It looked like a normal any other day. Dawn was walking around the school hallways chasing after a small blue bird. Dawn was only 8 at the time, she enjoyed being outdoors. She would always feel free and happy especially when shes with Pip. The small blue bird is Pip, her pet bird.

"Pip come back, Slow down" Dawn said trying to catch up to Pip. Pip didn't stop at all nor did he tweet. Dawn continued to chase after Pip. The hallway was so long it seemed endless.

"Pip please come back!" Dawn begged in her little girl voice.

"Slow down please, i'm getting tired please stop!" Dawn continued to beg.

Pip didn't stop flying. Instead of stopping when Dawn stopped running and plopped her hands onto her thighs to try and catch her breath, Pip sped up and went around the corner into another hallway.

"PIP!" Dawn cried as she got back up and started to chase after the bird.

when she turned the corner, Pip was gone. the hallway was partially lit by the lights. some lights were broken others were blinking.

"Pip, come on don't play games lets go home" Dawn begged in a small quiet voice as she looked around, but couldn't spot the bird. She walked slowly looking all around. She heard something, footsteps but who?

"Why if it isn't Dumbsly Dawn, oh and look she's crying like always" Dawn heard a high pitched little girls voice. Dawn turned around only to spot the one person she didn't want to see around. Ursula.

Dawn turned around to try and run away but when she turned around there were 2 people standing in her way blocking her escape. Aria and Solidad.

"w-what do you want from me?!" Dawn asked scared as she walked backwards towards a wall

"Oh nothing we just seemed to pass by its nothing you should be scared of" Solidad said rolling her eyes as she and the other 2 were walking closer to Dawn.

"Oh come on Solidad, just tell her the truth" Aria snickered

"Yea you see Dawn, you did a mistake to exist here in our school. you did a mistake for trying to be the better girl. You tried to be someone your not. You tried to take my place and for that i'm gonna show you a lesson" Ursula claimed with a threatening tone in her voice.

Dawn cried as she got beat up by the 3 of the girls. Dawn was curled up hiding her face as the kicking continued to feel worse and worse every moment of it. Her soft pink dress got dirty and ripped as the kicking continued. Not being able to defend herself Dawn cried tears of pain.

At an instance Dawn opened her eyes to see a light. the kicking had stopped and Dawn could finally get up. she heard voices calling her name from the light infront of her.

"Dawn, Dawn, Dawn wake up Sweetie"

Dawn walked into the warm light.

At an instance Dawn opened her eyes to see she was dreaming the whole time.

Looking around confused Dawn sat up.

"You were sleep talking and crying again" Dawns mom said hugging her blue haired daughter close

"Oh mom" Dawn cried as she wiped the tears away with the back of her hand while her mom hugged her

"I promise this time none of that evilness will happen" Her mom said as she released Dawn from the hug and handed her a water bottle

"I hope so" Dawn said opening the water bottle to take a sip. Glamsey walked out from under the seat to sit on her moms lap. Glamsey is a grey shorthaired cat her mom raised since she was little, Glamsey is a breed of Glameow cats. They are very fiesty but fun company to have around.

Dawn owns a small blue bird named Pip, its a breed of Piplup birds. As they grow up they get alittle bigger and new colored feathers in their coat but other than that they are very kind and curious birds. They love to be around people even if that person gets annoyed of the bird.

One thing was for sure, Pip loves to annoy Glamsey so thats why they don't get along so well. Including the fact Glamsey tries to catch and eat Pip.

"Hey mom so when will we arrive to the Sinoh Region?" Dawn asked as she pet Glamseys small head

"I don't quite know but we'll know for sure when we arrive. It'll stick out since theres gonna be alot of houses around. It is a big city so we'll know when we see it" Her mom answered

"Will we be living in the city?" Dawn asked

"not quite, the city can be a dangerous place at times so i managed to find a neat house for the 2 of us not too far from the city but its not too far from a land full of grass and farms" Her mom answered grabbing her phone to show Dawn something

"Is that your new job?" Dawn asked seeing a picture of a building

"Yep, that's where i'll be working from now on. Being a Fashion Designer who is really well known is gonna be crazy to the both of us but i promise to make time for my sweet beautiful daughter of mine" Her mom said hugging her daughter again

"The building looks so neat, i can't wait till we go to decorate it up and get it ready to sell your amazing dresses, shirts, skirts, omg theres just so much" Dawn smiled as she started to fantasize how great it'd look in person once it was ready to open to the public.

"The only reason to why its gonna be so famous is because you just love to decorate rooms and create new outfits like this one" Her mom said as she pulled up a picture of the very first dress Dawn made when she was little.

"OMG how do you still have that" Dawn said shocked as she saw the dress.

