Hey, I wondered if you wanted to come over for dinner tonight? Ruby texted. Sure :D She responded. It had been 4 years since Norman had told her. Was he going to it? She had wondered for the past 4 years. Sapphire. Her friend texted. She just ended up calling her. Her name was Sophia, and she had met her a year after Norman's approval. "Is he going to do it?" Sophia's voice rang out. "I don't know. He hasn't told me yet" She responded. Sophia seemed to sigh. "Well on a brighter side of things, Silver is acting a little sweeter" Sophia had been dating Silver for 2 years now. "That's cool... er" Sapphire said. "How about I come over to your place and we do something?" Sophia asked. Sapphire's dad was out on a large trip to Alola for a professor's meeting or something of the sort. He was always one place or another, practically never at home. Sophia landed in front of her house about 15 minutes later. She recalled her Braivary and said, "Sooo... Whatta you wanna do?" Sophia asked Sapphire. She thought. "We could play monopoly!" Sapphire suggested. Sophia shook her head and said, "No. I have a better board game. It's called, "Pokemon Master Quest". I'll show you the rules!" Sophia exclaimed. So they did. After setting it up they started playing. "So, I got a Charmander!" Sapphire exclaimed. "Crap. I got a damn Meowth" Sophia sighed. Sapphire could tell her luck wasn't the best. Sapphire moved her character forward and landed on a Rattata spot. Her face turned to disgust. A Rattata would do no good against the league. She moved her piece away and now it was Sophie's turn. They countinusly went through the board. Eventually Sapphire got an Articuno while Sophie got a Mewtwo. Their teams were pretty evened out. They both moved their peice to the league. "Battle" Sapphire said. Sophie nodded. The legue was harder but this was a challenge. Sapphire didn't want to lose her 2 +5 cards to Sophie. Their teams went as such: Charizard, Arbok, Articuno, Sandslash and Starmie Vs Persian, Mewtwo, Gyrados, Ryhdon, and finally Omastar. It was on. Card after card. More math. Pokemon faint, bit it was Finally down to Charizard VS Persian. The original starters. Sapphire dealt 18 damage while Persian dealt 15. Sapphire had won the match. Sophie handed over two random cards: Time Travel machine and +3. Not bad. They both got destroyed in the league, even Sophie with Mewtwo due to no + cards. Sapphire got destroyed at Blue. It was a tough match, but since Sapphire won the duel she won. She yipped and said, "That was fun! We should do it again some time" Sophie nodded. "It's 5; got any plans today?" Sophie asked. Sapphire shook her head and said, "Not until this night. Ruby asked me out for dinner" "Huh. Well, what should we do until then?" Sophie asked. "I've actually wanted to practice my fencing. Can you help" Sapphire admitted. "Sure" Sophie said. "I have poles; those won't hurt much" Sapphire said. They took their positions and fought.
