Aunt Lacey's brown eyes, Aunt CiCi's hazel
eyes and Aunt Meg's amber eyes all water up.
“I can't believe all of you guys are
leaving together now!” Cried Lacey.
“It seems like just yesterday I was
changing your diaper, Bobby.” Added Meg.
“Meg.” Said
Derek. “That was yesterday!”
“Shut up
Derek!” Said Bobby. He looks at himself in the mirror. “You're just jealous
about how beautiful I am! I am the most beautiful creature that has lived and
is going to live!”
“We know
Bobby!” Said Zack, annoyed. He turns to Lacey. “Mom, we'll be fine. Derek has been
traveling for three years and I have been for two years and Bobby did for a
year. We're just training for the Elite Four while going with Junior to get her
gym badges.”
Uncles Chuck, Jack, and Dan come in.
“Yeah and in fact, Junior is getting
her first Pokémon now!” Said Dan.
“You should leave now and go over to
Professor Oak to wait for your baby cousin.” Said Jack.
“But I don't want them to-”
“Lacey, they are old enough to go on
without you.” Said Chuck.
“And Bobby is potty trained now.” Add
Jack.
“All of them are.” Said Dan.
“I
wonder what kind of Pokémon Junior is going to choose.” Said Derek.
Chuck, Jack and Dan turn to them. “Her
father’s!”
~*~
I sit in the chair in Professor
Oak's lab for about ten minutes and look at the reflection on the window. I was
in such a hurry that I forgot to check earlier to see how I look.
My long thick wavy medium golden blonde hair with blunt bangs and black
baseball cap is the same as usual except with a half up ponytail. My bluish
green eyes, full pink lips, medium size nose, pale skin, and even my clothes -long
baggy t-shirt, flare blue jeans, cowboy boots- all remind me of my father -except
for my five feet and four inches fame.
“JUNIOR!”
I get up to see Professor Oak coming
towards me and shake his hand.
“Junior, you look just as excited to
get your first Pokémon as your father was when he was your age.” Said Oak.
I nod my head. “Thanks.”
“Shall we go outside?”
~*~
“Now Junior,” Began Oak. “I have a
variety of Pokémon for you to choose from, but you said you wanted one just
like your father's.”
I nod my head. “Yes.”
"Well his Charizard did breed
with Charlotte.” said Oak. “And they have one male. You want to meet him?”
I nod my head. “Of course!”
~*~
Professor Oak and I walk until we see my father's Charizard. He looks over at
me and smiles, showing his wrinkles. I grin too.
“He remembers me.” I said. “I
thought he forgot about me!”
“Well you are the daughter of his pasted
trainer,” Said Oak, “and you do look and act just like your father.”
I laugh. “That is how I got the
nickname, Junior.”
Oak chuckles and we go to Charizard
and Charlotte. She smiles at me too, remembering me also. Before Oak and I even
say anything, Charizard flies over with a baby Charmander in his hands,
sleeping.
“Aw, he's adorable!” I said.
Charizard hands him over to me.
“What?” I said.
“I think he wants you to have his
son as your own Pokémon like your father did with him.” Said Oak.
“Really?” I ask.
Charizard and Charlotte nod their
heads.
I take Charmander into my hands. He
opens his eyes and looks at me tiredly with curiosity. Charizard looks over to
me and speaks to him. Charlotte comes over to and talks with him too.
Charmander finally nods his head with a smile and looks at me again with a
grin.
“Well Junior.” Said Oak. “Congratulations,
you have your first Pokémon.”
~*~
“COME ON
JUNIOR, HURRY UP!” I hear Bobby. “YOU'RE WASTING MY BEAUTY IN THIS SMALL TOWN!”
“YOU'RE
PUTTING WASTE INTO OUR EARS!”
“STOP
BEING SO JEALOUS DEREK!”
“WOULD
YOU TWO JUST SHUT UP!?”
I run up to my three cousins, Derek,
Bobby, and Zack. “Hey guys!” I put down Charmander who grins at them happily. “This
is Charmander.”
Derek
smirks. “Nice! Good job picking Junior! He looks to be a great one!”
“How did
you get him?” Asked Zack.
“My father's Charizard and Charlotte
had a son and they gave him to me.” I said.
