Adrian stood baffled for a moment, he hadn't realised he had been so intimidating that she'd rather run that try to fight. He expected her to fight, really, seeing as she was a strong pokemon. In a fleeting moment he felt a little proud to have scared her like that, but soon realised this wasn't the time to stroke his own ego. With the fear induced speed Umbre ran with, the leash quickly ran out, and Adrian braced himself for what was coming. He didn't want to jerk her back while she ran so fast, that might seriously injure her. So instead he stood ready to slowly apply force to restraining the leash. With her speed though, it would still be a most uncomfortable moment when Adrian held fast, the leash snapping tight and the collar effectively stopping her neck in place while her body wanted to go onwards.<br/><br/>A fall was most likely to ensue, and her disorientation was soon to follow. Adrian had dropped the towel, no longer directly needed it became more a nuisance than a help. He slowly walked over to her, pulling in the leash as he came closer, shortening her effective space. A dozen or so feet from her, he squatted. Hoping she wouldn't panic from his approach. His yes had changed, not angry any more. He was still determined, perhaps even still determined to punish her. Though now he felt it was his duty, not his anger, that required it.<br/><br/>"Umbre," He tried with a relatively calm voice, and waited till she calmed down a bit. Standing up, looking at her from his vantage point, he told her what she had to hear. "You're my first pokemon. I don't want to break my word to you, do you understand?"
