to the sea;

Her story starts during her early adolescent years. Young and naive, she was drawn to Team Aqua out of empathy, believing the expansion of water beneficial. A world of water was all she knew, her life spent isolated in Sootopolis. Even the not so faraway Lilycove and Mossdeep were exotic to her wide-eyed gaze.[break][break]

Fortune favored her when the Grunt she'd spoken with asked her to become a part of their team. The young girl obliged and left her home in the middle of the night whilst her parents slept. At the time she considered this normal—her folks didn't think she was ready to embark on a trip outside of the crater. But she was, so her mind was made up.[break][break]

song of the moon;

It wasn't long before she learned of Team Aqua's true character. The revelation shocked her and placed her out of commission for a few days. She spent the time musing over the circumstances, eventually arriving at a decision: Though she'd made a grave error, she planned to continue following her superiors' orders. Otherwise, she'd be going against her parents' lessons about owning up to mistakes.[break][break]

Her breaking point came after Archie absorbed the Blue Orb. Realizing there was no future for her if she remained with Team Aqua any longer, she fled from Hoenn, utilizing her Crobat's speed to carry her off to another region. She felt no regret toward leaving her family behind—she rationalized they'd be in danger if she remained. Far as they knew, she was no longer in this world.[break][break]

rusty key;

Believing she needed to be far from her home region, she spent a few days in one land and then traveled to another, each time relying on her Crobat for transportation. During her stay in Fuchsia City, she developed a love for Poison-type Pokémon. They were, in a word, intelligent. She couldn't really explain why she perceived this; it just was.[break][break]

She spent more time in Fuchsia than any other place since her departure, where she learned more about the Poison type and captured Pokémon that were part Poison. The girl also developed an interest in the Kanto region's history and thus pursued literature pertaining to its past.[break][break]

After a few months, she finally left the region behind, deciding to seek out Poison types elsewhere and delve into other regions' histories. She even backtracked to Hoenn, but kept a low profile in case someone somehow recognized her. Aside from her homeland, she'd spend no more than two-three months in a single region before moving onto the next. In her opinion, it was enough time for her to acquire and train new Pokémon, as well as absorb the region's history.[break][break]

Some time after she'd turned sixteen, she decided it was time for her to finally settle somewhere. Her region of choice was Lyeant, which she'd fallen in love with as soon as she stepped foot into Irisia Town. Yet she didn't select it as her new home—it brought back too many memories of her time in Sootopolis and as a member of Team Aqua—and instead settled in Ishya Town (which, incidentally, reminded her of Lavaridge).[break][break]

Most of her days were spent either studying, training her Pokémon, or occasionally traveling from one place to the next. Yet she didn't remain anywhere longer than she did Ishya. She struck up a friendship with the resident Gym Leader, who coached her in the ways of properly training a monotype team. They taught her how to surpass the Poison type's weak points and balance her team such that no more than half was susceptible to its greatest counter check, the Ground type. They were her ideal role model, and the sole reason she set her sights upon someday becoming a Gym Leader herself.[break][break]

ice world;

The rise of Imum and the destruction of Lyeant was ubitquitous knowledge amongst most, if not all the region's current residents. Ishya was the first to go; she only survived because her instructor helped her safely escape. No word came from them since, so she assumed they either died during the chaos or continued to remain in hiding. Once things quieted down, she aligned herself with the Pokémon Association, wishing to help with the region's reconstruction.[break][break]

But the Association had different plans for her. Her affiliation with Ishya's lost Gym Leader was known amongst a number of the higher-ups. With no one to utilize the gym, they unwittingly made her desire reality by offering to take the previous leader's place. She humbly accepted and, after a brief period of instruction, returned to the town as its Gym Leader.[break][break]

Between her efforts to restore Ishya and the time spent running the gym (which, admittedly, was very little), she took up alchemy as an avocation, utilizing both her Pokémon's toxins and plants from all over the world to develop concoctions wth various effects. Amongst those were healing and ailing potions, which she sold to help provide revenue for Ishya's reconstruction. During this time, her position as Gym Leader boosted her eminence exponentially, though most knew her by name rather than appearance. She claimed to feel honored, but in reality was quite frightened that she'd be sought out and murdered. Her paranoia twisted her trust in others, yet she continued to carry an honorable air about her so no one would be able to detect weakness.[break][break]

At present, she maintains this routine. Well aware of current events, she knows she may eventually be called away to help deal with the ever-growing strife. After all, the Pokémon Association's cause was truly noble, a complete 180 of Team Aqua's. And this time, she was confident she'd allied with the right group.

>>> TL;DR

there is nothing left to take, but i still try to reach. try to swallow it all down, yet i can't seem to breathe. just a single pill of mine, nothing else would suffice - i take it in, now i'm alive. my phone is set on lock, and i don't really care. there's a tangle and a knot that i cannot repair. i'm a tragedy, i'm ugly, i'm trying to hide. i say "hello", then wave "goodbye". see me fall down - let me die here slowly. nothing goes right, not a trace of honestly. i'm to blame, so i'll remain. black, white; day, night; it's all the same. see it run down - cut away, no worries. say no more. i can surely say that i've had enough. i still refuse to believe.