“Oh jeez.”
Said Bobby. “Don't think now that just because of that, you're going to be a
better Pokémon trainer then me. Right, Blastoise?”
“Blast!” Said
Blastoise, by his side.
“Saur!” Said
Venusaur, coming out of the grass and going over to meet Charmander.
Suddenly, Gengar
appears in front of us. “Gengar!”
“Hey
Gengar, introduce yourself to Charmander!” Said Derek.
Gengar obeys and talks to Charmander.
He seems to enjoy him, along with Venusaur and Blastoise.
“Guys, we
have to start going now.” Said Zack. He looks at me. “You ready to start your Pokémon
journey?”
I nod my head with my fist up. “You're
on!”
“Charmander!” Agreed Charmander.
~*~
Just like the four trainers in
Pallet, there is another trainer in a city called Pewter City that is getting
ready to leave on her first journey.
“Come Ditto! Let’s go explore the lands
together!” An energetic girl said her blue
glob turning into her. “Ditto! How many times
have I told you to not turn into me?”
“Ditto~” Ditto
giggled turning back into the little glob.
“That’s much better.” The girl said releasing her breath. “I,
Bella Madison with her trusty Partner Pokémon Ditto, will travel all across the
world to find out our calling!”
“Ditto!”
Ditto chimed in, the girl Bella holding it in her arms as she pointed in a
random direction into the sky. Suddenly there was a large growl that came from
the two’s stomachs.
“Oh…Ha, ha! We better get something to
eat before we leave.” Bella said, rubbing the
back of her head.
“Ditto…” Ditto
said agreeing.
“Oh wait! I’m still wearing my pajamas!” Bella
said running into her closet. “Better get changed!”
When Bella came out, she was wearing a red short sleeved shirt with a
white Pokéball imprint in the middle of her chest and both sides of the sleeve.
The edges of the shirt had gold with it sparkling in any type of light it
connected with and a short white skirt with red edges that sparkled a golden
color, also when collided with light, which went above her knees. Long golden
colored boots, with a tiny heel, were on her feet, this time white edges that
would not sparkle. “Okay Ditto, let’s go have
breakfast.”
~*~
“Come along Litwick, todays the day!” An
energetic black girl said, marching along the path and towards the airport. Her
litwick sat atop her head, equally excited. They boarded the airport, the girl
looking outside the window.
“Xerxes is here somewhere, wherever
he is, we'll kick a$$!” She said.
~*~
“Do we really have to go through that stupid forest
again?” Said Bobby.
“It's
the only way to get to Viridian City.” Remind Zack.
“Thanks
again Junior.” Said Bobby.
“Hey Bobby, you don't have to travel
with me.” I said. “You, Zack, and Derek already have your gym badges.”
“No.”
Said Zack. “We need to train for the Elite Four and going with Junior will help
our training even more.”
“Besides,”
Said Derek, “I want to see my baby cousin become a trainer."
“Yeah,
yeah.” Said Bobby. “I'll still beat you.”
I roll my eyes. “Whatever.”
We enter the path to the Viridian
Forest.
~*~
The girl, Seraphim Walker
arrived to the Hoenn region of the Pokémon world. Her litwick sat atop her
head, bags under her eyes to show she refused to let herself sleep. Her litwick
looked sadly down at its trainer and replied “Li-litwick.”
“I'm okay.” Seraphim replied. “Stupid
Xerxes and cursing my brain with these nightmares! I am the all-powerful Dido!”
Her litwick only shook its head slowly
and slapped its trainer on the forehead. Said trainer who went by the name Dido
because of her constant change of appearance and personality raced down the
road, soon coming to Viridian Forest. The fire on top of her litwicks head
blazed, getting its flash attack ready.
“Thanks.” Dido replied and headed
inside. “You can't hide from us Xerxes.”
~*~
“WAY TO GO CHARMANDER!”
“Charmander.” Cheered Charmander.
Bobby
laughs, along with Blastoise. “You two seriously think that facing Caterpie
after Caterpie is going to make you stronger?”
“Battling is going to make us
stronger no matter who we face!” I
said.
“Char!” Agreed Charmander.
“Besides,
you need to start somewhere.” Agreed
Derek.
