Disclaimer: I don't own Pokemon.
It was a 2 o'clock in the afternoon. A laboratory's door swung open. A woman wearing a green skirt, a white shirt, and lab coat walked out, holding what seemed like a gift. She walked in front of house and knocked on the door. A woman with long, curly, brown hair answered.
"Hello, Professor Juniper," the woman said, "What brings you here?"
"I just came here to drop off these," Professor Juniper opened the gift, revealing three pokeballs, "Are the kids around?"
"Sorry, they're playing right now. I'll just put these in Black's room and tell them when they're done playing."
"Ok, thank you."
"No, thank you." Both women smiled as Professor Juniper walked away. The woman went up to her son's room and placed them on his table. As she looked at the box containing three pokeballs, the woman let out a sigh.
"I remember the day I got my first pokemon," she said to herself. Just then, a Zorua appeared behind her and nudged at her foot. She picked him up and said, "Yes, I remember the day I found you." She hugged the pokemon, and it playfully rubbed its nose on her. Then, four kids walked in the house.
"Hey, Mom," a boy with messy, brown hair, wearing a red and white cap with a black pokeball symbol on it to cover the hair, a blue jacket, grayish pants, and red shoes spoke.
"Hello, Black," the boy's mother said, "Professor Juniper came by today and dropped of a package."
"A package?" a girl with brown hair wrapped in a ponytail, which was covered by a white cap with a red pokeball symbol, wearing a black vest, a white shirt, blue shorts that ended slightly above the middle between the waist and knees, and black shoes shouted. "Is it the one containing the pokemon in it?"
"Yes, White, it-"
"Alright!" White ran up to Black's room to see the pokemon.
"I can see why you have a crush on her," Black's mom whispered.
"Mom!" Black quietly said in an annoyed tone. A snicker came out of the boy standing behind Black. He had black hair, glasses, a blue jacket with a white shirt that had an orange 'Y' on it, black pants, and blue shoes. Giggles came out a girl with blonde hair. She wore a green hat with a white line through it, a white dress covered by an orange vest, orange stocking, and yellow shoes.
"Quiet you two," Black said to them. Then, he ran up the stairs to his room.
"You think those two will get together, Cheren?" the girl asked.
"Bianca, the world will end if they don't," the boy said.
"Maybe after they get together, we could double date! Those two, you and me."
"What?" Cheren said, slightly blushing as he did.
"Nothing!" Bianca said quickly, also blushing. The two walked up the stairs, dismissing the conversation. When the two came up, White shouted, "It's about time!"
"Sorry," Bianca said.
"Our apologies," Cheren sarcastically remarked.
"Bianca, I accept your apology. On the other hand, you, geekwad, better use a different tone!"
"Whatever, can we just open up the gift!"
"Alright, nerd. Black," White said, her tone changing from annoyed to sweet when she spoke to Black, "since this is your house, you open it."
"Okay," Black said with a smile. He opened the box up, revealing three pokeballs and a note. The note read:
Hello you four. In this box is three pokemon to help you start your adventure! I'm sorry I could not another in there, but I thought it would be better for the fourth to pick at my lab. Please choose whichever pokemon you like. Enjoy!
-Professor Juniper-
"Sweet! We get to choose our pokemon!" Black said.
"Yes, but there's only three in the box," Cheren said.
"So, who isn't going to choose?" Bianca said. All four were silent. After a while, Black was about to speak, when White said, "Alright, I'll wait."
"You sure you don't want to pick now?" Black said.
"It's cool. Besides, I still get to choose at the lab. I can wait," she said.
"Ok, so it's settled," Cheren said.
"Ok," Bianca said, "Well, like White said, it's Black's home. So, he should pick first."
"Alright," Black said. Each ball was in a slot with the respective names of the pokemon in them. Black picked up the one in the middle. This ball belonged to Tepig.
"Tepig, huh?" Black said. He let the pokemon out, and the pig jumped out of its ball. It saw Black and ran up to him in an excited way. Black smiled at the little pig and said, "Definitely him!"
"Aw," Bianca and White said in unison.
"Well, I pick Snivy. Cheren, you get Oshawott." Bianca said.
"Well, I wanted Oshawott anyway, but let me pick for myself next time."
"Oh, calm down, Cheren," White said, "You got the one you wanted, so it all worked out. Now, why don't you guys have a battle?"
"In Black's room? I don't think his mom would like it," Cheren said.
