Location: Ordell Academy Building - Battle Classroom
Marco was a little embarrassed by the sudden outburst that he displayed in class. So much for his plan of staying in the background, but he should have figured that plan was out the window yesterday when he had to present in front of the whole academy. Marco decided that he would be silent for the rest of the class and just listen to what Mr. Reyes was saying. He could feel eyes watching him not the usual looks that he received because this stare was different than the others. He could feel a strong presence watching him and when he tried to find that source, his eyes locked with a pair of happy eyes. She had introduced herself to the class as Koru Frene and she was smiling at him. Marco blushed because he was not expecting to receive such a nice smile nor the thumbs up that followed. He stared at the girl wondering why she was cheering for him. Marco didn't want to be rude so he returned her gesture with a smile of his own; a little awkward smile, but he hoped that would be enough. Her Cyndaquil was a cute little thing and Marco thought that was fitting since she was a cute girl. When those thoughts ran through his mind he immediately looked away since he was feeling very shy.
As he looked away from the brown-haired girl Koru, his eyes landed on another girl whose hair color caught his interest immediately. She had big blue eyes, one of the prettiest he had even seen, and lavender-colored hair. She hadn't spoken a word the whole class except for her name which was Skylar Moore. Marco felt a little awkward about knowing all of these people's names even though he did not introduce himself to them. In his old school he would try to introduce himself to everyone he knew, most of the time they thought he was weird or had heard bad things about him, but that never stopped him before. The kids in his class were all different people and Marco wondered if he could get along with anyone.
A large television appeared from the wall and Mr. Reyes instructed everyone to watch the battle tutorial video. Marco watched the video with attentive eyes. The two trainers that were battling had really cool pokemon and seeing them make all those moves was so exciting. Before he even realized it, Marco was smiling and his eyes were shining with curiosity. These were how Pokemon Battles were fought and maybe one day it could be him on a video battling a strong trainer. The moment was short-lived as the video came to an end along with Battle Class. If he wanted to learn more about pokemon battles then he would have to wait until next time. Marco glanced over at the rude kid that had called his pokemon useless; Silvano. He frowned at seeing him not understanding how someone could talk about pokemon like that. Charmander was his best friend...his only friend and he never thought that his pokemon was useless. In fact, if his pokemon wasn't with him then he didn't know how he would have been able to cope with the kids from his old school.
Marco didn't have any questions for Mr. Reyes and his final words were confusing to him. When he spoke them there was so much passion in his voice which made him believe that the phrase he said was very important. Maybe it was something that he wasn't meant to understand yet. Adults were always saying words that he didn't understand, but they were words that he would understand one day. Since class was over, Marco stood up with the other students and gathered his things. Charmander was by his side, he had been surprisingly quite since that Garchomp appeared like he was tensed or something. However, once Mr. Reyes returned his pokemon to its pokeball then Charmander seemed to calm down. Marco petted his friend then headed towards the door. He looked towards the girl with the lavender-color hair and then looked away feeling shy once more.

Skylar watched as the students started to file into the classroom. She wasn't really interested in trying to spark a conversation, that just wasn't in her character. She spoke when she had to, or when it was needed. She saw no reason to speak to others if she didn't need to, why waste the time and effort? She came here to learn, not to socialize with everyone in the academy. It was then a girl and her Cyndaquil came into class. She seemed to be more chipper than other students she had seen enter into the classroom, but then again she was probably nervous as well. It wasn't unusual for one to feel nervous on their first day. Hell, If Skylar hadn't been disciplined by her father, she'd be nervous too. Her eyes watched the girl closely, as she sat next to her. She wasn't sure why the girl decided to sit next to her, usually people thought her as a cold individual and avoided her like the plague. Apparently this girl had other ideas. Skylar just looked forward after introducing herself, and when she heard the girl introduce herself as Kour Krene she blinked softly. Where had she heard that name before anyways? It sounded familiar, could she be overthinking things? Skylar wasn't able to meet her roommate, and she hadn't read her paper so she didn't know that this girl was indeed her roommate. So she remained silent, she'd remember soon enough given time. For now, class was the most important thing on her mind. So she listened in as people introduced themselves. Skylar didn't make an effort to memorize peoples names, why bother? If they were to be assigned a project, or be working together on something then that was a different story. However, she felt no need to if she wasn't going to actually interact with these people outside of the class.
