The First Note

[gyron]

A small melody began to resound over the hill overlooking the small tow of Dust. After a few minutes, a girl could be seen, looking down at an acoustic guitar. Her hands rapped upon the cord, testing out the various chords and single notes, making sure that everything was in line and at the right pitch. After a bit of tweaking, the teenage girl smiled and began to play "Don't Wake Me" by Skillet, singing some of the words, putting a bit dance into her step.

She soon noticed a house that seemed different than the others and noticed the large sign indicating it was the Professors house. Abby took a small shrug and stopped playing, bringing the guitar onto her back along with her small bag. The teen girl tentatively knocked on the door and said in a voice to fit a musician, "Yo Professor! Are you home?" She smiled, not caring about her curtness. After all, she liked to speak her mind.

The door opened quickly and Professor Conifer stuck her head out to see who was calling for her, smiling when she saw Abby and opened the door wider, ushering her in.

"Come in come in! I was waiting for you. My name is Professor Conifer, but you knew that didn't you?" She chirped as they walked through her lab into a back room. Professor Conifer walked up to the large podium in the middle of the room and stood over the 9 pokeballs lined up. She opened six of the pokeballs and released the creatures inside before turning to Abby.

"You are a coordinator yes? Well, this year it is all about double performances, so you may pick two pokemon. You may choose from any of these six pokemon. You may also choose a mystery pokeball. The mystery pokemon are a gag my supplier came up with. They will bond to the first person who opens their pokeballs, so once you pick one you cannot go back. Choose carefully." She said, backing away to let Abby make her choice.

"Omg a Cyndaquil!" Abby smiled in delight and called over the little fire Pokemon. Cyndaquil happened to be a favorite of hers and although all the others were incredibly cute and wonderful, she had made a decision early on she would use a mystery Pokeball if given the chance. Since she could choose two, she decided to give it a chance and see what she got. She thought she would be able to use any Pokemon given to her.

Abby grabbed one of the spare balls on the podium and smiled, throwing it. She felt bad for the other Pokemon, essentially picking favorites, but was really happy so far with the Cyndaquil. She hoped that the mystery Pokemon was something cool though... "Oh well. Luck of the draw after all!" She said merrily.

The Professor's eyes narrowed into thin lines as she chuckled to herself, hand lifting to adjust her glasses. How did she know that such a spitfire of a girl would choose a fire type? The Cyndaquil fit well with Abby - very well indeed. And of course it was of no surprise when she stepped past the rest of the starters and grabbed an unopened pokeball.

"The Mystery Pokemon have been a huge hit with everyone lately, it seems. The thrill must outweigh the possible consequence of getting a Caterpie after all!" Conifer found herself leaning forward on her toes slightly, reclining back to a normal stance when the red light dissipated. Standing in its wake was a cream colored feline, her ears perking forward at the sight of Abby's guitar.

"Nyaaaa? What's that for, huh? Can't actually play it can you?" she purred, tail flicking back and forth. The woman shook her head.

"Well well, another talking pokemon. My friend certainly is outdoing themselves!" Feeling like the coordinator may want to get on with her journey, she stepped away from the Meowth and mentioned towards the podium once more. "Take your pick of the Pokedexes here and a box of items. Don't forget to choose what bag you'd like as well."

Abby and the Cyndaquil were both quite surprised at the Meowth speaking to them but Abby only smiled, crouching down to each of her new Pokemon. "Well, first of all, I CAN play little miss Meowth. Second, I hope that we have a good trip together."

The Cyndaquil smiled and hopped inside Abby's hood, making her giggle a bit. The Meowth yawned a bit then her eyes lit up, eventually hopping a bit. "Wait, you CAN play? That's cool, although, I bet I could play better..." She chuckled mischievously as she turned around back to Prof. Conifer. "Thank you Professor but I have a LOT of males to meet so chao~" And with that, the Meowth headed towards the door.

Both Abby and the Cyndaquil rolled their eyes, Abby walking over to the supplies and taking a dark blue Pokedex, the first backpack, and put the supplies inside the backpack as quickly as possible. "Thank you very much Conifer but my Pokemon beckon me! Goodbye!"

And with that, she exited the building and followed the Meowth a bit, thinking. "Tyrone for you..." she indicated the Cyndaquil by rubbing his head. Abby looked at the Meowth and thought a bit. "Hmmm... but what about you?"

The Meowth suddenly turned around and smiled. "Call me Missy. I sorta like that name..." Abby laughed and nodded, heading her small team towards the first Route to start off their adventures.
