing and immediately quickly helped her back to her feet and got his hands off her… but not before it was hard to tell if the third or fourth grope was on purpose.<span style="color: #00b300">“Sorry!  That was an accident!  I didn’t mean to…”</span>He stammered out as he backed up after letting go from the woman.  After a long moment of blushing he reached over and retrieved his now healed pokemon.<br/><br/><span style="color: #00b300">“A… Anyway…  Maybe a little selfish.  But it is a good idea.  But not a feasible one.  It would take a lot of time to train something like that…”</span>as he spoke the blush didn’t leave his cheeks.  Yeah, he couldn’t forget that feel in his hand.  Not really comparable to Aishas, but still very nice.  He wouldn’t let those thoughts show on his face at all.<span style="color: #00b300">“I would need to find something to get him Synthesis though.  Leach seed is more reliable.”</span><br/><br/>As he spoke he retrieved everything he dropped and put it back where it belonged.  It was about at that time that the match between Eleyna and Aisha ended and the commotion started.  It was hard not to listen to every word.  Everything else had gone quiet.  Immediately the lightheartedness of the minutes before was wiped from his face as he listened to the supposed girl that was one of the top trainers of this region.  Those words immediately got a glare from Jake.  It sounded like what he had heard his own father was like before his mother smacked some sense into him.  Like what Jake refused to be.<br/><br/><span style="color: #00b300">“This is going to be trouble.”</span>Jake told Naomi in time to see Eleyna accept and come rushing up to the healing stations.  He stayed quiet for a moment as she spoke, looking at them both.  He didn’t listen to her.<span style="color: #00b300">“This is a stupid move.”</span>Jake tried to advice, but of course Eleyna didn’t listen.  Jake sighed as he looked over at Naomi.<span style="color: #00b300">“I’ve got to go watch this.  We both should to support our friend.  You coming?”</span><br/><br/>After that Jake found his way down the hill he pushed his way to the front of the crowd.  To get the best view of the coming fight.  He watched silently for most of the fight, only cheering when it looked like each of her pokemon were in a pinch.  Even though he knew she was going to lose as soon as he saw the enemy’s pokemon.  And of course Eleyna lost and the enemy trainer spoke up and made the self-centered speech showing her arrogance.  Then came Eleyna’s response, and it got a smile from Jake and then it was over.<br/><br/>After the fight, He couldn't help but think about her challenge to the other trainer.  If they kept training and travelling together then they would all likely end up facing trainers like the one that Eleyna faced.  Would his pokemon be strong enough?   After watching that fight, he knew he would have likely lost as well.  his were not strong enough yet.  Eve definitely not.  she had barely wone the fight before, and only because her and Saur worked well together.  But he had a way to make eve stronger in his pack... should he use it?<br/><br/>Those thoughts ended when he watched Eleyna make her way through the crowd towards the healing stations on the hill.  Of course he couldn’t get to Eleyna to go with her.  The crowd got too packed to get to them.  But he did see Aisha who had finished her fight and waved at her.  Making his way over to her.<span style="color: #00b300">“Hey.  Good Fight Aisha.  Come on, lets go get your pokemon healed!  Naomi is helping run the machines.”</span>With that he offered his hand to Aisha to lead her up to where Naomi, and now Eleyna were.<br/><br/>He got up there in time to hear the end of the women’s discussion.  About going south.<span style="color: #00b300">“Hey Eleyna.  You want some friends to travel with you into the unknown?”</span><div class="messageTextEndMarker"> </div>
