Disclaimer: I don't own Pokemon, i only own myself,and this pen....which you can't have o.O;; And my pride for the Winnipeg Blue Bombers. GOOO BLUE BOMBERS! ^_^

I thought of this story in 1999...whoa, during the summer. This story is based in my life, but pokemon has come! AHAHAH! Anyways this story proves that even though your different, you just as strong.

Setting: This takes place in our world, except pokemon have come alive, many become trainers, but some never leave home. This story takes place in a town called Winnipeg,MB(W00T!),Canada, where this year, girls and boys ages 10-15 get their own pokemon. Most either get the three basic pokemon,Bulbasaur, Squirtle, or Charmander. Some choose wild pokemon. They either get Weedle, Caterpie, and Nidoran -male and female- . The girls either get Caterpie(because of butterfree) or Nidoran -female- . The boys,too, either get Weedle(because of beedrill) or Nidoran -male- . Got the setting? Good! Writing in italic means thinking!

A new journey...

!(!(RING)!)! A muffled groan came out from under the pillow, then a hand smacked the alarm shut. The girl popped her head out of the tangle of blankets and pillows. She got up and looked into the mirror. i* Finally...today.....I'm gonna be one.* /i The girl pushed her newly highlighted hair, which was brown with blonde highlights, and rubbed her eyes. She looked to the clock....9:34?!?!? She overslept!(how overdramatic i am.) She quickly got dressed, brushed her hair, and ran into the bathroom to brush her teeth. The girl then ran into the kitchen to eat some pop tarts( i do no own pop tarts).

"Well finally you woke up!! You're gonna be late! That alarm rang 9 times,EVERY NINE MINUTES!" her mom,Christine, yell impatiantly.

"Well I'm SORRY if i was tired!" the girl said sarcasticly/impatiantly back. After eating a couple of pop tarts, drinking some milk, she took off back to her room.

i*Today...i become a pokemon trainer. No one can stop Stefany Shirley on becoming a pokemon master!*/i She giggled a bit and grabbed backpack full of supplies. She ran out of her room, kissed her mom on the cheek and said "BYE!" as she put on her shoes and ran out side. She then met Kirstin, now liked to be called Kirsten.(pfft).

"Hey..." said Kirsten.

"Hey..." Stefany answed back. Kirsten had been her friend for 6 1/2 years, because when she moved her when she was 4 years old, Kirsten and everyone hated her, except for one little boy...

A sorta chubby boy came up their driveway( mine and kirsten's driveways are connected),panting. It was Jordan. The boy that was only three months younger that her, yet he was always by her side and her never teased her. She was 12, he was 11, and was to be turning 12 about a month from know.

"Still struggling eh Jordan?" Kirsten jokes. Jordan gave a normal look.

"Kirsten! Hey Jordan! Stefany said.

"Hi.." Jordan replied. "When do we get our pokemon?" Kirsten and Stefany shruged.

Just then their parents came out and up, and told them that they were going to the pokemon lab, in Charleswood.(A part in winnipeg.).

---------------------------------------------------------------------------- --------------------------------------------

20 minutes later, in the poke-lab in Charleswood.

The three stood there with 12 other childen. There was a man telling them about pokemon and such, then led them to with 15 pokeballs lay. One by one they went in solo. Kirsten went in third last.

"Here Kirsten." said Prof. Davidson.

"Thanks!!" said Kirsting gleefully, and then left back outside. Jordan went in after she got out.

"This is yours,Jordan" said Prof. Davidson as he gave it to Jordan. Jordan smiled and thanked him, then left.

The last person, Stefany, went in. Prof. Davidson frowned at the last pokeball. He looked up at Stefany and smiled suddenly.

"Here Stefany, the last one." he said as he gave her the last pokeball, she thanked him and then the walked outside.

"You know have your own pokemon, take care of them, and train them. But most of all, be friends with them. Good luck, god bless." said Prof. Davidson, before the burst out in cheers and left to start their journey. Stefany Jordan and Kirsten said good bye to their parents, and walked up to the edge of Jaialai Forest.

"I wanna see what your pokemon looks like Stefany!" Kirsten said, admiring her Caterpie. Jordan had been admiriring his own Nidoran -male-.

"Ok....but why was--" Stefany answer but was cut of by Kirsten's impatiant "HURRY UP!". So she released her pokemon."I chooose you, pokemon!!" Stefany yelled.

".....what???"
