Wooo adventure? Barrett made his way down route 101 with a bit of a bored look plastered on his face. While he was one who typically loved being outside he was a bit bored at the moment, nothing even remotely important or interesting had happened yet. The only thing that was even notable was the weird egg that Professor...Professoooor...whats his face gave him.
Barrett had honestly forgot the Professor's name already seeing as it was a pretty short encounter. At the moment the weird egg was placed carefully in the boy's black backpack.
Currently Barrett was wearing just a plain ol white t-shirt and black pants, not sure what the weather would be like he figured at least only half of him would be cold this way. He'd let out a slight groan as he walked along the route, not seeing anything noteworthy at all at the moment. This route was pretty damn boring so far.
While he walked straight down the route Barrett would eventually begin to look right down at the ground. Not bothering to pay attention to anything around him. Of course it was only due to the fact of how bored he was, thinking that he wouldn't even run into anyone or anything for the rest of the route.

“ I TRIED TO EAT AN ORANGE TODAY, TOO, BUT AGAIN, IT WAS SOUR AND I CRIED. BECAUSE IT'S UNLIKE ME TO LEAVE ANY BEHIND, I ATE IT ALL; I LOVED IT... ”
There's a calm air she always fell in love with. It's great to be envelop in. The illusion of nature it has with the people around. It's bliss and sweet. She's willing and wanting to know more. Self-indulgent with nature. The berries and the many fruits. Bliss.
She sports a red coat, fitting for what would happen next. White shirt and a plaid skirt underneath with her boots. Boots, boots. That's all that matters for her. Anything fits the bill. Unlike most trainers who have their pokemon out and about, she has to keep hers inside unless if there's water. Lapras. A rarity to find in the wild.
Her direction is quite odd, and before she could tell what was going to happen next, she bumps into a person! She stumbles backwards a bit. "Darn it watch where you're going!" she huffs. This would have been better if she was more than willing to listen to some form of explanation.
Black hair. Crap. He looks like a trouble maker. "Eh, sorry for that." she mumbles.
Barrett almost instantly tensed up as someone bumped into him, his face turning a bit red at first. He was almost instantly pissed off from it, how rude was it that this person wasn't looking where they were going and bumped into him. The boy balled his fist up for a moment before releasing it once he realized it was a girl. It wouldn't exactly be good to just hit a girl, it wouldn't be good at all if he did. Might get in a lot of trouble actually.
"Oh sor-" Barrett began to say before the girl spoke, which only caused his eyes to widen a bit. He recognized that voice, its been a couple years since they saw each other last but hell they hung around each other enough for him to remember it. "Wait, Charlie? Charlie lababa?" He said, still not being able to pronounce her last name correctly at all. Barrett's been screwing her last name up so much for so long that even he wasn't able to tell if he screwed her last name up on purpose or not.
He squinted his eyes for a moment as he looked her over before opening them back up "It is you!" Barrett said with a chuckle and a big grin, he honestly was a bit excited to see her. It's been a few years since he last saw her so it was only natural to be excited right? He shifted around in his spot and slipped his hands down into his pockets as he stood there, giving her time to say something instead of rambling,.

“ I TRIED TO EAT AN ORANGE TODAY, TOO, BUT AGAIN, IT WAS SOUR AND I CRIED. BECAUSE IT'S UNLIKE ME TO LEAVE ANY BEHIND, I ATE IT ALL; I LOVED IT... ”
Ugh, so, there is a shitty bastard here who I knew in the past. She's not kind in her words, but, she doesn't mean a whole lot when it comes to it. Swears bounces off and her all of the time, if there's a fight she will fight. Her brow furrows together when she bump into the person, not her fault! She was out in wonderland, after all, who wouldn't be when she met Julius Kingston, too bad he didn't come to terms that he was watching porn. Tsk. He was a liar and a pretty face. Eh.
When her name was call out by the person in front of her, she cringes. Ugh, no, fuck, not you, I'm going to go away now. "IT'S LEBEAU YOU MORNON, GET IT RIGHT," she huffs, her cheeks are in a puff. Whether this was on purpose or not, she was already piss off at him for even being alive. What did he want and why was he here boggles her mind. Fuck this.
When she look up at his face, there was a chuckle and a huge whopping dumb grin on his face. If she was suppose to talk it was already gone when she look away and gave him a light punch on the shoulder. She couldn't stay mad at him. She knew him from long ago really. "Dumbass, sometimes I think you have no brain when you say my name wrong."
"What are you doing here in the first place? I thought you and your family stayed in Sinnoh for who knows how long but, whatever."
Small conversation. Not essentially the best, but it would do.
"You know I can't get it right" Barrett hurried up and blurted out as she punched him lightly in the shoulder. Going along with her he'd reach up and rub his shoulder scrunching his face up a bit to act like it actually hurt. He let out a chuckle after that and put his hand back in his pocket, letting her talk before he went ahead and replied.
"Weeell let's see, parents just up and decided to move her a couple years ago, and I was like...17 I think so I legally couldn't just stay back in Sinnoh." Barrett said with a quick nod, what he meant to say sounded a lot better in his head then it did coming out.
After that Barrett would stand there for a moment, thinking of what to say next, honestly he had missed seeing her around. He knew he couldn't just go ahead and admit that right now though, that'd be waaay too cheesy of a thing to say right now. With the grin on his face disappearing for now Barrett shrugged his shoulders and decided to answer something she already said. "Well its not my fault your last name's so hard to say." He said with a smirk, shifting around where he was standing a bit.

