Chapter One
Adventure?
It was 11 in the morning and I couldn't get out of bed. I felt fine, but something was stopping me. I was being held down by the weight of my own body. I just felt... Lazy.
Just when I was about to lift myself up I heard my mother yell
"Sy! Get up! Your breakfast is going off!"
'Gawd...' I thought to myself. 'I was just about to...'
I fell back down onto my bed and rolled onto the floor. I got up, put on my favorite shirt, warm grey hoodie, denim jeans and walked downstairs.
Once I got down I was greeted by my mother, May, staring at me with a dirty look.
"What took you so long?" she asked. I stayed silent, sat down and ate the eggs laid out on the table.
"I'm going to ask one more time. Why didn't you get out of bed?"
"I don't know," I replied, with my mouth full.
"Excuses, excuses," said May. I didn't reply. Instead I took my plate to the kitchen, dropped it in the sink and made my way to the door. Once I had it open, I eyed my mum, as if to say, 'Goodbye, it'll be some time' and shut it behind me.
I took a breath in the fresh air and took out my MP3. I plugged the earphones in my ears and walked through the street, to the beat of the music. As I walked, I thought to myself, 'I should go to professor Rowan's lab! It's been sometime since I last saw him.'
I went up to the house directly across from mine and knocked on the door, no reply. Before knocking again I put my earphones in my pocket. I knocked again, no reply. Just when I was about to knock for the third time, the door burst open. A boy with a knife stood there yelling, "TAILS DOLL!"
"Will, relax! Its just me, Sy!"
"Oh," he said quietly. "You've been reading too much CreepyPasta ya' know," I replied
"Yea. But you're the one that got me into them!" Will said. "You have a point there" I said quietly
"So, wanna come with me to professor Rowan's Lab?"
"Sure! But why?"
"No reason. Oh, and Will?"
"Yea?"
"Drop the knife..."
As me and Will walked to the lab, a ginger-haired teen ran right through the two of us. "Out of the way!" he yelled. As he ran off into the distance I thought, 'What could be so important that he would run right through a person, hitting them?'
Once me and Will arrived at the lab, Will said, "Going inside?" "You go ahead, I'll come in later."
Once Will went inside the lab, I sat down against the wall and stared up at the sky. I stopped... My eyes were hurting. The sun was bright today. Once I looked down, I saw something laying in the grass. I went in to take a closer look and to my surprise I saw... A Pokeball?
Strange, especially since I was outside the lab and they're kinda meant to be INSIDE. I picked it up to give it a look. I saw a label reading, KEN.
I opened up the ball and saw a riolu! It got up and looked around, seeming confused. When it saw me, it hid behind its tail. When I came in abit closer, he took a small step forward. Realizing I wasn't a threat, he jumped on my lap. I thought that it was pretty cute, and decided to keep it. I named it Ken, like on its Pokeball. I returned it into its ball and popped it into my pocket. I then walked into the lab and saw Will.
"Sy!" Will said, "I got a Jaw fossil! Rowan said I could have it!"
"Nice," I said, "Wait for me outside OK?"
"OK." Will walked out the doors and stood outside.
"Sy! Its nice for you to visit again!" said Rowan. "Indeed it is," I say, "So you gave Will a fossil?" "Yes I did! I found it back when I was a archaeologist. And I know he loves dinosaurs," he said, "So, you boys going on a Pokemon Adventure?" "Yea, I guess," I said, "Do you have any supplies?"
"Yes I do! Pokedexes, Pokegears and Pokeballs!"
"Can I have some?"
"Sure!" said Rowan, spreading the supplies out on the table. As I was gathering the tools, the proffesor asked, "Are you going to take a starter Pokemon?"
I thought about this for a while. I already had Ken. Should I take another?
"No thanks," I said. Rowan put on a strange look. "Ok then. See you soon."
I walked out of the room and saw Will, rubbing is fossil trying to activate it.
"You need to take it to a museum to get it activated, dude!" "Oh," said Will. "Ready to venture through the tall grass and catch 'em all!?" I asked. "You betcha!"
ADVENTURE TIME!
