Serperior was too focussed on the Arcanine to notice the Braviary speeding towards him. Because of this fatal mistake, Serperior was blown back and left with severe injuries due to it being a super effective move. "Serperior! Krookodile!" Panic could be seen on Fern's face as his two Pokemon were blown back and now left with severe injuries. "Tch, that ought to teach you to be that weak! We're going to have to double our training." He pulled out his empty Pokeballs and returned his Pokemon back to their Pokeballs.
He then jabbed an accusing finger at Val, promptly declaring 'war' on her, "Don't let this get into your head, kiddo. You've made a mistake crossing me and I promise you, I'll make you regret it!"
Fern then glared at Decibel and waved a ruby ring at her direction, "I figured you wouldn't want to battle me even if I forced you to. So I grabbed a little incentive,"
Decibel weakly glanced at the ring, her blue eyes blazed with anger and narrowed into slits, "You stole...from Heather?!"
"Darn right I did! The kid was crying all over the place for this useless thing. Spouting something about how it was the last thing that remained of her parents and all, I don't really care." Fern slipped the ring into his pocket, "Participate in the league and battle me, then maybe I'll give this ring back. Oh, wait! I have to take into account that you'll probably struggle. Don't worry, I'll wait for you, as champion that is."
The green haired teen would then walk off, laughing to himself about his 'victory'.
"Fern!" Decibel growled as she tried to stand up to chase after the retreating trainer, only to fall back to her knees. Her Pokemon would hurry to her side, seeing that the opponent had forfeited.