"I'm alright with it!" Black's mom shouted from downstairs, "Just be careful!"
White stuck her tongue out at Cheren in victory. Then, she said, "Alright, Cheren and Black, you two will go."
"What about me?" Bianca said.
"You'll face me after I get my pokemon."
"Oh, okay. Go on you two."
"Alright, let's go, Cheren!" Black said.
"Don't get cocky! Oshawott, go!"
"Tepig, come on out!"
Both pokemon were released from their pokeballs, ready to battle.
"Tepig, tackle!" Tepig lunged at the blue otter and hit it in the chest. As Oshawott got up, Cheren spoke.
"Oshawott, tackle!" The blue otter ran up to the red pig and hit it at its side. Both pokemon battled and bounced off the walls of the room as their trainers gave their commands. Eventually, both became tired, but still did not give up. However, their could only be one victor.
"Alright, Tepig, let's end this now! Tackle!" The pokemon ran up and knocked Oshawott in the air. The otter landed on the ground with a thud, and was knocked out.
"Oshawott!" Cheren ran up to it and looked it. Black had won the battle. "Good battle, Oshawoot. Return!" The pokemon returned to its ball. Cheren looked and saw Black and Tepig jumping in victory.
"Yeah, we won! Way to go, Tepig!" Black shouted. Tepig was running around Black as it celebrated their victory. Bianca was smiling at the three, while White was cheering for Black and Tepig.
"Woo! Way to go you two!" White shouted. She ran up to Black and gave him a high five as she joined the two in their victory. Bianca walked up to Cheren and said, "You did a good job too." Cheren smiled at her and she smiled back.
"Thanks," he said. Both looked at Black, his Tepig, and White. While Tepig was still jumping in victory, White and Black looked at each other. Then, White hugged Black. He was a little shocked, but still kept his footing. While blushing, Black smiled and hugged her back. Cheren and Bianca smiled at the two, and Cheren whispered, "Like I said, if they don't get together, the world will end. Now, I must end a happy moment." Cheren spoke up and said, "Guys, look around at what we did." Black and White looked up and saw Black's room. The TV had fallen over; a Wii was lying by a fallen shelf, a desk was toppled over a bed.
" . . . My mom's gonna kill me." Black said.
"So, once again, we would like to apologize," Cheren said to Black's mom.
"Yeah, sorry, Mom," Black said.
"It's okay, Honey. I'll just clean it up later. Oh, by the way, your cross-transceiver came in from the shop." Black's mom threw the Xtransceiver to Black, and he caught it, though barely.
"Great job, Butterfingers," Cheren said.
"You're one to talk, Cheren. You had to get yours in the shop from breaking it on the first day!" White said. Black smiled at White taking his side.
"Whatever, can we just go to the lab now?"
"Good luck you four. I'll tell you parents. Be careful!" Black's mom said.
"We will!"
"We'll be fine!"
"Thanks for caring!"
"See ya!"
After the four walked out, Bianca said, "First, I have to go to my house. I forgot something."
"Your Xtransceiver?"
"Yeah. See you guys in a bit!" As Bianca ran to her house, Cheren spoke.
"One of us should go to her house to check on her."
"Why not you?" White said.
"Because. . ."
"Can't think of anything?" Black said, "It's idea to see her, and besides . . ." Black and White walked up by his shoulders, and both said
". . . You love her." White and Black just walked by the now red faced, black haired boy. Then, Cheren walked to Bianca's house.
"Those two were made for each other." White said with a smile.
Black also smiled and said, "If they don't get together, I don't even know what this world is anymore."
"Those two . . . " Cheren was grumbling to himself. Ever since he told those two he thought Bianca was cute when they were five, Black and White have constantly been bothering him about asking her out.
Age ten:
"It's been five years. I just said she was cute. I didn't say I liked her." Cheren said.
"Whatever." Black and White spoke
Age thirteen:
"Ask her out!" White said.
"You know you want to!" Black said.
"I don't!"
Of course, he really did like her. To him, she's more beautiful than any other girl in the world. However, whenever the oppurtunity came, he never said anything.
"Maybe, I should ask her out," he said to himself. As he thought to himself, he slammed into the tree in front of Bianca's house. He picked himself up, straightened his glasses, and walked in. The door was already open, and Bianca and her dad were arguing.
"But, I have a pokemon and everything!" Bianca said.
