    "Mele typically appears if a Primarina is involved in the show's storyline, or as a mount for a water spirit or deity." Misty explained. "But that doesn't mean she can't cut loose every so often--they can learn many of the same tricks Gorebyss do."

    Interesting, Sophie thought. This could also help Sophie relaxx, by going to a show such as this. She would keep all of these in mind when she was suffering from one of her many problems.

    "Music's being prepped in the control room." Misty told Brock.

    She then addressed the crowd. "Here's an example of an aquatics routine we do when there is a water deity or spirit in the storyline." Misty explained. "This can be done with a single swimmer, but the effect is even better when you ride a water Pokémon. "So I'm gonna get on in the water and let Mele get into position here..."

    Mele giggled as she giddily dove underwater to her place in the pool, allowing her master in the water. "There's speakers in the pool, so even when we're underwater, we can hear our cues." Misty explained.

    Another surprise performance. This makes it two for today, and Sophie had a feeling this one would be even better than the last. She tapped her food in anticipation, and the crowd waited to see what was going to happen.

    "Music is go..." Brock smiled as he hit PLAY, making a dreamy power ballad drift thorough the room, including underwater.

    The crowd watched in amazing as girl and Primarina weaved, whirled, jumped and frolicked in the water in time to the song. But the high point was the bridge, where Misty appeared standing on Mele's back as Mele surfaced!

    When the song ended, the room roared with applause as human and Pokémon took a bow.

    Sophie applauded the whimsical performance. It may have been short, but both human and Pokémon performed their jobs fantastically, something Sophie had seen before, but with a different Pokémon. The music accompanied the act perfectly.

    "Does anyone have any questions for Misty before we move on?" Brock asked as he emerged from the control room.

    Sophie kept her hand down and all quiet in the room, indicating that no-one had a question.

    Once sure no one else had any questions, Brock led the group towards the Artistic and Athletics wing. "Here is the Artistic and Athletics wing, where musical skills and athletic ability are trained--so don't be surprised if you hear a lot of random notes from various instruments in here."

    He went on "We do have a lot of instruments from accordion to zither in here--so if it makes music, you'll find it here."

    This room had nearly every instrument that Sophie could think of, even ones that she didn't even know existed. She was interested in what kind of performance she would see here.

    Something occurs to Brock. "Speaking of which, Ash is currently in one of the training gyms at the moment, so we'll come back here later." he assured the group as he retrieved a small frame drum and its stick from a drum storage closet."

    Hmm, the training gym also appealed to Sophie. She wondered what kind of training went on in there, and just how tough it was. Her mind raced with so many thoughts about this, and it would only be a matter of time before she would see.

    In one of the training gyms, a black haired boy wearing a beautiful red costume with gold Beautifly wing trim practiced weaving and whirling through a pair of silvery white marbles on a chain as a Pikachu looked on. "I figured you'd be working with the sferas about now, Ash..." Brock smiled as the boy effortlessly wound the silver chain the marble was attached to back in his hand with one flick of the wrist.

    He went on "This is Ash--our main heroic actor that is also a fine musician and acrobat. But his main acrobatic act involves sferas--an implement that combines a yo-yo with a Latin American weapon called a bolas."

    "Anyone here ever played with a yo-yo before?" Ash asked.

    Some hands went up at this. "Some of you? You can do many of the same tricks with the sferas." Ash explained. "Unlike a yo-yo, these are not attached to your hand, so the first skill a sfera performer will learn is to hold on tight, so it doesn't go flying."

    "They typically come in sets of two, allowing the performer to create intricate patterns and designs in the air as they dance, spin, and whirl to a beat." Brock went on. "In Ash's case, that also means going one step farther than the classic baton twirler trick of twirling fire--twirling lightning." That got the group excited.

    Well, this was really something else. Sophie had seen and even played around with sferas before just for fun. She was pretty good at it, but had never seen nor done anything like this. This could prove useful for some future performances.

    "This was why I picked up the frame drum before." Brock explained as he retrieved the frame drum and its stick. "Sfera routines are traditionally done in time to a beat. No melodic instrument, no voice, just the performer and the drummer."

    "One of my biggest pet peeves is the audience making noise and clapping to Brock's beat when I'm trying to perform." Ash agreed. "So this is why Brock will tell the audience to keep quiet when it's time for the sferas act in a showcase. If we're doing a scripted story, it'll have a friendly reminder to keep quiet in the program."

    No wonder Sophie was having so much fun while doing this, it was just her and her drummer working in perfect sync. Thoughts raced in and out of her mind while this was going on. What kind of performance would be put on now?

    "So let me get a beat going here, and let Ash show you some tricks beyond walking the Growlithe and around the world--including twirling lightning!" Brock grinned.

    This got the group excited as Brock started an exotic beat, prompting Ash to open with a basic move--spinning a sfera in a circle. He then intertwined his body through the circle in various ways before adding in the other sfera, creating intricate patterns such as bows, figure 8's, and even Beautifly wings.

    The group watched in awe as Ash performed one awe inspiring trick after another, all expertly timed to the beat Brock was playing.

    The beat chosen was absolutely phenomenal and paired with the act almost perfectly. Sophies thoughts were racing in and out once again, giving her some ideas on what she could do, if not something similar.

    Just then, Tintri, Ash's Pikachu fired a tiny Thundershock onto one sfera, to some "Whoa"s as it became a crackling blue orb. After weaving and whirling through the wave of sparks for a minute, he touched the sparking sfera to the other, making it spark as the lights completely went down, the streaks of lightning around Ash being the only light in the room as they created even more intricate patterns in the darkness.

    Sophie herself was amazed at what had just occurred. She had to give some applause for a marvelous scene like that. The streaks of lightning kept filling the rooms airspace, like some kind of enormous storm had just started inside.