It was then that another student entered, and she watched his behavior. It was clear he knew one person in the class, and only one person. He pretty much made a bee line straight for the girl who had gotten here just before herself. Not that she cared much, it was none of her business after all. What really peaked her interest was when some students began to say that this wasn't the battle teacher. If he wasn't the battle teacher, did something happen to the real one? Another thing was how they were talking about the entrance ceremony, she had missed it due to her injury. She had to have it tended to by the nurse so she missed it by chance. When the teacher confirmed that the teacher was on leave, she simple made note of it. He seemed like a good guy, but then again looks could be deceiving. When he released his partner, Garchomp, Skylar looked at the larger pokemon. He was surly strong, and could definitely put up a fight if needed. Skylar wasn't going to say she was excited, or impressed. No, that pokemon was that way due to the hard work they put into training. Nothing more, and nothing less. It wasn't like he was special or anything, anyone could raise a strong pokemon if they took the right steps. All this proved was that this man had some experience and credentials that justified why he was subbing in for the real battle teacher.
Personally, Skylar could care less who the teacher was. As long as the could do their job without any issues, Skylar wouldn't argue. When he stated to tell him what they wanted from this class, she thought about it. Sure she wanted to be more independent, but she didn't want to tell other people her reasons. Frankly it was none of their damn business, however, since it was technically something the teacher assigned she'd answer. She waited calmly for her turn, and let the others finish speaking. Koru stated that she wanted to be a master of fire type pokemon, which wasn't bad. Skylar had to give her credit, if she worked hard she'd be a powerful ally or enemy. Then there was the silent student, who spoke up claiming his name was Ethan. It was an interesting name to say the least. After him, a girl named Maria spoke stating that she took the class for her pokemon. It was a strange thought, and personally Skylar thought it wasn't a very good reason to be in the class. Sure battling strengthened the bond between trainer and pokemon, but still Skylar thought it was immature and silly in its own right. Not that she'd ever say that, again it wasn't her business anyways.
What really caught her attention was when a boy named Antonio spoke. He wanted to know how to identify strong pokemon over the useless ones, and Skylar actually understood his reasoning for answering. She didn't want weak pokemon on her team, and she certainly didn't want anyone weighing her down. In that degree she agreed with Antonio, however, she certainly didn't agree with how he stated that weak pokemon were useless. The only useless and weak pokemon in her book where those who were pampered, spoiled, greedy or lazy. If a pokemon refused to do as she asked, or didn't train hard with her then she had no use for it. It was as simple as that. However, before Skylar could speak the awkward boy from before jumped up and started to verbally attack the other student about what he said. Skylar blinked, rolling her eyes at him. Just because he didn't agree with him didn't give him the right to snap at him. Sure Skylar said this now, but even she lost her cool in a heated moment. She also took this into consideration, but at the same time she couldn't say she agreed whole-heartedly with either boy. Both had their own opinions, and Skylar to a certain degree agreed with them on certain issues. Skylar was not on to get into a pointless conversation, so again she remained silent.
Once Marco calmed down, Skylar opened her mouth to finally speak, only to have class end on her. She frowned, annoyed she wasn't able to speak her part. However, the world just wasn't always fair. She grumbled a bit unhappily, before gathering her things together. Ace stretched softly, before slapping upwards and out of Skylar's lap. Dazed and half-asleep, the poor thing slammed right into another student. With a sharp cry, and a soft thump Skylar looked up confused. When she noticed Ace on the ground, and a boy looking at him her eyes widened. For the love of god! Did Ace not know how to avoid hitting someone? What was worse was that it was the boy who had made that sudden outburst early. She mentally groaned, but quickly zipped up her bag. She then grabbed her crutch and slowly made her way over. She looked the boy over, her eyes staring into his. What was she supposed to say? She wasn't exactly the most social person here. She rubbed her arm, looking down towards Ace as he slowly got himself back up "sorry" she said, looking at him blankly. Once Ace was back up in the arm, he flew over to Marco's head and landed on it. Skylar blinked, blushing uncharacteristically. She sheepishly looked at the boy "Ace, get off... that isn't MY head you're sitting on" she said, motioning for him to get off the poor boys head. Ace blinked and looked downwards, and shrieked as he flew upwards alarmed. Skylar smacked her forehead embarrassed "sorry... again" she spat, sighing as Ace finally made it over to her head and sat on it soft. Well this just got a lot more awkward...