"I don't care. You're still a little girl!" her dad shouted.
"I'm fifteen and you can't stop me!" As Bianca walked in a huff, she saw Cheren at the door. "Cheren, please explain to my dad that I can go on an adventure."
"She's still too young!" Bianca's dad shouted.
"Sir," Cheren said, "I understand where you're coming from. But, don't you think you're being a little bit overprotective?"
"What did you say, son?"
"She is fifteen. She does have a pokemon. I do as well. Black, White, Bianca, and I have all decided to start our quest. I know that since you are her parent, you're worried. But, our friends and I will take care of her. I promise."
The older man was simply staring at this boy. He did not give a response. After a while, Bianca said, "Come on, Cheren. Let's go." She grabbed Cheren's hand and closed the door.
"You know," Bianca's mom said, "She had gotten older. She's starting to not be our little girl anymore."
Bianca's dad finally spoke up, "That's what I'm worried about."
Cheren and Bianca were walking up the road to Juniper's lab. They were quiet for a bit, then Bianca spoke.
"Thank you," she said, "for trying to convince him."
"Anytime," Cheren said, "He's just worried for you is all. Parents are always worried."
"I know, but still, thanks." Then, Bianca kissed Cheren on the cheek, grabbed his hand, and walked to the lab. Cheren was red-faced and nearly lost his balance when she grabbed his hand. When both walked to the lab, White and Black both spoke.
"What's going on, love birds?" Bianca blushed a bit, and Cheren became even more red than what seemed possible.
"Let's go, you two," White said, and all three entered the lab. The lab was filled with shelves on the walls. Pokeballs were in different sets. Different machines were everywhere. After gazing at the amazing technology, the group found Juniper.
"Hello, kids!" Juniper said. "It's nice to see you all. First off, who did not get a pokemon?"
"I didn't!" White shouted.
"Well, which started do you want?" Juniper laid three pokeballs on the table, each with a label.. White picked the one with Tepig and let it out. The Tepig was clearly a female, with eyelashed batting.
"Aw, it's so cute!" White picked the Tepig up and hugged it. The Tepig smiled and squealed with happiness. The little pokemon saw something interesting in White's bag and pulled it out. It was a red bow with a pokeball symbol in the center. "You like it?" White asked. The Tepig shook her head, and White decided on something. She put the between the pokemon's ears. The tepig was happy with this, and rubbed her head on White's head. White out the tepig down and said, "I think it's obvious who I pick."
"Alright, I think she likes you too. In fact, all of you get your pokemon out." The other three let out thier pokemon. Oshawott was perfectly happy with Cheren. Snivy had just saw Bianca for the first time and liked her. It wrapped itself around Bianca's leg, and Bianca smiled. Black's Tepig smiled as it saw Black . . . and the smile became larger when it saw White's Tepig. The male walked up the girl and started talking to it.
"Tep, Tepig, Tepig!" (Hi, my trainer is that boy over there. It's nice to meet you!"
White's Tepig smiled back and said, "Tepig, Tepig!" (Nice to meet you! My trainer is the girl beside us."
"Tepig, Tep." (Cool, I hope we get to see each other more often!")
"Tepig." (I hope so too.) Both Tepigs sat down, with White's on Black's side.
"Aw, they like each other!" White said.
"That's so cute!" Bianca said.
"While that is cute, the professor was talking." Cheren said.
"I can see that your pokemon like you, and two like each other. That's great. That'll help in what I'd like you four to do."
"What do you need?"
"You've heard of the PokeDex, right?" Black, White, and Cheren had. Bianca had not."
"PokeDex?" she asked.
"The pokedex is basically an encyclopedia for pokemon. It collects data for pokemon. What I would like is for you four to try to complete it. Do you think you can do it?" All four looked at each other,a nd shook thier heads in the 'Yes' way. "Good! So, here are your pokedexes. But, you need to catch pokemon in order to collect the data. Follow me to Route 1." The four returned the pokemon to their pokeballs, and followed Juniper outside. While Juniper went to Route 1, Black's mom came up.
"Hey! I don't mean to bother to four but I thought you'd need these maps! One for each of you!"
"Thanks, Mom." Black said.
"Okay, I'll see you four later. Take care of yourselves!"
"These maps are going to help us." Cheren said, "Well, we might as well go on. The professor is waiting." As the four went up to the sign that said 'Leaving Nuvema Town', Bianca said, "Let's take our first step into Route 1 at the same time. 1, 2, 3!" All four stpped into Route 1, then White and Black ran.
