"Hey son! I have some interesting news for ya!" Tim's father, Paul, boomed up the old, wooden stairs.
"I'm not in the mood, leave me alone!" came the twelve year-old's frustrated reply. Tim rarely got into angry fits but when he did, dangerous was hardly the way to describe him.
Paul huffed and puffed (he was quite a heavy smoker) then cried out again to the sulky child, "Timothy! It's about yar favourite Pokémon… Articuno!" He grinned as the door opened and the boy charged down the stairs, almost straight into him.
"What is it? What's the news? Is it bad? Is it good? Tell me!" the son frantically exclaimed.
Paul hesitated for a few seconds, "Well… Articuno's come o'er from its island an' has landed in the icy mountains nearby. No scientist can think of a reason why, but I think it's come to greet a new trainer so it can give them its blessin'"
"That trainer could be me!" lightening up, Tim trotted back up to his room and excitably began packing all the things he'd need on his journey. His father entered the room and told him to hold out his hand. When Tim did this he placed a Pokéball containing Flareon into his palm.
"Treat Chilli well, alright? He's a good chap. Make sure to get 'im some new friends on the way. I'll tell yar mother you've set out on yar journey. Be careful, my boy," Paul crouched down and stared into the child's young, innocent brown eyes as he nods slowly thinking about his adventures to come, "Oh, and here's a Pokéball with a snowflake design in case ya come across a Glaceon 'cause I know ya love 'em!"
Meanwhile, our other friend (or character) had also been in a strop before hearing the news of Articuno moving from a passing trainer. However, this person was a lot different because one she was a girl and she was a small ball of brown fluff with bark-coloured eyes – an Eevee. She lived alone in the woods and usually got bullied by the other Eevees that lived there. Her dream was to become a beautiful Glaceon, meet Articuno, roam the mountains and become the queen of them. If that didn't work she promised herself that she would meet a pretty girl and become her pampered pet.
Except that was all just her dream – she had no idea what the future had in store for her. Life was tough and life is tough… Eevee understood that completely.
Dear readers,
This is the opening to the story, I admit it wasn't the best but I was trying to not to just launch straight into the story and end it in just one very short chapter. Hope you enjoyed. Please leave a review if you wouldn't mind since it'll help me quite a bit. Thanks!
Sincerely, CJLion
