gotta shape up [CHALLENGE]

[cold volume]

The Archen swooped around spreading its wings - very gleeful to fight. It dived again at the wooper for another bout. Jasper shouted his commands across the floor with both hands cupped over his mouth - his strategy's pretty obvious and easy to see through.

This was amazing. Watching the fight - so fast. So intense. This was something Zach would never do. Battling, pushing the limits. It hurt, every time he saw Cameron's pokemon take a hit. He wanted to scoop up the baby and hold him close. Instead, he tightly hugged the darling in his arms with a sigh. It relaxed him. Yet, Cameron was doing well! Smiling, Zach lifted the dex and let the data ramble, a laugh slightly. "Good job Cameron!"

It was nice to hear Zachary cheering him on. But it wasn't anywhere near over yet. It may have only been a two versus two battle, but the Archen would be a tougher one to beat, compared to the previous Omanyte, at least.

The Wooper was KNOCKED OUT by the bite. But Cameron sent a new Pokemon out in her place.

It was bird against bird now as the Rufflet burst from his ball into the air. He curiously eyed the opponent, then screeched and prepared to attack. The bird first used SCARY FACE, to limit the opponent's attacks to only one, if it succeeded. Then he charged in with his SUPERPOWER.

The Archen was slammed like a fly on superman's eye as the Rufflet launched itself at it. Aggate collapsed to the ground as the red light swallowed her up.

"Impressive time," Jasper hailed. "You're a real natural at this. I'm glad to give you this here fossil badge. You can only get stronger now," he said jovially, holding the pretty button in his palm for the guy to take. "Real pleasure to battle with you. Hey! Good luck against the scourge!"

The tense muscles in Cameron's body relaxed when he watched the Archen fall. He knew the bird had been a good choice. With that superpower that Samuel had, he was an unstoppable force. Or so he liked to think. It took a few strides to cross the arena and accept the badge from the leader. Cameron was smiling. "And good luck to you, Jasper. Make sure to keep safe if the scourge reach Prosperina. And... thank you."

Politely, Cameron had bowed his head and turned around to start toward the elevator. But he stopped to look for Zachary, and flashed an even brighter smile to his partner. He didn't want to admit it, but he was welling up with excitement over winning his first badge. "Coming along, partner?"

Zach was by the man's side in a moment. He was grinning widely and almost jumped on the other as he tried to wrap his arms around the much larger man. "You did it Cam!" He was grinning widely, pulling away only to kiss the other's forehead. A platonic congratulations for his first badge. For once, he felt like the older brother in their situation - forehead affection for a job well done. "Let's go!" Zach shared the excitement. Nothing more he wanted than his only friend, and family at this point, to do than succeed.
