"Um.." Fallon said, trying to decide which Pok?mon to use. All three of them looked at her hopefully, wanting to battle. "Uh, Delibird, I choose you!" Fallon said. Chikorita and Dragonair were dissapointed and they both hopped to the side so that Delibird could battle. "Start off with..." Fallon grabbed her Pok?dex to check Delibird's moves. "Aurora Beam!" She ordered.

The shining beam hit Elekid and it went flying backwards. "Fight back with Thunderbolt!" Elliott shouted as Elekid sent an electric bolt at Delibird.

Dani was sitting beside the somewhat dissapointed Chikorita and Dragonair as her head moved back and forth, watching the battle intently. A colorful beam shot from an effervescent Delibird in a beautiful display, which Dani noted was an important aspect in contest battles. Elekid retorted, however, with an equally beautiful response in an electric beam geared a Delibird as Fallon grew slightly more nervous.

Fallon was too slow to issue a command to Delibird to dodge and Delibird, being loyal, had done nothing. The attack hit Delibird and sent him flying back as well as leaving a black scorched mark on Delibird's stomach. Delibird was hurt, but not finished yet. Fallon looked again to her Pok?dex. "Present!" She said, wondering what that would do. Delibird reached into his bag like tail and revealed an odd object which it threw at Elekid. Elekid caught it and stared at it. "No! Drop it!" Elliot shouted. Suddenly, the object blew up in the electric Pok?mon's face and gave it a scorch mark similar to the one Delibird bare. "Nice one!" Fallon said to Delibird.

"Hmm" Dani thoguht as she examined the battle, "Be interesting to see them in the contest" she reasoned before taking out a Pokeball, and from her hand, releasing Beedrill in an explosion of white, shimmering light. "Watch this, keep an eye on thier moves and stuff, let's see what we need to improve on" she told her bug-type, as she planned to use him in the contest ahead, though she wasn't entirely sure for what part yet. Beedrill buzzed loudly as the somewhat awkward Pok?mon managed to sit down beside Dani. Most people deemed Beedrill as a very unpredictable Pok?mon, much like Crawdaunt in that they often turned on their trainers, Dani knew better though, she had taken evident care in finding a happy and friendly enough Beedrill. She had chased this Pok?mon all the way through Sinnoh, she knew how he felt about its trainer, and she knew she could be forever comfortable with it. "Thanks for being good, buddy" she said as she rang her arms around the Pok?mon for a moment as it continued to watch the battle.

Elekid shot another Thunderbolt at Delibird after a command from Elliot and after the electric atttack hit Delibird he fell down. Fallon expected him to get up and issued a few commands before being informed by Dani that he had been knocked out. "Aw, man." Fallon said, dissapointed that she had lost already. Fallon returned Delibird and sat down with her other Pok?mon.

"Yes, we won!" Elliott said. "You were really good though Fallon. Anyway, I think we should start to walk to the contest now, it's nearly time to start," The two girls walked with Elliott until they got to the Contest Hall.

"That was awesome guys" Dani said as she ascended to her feet, then pulled out an expanded Pokeball, aiming it at Beedrill and recalling the bug-type in a flash fo brilliant crimson. They proceeded to walk forward and out of the field until they were en route to the contest hall.
After ten or so minutes, they approached the two immense doors to the hall and proceeded through them. As they opened the doors sound from the crowd inside boomed out and Dani raised clenched fists before her smiling face and spun around slightly, "I love the atmosphere!" she exclaimed before looking to her friends, eyes wide and grinning, "I need to go get changed into my contest dress" she informed them before adding, "But I'll see you guys after the contest, and maybe in the finals" she said, winking at Elliot before running down a hallway and out of sight.
She progressed into a room teeming with girls who were doing their make up and trying on varying dressed, which Dani began to partake in almost instantly. She removed her jeans and sweater in a small room in the back and revealed from her bag a familiar blue and white dress with a small short sleeved blue sweater that only reached to the bottom of her chest. She proceeded into the room and had her hair straightened before putting in a smaller blue bow and covering herself in glitter. She put on eye liner and a small amount of blush to accentuate her face on stage, under the lights.

Fallon and Elliot bandied words for a while before Fallon finally got the courage to sign up for the contest. She decided she would use Dragonair for the appeal and Chikorita for the battling. After signing up, she had a lot of spare time as most of the contestants would be putting on their contest attire now. Fallon realized she couldn't wear her normal casual wear but she had no fancy clothes with her. As she wondered what to do she noticed a beautiful dress lying on a table. Fallon looked around. No one was there, who would care if she took it? No. She said to herself. That's stealing. After taking another look at the gorgeous blue dress she decided it was worth it and she hurried to put it on. She looked at herself in the mirror and smiled, she looked good. Fallon stuffed her normal clothes into her bag and noticed Dani, who looked just as good, putting on some makeup.

"I suppose i'd better get ready too," Elliott said to himself. He walked over to the male changing area, and got a black tuxedo out of his bag. He changed into i and went to reception. "Hello, how may I help you?" The receptionist asked. "I'd like to enter the contest please. For the appeal I'll use Aipom, and for the battle, I'll use Magmar." Elliott replied. "Okay, the contest begins in fifteen minutes," The receptionist said. "Thank you!" Elliott said. Then he went and sat on a bench to wait for the girls.

