Cairo nodded, with a slight smile, before they made their way back to the Pok?mon center. "Are you going to tell them, yet?" Cair inquired as they approached the large, electronic doors of the Pok?mon center. Alison was about to answer, when the sound of the doors opening drew her eyes toward the center itself, and away from Cairo, where she saw Chad and Jessica looking to one another, in an unusual situation. Chad's eyes were locked to a blushing Jessica, and they both remained speechless, barely acknowledging Cairo and Alison's entrance.

Alison giggled softly to Cairo as they entered the Pok?Center. "I'll wait a little longer, they seem busy." She said softly to Cairo. "Question for you, when are you going to challenge this frontier brain?" She asked him as they took a seat.

"I was just about to ask Chad, I hope to today, then maybe finish up our stay here with that thing tonight" he explained. Cairo had been looking into the Frontier brains of the sevii islands. He kept thinking to the annoying fact that post-defeating Spencer on Five Island, he would have to travel to Seven Isle to challenge Anabel, as until he had attained six symbols, 6 Island brain, Brandon, would not reveal the location of his locomoting battle facility, the Battle Pyramid.
"You okay?" Alison inquired, laughin as Cairo was brought back to reality from his woolgathering. "Ha, yeah" he said as he approached Chad, and tapped him on the shoulder. "YOU okay, Chad?" he inquired as Chad's eyes reamined on Jessica, and he raised a hand to brush away Cairo's from his shoulder. "Pff" Cairo issued before rolling his eyes.

"Puppy love." Alison said with a sigh before standing. "I'm going to let my Pok?mon get some air, want to join me?" She asked as she walked outside and let all four of her Pok?mon out. Cubone and Sandshrew started to chase eachother while Vulpix and Blaziken took to a tree to relax.

Beautifly flew from the proximity of its trainer to high up in the air, so high that at its zenith, the Pok?mon was barely visible. Beautifly darted around, left and right, chasing playfully another Pok?mon, evidently a Butterfree. "hmm" Cairo sighed, looking to the firmament, sunlight raining down atop his brown hair and flooding his blue eyes. Cairo threw his arm around Alison, holding her close as he looked to his Pok?mon. "So, should we...try and find the battle facility soon, or stay here, or.." he began, clueless as to what Alison wanted to do, but knowing to the utmost degree that all he wanted to do was make her happy. Always.

"We can search for the battle facility. That way if you don't want to battle now, atleast you'll know where it is." She said as she held out three Pok?Balls and returned Cubone, Sandshrew and Blaziken. Vulpix ran over to Alison as she was picked up and held in Alison's arm. She and Cairo started to walk and talk, his arm around her waist.

Chad eventually turned his head toward the glass pane that separated himself and Jessica from the natural world. He peered through it to see three red flashes, and Cairo and Alison beginning to take off in a different direction. He noted Alison's somewhat different behavior lately, as if she was keeping a secret from them, or something to that degree, and wasn't about to let them leave them without a good bye. Naturally, he hadn't assumed they actually weren't leaving himself and Jessica for good. "Come on" Chad said promptly before grabbing Jessica's hand to help her up and out of the center quickly. He, however, quickly relinquished her hand and blushed, fully aware of what he had just done and feeling slightly embarassed.
"Beautifly" Cairo called, head turned backward and to the sky. Beautifly's motions stopped, and she froze for a second, before making one more slow pass around Butterfree and zooming through the air to meet Cairo. She quickly flew passed Cairo, but stopped herself, suddenly, and almost perfectly before turning its head, and most of its body back to Cairo. It sealed its eyes blissfully before fluttering back to a smiling, and walking, Cairo's shoulder. Soon, however, Cairo was surprised as he was met with an equally effervescent Butterfree. "Wow, hey, scared me there" He told the bug Pok?mon who appeared to be laughing. "Free!" it called out as it and Beautifly, recently departed from Cairo's shoulder played around Alison and Cairo's periphery.

