"Leon…we're heading the wrong way." A red colored Charmander said, he was wearing a brown colored sash, and was walking along the path behind Leon, a bagon who wore a Gold colored scarf. "I know where I'm going Pyro, just be quiet and follow behind me" he grumbled.

Pyro had doubted Leon's judgments before, but was never able to make good ones himself "Alright."

Leon looked up as he saw clouds gathering "Looks like it is going to rain soon" he said, Pyro started to get frantic and pick up his pace "I-I don't like rain Leon!" he said getting far ahead of the Bagon.

Leon rolled his eyes and called out to the worried Charmander "Pyro watch where you're going! Slow down and wait for me!" he warned. Pyro was so determined to escape the rain that he didn't watch where he was going and he bumped into someone and fell onto the ground. "Ow…" Pyro said picking himself up off the ground.

"I'm sorry, are you alright?" he heard someone say, he could see an emerald, thorny colored hand reach out to him. Pyro was about to grab ahold of it of it, until he looked up at the person above him. It was a shiny emerald and orange colored Druddigon, wearing what looked like a purple cape tied on his neck. Pyro quickly retracted his hand… and then screamed.

Hearing his partner's scream, Leon quickly ran up, and saw Pyro on the ground continuing his fit and the Druddigon, looking down at him. He still had his hand held out, and he was looking extremely confused. "U-Uh…are you OK?" he asked Pyro, Pyro quickly backed up on the ground…still screaming.

Leon quickly walked up to the Druddigon and readied a Dragon Claw "Get back." He threatened. The Druddigon backed up nervous " W-Wait you've got it all wrong I was just-" he was cut off by a shout.

"Jadius! I told you before, slow down!"

The one named Jadius turned his head, Leon looked behind him and saw a Bagon he was deeply green colored and he wore a purple colored scarf he was coming up behind Jadius. He looked clearly unhappy, he also had a look like he was ready to fight anyone at any time.  

Leon rolled his eyes "Oh great…" he thought, this was going to indeed be a long day.

"But Atlas, if we don't hurry…" Jadius tried to speak, but Atlas cut him off "I told you before, slow down!"

Leon looked at the two…and then back at Pyro who still refused to cease his screaming at the sight of Jadius. Leon walked over to him and smacked him, and Pyro instantly stopped. Leon turned around, and Atlas was right in his face.

"What's your problem?" Leon questioned, refusing to show weakness.

"You're the one with the problem Goldie" Atlas said, giving a cocky smirk.

Leon pushed against his head "Are you seriously going to try and fight with me?"

Atlas shoved right back at his head "Why try and fight with someone as weak as you?"

Leon was about to reach behind his back and take out his sword but then he remembered "Damn…I left that back home…now I regret telling Pyro this was a new start and we didn't need our weapons …wait…I don't need it to take this guy down a fe- Leon couldn't finish his thought, he was distracted that he didn't even see Atlas slam into him from behind.  

Leon landed forward on the ground and skid across it he picked himself up "You arrogant…little son of a…" he began. Oddly enough Leon looked up…and then grinned "Uh-oh…" Pyro said getting back, "Leon…I thought you said you were going to try to best not to fight with others!" he objected. Leon's grin widened "He started it Pyro…and I'm not going to back down from this, I'm going to enjoy this."

Leon held out his hands and ran at Atlas with Dragon Claw, Atlas picked up speed again and dodged, and was behind Leon. Leon had already figured out why and turned and struck him with Dragon Claw.

* * *

Pyro watched as the battle unfolded in front of him, Jadius sat down beside him and watched too. He turned to Pyro and smiled friendly, Pyro finally realized…Jadius wasn't going to hurt him in any way. "I'm Pyro." He stated again, holding out his hand. Jadius shook it "Jadius."

"Does this normally happen?" Pyro asked, Jadius sighed "More or less yes, he tries to pick a fight with anyone." He said, rolling his eyes in annoyance. "What's with the cape?" Pyro asked grinning a bit, Jadius turned and stood up and did a heroic pose. Pyro started laughing "I see, I see…"

The two continued several conversations…while watching their partners go at it.

* * *  

Leon quickly used Dig and dug underground; Atlas turned around but didn't see him. Leon quickly popped up to the side, Atlas used Dragon Breath and Leon quickly dived back into the hole. Leon grinned getting a plan he started making more holes around Atlas. Atlas continued striking around him with Dragon Breath, but Leon kept popping under and then popping up.

"What's wrong Atlas, can't hit me can ya!" he taunted

"Oi, stand still you little…" Atlas growled, getting frustrated

"Catch me if ya can!" Leon said, diving back under.