"Fallon" Dani said as she ascended to her feet, readied to go out, and back to the lobby area before heading to the back stage area. "You look so pretty!" Dani exclaimed as she took her by the hand and stood her up, "You too!" she told Dani in response. The two girls complimented each other further as they progressed out the doors and into the bustling lobby where they saw Elliot, gabred in a Tux and looking pristine. "Wow!" Dani said looking to Elliot who looked to the girls, "You clean up good" Dani said putting one hand to her hip and punching him lightly on the shoulder with her other as she quinted her eyes and gave him a facetious look of seriousness. Fallon wanted to say something but just looked to him and blushed as he looked back. A moment of silence was palpable as they blushed, looking to one another before Dani said, "Well, you two, let's get back behind the stage where the coordinators stay" she said, thumb pointed backwards towards a door that was labeled in bright luminescence, "Backstage".

Fallon was nervous. She looked out at the audience, which was huge, and she just groaned. She had never like performing in front of people and now she had to do this? She felt sick. "You alright?" Dani asked, seeing the scared look in Fallon's eyes. "It's natural to be scared, don't worry. I saw the way you battled Elliot earlier and I assure you you'll do fine." Dani smiled as she said this and patted Fallon on the back. The contest started and a female coordinator stepped out onto the stage, a cute Cleffa at her side. Fallon watched the woman's appeal, stunned at how good it was and she knew she had no way of beating it.

Elliott gave a rushed compliment to the girls before they all rushed backstage. The MC for today was Gillian. Elliott, Fallon and Dani, were sat on a couch watching her on the TV. "Hello Coordinators! I'm Gillian, and I'm your MC at this Hearthome city Contest! We are here to Dazzle! Battle! And most of all, Have fun! Okay, first up we have a really pretty girl called...FALLON!" And then, the TV cameras were on Fallon. "Come on out, Fallon and her Pok?mon, Dragonair!" Gillian shouted.

Fallon was too nervous to move and it took a few good shoves from Dani before she got up. "Good luck." Dani said. The roar of the audience got louder as Fallon made her way to the stage, thinking of an appeal that would match the one before her. "C-come on out Dragonair." Fallon stuttered as she tossed Dragonair's pokeball. Plain white light spilled onto the stage and Fallon saw a judge write something down on their clipboard. She began to sweat and decided she better get this over with. "Alright Dragonair, use Twister." She said nervously. Dragonair obeyed and jumped into the air. Dragonair aimed her face downward and began to spin in mid air while blowing a milky white substance out of her mouth. The substance began to spin and in a short time a Twister attack had taken form. The crowd cheered and Fallon felt a little more confident. "Now use Dragon Rage!" She said, more excited this time. Dragonair stretched out and blue flames flew from her mouth before landing in the current of the the Twister and spinning around. The audience clapped and Fallon finally felt alright. "Now, Aqua Tail!" She cried at the top of her lungs. Dragonair moistened her tail and fell right into the center of the Twister where she slammed her tail onto the ground spraying water in a few different directions. The water joined the Flames in the Twister and glistened in the sunlight as they spun around. Fallon bowed. "And a beautiful display from Miss Emerson!" Gillian said over the microphone. The twister died down and Dragonair lept to Fallon's shoulder as the two ran backstage. "That was an amazing feeling." Fallon said to Dani as she met her backstage. She could feel her heart pumping wildly and she couldn't stop smiling.

"I know it" Dani said as she nooded, "You did awesome" she said as the MC announced Dani's name aloud. The crowd began applauding as Dani looked to Fallon and Elliot, "wish me luck" she said as she sprinted out onto the stage. A dark hallway soon became spilling light as Dani took the stage, smiling and waving to the booming crowd. "Go, Hypno!" she exclaimed as a seemingly purple Pokeball crashed to the ground and bounced up, releasing in a spill of blue flames and three-dimensional hearts Hypno. "Now, Calm Mind" Dani ordered as the crowd drew silent and watched as Hypno put hands to head and began emitting a large, blue aura as he became more and more calm. A moment passed and the hearts from the initial release became attracted to the almost magnetic energy, as they drew close Dani cried out, "Focus Punch!" "Hyp!" it cried out as it sent a glowing fist forward, pulling forward with it, siwftly, the blue aura and several hearts that flew before it. "Psychic!" she ordered as Hypno's eyes became blue and he took control of the wormhole of colors and hearts before him. He raised it high into the air and spread it out as much as he could without breaking it, so that it looked almost like a celestial picture above them. "Psybeam!" she cried out as Hypno let the Psychic go and shot an immense rainbow beam from out of his twirling Pendulum at the sky. The mass above them began to descend and as Hypno's Psybeam hit its center, it burst apart and rained down in glistening arches around the stage, Dani and Hypno taking a triumphant stance at the center as the crowd exploded into applause.
"Ladies and Gentlemen, miss Dani Hopper!" the MC cried out as the judges jotoed a few things down and ushered her off stage. "Fwewf" Dani sighed as she took to the couch between Elliot and Fallon, "Glad thats over" she said, calmed.
