Dirty Theif, Professor Boy

Chapter 1

Charamander

I stood leaning against the wall waiting; Professor Elm rubbing his head, looking slightly nervous of me. I blinked -my fringe covered most of my face- as I waited for him to speak.
"Don't worry Mizuki, I'm sure he will be here any second with your Pokémon,"
"He better be. My brother was sending him over from the Kanto region," I grumbled.
"So how come you've waited this long to finally set off?" The Professor asked me. I frowned, looking up; my fringe parted, show casing my icy blue eyes. Said eyes instantly locked on him.
"I don't know. But Ladd and I think it's about time to leave, you know, to see the world," I smiled. A small dog was laid besides my bare feet. He was a Lillipup that was not from the Unova region at all, and thus in Johto, a rarity. He's practically my baby doggie though as he and I go quite far back. Ladd is pretty much bound to me.
The door pushed up; Ladd jumping to his paws growling. With a disapproving frown at the figure before me, I scooped Ladd up in my arms, patting him. A tall 16 year old stood in the doorway, his brown hair spiky and eyes green. I couldn't help but stare at him, lust in my eyes. But you'd understand if you saw him. One word; HOT!
I smiled slightly, not feeling any guilt with the way my thoughts had turned so sultry already.
"Hia Gary. Did he send my pokemon over?"
"Yes he did, but sort of no as well. How was your journey?"
"No? Why are you here Gary?" I asked him softly cutting him off. I held out my hand, making the classic 'hand it over' gesture; he dug into his pocket before he pulled a white and red ball out, placing it in my grip. Professor Elm cleared his throat, gathering our attention.
"Well Gary was sent to come study our pokèmon, the ones that are native to our region,"
"Ok. And he's tagging along with me why?"
"I don't know the area as well as you," he answered, with a gorgeous smile. "Your brother wants me to keep an eye on you to-where are your shoes?" And apparently, he had a problem staying on topic.
"Oh. I don't where them. I find them too uncomfortable, though I have them in my bag though just in case," I said. Ladd barked and nudged the ball from my grip. A red light shot out and an orange coloured lizard with a flaming tail hopped onto the floor. She had cute little fringe, with a collar around her neck. Said collar jiggled as she waddled over to me. I bent down to get a closer look.
"Hello little one," I smiled, patting her head as the Charmander returned with a toothy grin.
"Char-Char"
I un-tied her collar and looked at it. Cherry
"Ladd come meet your new team mate" I half-heartedly ordered. My Lillipup walked over, sniffing the fire lizard who sniffed back with just as much enthusiasm. Both looked up at me and then at each other before snarling. Ladd stood in front of me protectively; I smiled and stroked his head, "Its ok Ladd we're gonna be a team. Get used to it."
"Ok Mizuki, take this and these, you can buy more pokeballs at any pokemart" The professor said.
I nodded, accepting the balls and attached them to my belt, then taking the red device.
"This is a pokedex it records any information about any pokèmon you meet,"
"Ok gotcha,"
"If you head out now you should be able to get to Catallia City just before it gets dark,"
"Ok thank you very much Professor," I said before turning on heel and walked out with Cherry and Ladd running behind me, pushing to get to by my side. Gary sighed and bid farewell to Elm before he followed me out.

Gary and I walked in the silence; only forest noises seem to occur, time seemed not to be running at all as we walked along the dirt track, dust flying up after stepping on it; my feet brown from the filth.
Gary finally cracked.
"Why didn't you take a pokèmon starter from this region?"
"Because I love Charmander far more than these ones, what starter do you have?"
"I started with a Squirtle...wanna battle?" He smirked.
"Ok then Mr. Oak," I smiled.
He nodded pulling out a pokèball and threw it into the air,
"Blastoise, let's go," he ordered, the big, blue, poor excuse for a Squirtle landed on the floor with a massive thud and a cloud of dust. It had fucking guns pointing out of its shell! I blinked, jaw open. Before I grinned.
"Fine play it like that," I said, backing up slightly, Ladd and Cherry stood either side of me, Cherry looking ready to run out on the battle felid. "Ladd, let's play," I mused. Cherry looked heartbroken, but my brown puppy dog ran out and growled.
Gary laughed, "That thing isn't gonna win against my Blastoise"
"Well, that's see about that. We've been together since I was 5," I smirked, "Ladd lets go with take down." Ladd sprinted forward to the Blastoise.
"Water gun," Gary ordered, with a half-assed voice. The beast took aim with its guns letting water spout from it, but Ladd, being small and nimble, was able to easily dodge and jump out the way of the jet of water, before smacking his head straight into the soft underbelly of the giant turtle. Ladd landed behind him and then bit Gary's Pokémon's tail.

