ＴｈｅＰｒｉｎｃｅＳｐｅａｋｓ ↘↘
Archer emerged from Adell Woods into a clearing with a large tree. Huh? Was this that Old Oak tree they always talked about? It didn't look like anything special!
Indeed, Archer found the Pokemon in the forest rather disappointing. Nothing was much different than home really – weren't there supposed to be tons of awesome Pokemon out here? One Psyduck, three Skitty, a Shroomish, five Rattata, and a Whismur later, he still hadn't found a Pokemon he wanted. He needed something sharp! Something strong! If he was going to catch something, it was going to be worth his while! The Pokemon he'd seen so far were far from extraordinary.
A rustling brought the boy's attention to a nearby bush. Aha! A Rufflet could be seen, scavenging the forest floor for food. This was more like it – a Braviary was perfect for him!
“Alright Faron! Sand Attack! Follow up with Tackle!” Archer commanded, pointing at the Eaglet Pokemon. Faron was quick to obey; throwing chunks of dirt towards the Pokemon. The flying type quickly turned around to see what all the noise was about, and at that moment, a large chunk of dirt hit it square in the face. It cried out angrily, now partially blinded, and angrily flapped it's feather about. Yes! With it's eyes tightly shut, it didn't even see Eevee's attack coming. A clean hit! The Pokemon was sent rolling into a nearby tree.
“Alright! Quick Attack! Finish it!”
The Evolution Pokemon bolted towards the Pokemon with great speed, and slammed it's head into the Pokemon's belly. In the commotion however, Rufflet began flailing it's wings around, using an improvised Wing Attack. Eevee hadn't seen the attack coming, and was sent a small distance away. It wasn't done yet, was it? Well, that could be fixed! “Once more!” The final Quick Attack did it. Archer took out, and tossed one of the Pokeballs he'd been given at the defeated Rufflet. After drawing the Pokemon inside, the ball shook vigorously for several moment – the Pokemon was determined! Alas, it's efforts were in vain, as the ball soon became still; the button in the middle flashing red to signal a successful capture.
Archer made his way to the ball, picked it up, and put it inside his bag. “You were awesome!” He congratulated his Eevee, patting it's head.

Niara “I'm not really a people person...”  Niara was gone in the forest, looking for new pokemon. Her search led her here to the Oak where Niara, Marco, Iris and Vern all fought off a Team Rocket goon. They defeated the man, though a bit of damage was done to the tree. It seemed to be doing well, though. Mitus went over and satagainst the tree, Dasher stretching and laying down out in the open. Loki was hopping the branches with some Aipom and Ambipom. Once he came in, he landed beside Niara, nuzzling his friend and sitting, watching for any movement. I really hoped to find Pokemon put here. I'm sure we will find one. After setting out some food for her pokemon, she heard her pokegear going off. It was a message from Marco. She smiled, seeing he was trying to see why Iris was acting so odd lately.
Ok. I hope you can figure out what has been making her act so oddly. Have, fun, Marco. I'll be back into town soon.
She sent off the message and put her pokegear away. She turned her attention back to the forest, listening and watching for pokemon. After a while, still nothing. But once Dasher finally got up, he jumped and spread all of his legs, a surprised look on his face as the ground under him shook a little. Then he wasn't there, replaced by flying dirt and rock. What appeared after was an Onix! After crying out in surprise by its appearance, she pitched what it was and smiled. Mitus! Use Confusion! Don't let it get you! So he used Confuaion, sending it onto it's back and twisting around until it was backup again, leaving Niara time to think. Slash! He went and jumped up the rock body of Onix to use Slash at it's head, enraging the Onix but still damaging the pokemon.
It used Rock Throw as Mitus jumped away, striking Mitus hard, though he got back up after hitting the ground. He seemed in pain but still ready to fight. Are you ok, Mitus? He nodded before extending his arm blades again. Ok... Then use Confusion again then bring it down with Feint. He nodded and his eyes glowed, using his power on it and causing a little more damage as it hit another nearby tree. As it started struggling to get up, Mitus jumped in and hit it with Feint, causing it to go down but not out. Once it struggled more to get up, Niara threw a pokeball at it.
She watched it for a minute, seeing the pokeball continue with wiggle and move around. After the final ding, Niara smiled and retrieved her new pokemon. We did it! Thank you, Mitus! We're going to have ice cream for celebration! Dasher, I think you want a big piece of meat instead, don't you? He nodded happily, his tongue hanging out. Niara giggled at the sight before checking the time. She figured Loki would want to try some work as well. Let's go look for one more then we will go have our celebration. They all nodded, heading off with Niara. Mitus felt good about himself for helping Niara catch another friend. He just hoped it wouldn't hate him.

