After the Mightyena dropped Baeden back inside the Center's lobby and then return to the battlefield to search for more injured, Xia immediately brings out Qeno to use a Healing Pulse on him to be safe. After a few seconds of being bathed in the green aura, Baeden gets back up, in prime condition. He stretches a little before Xia gives him a big hug, overjoyed that he's okay. He was in surprisingly better condition than she thought. That's Machops for ya. Qeno himself is also unharmed, and Xia only has a few bruises from when she fell. Her clothes are also completey covered in dirt. Cotton and dirt do not mix.

A few minutes pass as they stay inside to make sure Baeden was OK, sitting at one of the lobby tables. Soon the rest of the trainers who were out battling the Mags return inside, with defeated looks on their face. Wondering what's wrong, she asks the Pokemon Ranger Kyosuke.

"What happened? The fucking generator got it's top torn off! That's what happened." He sneered at her.

Xia shrinks a bit from his outburst before heading back to her seat where Qeno is just trying to nap on her tote bag while Baeden does stretches. One of the returning trainers hands her a gray pokeball, Baeden's pokeball. They had seen Xia drop it and managed to find it once the dust had settled. Overjoyed, Xia thanks the trainer as she places it back onto her belt. Soon after Illia comes running from behind everyone else, with the knife still in her mouth. She must have waited for everyone to return inside first, guess she didn't want to accidentally cut anyone. Xia inspects the knife. It's still in pretty good condition. A little dirty, but nothing a rub down from a rag can't fix. After putting it back in it's case, she pulls Illia up from the ground and gives her a big Ursa hug, glad that she's safe and sound.

In a calming tone, she tells Illia "Thank goodness you're safe Illy. You did a great job out there. I'm really proud of you." To which she chirps happily to. Xia looks back around at all the people gathered in the lobby. Practially everyone seems to be exhausted and depressed after the catastrophe that happened outside. At one of the tables, she spots the Mightyena that saved Baeden earlier, and that same big grin she had a few minutes back during the battle returns.

As she runs over to it, Illia still in her arms, she cries "Okami! Oh Okami I can't believe it's you!" She puts Illia down next to the Mightyena before giving it a big hug. The Mightyena looks surprised and confused at this stranger suddenly hugging it. "Okami! I'm so glad you're safe. W-where's Zanny? Is he okay? Is he safe?" The Mightyena continues to give her a bewildered look. Even Ilia is confused. She sniffs the Mightyena a few times, and she can tell it definitely isn't Okami from its scent. The trainer next to them pipes up "Uhm. Actually, her name is Chenna. She's my Mightyena."

Xia's happy demeanor practically fades in an instant. "Oh.... uhm.... sorry then." She sullenly gets back up to rejoin Baeden and Qeno at the table as they look over at her, concerned.
