The Shy Hero: Kalos

Chapter one

Professor Sicomo?

Hey there guys! Sorry for not posting a lot, I've been attempting to get permission from some people to use them in a future fic, which I was planning on writing soon. I need their permission to put them in, and sense a few of them are big characters, I seriously need their permission. I guess I kind of forgot about typing this, so yeah... Hehe... Well, I'm hoping that this will continue on as a series eventually, maybe taking the five to a different region. Also on a side note, my soccer season started up, as well as school starting in a few weeks. I'm going to spend as much time as I can typing, building up on chapters, and type whenever I can during school. But I'm hoping by then I'll have a decent amount of chapters stocked up. So if any of you leave comments with recommendations that don't get used, or are used just later on, I apologize. Well that's enough junkabajumbo from me. Enjoy, Chapter one of "The Shy Hero: Kalos"!

Calem took a sip of his coffee, relishing its taste. Just the right amount of sugar. These cafés in Aquacourde town knew how to make a good coffee. Hearing footsteps, he looked behind him, seeing two people right behind him. He looked back the way they came, seeing a table with two others. The four were a group of friends; two lived in Vanville along with him, one, the orange haired one, lived in Lumiose city. The, er, bigger one he had no clue. He just sort of appeared. The two in Vanville were two girls, almost opposites of each other. The four had been trying to get him to join their group. To tell the truth he would have been happy, having some friends. But he was too closed up, too shy.

The two behind him was Shauna, a girl that seemed to love pink, and adored anything cute. She had brown hair, and was hyper, loud, cherry, and downright persistent from what he could pick up, but had a good heart. She was wearing a pink cut-off shirt that had three black bows going down the front. She had her hair in two pigtails going down the sides of her head. She was wearing short jeans, which were frayed at the bottom

The other was the short orange haired one. He liked that one, he was quite, calm, and more logical than the rest. From what he heard, his name was Trevor. He was wearing a green t-shirt and had on khaki jeans.

The other two at the table was Tierno, the bigger one. Tierno was a bit on the loud side. He seemed to love dancing, and anything that had to do with dancing. Tierno had a black t-shirt with a Vanillite on, along with some orange shorts.

The last one was Serena Yelatair. Only reason he knew her last name was that she was his neighbor, so of course he knew her. She was calm, collected, but wouldn't pass up the chance to play a prank. She seemed like a lady half the time, then the other half she seemed like a prankster. She had on a Black top, along with a red skirt. She also had a hat on her head, along with a dark pair of sunglasses.

"Hello~!" Shauna gave him a wide smile, bouncing on her feet. As usual, he responded with a slight nod. "You seem lonely over here, why don't you come over here with us?"

"No thanks." His voice, even to him, came out as bland, emotionless. Shauna frowned, puffing up her cheeks. Before she could talk, Trevor interrupted.

"Uh... What s-she's trying to say was that you seem lonely. If you want, you could come over with us." Calem shook his head.

"I'm fine." Trevor nodded, accepting his answer before grabbing Shauna's arm and pulling her back to their table. The two seemed to tell the others wait happened, cause all four looked over at him a moment later. Ignoring the four, Calem finished his coffee, placing the cup down. He pulled his wallet out of his pocket, wincing at it, before placing a tip down. The wallet was his last gift from his father. He quickly shoved his wallet back in his pocket and stood up. His wallet was blue, just like the rest of him.

Calem had a blue undershirt, but that didn't see much sunlight beneath his jacket. His jacket was the same shade of blue with white stripes running down his arms and front. He had dark blue jeans, with black boots hiding the bottoms of them. His black hair was hidden underneath a red hat. His black hair was long in the back, falling down onto his neck. Resting on the top of his hat was a pair of black sunglasses. He grabbed his bag and slung it over his neck. The bag was the same shade of blue as his jacket. His eyes, as he was told, were stormy blue.

Calem turned away from the table, straightening his jacket as he walked. He walked by the group of four on his way out of the outside dining area. As he walked he noticed Serena watching him out of the corner of her eye. He nodded at the group as he walked by. He turned north and walked towards the north exit. That exit had a short route that lead to his quaint little new home, Vanville town.

About two months ago he had moved to Vanville town along with his mother. His mother had been told that there were a lot of Rhyhorn races in Kalos, so in a matter of an hour, she had tickets to Kalos, along with a moving van ready to go. He barely had time to say goodbye to his friends in NewBark town. Before Vanville, they had lived in NewBark town, Johto. His mother was the world famous Rhyhorn racer Grace Xavier. Speaking of his parents, no one knew what had happened to his father, Brian Xavier. He went on a business trip to the Kanto region. Went missing during the trip. A lot of ideas popped up of what happened, but the one he believed the most was that the famed Team Rocket snagged him. His father was a well-known scientist, and along with him missing, a lot of other scientists were taken by Team Rocket around the same time, so it made sense. That was a year ago. His... accident was only a month before they moved.

