Several shrieks of agony and fits of laughter later, it was time for Seva and Frost to go on. Edward and his rude Lilligant, Cilia, came back from beyond the curtains with satisfied grins. The other Coordinators clapped for them like all others, but some had caught on to their behavior and were less enthusiastic about their performance. In particular, Fantina and Miz stood among a group of other women near the corner of the room near the DJ and the large screen, giving disapproving looks to the competitive pair as they made their way to their seats near the left wall. Cilia seemed to notice the lesser amount of praise, and had a depressed frown as she looked around the room. The leaves and extravagant flower on her tiny head drooping as she kept her eyes focused on Devon's group for a bit longer then others, before looking away. The announcer's voice rang out once again, and was almost hard to hear over the crowds cheering. "ANOTHER STELLAR PERFORMANCE FROM EDWARD AND CILIA! WOULD YOU EXPECT NOTHING LESS FROM THE RICH? BUT, I EXPECT EVEN BIGGER AND BETTER THINGS FROM OUR NEXT SNOWY PAIR! COME ON DOWN, SEVA AND FROST! YOU GOT FANS TO DAZZLE!" Seva shot up from her chair, rapidly patting down her white dress decorated with sparkling snowflake sequins, and looked to the Sneasel sitting near feet. “Frost! We’re on! Are you ready!?” Frost jumped high in the air, doing a front flip as he landed and raised his claws in the air triumphantly. <Yeah! Let’s do this! I’m ready!> Devon, Sam, and Sunny gave their best wishes to the duo. Devon winked and gave them thumbs up. “You can do it guys! Give em a show they’ll never forget!” Sam flashed them a grin, and Sunny gave them a wide open smile. “You got this in the bag you two. Get out there, and prove that you’re not playing around!” Sunny ruffled her flower, letting loose more of its sweet scented mist as she spoke. <I believe in you guys! Some em your best!> Seva waved at everyone, her and Frost giving them big smiles. “Thanks guys! We’ll do our best!” Running over to the curtains, one of the stage hands grin and ripped them open, the girl and her Dar-Ice type practically jumped though the opening. The stage light harsh in their eyes, Seva and Frost strolled down to center stage, where the blazing white suited announcer stood, anxiously awaiting their final act. Jasmine, Whitney, and Richard stood behind their tall metal podiums, pens at the ready to record their votes, and eyes locked on the girl and her Pokémon on stage. The two men at the bottom of the stage were aiming their large studio cameras at the stage, the lens focusing to record Frost’s act for audiences at home watching on their TV’s live feed. Seva took a deep breath, and walked back a bit, leaving Frost in the center of the stage, twirling his hat around on his single left claw, as he looked back at his Trainer with a nod and a grin. <Ready anytime Seva!> Closing her eyes, she left out her breath quickly. Seva’s eyes then shot open in an instant as she threw out her right arm, and called her command. “Frost! Ice Shard!” Frost complied, and brought his paws together, a small blue block of pure cold formed in between them. The block grew bigger and bigger, until it was about the size of Frost himself. With a grin, his claws came together in a mighty clap, shattering the icy cube and forming dozens of large chunks of ice. With a skillful flip, Frost tossed the ice upwards, and just as they were flying towards the ceiling, Seva called out the next move. “Good going Frost! Now! Blizzard!” Opening his mouth wide, Frost tilted his head upwards, and let loose the powerful Ice move. Piercingly cold wind, snow, and ice blasted from his maw, as he broke off in a run, and began to circle the center of the stage while still pounding the Ice Shard’s above him with the Blizzard. Frost’s run worked just as they had plan, the Ice and snow in the air began whipping around, getting caught in a sort of freezing cyclone that battered the ceiling. Seva then punched her fist upwards. “Come