“ I want to forget you, but you're an idiot for not noticing how much i hated you...forgive me”
"Of course you can't get it right, idiot," she shakes her head and sighs. Sarcasm lace in her words as she then closes her eyes for a moment. She would have been better off elsewhere in the world. Maybe go back to the forest and interact once more with the wild life. She's rowdy after all.
As he talks, she nods her head, well, she can't blame him really. But I can blame him for bumping into me, that stupid moron. She huffs and wraps her hands around her shoulder. Really, he still has a home to go to and she doesn't. Fucking pathetic. I'm a survivor at least. She looks at him again and wonders what it must have been like to be welcomed into a family. Is it warming? Tender? Would she be able to tell the person how much she wants to feel the warmth for her? A lump in her throat, she clenches her arm. God, I hate this already.
"Well, Barrett, what are you? A trainer like you always brag about or are you a dazzling coordinator?" she smirks up to him. She knew he had to be a trainer, he looks like one after all. Whether he was in Magma or Aqua, she could really care less. If it doesn't effect her, she'll be more than happy to go on with her life and enjoy it in another region. After all, she has no place in the world like she thinks she does. "Come on let's take a walk," she says as she releases her hands from her shoulders and began to walk.
Her hands this time across her chest, her face is stern. "So you decided to travel because of what, Barrett?" Her heart beats, a bit fast.
Barrett would reach up and rub the back of is neck after Charlie asked what he was. He honestly had completely forgot how he used to brag about becoming some great trainer and being the Elite Four Champion. The idea did make sense to him back then, why just stop at being a great trainer instead of thinking about becoming a more known one, being famous probably had it's perks right?
"Weeeeell" Barrett droned out as he took his hand away from the back of his neck, slipping it down into his pocket once more. "I'm a breeder actually, go figure right?"
Once the two of the started walking Barrett couldn't help but absentmindedly scoot a bit closer to Charlie as they walked. Honestly he did miss just hanging around with Charlie and talking to her.
"You know, catching pokemon to breed and what not, see the world, the usual shit." The boy added, chuckling to himself for a moment or two before looking over at Charlie again. "Well? What about you?"
“ I want to forget you, but you're an idiot for not noticing how much i hated you...forgive me”
She should have known better really. Barrett Cole, part time moron and part time friend was a breeder. Hah, so I win the bet. Dumbass. There was no bet, she was just saying so in mind. In the past, Barrett used to brag on how much he would be the best trainer there was and best all of them; she found it annoying, but, it's alright for her. She knew fully well that he wasn't going to be on the same road as her. Why would he? He's a completely different person after all.
She shifts her feet a bit as she continues to walk again. Over and over, she wants to expect something more in life. It's just how repulsive how humans attack and capture and train ruthlessly. It's savagery... None at all to say, the girl then sighs.
"Usual shit, huh?" she shakes her head. And here she thought she had a potty mouth. Well...I will probably have one of those days really... "I'm a trainer, so, sucks to be you, I know I wanted to be part of the Rangers, but...ever since I .. erh, decided to leave, I couldn't be a Ranger. Because complication with myself and that I want to do whatever the hell I want."
She's proud of her decision. But, who gives a fuck about that right?
"Eh well being a Ranger's probably pretty boring anyway." Barrett would say with a quick nod of his head, slipping his hands down into his pockets. "I mean you gotta follow orders and try to chase after criminals, and use that stupid uhhh..."
He added before stopping in place and holding his arm out, spinning it around in circle's like a Ranger would use their capture stylus. "That stupid uhhh you know that stylus thing they carry? You'd have to use that stupid thing instead of pokeballs or something."
Once he was done with his little demonstration, Barrett would slip his hands back into his coat pocket, giving her a small shrug of his shoulders. He normally didn't act this 'silly', meaning the whole stylus demonstration thing. But he wanted to see if he could make Charlie laugh again, he hadn't heard her laugh in awhile.
“ I want to forget you, but you're an idiot for not noticing how much i hated you...forgive me”
She knew she should have left. Barrett was a nice guy and all, but she just needed to leave. To get away from him and people in general. Her violet eyes glow as she clutches her arm a bit. She doesn't like to be criticised. Especially by a friend of hers. Regardless of how close they are, she would get defensive.
"I still think it's pretty cool to be a ranger though..." she mumbles to herself as she then looks to the side. Who cares. Not like her. To say she's nervous is a straight up lie. The girl was not impressed actually.
"We're close to the Oldale or whatever..." she said, her voice now clear. "You can go somewhere else..."
Don't leave just a bit. Let me hear your voice once more.
"I mean that's cool if you think it's cool, just not my thing." Barrett quickly blurted out after Charlie replied to his whole stupid stylus demonstration. He honestly felt a little bit bad since she still seemed to care about being a Ranger.
Who knows maybe she'd end up getting her chance to join their ranks one day. 'You can go somewhere else...' The words kind of hurt Barrett honestly, he bit his lip a bit. Debating on what he should do, he thought they might of actually been getting along again.
Heh serves him right for thinking that right? "Whatever Charlie.." Barrett simply mumbled out before turning around where he was standing and beginning to walk back down the route away from her.
