Alright so I don't own pokemon, but I wish I did. Enjoy! And you don't have to rate, but I LOVE reviews :D

Chapter One: Back in Unova

"Hello?" I answered the Xtransceiver groggily with a yawn.

"Aceline! I heard that you're in the region! Are you really in Unova?" I heard the excitement in Professor Juniper's voice just as well as see it in her expression on the screen.

I sighed. "Yeah I'm just reaching Nuvema town. I'll be at the lab in a second." I hung up on Juniper and walked into the town. It hadn't changed a lot in the ten years I had been away from it, but instead of four houses, there were only three. When I was six, my parents had moved us from Unova to Sinnoh and from there I had traveled all over different regions. Professor Juniper had given me my first pokémon, my Eevee, even though I technically hadn't been old enough to own a pokémon.

"Master?" chirped my Umbreon questionably. It was weird, but I could talk to pokémon even from a young age. I had become a singer in Sinnoh because my Umbreon had wanted me to.

"We're finally back home Umbreon. Let's hurry, Juniper is waiting and I haven't had breakfast yet." We walked to the lab in the northwestern area of the small town. It was super early in the morning, six o' clock to be exact and I was sure that I wasn't ready for Juniper's questions unless I had breakfast first.

I could have predicted it, but Professor Juniper was excitedly waiting for me outside her door. She hurried over to me and hugged me which Umbreon protested to. He didn't like unknown people being near me. "You've grown so much since the last time I saw you, Aceline! There's SO much to discuss…"

I held my palm out. " I can't think right until I've had breakfast." She laughed and led me and Umbreon inside her lab slash house. The left side of it was a lab and the right side of it was a house.

"I see your Eevee evolved. How many other pokémon do you have now, Aceline?" Juniper started cooking something for me that smelled roughly like cake.

"I have Umbreon, Espeon, Leafeon, Glaceon, Flareon, Jolteon, and Vaporeon with me. Umbreon doesn't have a pokéball, but I've nearly filled out my National Pokédex. All I have is the Unova region left." I sighed and sat down on the floor in the kitchen with Umbreon next to me.

"That's wonderful, Aceline! Well you're a famous singer throughout all of the regions aren't you?" Juniper brought me something that looked like banana bread. I nodded and broke a fourth of it off for Umbreon, who enjoyed it. Juniper then continued talking. "Well today I'm giving the three kids that live here pokémon. They each get one and I'm hoping to start them on a journey. They are each ten now and have been friends since they were toddlers. Sadly, your house burnt down shortly after you left so there's nothing in that spot anymore."

I nodded. "It's alright, I wasn't really planning on living here anyway. So what were you saying about the kids again?"

I noticed that Professor Juniper's eyes lit up when I mentioned the kids. "Well I got together with their mothers and we all decided to send them off on an adventure."

"Who are these kids exactly? I don't remember any other kids here besides myself." I gave the last eighth of my bread to the silent Umbreon and got up to wash my dishes.

"Well there's the boy, his name is Cheren. There's the tomboy, her name is Amelia. Then there's the other girl, her name is Bianca. The three families moved in shortly after you left. Cheren is really serious, Bianca is really carefree and Amelia is in between. I'm not surprised that you don't remember them, since they were five when you started on your own journey."

I finished washing my plate and I dried it. "Do you mind if I come along?"
Juniper took the plate and put it away. "You mean to deliver the pokémon? Actually can you deliver it to the center house? I really need to clean up before I have the three kids come over here."

I nodded and took the wrapped box off of her lab table. "Come on Umbreon." Umbreon trotted to my side and walked next to me as we left Juniper's house.

"So we have to deliver pokémon to kids? Are we Santa Claus now?" The sarcasm was clear in Umbreon's tone.

I laughed lightly. "No, I'm just helping the professor out. You want to know how you and I met? Professor Juniper had gotten you as an egg through her father who had gotten you through his travels. She gave you to me for my tenth birthday and you hatched a week later in Kanto."