As Mr. Reyes ended class Koru outstretched her arms, she had been stiffened by her overacting nerves of excitement, maybe she shouldn't have eaten so much this morning. She placed Cyndaquil in front of her and swung up standing with her arms stretching out and hanging back to her chest with Cyndaquil squeaking happily. Though, it might have something to do with two things: either he was as excited as she was to battle for the first time next class, or he was just glad Garchomp wasn't standing over him now. For now Koru would mark it up as excitement for battle. She blushed so happy just thinking about it she swung from left to right giggling,”Oh my gosh I can't wait!” she chanted. Cyndaquil was beginning to feel a little dizzy and slumped backwards in her embrace, hanging to get her attention. She stopped and poked his belly, making him giggle too. While distracted by her cute partner Koru turned towards her newly discovered roommate, she was pretty with violet hair and bright blue eyes, but what shocked her was the crutch she was holding herself up with, is that why she wasn't around until now? What happened that got her hurt? She started to feel bad about how before she was worried about not having a roommate when the one she really had was injured this whole time. She helped Cyndaquil onto her shoulder as she walked over to Skylar, but stopped almost right next to her when her pokemon flew up and landed on the Marco boy's head. The little bat pokemon was even cuter up close, causing Koru to gap in awe and compliment aloud,"It's so cute!" she maintained her awe and turned to Skylar, rubbing the back of her head,"Oh I'm so sorry! That was a little rude... she held her hand out to her and added,"I'm Koru Frene, but I guess you already knew that um I'm your roommate! I've been wanting to really meet cha!" shaking Skylar's hand she gave Marco a glance too, ignoring the obvious shyness the boy was presenting himself in. She grinned,"Great to meet cha too, you're quite the speaker Marco boyo!" she didn't really mean to add boyo to the end of her compliment, but that was how she usually addressed some people. She asked, pointing to Marco's head,"So what kind of pokemon is that? I'mnever seen one like it before?"

Marco was getting ready to dash out the door so he could rid himself of these awkward moments he was having. The academy was definitely better than his old school where he was feeling stress and tired all the time. However, this new place came with a different kind of stress so he was a little confused about how to feel at the moment. Also now that class was over he was terribly reminded that he skipped breakfast. Marco held his empty stomach. Charmander had been eating the snacks Mr. Reyes gave him so he wasn't all that hungry, but their teacher did mention it was lunch time so Marco could have his fill.
All of these thoughts were going through his head that he didn't even notice the bat pokemon coming at him. Charmander was eating his snacks so he didn't notice either or at least he didn't notice until it was too late. "Oof" the sound escaped Marco's lips as he was knocked down as if volley ball had struck him. The black-haired boy looked down at what struck him and it was none other than a pokemon. Marco blinked momentarily forgetting about the pain on his buttocks as he stared at the pokemon whom he had never seen anywhere before. Charmander was ready to go and defend in friend when a young girl with blue-eyes arrived. Marco noticed the new arrival and looked up from the ground to big blue eyes which were close to his vision. The boy didn't move only stared at the girl with the crescent moon hairpin; her eyes were like the ocean.
The moment disappeared when they broke eye contact as she rubbed her arm. Marco felt like looking away and rubbing his arm as well. His face felt hot, but when she spoke he felt like his face was on fire. He looked back at her wondering why she was apologizing until he realized that he was on the ground because her pokemon accidentally knocked him down. Marco quickly stood up and hastily tried to straighten his school uniform, "you don't have to apologize." He was speaking a little fast, "it...it was an...accident," and now he was speaking a little slow. He couldn't look at her at the moment because her eyes felt like they held a strange kind of power over him. Man was he feeling really awkward at the moment.
When he felt something on top of his head, Marco almost lost his balance from the added weight. The bat pokemon seemed to be using Marco's head as a nest. Charmander place his hands over his mouth trying not to laugh at the scene in front of him; Marco had the funniest luck. Hearing Skylar speak again grabbed Marco's attention and he looked up to find the girl blushing. He blinked not sure if what he was seeing was real, but her cheeks were pink. Marco wasn't sure why, but he smiled at her and felt a little better. "It's okay," he spoke clearly, not too fast or too slow. Charmander smiled, his friend was a strange kid with funny luck, but there were moments like this when he did things right.
"My name is Marco Guerrero Katsuragi," he extended her hand out to her, "it's nice to meet you."
==========
Antonio watched the students leave and also watched the ones that remained in class. They were an interesting bunch. No one was coming at him with questions and he couldn't stay in the classroom all day either. So he packed his things (which was just a folder) and then decided to head towards the Cafeteria. He wanted to enjoy a nice meal before he continued his duties for the day. Also he was hoping to run into a certain person that caught his interest in the Opening Ceremony.
Another thing on his 'To-do' list was giving his Garchomp some exercise. After seeing the battle tutorial -which involved dragon pokemon- his own dragon had become agitated. He would need to work off that energy somewhere safe, but before tackling on that task Antonio would need some energy of his own. "That's where food comes in," he mumbled to himself with a grin as he walked towards the door.