And if we die, I’ll meet you up in ђєคשєภ It was many hours since Vern had woken up suddenly from his nightmare, but still early in the morning. His time in the Library had been spent mainly with just reading the newest installment of a favorite manga series of his, except it was in Japanese -of course. Afterwards, when the sun rose, he'd headed out to the Adell Woods and ran around on Tova's back for another two hours.
So now, he and Tova sat around the Old Oak, exhausted, but definitely worth the energy. Despite his Ponyta's incredible energy and attitude, Vern loved her just like he did all of his Pokémon; this was really how the two of them bonded, horse-back riding. He felt a little bad though, that none of his friends even knew that he had a Ponyta! Well, except Oliver, but he didn't count. Affectionately, he patted Tova's fiery-mane, giving her a carrot from out of the messenger bag he'd set against the oak. "Good girl, Tova! It's not everyday Ponyta leap over the Phoenix Falls three times in a row!" She neighed, snorting in an "that's nothing!" tone of snort. Tired -and rightfully so- Vern rested his head against her flank, closing his eyes as the two of them napped together under the old Oak. Maybe later, they'd go out for another run? XXYou’re everything I’ve been waiting for
XXXXXXXXFor all of these years and I thousand more, you make me wanna...ℓινє ƒσяєνєя Pokemon  Nala  Tova  Ryuichi Mysterious Egg Attire: Purple plaid shirt (unbutton slightly), black and blue sneakers , white skinny jeans , cute short hair , black gauntlets, eyeliner, , messenger bag, and hickey-ring around the left side of his neck. (Whoever interacts with Vern at this point, takes the risk of potentially getting severely injured from Tova. Play at your own risk! )

Lél
Barking echoed through the forest. Barking and growls. "Miksa!" A deep voice called, followed by an incomprehensible and guttural speech. Lél rode by on his own chiseled ponyta. It dwarfed most other horses, and just about every other ponyta. His saddle looked worn, old, and almost uncomfortable. Barebacking was always more painful to a horse (never mind the rider) and Lél had spent countless nights in "gentlemen's fights" to earn enough to buy one of quality. Western saddles were too heavy--how americans did it was beyond him! English saddles were delicate--suiting the posh owners. And hungarian saddles... As good as they were for keeping weight off the horse itself, it wasn't exactly the best for the rider if they weren't racing up and down the mountain sides. It was hard, but he finally found an Australian Saddle he could save for. Light, durable, versatile, and comfortable on Tas.
He had spent the night outdoors. No one would miss him during his day off. He grunted and shifted his heels, with one stirrup finally broken off after all the abuse it took. When they came by the oak, he looked down. His roommate? And not the tough one either. He played with the cigarette in his lips, scratching at the back of his head. It was early still, and this boy didn't seem like a camper. Then there was his petite ponyta. "Hm." Was all he said, letting the two grant each other a breathing greeting before he tugged on the reins to cue Tas to bring up her head and be alert to her rider. "Jou ride horse?" He said, low but loud enough to rouse the boy.

I... just wander ‘round with ๓ץ єץєร ฬเ๔є รђยt, because of you. νєяη кєℓιιкσα νєяη кєℓιιкσα ωє ѕρєηт συт ℓινєѕ, яυηηιηg тняσυgн тнє ωαѕтєℓαη∂. And if we die, I’ll meet you up in ђєคשєภ Vern had been asleep for only a few minutes, when the sound of hooves were heard in the back of the boy's half-conscious mind. It was so soft in the distance, that his subconscious didn't alert him right away to the other person approaching. Infact, it wasn't until a deep, clearly-foreign, voice addressed him, that he was jolted awake. "Nani? I didn't do it!" He immediately mistook that deep voice for his father's, despite the accent. His eyes were still blurry, and it took a moment for his weary self to focus on the face a few feet away. Well, it wasn't exactly a face per say, that he first saw, and it had to force his eyes upwards to see the chizzled -and really hot- face of his other roommate.
This, of course, startled him into another mini-heart-attack. "Holy s**t! Uuughhh..." He rubbed his eye with one of his black gauntlets. Vern would inch away from Lel, but it was kind of hard to subtly do that when he was already pressed against the Old Oak. Tova lifted her head, made that her nap was interrupted. She looked at the other Ponyta, snorted, not the least bit fazed that Lel's fire-type was much bulkier than herself. Vern's Tova wasn't exactly a small Pokémon, and by no means was she a baby either. Though, there was still that size difference, maybe they were just bigger in Hungary? Tova the Ponyta was built for speed, that was that. "Jou ride horse?" "Umm..." He looked away, not sure if he was supposed to be blushing at his roommate's hunkiness or scared s**t, so he stuck with scared s**t just to avoid an unwanted black-eye. "Yeah I do. This is Tova. I've only had her for a little more than a month, though."
He normally would've asked the same question in return, but common sense told him that answer already. Instead, Tova stood up from where she was laying next to Vern and stretched, then went over to sniff the other Ponyta. So far, she was behaving. Vern could only hope, that Lel didn't do something... Unnecessary. XXYou’re everything I’ve been waiting for