I smiled, "GOOD BOY LADD," I shouted to him. He barked in response.
"NOW BODY SLAM," Gary screamed, clenching his fists, angry having underestimated my Lillipup. Ladd looked up, to see a shadow looming over him as the rival collapsed onto him.
I gasped, "Ladd!"
The beast rolled over; there was a large crater in the ground and in the center was what had once been my darling puppy. He opened one eye and stood up, his legs shaking terribly.
"Finish him off with hydro pump" Gary said. I blinked.
"Ladd get outta there quickly!"
Ladd looked up growling and hunching its back legs, attempting to jump into the air and over his opponent, but fell onto his side with a loud yelp. I stared and ran forward, shielding my best friend; the water hit my back with an incredible force causing both me and Ladd to be swept into the bushes which surrounded the dirt path. Cherry stood on a rock staring. I smiled softly kissing Ladd's head.
"Sorry we didn't win Ladd maybe next time. Rest up in you Pokèball" I said, and pulled his ball off my belt and tapped him. The red laser pulled him into his ball. Only then did I crawl out. The dry path was now a mud bath. I held my arms open and my new pokèmon jumped into my grasp and together we walked on.
Gary quickly chased us with his Blastoise safely in its ball, "You asked me to battle you and I did, don't get in a mood with me girl. And why did you stop us from defeating your dog?"
"He is my best friend. I wouldn't want him to be hurt that bad. I think I've just fucked my back up though" I said walking with a slight limp. My right knee was twisted and this in turn caused all of my leg to point right instead of going straight on. In cold weather I had problems walking, so I take medicine to help the joints.
"Gees…" he said. And looked up, noticing the light fading. "Come on, let's run to the center, it isn't that far away now," he grumbled.

I smiled handing over the pokèball containing Ladd and past it to the Nurse Joy smiling warmly. "Thankyou" She said
I leant against the container dusting my feet down, Gary walked over. "Ok. I have money to pay for a hotel room for us tonight but other than that I'm skint. You got anything?"
"Nope, but I can get us some food if you need it that badly. I'm not overly hungry you see," I said smiling.
"Well I'll skip dinner tonight. Tomorrow we can set off to Cherrygrove" Gary, holding a yawn down, said. I nodded and looked back at Nurse Joy who passed over my ball.
"Please call again"
I nodded and walked out of the center, but not before grabbing a W.A.N.T.E.D poster of the wall. I looked at it, red hair and crudely drawn I stuffed it into my pocket. Ladd jumped from the ball and bounced around playfully. Cherry was asleep in her pokèball.
"I still hate you, oaky?"
"Course you do. You're Hope's bitching bitch of a sister."
"Hey it's Professor Luck to you," I complained, face showing my agitation. Yes my brother's name was Hope. Don't ask me why; the only reason me and he came up with was Mother was high on drugs when she signed the birth certificate. Father on the other hand was chilling out with Professor Oak and didn't think at all that, she wouldn't do something so stupid. Well after that, Dad figured he would be there for my birth in case she saddled me with a dude's name. Something like Fernando.
"I and The Professor have been working close for years, I can call him Hope if I want to," Gary said
"Gary I should shut your mouth because if you don't I will start taking pictures of you" I threatened.
"I don't mind pictures of me"
"Ok Gary you're gonna regret it though" I mumbled
"Really?
"Yep,"
Gary jumped forward slightly and blinked turning around there was a red headed kid the same age as I and Gary but he looked like he had something on his mind. Blinking; I pulled out the poster and past it over to Gar, who also blinked.
"Erm…that can't be him. The hairs too long and he doesn't have scar on his face"
"That's my...erm…cousin," he said, standing up before walking off. I looked at Gary and shrugged,
"Whatever, Can we go get a room. I wanna go to bed."
"Yeh sure. This way," he said and led the way to the lodge.

Yeah, so the first chapter of our joint story. This my writing, and Akasuki will be just your average bold. My chapter next XD
