Adam wakes up early in the morning. Sleepily he gets out of bed, ready to go outside and do his farm chores, namely milking the Miltanks. He puts a green and black hoodie on, and then goes downstairs.
Adam yawns, and then begins to open the door.
"Why Adam," His Mom says. "aren't you going to go to the Professor's house to assist him and brink his family some milk?"
"Oh, yeah." Adam says sleepily, "I'll get right on it"
His mom watches him as he stumbles towards the front door. She cringes as he nearly trips over a chair.
Once Adam steps outside, he wakes up completely. The fresh air of Cottonwood town is very good for natural life. Adam strolls over to the professor's house.
Knock! Knock!
Adam steps back as the door opens.
"Are you the farmer boy? Argus… I mean professor Cottonwood would like to see you." Mrs. Cottonwood says cheerfully. Mrs. Cottonwood is a tall, skinny woman who as always cheerful. She has streaks of grey in her hair, and green eyes.
Adam smiles, and then steps inside the house. Mrs. Cottonwood leads Adam to the professor's office. Professor Cottonwood sits in a cushioned rocking chair. The professor has all grey hair, grey eyes, a pale skin tone, and bony fingers.
Adam walks closer to the professor and pulls up a chair.
"Hello professor." Adam begins. "How are you doing?"
Professor Cottonwood laughs, "I'm doing fine sonny. And by golly, you seem to have grown at least an inch since the last time I seen you. Sorry that I was not able to greet you. It appears that my age has caught up to me. Do you have the milk?"
"Right here," Adam says, placing three bottles on the professor's desk.
Just then, the office door opens, and a person that Adam has never seen before enters.
She has blonde hair, blue eyes, and is average height.
"Well, Adam, meet my granddaughter, Emma! Emma, this is Adam."
"Um… hi" Emma says softly.
"Hello," Adam responds.
They shake hands, and Professor Cottonwood smiles.
"Now I have a request for you two. I would like you to deliver this Pokémon to a boy two towns over. Okay?" the Professor asks.
Adam shrugs," Sure. But how are we going to get there? We don't have any Pokémon and there are wild Pokémon along the paths. You always remind me to not leave town without a Pokémon."
Professor Cottonwood grins," How would you like your very own Pokémon?"
"Really?" Emma asks. "Thank you grandpa!"
Professor Cottonwood pulls out a capsule from a desk drawer. He presses a button on the side, and the top of the capsule retracts.
"There are three Pokémon, Charmander the fire type, Squirtle the water type, and Bulbasaur the grass type. The decision is yours." The professor informs.
Emma grabs the Charmander ball, and Adam chooses Squirtle.
"The final Pokémon, Bulbasaur, is to go to Steve of Dwadely town. Enjoy your journey!"
Emma grabs Adam's arm," Come on! Let's go!"
Oh my, Adam thinks, I'm going on a journey with someone I haven't met, a hyper girl, and a Squirtle.
Emma leaps through the door, clearly excited about the journey. Adam smiles at the thought of leaving home.
