[Freya Nemain | 19]

Much as she never actually wanted to admit it at times, Freya always enjoyed a good fight here and there. The subject had always been the daring one, always the one to rebel against the scientists whenever given the chance. And this wasn't just due to her legendary's cunning, brutish, and ruthless air. No, she chalked much of her own defiance to herself.

Large, wicked sharp talons clicked on the stadium floor, making the room shiver, as Freya's form changed into that of her rather demonic legendary. Her red dress swirled into fierce, scarlet scales and feathers. Almost immediately, the whole stadium appeared to be wobbling and dimming in light. Freya sighed, waiting until the dizziness subsided. Blindness, or partial blindness in her case, was always prone to becoming an issue. Even though the doctors here had attempted to save her sight - which had been nearly completely destroyed at the Facility - she had long accepted that one day, possibly soon, she would have to go blind. Permanently, even in half shift. And needless to say, seeing into other's souls was not something Freya was eager to do. Yet. In fact, the very thought of it made her ruffle her feathers like a disgruntled bird.

It seemed as if the rest of the subjects were pre-occupied in their battles already, but there were still a few late-comers to the party. A roar - and a very draconic one at that - alerted her to the presence of Vira who was also full shifted. Every single fiber of her being snarled in pleasure. Freya opened her beak, and let out a fierce screech of challenge right back to the Reshiram-shifter, beckoning for a fight.

Luke and Barry are just watching with their Pokémon Goodra and Steelix. Barry sighs, watching the battle go on. He watches the two, watching their movements even though he has seen Zeta and Summer battle too many times.

Luke lays down watching the battle. He too, was bored out of his mind. He wants to go next to battle, wondering if he goes next who he would battle out of the other ‘subjects’ even though they weren’t that word.

Ranulf slowly floated over to Luke. "Well...are you up for a battle? Might be good exercise." his tail swished back and forth. He was bored. Maybe some exercise would do him some good after all

---

Luke says back, “Yes, I would like to battle. It’s just so boring. We might have to wait a bit before though.” he said and he transforms into full Rayquaza form. He loved being able to fly. He watches the ongoing fight with interest as he waits for it to finish.

*Meteor used substitute right as Odaya used giga drain, so she didn't get hit, Odaya, while a good battler, was still less experienced then Meteor, Odaya destroyed the substitute, making Meteor come back out, Meteor clicked her teeth and smirked, taunting Odaya, if you hadn't seen them in their human forms, you'd think they hate eachother, Odaya prepared another attack, this time close combat, hoping she would hit Meteor*

---

Ranulf nodded to Luke and retreated slightly. He sat down and waited for the battles in front of him to finish. He just rested and prepared his mind for the battle

---

*Odaya used close combat, Meteor jumped up and dodged the attack, using giga impact when Odaya was right underneath her, defeating Odaya, Odaya switched back to her human form, signifying her defeat and Meteor, after landing, did the same, Meteor helped Odaya up and took her off to the side, moving to allow Ranulf and Luke to battle*

Hovering above the ground, Ilmatar's senses stretched out to take in as much as possible, sharpening for the day that eyes failed and images faded from mind. The sounds of fighting was loud and cacophonous, overtaking any sense of peace Ilmatar was attempting to achieve. While not a fighter, Ilmatar was confident enough to defend against an attack, resilient enough to weather any attack thrown and with enough energy to heal without any problem. Fighting was pointless anyways, a boorish activity that had little merit outside of letting out some steam.

*Odaya brought her knees to her chest, wrapped her arms around her shins, hugged them tight, and rested her chin on her knees*
"man...I did awful..."*she said, solemnly*
No, you actually did really good! *Meteor replied enthusiastically*
"really?..."
Really.
"thanks..."*Odaya smiled, watching the other battles*
No problem *Meteor replied reassuringly*

{ Mari Tatsuno | 16 }


The saucepan on the stove bubbled as the ash-haired agent stirred it's sweet-scented contents, the base to the poffins she'd decided to make for her partner. Said partner sat eagerly at her feet, tail wagging and snout up in the air sniffing for the treats. Truth was, Mari wasn't a great trainer, in her opinion. Perhaps she was half decent, average maybe, but battling wasn't a strong quality of hers. Co-ordinating, however, was hot back in her home region, Hoenn, and would have been a perfect beginning for her idol career. In secret, she learnt how to make poffins and pokeblocks, even collected seals. These were the kinds of things that even her colleagues didn't know about her. Whilst waiting for the treats to finish, her other hand was occupied by scrolling through the latest messages in the group chat.

'They should allow you to transform into the legendary of your choice'

'We are also happy to announce our second prototype. This one is for ur partners'

'Elaborate?'

'We're working on it...we'll update you later'

'Those are the only announcements. Lay low and remember your mission'

"Allow us to transform into a legendary of our choice, huh? I-I wouldn't even know what legendary I would want to become..! Jirachi, maybe? But wouldn't this thing make us just like the subjects? I wonder what the director has planned..."

Marluxia chuckled at the screen and pocketed it, walking out of a convince store with groceries in hand. Entering his small apartment, he hummed as he moved apart some of the plants on the counter, setting the food down. He technically could cook, but with the amount of plants littering the apparent, the chances of the room catching on fire was more probable than he liked.

Reye had slept through the call to join the day's current training session. Not that she was lazy, but she was bored easily, which ended up manifesting itself in the form of dozing off or zoning out, which she did often. Her blond hair was messed up by the static of the pillows and blankets, and she began smoothing it with her hand. Scrambling out of bed, she left the shelter and headed for the stadium, hoping no one noticed her absence.

