Jiminy Cricket's First Morning
It the 20th of December and it was a cold winter's morning in DillyDale and at Forest House, Yarnell the Deer was asleep in his bed while his Guardian Ventus Skyros was asleep in his closed ball form on Yarnell's bedside table and his Pokémon Sister Sawsbuck was asleep at the bottom of Yarnell's bed. After a few minutes, however, Yarnell opened his eyes and sat up in bed.
"Wake up Skyros," Yarnell said gently to his sleeping Guardian.
In response, Skyros opened up in his open ball form.
"Good morning Yarnell," Skyros greeted his Partner.
"Good morning Skyros," Yarnell greeted back.
Sawsbuck opened one eye and then another and she yawned and stood up.
"Good morning Yarnell. Good morning Skyros," Sawsbuck greeted Yarnell and Skyros.
"Good morning Sawsbuck," said Yarnell and Skyros both at the same time.
Then Yarnell climbed out of his bed and walked over to his desk where Jiminy Cricket was asleep in a small bed made from an empty match box.
"Jiminy. Jiminy. It's time to wake up," said Yarnell as he nudged Jiminy gently.
In response, Jiminy yawned and he sat up in his little bed.
"Good morning, Yarnell, Skyros and Sawsbuck. How are you?" asked Jiminy.
"We're fine. Did you sleep well on your first night in DillyDale?" Yarnell asked Jiminy as he climbed out of his match box bed and got dressed into his fancy clothes.
"I slept great," said Jiminy.
"That's good to hear," said Yarnell.
"So what are you planning to do on your first day?" asked Skyros.
"I'm not sure. Never thought about it," said Jiminy.
"Well, last night I got a phone call from Summer," said Yarnell, "She said she, Falconeer and her best friend Sideshow Mel are going to take you out for the day in Springfield today."
Jiminy smiled when Yarnell said that.
"That is very kind of them, I will be happy to explore Springfield with them," said Jiminy.
Suddenly the smell of something delicious came drifting into Yarnell's bedroom and Jiminy smelled it.
"Do any of you smell that?" asked Jiminy.
Yarnell, Skyros and Sawsbuck sniffed too.
"That will be my mum cooking breakfast," said Yarnell, "You'll like her breakfasts she cooks for me, Sawsbuck and my Dad. She is a very good cook."
"It smells good. I wonder what she is making for breakfast," said Jiminy.
"Yarnell! Breakfast is ready!" came a female voice from downstairs.
In response, Jiminy jumped onto Sawsbuck's Muzzle while Skyros hopped onto Yarnell's head and the four of them headed downstairs for breakfast.
In the Kitchen, Yarnell's mother Frida had cooked Pancakes, eggs and bacon for breakfast. Yarnell's father Rocco had already tucked into his breakfast.
"Good morning Mum," said Yarnell as he, Skyros, Sawsbuck and Jiminy came into the kitchen.
Frida heard him and smiled.
"Good morning Yarnell honey," she said, "How did you, Skyros and Sawsbuck sleep?"
"We slept well," said Yarnell and Sawsbuck and Skyros nodded in agreement.
Frida then turned towards Jiminy and smiled at him.
"Good Morning Jiminy," Frida greeted him.
"Good Morning Frida," Jiminy greeted her back.
"How are you today on your first morning here in DillyDale?" asked Frida.
"I am fine," said Jiminy.
"That's good to hear," said Frida.
"So what's for breakfast, Mum?" asked Yarnell.
"Pancakes, eggs and bacon and some Orange juice too," said Frida.
Yarnell, Sawsbuck and Jiminy sat down at the table to enjoy their breakfast. When Yarnell had introduce Jiminy Cricket to Rocco and Frida, Rocco had been surprised and Frida had been extremely excited.
"So Jiminy, what are you going to do today?" Rocco asked Jiminy as the Cricket drank some Orange juice.
"Yarnell said that Summer, Falconeer and this "Sideshow Mel" fellow are going to take me out for the day in Springfield today," said Jiminy.
"That's sounds nice, do enjoy it," said Rocco.
"I will," said Jiminy and he turned to Yarnell, "By the way what time are they going to pick me up at?"
"Ooh, around about 8am," said Yarnell.
"OK," said Jiminy with a smile.
"I've been thinking how nice having you here to celebrate Christmas with us," Frida said to Jiminy, "It will be nice won't it?"
"Yes, it will be," said Jiminy and they continued on eating Breakfast.
