She turned herself around to see who called out to her. Thora woke up from her trance as she looked around wondering where the voice was coming from. She sat herself thinking about what Gordie asked her on her tweleth birthday if one day they could ever become more than just best friends.what if, Thora was ready to go to that next level? But how? After about thirty minutes or so went by, Thora was finally able to calm herself down as she was mentally rested for the time being. It was driving her insane! Thora wanted to scream but she held it in knowing she didn't want to cause a scene. Thora tried to clear her mind for the second but once again, the thought of her and Gordie sharing their first kiss was replaying in her mind in a constant loop. In her heart, she was overjoyed he still remembered her but was held aback over the fact that now he was affectionate towards her and was blushing whenever he was in her presence, as was she. She knew it had been five years since they last seen one another.she still remembered the day she became a certified Gym Leader and decided to move to Hammerlocke much to her heartbreak and Gordie's. It was hard to describe that sensation but from what she could only describe, it felt like something she wanted to experience again.but how could she even confess her feelings to Gordie if she was too much of a compulsive blush baby? Thora scrunched her hands over her eyes groaning to herself in frustration over the pent up feelings she was experiencing. Though both of them were unexpected, deep down, she loved the feeling. Then, she began to remember their second kiss when Gordie kissed her before his battle with Melony. She started to think of the day when him and her shared their first kiss. Thora tossed and turned a bit as couldn't get the thoughts of Gordie out of her mind. Thora had a strong feeling that she would face Gordie in the finals which the thought of it made her heart skip a beat. If she were to face him, she probably wouldn't be able to contain herself with her bottled up feelings for Gordie would start to arise during the battle. While she was resting, she began to think of Gordie, a small blush appeared on her face.

Thora shut her eyes as she began to clear her mind trying to rest. Thora wanted to watch the next battle proceed between Bede and Gordie but she was too mentally exhausted to even wanting to get up due to how much energy she put into battling Raihan, the least she wanted to do was to rest up a bit before the finals. Quite honestly, she didn't think she had it in her to defeat him knowing that both were on the same level to rival the champion Leon. She didn't know where she got her strength from to defeat Raihan. As she reached the break room to rest her Pokemon, she collapsed onto the couch laying back down sighing to herself. Thora was happily relieved that the first part of the semi-finals was finally over.
