Lucas' POV

"Professor should we go now?"

"Yes we shall. Can you please grab the briefcase? I'll be outside in a moment."

"Okay Professor."

I walked toward the briefcase and picked it up feeling the Pokeball's roll toward the bottom. I've been helping Professor Rowan with his studies for as long as I can remember, but I have never seen the Pokemon in this briefcase that he calls rare.

I opened the door and walked out closing it behind me. Sandgem Town wasn't that big of a town, but it was cosey. I lived here all my life, but I never went far. I had went to Jubilife to go to school and just recently finished. I met Professor Rowan because of my father being his assistant and he fascinated me. I did want to become a trainer, but I had a passion for understanding the Pokemon world and trying to figure out the life of Pokemon, so I had wanted to stay with the Professor to live out one of my dreams.

I stared up at the sky. Looking up, I could see a group of Starly and a Staraptor flying toward Twinleaf Town. I've never been over toward Twinleaf Town beacause I've never really had a reason to go over there.

The Starly seemed to be following the Staraptor. I couldn't help but stare at the group. It was strange since Starly usely fly in the group of their evolution and Staraptor don't fly around here.

I took one step forward when a hand touched my shoulder causing me to stop.

"Lucas, what's the matter?"

I turned to see Professor Rowan.

"Oh, I saw a group of Starly following a Staraptor. It seemed unnatural."

He dropped his hand from me and took a couple steps forward while looking toward the sky.

" right. We should go check out this behavior. Where did the Pokemon fly?"

He turned towards me with one of his serious thinking faces.

"They flew toward Twinleaf Town."

"Hmmm, Twinleaf Town? There have been odd Pokemon sightings there recently. We should go."

I nodded and we started walking out of Sandgem Town. We made it to the tall grass soon after and I stopped. The Professor had noticed and turned toward me.

"Lucas whats the wrong?"

"Well sir, it's the tall grass. It doesn't look so safe."

He smiled at my comment and chuckled a little.

"Don't worry Lucas. I have repel so we'll be out of there in no time."

I hesitated a little feeling cautious about going, but the Professor's world is truthful so I went. He took out a spray and sprayed the both of us with it. It smelled like nothing, but I guess the Pokemon are the only ones who can smell it.

0o0o0o0

We made it into Twinleaf Town and it wasn't anything I would have expected. I could only see a minimum of about six houses.

"It looks like the Starly aren't here Lucas. They probably headed toward Lake Verity shall we go?"

I nodded and started to follow Professor Rowan. I turned around to take one last look at the town. Just at that moment, I could see a Blond boy rushing into a house followed by a girl with dark blue hair.

"Come Lucas!"

I could see Professor Rowan walk toward what looked like an entrance of trees and I ran after him. He walked in first, leaving me to walk in after him.

I walked in and I was immediately shrouded in a ray of light. It was hard to see, but I could still make my way forward. The sunlight died down and the scene was breathtaking. I never could come to Lake Verity because of the tall grass and I had hoped to visit one day.

"Beautiful isn't it? This place is home to the legendary Pokemon, Mesprit."

I looked toward the lake and Professor Rowan and I couldn't believe that such a place could be home to a legendary Pokemon.

"HA. Mesprit. One out the three Pokemon that can cause the legendary Palkia to appear."

I heard the voice come from the entrance. The man had blue spiked up hair and he started walking up to me causing me to drop the briefcase. He was staring eye to eye with me and suddenly started walking toward Professor Rowan.

"Rowan! I see that your studies have caused you to come here. What a coincidence."

"Come Lucas, let us leave."

He grabbed the briefcase from the ground and walked out. I looked at the man and could feel his eyes glaring at me.

"I think you should follow your Professor, boy."

I turned around and ran out. I didn't want to go against someone I didn't even know. Plus I didn't have any Pokemon so I couldn't defend myself even if the worst were to happen.

I walked back toward the tall grass leading back to Sandgem Town, when I saw Professor Rowan and the two people I saw earlier in Twinleaf.

"Do you love Pokemon?"

I walked up behind the Professor. The only one who noticed me was the blue haired girl who looked straight at me.

"YES WE DO!"

The blonde boy had such energy and shouted pretty loud causing me to cringe.

Professor Rowan seemed to try to prove something to these two and asked again.

"Let me ask you again. Do you two love Pokemon?"

The blond one seemed to not give up and kept shouting.

"YES, YES AND A THOUSAND TIMES YES! WE'LL BOTH KEEP ANSWERING AND OUR ANSWER WILL NEVER CHANGE! RIGHT DAWN?!"

All of us looked at the bluenette. I could tell she didn't like the uncomfortable silence and she looked nervous herself.

"...uuhhh, yeah."

"Very well than. Lucas hold the case for a drone and open it for me."

I did as he said and opened up the briefcase. He grabbed the three Pokemon and held them out. I was shocked that he would do such a gesture to people he didn't even know. But, I guess he could feel there potential for becoming Pokemon trainers.

"I want you two to choose wisely, in each Pokeball, there is a Turtwig, a Piplup, and a Chimchar. Care for these Pokemon and you can go to places you could never imagine."

The two of them nodded and picked up a Pokeball each.

"What are your names?"

"I'm Barry and this is Dawn."

"Very well. Barry, the Pokemon you chose is Chimchar and Dawn, you have chosen Piplup."

"AWESOME! LET'S TAKE OUR POKEMON OUT DAWN!"

The girl, Dawn, nodded and lifted her hand that had the Pokeball and tossed it. Barry had done the same thing and both Pokemon emitted out of the Pokeballs.

When the lights had faded from the Pokemon. I was confused. I've never seen the three Pokemon before, but I know this was a mistake. There standing were certainly two Pokemon, but they were the same exact ones.

"How come me and Dawn have the same Pokemon? I thought they were suppose to be different types?"

"Oh dear. It seems that I may have forgotten Chimchar behind, in Hoenn. I had found all three Pokemon, but spotted another Piplup and I guess I had mistaken Chimchar and the second Piplup's Pokeballs."

I looked at both of the Piplup and than, at Dawn and Barry. Professor Rowan was getting old, but he never forgets. I guess it was one of those things.

"THAT'S OKAY GRAMPS! I'M FINE WITH HAVING A PIPLUP TOO. EVERYTHING HAPPENS FOR A REASON, AM I RIGHT?!"

"Hmmm. You most certainly are. I want you two to come to my lab in Sandgem Town. If you're going on a Pokemon adventure, I want to prepare you both first. Come."

He took out the repel and sprayed Both Dawn and Barry with it.

"Well, shall we?"