“And the
Caterpie’s are around the same level as Charmander currently.” Informed Zack. “So,
facing Caterpie after Caterpie is making them stronger!”
“Whatever.” Said Bobby.
“Hey Junior!”
We turn around to see Gary Oak, the
new rising star Pokémon trainer that is said to be the next Pokémon master with
his reddish brown spiky hair sticking up, auburn pupils, wearing his jet black
shirt, bluish purple wrist bands, white bag on his side, blue jeans and black
shoes. But to me, he's just my evil rival.
“Gary.” I said. “What are you doing
here?”
Gary snaps his fingers and Growlith
runs up from behind him. “Training my Pokémon. We just defeated Brock and are
going to train until it gets dark and travel next to face the gym leader,
Misty.” He looks straight at me. “Junior, did you even face Brock yet?”
“No, but Charmander and I are on our
way!” I said, proudly.
“Char.” Agreed Charmander.
Gary laughs. “Keep telling yourself
that Junior. You're nothing in our level.”
“Excuse me?” I said. “I bet I can
take you on right now!”
“Junior,”
Said Zack, “you just got Charmander this afternoon!”
“Saur.” Agreed
Venusaur.
“Yeah
stupid.” Said Bobby. “All you did were doing was facing Caterpie’s -at least
you have natural talent like Uncle Nate, Grandpa Michael, and Great-Grandpa,
Edward- you're going to lose!”
“No let
her.” said Derek. “I believe in her.”
“Gengar.” Agreed Gengar.
Derek turns to Gary. "And she can't let
you get away with what you said!"
Gary smirks. “Very well. Let's battle!”
~*~
Dido and her litwick escaped the
forest, breathing heavily as they escaped the mob of Pokémon that suddenly came
at them. Dido leaned against a tree and mumbled “This place is crazy!”
“Litwick.” Her Litwick agreed and
seemed to be getting its heart rate back in rhythm. The two looked around,
hoping to spot some form of life till they spotted a town.
“Let's go there and ask for
directions.” Dido said. “We can ask where the gym is.”
Litwick agreed and Dido continued down
the path. She then spotted the famous Pokémon researcher Professor Oak with his
grandson.
“Holy cheese and crackers, look!” Dido said
excitedly. “I-It's Professor Oak, oh mom would do front flips!”
She raced over only to dodge a fire
attack.
“Charmander, use Flamethrower!” A
voice said, catching Dido's attention. The Charmander took a deep breath and
blew fire, Dido ducking.
“Ah!” Dido cried.
“Growlith, use Fire fang.” Gary said
and a Growlith zoomed over her head and bit down on the Charmander.
“Char!” The Charmander wailed.
“Get out of the way!” A rude boy
bellowed at Dido who ran out of the battle field. She bumped into the professor
and said “U-Uh professor Oak?”
“That would be me.” The professor
responded.
“I need some help.” Dido said the
professor then spotting the litwick on top of her head. “I-I'm from the Unova
region.”
“I can see that, but please enjoy
the battle.” The professor said, the two making themselves comfortable.
~*~
So after breakfast, Bella and Ditto headed
towards the Viridian forest, in search of a Pokémon Bell had been dying to get.
“I hope we can find it.” Bella
whispered, entering the dark forest.
“Ditto...”
They
walk for a while till they heard the sounds of Pokémon cries.
“Sounds like a battle...” Bella
said. “It might be trainers battling it out again.
Just ignore it for now and focus on that one Pokémon we're after.” She
continued walking and came to a large open area.
“Ditto?” Ditto
said looking around.
“Do you hear something?” Bella
asked. Suddenly a bolt of electricity came towards them, hitting near their
feet.
“Ditto!” Ditto
said changing into a yellow mouse Pokémon.
“Yes! It’s here!” Bella
said getting ready to fight. “Come on out Pikachu!
Today is the day I catch you!”
“Pika...” The yellow
mouse Pokémon called, Pikachu said coming out of the shadows.
“Ditto use Thunderbolt!”
Bella commanded.
“Ditto!” Ditto
said zapping the Pikachu, but not affecting it at all.
“Urk. Thunderbolt won't work...so this
time we'll use...Quick Attack!” Bella said, Ditto running at full
speed, colliding into the Pikachu. “Now use Iron
Tail!”
