Intro To Dawn of Exploration
"Once upon a time, there was a little human girl," Said the mother Ninetails to her youngest child.
"Human? Golly…"
"Yes," said the Ninetails, smiling to herself. This was a story that she had made up a very long time ago.
"Any way, this little girl loved all Pokemon. She had a Miltank and a Torchic and many other Pokemon. But her favorite Pokemon were the wild ones that she met whenever she went for walks. But do remember that she did love all Pokemon."
"Did the little girl ever see a Ninetails like you, mama?"
"I don't know. She may have at one time."
"You're a special Ninetails, mama."
The Ninetails smiled and continued her story. "One day, when she was on one of her walks, she happened to get lost. She happened to come along a Teddiursa. She asked him, 'Mr. Teddiursa, do you know where my house is?'
"'No, I do not know where your home is, and I'm kind of busy, eating… yeah…'
"'Oh, that's ok. Thank you anyway!' said the little girl."
"That's not very nice…" said the young child.
"Next, the little girl met a Chikorita who was sun-bathing in the bright sun shine." Her mother continued, ignoring her child.
"'Miss Chikorita, do you know where my house is?' the little girl asked.
"'No, I don't," the Chikorita replied irritably. 'Would you please go? You're like, blocking my sunlight.'"
"No one will help the little girl,"
"So, the little girl kept walking until she met a Snorlax.
"'Mr. Snorlax? Do you know where my house is?'
"But the Snorlax didn't answer, because he was asleep."
At this point, the baby started to laugh. The mother Ninetails smiled as she wrapped her long silky tails around the baby. She continued:
"So, the little girl kept on walking and walking until she was so tired she couldn't walk anymore. The little girl sat on a rock and started to cry. But suddenly, the rock she was sitting on started to move. It was a big Golem, and it didn't seem happy that it had been sat upon. The little girl was so scared that she forgot how tired she was and just started to run and run and run as fast as her little legs could carry her. She finally ran back home and into bed, where she fell fast asleep."
The Ninetails looked down to find that her baby was also asleep. She stood up, stretched, and went outside into the cool night air. The baby's father was waiting for his bride. The couple sat down and watched the sun set over the distant horizon.
"How is Summer?" the Lucario asked.
"Sleeping like a Snorlax," the Ninetails replied, "But not nearly as loud,"
"Chase will be back tomorrow," said the Lucario.
"I have not forgotten," said the Ninetails. "And this time I am ready to tell her my story. Our story,"
The Ninetails leaned her head on the Lucario's chest and closed her eyes, remembering nearly every detail of the last 300 years. Three hundred years since Team Diamond had started.