"That's a very touching story Master, but aren't we here?" Umbreon sat down next to my feet and looked ahead.

I nodded and knocked lightly on the door in front of me. A woman with brunette hair opened the door and looked at me quizzically. "I'm Aceline. I'm helping the professor out. I was supposed to deliver these pokémon here."

The woman smiled and gestured for me to enter. I smiled back and entered her house with Umbreon. "Where should I put this?"

"Upstairs on the desk. Don't worry about noise, Amelia will sleep through anything." The woman looked from me to Umbreon as I quietly crept into Amelia's bedroom As soon as I saw her desk, I hurried over to it and gently placed the box onto it, remembering that there were precious pokémon in it. On my way back to the stairs, I tripped and fell on the floor. My eyes shot to the girl that stirred in the bed.

"Master, I can hear the girl snoring. You're clear." I sighed in relief at Umbreon's statement.

"Stop calling me Master, Umbreon. Just call me Ace," I whispered sternly as I got up and started to walk down the stairs.

Umbreon followed me and sighed. "I like calling you Master, so I'll call you Master." I groaned and rolled my eyes as we reached the bottom of the stairs.

The mother was busy cooking in the kitchen so I left quietly with Umbreon at my side. I felt the six pokéballs on my belt stir. "Not now guys. You can come out soon though." The pokéballs stopped stirring and Umbreon chuckled. I adjusted the straps on my pack tighter so that it would be more comfortable.

When I reentered Juniper's house, I saw my full reflection in one of her machines. I was the average height, five-foot-four and I was skinny as I only weighed ninety pounds. My hair was jet black, perfectly straight, and hip-length. I had chin-length side bangs and my part was on the left so that I was constantly blowing my bangs out of my right eye. My eyes were a deep crimson red and they were big and child-like, framed by long, thick, dark lashes. I had a heart-shaped face, but no widow's peak. I had high round cheekbones, a perfectly proportioned button nose, and a strong jawline that led to a rounded chin. My shoulders were slight and toned, leading into a strong, not thick neck. My complexion was a creamy pale, but wasn't striking against my hair. I wore a bright red, snug fitted cotton tee shirt, blue jean short shorts and white tennis shoes.

"It's a good thing that you're back now, Aceline. I need to run over to Striaton City really fast. Don't worry, I should be back before any of the kids get here, but if any of them do show up, direct them to Amelia's house. Thank you so much Aceline!" Before I could refuse, Professor Juniper darted out of the house and flew away on a flying pokémon.

I groaned and looked through the contacts on my Xtransceiver. I finally found someone and called them. "Natalie?"

The person on the other end was definitely Natalie except she had a tight, white, shiny hood on her head. "Aceline? I can't talk right now, I'm working. Give me the pokémon kid!" the Xtransceiver suddenly hung up and I raised an eyebrow, but shook it off as the door opened. I was expecting Juniper, but instead it was a boy who looked to be no older than ten. He had shaggy chin-length black hair, narrow blue eyes covered by glasses and he was as tall as me.

"Where's the professor?" I knew by the boy's voice who he was.

"She had to run an errand quickly. She'll be back soon." I did my best to seem friendly.

The boy's eyes lit up suddenly. "I know who you are! You're Ace! The young singer and almost National champion!"

I sighed. It was true, I beat every region's Elite Four after I toured there, but I didn't want to be known this well. "My name is Aceline. You must be Cheren, the professor told me about you and your friends." I held out my hand and Cheren shook it.

"How old are you anyway?" Cheren's voice told me that he was the kind of person that had to know it all.

I cleared my throat. "Well, Cheren. I'm fifteen and I have been instructed to tell you to go to Amelia's house." Cheren blushed and hurried out the door without saying goodbye.

