Lucy woke up with a sigh. It was another boring day, at home. She brushed her long blonde hair, which took a while, due to both the knots she had developed overnight, and it's thickness in general. Once down, she put it up with a blue ribbon- her signature hairstyle.
"Lu! Come down here, please!" her Mom shouted up the stairs.
"I'm coming.." the Blonde sighed, picking out some clothes and walking into the Bathroom to change. She came out after brushing her teeth and washing her face, making her feel moderately refreshed. Her shirt was a white short-sleeve with some blue in it that stopped above her waist, and some skirt-shorts that matched it. Her blue eyes made it look completed.
"Lucy! C'mon!" her little brother, Joey, hollered.
The family Houndour called, "Hooound!"
She rolled her eyes and ran downstairs.
There you are!" her mother smiled, "Good morning."
"What time is it?" Lucy yawned.
"It's ten O'clock," Bianca Aries replied firmly.
"Oh... sorry, Mom. What's up?" Lu asked.
"I think I found you a job, Honey!" Bianca replied with a smile.
"Really!? What?"
"I'm not so sure myself. Prof. Heaven wants you to go to her lab if you're interested."
"OK! Bye!" Lucy smiled brightly before grabbing her bag, a small leather one with a long strap to put over her head an under her arm, and ran off. (A/N: I know you're thinking I broke the Poke'mon thingy where all main professors have tree-related names, but there's a tree called Tree-of-Heaven! Really, look it up!)
"Ah, Lucy! Bianca told me you were coming," Prof. Heaven smiled.
"Yeah, I'm here! Mom said she didn't know why you want me, though..." Lucy replied
"Are you sure you want the job?" the Professor asked. Lu nodded. "Follow me, then," she smiled as she walked towards a door. Lucy followed.
"What is this place?" the blonde asked, "I've never seen it before."
"Employees only, Lucy Aries- and you've been employed. This is the real lab, were we do all of our work," Heaven explained.
"Cool. ...So, what's the job?" Lucy blinked.
"It's an experiment. Here we are! This is your room. Come here to work every day," Prof. Heaven explained, opening the white door and entering the small room, with Lucy in tow.
"Is this the recruit?" someone inside asked. She was about Lucy's age, maybe a little older, with green hair and red eyes. She reminded Lucy of an Axew she'd seen on the street the other day. Heaven nodded, and the Axew-lady handed Lu a small case.
"What's this?" Lucy asked.
"Open it and find out," the Axew-lady winked, "Oh, by the way, my name's Anna. I'll be your... working partner."
Lucy did as she was told and set her item on the table, then opened it up. On the top, there was some sciency-looking stuff, which was attached by a cord to a small, clear, and removable tube on the bottom. There was another cord attached to the other thing on the bottom, a blue touchscreen electronic that showed Poke'mon and their information; much like a Poke'dex.
"What do I do with it?" she blinked.
"What's your favorite Poke'mon?" Heaven asked.
"Uh... Servine, I guess... why?" Lu replied. Instead of answering, Heaven scrolled down on the device until coming across Servine's icon. She tapped it and a 'YES-NO' screen came up. She pressed yes and the machines on the top got to work, making a potion and injecting it into the clear bottle. Anna pulled it out and handed it to the blonde.
"Drink," the Professor instructed. Lucy tilted the bottle into her mouth and clicked it back into the case. Some water squirted out from the top, then sucked everything back up, so it was clean. Everyone waited for a while, and Lucy started to feel... strange. Maybe I'm sick from the drink? she thought... but that wasn't how she felt.
Anna smiled, "It worked!"
Lu looked down at herself, and noticed what was happening. She was changing! Her arms slowly shrunk into her sleeves, and she felt them morphing with her new, three-fingered hands. Her legs also shrunk- a lot. They began to curve a bit, too, like the yellow things that were spouting from her neck. She also began to shrink as her body curved, become snake-like, and her eyes grew, turning reddish-brown. And whenever something new happened, it hurt. She shook away from her shirt, and was about to slide out of her pants when she heard a noise and felt another jolt of pain.
RIIIP! Her skirt-shorts split in half as she started growing a tail, and a leaf sprouted at the end. Only when it was over, she realized she had been turned into a Servine.
"Isn't it cool!?" Anna asked, kneeling down to see Lu's eyes.
"...It was painful... but... yeah, this is awesome!" Lucy replied, shaking her new tail.
"Every day, you'll try a few more Poke'mon. Is that okay with you?" Heaven asked. Lucy nodded.
"OK! I'm going to take you outside, into the Woods, and we're going to try some stuff- alright?" Anna asked.
"Let's go!" the Servine replied eagerly.
"Don't talk around other people, though. Practice your call," Anna said in a serious tone.
"SEER-vine!" Lucy replied. Anna nodded before standing up. Heaven had already left to do her job- she wasn't needed here. This job was for Anna and Lucy.
