The desks in the classroom were in pairs. The teacher did this so that everyone would have at least one person to talk to on their first day of school. A few of the students already knew each other from kindergarten.
"Now, I want everyone to pick a desk. It'll be your seat until the school holidays." The teacher told her class.
The children all ran to get the desk that they thought would be the best one. Almost as soon as they were joined by another student the two would be talking and laughing. But poor Ash Ketchum was left out. There was no one at the desk next to him.
The teacher walked to the front of the classroom. The classroom slowly went silent.
"Today will be a day to introduce ourselves and make new friends. You will be in this class for the rest of the year and it'll be a lot more fun if you all know each other. So, I'm going to let you guys talk with each other. Just stay in the classroom." The teacher went to sit at her desk and work on some activities for her class. The students started talking amongst themselves and moving chairs to sit in groups.
Ash sat at his desk, hoping that someone would come and talk to him. Ash was a shy child. He didn't have a lot of courage either. Everything scared him. One time a wild Pidgey was sitting on the handle bars of his bike and he freaked out. His mother had to chase it away before he would even go outside again.
A knock on the door interrupted the teacher from her work. She looked up to the classroom door. An old man was standing there with young boy. She got up from her desk and let them in.
"Sorry we're late. Someone was running around chasing a Rattata instead of getting ready for school." The older man said.
"Well it's not my fault Gramps. It was annoying me." The younger boy said.
"It was sitting there minding it's our business. Look, I don't want to talk about this now. I have work to do. I'll see you this afternoon after school."
"Okay. Smell ya later, gramps." The young boy laughed and ran into the classroom.
"Thanks for dropping him off Professor Oak." The teacher said then followed the boy into the classroom. "So you must be Gary."
"Yup. That's me." Gary replied and looked around the room, seeing everyone talking and laughing except a boy in the corner by himself.
"Okay, your desk in that one over there in the corner." She pointed to the desk next to the boy by himself. "Today we are getting to know one another. I'll be at my desk if you need me." The teacher walked back to her desk and kept working on the stuff she was doing before.
A few students looked up at the newcomer. Most had seen him before from Kindergarten or helping out in the field with his grandfather. Gary walked over to the desk he had been assigned. He put his bag on the floor next to it and took a seat. The boy next to him looked up at him.
"Hi. I'm Gary." He smiled.
"I'm Ash." He smiled back.
