"Ohhhhh, this is getting me nervous..." I said to Ryan. At this point, I was at the edge of my seat. "Come on, Aden...don't back out now..." I said.
"Miltank! Rollout!" She shouted.
"MILLLAA!" The Miltank curled up then peeled out, rushing off towards the bug

"Try to trip it up! Vacuum Wave!" Aden called, already a little worried. This was really going to be a make or break moment; if even one hit landed from the likes of Rollout, this fight was over.
Scyther responded by spinning about, starting somewhat slow before going faster and faster before finally speeding upward. The resulting wind kicked up as he ascended left a whirlwind, staying in place before spreading outward in an effort to hit Miltank. Luckily, the ascension kept Scyther out of harm's way for a fleeting moment.

Darksol88 "Try to trip it up! Vacuum Wave!" Aden called, already a little worried.

The resulting wind kicked up as he ascended left a whirlwind, staying in place before spreading outward in an effort to hit Miltank. Luckily, the ascension kept Scyther out of harm's way for a fleeting moment. The Rollout met the Vaccum Wave attack head on, which incidentally made the Miltank miss its mark. For now. The Miltank got out of its curl, and skidded to a stop, looking back to see that bug. "Miltank! Return attack!" "It looks like Whitney is pulling out all the stops on this one." I said. That was the attack that shut Flaffy down last time with a passion. The Miltank started to rush for the bug with its mighty blow in tow.

"(Kid, pretty sure this is ending here.)" Scyther spoke up, seeing Miltank coming at him and quickly rushing back.
"No, it won't."
"(Come on, I'm worn out, that demon in cowskin isn't, and you're over there being stubborn!)"
"Don't you think I know that!? Look, it's bad, I know. Chances are I'll be right back here tomorrow, trying yet again to get through this gym. You say it's ending? I'm saying it's just begun. Forget reason, forget odds! Look at them and throw them to the curb! We'll see this through all the same, and show Whitney just who in the hell we think we are- oh my god, I'm starting to talk like Nidorino."
By now, there was a split second's time to do something, leading Scyther to bolt just in time to evade the attack.
"(Yeah, yeah, nice rousing speech, now give me a command here!)" Scyther shouted.
"Oh, right... Slash?"
Apparently, this was good enough, with Scyther using the newfound opening to try and slice Miltank up.

The Miltank misses and came to a skidding halt once more, turning around once again to face the bug, but only to see a scythe come down upon it. The damage, insane from such a sharp blade. Back again was the pitiful condition that it found itself in before Scyther made it out. Whitney was found at a loss, almost. "Rollout!" she shouted. It was now or never for her. The Miltank curled up once again and peeled out for the Scyther.

"We can't stop here! Scyther, Quick Attack!" Aden called. Defense was only going to last so long, and he couldn't afford for Miltank to recover again. Suffice to say, this was going to get a little bloody.
As Miltank peeled out and went for Scyther, he lunged forward and proceeded to meet fast-hitting strike with fast-hitting strike. A good bit of dust picked up between the movements and imminent collision, only making the close fight even closer.

A good bit of dust picked up between the movements and imminent collision, only making the close fight even closer. Impact was made upon the field. The two of them should of felt it in some way. The Miltank quickly came out of its Rollout attack, on its two hooves, breathing heavily. It wasn't looking too good at all. "Miltank?" Whitney spoke up. "Milllll...aaaa..." The Miltank moaned, trying to get its arm reach back...namely where the Scyther got it. Pretty well, by the looks of it. But the short arms did nothing to reach it. As it bent back, it tipped forward, finally giving up on the pain and falling face first to the gym floor. "Holy...hell..." I said, at the bleachers. "The Scyther is a ninja..."

"Scyther!?" Aden spoke up, fearing the worst as everything cleared.
Scyther would end up on the other side, seemingly pulling off what would be one of his most insane stunts yet... until he promptly fell forward, meeting the floor just as soon as Miltank did. Escaping an attack like that unscathed just wasn't going to happen.
"Woah..." As he saw it, this fight was nuts. And apparently one with no clear victor. Whatever had just happened, he couldn't discern.

The two Pokemon were there on the floor, unmoving. The ref looked on, then raised both flags. Both panels on the scoreboard dimmed out, showing the final result of the battle. "This battle is a draw! There is no victor in this contest."
"Oh no..." Whitney said. She didn't lose, but she didn't win either. "Now what.?" she said, crossing her arms. This battle went on so hard, so long, even she couldn't make heads or tails of it anymore.
"Well Whitney, you got two options." I called out to her. "Pokemon League Mandate says that you can either fork over the badge now, or go 'Sudden Death', one Pokemon a piece." I said, putting my hands behind my head. "Either way, Aden can't leave without something clear cut." I said to her.
"Well, since you're supposedly gym material, what do you think?" She asked.
"Now, Whitney, you know I can't state my opinion on that. That'd be a conflict of interest. That's what Clair is trying to use against Aden right now, remember?" I told her.
"Yea, you're right about that. It's decisions like these that makes the job hard, you know?" Whitney said. She thought for a minute, recalling her Miltank in the process. Part of her didn't want him to go on that easily. To go sudden death. Aden was already given one pass already by Falkner and that was a loss under Aden's belt. The other part of her though thought Aden, in only a short amount of time, actually got the leg up on her for a while there. Actually had to make her work for that stalemate, if at the very least. His potential to improve is just mind blowing. Probably something Aden picked up from certain others. For that matter, it becomes even more tempting to spite Clair. It was that thought, she was sold.
She pulled out an envelope and went over towards Aden. "Aden, take it. You earned it. The prize money for victory in this gym and recognition of the Goldenrod Gym by means of the Plain Badge. And just an added treat, a TM, just for you. Teach it to the right one, okay? It's all yours." Aden would find just as what she said it was. The cash, the badge, and the TM, which by the label, it was Return.

Another mention of Clair? At this point, Aden was wondering if it wouldn't be a bad idea to spite her himself, recalling Scyther in the meantime. Such an endeavor would be a ways off, but he was already getting the vibe that she probably wasn't the kind of person he'd want to hang around.
He'd be fine with either judgment. He did still have Nidorino, Flaaffy and Geodude. He found out that part wouldn't be needed, what with being given the envelope and all. "Thanks..." He said, still a little awestruck by everything that had happened. "Judging from everything, though, why do I get this feeling that whenever I do have to fight Clair, I'm pretty much going to be told to show no mercy?"
At this point, he thought it was a plausible occurrence.

Ryan pats Aden on the shoulder. "Not bad, kid. Not bad at all. " he says with a smile. He then looks over at Whitney. "And very impressive on your end as well. " he says to her.

"Please do." Whitney said. "I had about enough of Clair after yesterday." she said. She then looked over towards Ryan and gave a content smile. "Thanks."
"Well, I don't know about you, but Im ready to get back to the Pokemon Center, get Aden's Pokemon patched up then off towards Ecruteak...which you know what that means, Aden. You versus Kristy all over again." I said.

"Among other things..." Aden said, gulping a bit. At this point, he honestly wouldn't be surprised if his sister was waiting in the city for him. Or Sol. Or both. Still, that rematch was bound to happen. And then there was Morty following that.
As for Clair, he couldn't help asking. "Wait, what happened yesterday? Must've been before or after my first visit."

Ryan nods. "You two go on ahead. I'll be there in a bit." he says to Aden and Blizz.
