A/N: Hello everyone, I am back with the chapter of this story. Here, Casey takes on the Fuchsia City Gym.
Disclaimer: I don't own Pokemon
Casey laid back and stared at the skies. Tears had welled up in her eyes from recalling her defeat. Casey rubbed the tears out of her eyes. Lara had heard the whole story and took a drag of her cigarette.
"Wow, that must have been hard." said Lara.
"Yeah. It was such a devastating loss, I gave up and returned home." replied Casey.
"Why?" asked Lara.
"I just couldn't keep going. My spirit was broken." answered Casey.
"Now you're going back." noted Lara.
Lara took a drag of her cigarette.
"I'm really nervous." admitted Casey.
Lara let out a chuckle.
"You've gotten lucky." said Lara.
"What do you mean?" asked Casey.
Lara took a drag on her cigarette.
"Koga is gone." answered Lara.
"He is?!" exclaimed Casey.
Lara nodded her head up and down.
"Yes. He's a member of the Elite Four now." said Lara.
"So is his sister running the gym?" asked Casey.
"No. His daughter Janine succeeded him." answered Lara.
"I didn't know he had a daughter." said Casey.
"Most people didn't." replied Lara.
"What's she like?" asked Casey.
"She's been trained by her dad, so I'd imagine she's though." answered Lara.
"Oh." replied Casey nervous.
"Hey, you'll do great." said Lara.
"You think so?" asked Casey.
"Of course. You're a though young lady and I know you'll kick butt." answered Lara.
"Maybe you're right." sighed Casey.
"You're beaten yourself up." noted Lara.
"I'm nervous. I gotten beaten so bad last time..." said Casey trailing off.
Lara took a drag on her cigarette.
"Casey, listen to me - you will win." said Lara.
"But -" began Casey.
"Knock it off!" snapped Lara.
Casey froze as Lara took a drag on her cigarette.
"You've gotta stop beaten yourself down. You ain't gonna get over this if ya do." said Lara.
"It wont be the same. It's not Koga." said Casey.
"The pity me act ain't doing you no good." said Lara firmly.
Casey thought for a moment as Lara took a drag on her cigarette.
"Thank you Lara! Tomorrow, I'm going to beat Janine!" declared Casey.
Casey jumped to her feet.
"I swear on it as a fan of Team Electabuzz!" cried Casey.
Lara chuckled and took another drag of her cigarette.
"I'm sure of it." said Lara.
Lara then stood up and brushed the back of her pants.
"Let's head back. I gotta put out this cigarette." said Lara.
The two headed back with Casey's mood raised up. She talked to her Pokemon and confirmed she was okay. They went to sleep and awoke the next morning. After having breakfast, she left the Laramie Ranch and made her way to Fuchsia City. Casey arrived and stopped at the Pokemon Center before going to the Gym.

A/N: That's where we'll end things for now. I had Casey battle Janine here for two reasons: first I am going by Gold, Silver and Crystal for the gym leaders and Casey will battle Koga, but not right now. Next time, Casey continues on her journey. Please review.
