Hey, fanfiction! I'm Tehmudkipz13, and this is my first attempt at a fanfiction.
Disclaimer: I do not own pokemon, however much I wish I did
"Momma, I don't want to go." I say, clinging to Momma's leg.
She chuckles. "Silly girl, you have to go to school." She pats my hair. "Go make some friends."
I look around the school yard. Kids are playing all around the playground, but I don't see anyone I know already besides Ash and Gary.
I cling more. "But Momma, Ash and Gary already left me to go find their own friends! What do I do?"
"You go talk to a group of girls, that's what." She forces me off her leg. "Now go."
"But...they seem scary." I cower, then look up at her face.
I can see my face reflecting in her auburn eyes, tears at the brim of my own bronze ones. "Tally, you're a big girl. You can make your own friends without Gary or Ash."
I slump, and start to walk off. "I can try," I mutter. "That's the spirit!" Momma cheers.
I walk over to a couple of girls that Momma pointed out. "Um, hi, my name is Tally, can I hang out with you guys?" I ask nervously, knees knocking.
One of the girls turns around and I get a good view of her face. Pink hair in corkscrew curls, pink eyes in that bored look, and an upturned nose give her the "I don't like you" look.
"Did you hear something?" Pinky pie asks the other girl.
"Nope. You're hearing things again, Ursula." The other one flips one of her straight brown pigtails over her shoulder.
"I'm right here!" I say, waving.
"I must be." Pinky pie aka Ursula says, and turns around and ignores me.
"HEY! It's rude to exclude!" I cry, jumping up and down.
"Don't waste your breath. She's not worth your time." A voice says behind me.
I turn around and see four girls standing there, a brunette, a redhead, a bluenette, and a purple-hair. "That's Ursula for you. Doesn't care about anyone but herself." The brunette says.
"Oh. Good to know." I smile shyly.
"I'm May, and these are my friends." She holds out her hand. I shake it, and she smiles.
"I'm Dawn. Nice to meet you!" The bluenette waves.
"I'm Misty. Hi!" The redhead smiles.
"Iris." The purple-haired one bounces.
"I'm Tally. Nice to meet you all!" I try to give a warm, friendly smile, but inside I'm scared. What if they make fun of me?
"You wanna sit with us when class starts?" Iris asks me.
"Ummm...okay!"
"Hello class. My name is Miss Cynthia, and I'm going to be your kindergarten teacher." The blonde woman at the front of the room tells us. "I want each of you to stand up one at a time and tell us your name, your goal, and what you want your first pokemon to be. Lets start with..." She looks around the room. "...you." She points to Ash.
"Alright." Ash stands up. "My name is Ash Ketchum, I want to be a pokemon master, and I want my first pokemon to be a charmander. No, a bulbasaur. Wait, no, a squirtle. Wait..." He gets stopped by Miss Cynthia. "Okay, we get it. Please sit down. Next?"
Gary stands up. "My name is Gary Oak. My goal is to be better than my annoying cousin Ash, and my first pokemon will be Squirtle." Gary says then promptly sits down.
"Oh...Kay...moving on." Miss Cynthia then points to me. "You may go next."
I stand up. "Um, hi, I'm Tally, I don't have a goal, I have a destiny, and my first pokemon is going to hatch in several months."
"Do you know what it's going to hatch into?"
"No."
"Fair enough. And what do you mean by you have a destiny, not a goal?"
"What do you think I mean? I'm the Legendary Master!"
"So, you're gonna save the world some day?" May asks, swinging beside me.
"Yeah." I answer, trying to swing higher than all my friends.
"What do you think the Natural is gonna look like?" Dawn giggles.
"The Natural?" Iris looks really confused.
"Dontcha know, the one she's destined to fall in love with! Legend says he's the son of the destroyer!" Misty laughs.
"S-son of the destroyer?!" Iris turns pale, a huge feat for the very tan girl.
"Yeah. It's kinda like forbidden love..." Dawn has a dreamy look on her face.
