After registering for Team Kratos, Sombra was asked to wait out in the lobby until evaluations started. After a whopping half hour, she was led by a young uniformed man into a huge room where trainers were battling.
"If you beat the right amount of kids," the man informed her "Then you're officially a Grunt!"
Sombra didn't like the sound of 'Grunt', but she'd work her way up the ladder soon, right?
Eventually, she was forced to challenge a kid with a Shieldon. Sombra's pulse quickened; She knew that poor Thor would have trouble with this type, and the odds were against them.
"Thor, start off with a Leer!" she ordered firmly.
"Shelly, use Protect!"
SHELLY?! ;D Oh my gosh, that was good.
However, Protect proved to be formidable against attack moves. A few minutes later, however, Thor had used plenty of speedy Quick Attacks to deal a decent amount of damage to the Shieldon for it to matter. It used Protect quite often, but with plenty of patience, you could overcome such an annoying thing.
Finally, a tired Thor came out on top, although he was close to fainting. A Kratos grunt came by and potioned him, and the little electrical type was up and at 'em again.
~~~~~~~~
A few minutes later, they had to battle a second opponent. This time, it was a grumpy girl with a Staryu, and with a few Quick Attacks, that stupid star was down in no time, although its Harden attack complicated things a little.
"Nice job Thor!" Sombra congratulated him, to which the young electrical type raised his arms in victory.
A Kratos Grunt came by and handed her an official uniform, and it became clear at once that she had passed the evaluations.
"Yes!..."
