 What last gleam from the sun was quickly dipping below the horizon, the sky dimming from a dark blue, so an inky black, specked heavily with tiny white beads of light. It was far from silent however, the rushing and pulsing of waves pounding onto the sand and rolling up along the beach, partnered with the popping and crackling of burning wood. A stick controlled by the dark blond haired light eyed Grunt poked at the logs settled in the sand, settled next to her hand, hidden by the darkness around, his rings catching most of the light from the fire, being the only thing that really stood out on the dark pokemon. In a couple of days she would be getting ready for her task as a Rocket. And man… she was excited. Nervous of course, but there was no way she was going to let that stop her! To celebrate, and to try and appease her much more nervous friend and neighbor, she took Kofuku, and there pokemon to the beach, watching the sunset into the darkness, staying warm by the fire. she had kept her mouth shut about the mission, mostly because she didn't know a whole lot herself. but, it wasn't a secret that she was going on one. Kofuku knew Faleen's schedule just as well as she did, sometimes better.

 Kofuku had a smile on her face, but it was more of a cheap, plastic one than a true happy smile. Her best friend was leaving for a rather dangerous mission. Granted, Kofuku would have been joining the group as well if she'd had some decently strong pokemon, but that wasn't going to be the case. Instead, she was going to have to sit alone in her room hoping her friend would come home in one piece. Hiromi and Gizmo were bounding around their feet, kicking up sand as they played. Nina, the newest addition to the group, was busy not being outside of her pokeball. "So.... it's pretty out...."

Faleen made a small hum of agreement, pulling the stock back to lay her hands in her lap, looking up to watch as the sky only grew darker.
sighing softly in content, then turned her attention to Kofuku, she knew her friend was not taking this well. Faleen could read Kofuku just as easily.
"its going to be okay you know." she said after a while, trying to reassure her.

Kofuku didn't look at Faleen, but stared at the waves. Sighing a littlem she brushed her hair back. "It better damn well be. I swear, if anything serious happens to you, I don't care if he's the head hancho here; Seth will be a 'dead hancho' by the time I'm done with him." Looking at Faleen, she smirked. "And you know I'd have the balls to try it too, so you better not come back in a body bag, ok?"

Faleen assumed it was a bit of an exaggeration, but the thought made Faleen smile, and make a small noise of amusement through her nose.
"trust me, I have no intentions of dying out there Kofuku." she stretched her arms out, perking her chest before she flopped back down into the sand, resting a hand her Umbreon's brow.
"This is exactly what we signed up for Kofuku, I never expected anything different. I'm just a grunt, the sooner I get used to this, the easier its going to get." she tilts her head to look over at Kofuku.
"if I ever want to get to Agent status." she offered a smile "don't get yourself into trouble over it Kofuku, I want this."

Kofuku looked down, playing with her fingernails a bit, then looked back up. "Promise me you won't get hurt too bad...? You know I'll have nothing else to do while you're gone but worry about you, right?" She knew that they'd signed up for this when they joined the organization, but it still didn't ease her mind knowing that Faleen was going out on such a mission so soon.

Faleen's smile faltered a little, continuing to watch Kofuku.
"... You know I can't promise that Kofuku... this is going to be my first mission, I don't know whats going to happen" shifting to push herself back up, supported by her elbows.
"I hope you don't worry about me, I would be much more at ease thinking that you'll be setting up pranks or stealing from our favorite shops while I'm gone"

"No promises..." Leaning over and grabbing Faleen in for a nuggie, Kofuku grinned. "But lets make the best of this, ok? I need to have my Faleen-fix to last me for however long this thing is going to last plus recovery time."

"AH!" kicking up a bit of sand when she was grabbed and nuggied upon. She lost her ballance, half falling onto her Umbreon, who simply jumped to his feet and moved out of the way of the two rough housing girl.
"okay okay!" she laughed, reaching up to push on Kofuku's shoulder. "I'm free all tonight, so we can stay out here as long as you want."

Grinning even wider, Kofuku fell backwards with Faleen and layed in the sand giggling like a child. "Good, because I brought some matches and a couple of sleeping bags. I figured we could have a big bonfire with all the driftwood we can find.
As soon as Umbreon was up, Hiromi and Gizmo both pounced on him playfully. The two were at the beach! And best of all, it wasn't for training or for stealing or anything; it was for fun!

"we're going to sleep out here hum? be right on the sand for high tide?" she joked, grinning over at her friend.
"did you bring any marshmallows? for a fire that big we need sweets you know." Faleen pointed out
Umbreon's eyes widened when two much smaller pokemon pounced on him suddenly.
"UM!" he barked, startled. and shocked they would do that.

Kofuku grinned and popped open her pack, pulling out marshmallows, chocolate bars and gram crackers. "I also have hot dogs in here too if you wanna roast some wieners... or pretend it's some guy's and set it on fire. I'll probably imagine it's Seth's and let it burn, baby buuuurn!" Getting up, she held a hand out to Faleen. "Shall we get some driftwood?"
Hiromi giggled, nipping Umbreon's ear gently. "Didja miss me?" Her tail wagged happily behind her. Gizmo, however, was more intrusive and was climbing up onto Umbreon's head.

Clapping her hands together a few times to knock the sand from them as she sat up.
since she started her Pokemon training, she's had to get used to sleeping outside, traveling, that was a bonus about joining Rockets, she had a bed in the HQ, under a roof... well the roof was somewhere up there. thought the levels of floors.
she looked over to her Umbreon as he was harassed by the two smaller pokemon, but just grinned a little, listening to Kofuku even though she wasn't looking at her.
though Kofuku said something that just surprised Faleen into looking over at her.
"... okay I'm not going to bother keeping that forced imagine in my mind." she said with an awkward look. "thanks Kofuku" she said reaching up to place both hands over the side of her head.
"why do you seem to dislike the commander so much anyway?"
"like a thorn in my side" he said, easily standing back up, shaking his head a little when he felt the Pichu on it, grabbing Hiromi by her scruff to drag her up off of him.

Shrugging a little, she grinned to Faleen. "Well, he's just such an a** all the time. I mean, seriously, does the guy even know how to have some good, old-fashioned fun? I mean, he's cute and all, but he just rubs me the wrong way, and I swear you'd have to do surgery to get that stick wedged up his butt." She held a finger up. "Don't think I won't respect him to take orders though; there's a reason he's a higher rank than me... I just don't think I'll ever take him seriously in normal situations."
Seeing some wood farther down the beach, she waved her hand. "C'mon, I see some good fuel down there."
Hiromi wriggled a little when she was grabbed by her scruff. "Awww, c'mon, Umbreon! You know you'd be sad if I dissapeared!"
"Ohmygod, it's moving!" Gizmo clung to Umbreon's ears when the dark pokemon shook it's head. It was rather obvious the little pokemon had gotten into something sugary before the trip.

Faleen shook her head with a small sigh "Kofuku, you can't say that. he might not be very nice." she was aware of how much of an understatement that was. "but he's amazing at what he does, he's not here to socialize, he's here to do his job."
She looked over to Kofuku quite seriously "don't go messing with him Kofuku, someone like that can really mess people like us up."
looking over when she said something about fuel, Faleen tilted her head, pushing herself up to go help her get it.
"how big are we making this thing?" she asked, amused.
"and how did you come to that conclusion?" he asked her through a muffled voice, plopping her back down and shaking his head again
"Don't you shock me!"
