At the beginning
The girl, Lillie, gripped her bag tightly. She began to sweat and noticed it clinging to her long blond hair. You would notice how afraid and nervous she was. Who wouldn't be? She had to protect the Pokémon in her bag.
I have to get out of here. I just have to. She thought while running. She could hear sounds of footsteps catching up to her. It was pointless because of the narrow walkways of the bontical garden her mother kept her so called "precious babies" that people or Team Skull have either abandoned or mistreated. Lillie felt sorry for them. As long as you did what she said by her standards, you were her favorite. Ugliness or weakness were not tolerated by her. Lillie knew her mother would never forgive her for what she did. What choice did she have? The moment she saw her mother running tests on that Pokémon, she knew she had to protect it.
"It's pointless to keep this up. Madame President needs that Pokémon for research. It is vital for this specimen to be studied. Why can't you think of the good your mother is doing?", a voice said to her. It was Faba. She was cornered by Aether employees and Faba.
Think. Think, Lillie. She scolded herself and looked around the garden. There was no way out except the elevator. She could feel her bag glow and shake. The entire room was blinded by this light. Lillie braced herself and closed her eyes.
1. Alola Region
Freya and her mother finally made it to the Alola region. It wasn't like Goldenrod City in the Johto region. The house her mother had bought was a fresh start the two of them needed. Freya's mother got a job offer that required them to move to this region and Freya would start her journey. She had seen the catologs of the trials, the region starters and along with the local favorite: masaladas. She always wanted to try one for herself. Maybe Professor Kukui will give her a tour. Speaking of the professor, wasn't she supposed to get her own starter today?
"I can't wait to start my journey. I wonder what it's like here. There doesn't seem to be any gym leaders here but they seem to go with their own general favorite type", Freya said as she skimmed through one of the catalogs. She never really battled much back in Johto. It seemed interesting for her to watch Gold and Silver battle though. The intensity and sweat inducing from both trainers and their Pokémon inspired her to become a trainer. Freya was about to walk out the door when she collided with a boy her age with green hair put up in a ponytail. Dazed, she looked up to see his grin. His green eyes reflected back hers in a way that made her feel this would be her rival.
"Alola! You must be Freya. I've heard about you from Professor Kukui and my gramps. I bet you're excited to get ya your starter. Me too. I've waited a long time...", he said as he gushed on. This overwhelmed Freya. It was weird this kid knew her even though she never got his name. She knew he was nice but he was overwhelmingly cheerful.
"Nice to meet you but I never got your name", Freya held up her hand.
"Oh! Sorry about that! I tend to rush into things without introducing myself. My name's Hau.", the green haired boy smiled as he folded his arms to the back of his head. Laid back was the term Freya came to in her mind. Friendly too. This seemed just right. She needed new friends to show her around.
"Ready to meet your starter? I'm sure my gramps and the professor must be waiting", Hau held out his hand to her