"Well Umbreon, I can see why I should keep a low profile." I looked down at him to see that he was busy napping. I sighed and yawned. A nap didn't sound all that bad to me either. I sat in one of the chairs by the table and tried to doze off, but sleep wouldn't come.

I groaned as the pokéballs moved around some more. "Alright alright! Come on out guys." I threw my six mini pokéballs into the air. The balls grew larger and with a flash of white light, let my pokémon out.

Umbreon stretched and glared at me. "You just had to let them out now didn't you? Why'd you have to let out the kits too?" he looked over to the youngest and newest members of my team: Leafeon and Glaceon. The two rolled around on the floor and wrestled.

I giggled and looked to see Espeon flirting with Umbreon like usual, and Flareon and Jolteon arguing as Vaporeon tried to calm them down. "Guys, we are in a new region, actually, it's the region that I was born in. We're in Unova." All of them looked at me with their big eyes. Leafeon and Glaceon tilted their heads to the side in confusion.

"A new region, which means new gym battles and new enemies, right?" asked Espeon in a smart-alec tone.

I nodded. "I'm not sure about the enemies, but definitely new gym badges and a new Elite Four. This time though, I'm going to start from the very beginning so you guys will have to go into the PC. Is that okay?" I bit my lip hoping that they would be fine with that. All of them nodded and sat, waiting to be put back in their pokéballs. I sighed and threw up the six pokéballs into the air. Espeon, Jolteon, Vaporeon, Flareon, Glaceon, and Leafeon each returned to the comfort of their Luxury balls. I reattached the pokéballs to my belt and stood up.

"So let me guess, I'm not going to be fighting too much am I?" Umbreon stood up and shook out his fur. I nodded and was about to walk out of the door when professor Juniper walked back inside.

She grinned at me. "I told you that it would be quick." She motioned towards her kitchen. "I know you'll be leaving soon, so you should make a sandwich for lunch later." I smiled and nodded my thanks as I made my way to the kitchen. As I entered the kitchen, Juniper's front door opened and I heard a high squeal.

Someone ran at me and Umbreon growled and threw himself at whoever it was. I heard a couple of gasps and a surprised squeak and when I turned around I face-palmed. The girl I suspected to be Bianca had been tackled by Umbreon. "Umbreon, it's okay. It's just Bianca." Umbreon huffed and jumped off of the poor girl to stand behind me. I helped up Bianca and her eyes widened before she squealed again and began to jump in place.

"I finally get to meet you! You're my idol!" she took a deep breath and held out her hand. "I'm Bianca."

I laughed and shook her hand. "The professor told me about you and your friends. It's nice to meet you Bianca." I let go of her hand and looked at the professor. "I was actually born here, but I left for my journey and then my house burnt down. You all can just call me Ace." Bianca hurried back over beside Amelia and Cheren. Cheren looked at me, but as soon as I met his gaze, he blushed and looked away. Juniper then cleared her throat and began to talk to the kids. I sighed and went back to making my lunch. I made a salad and placed it into a portable container and placed it into my backpack along with a sandwich that was in a separate portable container.

"Aceline?" The professor placed a hand on my shoulder.

I turned to her after I zipped up my bag. "Yes professor?"

She led me back into the main room with the kids. "I know you have another journey to start too, but can you help the kids if they need it?" I smiled at her and she turned back to the kids. "Meet me on Route 1 and I'll show you how to catch a pokémon." She then left and I looked at the kids.

"You might want to let your parents know where you guys are going." I smiled at them and walked out of the door with Umbreon to see Amelia's mom.

She smiled at me. "Here, I have four town maps. Take one." She held it out to me and I smiled.

"Thank you." I looked at the ground, embarrassed that I didn't already have one.

She laughed. "You're welcome. I have some interesting news for you that I was just told." She cleared her throat as the other three kids walked out of Juniper's lab. "Aceline, I'm your Father's sister. I had no idea that you were the little niece my brother always bragged about, but your mother gave me a call just a little while ago."

