Austin's and Kimi's
Sinnoh Adventure of Love
It was a beautiful day in the Sinnoh region. The Swanna were dancing, the Lilipups were playing in the grass, and everything seemed right in the world. This is where we begin our story on Austin Keeler and Kimi Lashings, a pair of very special trainers who would never battle unless it was necessary. We join them today as they begin their journey to the famous Pokémon Mansion. What twists and turns await our heroes? Let's watch and find out!
"Hurry up Kimi! We're going to be late for the train if you don't hurry up!" declared Austin excitedly.
"Sorry! I'm trying my best, but you keep running ahead of me!" whined Kimi, who was exhausted from what was practically a mile long sprint.
"Why can't we just wait for the next train?"
"Because this is the last train for the night! Now come on!"
"Ugh, I wouldn't mind a night alone together…" Kimi grumbled to herself just out of earshot.
As they rounded the final bend, a loud whistle could be heard in the distance. Fearing the worst, the pair ran with all their might to try and catch the train before it left.
"Oh no! Hurry Kim or we'll miss the train!"
"I'm running as fast as my legs can carry me!"
They were finally able to reach the train station, but were too late to even make a leap on the back. They both collapsed from exhaustion. Realizing that they would need to get a room now, Austin got up and attempted to hide his frustration as he went over to Kimi who looked like she was about to faint.
"I'm so sorry Austin… this is all my fault!" she cried, fearing that Austin was truly angry with her.
"Don't worry Kim, we can just stay at a hotel until tomorrow and leave then. There we can rest up before the long ride." Austin said reassuringly.
"Are you sure your not mad?"
"Yes I'm sure, now come on, let's go find an inn."
At that, Austin gently helped Kimi up as they began their search for a nice hotel. Austin was hoping to get whatever room Kimi wanted, but she was content with a little motel near the station. It was apparent to Austin that Kimi still felt guilty about making them miss the train, but there was nothing he could do to cheer her up at the moment.
As they entered the lobby of the motel, Austin came to realize that the building looked rather clean and well manicured. This came as a huge surprise since there were so few cars in the front. Austin walked up to the counter where a petite old woman wearing a kimono sat with a clipboard in her hands.
"One room for two please."
"Single Bed?"
"Uhh… sure?" Ash said uncertainly, as he had no idea what a Single Bed was.
"Ohohoho! Very well deary, enjoy your stay with your little girlfriend!" the woman laughed heartily.
"What was that all about?" asked Kimi, who had no more knowledge about bed sizes than Austin.
"I don't know, let's just go to our room and get settled for the night."
They finally reached their room after a walk that was far longer than they expected. As it turned out, the hotel was built to hold 100 rooms, and the main parking lot was in the far back of the building. It was a very pleasant setting, basically a large two-story square with a pleasant little pool/zen garden in the center. They eventually reached their room, a quaint little room that seemed to be well taken care of except one problem… there was a single bed.
"I thought the women meant single as a size!" yelped Kimi in frustration.
"Same here, now I get why the old lady was laughing to herself…" Austin murmured, embarrassed about the stupid mistake that he had made.
"Well, I guess you can have the bed, I'll just sleep on the couch. This is my fault anyways."
"O-ok… but what couch?"
Austin looked around and realized that this room was far smaller than the average hotel room, and didn't have room to hold a sofa. There was hardly even room for the single chair by the front window.
"Well, I guess I'll just sleep on the floor then" Austin sighed exhaustedly.
"Oh Austin I'm so sorry about this, it's all my fault you have to go through this mess!"
"Don't worry about it Kim, I'm fine with the floor it'll be just like camping outside!" Austin loved it when they had to camp out in the wilderness. The sense of caution as he slept gave him a buzz that can't really be compared to anything else. Well, maybe 'one' thing…
Well, what do you guys think? I'm considering combining the next two chapters into one extra long chapter... Tell me what you think of my debut chapter and stay tuned for a new chapter very soon! -Sniper125
