After a long yet scenic flight, Brian and Metagross safely managed to return to his Gym where he hopped off his glistening Pokemon and returned it to it's Poke ball, he noticed Officer Jenny and approached her with a smile. "Good day Officer Jenny." Brian greeted with a smile to which the Officer responded happily. "Ah Brian, anything I can help with?" She asked while Brian nodded in response. "Yes, I was wondering if you could make sure to keep a good eye on this City; I was a Lumiose earlier to meet with the other Gym leaders and was rudely interrupted by this 'Team Card' organization. Something tells me what we Gym Leaders encountered might only be the beginning." Brian explained as if he read it off of a script. Officer Jenny blinked in surprise before she responded with a nod.
"Understood, thank you for letting me know, do you plan to check your Gym?" Officer Jenny asked. "I do, I just hope security's alright." Brian replied before he tipped his hat to the Officer and left for his Gym. The entry had two men with folded arms and stoic looks on their faces stand at either side of the door; one man was tall with what looked like a mop top and a multicolored headband, the other man was wide and chubby, yet the look he gave seemed intimidating to most people. "Hello gentlemen, I hope nothing bad happened while I was away?" Brian asked the guards. "Nothing much, sir." The tall guard replied. "We've had a trainer or two come over in hopes of battling, but I told them you were away and to come back later." The chubby one added while the tall man nodded in agreement.
"Good." Brian said. "Although I don't have much desire to battle today, I'm going off to do some training. let any upcoming trainers know that I apologize for the inconvenient postponing." He added. "Yes sir." The guards replied while Brian walked home to grab his things, his bag and some food as if he was ready to go camping. When he got back outside, he got out another Poke ball and threw it upward to let a Rapidash emerge from it, this Rapidsh appeared to be one of a Galarian variant as it's fires were replaced with elegant, pink hair. Brian smiled and hopped on to the Rapisadh's back. "To Route 18, my friend!" Brian said confidently, Rapisah replied with a little jump and a whinny before he began to gallop out of Anistar City and in to the path of Route 18.