Amelia's jaw dropped. "Does that mean that she's my cousin?"

I was just as shocked, but I kept my composure. "That wasn't what I expected, but it's good to know I have a home to come back to after all."

Amelia nudged me with her elbow. "You should travel around with me."

I nodded. "I will but first I have to return these little guys to a PC so that I can start a journey from the beginning." I patted Espeon's pokéball as I spoke.

"Do you always start exploring a region from the beginning like as in making it a first time thing?" Bianca's eyes lit up with curiosity. I nodded and smiled.

"I'll meet you three at Route 1 with Professor Juniper." I placed the town map in my bag and ran off towards Route 1. I sprayed Repel so that I wouldn't see any pokémon. I ran all the way to Acumula Town. I hurried to the PC and stored all six of the pokémon around my belt.

Umbreon smirked up at me. "I'm so glad that I don't have to go into one of those blasted pokéballs."

I grinned as we left Acumula Town. "Well as I said before, I don't like placing my friends in them, but I don't really have a choice. You were my first friend and you're my best friend, Umbreon. You get special privileges." Umbreon grinned back at me as we traced our way back to where Nuvema Town became Route 1.

Professor Juniper walked up to me with an egg that was violently shaking. "Aceline, take this!" My eyes widened and I took the egg, but as soon as it was in my hands, it hatched. I blinked when I saw the small black and red foxlike pokémon. She looked up at me and blinked as I placed her on the ground. I took out my pokédex and scanned the pokémon in the Unova region mode.

"Number seventy-six, Zorua the tricky fox pokémon of the dark type. To protect themselves from danger they hide their true identities by transforming into people and pokémon." I rolled my eyes and turned my pokédex to mute so that every time I scanned a pokémon, I didn't have to hear the annoying automated voice.

I knelt down in front of the little Zorua. "Hello Zorua. I'm Aceline and I'm your mommy." Zorua sat and looked around before she slowly walked to my outstretched hand. She sniffed it and her tail wagged. She then rubbed up against my hand and made a small cry, which I understood as "Mommy".

I stood up and smirked at Juniper. "You really like giving pokémon to people don't you?"

She smiled back at me as I threw the pieces of Zorua's eggshell into the tall grass. "Aceline, I enjoy bringing people and pokémon together. Have these pokéballs since you don't have any with you." She handed me six pokéballs and I knew one was for Zorua. I placed five of the pokéballs into my bag before enlarging one and placing it by the newly hatched Zorua.

I looked into her eyes with a soft authority. "Zorua, return." She cried and practically jumped into the pokéball. Once the ball closed, I picked it up and placed it on my belt. I noticed that my repel wore off and I looked at Juniper, who stood where she was and dropped a wink at me. I sighed and started to walk around in the tall grass with Umbreon at my side and a hand on Zorua's pokéball.

It was silent as I wandered the grassy area until a loud bark sounded and caused me to nearly jump out of my skin. Umbreon chuckled. "I like this one." I turned to my right where Umbreon had been looking to see a dog-like pokémon. I took out my pokédex and let it scan the pokémon silently before hastily placing it away once more. I was facing a Lillipup, a very common pokémon for children to own.

"Go, Zorua!" I threw Zorua's pokéball into the air and she was released, landing lightly on her paws. She let out an excited cry and the Lillipup barked back.

"Zorua use tackle!" I commanded. Zorua charged at the Lillipup and tackled him to the ground. The Lillipup leered at Zorua, causing her to shiver as her defense fell.

"Zorua, use tackle again!" I ordered as kindly as I could. Zorua nodded and tackled the Lillipup again, causing the poor thing to stagger out of sight and faint. I grinned and knelt by Zorua. "You did great and you even leveled up! I'm so proud of you." I pet the little pokémon's head.

I called Zorua back and Umbreon and I continued walking. "I still remember our first battle, Master. Do you?"