It was a knee length blue dress with sparkles on the whole dress. the sleeves were long and a darker shade of blue with a white laced design on the ends of the sleeves. On the back there was a small Dark blue cape with light blue lacing a design all over it. The dress was made with alot of effort even though it was so simple.

"that was your very first dress you made how could i not keep a picture of it" Her mom smiled as she put her phone away back into her bag. Glamsey lifted her tail to tickle Dawns nose.

"Silly cat that tickles" Dawn laughed as she moved the tail away from her nose.

"So once we arrive to our new home we should start unpacking our basic stuff. seeing this train ride is not to the city yet, we may have to unpack tomorrow the rest of the stuff. so for now lets just unpack our basic needs" Dawns mom said as Glamsey got comforty on her lap

"Yea ok. what about your job?" Dawn asked

"Well I'm manager so unpacking that place as well should be some other time when we have plenty of time. Knowing you, your gonna take your time to help me decorate the place and get it ready before the day comes to when its show time" her mom answered

"Mom you said show time" Dawn teased

"I'm sorry being a fashion designer makes me say crazy things like that" Her mom laughed

"Hey mom do i really have to go to a new school?" Dawn asked looking at the train window to see a small fox running into the woods

"Yes sweetie, we talked about this you need to go to school to graduate and have a good future. I cant home school you either, i'll be working from 7 in the morning to 6 in the afternoon. As much as you don't want to, you know you have to" Her mom answered taking Dawns hand in hers

"Mom what if it happens again? What if the bullying doesn't stop. What if i don't fit in?" Dawn asked

"Sweetie the key word is "What If" just stop worrying this is a new start in a new place you don't know what can happen until you see what happens for yourself i promise you you'll be fine" Her mom said comforting her Blue haired daughter

"Yea i know that mom, but this is middle school. there will be more drama. more people. more troubles. I'm only 14 do i really know i can survive this?" Dawn asked

"I'm sure you can. Your my daughter. All those bullies from Twinleaf taught you something, they helped you learn how to be strong how to block out those evil creatures. How to survive" Her mom clarified

"Mom" Dawn sighed "I'm really scared about this" She confessed

"I'm scared too but we can be strong together can you promise me that" Her mom asked

Dawn nodded as she held in the tears from her eyes. She looked down as she noticed Glamsey had walked off her moms lap and placed a paw on her thigh. Looking down Dawn could see Glamseys huge eyes staring at her like she was telling her she had nothing to worry about.

Dawn smiled as she pet the cats fur. The cat got comfortable to the petting that she ended up sitting on Dawns lap and fell asleep

"Pips gonna get jealous" Dawn laughed when she saw Glamsey was asleep

"Don't worry Pip won't know. I bet he's asleep in his bird cage as well" Her mom claimed

"Who knows" Dawn giggled

"look at that sunset isn't it beautiful" Her mom stated as she looked out the window close to Dawn

"Wow" Dawn whispered

"Oh and look at that theres the Sinoh Region" Her mom said as she saw a huge city not far from where they were

"We'll be seeing that same sunset everyday?" Dawn asked in awe

"I guess so" Her mom answered

"I like it, its very warm and pretty" Dawn claimed looking at the sunset

"It sure is, It sure is" Her mom said in agreement.


The train finally stopped at the Sinoh Region. Glamsey was back into her pet carrier and Dawn finally had Pip back with her. The 2 girls got into a taxi as they made their way to their new home. on their way they passed by the boutique her mom was working in. It really was pretty in person.

the building had 2 floors. Display windows were all around the building. It for sure seemed to have a lot of space in the inside, and the outside of the boutique was surrounded by rose bushes and flower fields.

"I cant wait to decorate that place tomorrow" Dawn said happily as they drove past it

"Calm down, remember we have to unpack our house first then we can unpack the boutique" Her mom stated

"Oh yea" Dawn laughed as she remembered

Her mom laughed at her daughter making Dawn smile like a toddler.

Dawn looked down to see that Glamsey wanted to get out of her pet carrier. not making any progress the poor cat gave up but when she noticed Pip wasn't so far, she tried to reach out and catch the blue bird. Dawn noticed Glamsey was so close to grabbing Pip's tail she was gonna move the cage until the taxi hit a speed bump.

MEOWWWW

Glamsey whined as the speed bump bumped the carrier alittle bit away from the bird cage. It also scared Glamsey when the carrier jumped thanks to the speedbump. Dawn laughed at the cat as she put her attention to look out the window.

"This place is so big and beautiful" Dawn claimed as she saw so much.

every building she saw had alot of flowers and nature outside in front of the buildings. there were alot of people walking outside at the time it was.