He glanced back at the students that were still in class especially at the boy Marco who was talking with the girl Skylar. Looks like he was getting her to talk and now came another girl student to join in. Antonio grinned, the kid was getting popular.
[Exit]
==========
Marco was waiting for Skylar to introduce herself when they were approached by the girl named Koru. The black-haired boy watched her feeling a bit confuse, but it seemed that Skylar's pokemon had caught the girl's interest. Marco remembered that when he was waiting for class to being, Koru had been watching him that time as well. She wasn't really watching him, but she was looking at his Charmander. She must really like pokemon. Marco thought as he watched the two girls interact. Koru was really energetic and he was sure that he wasn't the only person that made this observation. She was so bright like the sun and he felt himself being drawn in just like the sun drew in the other planets.
When Koru glanced at him, Marco felt himself becoming shy once more. Just like during class when she was smiling at him, he was starting to feel like his cheeks were on fire and her comment didn't help at all. Marco wasn't sure if he was being praised, but Koru seemed to be impressed by him. Was she referring when he spoke up after Silvano made his comment about pokemon? Maybe that explained the reason she gave him that thumbs-up earlier. Marco nodded, "n-nice to meet you Koru boyo." He wasn't used to talking with someone so cheerful so he ended up repeating the manner in which she said his name. Charmander watched Cyndaquil curiously since it was a fire-type pokemon like him. He hadn't seen another fire pokemon for some time so he was naturally intrigued.
At that moment Marco's stomach started to growl cutting into the conversation. The black-haired boy held his stomach as if trying to hide that the sounds came from him; he was failing. "uh...um, my stomach just reminded me its lunch time..." he chuckled sheepishly, "we should grab some food -I mean- we could get some food, but its okay if you don't." He wasn't making a lot of sense, but basically he was inviting them to go eat at the Cafeteria. He was really hungry, but if they weren't then that was fine. He was going to leave anyways, but if they were all going to the same place then maybe they could go together. Perhaps he was asking for too much or he was acting too forward. Charmander patted him as if telling him that it was good that he was trying. Marco looked down at him and smiled. He would wait for their answer and once he knew what was going to happen then he would leave for lunch.

Skylar wasn't really sure what she should do, she certainly didn't want to get all friendly with this person. Neither did she want to get to know him. She just wanted to keep to herself really, no one needed to get into her business. The only reason Skylar talked to him in the first place was because her pokemon had ran into him. Even if she didn't want to talk to him, she'd never just walk off without apologizing... unless he deserved it, and clearly he didn't. So she apologized, and she had planned to leave until yet another person arrived. She shivered, two was already pushing it, but three was a crowd and Skylar hated crowds. She jumped when the girl practically shouted about her pokemon being cute. She didn't know whether to take that as a compliment or not, since Ace certainly didn't like being called 'cute'. Ace preferred to be called cool or strong. Skylar personally thought he was adorable in his own way, be even she learned never to call him cute. The small bat pokemon flapped his wings angrily, insulted by the supposed 'compliment' "no noi noibat noi!" it screeched unhappily. Skylar raised a brow as her pokemon then proceeded to pout. She just rolled her eyes "hey you'll have to get used to it eventually, that is until you evolve" she said, shrugging. Ace glared at her, before crossing his small little arms and puffing out his cheeks. Skylar just rolled her eyes again "drama queen" she muttered under her breath.
Skylar then turned as the girl introduced herself as Koru Frene, her roommate. The gears in her head began to click, that must have been why her name was so familiar. This was supposed to be her roommate! She looked her over, memorizing her name. It was necessary after all since they would be living together. She curtsied softly, trying to balance herself on her crutches "pleasure is all mine Miss Frene, as you probably also know I am Skylar Moore... please to make your acquaintance I hope we get along in the future" she said, softly. This had become a bit of a bad habit of Skylar's, after so many lessons this was one of the biggest habits she had picked up. She froze once she realized what she was doing, and coughed lightly before she straightened up. She certainly hadn't meant to do that, so she was a bit embarrassed about it. However, unlike before she didn't blush and hid her emotions. She wasn't about to get all buddy buddy with these people, she barely knew them after all. Besides it was nice and shy ones you needed to be the most wary about. They may act all nice on the outside, but the inside could be entirely different. Skylar knew this all too well, and wasn't about to open herself up all willy nilly. No, she was not so trusting. When Koru pointed towards Ace and asked what type of pokemon it was, she looked upwards towards her partner "this is Ace, he's a Noibat. More correctly he is a flying and dragon type that is of the Sound Wave species" she said. Skylar was very knowledgeable about her partner, after all she had to know everything about him. Of course she had much to learn, but she had the basic knowledge down which was a start. After all she can't slack off while her pokemon are working hard now can she?