“Pi?!” Pikachu said
getting hit and knocked out.
“Now's my chance...Luxury Ball go!” Bella said
throwing a black Pokéball with gold edges towards the mouse. Pikachu went into
the ball, wiggling back and forth, Bella hoping it would stay in the ball.
After the tenth wiggle, it dinged, Bella running over to the ball cheering, “I just caught a Pikachu!”
“Ditto!” Ditto
cheered along, changing back into the little blue glob.
“Let’s head back to the area where those
Trainers were battling it out.” Bella said, Ditto climbing back onto
her shoulder.
~*~
“Use Flamethrower Charmander!” Junior said her
fire lizard Pokémon, Charmander releasing a giant flame towards Gary's
Growlithe.
“Dodge
and use Bite!” Gary commanded, his dog Pokémon Growlithe jumping out of the way
ant biting down onto Charmander’s skull.
“Charmander!” Junior cried out. “Shake it off!”
“Oh, I think this is that battle we heard.”
Bella said popping out of the bushes. “Wait, isn't
that Professor Oak?!” When she saw Professor Oak, she tripped over a
weed causing her to roll down the hill and into the battle field. “Ow...That hurt....”
“What is she doing?!” Dido screamed, her
litwick nearly rolling off her head. The trainer tried dodging the attacks, her
Ditto freaking out as well. Dido then took action as she raced in the battle
and said, “Litwick, use hypnosis!”
Her Litwick’s eyes swirled into a
hypnotic circle, causing the Charmander and the Growlithe to instantly fall
asleep.
“What was that for?!” Junior cried.
“Are you blind?!” Dido said,
pointing at the now sleeping trainer and her Pokémon. “Oops...Guess the
hypnosis attack affected her as well...”
“Litwick...” Litwick said, scratching
the back of its head.
“Thanks for ruining the battle.”
Gary said rather coldly. “If she was a real trainer, she would've moved.”
“If you were a trainer with this
thing called a heart then you would've stopped!” Dido said and turned to
Junior as well. “You too!”
“Who do you think you are?!” Junior
bellowed back.
Putting a hand on her chest and
puffing it out. Dido replied, “I am Seraphim Dido, Pokémon breeder and artist!
I've already gotten a handful of the battle trainer type thing and wanted to
move on.”
“So you’re a trainer?” Junior asked,
suddenly interested. “How many Pokémon, besides that one?”
“I've never seen that one before
actually.” Gary said, examining Dido's Litwick. “May I?”
“I suppose..." Dido said,
prying her litwick from her head and handing it to Gary. While Gary examined
her Litwick, Dido turned back to Junior and replied, “My old parties back in
Unova so I only have Litwick.”
“How many leagues have you been
in?" Junior asked.
“Only three." Dido replied.
"Almost became champion in Unova but lost."
The girl who was asleep suddenly
moaned in her sleep and cuddled into her sleeping Ditto. Dido only laughed and
said, “We should probably take care of her first huh?”
“Y-Yeah.” Junior agreed. “Help me
carry her.”
The two trainers lifted the sleep on
and followed the Oaks back to their lab.
“Okay,” Begin Gary. “Now that this girl is fine, let's get back to our Pokémon
battle, now Junior-”
The girl with the Ditto sits up
immediately. “Junior- Wait, are you guys, Junior Connor, Derek Connor, Bobby Connor,
and Zack Connor -the famous family of Pokémon trainers and-”
“One of
the greatest Pokémon trainers that ever lived.” Said Bobby. “I never get sick
of hearing that! You already know my name and you probably figured out by now
that I am the best looking one out of my cousins with mad athlete skills and
ways with the ladies-”
“And the selfish one.” I finish.
Bobby turns
to me. "I am NOT selfish!"
“You also
probably figure out too that Bobby is blind by his own beauty.” Said Derek.
Bobby rolls
his deep blue eyes. “He's just jealous. Derek is the oldest one-”
“Obviously
since I am the tallest.” Added Derek.
“Let the
beautiful one finish.” Said Bobby.
We chuckle.
“Derek is
also the irresponsible and immature one of us with his sarcastic jokes and pranks.”
Said Bobby. He turns to Zack. “This is the ugly one -with the disgusting red
hair-”
“And you
call Derek immature?” Said Zack.
