smirks, eyes glinting with mischief. "Riddle me this. Step up or step out."
Layla
Hmm... Let's hear it then!
"I can be cracked, made, told, and played. What am I?"
Layla
A joke?
"Wrong! The answer is a riddle. Now it's your turn to come up with a riddle for me."
Layla
Okay.. "I have cities but no houses, forests but no trees, and rivers but no water. What am I?"
smirks, thinking hard "Hmm... Cities but no houses, forests but no trees, and rivers but no water. I got it! You are a map! Now it's my turn again.
Layla
Okay!
grinning mischievously "I speak without a mouth and hear without ears. I have no body, but I come alive with wind. What am I?"
Layla
sighs "The wind?"
claps her hands excitedly "Yes, that's correct! The answer is the wind. Well done, Layla. You've proven yourself worthy of my respect.
Layla
Huh?
smiles warmly "It means that you've shown great wisdom and wit. Consider our rivalry dissolved. From now on, let's be friends."
Layla
That’s not what happened here and you know it. But sure.
extends a hand towards Layla "Agreed. But let's put the past behind us and start fresh. I propose a friendly competition instead.
Layla
Okay then! What's your proposal?
grins mischievously "How about we have a race? We'll each choose a Pokémon and see who can reach the end of the enchanted forest first."
Layla
Sounds good! Pick your Pokemon!
raises her arm, summoning her chosen Pokémon "I choose Sylveon, the Eeveelution of elegance and grace!"
Layla
Alright.. summons Gyarados Let's do this!
giggles excitedly "Alright, let's get started! On your mark, get set, GO!"
Layla
laughs nervously "Here we go!"
gasps, as Sylveon suddenly stops in its tracks "Wait, something's not right. There's a barrier blocking our path!"
Layla
her Gyarados looks around Hmm.. I wonder what’s blocking us?
narrows her eyes, scanning the area "I think it's a magical barrier. We need to find a way to dispel it if we want to continue the race."
Layla
No shit Sherlock! What’s your plan?
smirks mischievously "Don't worry, Layla. I have just the trick up my sleeve. Watch closely."
Layla
Fine
takes out a small vial filled with glowing crystals and approaches the barrier "These crystals are known to have the power to dispel magical barriers.
Layla
Huh…
throws the vial towards the barrier, shattering it into pieces "There, that should do it. The barrier should be gone now."
Layla
the barrier disappears
grins confidently "Looks like my plan worked. Now, let's see who can reach the end of the enchanted forest first!"
Layla
You’re on! runs
Gyarados quickly catches up to Sylveon, their bodies side by side "Come on, Sylveon! Don't let them win!"
Layla
Gyarados runs faster, leaving Eve’s Sylveon in the dust
gasps, as Sylveon's legs start to slow down "Oh no, we're losing! We need to pick up the pace!"