Alison smiled at the Pok?mon's actions. "What's that?" She asked after they had been walking for quite some time. As she asked that, a structure came into sight.

"Looks like.." Cairo began, before being cut off from a voice behind them. "A snake or something.." Chad's voice echoed as he and Jessica approached. Chad had seemingly forgotten everything he had chased after the duo for, namely the fact that he thought they were leaving without him, at the site of the giant Seviper head, adorned with crystals and an intimidating open-mouth entrance. "Thats no snake" another voice rang out, this one not so familiar. "That's the Battle Pike". With that the trainers turned around to see a taller woman, garbed in mostly purples and blacks, with long, dark hair. "Name's Lucy" she began before extending a hand. One by one the trainers shook it, Cairo last, "Cairo Whitter" he began, "Lucy, could Chad and myself bother you for a battle?" She looked to them questionably. "A battle huh? Sure you know what you're getting youselves into? Got other symbols?" She inquired rapidly before they finally answered, "Yeah, every symbol for every island preceeding this one" Chad informed her. "So..you guys beat out Nolan, Greta, and Tucker" she, not so much asked, as clarified to herself. "Well then, challenge accepted, stop by the Pike when you're ready". With that, Lucy took off sprinting to her facility.

After Lucy and the group, mainly Cairo, chatted and Lucy, after finishing by telling them to stop by for a battle, left, Alison turned to her friends and asked, "So, do you two think you're ready for the battle?" She then walked to Cairo's said and hugged him tightly, Vulpix on her shoulder.

"Yeah, yeah I do" he said before Jessica began. "She's VERY tough, you guys" Chad, Cairo and Alison looked to the, evidently, informed girl. "I read up about her last night. For almost all of her battles she uses a Seviper, obviously, but for double battles, she generally uses her Seviper and her Milotic" before Jessica continued Cairo interrupted with a, "Woah, a Milotic? I've always wanted to see a Milotic" Alison laughed slighty, before she leaned her head on Cairo's shoulder. "Well, as fascinating as they are to look at, they're tough Pok?mon. Especially hers, the only person to have defeated it was Ash Ketchum. He's a master of the Battle Frontier, all of the others had to battle her Seviper, and those who didn't, battled Milotic and lost"
Despite Jessica's warnings, Cairo and Chad felt that it'd be best to get the battle over with, although at the same time, they had doubts. "What do you guys think we should do?" Cairo and Chad asked synonomously to their female friends.

"I propose Psychic-Types for the Seviper, or better yet Steel-Types. Her Milotic, while weak to Electric and Grass, has mammoth defences that could withstand a couple of hits from either type. so I'd counter defence with defence. But be prepared for a long battle, she likes it that way so Toxic takes maximum effect." Jessica explained in a rather lengthy manner. She turned to Alison. "What do you propose?"

"I just say go for it and do your best. No matter what, you're both winners to me." She said as she kissed Cairo's cheek and smiled. "Also, watch out for poison attacks. Ask Vulpix, they're not fun." She said picking up the small, fire fox Pok?mon.

Cairo nodded to the both of them and then looked to Chad. "Well..This is gonna be tough enough...I could use Mawile, because she's steel-type, but I used Mawile in a frontier battle already, and I haven't used Girafarig yet. He's psychic..." Cairo contemplated aloud. "Agh, alright well, should we go for this now, or think, maybe train a bitm or just do anything for a litte before it. I really don't care, if you're ready Chad I am. Its up to you guys" Cairo concluded addressing everyone and running a hand along his Pokebelt, fingers bobbing up and down as they passed over each Pokeball, one by one.

"I think a little training would be ideal." Jeseica said, apparently with other intentions. "A double battle seems to work best, considering it trains all four of us. How about I side with Chad, and Alison with Cairo?" Jessica blushed, and started her back-forth movement, but stopped when she noticed what she was doing.
