The goth girl rolled her eyes. She had lived in Castelia city her whole life and she definitely knew how to navigate the streets. This argument was getting ridiculous. She decided to go the more fun route and avoid continuing the nonsensical argument.
"Why are you wearing a hat and whose your friend and why is there a tympole biting her leg?" Dayara blinked and then whipped around, grabbed the tympole and yanked it off of Morien's leg.
"The hat is so that I don't get fur in my hair, my friend is a lame-o rich chick named Morien, and there is no tympole biting her leg. That was your imagination." The goth girl eyed Dayara suspiciously before going over to see if Morien was going to bleed to death (she wasn't).
Morien was sulking, the goth girl still hadn't introduced herself, and Dayara was mumbling to her woobat under her breath. Morien was carrying Satan and trying to figure out where they were going to start the gym challenge. She had a sneaking suspicion they would be taking the first gyms last. Unless the goth girl was very persistent and wanted to meet Roxie. Which she probably would considering she was wearing one of the band's braclets. To be honest, Morien thought that battling Roxie would be kind of cool, especially if they won. Unfortunately, Satan didn't seem to like her much and wouldn't obey her. Dayara had noticed this and offered to "get" her a pokedex. She had even done the air quotes around get. (Morien had stared at her in horror.)
The goth girl had vanished while Morien was in the Pokemon center getting Satan x-rayed for the pokeball and getting rabies tests done. Dayara had stared at a wall innocently while this was happening. Then she had gotten kicked out because of The Incident.
The goth girl came back about an hour later with a pokeball, laughed at Dayara for getting kicked out of the center, gave them Chinese food, stabbed Dayara with a chopstick for not telling them she was a vegetarian sooner because she could have gotten her food she would eat ("But it hasn't come up in conversation yet you dick!").
Before they even left the city Ithi won two Pokemon battles with her axew that she apparently had, flirted with a red haired girl and nearly got arrested, gotten into a sword fight with a sword vendor, and Dayara had almost been arrested for hitting a police officer with said sword.
After giving the police officer Dayara's lunch and fleeing, they decided to travel towards a gym that wasn't Burgh's (they had all three heard horrible rumors about it). Dayara informed them that they were going to go in circuit order (the goth girl had grinned at Morien and mouthed something about Roxie).
The second they walked out to the docks it started raining. Dayara stole one of Morien's sweaters to use as a hood to protect her hair being as it her hat had mysteriously gone missing. The ferrie man was so eager to leave he didn't bother to check for tickets or money. Dayara gleefully started dancing the second he turned his back. The goth girl stole one of Morien's sweaters to cover her head. The hair dye stained it in a slew of rainbow colours within minutes. The goth girl introduced herself as an apology (Her name was Ithi. Who named the poor children.) She wasn't forgiven.
Both Morien and the Ithi begged to battle Roxie first. Dayara informed them that being as she was the one funding this she decided who they challenged and when. Ithi informed her that she wasn't the only one funding it. They had gotten into fistfight and Morien couldn't help but want to cheer. She had a reputation to uphold (unless it referred to Pokemon battles but then again who considered that wrong except for weirdo plasma losers?) and she planned on upholding it until she got sick of Dayara and wanted to kill her. This would clearly never happen. Never.
Ithi vanished shortly after Dayara made a small child cry while Morien sat on the docks and tried not to laugh. Dayara was currently trying to appease the kid's parents. Morien had given up on not laughing. The parent's ducklette was attacking Dayara's hair now. A crowd gathered to laugh. Morien almost fell of the dock because she was laughing so hard, but a wayward stranger saved her. Ithi came back to find the docks to total chaos. She found Morien and found out about the circumstances and then she started laughing too. Dayara glared at them and they didn't even care.
After checking into the Pokemon center for the night (Dayara was delighted to find out that she was only banned from the one center) the three girls started planning their journey.
"I'm just sayin that if we want to beat the entire league we should probably wait until the new gym leaders are settled in!" Ithi said, pointedly staring in the direction of Roxie's gym.
"Fine, but I'm going to go and beat that new guy first. Isn't that right, Fang?" Her woobat turned its face at her for a few seconds before going back to sleep. "See! Fang agrees that beating a newer, less experienced gym leader is the way to go and not get our butts kicked!"
"If you put it that way anything sounds good!"
"One day I will teach you exactly what good is"
"That better be a promise you know how I hate to be disappointed"
"Oh trust me, I hate to dissapoint."
"I feel like I'm too young to be around you two." Morien informed the girls. They ignored her. Morien turned away exchange in order to play with the pokeball that the nice Nurse Joy had fished out of Satan's throat. She wondered if that was why s/he had been so angry looking. Satan licked her knee. She decided that Satan actually didn't hate her as much as she had hoped. Weldon (ithi's axew, which a toddler on the ferry had named accidentally) started attacking Fang right about this time, and Satan decided to help out. They all three stopped their various activities to watch this spectacle. Satan beat the crap out of both of them and then went to sleep on Morien's leg.
"She gets to be the first one to challenge the new gym leader guy." Dayara informed them. Ithi nodded frantically.
