AUTHOR'S NOTE: I recently started playing Pokémon's 3rd Gen. game not so long ago again and brought back so many good memories. I eventually suspected of thinking Steven (might have) had an interest in the May based off of the game and saw so many fan art of "Hoennchampionshipping" and started reading awesome fanfics. I was inspired after I read one from Lye Tea called "1. Infinity Versus" and my mind just couldn't keep going without knowing what could've happened so I made up this "sequel". Somethings will be different. I do not own Pokémon. *This is my first fanfic and I'm new to this* Enjoy!

Ch. 1 Introductions

It was a busy day in Rustboro City in the Hoenn region. Air cars were passing by, Wingulls flew high above, and children returned on their first day back to school. Retired President of the Devon Corporation was seen walking with a young girl who looked like any other school kid. She had light brown eyes with long white, shiny hair in two pigtails that stood up.

"Now listen here child, even though you may not have a Pokémon today doesn't mean you won't have one in the future. Consume all the knowledge from this school so you'll be an splendid expert! Your father and I believe in you sweetie." Mr. Stone tried his absolute best in motivating his grandchild.

"Okay papa, I understand."

After passing the East side of the Pokémon Center, a sign was soon visible from a distance and it read:

POKéMON TRAINER'S SCHOOL

"We'll teach you anything about

POKéMON!"

The girl wan't nervous at all but her grandpa kept pressuring her with everything he would say about the school. Finally arriving at the doors she effortlessly walked in and waved goodbye.

Everyone was so surprised when the Professor had introduced her to the entire class by her name...her full name. The kids gasped out "oohs" and "aahs". After being in the city in less than a week she realized her dad and grandpa were well-known in Hoenn. It didn't bother her because she was already use to being recognized everywhere. And she loved her name. Precious Jewel Stone. Before being assigned into a seating she quickly requested to be in the back momentarily. She didn't want to distract the students with her presence. Or so she thought she wouldn't distract them.

Around fifteen minutes later, the doors flew open and a boy appeared. He was wearing a ridiculous purple and white beanie in mid-August. The color of his outfit was black with similar colors of the beanie except he was covered in mud all over. The mud didn't stop him from being in a fantastic mood. "Good morning everyone!" Shouted the mysterious boy from behind and the whole class shouted back, "Good morning Michael!" It didn't take the teacher long to growl at the boy to take a seat. Was he custom to being disruptive all the time?

Precious thought to herself as she returned on reading her book when she heard someone whisper loudly, "Hi there! Youmustbenew. MynameisMichaelBirch! What'syourname?!" Hysterically slurred his words she couldn't understand. "GaAaAah!" "Oh...sorry I scared ya' like that child," Whispered the boy, "Please forgive me." "It's alright." Precious responded trying to cooly waved it off, "My name in Precious Jewel Stone. And I just came here from Johto region." "Welcome to Hoenn Precious. You've got a beautiful name by the way" Michael thought for a moment and realized her last name sounded so familiar. He hoped in leaving the girl alone so she'd go back to her work but she caught interest in him. "Thank you...may I ask why you came in so late?" "Well, I made this goal to myself of challenging at least six Gym Leaders this summer vacation before school starts but I forgot my PokéNav back at the Pokémon Center in Fortree City and had to retrieve it." "Why six? Why not four or five?" "Because Jewels...the sixth Gym is the feather badge and the HM move 'Fly' is activated. You know this school will teach about all that technical stuff that is useful," he smirked mysteriously, "Now I can travel anywhere around Hoenn at anytime."

The whole room stayed silent as if they every kid had been eavesdropping on the two. Michael patiently waited until he heard murmurs across the room. "Do you own any Pokémon Jewels?" "Um, not at the moment." "Would you like one? A starter one?" Precious was excited to hear what Michael was offering that she whisper shouted a bit too loud, "May I?! My daddy didn't let me have one because I was to young but I just turned ten so he can't say no!" She stared down at the table turning away from Michael, "And I'm always lonely with no one to play with." He eventually caught her gaze and looked at her straight in the eyes. She saw how clear his eyes were. Purple. Strange. "You know Jewels, I guess I could do something about that." Standing up from his chair, he got out, and left the classroom without the Professor saying anything.
