Nate walked into the pokemon gym and thought,"Man, this place looks exactly like my old school here!".
Clyde noticed him walk in and said,"You here to challenge the gym leader?" He took his eyes off of his morning papers and looked at Nate.
"You bet I am!" Nate followed Clyde to the room where battles were held.
"First you must battle these two in order to challenge the gym leader." Clyde nodded and a boy walked up to the other side of the walked in between them and Nate took his waved down his flags and the battle had begun.
Rosa walked through the town gate that led to Virbank City. When she walked passed the pokemon center her Xtranciever rang and she answered it. She immediately saw her mother's face on the screen but before she could say hello Mom cut her off saying that her brother was starting his adventure in Aspertia City and would catch up to her as fast as he could. She also said that Nate was already taking on the gym and that she better hurry up on her badge collecting.
Mom hung up on Rosa before she could say a thing, leaving her confused and excited at the same time. She then decided that she would catch a Growlithe and train in the Virbank Complex. If she were going to beat Nate, then she would have to train hard. Rosa ran towards the complex only to be locked up. A tall man with a ring of keys was standing on the other side of the gate."What brings you here?" the man said. "I'm here to train my pokemon!" replied Rosa."I'll tell ya what, if you get my workers to get of their lazy butts, I'll let you train here whenever you want!Deal?"he said. Rosa nodded her head and the guard opened the gates for her.
She walked through the gates and they shut behind her. Rosa wandered further into the complex, looking for any wild pokemon. Much to her luck, Rosa caught a Growlithe and battled Audino for extra experience. Rosa found the three workers and defeated them. She asked the last worker how many people were here but he didn't hear what Rosa asked. The man at the gate walked up to her and said,"Thanks for getting those slackers on their butts!" He walked back to the gate and opened it for Rosa. She understood what he was doing and she ran through the gates before she would be locked in here for the whole day!
"Well he was just plain rude!" Rosa murmured to walked into the pokemon center so Nurse Joy could heal her pokemon. Rosa decided to take on the Virbank City gym after lunch.
Rosa left the pokemon center around noon, hoping there wouldn't be a line. She then entered the gym which happened to be a concert stage. There was no line or people in the only noise was the sound of music coming from Roxie and her band.
"You here to challenge me?" Roxie said.
Rosa walked towards the platform and asked,"So I don't have to battle anyone else before you?"
Roxie shook her head and walked up to the platform as well."You ready?Cause I'm gonna knock some sense outta you!"Growlithe and Koffing were sent out.
Clyde waved down his flags."Let the battle begin!"
Nate walked out of the gym with his new gym badge."Nate?" he turned around to see a familiar person."Is that you?" Bianca said.
"Yup same old me!It's been a while hasn't it!" Nate replied. It had to be at least a few months since his dad took him to the lab.
Just then Cheren came outside to see Bianca and Nate chatting. "Bianca?" he asked in surprise.
Bianca and Nate turned their heads toward Cheren. "Cheren? It's been a while hasn't it?" Bianca asked. It had been almost two years since they had started their journeys together, alongside with Hilda. She would have never guessed that Cheren was the gym leader.
Cheren came down the steps and nodded. "Almost two years since we started our journeys." he said.
Right after Bianca nodded her head, a boy with dark blue hair charged over towards you the gym leader? If so, I want to challenge you right here, right now!"
Cheren just shook his head and replied calmly," If you wish to battle me then you'll have to defeat my trainers first.". He then walked inside and closed the door behind the three of them.
"WHAT KIND OF WEAK ANSWER WAS THAT?!YOU ARE SO GOING DOWN!" the boy what caught his attention was the boy with brown hair standing in front of him. Wait a minute? he thought to himself. His anger at Cheren died down and he went to greet his old friend.
The battle was over when the trainer had taken out Roxie's was returned into its pokeball and so was Marill. The band behind Roxie had stopped playing and stared at Rosa in she was the first to win the Virbank City gym badge. Clyde walked over towards Rosa and held out the badge. She took the badge and walked out of the gym.
Rosa walked towards the pier and got on the boat to Castalia City.
