Utility of Flower Power

The mining city of Ward isn't a city known for it's agriculture design. The landscapes greenery was stripped, and replaced by the remains of mining operations. Naoki couldn't help but look at the city with distaste, it's image brought an uncomfortable comparison between the city, to the hell he remembered as his childhood home.

With his mouth full of distaste, the boy spit on the ground, rubbing the saliva out with his heel. Opening his PDA, he quickly searched for a resource outlet. A quick restock of his supplies, and he was back on the road.

Itsuki has grown quite, quite bored of Ward. He didn't really know why he was there seeing as Sakura found the city quite distasteful (as did he, by default) and that was enough for him to leave. He was casually reminded by the few conscious thoughts that remained in his head that there was an Arena here his Hitsuji should have no problem absolutely destroying.

In the meanwhile, Itsuki saw someone fiddling with a PDA and sauntered over to them, giggling slightly as he looked at the person before him.

"Hi! I'm Itsuki, what's your name? Are you a trainer? Do you want to battle?" Itsuki asked in a flurry of words, smiling maniacally to himself as he mused over the thoughts in his head.

Naoki's attention span was broken by a giggle over his shoulder. Turning around, he discovered the source was not a girl (as he expected), but a boy. With a smile that was undeniably comfortable, he waved.

"Hello! Nice to meet you, Itsuki. I am Naoki, Kagikko Naoki." At the end of his introduction, he bent into a small bow. "As for a Natrelmon battle, sure. I have little Natrelmon to use, and both are low leveled. Could you match either a Sakura, or a Lobo?"

As soon as Itsuki heard that the other trainer had a Sakura he basically exploded with joy - becoming even more hyper than usual and if he could have started sparkling at that second, he would have.

"YOU HAVE A SAKURA TOO?!" He almost yelled, now smiling wildly as he withdrew a book from his backpack and opened it to a page with a beautifully illustrated Sakura - and then whispered something inaudible over the page so his Sakura appeared on his shoulder and bounced around happily.

"Sakura is so pretty... They all are! They're my favourite natrelmon!" Itsuki bounded and smiled, literally jumping with joy (making Sakura also jump until she fell to the floor and jumped at Itsuki's feet instead).
