Chapter Two: And he walked away
Before she continued walking, Luna wiped away her tears. She turned to the building. It was a large, rather uninteresting looking building with a yellow brick wall and several large windows on the frontside. She could not see any door on this side of the house, but before she was able to start search for one, she heard a door slam from the right side of the building. A guy with long brown hair, a black T-shirt and purple pants walked towards her. He didn't seem to notice Luna until he got closer. He stood still for some minutes and just stared at Luna. Then he said:
"Luna? Luna Andersen? From class 9C?"
"Uhm yea" Luna answered, unsure how he knew it. "Uh, this may sound pretty awkward, but I can't remember if I've ever meet you?"
"Oh, you too" the boy said in a somber tone.
The boy then turned around. In a much more annoyed manner the boy said:
"So she doesn't remember my name either."
Luna felt like he was talking to himself. She asked for his name and he answered:
"Blue Oak. You better remember the name."
For a second, Luna felt annoyed at his behaviour, but then she realised something.
"Wait" Luna said. "Are you related to Professor Oak?"
"Yes" Blue answered.
Not sure how to continue the conversation, Luna finally decided that it was time to enter the lab. However, Blue halted her before she was able to make any progress.
"I wanna battle you" he said. "We do not need to bet any money. I just wanna battle someone."
Luna started to blush as she tried to explain to Blue that she was on her way to receive her starter. Blue then started to walk away.
"Smell ya later" he said before he quickly disappeared out of sight.
Luna was standing still. She felt pretty embarrassed. How come I can't remember him, Luna thought. Never had she forgotten the name of a classmate. Maybe he had been in a parallel class. That didn't answered how he knew of her though, as Luna wasn't the most outgoing person in her class nor had the best grades. Then she started to walk towards the building.
Now she was right outside the door. Soon she would have her own pokemon. Soon she would be able to travel the world. Soon I'll meet you again, Luna whispered. She opened the door and entered the building.
