The ever peppy bulbasaur named Palmer trotted into the Rocket Base cafeteria, holding his favorite tennis ball in his mouth. Following after him, almost dragging his feet, one very tall man follow until he collapsed into the seat of an empty table, folding his arms upon it and resting his head down.
Ezekiel was not a morning person......actually he normally slept mornings off, after all, he often stayed up to 3 in the morning working on his projects in the lab or in his little office/dorm. So sleeping in was actually a good thing in his book, no one ever bother him...at least not until he got Palmer and Gavin. Gavin was decisively a morning pokemon. Every day since he got him, at the crack of dawn, he would start to call out to be let out for a morning flight. Palmer was just....too happy. If anyone was awake in their little group, then he had to be awake too! He only slept when everyone was asleep, thought of course, Ezekiel had caught him taking a nap under his desk often around the midday, with a sleeping Gavin as a blanket. Their human envy them for that.
As much as they ruin his sleeping schedule, his pokemon were amiable to him quiet often, such as now:
Palmer had trotted off from the table where the Rocket had decide he will stay until his limbs would stop aching from the lack of sleep while pondering joining his pokemon for a nap this afternoon if possible. The bulbasaur had gone right up to the counter, still with tennis ball in mouth, and streched out his vines, curling one around an empty cup and the other the plastic handle of the pot of coffee. Ignoring some protests from the elder staff, he took both objects back to his trainer and put them down onto the table.
The scent of coffee brought some life out of Ezekiel and he rose his head slightly to stare, almost in awe, at the dark elexir of life before him. With sleep-heavy limbs, he poured himself a cup and took a sip of the pippin' hot liquid, feeling his insides coming alive with the heat. He gave a smile at the bulbasaur who took the sit besides him and pet him in thanks.

Kiarei covered her mouth in a quiet yawn. She didn't particularly like waking up early, but it's not like she'd had a choice Mizu, the little devil she was, woke her up every morning for the sole purpose of bothering her. Kia wasn't quite adjusted to this routine yet, as she'd only had Mizu for a couple of days. Making her way into the cafeteria, she wondered if nayone else was awake. After pouring herself a cup of coffee, she spotted another Rocket there. She made her way over to where he was sitting a took a seat near him.
"Hello." She said, giving him a small smile. She noticed his Bulbasaur and gave the Pokemon a friendly smile as well.
Mizu had trudged along behind her trainer, wondering what else she could possibly do to annoy her. When she watched her trainer sit down, she proceeded to jump onto Kiarei's lap, nearing causing her to spill her coffee everywhere. Kiarei let out a small gasp before putting her coffee down and giving Mizu a stern look.

Ezekiel looked over to the female rocket taking a seat across from him. He gave a slight smile in response until the other's coffee was spilled all over teh place. Taking a couple of napkins from the napkin holder on the table, he, at the very least, put a stop at the flow of the dark substance coming in his direction. Well, at the very least, Palmer annoyance started and ended at the never ending Fetch game. Otherwise, he dare comment that his bulbasaur was a dear angel.
Palmer put his tennis ball down and happily responded with a cry of "Bulbasaur!" at Kiarei's greeting.

Kiarei bowed her head in embarrassment as she grabbed some napkins herself and started cleaning up the mess. Luckily there wasn't too much, and she had the table wiped up rather quickly. Sighing she said, "I'm really sorry about that... I'm a new grunt, and Mizu is my first Pokemon. She loves torturing me so far. I'm Kiarei, by the way." Mizu hoped off her lap to approach the Bulbasaur while Kiarei put the napkins in the trash bin.
Mizu eyed the Bulbasaur curiously. She didn't understand how he could look so... content with the human. She narrowed her eyes at him before saying "Squirtle Squirt!" (Who're you?) and poking his cheek. The bright red eyes gleamed, still very curious about him.
When Kiarei came back, she sat back down, still a bit embarrassed. Noticing Mizu, poking at the Bulbasaur, she eyed her carefully. It was alright for now, but Kia wasn't sure how well Mizu would get along with other Pokemon yet.

Ezekiel tilted his head, looking thoughtful before he took out a small white board and wrote on it. 'I am Ezekiel. Your squirtle's behavior is normal in dark pokemon who have not been trained yet. She just needs a good couple of training seasons to show her she is not indestructible.' and then proceed to show it to her.
Palmer tilted his head slightly away from the poking. "Bulbasaur Bulba Bul Saur!" (My human calls me Palmer....who are you?"

