Serenity
Joca woke up the next day to find that Loki was not in bed. She was frantic that something had happened to him and she started gathering her clothes so she could venture out and find him. While she was searching she happened to see a note on the door. Frowning, she walked over to the note and picked it up. "Joca, Lark and I went out early this morning to spar, if you're awake and I'm not there you will be able to find me half a mile out of town. See you soon". –Loki. Joca let out a long sigh of relief. She turned to the clothes on her bed, deciding whether or not she should wear the clothes to get used to the feel. She looked up at the clock and saw that it was late in the morning. Pressed for time she decided not to wear anything, like a natural born Pokémon, then grabbed a couple snack then left. As she walked through the town she ran into many Pokémon who wanted to talk with her casually. She declined, saying that she would talk to them later, and hurried towards the location Loki had specified. As she got closer, she could hear the yells of Loki and Lark as they fought, hear the explosions of energy attacks, and even see the explosions if she was watchful enough. She saw them sparring up ahead and smiled at the way they were acting like brothers again.
"Hey boys! I brought some stuff for ya!" she yelled to them. They stopped fighting and looked over at her smiling. When Loki saw her, naked, happy, and gleaming in the sunlight, he nosebled. Joca giggled at Loki nosebleeding because of her, while Lark fell over on the ground, laughing like crazy. She ran over to him and helped him up. Blushing, the jackal wiped the blood from his nose and kissed his mate lovingly.
"If you'll excuse me," Loki said, turning to Lark who was still laughing. Loki charged up an electrically charged Aura Sphere and shot it at Lark, sending the Zoroark flying. Joca and Loki stood there laughing hysterically, until Lark found his way back. She hugged Lark, then crouched down and rummaged through her bag, finding the snacks she had brought.
"Here, have some healthy snacks that I brought from the hotel," she said as she offered them the nutrition bars.
"I would've preferred chocolate," Loki said (HAH! Take that society!). Loki took the nutrition bar and started nibbling on it whereas Lark wolfed it down in one go. That proved to have backfired later when Lark got a stomach ache and fell asleep. After several hours Lark woke up to find that they had gone back to town, bought some lunch, got the clothes they bought for the journey to Blasten, and came back to wait for him.
"Why didn't someone wake me up!?" Lark cried.
"You were groaning and shivering in your sleep, so we put a blanket on you," Joca replied.
"Well, are we ready to leave, then?" Loki asked.
"Yup all set," Joca replied. Loki looked at the topmost towers of the city of Blasten in the distance and put up the hood on his hoodie.
"Then let's go," he said as he started walking, Joca and Lark following behind.