Phoenix Phiar Lél
Lél breathed out puffs of smoke, the stench of nicotine hanging from it. He reached into one of his saddle bags, pulling out a handful of rich pellet and apple-treats to hand off to the more petite ponyta. "No saddle..." He muttered, tugging the rein slightly to turn Tas' head and making the effort to give off a treat less work on his part. "Long ridez need saddle. Horse'sh back ish not meant to hold direct veight. Saddle make horse ride longer, better, not hurting as much. And keepsh rider balance." He explained. Vaguely. He didn't notice if Vern was uncomfortable--he wasn't the best at reading people. But he wouldn't refuse free advice to a fellow rider; horses gone too long just barebacked would often grow to have back problems at young ages, or bad attitudes from the irritation of having someone's a**-bones poking and pounding in their backs. Slightly, he patted his saddle, causing Tas' ears to point up and her head to turn slightly. "Sit. Try. I show." This was probably the most excited he'd be around his roommate, as loosely apathetic as it seemed on the surface.
((be back later. Taking mom to dinner for her birthday))

I... just wander ‘round with ๓ץ єץєร ฬเ๔є รђยt, because of you. νєяη кєℓιιкσα νєяη кєℓιιкσα ωє ѕρєηт συт ℓινєѕ, яυηηιηg тняσυgн тнє ωαѕтєℓαη∂. And if we die, I’ll meet you up in ђєคשєภ Vern's nose cringed at the stench of smoke of nicotine. It wasn't something he was used to, at least not anymore. Oli had quite his smoking habits a little more than a year ago, so he'd lost his desensitation to the smell of cigarette smoke in the process. "Saddle?" Honestly, he didn't know much about horses, so the thought hadn't even occurred to him just yet. "Oh... I didn't know that..." Okay, now he was a little red. He'd figured that eventually he was going to get Tova a saddle, but he really didn't know the first thing about them. He was so used to riding on Rose's back, that a saddle didn't seem that important to him. As for balance? Well, he was really good at clinging to Tova's thick neck for dear life, same with Rose.
Tova, who normally would've smacked any person who got near to her, wasn't against free food. She sniffed the food that was extended to her, carefully examining to see if it was worth letting the stranger get close to her; then snorted. Before he could get a chance to pet her -if that was even his intentions- she snatched up the food and trotted away to go run laps around the tree.
Vern was completely oblivious to any excitement Lel might've been experiencing on his end of the conversation. He was totally convinced of the apathy act. Apologetically, Vern patted Tova's side. "I'm sorry girl, I didn't know my a** was hurting your back." She snorted a puff of smoke and embers. Was that a laugh? Only Arceus knew. Right on cue, she ran a lap around the tree, always full of that energy. Then, Lel told Vern to get on his Ponyta's saddle. Okay, he was back to being scared. Awkwardly, he obliged, half of him not wanting to offend his scary roommate, the other half wanting to know how to better take care of his Ponyta, who had now completed her fifth lap around the tree in that span of time. Arceus, she was just full of energy! "Ummm... Okay..." He fidgeted uncomfortably, avoiding any eye contact. Carefully, he stepped up onto the saddle and positioned himself. Arceus! This horse was huge! Tova was, again, by no means small, but Tas was huge! Immediately, he went to hold onto Tas's neck to keep himself balanced on the unfamiliar horse, but stopped himself short when he realized that he was supposed to be balancing himself with the saddle.
Seeing her trainer all saddled up, Tova stopped her running -which had turned into running and trotting around the hollow in general- to come up to Tas. "Hey Tova. hope you don't mind if I'm on another horse for a moment." She snorted, nuzzling his side, asking for a carrot. "I'll give you a carrot later!" He patted her head reassuringly, which caused her to snort and rear up in frustration. Puffs of fire came out of her nose, not happy with that response. "Give me, carrot!" She protested, the meaning quite clear to Vern and presumably Lel too. "No! Only behaved Pokémon get carrots! Got it? Behaved." She whined; he sighed.
"So what do I do from here?"XXYou’re everything I’ve been waiting for

