Sapphire eyes watch as the final sunrays disappear over the horizon. Fingers run through the grass impatiently. Aiden begins to whistle his favorite tune when a hand covers his mouth." You shouldn't be out this late. Someone could hurt you." a voice coming from behind him. A huge grin spreads on Aiden's face as he pulls his friend's hand off of his face. A red-haired boy sits next to him sticking his tongue out.
" Shouldn't you take your own advice Shawn or are you to cool for that?" He giggles as he boops his friend on the nose before looking downwards at the farm that his mother owned. The hush of night slowly falling over them was peaceful though he knew that the next day would be of excitement and wonder. Aiden would be leaving for a journey with a new Pokemon Companian. It was all he talked about since he finished Trainer's school. He leans over onto Shawn taking a deep breath before speaking. " Are you going to miss me when I'm gone?" Shawn nodded petting Aiden's head his eyes half-lidded as if he were in deep thought. Sitting up from Shawn's lap he pulled tilted his head.
" What's wrong? You aren't very talkative tonight. Are you that bothered that I'm leaving?" Aiden begins to worry that his friend isn't telling the entire truth. What was wrong? Did he do something or was something on his mind? His friend begins to get up and walking closer to the edge of the cliffside of where they were. He seemed despondent to the point it was becoming worrisome. Shawn turns around his eyes shut as he pulls out of his backpack a Pokeball It would seem like a trivial item to most, but to both of them, it was a sign of their friendship.
Aiden quickly retrieves his from his pocket before walking over to Shawn. Pressing his Pokeball to Shawns' a melody begins to play. It was a song that apparently Shawn's grandfather had written for him only to be shared with a true best friend. Aiden looks into Shawn's golden eyes only seeing sadness. Putting the ball away, he wraps his arms around him not knowing what to say.
" Aiden...I was thinking...what if I gave you your first pokemon instead of you getting yours from the Professor?" Shawn's voice soft as he spoke. Aiden pulls away confused about what his friend meant. Did Shawn go out and get him a Pokemon? If he did then he would happily accept it.
" I'd love that. What Pokemon did you have in mind? " Aiden's voice rang with excitement. Did he have the pokemon on him or would he give it to him tomorrow when he had to register with Nurse Joy?
" Well... I was thinking a Zorua." His friend then holds out another Pokeball with an inscription on its casing. 'friends forever even when I'm gone.' It was an amazing gift, but Aiden couldn't take a Zorua from his friend. They were a rare Pokemon that didn't live well in captivity.
" Where did you get this? And how did y-" Aiden is cut off with a kiss from Shawn. Before Shawn takes Aiden's hand lifting it to his heart. A red glow and the Pokeball falls from Aiden's hand to the ground shaking until a click sound is made.
