Rina nods. "I am, though I have a long way to go before then." She says a little embaressed, but determined. She also takes a mental note of what Sly had said about getting another pokemon. She then places her hand over her mouth. "Where are my manners. I'm Rina and this is Sly." She says pointing to the male. After sitting for a bit she gets up and stretches her legs. "Okay Squirtle let's go get us a pokemon." She says letting her pokemon out. She pats her pokemon on its head before heading further into the tall grass. "Come on Sly!" She says before going too far. Walking for a bit she comes across another pokemon. "Hey Sly I found something!" She says hoping he is close.

Rina nods and looks at her pokemon. "Okay Squirtle you heard him finish it tackle." She orders. Her squirtle takes the order and the Burmy falls. "Aright go pokeball." She say throwing the small ball that grows and sucks the pokemon into it. She watches ad the ball shakes twice then a red light appears in the center of the ball. "I... I did! Squirtle we got our first new pokemon!" SHe say rushing to pick up her pokemon. "Great job Squirtle you did it." She whispers before returning her pokemon. She then picks up her pokeball and smiles. "Thank you Sly." She say before sitting down on the grass.

Rina smiled and nodded. "Sure that sounds like fun, and I guess your right. Squirtle let's go. Tackle." She says. She then looks over at Sly. "Nice to meet you I'm Rinabell. You can call me Rina for short." She says extending her hand to Sly. "Squirtle lower her defenses with tail whip then follow through with tackle." She says to pokemon who easily follows her orders. She then looks over at Sly, while still keeping her focus on her own battle. "When do you capture it?" She asks holding a pokeball in her hand. "One more Squirtle." She encourages. As the attack hits for the second time the Burmy stumbles almost losing balance completely.

'Rina looked at the boy. "I'm sorry I shouldn't have gotten mad at you. I just don't him to lose again and the easiest way is to train." She says. Taking Nurse Joy's advise she heads into the tall grass to see what type of pokemon she can either use to train or capture. "Okay Squirtle let's do it right this time." She says placing her pokemon on the grass. It took her a while to realize she needs to learn how to catch a pokemon. She and her Squirtle start heading back to where the boy is. Luckily they won't run into a good pokemon she would want to catch or Rina would be a bit upset about it.

Rina was almost about to cry when her pokemon came back. When asked if it was their first battle she nodded. She held her pokemon's pokeball as if she would never have it again. Somehow she just had to see if he was safe so she let him out and held onto him. Sensing his trainer's worry he sat in her lap while the boy from before walked up to her holding some bottle. "What's that?" She asks trying to get her voice back. She then looked from Nurse Joy to the boy. She wipes her eyes and flashes a fake smile. "Thanks, sorry I ran off." She says before heading for the door. She turned back only once to thank Nurse Joy for her help. Now in the town she decides they need more training before she challenges the gym leader of the area. Looking back she sees the male. "Do you need something?" She asks a little annoyed that she had to stop from training.

Rina was having trouble looking. Her body seemed frozen by both pain and something else, fear. A weird image came to her mind about how she might lose her pokemon and friend if this continued. Before she knew it she had already returned her Squirtle to it's pokeball and fallen to the ground in shock. Not being able to feel her lags she shivered. After a few minutes of this she found the strength to get back to her legs and was somehow running to the next town. The only thing in her mind was saving her pokemon nothing else mattered even the scraps she had gotten from the ground when she fell. She finally made it to the pokemon center and handed Nurse Joy her pokeball. "Help him please." Was all she managed to say in a small, barely audible voice. She made her way outside getting a few very strange looks from the people she passed.
