Prologue
"Brady, what're you doing up?" His sister questioned as he bounced on the couch.
"I'm too excited!" He exclaimed with the brightest of smiles. "Tomorrow, I'm finally going to be a Pokémon trainer like you!" She couldn't help but smile at his enthusiasm. He had been waiting for this moment for what seemed like forever.
"Well, you don't want to be tired your first day as a trainer, do you?"
"Not really."
"Then you should probably go to bed." He sighed at his sister's comment.
"But I already told you, I can't!" He whined. She smirked, getting an idea.
"How about this, if you go to bed now, I'll give you something special tomorrow." He shot up.
"Like what?"
"It's a surprise." She said putting a finger to her lips. What she said worked, for Brady jumped off the couch and ran into his room.
"Goodnight, sissy!" He yelled before closing the door.
"Goodnight!" She hollered back. She felt a tap on her shoulder and turned around. She her twin giving her a confused look.
"What are you going to give him?" She asked. She smiled and glanced at her sister.
"You'll see." The next day came, and Brady was already getting ready for his journey. He wore a navy blue, short sleeved shirt, with black, long sleeves attached to it. He wore a pair of boot cut jeans with converse sneakers. And finally, a mango orange sweat jacket. When he was content with what he had, he headed downstairs.
"Good morning!" He yelled jumping down the rest of the stairs. Was he on a sugar high or something? His sisters looked at him.
"Good morning, Brady!" One said.
"Well, you look chirpy." The other said. He just smiled at them.
"I need to get going." He said. "My journey awaits!" He did a pose in which his arm was pointed upward in a sort of superman-ish way. They laughed at Brady's enthusiasm.
"You can't leave yet." One sister said.
"Why?"
"You still need you're Pokémon, you dunce!" She stated. He face palmed himself before speaking.
"Right."
"And I still need to give you your gift." The other one said standing up. His face lit up.
"I thought you were messing with me."
"Nope."
"What is it?!" He asked leaping in the air. Both sisters laughed.
"You are such an idiot." She declared. Brady stopped and pouted at his sister.
"I am not!" While his sister led him to pick out his starter Pokémon, the other snuck upstairs to get his gift.
"You did decide which one you wanted, right?" She inquired. He nodded.
"Of course!" He looked at the three Poké balls, and pointed to one in the left corner. "Charmander." She nodded and gave him the Poké ball.
"Following that, here are some Poké balls to get you started." She handed him eight red and white Poké balls. He willingly took them and placed them in his backpack. His eyes were practically glistening with exhilaration. Finally, the day had come.
"Brady!" He heard someone shout. It wasn't a surprise that it was his other sister. "Here." She handed him a small box. It wasn't wrapped or anything, just a box. He opened and looked up at his sister.
"Another Poké ball?"
"Click the button." He did what he was told. And once he did, a brown, dinosaur like animal popped out. He stared in amazement.
"A Cubone?!" He shouted coming to his senses. She nodded.
"Cubone was one of the first Pokémon I ever caught, and now I'm trusting that you'll take good care of him." She said. "Can you do that?" He nodded ferociously.
"Yeah, I'll take very good care of it!" He looked down at the Cubone in front of him. "Um, Cubone, you don't have to worry about me not caring for you. Ok?" Cubone smiled and said, "Cubone!" He smiled back. After saying goodbye, Brady headed out in to the world of Pokémon. His destination, Eterna City. Where he would, hopefully, win his first badge.