Kiarei's eyes rose in surprise at the white board for a minute. He must not be able to speak she figured. She read the words and nodded. "Nice to meet you. Training sessions, hm. I'll have to give that a try. She could definitely use them, not to mention I could use the practice." Pondering the though, Kia wondered if Mizu would ever be friendly to her, or at least tolerable.
Mizu nodded. "Squirtle. Squirt Squirtle?" (I'm Mizu. Hey, you want to take off and explore?) Mizu was not in the mood for her trainer's boring conversations. She lifted her head to glare at the mention of training sessions. It would be a laugh to see this girl try and tame her.

Ezekiel erased the white board and wrote. 'Have a mock battle with a stronger pokemon, preferly a type that she is weak against. That should at least bring her down a couple of notches and mellow her out.'
The bulbasaur shook his head, why would he wanted to leave? "Buuuulbasaur" (No thanks)

Kiarei's eyes brightened up. "That's perfect! Hey, how about you and your Bulbasaur battle us? If you don't mind?" She knew that a Bulbasaur would be strong against Mizu, and hopefully knock her down a few pegs. This could turn out really good for her. "I mean, it'll give you to some training to, right?"
Mizu glared at Palmer for a second, annoyed that he wouldn't go with her. Then she shrugged it off as she heard her trainer mention a battle. Heh. She thought that this Bulbasaur could beat her? Yeah Right! Mizu would never let that happen.

The man looked from Kiarei then to his bulbasaur, and back again as he consider somethings. Palmer wasn't a fighting pokemon, but it does of course help if his pokemon keeps in shape. Wiping down the white board as he thought, maybe he should start 'shutting up' with his recommendations with pokemon behavior, just because he knew what to do, didn't meant he had to tell it to people. 'Very well, I am sure it would be good for Palmer as i do need him to stay healthy.'
Palmer nuzzled his head under Ezekiel's elbow and grinned up at him. They were gonna do something fun, right? Right?

Kiarei smiled at him. "Thanks! I'm still a bit new here, so is there any special place to battle? Or do we just fight outside?" Despite the self-tour she did of the building, there was little that stood out in her memory. A battle/training area was not something she remembered.
Mizu jumped up into Kiarei's lap again, though there wasn't any coffee this time. She was anxious to get battling already and she shifted excitedly. "Squirtle!" (Let's go!) she exclaimed. Kiarei chuckled and gave Mizu a quick pat on the head, cautious about getting her hand ripped off. Luckily Mizu was too distracted to notice.

Ezekiel wiped and wrote. 'There is a battle facility in the building, I believe its early enough that no one will be there. If you care to follow me...' He showed her the white board, turning away to pour himself another cup of coffee before putting the board away and picking up the cup. He went to stand by the door and arched an eyebrow as if saying 'lets go'
Palmer picked up his tennis ball and run after his trainer, running around him. They were gonna have fun! They were gonna have fun!

Kiarei nodded. This would be perfect for training. "Sound good, I'm coming!" She stood up with Mizu in her arms and hurried towards the door to catch up to him. His Bulbasaur, she noticed, looked really cute with that tennis ball in his mouth. She thought he seemed excited to, and wondered if he knew they were going to battle.
Mizu didn't mind that Kiarei was carrying her for now. She just wanted to get there as fast as possible. It was time to kick some butt! She waited impatiently for the guy to lead her human to wherever they were going.

Ezekiel drank his coffee thoughtfully as he walked down the halls with the other rocket tailing him, his dark eyes watched as Palmer ran before him. They hadn't battle against as of yet, but they had had a couple of training seasons.
After a couple more turns and halls, he open a door that lead into training area. The room had its floor packed with dirt and had white-painted marks of yours average battle field. However, the field itself was plain without no rocks, trees or anything whatsoever to work as cover.
The man point Kiarei to one end and he walked off to the other end, his bulbasaur handed him the tennis ball, which was pocket quickly in turn to get out his Rocket Pokedex.

Kiarei followed Ezekiel silently, a small smile still on her face. This would be hers and Mizu's first battle. She could feel excitement bubbling up inside of her, and she could understand what Mizu was feeling now. She took her place at the other end of the field and let the Squirtle out of her arms to take her place.
Mizu ran out into the field, waiting for the Bulbasaur. She eyed him carefully, shifting to different places on the field. She could hardly stand still.

Palmer took his place on the field, shaking in excitement, they were gonna battle! Finally!
Ezekiel rose his hand to indicate when the match will start. Closing each finger slowly. 5...4....3....2.....1
Streching out his other arm, he press a button in his pokedex and the machine called out. "Vine Whip." He pressed the button again so it wouldn't go on to explain the attack.
Palmer's vines shoot out as the little bulbasaur moved forward, the veins coming down at a high velocity down towards the squirtle