It was then that Marco stated it was fine and that she didn't need to apologize or anything. Skylar just looked at him, clearly it was her fault. He was probably saying that so she didn't feel bad about it, that or he was just trying to sweet talk her. She didn't know this boy well enough to know, so she was cautious of him. She then stared at his extended hand, as he introduced himself. Skylar had no plans to be friends with this boy, let alone hang out with him outside of class so why should she bother with him? She then listened to him state that they could join him for lunch. The thought of going into the cafeteria and being surrounded by students was very unappealing. She ignored his hand, as she slowly walked past him "I only stopped to apologize, I have no plans to eat lunch or to be best buddies with either of you. Besides I brought my own lunch, so I will be taking my leave now" she stated softly. It might have seemed cold of her, and honestly most people usually thought she was some spoiled rich kid. Sure she came from a wealthy family, but that wasn't why she acted the way she did. She had her reasons, and she just didn't trust them. If you don't trust someone, how are you supposed to hang around them? She was willing to remember Koru for the soul reason of her being her roommate. Otherwise Skylar would probably have just dismissed the girl. No one became friends that easily, and frankly the fact that these two seemed to attract people also made Skylar want to stay away from them.
Skylar was a lone wolf, her didn't do groups. No, she'd much rather be alone at all times if possible. She had no need for friends, no she was here to learn and achieve her goal. That was all, there was no other reason for her being here. Plus often times people misunderstood her, and she was tired... oh so tired of trying to get people to like her. That just wasn't her, it was just so much easier to push people away from her. At least that way she wouldn't get betrayed in the end. She took slow steps towards the door, struggling a bit to move faster. Ace looked over at the other two, a bit sadly but flapped his wings and flew along side Skylar. If anything, Skylar was going to eat in the garden or another place were there were as few people as possible.

The Noibat's reaction to Koru's compliment of him being cute wasn't taken too well, that was something she could obviously see and hear from the new pokemon,”Sorry Cyndaquil likes to be called cute so that's my go-to word,” she laughed starting to feel a little nervous. It wasn't a very good sign that you annoyed someone else's pokemon on the first meeting. There was something about Skylar that intrigued her, like how she had met with Li the other day. It wasn't the same as before though, there was something else she couldn't think of. She looked back at Noibat,"Wow so the little guy's a dragon type? That's pretty cool there aren't many dragon types 'round my parts," though she hasn't really been out of Johto except for family vacations to Kanto, but even then the most she was were Caterpies and Miltanks and Stantlers. Marco asking them to each some lunch brought her stomach to growling a little. All the excitement of the first day had made her stomach almost completely empty. Eating together she would get more of a chance to talk to Skylar before the next class, it was possible she wouldn't see her again until getting back to the dorm later, and talking may not be too much of an activity on a school night,"That sounds great! I'm gettin' a little hungry myself and-" she stopped when Skylar began to speak again. Her face was frozen with the smile she previously exhibited, too surprised by Skylar's words to change her own expression. Was her first impression too strong? She did jump in out of nowhere, oh no what happened? Her voice trailed off as she tried to wave goodbye,"O-okay...bye," She gazed at Marco and formed a small smile to try and lift the mood back from the sudden crash,"If the invitation is still open I'd like to go get some lunch with ya..." if he was still okay with it Koru would follow him out of the classroom as well and towards the cafeteria. Still slumping over her shoulder Cyndaquil peaked over his own shoulder and noticed Charmander noticing him, sending a chill run up his spine, why was he looking at him!?
Maria Taylor Flygon House Future Pokémon Breeder & Healer
Location : Battle Classroom
Company :Class... Mr. Reyes, Silvano Status :I can't believe he said that... Wearing :Uniform with her hair down.
Listening to Mr. Reyes comments, Maria smiled. She knew how important it was to listen to her Pokémon. Though, she didn’t know that it was important for battling, it should have been easy for her to figure out. Either way she hoped that Silvano would learn a thing or two. He desperately needed it. That became even more apparent when Silvano spoke and truthfully Maria wishing he hadn’t.
