Picking up her beach bag, Sel smiled at Mark, Jack and Brian and returned Ri and Ryan to their pokeballs, despite protests from the former. "I just caught a Horsea!" she exclaimed happily, holding up the ball and grinning, "but it was injured...I think it had been paralysed by Ryan's thunderbolt from before...so I'm going to take it up to the Pokemon Centre and pick up Blu while I'm there. But I'll be back shortly, so don't leave!" she crouched down next to Mark under the pretence of folding up her beach towel. "And Mark...Valorie still seems rather shaken by the whole thing...just, take care of her yeah?" she gave him a last smile and walked off towards campus.
What a day, she thought as she walked. So much drama...who'd have thought it! A good day overall, despite the attack, a new pokemon and getting to know everyone that bit more - had to be good! And she couldn't wait to pick Blu up and introduce Horsea to the gang...they'd love her, she knew it. Her team had been quite sorely missing a water-type for a while - Blu's ice attacks didn't carry the same type weightings - and so she was looking forward to training with Horsea. The afternoon was moving into evening, and there was a cool breeze around the school - Sel had her shorts and a loose cardigan in her bag, so she decided to change in the bathrooms at the Centre.
As she walked through the automatic doors of the Pokemon Centre, Nurse Joy smiled at her. "He's ready for you!" she said, as though reading Sel's mind, looking confused as Sel placed 3 pokeballs on the desk. "Thank you Nurse Joy, but these Pokemon need healing too, if you wouldn't mind." she said and Nurse Joy nodded, taking the pokeballs and placing them in her healing machine. "They'll be a couple of minutes, if you could take a seat," Sel nodded and went and changed in a bathroom, pulling her shorts and cardigan on over her bathing suit. When she emerged, she noticed that Nurse Joy had a rather large box for her next to her pokeballs. "All done...and this, this box has a couple of disposable barbeques and some sausages, burgers, chicken and some food for your pokemon. I heard that you and your friends had had a pretty tough day, so I sent over to the Mart and got these packed up for you." Sel was touched and thanked Nurse Joy wholeheartedly, releasing Ri to carry the box. Well-rested, Ri was full of energy and grabbed the box, rushing out of the Pokemon Centre. "RI! WAIT UP!" Sel shouted, saying goodbye to Nurse Joy and running out of the Pokemon Centre after Ri.
At Ri's pace, they were back at the beach in no time. "Hey guys! Look what Nurse Joy sent over," she set about unpacking the box, "BBQ's, sausages, chicken, and even some pokeblocks!! Umm..." she hesitated, looking at the barbeque with a frown, "does anyone know how to work these things..?"
