Chapter 1- Plans

Narrator- Welcome to the region of Sinnoh, a land filled with the strange and mysterious creatures known as Pokemon. Pokemon reside everywhere across the globe from the land and sea, to the skies and depths of the earth. Within this world lies the small town of Twin Leaf, where many legends have come and gone in the past, but today we find a young man named Jason at home with his parents. Jason will be 15 in only a couple days and is eager to become a Pokemon Trainer. But before that can happen, he needs to run errands.

First Person

"Jason, can you come down here", said my mom calling up to my room.

"Coming mom", I said in response to her call.

Walking down the stairs I came into the family room to be greeted by my mother who was already going about her daily business.

"So, how are you today, you look like you just came out of a coma" She said with a large smirk.

"Ha-ha, very funny" I said with high amounts of sarcasm. "What is it that you want me to do?"

"Does there always have to be something that I want you to do" She exclaimed with confusion. "Can't I call you down without wanting something?"

"Yeah you can, but I know you too well" I said with a smug look on my face.

With a sigh of dismay, she said: "What gave me away?"

"The sheer fact you called me down in the first place was one thing, but not abnormal. What gave you away was how eager you were to greet me."

"Do you really think I am that easy to read?" She said with a low tone.

"Yeah, you kind of are. Either way, what is it you want me to do?"

"Could you run to the store and buy some supplies for the Party on Friday? I want you to choose so it is mainly your input on the party." She said with a smile.

"Oh, if that is all I would be happy to go, I have been thinking about the party and have a couple ideas for decorations." I said with a smile.

She gave me a nod of approval and handed me a list, "Can you get these supplies, just the basics like cups, utensils and plates. You can choose which ones you like while you are there if you would like."

I took the list and headed for the door, "See you in a little mom" I said waving to her.

"Have fun and stay out of trouble" she said jokingly.

"Very funny mom, but I will be careful". Then I left.

3rd person

Jason left the house and started off towards the store. Twin Leaf is a quaint little town, not too big not too small. With a population of only about one hundred, it is very reserved and often doesn't get many visitors.

As Jason walked he heard someone familiar approaching from behind.

"Jason, wait up" A voice called from the distance.

Jason turned around to see his best friend Kate running towards him.

"Thank goodness you stopped, I am out of breath" she said totally exhausted.

"What's with such the hurry Kate?" Jason exclaimed with moderate confusion.

"Well silly, if you would let me catch my breath for a second we can walk together" she said still a bit tired.

"Ok, I can wait." Jason said with a caring smile.

Kate and I have been friends for as long as I can remember. Around the time I was five, my family moved out here seeking a more peaceful environment. When we moved in I was quickly introduced to my neighbor Kate and her family. She is very sweet and to be honest, I have a bit of a crush on her, but I don't want her to know that. To be honest, the party on Friday is for both of us, mainly because the two if us share a birthday almost. Mine is actually Thursday and hers is on Saturday. Since we are such good friends we often meet in the middle and combine our parties, but this year was different. This year was the year we would become pokemon trainers and set off on our journeys. Her and I are planning to travel together and explore the world and all its mysteries.

Judging by her bag she was carrying, she was also out for errands for her family, I wonder if it is for the party?

"You ok now?" Jason said with concern.

With a quick, deep breath, "Yeah I'm fine".

"Good, want to walk to the store with me, I am getting party supplies?" Jason asked.

"Well that is convenient that you are heading to the store, I am also going for party supplies. HEY, we can shop for supplies together, AH this will be FUN!" Kate exclaimed with pure excitement.

The idea sounded actually quite good to Jason, it beats being alone and doing their party supplies together would be awfully helpful in the long haul.

"Sure, that sounds great, you want to start walking?" Jason said.

With a beam of Joy and a sparkle in her eyes she said "YAY, let's go".

We travelled down the streets of Twin Leaf, gazing and watching for wild pokemon that sometimes find their way into the town. We spotted an Eevee that came out of a bush next to a house and approached it. It seemed friendly when we approached it.

Jason crouched down and put out his hand facing down so that the eevee could approach. "There there, I mean no harm"

The eevee came close and sniffed his hand. After it did it rubbed its head against Jason's hand.

"Ah, now that's a good eevee" Jason said with compassion.

Kate was a little jealous at seeing this and crouched down to pet the eevee as well. The eevee walked over to Kate and proceeded to let her pet it. Kate seemed very happy in that moment.

I thought of the journey ahead of us and thought of all the pokemon we would meet along the way. We would make so many new friends, both of us, together.

"Hey" Jason said in a low tone, "Do you think it will be like this on our journey?"

Kate smiled "Of course it will, I hope we make lots of new friends and meet all sorts of new pokemon."

Standing up, Jason looked down at Kate, "Should we head out now, we should get to the store so we can get supplies."

Kate stood up, "Yeah, your right, we should head out."

Kate looked back at the eevee who was still looking at the two, "Goodbye for now little guy, maybe we will meet again."

The Two walked off away from the eevee and continued on their way to the store.

After a bit longer the two came to the store. The store was one of the best places to go in Kates mind, not only for food, but clothes to. Jason liked stores as well, but not as much as Kate did. Kate got distracted quite a lot while inside, constantly dragging me around to look at stuff she found. Most would be annoyed with her, but I like it. I like just being with her, it did not matter where or what was happening, as long as she was there, I was happy. We eventually got around to the supplies and purchased our favorite decorations. We exited the store and began walking back towards our houses.

Kate looked to me with her hands behind her back, "So, are you excited for our journey?"

"Totally, especially because you will be there" Jason said with a smile.

At that moment I saw her blush and become a bit flustered.

"I know, it was a bit cheesy in my head" Jason said with embarrassment.

"No, it is fine, just caught me a bit off guard" Kate said with moderate embarrassment.

We walked home and continued to talk, the day was getting late and was coming to and end. We reached my house and we exchanged our goodbyes.

"See you tomorrow Kate" Jason said.

"Of course you will, talk to you later" Kate said winking at Jason.

With that Kate walked off and went to her house. I went inside and went on with my night. I had a nice dinner and then after a while went off to bed. I thought a lot at night, it was the one time I had alone to myself.

I wondered about the future, and what our journey had for us, but then a thought occurred to me. What will I get her as a gift? I want this day to be special for her, maybe I can find something special for her tomorrow. I guess that be hard if we see each other, but I would make it work.

With that I drifted off to sleep for the night and would find a gift for her in the morning. I fell asleep thinking of her that night.
