Pokemon United

Titania was pleased to see that the Rufflet was willing to join her on the walk, but would still make sure to watch him closely. Every time the eaglet pokemon turned to look at her, she would give him a warm smile to reassure him. She would also take care to walk at a speed that would be easy for Rufflet to keep pace with as she wanted him to be able to enjoy the exercise.

The two of them would soon approach the riverside where a pile of sentrets were cuddled up with one on watch duty. Her rufflet would instantly screech upon spotting the scout pokemon. It wasn't hard to guess that he wanted to fight, but the tough choice was whether she should permit him to. On one hand, letting Rufflet fight could only help improve their relationship and hopefully work out some more of that aggression. Besides a trainer was supposed to fight wild pokemon in order to help themselves and their pokemon grow stronger. However...Nurse Joy said that Rufflet may have a rare disease that could be passed to other pokemon, but the chief word was may. Then there was the fact of just how vicious the eaglet was in battle.Well she might be able to control that to a degree and she could recall him if he tried to continue fighting after the sentrent was clearly defeated. So that the issue of the possible illness, but surely if it was very communicable, then the Joy would have seen it before. So it was probably ok to allow him to have brief contact with other pokemon for the purpose of fighting.

So having made her decision, she turned to Rufflet and then pointed the watching Sentrent. "I'll let you fight the Sentrent, but you have to back off when I tell you. Now Rufflet, use Wing Attack!"

Titania would watch as Rufflet attacked the Sentrent and couldn't help but feel bad for them. However fighting wild pokemon was an inescapable part of being a pokemon trainer and she had to do what she could to forge a bond with the traumatized eaglet.

"Good job Rufflet, now use wing attack again!" She would command him to continue his attack hoping to end the battle quickly and thus reduce any possible risk of Rufflet transmitting whatever problem he had. At least he was listening to her...for now anyway.

Titania had hoped that Rufflet's last attack would end the fight, but apparently that had been too much to ask for. Well she had started this fight and had to see it through.

However now that Rufflet was on the ground, she needed to change tactics. "Rufflet, use peck!" The eaglet's beak was a potent weapon in such close quarters which meant that now was a good time to make use of it.

(Sorry it's short. Been a while since I posted, also any ideas what to do plot wise now that Avalon dropped out?)

Titania was growing more concerned by the minute as the fight lingered on. The two sentents had taken quite a bit of damage and one even looked like it was ready to collapse at any moment. However both were still up and it was still two vs one. She kept rufflet's ball close in case she needed to recall him and debated against sending out another pokemon to help.

However the decision was made for her as one of the sentrents scored a critical hit that knocked out rufflet. She gasped out loud as the poor eaglet pokemon went down and quickly recalled him. Not wanting his effort to go to waste however, she would call out Zephyr. She would have to return to the center after this to care for rufflet and desperately hoped that it wouldn't blame her for what had happened.

Titania knew that Zephyr wasn't the most reliable of her pokemon, but he needed to get stronger and hopefully fighting the weakened sentrent would be good for him. That is if he was willing to listen to her.

"Zephyr use peck please!" She would attempt to command him and hoped that he would be willing to listen to her. Then briefly turning her attention to rufflet's ball, she would mutter a silent apology and hoped that the fight with the sentrents would be ended quickly.

It seemed that Zephyr was willing to fight for her once again and for that Titania was grateful. "Good job Zephyr, just a little more! Use peck once again."
She could tell that the sentrents were nearly down and hopefully the battle would help Zephyr grow stronger. Then once the battle was over, she would have to go straight back to the pokemon center and get her poor Rufflet tended to. The teen desperately hoped that the loss wouldn't make the eaglet pokemon hate her even more. After all, she already had a massive uphill battle with it to start with.

Titania would watch as all three pokemon would fail to land any of their attacks. It was almost sad to watch as she could see just how tired the sentrents was and felt bad for them. However it would all be for nothing if she stopped the fight now so all she was could do was once again order Tailow to use peck and hope that the fight was ended quickly.

Titania would watch as one of the sentrents finally fell to Zephyr's sharp beak and would feel a wave of relief. Then the second sentrent would flee and Titania decided not to persue it. "Good job Zephyr." She would praise the Tailow before turning her attention to the knocked out sentrent. The teen would pick up the defeated scout pokemon and hide it in some nearby brush to help protect it while it recovered.

Then allowing Zephyr to remain out of it's ball to stretch it's wings, she would head back to the pokemon center in order to tend to the unfortunate Rufflet. It felt like she had taken one step forward only to get pushed back two steps. After all, she doubted that the eaglet pokemon would be at all inclined to trust her since he had fainted so quickly in her care.

Once she arrived at the pokemon center, she would recall Zephyr and head inside. Then she would find nurse joy before handing over both bird's balls. "I was trying to bond with and train the rufflet, but he got knocked out by a lucky blow. I thought I was making baby steps with him too until that happened."