I looked down at the companion next to me and smiled. "Of course I do Umbreon. It was the same morning you hatched and our first meeting. I had no pokémon with me and while Gary went to get his uncle, you protected me from the wild Pidgey that attacked me. I won't ever forget it." As we kept walking we ran into another Lillipup.

"Come on out-" Before I could finish speaking and release Zorua, Zorua released herself practically.

She looked back at me. "I'm ready to battle."

I smiled and nodded. "Use tackle!" Zorua jumped at the Lillipup, but it dodged and tackled Zorua instead. Zorua growled and the Lillipup jumped off to leer back at Zorua. "Try using tackle again." Zorua let out a cry of frustration and tackled the Lillipup. Lillipup growled and I grinned.

"Use tackle once more, Zorua!" I cried, getting out an empty pokéball. I clicked the center button to enlarge the pokéball to prepare it for a catch. Zorua tackled the annoyed Lillipup and I threw a pokéball at it. It wiggled for a little bit before I heard the satisfied click. I picked up the pokéball and it returned to it's tiny size. "Welcome to the family Lillipup. Zorua, return!" Zorua returned to her pokéball and her ball was joined on my belt with Lillipup's.

"Ace!" Amelia jogged up behind me and she was flanked by Cheren and Bianca.

I turned to them and smirked. "So you guys take your first steps away from home together." Umbreon chuckled next to me.

"How many pokémon have you caught?" asked Bianca excitedly.

"I have Umbreon and two others, but I mostly trying to train my starter pokémon right now."

"What starter did you get?" There was a certain shine in Cheren's eyes almost as if he could predict my answer before I said it.

I smirked and winked. "You'll have to find out whenever we battle, but I'm not going to battle any of you guys right now because my starter pokémon hatched from an egg thirty minutes ago."

Amelia looked at Cheren and then at Bianca. "What about the contest?"

Bianca's eyes lit up. "I'm going to win Cheren!" She then dashed away in the direction of Acumula Town, almost as if to prove her point.

Cheren's eyes furrowed and he followed in the same direction. "We'll see about that," he murmured to himself, although I heard it.

I raised an eyebrow at Amelia once Cheren and Bianca were out of sight. "What's the contest?"

Amelia grinned. "Who can catch the most pokémon before getting to Acumula Town. We're meeting the professor there next."

I nodded. "Are you going to stick around me while I train?"

Amelia smiled. "My mom said I should spend as much time with you as I can since I've practically never met you before and you're my cousin."

"Well then I take that as a yes." I grinned at her when a sudden chattering noise caught my attention. I took out my pokédex and it scanned the pokémon, revealing it to be a Patrat. I put my pokédex away and tossed Zorua's ball into the air. "Let's go!"

Once Zorua appeared, Amelia gasped. "I've heard of these pokémon! You can almost never find them!"

"Zorua use tackle!" My command was obeyed well and it had been a critical hit, causing the Patrat to be in critical condition on the first hit. I took a pokéball and enlarged it before I threw it at the Patrat. The Patrat was too weak to fight against the pokéball and after wiggling only once, I heard it click and the ball shrunk again. I picked it up and placed it on my belt with Lillipup.

I held Zorua's ball open. "Come back, Zorua." Once Zorua returned and I placed her ball back on my belt, I turned to Amelia. "Can we go back to your house for a little bit? I need a break."

Amelia nodded. "Of course!" We made our way through the grass back to Nuvema town. "So why did you leave?"

I shrugged. "Well my father had wanted me to meet my mother, since they had split when I was really young. So I started my journey in the Kanto region instead of Unova."

Umbreon stretched. "Master, I'm hungry."

I looked down at Umbreon. "Are you serious?"

Amelia raised an eyebrow at me. "What?"

I groaned. "Umbreon is hungry again."

Her eyes widened. "How do you know that?"

"I can talk to pokémon-" I covered my mouth with both of my hands and closed my eyes. I cursed internally for being so careless.

