<div class="floatleft">(http://i1087.photobucket.com/albums/j480/Erion2451/normal_flame_surfer_girl.jpg)</div><strong>Name:</strong>Rae Ann Aquillus (http://elliquiy.com/forums/index.php?topic=144659.msg7092097#msg7092097)<br/><strong>Location:</strong>Seastorm Ferry, Upper Deck<br/><strong>Current Pokemon:</strong>Quagsire (Nami), Tentacool.<br/><hr/><br/>Even though Rae had tried to anticipate the Wobbuffet waking after the first simultaneous attack, she hadn't counted on it countering so quickly.  After Chimchar's valiant defense of the blue Pichu, Rae simply stared at the unknown blonde trainer with a bit of awe.  The trainer and Pokemon had reacted, or more than likely anticipated, more efficiently than she could.  After a moment, the corners of her mouth turned up into a smile.  She may be a gym leader, but there was still quite a bit for her and her Pokemon to learn.<br/><br/>Luckily for the other female trainer, the Thundershock from her Sparkles was able to finish off the blue putty-looking Pokemon.  Before following the girl into the cabin Rae paused to comment to the blonde haired trainer.<strong>"Nice job.  Take care of your Chimchar, we'll take it from here."</strong><br/><br/>With that she nodded to Nami and headed into the cabin where the mastermind was supposedly holding the captives.<br/><br/>Rae didn't feel nervous or excited, just focused.  The stakes were too high to let emotions get in the way and anyone who could train a Pokemon well enough that it didn't need commands to react to Pokemon and trainer's actions was likely a very dangerous individual.  She just hoped that the other trainer's Glaceon had better attacks than Thundershock or they'd both be in serious trouble.<br/><br/>What she found inside wasn't what she expected.  The hostages were safe but they were fast asleep and Rae could only guess that it was because of the chanting, lethargic Pokemon.  It only took a moment to discover what was going on.  They were stealing Pokemon!<br/><br/>The woman's comment about the Wobbuffet, Rae could only assume that had been the Pokemon they'd just battled, irritated Rae.  That Pokemon had defeated a dozen Pokemon single-handed and this woman was acting like it had failed.  A glance from her peripheral was given to the other trainer, the one with the blue Pichu, and Rae wondered if they would have to work together again to free the sleeping hostages.