“And the
nerdy one that tries to act like a parent and the party pooper.” Said Bobby.
Zack sighs.
“Some things never change.”
Bobby turns
to me. “And this is the one and only girl that has ever been born in the Connor
in the longest time, Junior. We already know she looks just like her father -and
acts just like him too which is why I nicknamed her Junior.”
“No.” I said. “Uncle Chuck came up
with it the day I was born-”
“Very
funny Junior.” Said Bobby. He turns to the others. “She doesn't remember
because you know, she was just born.”
“And you
don't either since you were just ONE!” Said Zack.
“Shut up
Zack!” Said Bobby.
“Then
stop it Bobby!” Argued Zack.
“Enough!”
Said Derek, getting in the middle. “Just calm down!”
“Imagine having to leave next door
to this family all these years!” Said Gary.
“I can.” I said. “And it would be
awesome!” I turn to the girl. “Sorry about Bobby and Gary -and everything!” I
take my hand out. “What's your name?”
“I'm
Bella -Bella Madison.” Said Bella shaking my hand.
I turn to Seraphim Dido. “I
apologize for earlier. Gary always gets me heated up -he's not the same Gary
Oak that is on TV. We've been rivals since we were babies.”
“I can
see now.” Said Seraphim Dido. “So you guys really are the Connors -and you must
be Nathaniel Connor's daughter.”
“Yeah -he
taught me everything he knows.” I said. “I just got Charmander today. My
father's Charizard breed with another female Charizard named Charlotte that
belongs to Professor Oak.”
Dido put her hand out and said “Apology
accepted. Bobby, Zack, Derek, pleasure meeting you guys as well.”
“Nice meeting you as well fair
maiden.” Bobby said, taking Dido's hand and kissing her knuckles. Litwick, who
was still in Gary's hands, suddenly sensed the gesture and sprung into action.
The purple flame atop its head burned so brightly, all the lights suddenly
bursting out as it shot a fire attack all around. Everyone ducked. Dido seeming
unfazed as she took her agitated litwick and cradled it in her arms while
saying, “It's okay, no need to get fussy.”
Her litwick calmed down in its
trainers arms and soon found its way back on top of her head. It made itself comfortable
and remained there.
“Litwick has a bit of a temper on
flirters.” Dido said to Bobby. “Sorry about that.”
“Oh no, by all means lighting him on
fire will finally wake him up from his little fantasy." Derek said,
earning a glare from Bobby but he only chuckled.
“I'll help with the light bulbs.”
Dido said. “Litwick, if you please.”
“Li~" Her Litwick sang and its
eyes glowed an eerie blue. Dido was lifted off her feet and was soon soaring
through the room, taking a box of light bulbs and taking out the broken ones,
replacing them with the new ones. Junior and Bella only watched in awe till
Bella said, “Sorry for interrupting the battle.”
“No problem, there's always next
time.” Junior said and turned to Gary. “What do ya say, Gary?”
“Hmm? I guess if I want to please a
fan.” Gary replied, making Junior nearly lunge but was held back by her
cousins. Gary merely laughed till he was hit in the back of the head by Dido
and Bella.
“Jerk.” Bella said.
“Trainer with no heart!” Dido added
and the two stuck their tongues out. Gary only glared and mumbled “Ugh,
whatever!”
Professor Oak only laughed and Bella's
Ditto shape shifted into Litwick who nearly had a panic attack.
“You have the attitude as that
trainer with the Weavile!” Professor Oak laughed suddenly catching Dido's
attention.
“Trainer with a Weavile?!” Dido
asked, Litwick looking on high alert as well. "You've seen him?!”
“Yes, do you know him?” Professor
Oak asked.
“D-Did he pass by anytime, recently?”
Dido asked.
“Two weeks ago.” Gary said. “What's
the rush?”
“I've been looking for him!” Dido
said and turned to Litwick. “We've found them!”
“Li li~” Said Litwick.
“We gotta go, thanks!” Dido said and
bolted out.
~*~
Juno was on her Lapras, going towards Pallet town
for some hard-earned sleep.
“Ugh, finally!” Juno said, as she spotted the town
on the horizon. “We made it Lapras! Just a little
more 'til shore!”