"Guys, wait!" Bianca said.
"You said first STEP, not STEPS!" White said. As she and Black raced to see who would get to Juniper first, Cheren and Bianca followed them. White won the race by barely a step.
"HA! I win!" White jumped in victory, while Black was panting in defeat. Then, Cheren and Bianca caught up to them
"Well, I'm glad you're excited!" Juniper said. "Now, you all know how to catch a pokemon, right?"
"First, you should try weakening it with attacks and status conditions," Cheren said, "Then, catch it with a pokeball."
"Very good, Cheren! Since you know about it, I'll let you catch some pokemon yourselves! Here are five pokeballs for each of you! I'll be in Accumala Town when you're ready!"
"I have an idea!" Bianca said. "WHy not have a catching contest? The one with the most pokemon wins!"
"Wait, Bianca," White said, "What about our battle?"
"Oh, sorry, I forgot. Can we battle later?"
"Ugh, okay." White huffed. "I like the idea of a catching contest! Sounds fun!"
"Aren't they're only two pokemon in this route anyway?" Black said.
"Actually, there are more," Cheren said, "You just have to find them. The idea seems interesting."
"Ok, I'm in!" Black said. "Everybody break!"
The four ran off into different directions. Bianca took out her Snivy and spotted a Lillipup. The Lillipup tackled Snivy, but the snake attacked back. After a while, Bianca threw a ball and watched it shake. After a while, the ball stopped shaking, and it was caught. While she caught her Lillipup, Cheren had caught a Purloin with no difficulty. However, White and Black had some trouble.
"Come on, Audino! Just give me a chance!" White shouted. The Audino just mocked her and fought her Tepig. Tepig was getting annoyed and she finally reached a boiling point. She attacked the Audino and kept hitting it, with the Audino hitting back. Audino seemed to have an advantage, but this was taken when a Patrat slammed on it out of nowhere. Then, Black's Tepig appeared, also angry. Black and White saw each other, smiled, and stared at their respective pokemon. Their two battles had just turned into one double battle.
"Tepig, tackle!" Both trainers shouted. The Tepigs ran at their respective targets. Black's almost slammed into the Patrat, but it moved at the last second, making Tepig slam into a tree. To Tepig, everything was spinning. However, he got his sight back and saw Audino being slammed into a tree by White's Tepig. Patrat was behind her and was about to attack her, but Tepig hit him in his side. Making him fall to the ground. WHite's Tepig saw this and she smiled. However, Audino grabbed her and threw her in the sky. Black saw this and how angry his Tepig.
"Tepig, attack Audino!" Tepig tackled Audino, and Audino felt massive pain in its stomach. White saw this and decided it was time to catch it. She threw a pokeball which landed on Audino's head. The ball opened up, and a Audino was sealed in it. The ball shook furiously, until it finally came to a stop.
"Yeah! I caught it!" White shouted in victory. But she stopped to see how her Tepig was holding up. Her's made Patrat nearly faint, and that was Black needed. He threw his ball, and it sealed Patrat in. When the ball came to a stop, Black smiled, grabbed the ball, and put it in his party. He blushed a little when White ran up to him, and hugged him from behind.
"Well, let's find Bianca and Cheren." White said. Black shook his head, and both returned their Tepigs to their pokeballs. Both walked beside each other for a while, and, eventually, found Cheren and Bianca.
"Hey, so did you catch some Pokemon?" Bianca asked. All four had two pokemon in their party, their starters and one they caught.
"So, we're tied! Still it was fun!" Bianca said.
"It was awesome!" White shouted, "You should have seen it. Our Tepigs battled the Audino and Patrat we caught in a double battle! It was awesome!"
"A double battle? Interesting." Cheren said.
"It really was awesome! Our pokemon make a great team, don't they?" Black said.
"Not just them. We do too!" Black had a giant smile when White said that. While listening to her go on about the battle, he just stared at the girl who he had a crush on since they first met. He loved every feature about her. Her hair, her eyes, other features. He loved everything about her.
"Well, that is truely a great story," Cheren said, "But, I'm going to head to Accumala Town now."
"Me too!" Bianca said. Both walked over to the entrance of the town.
"Well, we better follow them," Black said.
"Alright." White grabbed Black's hand and walked beside him as they entered the town.
