Misty sighed as she walked down the abandoned dirt trail....alone apart from the Zangoose at her side. He was a recent addition to her Pokemon line-up, and a little different from her usual water types....but the poor thing had been so scared when she found him that she couldn't just leave him. Though sadly whatever he had gone through had left him with a fear of Pokeballs....so that was why she allowed it to walk alongside her openly. Still, it wasn't the same as the human companionship she'd enjoyed a few years ago with Ash and Brock....she missed those days....but she had to make her own way now. She couldn't spend her life travelling like that, just watching the others grow and develop as trainers while she stood at the sidelines. No....she had left because she needed the chance to improve aswell, and she could only do that on her own.
"Hm?" Misty blinked as she looked up, dark clouds beginning to form overhead, the distant rumble of thunder starting to echo in her ears. "Oh man....this looks pretty bad....we should find some shelter..." Fortunately, there was a cave not too far from the path, and as Misty turned to run towards it the rain began to fall, gently for a few moments, then suddenly began to pour. By the time Misty reached the cave, she was absolutely soaked. "Oh geez.....look at this...I'm totally soaked....probably gonna catch a cold now..." She grumbled and shook herself off a little, then looked over at Zangoose. "You ok little guy? Guess we're gonna have to stay here and just wait for the storm to end huh? Could probably be a couple of hours..."