Maria put her head down wishing he hadn’t said it the way he did. Zubat wasn’t useless and neither was any other Pokémon. In her mind any Pokémon was useful much like human beings. “Lillipup!” The Lillipup growled. Hearing her small pup’s growling bark, Maria snapped out of her thoughts. “Lillipup! Hush now… We don’t growl at people.”She told her sternly. The small pup went from fur on end to relaxing in her owner’s lap. Blinking a few times at Maria, Lillipup still wasn’t very happy about what Silvano had said. In fact she was offended by it.
By the sounds of things Lillipup wasn’t the only one. In fact Marco was also bothered by it, speaking out and telling him off. When Mr. Reyes called it to stop, Maria tore her gaze from Marco and over to their teacher. Moving on with class, she listened and watched taking notes as she did. Lillipup got settled and did the same. ‘Intense fight… ’ Maria thought when Mr. Reyes asked what their thoughts were. Neither pokemon seemed to dodge they just took hits. When class was dismissed Maria packed up her stuff, thinking about Mr. Reyes last words. ‘Always remember: Be kind, for everyone you meet is fighting a hard battle…’ What did he mean by that…?‘Perhaps he was talking about the battle of life…’ Maria thought before looking over at Silvano.
“You shouldn’t have said what you did.”Maria told him forthright. Silvano being the only person she’d ever be able to speak up too on a good day. Letting a sigh escape her she knew that it wouldn’t be right to get into here. Not after she had told Lillipup not too. “If you don’t mind I’m getting some lunch. If you would like to join me that’s entirely up to you.” She commented before heading out of the classroom with Lillipup at her side. Maria still couldn’t understand why he’d said what he did but she supposed she should be used to it. If he felt that way in Olivine certainly nothing was changing his opinion here, at least not yet.

X⇒ LOCATION : ClassroomXXXXXXXXXX⇒ WITH : Maria, as well as some other students It was interesting to hear what Mr.Reyes had to say to the other students about their goals. Though, some of it wasn't all that interesting to Silvano since it didn't pertain to him. He wasn't interested in becoming a monotype-trainer or some Pokemon fanatic that wanted to better understand the creatures. In his mind, Pokemon were all the same. They had no personality or sapient nature or thought. They were just creatures that lived alongside humans and happened to be subservient enough to listen to their master's every command. Believing Pokemon had any kind of personality and supposed love for their trainer was just childish and stupid in his opinion. It was purely what fanatics projected onto their beloved creatures.
After giving his answer and question before falling silent, Silvano noted that Maria's Pokemon started growling at him - like it usually did at him - before his friend attempted to hush the little Pokemon. Silvano tried not to pay too much attention to Lillipup's reaction as he kept his gaze focused on Mr.Reyes' face, silently attempting to discern the look on the man's complex and yet striking features. It seemed as though he was lost in though, as if he were trying to figure out how to best answer Silvano's question on indentifying strong Pokemon from the weak. However, it would seem he'd never receive the answer he was looking for as some other boy in the class just had to interrupt. Why couldn't he have just kept quiet - the nerve of that boy!
Silvano scowled back at Marco, defiantly, a wave of resentment washing over him. How dare this kid stand up and outright tell him that his views were wrong - and doing so right in front of the whole class. "Just sit back down, you sympathetic idiot." Silvano muttered under his breath, just barely audible to the boy. Something deep inside him told him that he and Marco would never quite get along. In fact, he'd one day prove to this kid whose more correct about weak and strong Pokemon. What kind of role could a weak Pokemon possibly play in this lifetime? None in Silvano's frame of mind. They 'were' useless. Marco was just hopelessly optimistic. Only the strongest of Pokemon could guarantee a trainer's victory and that was all that mattered to Silvano.
It seemed as though the black-haired boy was losing confidence in his actions, looking more sheepish now that the entire classroom had shifted focus on him. Silvano couldn't hide the blithe smirk that played on his lips once he realised this and that Marco's last set of words to him faltered in strength. Silvano wouldn't soon forget the boy's actions, which seemed somewhat uncharacteristic of him, given his shy demeanour. But who knows... maybe it was just fated that they'd spark a rivalry between them.
At the sound of Mr. Reyes' authoritative voice, Silvano turned away from Marco and tried to push aside the distain he felt towards his classmate as he shifted his attention back onto their temporary instructor. The man was right in that everyone had different opinions, though, Silvano was reluctant to believe that learning about said differences would be part of their education. He didn't want to see things the way the other students did. Regardless, it seemed Mr. Reyes had a presentation he wanted to show the class, which ended up being a video of a Pokemon battle between two equally as tough trainers. Their Pokemon were both fully evolved dragon types; a Hydragon and a Noivern, which both appeared to be powerful Pokemon -- the three headed dragon, especially so. Watching both Pokemon battle it out on screen greatly intrigued Silvano. He could easily see himself in command of a strong Pokemon, like those trainers, and having a similar match against Marco on screen, both trainers just about equally matched. The thought of it greatly interested him. Though, he still didn't have a clue as to what Mr. Reyes could have possibly meant by stating that sometimes trainers needed to battle in order to communicate with one another. At least it was interesting to know that they would be having practice battles during the next class.
