<div align="center"><strong>Name:</strong> Vanessa Schroeder<br/><strong>Location:</strong> The Classroom<br/><strong>Target:</strong> Anyone in the classroom</div><br/><em>The door slammed open as Vanessa stormed in, head held high as fierce emerald eyes scanning the room as she stepped behind the desk.  The Garchomp stepped in afterward, carefully closing the door behind himself before taking a slow seat beside the older woman.  With a careful look around the room, he lets out a soft huff into the air.</em><br/><br/><strong>"Listen up. If you want a Ghost Badge, I'm your best friend on this campus. Prove that you can handle the responsibility and you'll have one by the end of the month.  If you lose your Ghost Badge..."</strong>Her eyes scanned over James Freestone.<strong> "You may ask your pier here to tell you how to get a new one." </strong>She allowed that to sink in for a moment before taking a deep breath.<strong> "Do <em>not</em> challenge me to a battle. I <em>will</em> humiliate you in front of the whole school. Do not think I will take it easy on you. That is not the way of a Dragon Master.  I can either be your friend, or I can be your worst nightmare.  You have a choice.  Upset me and you will <em>not</em> enjoy this year. Carrying on, Godric;"</strong>she gestured to the old Garchomp behind her.<strong> "may be old, but he is not weak. He is still dangerous. Do not annoy him. He does not take kindly to strangers." </strong>With that, she held up her Pokeball and recalled Godric.  She tossed another one.  Out from the ball came a Haxorus.  Standing at a whopping 6'2" and packed to the brim with muscle, it was obvious that the Dragon Master took her training seriously.<br/><br/><strong>"This is Roe. Do not touch the scythes.  If you must touch him, keep it near his torso or back.  They <em>will</em> cut through your fingers like a knife through paper."</strong>With that, she recalled Roe, throwing another Pokemon.  A Druddigon appeared this time.  He hunched over, brows furrowed slightly as he let out a huff of air.<strong> "Jour. He takes kindly to most."</strong>Shrugging, she withdrew the Druddigon before throwing two Pokeballs out.  An Altaria landed on the desk before her, stretching out its cloud-like wings before relaxing completely. A Flygon landed near her, sinking low to the ground as it surveyed the room.<strong>"The Altaria's name is Alto and the Flygon's name is Bandit.  You will not see them often; but you will see them more than my Kingdra."</strong>With that, she returned the pokemon, allowing Garchomp back out since he had the room.  With a yawn, he settled down to rest.<br/><br/>Placing her hands on her hips, the Dragon Master surveyed the room.<strong>"...Now that you know a bit about me... I want you to introduce yourselves.  One after another. Introduce your Pokemon as well. As unfortunate as it is relying on one another; you will have to learn to create bonds with your fellow trainers." </strong><br/><br/><div align="center"><em>Even through the stern look, a small flicker of a smile played on those lips as her eyes seemed to soften slightly.  Another year.  Another set of trainers.</em></div>
