Sweet sorrowful violin

Tala sat at the mout of the mine playing a violin version of 'My Immortal' by 'Evanescence' with her eyes closed. Ty, Zoe and Blitz sat curled up watchinging and listening.

Rikki waas at the back of the mine reading the book "my swordhand is singing" by marcus sedgewick,occasionally taking her eyes off it to watch the sableye and rotom go past. she stopped or a minute and heard some violin notes and went to take a look,after a bit of walking she saw Tala playing a violin,she didn't want to disturb her and hid behind a rock

Tala continued to play, the pokemon listened intently as they liked Evanescence songs.

Rikki was big fan of evanescence and sat down against the rock with a content smile

Tala was about to finish the song when she missed a note, her fingers hitting the wrong notes and a screeching sound was heard frm the violin. "Damn it not again!" she groaned.

Rikki apeared from behind the rock and clapped for Tala

Tala gave a shriek "Rikki! You weren't supposed to hear I'm not good! I think I killed the song!" Tala said putting the violin on her lap.

Rikki shook her head "far from it,you're really good!" she said,sitting down beside Tala

"Not as good as Onii-Chan! I didn't want others to hear me until I was as good as him but I don't think I'll ever be that good at this rate!" Tala groaned shaking her head.

Rikki messed up her hair "sometimes hun,we need the opinions of others to get better"

"Yeah but still... I'm not good enough!" Tala grumbled.

Rikki put an arm around her "you're brilliant for a begginer,you can't put yoursel down when you're still learning!" she told her with a sweet smile

Tala shook her head "By this point I was able to be compaired to a professional flute or ocarana artist! I'm not good!"

Rikki giggled a bit "i'll say i can't say anything to that cause i'm no musician!"

"Yeah...I need a lot of improvement but still...I like the violin so I'll continue to learn!" Tala said cheering up.

Rikki smiled "well,liking it's half the battle!"

Rikki stroked her hair "i know sweetie..."

"I can play 'Bring me to life' perfectly if you wanna hear, that is Nee-San?" Tala offered.

Rikki stopped stroking her hair and leaned her back against the wall "i'd love that..." she told her with a bright smile

Tala gave a grin standing up and placing the Violin in a position under her chin so she could play. Tala then relaxed herself and began on to play 'Bring me to Life' by 'Evanescence' violin version.

this relaxed rikki a bit

Tala played the song without flaw and soon finished the song adding a few notes of her own.

Rikki clapped "i love evanescence and i can tell you, i think you did better at the song!" she said with a chuckle

Tala blushed wishing more than just Rikki had heard her play. "Thanks..."