on Frost! Agility! Aerial Ace! X-Scissor! And finally, Power-Up Punch!” Frost cut the Blizzard, still huffing and puffing cold air from between his teeth as he crouched down, and seemed to disappear from view in a blink of an eye. Suddenly, with many grunts and yells, Frost appeared inside of the raging Blizzard, rapidly slicing and dicing the ice with glowing blue claws, spinning and rolling as the wind tossed him around. Finally, his claws glowed a bright yellow, as he crossed his arm against his chest, and slashed away one of the largest chunks of frozen water in the Blizzard with a shrill yell. The destroyed ice glittered and dancing around lazily in air as it fell to the ground like a light snowfall. Then, as he was falling out of the storm, his left claw began to glow a blazing orange, aura trailing him to ground as he finally slammed down the Power-Up Punch. The move sent thin spikes of energy upwards, finally ending the blizzard and shattering the rest of the ice. More of the shiny soft snow fell to the floor, coating the entire stage in a glittering white. The announcer, audience, and Judges were left speechless at the display jaws hung all around……Until the announcer’s excited grin returned and he brought the mike to his face. “THAT WAS INCREDIABLE! GIVE THIS SNEASEL ALL OF YOUR PRAISE BABY, THAT WAS THE MOST AMAZING DISPLAY OF ICET-TYPE POWER MY EYES HAVE EVER HAD THE PLEASURE OF VIEWING! DO YOU ALL AGREE!? JUDGES!? AUDIENCE!?” The audience exploded in ear shattering cheers, arms, glow sticks, and bodies danced around in the stands, going absolutely nuts for the act. Whitney’s eyes sparkled from the Judges podiums, clasping her hands together, and fawning over the display. “OMG THAT WAS AMAZING! HE JUST LIKE, ZIPPED AROUND, SLCING AND DICING EVERYTHING! THERE’S SNOW EVERYWHERE! EVERYTHING IS SOOOO SHINY AND BEAUTIFUL! AND HIS LITTLE JACKET IS STILL ADORBS!” Jasmine reached her hand down, taking a handful of the soft snow that fell to her podium and blowing it towards the stage. The small shards glittered and spun around her, the small brown haired woman looked to the two on stage with large brown eyes full of joy. “This is beautiful Frost. It reminds me of the quiet winters in Sinnoh…….” With a smile she nodded. “You have done very well, both of you. I am very impressed.” Richard adjusted his glasses, and grinned at the stage. “Why, for a Pokémon that is deathly weak to Fighting-type moves, you can perform them with absolute skill my friend. I am satisfied. The snow, is indeed a nice touch.” Crowd went wild at the acceptance, as the announcer waved the two off. “YOU’RE GOING PLACES KIDDOS! KEEP UP THE SNOW FALL, AND YOU’LL BE CONTEST SUPERSTARS IN NO TIME! HECK, WHO AM I TO SAY YOU AREN’T? I’M PRETTY ENETERTAINED! GOOD LUCK IN THE FINAL JUDGING GUYS, THIS WAS INCREDIABLE!” Frost picked himself up from the floor, dusting himself off and bowing as he strolled over to Seva with a wide grin, the two then waved at the crowds as they went back stage to sounds of their fans. Seva and Frost came from the purple cloth, and the other Coordinators showered them with praise as they made their way back to Devon, Sam, Nasir, and Sunny. Seva sat down and spoke up. “So how’d he do?” Devon pumped both fists in the air, smiling wide. “How’d he do!? You both did awesome guys! Seva, you really owned up to the command out there! Frost, You were amazing, slicing up the ice and blasting that snow everywhere! Good job!” Sam grinned ear to ear, and nodded. “Damn right guys, you really sold it out there! You impressed me man!” Sunny reached over with her vines, and picked Frost up from his place on the floor, and danced him around in the air in front of her while the Meganium dance as well. <That was perfect you two! I loved it!> Frost was still dizzy from the rapid fire of moves, and the dancing with Sunny didn’t help. His eyes bugged out of his head, but he still smiled to the Grass-type. <T-Thanks Sunny! Thanks everyone! I-It was hard to…..Chain all of those moves at once……>
