Chapter 1: On My Way To Become A Pokemon Master



A couple of hours ago the clouds in the sky became black and the raindrops started to fall.

"Oh great!" Mina whined as she wrapped her yellow jacket over her tightly.

"Why did it have to rain right on the day I'm about to become a Pokemon trainer?"

Mina Aino was on her way to become the best Pokemon trainer a girl could possibly be. She had learned many skills on being one from her mother and she was certain that she could become a Pokemon master if she tried her hardest.

But unluckily, the day she was to begin her journey, it had to rain. Grumbling a bit Mina hugged herself for warmth from the dreary cold air as she ran to look for shelter in the forest.

Tripping over a tree root, her face got covered in mud when landing on the muddy ground. Whipping some off her eyes and mouth she got on her feet again and returned to her search for a dry place.

She smiled when she saw an enormous gap inside a tree trunk. Slipping in slightly, she sat down on the ground and placed her legs in front of her chest. She hugged herself as she laid her chin on her knees.

While she heard the thunder rumbling in the sky and the lightning flashing in the shady forest, Mina thought about her day.



~Flashback~



"Mina, wake up. You're going to be late."

Mina opened her eyes slightly when she heard her mother's voice. Sitting up and yawning at the same time she saw her mother walking back and forth in her room getting her bag packed.

"Mom?" she asked groggily as the older women packed in some clothes in the black backpack.

"Hurry up honey. You don't want to be late to see Professor Rowku. Today's the big day!" she said as she smiled from ear to ear.

Mina was slow at first but she then realized what her mother was talking about.

"AAHH!!! I am going to be late!!!" she screamed when she glanced at her stopwatch.

Jumping out of bed and running into the bathroom she turned on the shower and jumped in. (Not literarily.) She quickly took her bath and got out to change into comfortable clothes for her journey. Putting on black shorts and tank top, she had a yellow blouse over it, leaving it open. Mina then held her hair up in a ponytail and placed her black cap on.

"Perfect" she smiled as she saw her reflection in the mirror.

"Mina! Eat your breakfast and then head to Professor Rowku's lab." She heard her mother call from downstairs.

Mina answered, "coming" and dashed out of the room. But she came back again as she picked up her black backpack her mother had packed for her and then ran back down again.

In five minuets, Mina had finished eating her breakfast and ran out of the door to head to the professor's lab.

"Please don't let me be late, please don't let me be late, please don't let me be late" she chanted as she ran towards downtown.

After running four blocks, Mina saw the white building up ahead with a group of people at the entrance.

"God there's a lot of people" she commented to herself when she reached it.

The crowd was mostly adults and fan clubs holding signs up for the trainers.

"Excuse me" she said politely as she moved her way from the crowd and towards the entrance of the lab. She quickly entered when the automatic doors opened for her.

"Ah, Mina, I was wonder what happened to you." Professor Rowku greeted her when she ran up to his office. He was a kind old man with a silver beard and mustache. He had a good posture and he had glasses that would hang from the tip of his nose.

"Sorry I'm late professor." Mina apologized as she plopped on a seat from exhaustion.

"No problem Aino. You're just in time to pick the last two Pokeballs." The old man spoke as he waved his hand towards a table.

Mina instantly got off the chair and went to the table. Seeing two Pokeballs remaining she reached out for the right one. Holding it out in front of her she called out, "Pokeball go."

A ray of red light zapped out of the small hole on the red and white ball and out came a Charmander. It rubbed its eyes as he looked around.

Stars glittered in Mina's blue eyes as she fell in love with the Pokemon immediately.

"Aw, he's so cute!" she squealed as she lunged herself at the red creature and hugged it.

The Pokemon got frightened from shock and used its fire attack at his trainer by accident.

Letting out a cough, the burnt Mina blinked as Professor Rowku scratched his head.

"Wops, he's not suppose to do that" he informed as Mina dusted the ashes away.

"Pathetic" a mean voice rang into the room. Mina and Professor Rowku turned their heads at the door to see a purple haired girl with black and blue clothes on.

"Keya, what are you doing here? I thought you already got your Pokemon." The professor asked when he noticed his niece at the doorway.

"I know. I just came back to see what Aino got for a Pokemon. I wanted to see if it was weak like her." Keya explained as she had her arms crossed in front of her chest and leaned on the wall.

Mina shot her a glare as the purple haired girl just snickered.

"And look at this; Mina Aino got a Charmander for a Pokemon. Very surprising since they're pretty tough. Too worthy for its trainer." She mocked as Mina turned her hands into a fist.

Keya and Mina had been rivals ever since Keya took Mina's ice cream when they were only five. Mina had grown hatred towards the other girl after that when Keya kept bullying her and teasing her.

"Shut up Keya. It surprises me that you're Professor Rowku's niece. He's so kind and your just plain... stupid ..." Minako shot back at Keya.

The other trainer just laughed at her words.

"Is that all you can say Aino?" Keya asked as Mina's blood boiled.

"Well what Pokemon did you get huh?" The blond asked from frustration.

A smirk appeared on Keya pale face as she took out her Pokeball.

"Pokeball, go!" she yelled as her Pokemon came out of the ball and onto the floor.

Keya had gotten a Squirtle for her first Pokemon, a water type.

"I have an idea Aino. Why don't we battle" the professor's niece asked the blond as Mina took a step forward.

"You're on Keya. I hope your fan club left already or they'll see you miserably defeated. Wouldn't want that now would we?" Mina ridiculed as Keya got insulted.

"Hold it right there you two. This is a lab, not a battle ground. Go fight outside." The old professor ordered as the girls obeyed.