Lél
Lél got off easily, with a single swing of his leg over Tas' back and not even seeming to slide down. From his pocket, he pulled a knife and flipped it open; taking the broken stirrup from the horn of the saddle, he poked in holes and carved strips to make-shift tie back on. After that ordeal, he helped Vern up, ignoring a voice in the background--he figured it was some goody goody boy. "Hrrmmm..." He grumbled a bit at seeing Vern cling to Tas, unknowingly cuing her to move; he was quick to catch the reins and pull down in a jerking manner and make her halt. "Htch!" He scolded; her ears went back in disapproval, and he smacked at her chest to get her to behave. Considering density, the smack sounded worse than it felt. "Sit more forward, center saddle," He directed, scooting the boy until he sat right and moving his feet properly in the stirrups. "Keep fuut here. Heel down. Not squeeze or jou make her bolt. Jou lean, jou tell 'er fashter." Then he moved to the reins, "Thumb up, like hwolding..." He needed some reference to go to. The likely hood of Vern taking similar things to himself was... unlikely. "Like icesh crem. Vhen turn, puull down, outward vith arm, push in vith heel," He took the boy's arm and heel to show, making Tas move into a slow turn. "Tap side vith heel, she go. Slow." He stepped back.
Now that the lesson was over, he moved to Tova. No ground manners! "Htch! Htch!" he motioned out his arms to move her back. At last, his cigarette had burned to its but; he dropped it down and stepped it out of its flame. For now, he had more interesting things to occupy his attention. When Tova bucked, Lel grabbed her hoof, motioning for Vern to keep practicing while he held long enough to show that he, the human, was the one in charge. Normally, colts and sour horses had attitudes like this: bucking like mules to show they were dominant. Whether this was the same or not, it didn't matter to Lel. To him, what mattered was that an animal or a pokemon needed to have manners and respect. "Jou horse not broken?" He looked back as Tova bucked off, clearly insulted that her kick missed its mark (some time around yearling colts granted Lel that amount of accurate timing).

And if we die, I’ll meet you up in ђєคשєภ"I wouldn't do that If I were-" Yep, Lel made the worst mistake possible with Tova. He touched her. Infuriated at having her hoof grabbed by a human, the flames that covered her body lit up with the intention of burning the person that was touching her. Ponyta and Rapidash had the peculiar ability to control whether their flames burned the person that was touching/riding them or not. Her leg struggled and squirmed, trying to get her hoof out of Lel's grasp. It was pretty clear that Vern's other roommate was pretty strong, but a scared and untame flaming horse was far worse. Somehow, Tova managed to get her hoof from out his Lel's grip, and immediately reared up at him, neighing, fire shooting out of her body.
Vern grabbed Nala's Pokémon and sent her out. "Nala! Absorb Tova's fire!" A flash of red light appeared; Vern's Vulpix came out and started to take in all of the flames so as to keep the surrounding trees from burning. The last thing Vern needed, was to be a part of a second forest fire! The young man's voice deepened and lowered, commanding, "Tova! iie! (no!)You will listen to Lel! Imasugu! (Now!)" Taking a step back, Tova snorted fire at Lel, not at all fond of him, but did otherwise listen to Vern. "No, she's not broken yet. Again, only got her a little over a month ago, and she really only likes me." Oh great Arceus, was he going to need Lel's help to "tame" her? While he practiced what he'd just been shown ontop of Tas's saddle, Nala the Vulpix was yelling at Tova for her rowdy and wild behavior.
This was why, Vern hadn't told anybody about his Ponyta, he was afraid of things getting out of hand... XXYou’re everything I’ve been waiting for

Lél
Lél shook off his hand, stinging and red from the fire. Though, when considering his "performance" with Miksa, it didn't bother him quite as much as anyone would think. Miksa himself ran about with barks and growls; its own flash fire shielding it from Tova. And a loud roar from its mouth commanded attention from the forest. "Miksa, Csendes," He wavd his hand, disapproving of the growlith's sudden energy. The "puppy" pokemon paced, letting out smaller roars until it heard another warning from its trainer and laid down with one last objecting growl.
Seeing all the fuss and excitement, Tas' own body began to shake, and she stomped one hoof in protest of her being tied up with a rider, her ears pointing back to show her frustration. "Htch!" Lel tugged on her bridal. "Vun veek," He told Vern. "Hard part being daht I can't find rope. Dehn next hard ish get her in gear. Daht come later. Horse ish imporrtant in countree. Good vorker, good friend. All need be broken." He explained as well as he could. Hungarians, Russians, Peruvians, and other adorned horsemen were... gentler when it came to breaking a horse. Rather than fighting it or forcing it to accept a rider, they simply wore it out. It took more time, but the end result was better: the horse respected the human, and didn't fear the human. However, it also depended greatly if the horse tripped over itself and fell; then it had no one to blame but itself for being throne off its feet--there was no human on or next to it. "I find ropes, work horse twice a day... Vun veek, horse ish calm, reshpectz rider, reshpectz people 'rround it." He dealed his plan, implying that Vern take a lesson. Considering that Lel volunteered for very few things, he was more excited now than he'd been since coming to the academy. "Horse can like jou, not mean it reshpect jou."