Lapras
made a sing-song reply, as it sped up towards the town.
When
they got to shore, Juno jumped off Lapras gratefully and stretched.
“Come on Lapras, into the ball, unless you would like to
try and keep up with me, of course.” Juno told Lapras, holding up a Pokéball.
Lapras
made its reply by starting to shuffle forward.
“Okay, if that's what you want, I'll
follow.” Juno said laughing.
They
were just entering the town, when a trainer dashed out of one of the houses
with a Litwick.
“What's a trainer with a Litwick doing
here? Oh well.” Juno said shrugging. “Off
to the Pokémon center we go~”
~*~
Derek, Bobby, Zack, Gary, Bella,
Professor Oak, and I went go back to the battle.
“Let's do this!” I said. I point
ahead. “GO CHARMANDER!”
Charmander goes forward into the battlefield. “CHARMANDER!”
“GO GROWLITHE!” Called Gary.
Growlithe comes out. “GROWLITHE!”
“Growlithe, use Bite!” Said Gary.
Growlithe charges at Charmander.
“Charmander, dodge and use Scratch!”
I said.
Charmander dodges and goes to use
scratch.
“Growlithe, hit him with an Ember!” Said
Gary.
Growlithe obeys and shoots Charmander
with an Ember.
Charmander goes down.
“Charmander, are you okay?” I ask.
Charmander nods his head and gets up. “Charmander!”
“Growlithe, finish him off with
another Ember!” said Gary.
“Oh gosh,
she is sucking!” I hear Bobby.
“It is
only the beginning of the battle.” I hear Zack.
“She was
sucking before too!” I hear Bobby.
“Shut up
Bobby!” Said Zack.
“What, it’s
not like she can hear us.” Said Bobby.
“Bobby -I CAN HEAR YOU!” I yell.
“Oops.” Said
Bobby. “Well you are sucking, Junior!”
“Charmander, dodge again and use Scratch!”
I yell.
Charmander dodges again, but Growlithe
leaps up and roars at him, making Charmander dizzy and scared with his head
down.
Gary folds his arms. “Face it Junior!
You just don't have it in you!”
I grind my teeth and narrow my eyes. “You
know what Gary -you are WRONG! I DO HAVE IT IN ME AND I'M GOING TO PROVE IT TO
YOU RIGHT NOW!” I look at Charmander. “Charmander, we can do this! Let's show
him!”
Charmander gets back up again with his
green eyes narrow -Wait, how can he have green eyes when Charmander’s have blue
ones? Never mind now.
“Growlithe, finish him off with an Ember!”
Said Gary.
Growlithe spits out Ember.
“Charmander, use your tail to catch
the Ember!” I said.
Charmander obeys and the ember goes on
his flaming tail, turning into a bigger fire.
“What the
heck?” I hear Bobby getting up along with everyone else.
“Now Charmander, charge it up!” I
said.
“What do you think you're doing
Junior?” Questioned Gary.
I ignore him as I watch the fire get
bigger and bigger.
“Whatever.” Said Gary. “Growlith,
use bite!”
Growlith runs up to Charmander.
“Now Charmander! Launch it!” I said.
Charmander nods his head and swings
his tail over to release the fire, hitting Growlith head on.
Growlithe is knocked out.
“The winner is Junior!” Declared
Professor Oak.
“B-but how?” Said Gary.
I smile and pick up Charmander. “Great
job Charmander! You did it!”
“Char.” Said Charmander grinning.
“There has to be a mistake.” said
Gary. “I have been training for a month now and never lost -she just started
today- and beat me?”
Oak turns to his grandson. “Gary,
Edward Connor, Michael Connor, and Nathaniel Connor, were natural prodigies in Pokémon
battles -and Junior inherited that and is the next one in line.”
“That's not fair!” Said Gary.
“Wait
what?” Bobby walks up to me. “No -I am going to be the best one in the family-
NOT YOU!”
“Would you shut up Bobby!?” I said. “It
was ONE Pokémon battle!”
Zack gets
in the middle of us two. “Don't fight over it!” He turns to me. “Good job
though!”
“Saur.” Agreed
Venusaur.
Derek comes
up from the back and puts his arm around my neck and scratches my head. “You
were great out there kiddo!”
I smile again. “Thanks!”
