Kalos Adventures

'You're both awake, that' so nice of you. I wasn't expecting to see you two awake so early in the morning' said a blond haired woman while frying eggs on a pan 'it's a big day for you two. When's Sycamore expecting you two?'

'10' yawned Sadie, a brunette, about 13 years old 'why do the people of this town wake up so early I'll never know. Just sleep a bit for once in your life.' Her voice bore heavy traces of English accent. The Allen family had just moved from their hometown to Vaneville town less than a year ago. Well, most of the family anyway.

'You know what professor Sycamore likes to do most?'

Sadie groaned as James started with another joke. The greatest joy of his life was when he could make fun of someone's name. He was blond and had green eyes. And he had started again. 'What?' she asked anyway.

'He just needs to get sicker sometimes' he said, grinning. Sadie sighed.

At Sycamore lab; 10 o'clock

'When are the children coming?' asked Prof. Sycamore, a highly esteemed Pokémon researcher.

'Any moment now' said Amy, his assistant, looking at her watch. Just then they heard someone knocking on the front door.

'That'll be them' said Sycamore getting up and toward the door.

A chubby kid with a freckled face entered the lab, looking excited.

'Professor, how are you? Aren't the others here yet?' he asked in one breath.

'They should be here any moment now' said Amy 'why don't you go and have a look at the Pokémon, Daniel?'

'Okay' said the kid and made his way towards the back door and onto the garden.

At 10:30, three kids, all thirteen years of age, waited breathlessly for their first Pokémon in Prof. Sycamore's garden.

'Here you go, Daniel' said Amy handing him a green-colored Pokémon 'take care of this little froakie'

'And here's little fennekin, for you Sadie. Be careful, she's a handful'

'And here's chespin, James. Take good care of it' she told to the blond kid giving him the last Pokémon playing in the little garden.

'Everyone, will I hope take very good care of their Pokémon' Sycamore told the three when they were back inside 'they are your partners in the journey you are about to begin'

'Professor, when are we to begin our journey, you didn't actually tell us that' piped up Sadie. She was impatient to start her adventure. Most of her class had already embarked on theirs. She had to wait because she was underage. You had to be 13 years old to be allowed to go. She and James, non-identical twins, both turned 13 only two days ago. They and Daniel (who had become 13 a day before) were the only ones left in Vaneville.

'You'll leave soon enough now, Sadie, maybe after lunch' replied Sycamore. 'However, I must warn you to avoid areas of dispute in the North West region. As you know, our country is at war, so be careful'

James yawned; he didn't care about the war. He wanted to go and have lunch and then set out on his journey. James loved to eat, yet he wasn't fat. In fact, he was quite skinny. He didn't know how but that's just how it was.

1 o'clock at Allen house; Sadie and James make last minute checks

'Got everything you need' asked mother 'poke balls, pokedex, Pokémon?'

'Yes' they chorused back and set about their journey with their backpacks on their shoulders.