It seemed as though time had just flown by - perhaps being captivated by the video was the biggest thief of time - as Mr.Reyes was already beginning to adjourn the class. The tall and winsome man's last set of words hardly resonated with Silvano. He didn't feel the need to be kind to anyone, save for females who he was conditioned to treat as the superior race, thanks to his aristocratic upbringing. He also didn't see a reason to be kind to the shy and yet defiant Marco that had tried to make him look bad in front of everyone. That boy needed to learn his place.
Standing up, Silvano gave a hush sigh before turning his attention to Maria, who had decided to reprimand him. "I was only being honest." He answered his Flygon friend solemnly, while taking one last side long glance at Marco. "Just who does that kid think he is. Does he even realise what he's done." Silvano muttered, while observing that Marco was now conversing with two of his fellow housemate, one of them being the girl with the fire-type Pokemon that seemed overtly happy about Marco's decision to stand up to him. The other girl Marco was with had lavender hair and a bat Pokemon with her -- something Silvano had in common with her other then their house colours. He had caught that her name was Skylar and that she appeared to be injured, which probably explained why he didn't see her at the Salamence party. Much to his surprise, the girl left the classroom on her own accord, rather than waiting for anyone to leave along side her. Maybe she had no interest in the other students, Silvano guessed.
Returning his attention back to Maria, he gave a slight nod. "You know what, I think I'll join you for lunch." He told his friend, finally sounding more like his usual self. Without any further exchange of words, Silvano followed after Maria and her Lillipup that trotted along by her side.

For the most part, the morning had started out the same as it had during the rest of the week, only this time Silvano had decided to meet up with Maria for breakfast before heading to class. Slowly, he was starting to try new things served in the cafeteria based on whichever ones Maria or Iris chose since they seemed to have pretty good tastes. Though, the only thing he didn't quite agree on was their decision to eat with their pokemon at the table every time. It especially irritated him watching Maria's lillipup dine on top of the table instead of below and out of sight. Fortunately, he managed to keep his comment to himself this time and enjoy a pleasant morning with his friend today. Admittedly, thanks to Maria, Zubat would be receiving some scraps to eat later. It sort of became a regular habit to bring the bat pokemon a little something from every meal over the past few days.
Sliding open the wooden door to the classroom, Silvano entered the room before deftly closing it behind him. He didn't expect to find himself the first student to arrive, but guessed that the other students would be arriving shortly after him. After all, he had been walking with Maria on his way to the classroom but ended up splitting up. Regardless, he knew he'd at least be seeing his friend again shortly. Until then, he'd enjoy the solitude for a little bit.
Deciding against letting Zubat out of his pokeball, Silvano made his way over to the near-center of the room and sat down cross-legged on the wooden floor. He had though about letting his pokemon out since he knew he'd possibly be using it during class again, but didn't much want the creature to bother him. Even though it had become a little bit stronger, he still wasn't exactly proud of it -- at least not enough to feel confident about showing it off. It wasn't even a particularly interesting pokeon either. If he was lucky, maybe there was a chance he wouldn't have to let it out at all during class and instead watch some more interesting battles or something. Shaking his head, Silvano decided to remove his Pokegear from his bag and look it over. Glancing through the pokedex feature, he idly wondered if it was worth it to make a serious effort to collect more data on the pokemon that belonged to the other students. Maybe it would be a way to gauge how strong their pokemon actually were or would become.
Glancing up from his pokegear, Silvano eyed the doorway, hoping to see Maria enter shortly. At least then, he'd have someone to talk to before class started. Maybe she'd offer him some more tips on training Zubat. After getting the bat pokemon back from her a couple days ago, the pokemon did seem a lot more uplifted and lively than usual.

Maria and Lillipup had spent much needed time with Zubat after his full recovery. After warning Silvano not to be so neglectful to his Pokémon, she returned the bat Pokémon back to him. She only hoped he’d take being a trainer more seriously. However knowing Silvano, Maria wasn’t about to hold her breath.
As for today, Maria wasn’t going to worry about that. She met up with her childhood friend that morning and headed to the cafeteria. Like always despite the dislike of Silvano, the ten year old brunette had Lillipup eating right alongside her (on the table). Regardless the morning seemed to be relatively uneventful even after parting ways with Silvano before class.