"If you want to think of it that way...I'm never gonna fall in love!" I make a face. They all laugh.
"What are you idiots laughing at?" A sickeningly familiar voice sneers.
"Ursula." May grits her teeth.
"The one and only!" The corkscrew curled head laughs.
"What do you want?" Dawn snaps.
"Simple. We have to make sure this girl goes through initiation." Her brunette friend snickers.
My friends all turn pale. "Y-you can't do that!" Iris squeaks.
"Can and will." Ursula just continues with that stupid smirk on her face.
Two boys, one with silver hair and one with purple, come up behind Ursula and her friend.
"Run out of mean things to do to Melody, huh?" The purple haired one asks.
"Oh look, it's Paul and Trip." Ursula sneers.
"And Ursula does not say mean things to me!" The brunette-I assumed her name was Melody-huffed.
"She does." The silver haired one snickers.
"Go away, Trip." You could see the vein on her forehead.
"Psst, Tally! Let's get out of here while we can!" Misty whispers in my ear.
"Right!" I whisper back to her.
"Man, today was so cool! I made so many friends! Drew, and Kenny, and Cilan, and Brock too!" Ash exclaims.
Gary laughs. "You always hung with the losers, Ashy-boy."
"Uh, Gary?" I sweatdrop.
"Yeah?" He looks over at me.
"You were hanging out with them, too." I point out.
"...Right." He scratches the back of his head.
"What about you, Tally? Did you make friends?" Ash asks me.
"Yep!" I smile.
"Oh yeah, you were hanging with Misty, May, Dawn, and Iris." Gary says.
"And there were also these two boys who got Ursula and Melody to stop picking on us." I start thinking about that.
"What were their names?" Ash asks.
"Paul and Trip, I think." They pale.
"Tally, those two are bullies themselves. How could they stand up for you?" Gary points out.
"If they don't like me, they would definitely hate you." Ash says.
"Huh. I'll have to ask why they did that." I say, mission set for tomorrow.
"Hey, Tally!" Dawn waves to me the next day in front of the school.
"Hey, Dawn. Have you seen Paul and Trip? I need to ask them something." I look around the schoolyard.
"Why would you look for them?" May asks.
"I have to ask them a question about yesterday."
"They're over there," Misty points to a bench, and just like she said they're sitting there.
"Thanks!" I bounce over to them.
"Hey, you're Paul and Trip, right?" I ask them.
"I'm Trip, he's Paul." The silver haired one says.
"Ah. I'm Tally." I smile. Trip returns it, while Paul looks indifferent.
"So why'd you come over here?" Trip asks, being more friendly than Paul.
"I had a question about yesterday. Why'd you two defend me and my friends against Ursula and Melody?" I ask them.
"Well, I don't like the dastardly duo, aka Ursula and Melody. And why he helped me I don't know. He usually sides with the dastardly duo." Trip says. "Maybe...Paul had a thing for one of you guys and wanted to look cool?"
Paul turns red. "What the-where'd you get that?"
Trip chuckles. "You're turning red. It's obviously true. Let's see...is it Dawn?"
"No."
"May?"
"No."
"Misty?"
"No."
"Iris?"
"No."
Trip scratches his head. "Who else could it be?"
"Maybe...someone else who was watching?" I pipe up.
"You may be onto something..." Trip smirks.
"Oh dear egg of Arceus. TRIP!" Paul is seriously red-faced.
Said boy just laughs. "I'm not gonna get any answers out of him now. But I will later. I'll tell you when that happens, okay?" I nod, and skip off to my friends again.
It's been two months since I started school. I've adjusted well. Misty, May, Dawn, Iris and I all get along really well. Ash has his friends now, but that doesn't stop us from all having play dates at our house. And me and my friends hitting them with water balloons.
Trip was still trying to get an answer out of Paul I guess, cuz I hadn't heard anything. But the two of them eventually became good friends of mine, and they often got rid of Ursula and Melody.
Schoolwork was easy, and Miss Cynthia was the coolest teacher I might ever have. All was going well...
Until N came.