Once outside, Mina and Keya had both of their Pokemon's in front of them. The crowd Mina had seen when she first arrived at Professor Rowku's lab had now formed a circle around the two and watched captivatingly.

"Squirtle go!" Keya commanded as she pointed to the red Pokemon for hers to attack.

Squirtle used his water attack as Charmander jumped out of the way. Using his fire attack, Charmander's flames were extinguished by Squirtle's water attack.

'Darn it. Charmander is weak when it comes to battling water Pokemon.' Mina thought grimly as Squirtle shot his water at Charmander again; this time not missing.

Weak from the liquid, Charmander fell unconscious. Mina smacked her head from defeat as Keya made Squirtle enter his Pokeball again.

"Charmander, you ok?" Mina asked, lifting the Pokemon into her arms.

Her rival's shadow towered over her as Mina looked up. Keya's victorious green eye sparkled as she gave her a smirk.

"Well, see what I mean? You are a weakling. And I take it back what I said about Charmander. He's perfect for you. A weak stupid little Pokemon for a ditzy trainer."

Flames burned in Mina's eyes like the flame on Charmander's tail. Without warning, Mina placed her fire Pokemon down and tackled the purple haired girl.

"You witch! How could you say something like that?!!!" The blond screamed at her as she and Keya rolled on the floor fighting.

"Girls, stop it!" Mina heard her mother scream as she ran out of the crowd and towards the two.

Keya's uncle was with her as well. Grabbing Mina off of Keya, Professor Rowku helped Keya to her feet.

"Mina, I'm surprised at you. I raised you better then this" Mina's mom scolded as Mina gave Keya one last daggered stare and then returned to her injured Pokemon.

Picking Charmander up, Mina walked away from the group with her mother quickly fallowing behind.

"Mina?" her mother asked, worried about her daughter's behavior.

"Sorry mom. It's just that she pushed me too far." Mina explained as she looked down at her Charmander.

The young trainer's mother wrapped her arms around her daughters shoulder.

"Don't listen to her darling. She's just trying to make you feel bad." Her mother comforted as Mina just nodded.

"Let's bring your Pokemon to the Poke Center and get him healed." She suggested as she led Mina towards the building not far away.

When Mina was all set to go on her adventure, her mother kissed her on the cheeks and hugged her goodbye. Mina waved bye to her friends from school before she went down the path towards the forest.

"Bye guys. I'll miss you!" Mina called to them before she was out of their sight.



~End of Flashback~



Leaning her head on the tree's inside bark, she felt like a failure when she recalled about her lost with Keya.

"I have to get stronger if I ever want to defeat her." Mina said to herself as a lightning struck the sky.

Mina reached at her belt as she unhooked three Pokeballs. She smiled proudly when she remembered how she caught the two Pokemons before the rain had started.



~Flashback~



The sky was still light blue as the sun glimmered in the forest. Mina had already wondered in the forest to head for Pewter City.

"Hum... I'm sure I took the right way..." Mina thought as she looked around her surroundings.

She had been walking for a while and her feet were hurting. Sitting down on a bolder she took her cap off and whipped the sweat away from her forehead.

Right when she was about to take out her bottle of water, a Pidgey landed on a tree branch in front of her. A smiled formed on theblon's face as a plan was made in her mind.

Instead of taking out her bottle of water, she took out an empty Pokeball. After getting it out quietly, she took out her only Pokemon, Charmander.

Mina swiftly threw Charmander's Pokeball towards the ground as he came out.

"Get him!" she ordered as he used his fire at the flying Pokemon. Pidgey was too slow to notice what the blond was trying to do and was caught in the flames.

When it died out, a burnt Pidgey lay on the floor as an X was planted on his face. (x_x) A sweat drop fell from Mina's head when she saw her new Pokemon.

"I didn't mean kill him Charmander" she said as Charmander looked at her innocently.

Mina threw the empty Pokeball at Pidgey and captured him. A couple of minuets later a Caterpie crawled out of a bush near Mina's and Charmander's location.

The trainer and its Pokemon both eyed each other as they knew what the other was thinking.

"Go Charmander!" Mina commanded. But she quickly added, "But this time don't kill him!"

Charmander tried to obey as he sent out his flames at the bug Pokemon. As an alternative of trying to be gentle to the Pokemon, Charmander's flame was a small speck of fire as it swallowed up the Pokemon.

When the fire faded Caterpie was on the floor, his eyes an X as well. (x_x)

"Man, we got to watch out with that fire thing of yours" Mina commented as she threw another empty Pokeball at the beaten Caterpie and captured him.

Once she held out her two new Pokemon's Pokeballs, a huge smile spread across her face.

"Hehehe, alright! I have three Pokemons!" Mina cheered as she held out her V pose.

Charmander joined her as well as he held out a peace sign. Mina laughed at her Pokemon's actions but was then distracted when she saw the sun depart. The sky began to change from sky blue to gray/black.

"Looks like a storm is coming. Sorry pal, but you better get back in your Pokeball" she took out Charmander's Pokeball and sent him back in.

Looking at the ball in her hand, Mina smiled.

'Thanks Charmander. We're going to make a great team.'



~End of Flashback~



Mina hooked the three Pokeballs back on her belt as she heard the thunder die down and the rain stopping suddenly. She smiled when she saw the sun appear out of the dark clouds again.

Crawling out of the hole in the tree, she stood up and dusted herself. She was still muddy from the fall earlier and her hair was terribly messy. But Mina was determined and ready to continue her journey to Pewter City to battle the gym leader.