Having gone back to her dorm to get something, Maria made her way to her battle class with Lillipup at her side. She could only wonder what they’d be doing for the class. Despite the small pup managing to learn a new move she still worried about her friend battling. It wasn’t that she didn’t have faith in her Pokémon. She just didn’t wish her friend to be harmed in anyway. Though Maria supposed that it was something she’d have to get used to it.
Getting to the room, Maria opened the door to see Silvano in the room. Letting Lillipup go first she closed the door behind her. Heading over to Silvano she took a seat next to him before allowing her puppy Pokémon to jump onto her lap. “Hello again, I see we’re both early.”Maria commented finding she was always early to class most days. She could imagine showing up late to class. Even when she took her time she couldn’t manage it.

Antonio walked down the hall heading to Battle Class which he was still substituting for. He didn't mind since he fairly enjoyed teaching the students about pokemon battles. Today was actually meant to be a big day for the class since they would be able to battle each other and he even had a special idea for the occasion. However, some bad news was given to him today; the Outdoor Teacher had to leave Ordell Academy due to private matters and now the academy was without a teacher of the Outdoor Class. Due to this event, Antonio now had to substitute for TWO classes which were done at the same time. His plans for the day had changed, but they were not ruined.
While getting everything ready for Battle Class and Outdoor Class, Antonio had lost track of time and thus he was arriving late to class. The young man sighed and passed his hand through his messy hair; he didn't fix his hair this morning. He opened the door to the classroom and looked around at the students that were present, it seemed like he wasn't the only one late to class today.
"Morning students," Antonio smiled at them which the usual grin on his face, "sorry for being late, I'll make sure to reflect on my actions." He walked to front carrying a folder with him, he would need everyone to see and pay attention to him so the front of the class was the best spot. "Today's class will be special. We will be going to the Campsite located Off-Campus where he will be combining classes with the Outdoor Class students." He could already see the confuse look on the students faces which was completely understandable since. "I know, I know. Its not the usual routine, but I will explain everything once we reach the Campsite. For the students who are not present I'll be leaving a note on the door so they will know where to meet us." He took out a piece of paper from his folders which had the news about the classroom change for today already written in big bold letters.
"Now we are quite late as it is so everyone please follow me to the campsite. C'mon, let's go get those butts moving." Antonio urge them as he motioned for everyone to leave the classroom.
X⇒ LOCATION :Battle Class XXXXXXXXXX⇒ WITH : Maria, Mr. Reyes
Hearing the door to the classroom open, Silvano glanced up from his Pokegear to watch his friend enter, along with her pokemon, Lillipup. He offered her a thin smile as she took up a seat beside him on the floor. "Hey, again." He greeted her back, while tucking his Pokegear back into his bag. "Never a bad thing to be early." He then added, noting that they were now the only two students that had arrived so far. He sort of wondered if there had been some kind of announcement they missed, about class being canceled or something, But then he supposed there would be some kind of note lying around to inform students about the change of plans. "I'm sure the others will show up soon." Silvano then told her, before glancing down at the puppy pokemon that was seated obediently in Maria's lap. Idly he wondered if class truly was canceled, if Maria would be interested in possibly giving a practice battle a try.
Just then the door to the classroom opened and a familiar man entered the room, the same mysterious individual that had been substituting for the class since the first day. Silvano hadn't paid attention to any other students that (may have) entered the room before Reyes, but it seemed the class ended up being a lot smaller today. Perhaps that's why it seemed to make sense that the class would be merge with another one for the day. "Good Morning, Mr. Reyes."Silvano intoned, returning the man's greeting along with any other students that chose to do the same.
When Mr. Reyes spoke again, after making his way to the front of the room, Silvano paid close attention to the man. He didn't seem to be running too far behind, but Silvano supposed the man's apology was more of a formal token to his students. When he announced that the class would be relocating, Silvano couldn't help but look on incredulously. Why today's class was decided to be held with and combined with those taking the outdoor class, Silvano wasn't sure, but he was certain that Mr. Reyes probably had a plan for his students in mind. "Maybe this will be interesting..." Silvano thought to himself as Mr. Reyes told the class to rise and get going.
Getting up from the floor, Silvano then turned to Maria and offered a hand to help her to her feet. "I don't know about you, but I don't much look forward to a class outside... during the fall." Silvano muttered to his friend, before leading her along with the others that would be headed to the Campsite. He hoped it wasn't too cold out.
