Chapter 1: Meeting someone special

It was a stormy day in Azelea Town. Riley took tiny steps as she dragged her heavy backpack along the ground. She and her partner, ariados, had been running from a flock of angry skarmory for the past hour. Her whole body was dirty and tired. She knew ariados wasn't felling any better than her right now. She knew she needed to find shelter, fast. She led ariados to the town's Pokémon center as fast as she could. She would have just called him back inside his pokeball but ariados refused to ever be inside one. They were loyal partners, equal to each other. Neither one ever thought that they were better than the other. Ariados and her other Pokémon were the only family Riley ever had.

Riley led ariados inside the Pokémon center and handed him over to the nurse. She also gave her her other two Pokémon, crobat and vaporeon. She thanked the nurse and said goodbye to ariados and the others. She headed off to the room where she would be staying for the night. She started to think about the long shower she would be taking and wasn't watching where she was going. She rammed into something or someone and went down hard. As her head hit the ground, her yellow stocking cap fell off, revealing her wild, spikey, long, light purple hair. She looked up, dazed. There stood a tall, slender guy with the most beautiful black hair Riley had ever seen. He looked like he was crazed, all wound up and ready for action, but sad deep down.

"I'm really sorry, I hope you're alright," he stuttered and rushed off. Riley's head hurt but she didn't care. She couldn't stop thinking about his dark, deep brown eyes, and she didn't even know anything about him. Riley realized she had been on the ground for a couple of minutes and got up. She picked up her cap and rushed to her room. She headed for the shower with many thoughts in her mind.

Riley woke up in the morning felling refreshed. She hurried downstairs to go pick up her Pokémon. They all seemed good as new. She returned crobat and vaporeon to their pokeballs and put them in her backpack. Ariados was acting like himself again, speedy and arrogant. He scurried out the door and she followed as quickly as she could. As soon as she was outside she froze. There sitting on the front step was the guy, there was no mistaking it. Riley didn't know what to do. Should she say hello? Would he even know who she was? She didn't need an answer. Ariados was poking the guy as if to say, "You're in my way" and the guy turned around and met his gaze. He stood up and out of the Pokémon's way. The guy shook his head and saw Riley. He stared her up and down and she didn't move a muscle. She was frozen with… something. She wasn't really sure what this emotion was. The guy stumbled over to her and held out a hand. Riley unfroze and gladly accepted it.

"Hi, I'm Ren"

Ren and Riley stood there, introducing themselves as ariados grew very impatient. He tapped and poked at Riley's legs. This was the first time she had ever ignored him. The longer Riley talked to Ren, the more she fell in love with everything about him. To him she was almost a complete stranger. To Riley, this guy was perfect.

"I'm from Cinawood city, lived there my whole life. My mom runs a produce market down there, she wanted me to take over the business but I knew I couldn't stay there forever so I started my Pokémon journey. I have been out here on my own ever since I was 11. I just turned 19 a couple of weeks ago. My partner and I have been together since the beginning," Ren said. Riley listened to everything he had to say very carefully. She really cared about what he was saying. Riley told him about how she had started her journey 3 years ago and how ariados was a gift from her best friend who moved away a couple days later and how she couldn't imagine her life without ariados. Ariados felt proud to hear her say that and puffed out his chin a little bit.

"I'm really sorry I ran into you yesterday. My partner was sick and was with the nurse. The nurse called me to say that she was feeling better and I ran down there as fast as I could. I was so happy she was okay," he said gleefully.

"I completely understand! I would be a nervous wreck if ariados was sick!" Riley bent down to scratch ariados' head but he didn't even seem to notice. He was still thinking about when Ren said his partner was a girl. Ariados wondered what kind of Pokémon Ren's partner was, and of course, if she was pretty.

"Your ariados seems to have a lot of personality!" Ren chuckled as the words came out of his mouth, "I wonder if he would get along with my partner?" Ren threw a pokeball up into the air and out popped a gorgeous azumarill.

"I call her Ripple, Ripey for short," Ren cooed. Ariados went up to her and poked her, like he did to everything else. She made a little noise and then started to blush. Ariados was probably the happiest Pokémon alive. He poked her again and started to run away. This little movement started the game of tag. Ripple leaped into the air and dashed after ariados. Riley and ariados could tell she wasn't one to take a game very lightly. Riley stared at the Pokémon with glee as Ren continued to talk. For the first time she found herself not listening to Ren because the Pokémon were having so much fun, it was hard for her to take her eyes off them. She stared for a couple more minutes until Ren said something that almost made her fall over, "… my girlfriend…" WHAT! Riley thought to herself, "But he's mine!" Riley needed answers… NOW!

"So, umm, what's your girlfriend's name?" Riley intrupted.

"Whitney, she's the gym leader of the Goldenrod City gym. She is amazing! We have been dating for a while. I look up to her so much! She is so strong!" He got so fangirly when talking about her. He seemed like such a man until now, but in some way she almost seemed to like him more with a girly side. Ariados came back to her and poked her. She could tell he was ready to get moving.

"So where are you headed to next, we were actually on our way to go challenge Whitney. Well I should say beat her cause I know we're gonna win. Right ariados?"

"Airie!"

"Well I was on my way to visit her as well! We can go together!" Great… Riley was thinking. Why don't I just listen to you talk about how great your girlfriend is for two days! The walk to Goldenrod would take a while… Riley didn't know how she was going to get through this.

"Well we better get moving then if we wanna get there by noon."

"What do you mean? It will take days to get there! Do you plan on teleporting or something?" Ren laughed at this.

"No silly! I'll let you fly with me!" Ren threw another pokeball into the air and a giant crobat popped out. He was huge!

"This is Dizzy, he's my crobat," Ren said.

"He's so cool! I have a crobat too! I call him Shu. He's a lot smaller than Dizzy though. I'll send him out so they can meet!" Riley threw her pokeball into the air and out came Shu. Ariados walked over to him and they chattered. Dizzy flew over too and stuck out his wing. Ariados took it and so did Shu. Ripey came over too and they all looked like they were hitting it off with each other. Great, thought Riley. Mabey if our pokemon become best friends he'll have to stay with me for a while.

"Well we should get going! Come on Dizzy!" Ren returned Ripey to her pokeball and climbed on Dizzy. Riley returned Shu to his pokeball and placed ariados on her head. Ren looked at them weird but went back to piloting Dizzy. Ren took Riley's hand and helped her onto the pokemon. Riley totally freaked. HE TOUCHED ME! And on that note they were off to meet Whitney. Riley didn't know what she was going to do when she got there. She only hoped she would figure it out soon and hopefully not make a fool of herself in front of Ren. Man, how she would give anything to be with this guy.