Driving on, Dawn started to see many houses instead of buildings. The houses were all so colorful and pretty. they were all full of decoration outside in the front yards. trees were anywhere around the houses and the place was simply full of nature.

Dawn couldn't help but smile.

Eventually they arrived to their new home. The house had 2 floors. a large grassy yet nice front and back yard. there was a balcony on the 2nd floor towards the front of the house. the inside was a mystery for now that was.

"Thank you again" Dawns mom said as she paid the taxi man

"Anytime and welcome to Sinoh" the man said as he pulled up his windown and drove off back into the city.

"Lets go i wanna see the inside" Dawn said excitedly

"Did i forget to tell you, our furniture may already be in the house i had a friend of mine drive our stuff here before we arrived" Her mom said as she grabbed the house key

"really? can we still decorate though?" Dawn asked

"you can decorate your room, everything else was already remodeled for us" Her mom answered

"Yay" Dawn said as she set Pip's bird cage on top of her box that had some of her unpacked stuff.

Her mom opened the front door and Dawn easily went inside, upstairs, and into her room.

The house was nicely modeled.

"I guess moms friend really knows how we like our houses to be modeled" Dawn said to Pip as she set her cage down on the ground. Dawn then started to move a few things around in her room. Lucky her she got the room with the balcony. She opened up the curtains, windows, and balcony doors to let in the beautiful light of the sunset.

Most of her stuff was in good places already so she didn't really do much. she walked over to her unpacked bags and boxes and made her way to put things away. In her luggage bag was all her clothes. Being really good at folding she managed to fit so much of her clothes into one box when she was packing to move.

She pulled out her bed sheets and blanket from a box in her room and did her bed. from there she started to put up some pictures of hers that were in her bags. Her bookshelf was by her bed so she started to put her books away neatly in alphabet order. Once that was done she grabbed a sticky hook from her box and stuck it close to her balcony door. there on the hook she hooked Pip's cage onto the wall.

taking steps back she took in her new room. Her new town. and her new life.

She walked over to close the windows and balcony doors just to make sure Pip wouldn't fly away. she then opened the little door to Pip's cage and let him fly around the room. Usual bird he flew out and sat on Dawns head.

"Don't mess up my hair please" Dawn said as she walked over to her closet and grabbed her pajamas.

"So Pip, what do you think of the new place?" Dawn asked as she set her pajamas on her bed

Tweet

"I'm really scared, i cant be that strong as mom thinks" Dawn sighed as she sat down on her chair to her vanity with her make up and mirror.

TWEET TWEET TWEET

Pip tweeted alittle angrily as he pecked her head

"Ouch ok ok i won't say that again but hey you cant judge i mean i went through a lot how can i be strong if i'm afraid" Dawn sighed

Pip flew off her head as he sat on the top of her mirror to face Dawn while she brushed her somewhat long blue hair.

"Knock yourself out, i'm gonna go help mom out your cage door is opened so you can go back in your a smart bird so you close it when you are in" Dawn said as she set down her brush and got up.

TWEET

"Be back" Dawn said as she walked out the room and closed the door behind her. walking down the stairs she saw her mom was already done with her unpacking.

"Your done too?" Her mom asked noticing Dawn going down the stairs

Dawn nodded. "house looks nice" she added

"Tomorrow before we go to the boutique, i'm gonna take you in for your new school registration" Her mom informed her

Dawn was speechless the only thing she could say was "Oh"

Looking down at the floor, Dawn bit her bottom lip and made her way back into her new room. Opening the door to her room she sighed trying to take things in slowly one at a time. She got into her room and got dressed into her pajamas. Pip was already in his cage, the cage door was closed, and Pip just sat there eating from his small seed bowl.

Once dressed in her pajamas, Dawn put her hair into a ponytail and walked out onto her balcony to see the stary night above her.

"Ok Dawn, theres nothing i should be afraid of. New oppertunities are going to rise and i'm gonna take them. Here's the plan, don't trust others until you get to know if they really are good people other than that don't talk to strangers" Dawn told herself in a whisper toned voice.

She looked up at the stars and started to join stars together finding constellations.

"Trust is something you learn not something you give, I sure hope these people here know this" Dawn mumbled

with that said Dawn stayed out watching the night sky and the lights in the city that started to turn on already. She walked over to one side of the balcony and saw that her mom really was right. there was a land full of farmlands that wasn't so far from her home. If there was a line or a border that split the 2 lands apart then that line would be right on her new house.

Dawn laughed at the thought of a huge white line right on her house roof. She stood outside for a while as she continued to think of what wonders could be waiting for her. What kinds of people she was going to find in her life. What kind of life she was now starting.

Getting sleepy Dawn walked back into her room. Into her bubbled designed bed sheets. and fell asleep.
