Time seems to lose meaning as I get lost in watg the liquid move around in my body. Each time the liquid pletes the outline, I feel a slight pulse of energy gathering in my body and the liquid seems to grow slightly in volume each time. It isn’t until I feel a bump against my body that I pull myself out of the state I was in aurn to the nd of the living. It takes me a few seds tister what is going on around me and that my phone is currently ringing. I pick up my phone ahat it is Fnnery calling me. I ahe call, putting it on speaker and pg it upright on the desk so I hear it better as I start getting out of bed.
“Mornin’ Fnnery.”
“M? It’s nearly noon you know! Bea and I are w where you are.”
I tilt my head to the side slightly. “What do you mean it’s almost noon? I just woke up.” I ask in fusion as I take a moment to stretch a little to loosen my muscles. I suddenly hear Fnnery start choking as if she swallowed something wrong. “Are you okay?”
“F-Frost, you turned on a video call…” I hear her mumble something about pining but I don’t quite catch everything she says. I freeze slightly as my miers what she just said and I robotically look down ahat I am still very muaked. As I turn my head slowly towards the phone, I notice she see everything. I make eye tact with her through the phone and notice her blush but she isn’t looking away which causes me to turn pletely red down to my shoulders as I rush over and turn off the video portion of the call.
“S-sorry, I didn’t mean to…” I quietly say after making sure the video is off.
“Ahem, well at least I wasn’t in publid it was me calling instead of some guy. Just be careful okay?” Fnnery chides me lightly but adds in a quiet voice I nearly miss, “Not like I didn’t enjoy the view.”
That just makes me flush even harder as the room suddenly feels much warmer than it did previously. “I’ll keep that in mind” I mutter, not sure art I meant that towards.
“A-anyways, how about getting dressed and joining us for luno need for you to stay in your room all day before your match.”
“I will meet you girls in the lobby in about ten minutes.” I tell her as I hang up the phone. Once I am sure the call ended I sink to the floor feeling equal parts mortified and something else that I couldn’t quite pce at the fact that I just had my body seen by someone else. “How am I going to face her ter…” I whisper ashamedly to myself.
It takes me a moment to calm down and finally stand back up. I quickly go about taking a cold shower, which y flushed body, and theing dressed. As I get dressed, I notice a notification blinking in the er of my eye and focus on it.

As I read the message I uand what happe night. I seemed to have advanced my cultivation stage. What that means for me now, I’m not sure but I don’t feel anything different about me currently. I recall Zephyr into her pokeball and I make sure that I pce my new outfit and makeup in my bag as well to ge into ter before heading down to the lobby to finally start my day.
As I ehe lobby, I see Bea and Fnnery sitting at a table waiting for me. I rush over to them before sitting down at the table and blushing slightly.
“Sorry I’m te, I sort of overslept.” I tell them as I py with the end of my ponytail, making sure I don’t meet Fnnery’s eyes.
“It’s no problem, everyone likes to sleep in on a while. If you train without a break, you end up breaking.” Bea responds.
I look at Bea and nod in agreement as I see Fnnery givieasing smile as her eyes trail along my body, causio shiver slightly at the feeling. It’s not unpleasant but I ’t help but blush more and grab the tablet to order myself some food. We spend the few hours chatting in the lobby, all the while Fnnery gives me a teasing remark every time my blush wears off, causio gre at her by the time it was time for us to head to the gym. Instead of the thirty minutes Bea and Fnnery gave themselves, I decide I want an hour to give myself time to get ready.
I split with them at the door to the gym and go up to the league traihat is manning the desk. Today it is an entleman who smiles warmly when I approach.
“Wele to the Pewter City Gym. How may I assist you?”
“Hello, my name is Frost Oak and I am to battle in about an hour. When I registered three days ago, I was told I would o che as one of my pokemon o be looked over by my sponsor.”
“Alright Ms. Oak, please pce your Pokedex and pokemon on this ser and I will plete yistration.” I do as he says and pce everything into a small box with six round divots oside for pokeballs to sit in. I see him typing and reading something on the s in front of him before he looks back at me a mier. “Everything is all set. Please make sure you grab everything and you ehe waiting room at the end of the hall.”
I give him my thanks and grab my phone and pokeballs before heading down a well lit corridor. At the end of the corridor there is a door with a sign that says “Waiting Room” on it, not like it was hard to miss as it was the only door down this hallway, though I’m sure someone like Zoro could still get lost on the way. Wheer the room, I see three other trainers, two guys and a girl, already there and waiting.
The two guys look at me and nod wheer, one of them goes back to what he was doing but the other stares at me longer. I feel his eyes rake over my body in an unpleasant way and it makes me feel rather disgusted. I give the guy a cold gre that causes him to recoil slightly when he sees my eyes. Looking away from the guy and giving him a cold shoulder as I hear him start to say something and I spot a woman’s bathroom on one wall and quickly disappear into it to get away from the creep.
Once I close the door, I take a deep breath to get rid of the goosebumps that appeared on my skin from the revulsion I felt from that guy’s look. I notice that it is a simple bathroom room, like you would find at home, so I lock the door and head over to the sink where I pull out my outfit and makeup. I quickly take off the skimpy pieces of fabric that I have to call clothes until I find something else, and take a look at the dress to figure out how to put it on.
I ’t seem to find any buttons, zippers or ces so I shrug and start tugging on it and I found the fabric is like tex or spandex and stretches much more than it looks like it should so I step into it as I pull at the neck of the dress. O is around my waist, I slip my arms into the glove like sleeves and finish pulling it up the rest of the way. The neck of the dress fits loosely around my neck but the rest of the fabric gs to my body like a sed skin, atuating every curve I have.
I pull on the heeled boots that make me stand just a few timeters taller and take a look at myself in the mirror. The whites and blues of the outfit make the blue of my hair and eyes stand out even more. Taking a look at my ponytail, I frown as it doesn’t fit the look of the dress so I take the time to ge to a waterfall braid hairstyle. I give myself another look before doing some light makeup and giving my eyes the cat’s eye treatment to make my eyes pop even more. Once finished, I pack everything bato my bag and strap it to my thigh uhe dress where I still access my pokeballs that are attached to it.
Spoiler
[colpse]I take a deep breath and stand up straight, with my shoulders square and tilt my up slightly as I step out of the bathroom, transformed into a valiant knight or warrior queen. As I ehe room again, I feel two pairs of eyes on me again but the room goes pletely silent. I take a gnce around ahat the girl has left for her matd there are only the two guys left in the room. The sound of my footsteps echo loudly in the room as I walk over to a nearby seat and sit dowly with my back straight and hands pced in my p, watg the door as I wait for my match.
“Dude, is that the same chick that came in just a moment ago?” I hear one of the guys quietly ask the other.
“It has to be, no one else came in since she did.”
“Dude, what walked in was a bimbo that hardly wore anything. What came out of that bathroom…” The guy prolongs the sentenot finishing what he was saying. “Think I ask her to step on me?”
“Brother, if she walked in here like that I would have been on my knees calling her Mommy.” The uy mutters quietly.
I turn away from them and tu their discussion with a slight sneer on my face. Boys be such pigs at times. I rex my face, letting it go impassive and I zo while I wait for my match. Forty minutes quickly pass by until I hear my name called from the door I was staring at. I slowly stand up and walk out the door and into a long hallway where I hear the sound of the crowd waiting for me and so I take the first step on my path.