"You can WHAT?" Amelia's shock and disbelief was plain in her tone although I couldn't see her expression.

I took a deep breath and opened my eyes. "Well, I can talk to pokémon."

Amelia's shock faded instantly and she grinned madly. "That is so cool!"

I laughed lightly. "I guess so, but sometimes it feels like a curse. Especially when I hear the pokémon that have been abused." I swallowed the knot in my throat. "Sometimes it's almost too painful to bear, but then Umbreon always helps me through it." I smiled down at Umbreon who looked away and muttered something like, "It's my duty."

I laughed as the three of us entered Amelia's house. "Are you guys back so soon or do you guys just need a break?" It was hard to believe that Amelia's mom was related to my dad.

I noticed stairs that led below the first floor and I raised an eyebrow at Amelia. "I didn't notice those stairs before. Where do they lead to?"

Amelia's mom grinned. "Amelia has a twin brother named Aidan. He left last night for his journey because he was too anxious to wait for Amelia's pokémon to get here."

Amelia's jaw dropped. "You mean Aidan was in on this too?" Before Amelia's mom could answer, Amelia's Xtransceiver rang. She answered it and on the screen I saw a boy that I automatically knew to be Aidan because of the striking resemblance.

"Hey Amelia, I heard room the Professor that you've started your journey?"

Amelia nodded. "Yeah and you won't believe who's here with me!"

Aidan chuckled. "Who would that be?"

"Aceline! You know the famous singer! What's cooler is that she's our cousin!" blurted Amelia with excitement.

I saw the shock on Aidan's face. "Wow, that's cool!" Aidan brushed off his shock quickly and smirked. "Well I'm kind of at work right now in Nacrene City. Once you get here we can battle."

Amelia grinned. "You're on, Aidan!" With a laugh, Aidan hung up the Xtransceiver and grinned at me. "Let's go chill in my room for a little bit. You can leave your pokémon down here, my mom will get them rested and healthy again."

I nodded and Umbreon lightly head butted my leg with a whine. "What about me? I'm hungry and tired!"

I laughed. "You can stay down here Umbreon, you'll be full before you know it." Umbreon shrugged and curled up near the table as I handed my pokéballs over to my Aunt.

"What did Umbreon say?" asked Amelia curiously as we walked up to her room.

I sighed. "He just wanted some food and a nap." Amelia nodded and sighed in relief when we reached her spotless room. I raised an eyebrow at her. "What?"

She laughed nervously. "Well when the three of us first chose our pokémon, Bianca challenged me to a battle and it wrecked the entire room. Then once I beat Bianca, I battled Cheren, knowing that he was smart enough to not ruin the room any more than it was." Amelia sat on her double bed as I looked more carefully around the room. She had a TV, a Wii, a bookshelf, and even a computer.

"So what starter did you choose?" I asked as I sat next to Amelia.

She grinned and tossed her pokéball into the air. "Come on out Snivy!" I pulled my pokédex out of my bag and let it scan the pokémon. Amelia snorted at my old and abused pokédex. "Once we meet up with the professor, we're getting you a new pokédex so you don't have to scan pokémon the old fashioned way."

I laughed and put my pokédex away. "So what time is it anyway? I'm getting a little anxious."

"It's almost nine in the morning. We got a big head start to the day, huh?" Snivy jumped into Amelia's lap silently and curled up.

"Aceline, your pokémon are fed and rested now if you're ready to head out again. Amelia I have a bagged lunch for you." Amelia's mom smiled at us from the staircase and I hadn't even heard her approach. We nodded and followed Amelia's mom downstairs as Amelia carried her Snivy. When we got downstairs, my Aunt handed me my three tiny pokéballs, which I placed back on my belt and Umbreon walked by my heels once more.

Amelia grabbed her lunch and hugged her mom before the two of us walked out of the house once again with our pokémon.

"Let the training begin," stated Umbreon as we headed into the grass.