Sheira finished her cooking and smiled at Miko as she placed a sort of fish meal by her front paws. Miko was Sheira's prized pokemon, being her pokemon partner, so the liepard was rather spoiled, as much as a high school kid could spoil a liepard, anyway. It made Miko a smuggy brat at times, but Sheira loved the dark type anyway, nothing would make her think differently. Her own meal was a rather thought out balanced sandwich with microwaved, tater tots on the side. Not that that sounded like a proper meal, but Sheira was honestly just hungry after school and the mission and making Miko's meal, so she would take tater tots.

Vira had taken notice of Freya, and in responce to the screech made by the Yveltal, flapped her wings a few times, growling a bit.

Panting from the battle, Zeta went out of the way to the bleachers, feeling satisfied that her powers were still strong and her skills still sharp. Zeta's main tactic was trying to find the opponent's strategy and prevent them from using it, making use of all the tools at her disposal. Her favorite use of this was her astonishing speed and, surprisingly, stamina, which she trained everyday, with early morning laps on the school track, using a pacing watch to keep the numbers to log. The log being a dairy that she wrote in.

Reye snuck into the stadium, looking as if she totally had been here this whole time, nothing suspicious here. Reye's pokemon was Shaymin, the grass type Gratitude pokemon, grass and sometimes flying, when she so chose. Shaymin normally needed the presence of the Gracidea flower to change into sky forme, but as a result of the experimentation when she was younger, she could switch to sky forme from land forme at will and back again. Only from land forme, though, as she could never switch directly into sky forme from human form, which she supposed made sense. She edged toward the bleachers, keeping an eye on the pokemon in battle currently.

*Meteor got up and helped Odaya get up, Odaya stumbled a bit, being a bit tired from being beat up by Meteor, they both stayed standing in case there was a need to transform or escape quickly, they always did this after battling, nothing bad had ever happened, but it's best to stay alert*

Time skip to next morning

Reye had slept full shifted. She was in her hedgehog land form, curled up, and appearing to be a patch of grass, which was out of place on her soft bed with the covers surrounding her, acting more as a nest then as a covering for the shaymin. Her hair was ruffled from the night sleep as the light of the morning activity filtered through her eyelids. She stretched her tiny limbs, letting out a huge yawn. Reye felt way more comfortable in full-shift, which she supposed came from using the form to hide from the pain when she was way younger. She now felt more Shaymin than human, which was okay for her, as Shaymin was small and snuck away easily if discovered. She shifted into sky forme and flew out the door of her bedroom to the dining table, still a Shaymin, which was to be expected of her.

Zeta was already fixing her own breakfast. She was feeling lazy today so she just poured cereal for herself and cooked up some tuna for her partner. she glanced at Reye as she flew in. Zeta, unlike Reye, was extremely strict about using her shifting powers, she was always overcautious, and used them only when absolutely necessary or when she was assured she was safe to use it. Full shift really hardly ever happened, as half-shift was enough of a problem for her, but she and Reye were very different, and honestly, Zeta was impressed how comfortable Reye was in full-shift, completing her morning routine without a single human limb, which deserved some praise, at least.

Lisa was an early bird, as was her Leafeon, Cocoa. By the time Reye and Zeta were already up, she was packed up and already biking to school, which she deemed necessary, due to the fact that she lived a straight mile from school. In order to be on time, there was no room in Lisa's schedule for laziness, especially if she didn't want to be working in fast food her whole life. The bike ride really helped Cocoa's swiftness and stamina, as the Leafeon always ran along side the bike with no problem, the strides of her front paws just ahead of Lisa's front wheels.

Sheira had been mostly awake the previous night, thinking about the Director, the prototypes, and her mission. It occurred to her that, despite being the leader of the 'agents' she really had very little idea of who the other agents suspected. Was that her being a bad leader? Or the agents being as incompetent as her? As shook her head. She needed to get going. She lived closer to the school than Lisa, but she still didn't want to risk being late, for reasons obvious.

*Odaya was eating breakfast outside in front of the school, she was waiting for Meteor to come out, Leafweaver was eating the assorted berries given to her for breakfast while Blade was laying nearby and munching on some rainbow pokebeans, Meteor came out with one of those plastic bowls of cereal, she sat on the ground next to Blade*

Ranulf was sitting on his bed, just playing with his partner Riolu. He had partially transformed to have his tail only and was just letting the Riolu play with it happily

From the entrance, Ophiuchus slithered out, Ilmatar's partner grabbing breakfast before slinking back into Ilmatar's room. There was a loud crash and a groan, on par for the morning, before Ilmatar stumbled out fully shifted. The cresselia looked exhausted, dark bags marring the underside of pale unseeing eyes. Not saying a word, Ilmatar slowly and painfully twisted back into a more human form, a whine slipping out at the uncomfortable skin. Sitting down heavily on the floor, Ilmatar yawned and looked around. A mumbled "Good Morning" was all that came out before the lithe subject tipped over and lay sprawled over the floor

Marluxia was up already, humming as he made breakfast easily. Watering his plants with a cheerful outlook, he smiled at his Roserade who was mimicking him, the pair working together to get ready for the morning. Eating a quick breakfast, he hiked the bag over his shoulder and held a hand out, Strelezia taking the outstretched hand with her own budded hands. The pair walked to school hand in hand, humming happily.

There was little for Molly to do in the mornings. An outfit was picked out, and he was already out the door, his sylveon trotting after him. He arrived to school quite early heading to the library to pick out a new book. He was let in without a fuss, the librarian already used to Molly's early morning visits.

Luke yawns and gets up, getting dressed and then eat some breakfast, maybe get a bagel or just a banana with cereal. He gets some Cinnamon Toast Crunch and some milk and starts eating it. He also gets a banana and cuts it up into his cereal.

Barry is already dressed and he gets out of his room and he starts to get some pancakes with orange juice. He sighs as he gets them and sits down to eat.