Calem stepped out of Aquacourde town, continuing his walk onto route one. The route was really short; he could already see Vanville off in the distance. He picked up his pace, determined to get ahead of his past, not wanting to remember it.

"Hey Calem, wait up!" Calem sighed, but stopped anyway. He turned slightly to look behind him. Behind him was the whole group. Shauna waved, smiling. Obviously it was her who shouted. He put his hands in his jacket pockets and turned completely, waiting for them. Once they reached him he got a series of hellos from the group.

"Hey, what is it? I need to get home soon." Three of the four looked at Serena. She gave him a slight smile.

"Something big is going to happen tomorrow. The five of us have been chosen by the esteemed professor Sycamore. None of us knows what it's about, Trevor and Tierno are going to tell us tomorrow. Hope you can make it." Calem looked at all of them. Trevor had a worried expression on his face. Tierno looked like he didn't even care. Serena seemed hopeful, but only slightly. Shauna however, had a pouty face on.

"Pleeeassseee?" Calem sighed and shrugged.

"Maybe." Knowing that was probably all that they were going to get out of him, they backed off. Serena tilted her head slightly sand smiled again.

"Well then see you tomorrow neighbor." She stuck her hand out to him. Calem hesitated before slowly shaking her hand. Calem nodded at the four before turning away and started walking again. He heard Serena speak behind him. "See you guys. He isn't a complete robot."

Calem ignored what she said, not caring. So what if they though he was a robot? He soon reached the entrance to Vanville town. He walked down the street to the left of the entrance, nodding to Serena's mother as he walked by their house and walked up to his house. Calem kneeled down to a Rhyhorn in his front yard, rubbing it's head. "Hey they Rider." Rider snored in reply, going back to his nap. Calem gave a slight smile and walked into his house.

"Cal, that you?" Calem sighed, he hated that nickname.

"Yes mom, it's me." A woman, more specifically his mother, walked out of the kitchen. She was wearing a dark grey t-shirt along with a skirt that was puffy around her waist.

"So, how was your walk?" Calem shrugged before taking his shoes off and leaving them by the front door. His mom hated when mud got on her carpet.

"Same as always." Calem was quite for a moment. "So, something came up today. That group of kids said that someone named professor Sicomo or something. He had a request for the five of us. I'm supposed to meet with the others about it tomorrow." Calem's mother smiled.

"That sounds great! You should go." Calem looked down at his feet.

"Maybe." He walked to the stairs and went upstairs. HE opened a door with a blue star on it and went in.

His room wasn't anything special, at least not to him. Up against the back wall was a blue bed, on it was an Eevee plush doll, don't judge, he still slept with stuffed animals. Beside his bed was a small desk with a simple little desk lamp. In the corner, however, was his acoustic guitar. Not many new, but he loved to play his guitar. He's taken countless lessons, and what his teachers have told him, became somewhat of a master at it. Back in Johto, he had weekly concerts where his friends and family, sometimes neighbors would come. He played at half-time shows for school sports. It wasn't like he aimed to go pro or to be musician, he was just good at it, and liked it.

A bookshelf was next to it. He actually had two, one near his guitar, and the other on the opposite side of the room. The first was full of his music he made or practiced. The second was full of actual books. He had a round window on the side with the bookshelf. The window jutted out of the house, so he would sometimes sit there and play. He often played songs he finds online, like YouTube made songs. Eh, he was going tomorrow anyway. He always got there before the others so maybe he'll bring his guitar. Play one of his favorites.

Above his bed was a wall mounted clock. 7:30. Eh, might as well turn in early. HE changed int his pajama's, a pair of striped blue and white shirt and pants. He crawled underneath his blue cover, the Eevee plush next to him. He closed his eyes and fell asleep instantly.

A crash...sirens were everywhere...He was on his back, being moved. Voices were everywhere but... Where... where was Jenny? Where was his sister? A face appeared over his, a man in white. He smiled down at him. He said something, but he couldn't hear. "Je...nny..." He closed his eyes, saying that one word draining All his energy. AS he went under, he managed to hear one thing.

"Sorry kid, she's gone. But you'll be fine. You lucky, poor poor kid."

... SOooooooooo... That was fun! Pokemon XY is my all-time favorite game, screw ORAS! Just kidding. ORAS is cool, but I still prefer XY. SO what do you all think of this story. And yes, I am going to have Calem perform later. I have a song I think. It's by the you tuber NATEWANTSTOBATTLE. Won't say what song yet though. Well, I hope you all enjoyed episode one of THE SHY HERO:KALOS And this series will be a long one, I hope.
