Chapter 1: Love's In the Air
The breeze was gentle. The weather: sunny. A perfect day to catch a Pokemon…
15-year old Alex walked through the tall grass, hoping to find new Pokemon to add to his collection. But the one Pokemon he coveted so much was the Legendary Pokemon, Mew. While walking, Alex started to fantasize about how cool and how much fame he would get. Suddenly, Mew appeared!
Wordlessly, Alex whipped out a Poke ball and released his most powerful Pokemon, Blaziken. Blaziken began the attack with Flamethrower. Mew immediately responded with Reflect and deflected the attack back at Blaziken. Blaziken jumped and managed to dodge the attack. In midair, Blaziken aimed a powerful Mega Kick at Mew, but the all-powerful Pokemon brought Blaziken down with a Mega Punch. With one hit, Blaziken was down…but not out. Blaziken stood up and roared in anger and defiance and ignited his wrists in flame. Both Pokemon flew at each other. The collision resulted in a brilliant flash of light…
Buzz! Buzz! Buzz! Alex's eyes flew open then narrowed in annoyance. "Aw, weak, dude!" he thought. He sat up and checked his clock: 7:00 A.M. He looked around and saw his friends just waking up.
Goldenrod Academy is a private school in Goldenrod City (obviously). It is one of the most prestigious schools in Pokemon history. Some trainers go there to learn more about Pokemon, others were sent by their parents to get a fresh headstart on the road to becoming a trainer. Students can graduate anytime after two years of attendance; although they can leave campus for a period of time. The school offers a combination of both academic and Pokemon training classes. Alex remembered his first day.
(Flashback)
Alex arrived there for the first time and he was nervous. At public schools, he was never nervous. But he was on a different turf and somehow, he would have to survive. But first, he had no idea where to go. Most of all, his dorm room. "Ok, let's see… B121, B121…" he said to himself repeatedly.
"Hi. Are you lost?"
Alex was startled. He dropped his things and spun around. He saw a girl with long hair who was starting to giggle from his reaction. "I'm sorry. I didn't mean to scare you." She said.
Alex smiled. "It's all right. I'm new here."
"Oh. Me too. But I'll help you find your dorm room. I'm already packed in."
Alex was confused. "Isn't it on this floor?" He handed her the school map. She looked at it and burst out laughing.
"What? What's so funny?"
"Oh, nothing at all. Except…" Erin lowered her voice into a stage whisper. "You're in the girls' section." Alex fell anime-style. "Tell you what," she continued. "We'll look for your room and afterwards what say we have a little two-on-two?" She smiled impishly.
Afterwards, Alex and Erin did eventually find his room and she even helped him unpack. Erin took off two Poke balls from her belt and said, "So, you ready?"
"Let's go." Alex did likewise. They went outside and walked to a small stadium. They each went on opposite ends and threw their balls in the air. A white flash of light came out of the Poke balls and a Combusken and an Electrike came out from Alex's Poke balls. A Tyrogue and a Togetic appeared from Erin's Poke balls. And so, the battle started.
Alex couldn't help but stare in awe as Erin utilized her Pokemon expertly. His Electrike used Shock Wave to hit her Tyrogue but it jumped and grabbed Togetic's feet. Togetic then used Shadow Ball at their two opponents. Combusken barely escaped but Electrike caught the full blast and fainted almost immediately. Tyrogue then let go of Togetic and performed Focus Punch to Combusken. Like Electrike, Combusken went down. Alex collapsed in shock. However, Erin did not rub the victory in his face and instead took him out to dinner where they met Fish, Chip and Cody and they all had a grand time together.
(Flashback done!)
"Ugh…what time is it?" asked Tony, one of his roommates. He was tall and husky, with a crew cut of bright orange.
"7 o' clock, Fish" said Chip, putting on his glasses. Chip was the total opposite of Fish. Short and skinny with long dark hair. They were inseparable which gave them the nickname "Fish and Chip". They also made one hell of a team when it came to Pokemon battling. Even the most experienced trainers in the school had to think twice about challenging them.
Fish stretched and asked for the date and Alex answered "Wednesday." To Fish's delight.
"Sweet! Breakfast Sandwich Day!"
After for about 20 minutes, the three boys were dressed and walked to the cafeteria. Tony's mouth was like a Niagara Falls along the way. While on the way to the cafeteria, the trio had met up with their other friends, making the group a total of five. Erin and Cody.
Erin was a perky girl and Alex's best friend. She had long black hair and had a petite body. She was also very attractive which made her a hot topic around the boys in the school as they found out. Cody was from a different dorm. Like Erin, he had long black hair, but it was all spiked up from massive amounts of gel. He was pretty random; shouting out things like "I like shiny!", therefore, he fit in no known clique. But he was good at battling so he ended up joining their group.
As they all met up, they started to complain about the day. Classes and that sort of thing… And then Chip stopped in his tracks. His eyes got wide, his face turned a violent shade of red and his knees shook violently. The group noticed this and Tony poked him.
"Hey dude, you all right? You don't look so hot."
Chip, still in his trance, pointed. "No, but she is beautiful…" and drooled unconsciously.
The rest of the group looked his way and saw a girl with long brown hair and wearing pink in the lunch line while holding a baby Ralts. The baby Ralts playfully climbed all over her, innocently wanting attention. However, the girl was having a hard time. Her backpack was on one shoulder, threatening to fall off, her books were slipping from the crook of her arm and she kept sliding them back in, and her shoelaces were untied, thanks to her little Ralts. As she went to the cashier and paid for her breakfast (A/N: remember, this is in the morning) and walked out of the line. She tripped on her own shoelaces, her tray and baby Ralts flying out into the air and Serenity was going to have a very hard fall. Chip reacted by drawing a Poke Ball but a voice cried out.
"Cloyster! Use Ice Beam to make a slide! Lunatone! Catch her stuff!"
A Cloyster and a Lunatone came out. The Cloyster indeed used Ice Beam and the Lunatone obviously caught her stuff. Then a guy ran out and caught the baby Ralts. Serenity got up from the frozen slide and thanked the person who had saved her from a fall and possible humiliation.
"Here's your Ralts. And it was no problem. Miss…"
"Serenity. My name is Serenity."
The boy's eyes glittered and kneeled. "Ah, Serenity! Hearing your name and voice calms me like a placid lake! Your eyes are as bright as the moon!" As the boy admired her traits, everyone in the lunchroom sweatdrops except Chip who started to cry. "Damn you, Rocky!" he exclaims and slumped and dragged his feet towards the lunch line.
Erin followed him and tapped him on the shoulder. "You know, Serenity is in my dorm, so…"
This perked up Chip and in a cry of happiness, he wrapped his arms around her stomach and went on his knees and clasped his hands together. "She is?! Oh my god! You have got to hook me up with her! Please!"
Embarrassed and not expecting this kind of reaction, Erin quickly said "Ok, ok. I'll try." Just then, a fat kid behind them shouted "Ay! You're holding up the goddamn lunch line!"
How was it? RnR plz!
