The First Step

[sora]

The time has come, the day that Sora would begin his journey after all those preparations and training sessions. The excitement he had gained from this occasion had caused him to get to the Pokemon Lab at around 6 am. Sora briefly wondered if the Professor would even be in at this time, and if she was would she be swarmed with work? Deciding to at least try to see if she was in he knocked on the door to the lab.

Professor Conifer opened her door to the lab. My, someone wanted to start their Pokemon journey early. The professor took a step outside, stretched her arms above her head, then yawned. "Someone's certainly seizing the day early. Come on, follow me" she said, quite used to this routine by now. However, she wasn't quite used to it this early in the morning. Thankfully she had tried to pull an all-nighter at the lab and fell asleep at her desk. She had only just woken up moments before this boy's arrival.

She was now leading Sora through the lab. "In the back is where our starters are. One starter for trainers, but two starters for coordinators and breeders." she said to him as she walked him to the back of the lab. When they both made it, she took her seat. Before him were six starters visible to him that he could choose. Off to the side were three mystery balls. "Those three balls on the side are what we call mystery balls because literally anything can pop out of them. Quite popular here in the region for the surprise factor involved" she added.

"When you're done choosing, you can choose a backpack with it's items already inside and a pokedex and go." she continued instructing. Every bag would hold the same items for those starting out. The only difference is that a breeder got a special scarf instead of pokeballs. Professor Conifer leaned back in her chair, waiting for the magic to happen.

He looked at Professor Conifer when she opened the door, honestly not expecting for her to be in, or even awake for that matter. Before he followed her he quickly said, "I'm sorry about being here earlier then expected. I just couldn't sleep with the excitement."

After entering the lab he walks toward the area with the six pokemon. He carefully looked over each of the pokemon, noting that all of them had great potential. After a while he reaches out towards the Zoura and says, "I shall pick the Zoura."

Professor Conifer could certainly understand the excitement. So many trainers that passed through here often were. Who could blame him for wanting to start so early? Well, his pokemon was now chosen. Zorua walked over to him casually, letting out a slight yawn.

"You may choose which style bag you want and it will have the items you need to start out as a trainer. You can also choose which color pokedex you want. Once that's done, you're free to leave and start your journey" she said.

She was late, she hated being late it made her look slow and irresponsible but she was nothing like that. She was going to show them she could take charge and be the best coaching racer who ever lived. She planned to dabble as a jockey but that wouldn't come until later now she just wanted to coach. Running almost into the door to the lab she stopped and opened it up, pausing to straighten out her clothes to make herself look presentable before entering the building.

"good evening, sorry I am late got stuck on one of the routes by a herd of pokemon." Claire stated gingerly as she made her way to the back of the room and found the professor. Looking around she smiled, "Could i have one of the mystery balls please?" Claire stated not waiting for a answer but grabbing and throwing one.

The pokeball burst open and a bright light came out, and as the light took shape the pokemon flew around the room. The light finally faded after awhile, but the pokemon still flew wildly around the room.

"Ruff, rufflet!" It cried, finally spotting its new trainer. Rufflet dipped his wings and dove towards Claire. Before he could crash though, Rufflet reached out with his talons and grabbed her shoulder as he landed. He stared her firmly in the eyes and nodded approvingly at her, lifting a wing up in salute.

"Rufflet!" He said proudly, his chest puffing out.

Claire couldn't help but shake with joy as she watched her flying bird swoop around before landing gently on her shoulder. "You will be known as Ruffy." Claire stated giving a salute back to little guy before holding out her right arm. With a small flap it jumped to her arm and rubbed the side of its face on Claire's face. "Ruff, Rufflet" It cooed gently before taking off again adventuring the entire building.

Claire walked over while her little bird was zooming around and snatched up the purse bag (number 3) and a orange pokedex flipping it open and reading the entry on her Rufflet. "We will be great friends and unstoppable racers." Claire called to her bird as it dived down and did its last minute landing cooing in her ear.

Such a long journey it was from the harbor to here, or was it a journey? A travel? No just movement. A journey meant something but what that something was... well that for the someone. A blond walked into this dusty town. He could only assume that he was in the right place, it did match its name. A dusty town so it is named Dust Town. A true name indeed. Names are important, or were they? Something to label or something to bound? Pehaps something different entirely or maybe not so different. Hm, a truely vexing thought. Ah but thats enough time wasted.

Forward he traveled into the town, up to the lab. Wait does this consider as an up? We'll say its an up. There was no need to knock either as the door was still open from those who had entered before. Well it wasn't that late was it? Oh well, not much one can do about the past. In he went. The first thing that met his eyes were the pokemon. Green, blue, red, blue... grey? Yes that was grey. It could be a red or even a blue; oh perhaps even purple. No, no, no don't get off topic. Wait there never was a topic to be started. Then start one. He looked for the professor or whatever looked like the professor. A woman stood nearby, that will be the professor. He pointed at himself, Jess, coordinator- Then he pointed at the snivy, The green please? Oh its also yellow... A lizard? A snake? No snakes don't bare limbs. Raptor? Hmm, that one. He said rather... oddly. He also pointed a finger at a mystery ball. He hadn't the slightest idea why those were there and just figured them to be what the pokemon went into. Little did he know he was also asking for a mystery ball. And that little home please? He was trying to keep himself from speaking to much because when he did he drowned himself in his observations. Bad things seemed to happen when that happened.

The Professor was standing back and watching the newbies bond with their pokemon when a very... interesting person showed up, looking this way and that as if he were a Kecleon searching for a nearby bug to chomp. She arched a brow but nodded in greetings to him all the same, chuckling as he introduced himself. "Professor Conifer" she replied, turning to face the chosen pokemon and click the button on the pokeball he'd pointed to, releasing a red light. "Enjoy your new friends. That... 'green' pokemon is called Snivy, and he is indeed a Grass Snake pokemon."

Immediately after being chosen, the Snivy darted over to Jess and climbed up and on top of him, struggling to look around and survey the area. Good... good. Things looked to be safe. Knowing this, the Grass type flomped onto the coordinator's head and ruffled through his hair, waving at the pink pokemon as she emerged from the light. An Igglybuff stood, cheeks puffed out as she waddled over to Jess, clinging to his pants and nearly bawling. She... she was so happy she had a trainer now! No more pokeball for her!