Atlas continued using Dragon Breath as Leon continued popping up and disappearing, this was infuriating him, and the Bagon stomped on the ground. "Stand still damn it!"
Leon popped up again "You're not really smart are you?" he said laughing  

Leon quickly used the opportunity to jump out of the whole and launch himself at Atas and use Dragon Claw again. Atlas quickly disappeared and struck behind Leon again. "That's what he's doing! Arial Ace! Leon figured out, sliding on the ground again.

"You're fast." Leon complimented

Atlas grinned at him and folded his arms "Give up?"

Leon opened his mouth and started charging up a Fire Blast "Never."

Atlas's eyes widened…this was gonna hurt.

* * *

Pyro stood in front of Jadius as Jadius looked down at him, they were staring at each other with serious looks. "Ready to do this?" Pyro said holding his hand up. "You're sure you want to do this Pyro? I won't back down from a challenge." Jadius said grinning, Pyro nodded. "I'm ready when you are." Jadius held up his hand "OK."

The wind started to blow as the atmosphere around them started to change.

3…2…1! Rock Paper Scissors GO!

Pyro held out his hand and made scissors with his fingers, and Jadius held out his hand flat like paper. "I won!" Pyro said dancing around and laughing. Jadius frowned and looked confused "But all I can do is paper!" he said swinging his arms.

Pyro grinned getting an idea "Since I won…tell me an embarrassing secret about Atlas." Jadius tapped his chin uncertain if he should…but he shrugged "Alright…uh…" Jadius started to think of something, and then he snapped his fingers.

"Atlas wore a sundress!"

Pyro's eyes widened, and then he erupted in roars of laughter "A-ARE YOU KIDDING ME HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA!" he fell onto the ground and started rolling around. Jadius chuckled, Pyro stopped laughing enough to yell out…

Hey Leon! Atlas wore a sundress!

* * *  

Leon heard Pyro's shout and stopped his attack, and started laughing he pointed at Atlas. Atlas's face turned from green to red from embarrassment, he shot a deathly glare at Jadius.  

Jadius, when I'm done with this guy, you're dead!

Jadius's chuckling stopped "Crap…"

"W-W-W-W-Wait a sec!" Leon said, trying to catch his breath and stop laughing "You wore a SUNDRESS?" Atlas rolled his eyes and growled "Just be quiet!"

"Let's just finish this." Leon said with a grin, holding out his hands and preparing Dragon Claw again "You seem to be fast…but you don't have a good defense." He said, panting out a little it was clear he was getting tired.

"Look at yourself why don't you" Atlas said, he held out his hands as they started to catch fire.  

* * *

"Looks like the battle is reaching its end." Jadius said folding his arms and standing up. "Who do you think is gonna win?" Pyro asked.

Jadius shrugged "Could be anyone."

Pyro looked up as the clouds above started to darken…it was going to rain any moment now

* * *

Leon and Atlas quickly ran at each other and then struck, and flash of lighting struck the ground as the two appeared on opposite sides of each other. Wind started picking up violently…Leon smirked and so did Atlas.

They both hit the ground, and it started raining.

Pyro and Jadius walked over to the two Bagon "Looks like it's a draw" Pyro said, Jadius nodded.

Leon and Atlas stood up struggling a bit, and smirking at each other, they both knew this wouldn't do at all…but they'd accept it for now.

"Uh-oh…" Pyro and Jadius both said, were they about to go at it again?

Leon held out his hand in respect, Atlas looked at him for a long time, before he reached out his own hand and shook it.

"How about a rematch sometime?" Leon asked.

"I won't accept a tie." Atlas said.

"Can't you guys do this again sometime later?" Pyro said complaining a bit "Leon…you're the one who said we had to become better people and be a rescue team…so let's hurry up and get there." Leon gained back his stamina and nodded "Alright."

Pyro looked up at Jadius, Jadius looked down at him, and they gave each other a hug, Jadius however seemed to be too caught up in the moment and hugged Pyro too tightly.

"Urk!" Pyro shouted out as something snapped in his body.

Jadius quickly realizing what he did put Pyro down "Oops…sorry" he apologized, Leon tapped his foot on the ground "Now look what you did, you broke my partner!" he said annoyed.
Pyro stood up "Uh…I'm OK…I think…ow." He said rubbing his back.

Leon quickly ran ahead along the path, Pyro looked at him and then turned to Jadius and Atlas and waved "I think we'll meet again." He said waving as he ran along following behind Leon.

Jadius smiled "Well that was fun." Atlas rolled his eyes…and then cracked out a smile "That wasn't too bad I guess."

Jadius rubbed the back of his head "Hey Atlas…where are we going again?"

Atlas groaned and did a facepalm as he walked away.

"Hey wait up!" Jadius said running behind him.

* * *

"Hey Leon…that was for the whole "Bagon Pride" thing wasn't it?" Pyro asked.

Leon stopped and shook his head "Nah, I just felt like battling."

Pyro face palmed "You're never gonna change."

Leon laughed as they continued on.
