Chapter Two! I hope you enjoy! xoxo Disclaimer (I DO NOT OWN POKEMON)

As we walked along the road to Striaton city I shuffled along the path, Tynamo at my heels. Suddenly I tripped.

"Ouch! You stupid rock!" I said as Tynamo bumped into me. A sky blue rock laid in the middle of the road. I picked it up, it was a lot lighter than I thought it would be, and it gave off a weird glow.

"Stupid rock I think I'll keep you." I said matter of factly. I put the stupid rock in my bag and got up, brushing my white dress off. Tynamo laughed at me and I laughed too.

"Sorry bout that im a little silly sometimes." Tynamo just shook her head and cuddled against my legs.

All of a sudden I heard a rustling in the bushes.

"Tynamo?" She said curiously.

"I don't know. Let's go check it out." I headed slowly over to the bushes, Tynamo close behind. I reached the bush and parted the branches, a pair of glowing eyes greeted me. A large monkey like pokemon rose from the bush. It looked angry.

"What is that?" I said pulling out my pokedex. Simisear, the fire monkey pokemon. It scatters flames from its tail to burn opponents when its angry. I looked up at the huge pokemon before me.

"Please Simisear, we didn't mean to bother you. I was just wondering what was making that noise." The fiery pokemon looked at me, his eyes filled with rage. I backed away quickly, Tynamo hiding behind my legs. Simisear stepped out from the bush towards us, fiery embers shooting from its tail.

All of a sudden a huge purple pokemon blocked the Simisear from attacking. Everything happened so fast. The strange new pokemon slammed into the angry Simisear, sending it flying, then it turned to me smiling. I blinked a few times, fully taking it in.

It was a big purple centipede like pokemon with 6 legs. It had a pointed beak like mouth and had reins in its jaws. I realized I had fallen back when the pokemon appeared so I got up and walked curiously forward.

"Well you could at least say thank you." A girl jumped down in front of me, making me flinch slightly. A Snivy perched on her shoulder, hugging her head closely.

"Um.. Who are you?" The girl looked to be about my age. She had long black hair that fell to her waist. Her smooth tan skin was complimented by deep forest green eyes, that matched her outfit. A loose sleeveless turtleneck sweater with grey shorts and knee high riding boots.

"My name is Andrea. I was passing by when I saw that Simisear try to attack you." I smiled and hugged her tightly. She flinched but hugged me back.

"Thank you so much! Tynamo and I were just checking out a sound and then Simisear attacked us." I pulled back and smiled gratefully.

"Did you say Tynamo?" I nodded and picked up the little cutie from behind my legs.

"Yeah she's my partner. We just started our journey today." Tynamo cooed and cuddled close to me. I giggled and looked back at Andrea.

"Wow you really just started your journey? I've been on mine for awhile now. Me and Snivy here are a great team." The Snivy smiled proudly and nestled her hair.

"Scoliapede!" Andrea turned and stroked the large pokemon's neck.

"And of course I have Scoliapede here to protect us all from big scary pokemon!" she cooed over Scoliapede, giggling slightly.

"Oh and this…" She said turning around. "Is Swadloon. She's really lazy and loves to be carried so I made her this pouch." I giggled and looked at the leafy pokemon.

"All of your pokemon are really great! I'm sure they're really strong too." Andrea beamed.

"Yeah they are and look…" Andrea pulled out a small case and opened it. inside were two gym badges.

"Wow you already have two gym badges?!" She smiled.

"Yup, so where are you headed anyways?" I looked down the long road.

"Well we're heading to Striaton city. I hear they have a great gym there and I'd really like to test out me and Tynamo's strength." Andrea smiled and nodded.

"That sounds like a good plan for a beginner. Hey would you mind if I tagged along? It would be nice for us to have some company, and I bet it would be really fun!" I smiled widely and nodded.

"That would be great!" I clutched Tynamo closer as she happily cooed in my arms and cuddled close. Andrea took the reins from Scoliapede's mouth and pulled out a poke ball.

"okay Scoliapede time for a rest." The pokemon was beamed inside the poke ball with a bright red light. Andrea clutched her pack tighter as we headed down the road to Striaton city.

After a few hours of walking and talking non-stop we were completely tired out. The sun was beginning to set slowly over the horizon. -grrrmphrrr- I heard Tynamo's belly grumble and giggled.

"I think we should stop and make camp." Another growl came from Tynamo's belly.

"And super." Giggled Andrea. I set Tynamo down as we all walked towards the tree line.

After awhile we came to a small clearing.

"This looks perfect!" I said happily. We set out our sleeping bags and started a fire. I set up a big pot over the fire and began making my grandma's famous potato soup. Tynamo and Snivy began to play happily around our sleeping bags, causing me to laugh. Andrea let out Scoliapede and instantly he laid down by Andrea.

"You lazy thing." She said teasing. The large pokemon nudged her playfully then curled around her. She put Swadloon down safely on a large pillow, then wandered over to me.

"Mmmm that smells good!" I smiled and served her a bowl.

"It's my grandma's recipe." Andrea smiled and spooned the creamy soup into her mouth.

"Yum! This is really good!" I smiled and served up four more bowls, taking them over to the pokemon.

"Here guys try this." I set the bowls down as Tynamo, Snivy, Swadloon, and Scoliapede all sampled the soup. Happy cries came from everyone.

"Tynamo!"

"Snivy vy!"

"Swaaad!"

"Scoliapede!" I smiled as we all ate happily.

When we were all full everyone changed into their pj's and nestled down sleepily. I crawled into my sleeping bag and rolled over onto my stomach. Tynamo happily cuddled next to me on my pillow as I pulled out my sketch book. Tynamo curiously watched as I drew all my new friends around me. When I finished I packed up my book and turned over, gazing up at the stars.

"Today has been the best day of my life." I said happily, cuddling closer to Tynamo.

"Yeah, im really glad I met you liliana. If I hadn't who knows how long we would have suffered through my bad cooking." Andrea's pokemon groaned in agreement. I giggled and closed my eyes.

"Goodnight everyone." With all my new friends around me I fell into a deep peaceful sleep.

Hope you guys enjoyed! please tell me what you think! xoxo
