*Hikari's smiling as she activates the video feed function of the pokégear. There is some heavy breathing in the background, though the source of it isn't Hikari.*

Well, it took me long enough to get around to doing it, but I finally got my first badge.

*She holds up the Zephyr Badge, before quickly putting it away.*

Anyway, I also have a quick question, since well....

*She moves the pokégear to look behind her, showing a Charizard just relaxing and laying down behind her. The focus on him is only for a moment, before Hikari brings the device back to her.*

Anyway, now that I have a pokémon that I can ride on without feeling like I'm breaking every law of physics and risking danger, does anyone know where I can get the HM to teach him Fly? Or does anyone maybe have one that I can borrow? It'd be a lot easier for me to get around if I can fly on Charizard instead of having to walk everywhere.

*There's some snorting from Charizard in the background. It sounds like someone isn't exactly on board with Hikari's plan.*

*Hikari just nodded, not saying anything as she relaxed into Takeru's arms as he pulled her closer to him.*

[His smile softens as he nuzzles his cheek against her head.]

This feels really nice.

Yeah...

*She took a deep breath, nuzzling up against him some more.*

[Emolga, who's still perched on top of Takeru's hat, makes a sound of approval at the intimacy he's watching before his eyes.]

By the way, I think you did really great back there. I'm proud of you, Hikari-chan.

*Hikari giggles, before finally breaking the hug so she can look up at Takeru's face.*

Thank you, Takeru-kun.

*She smiles.*

So, the next one is in Azalea Town, right?

[~~Aw, but the hug was nice. :(~~ Once Hikari lets go, he gave a determined nod while Emolga flies to his shoulder.]

That's right! I hear the next gym leader specializes with bug types so it'd be easy if you have a fire type or a flying type.

[Good thing he has both.]

*Hikari giggled.*

Well, I guess we should be all set for when we get there. I mean, for me, Togekiss is pretty strong and Charizard should be fine with doing that battle if I let him sleep after.

I agree.

[Even Emolga also nods.]

I should let Fearow and Rapidash take over that battle too. And I have Ninetails as back up if ever things get rough.

So it shouldn't be that much of a problem at all then. For either of us.

We should still be careful, though.

Good point. It'd seem pretty silly to underestimate the gym leader and then lose. Especially when we know how strong they're supposed to be.

[A nod and a determined smile.]

That's true! So I don't think there's any room for losing. Especially since I know we can all do this.

And even then, it's still a pretty long way to there, so we should have time to train if we need it.

[He nods.]

I agree. We can train along the way.
