Chapter Two: Walking In Sunshine
"Nina, wait up!" The Minun stopped to wait for her friend, impatiently tapping her foot. Blue sparks fizzled around her cheeks as she glanced back at the rapidly growing shape of Ashfoot, her fellow adventurer. The Starly's left wing was flapping limply around his side, so he wasn't as fast as he would usually go, but Nina still got impatient with him sometimes. "Look what I found!" The bird pokemon had a small wooden container in his left claw, which explained his speed. The electric pokemon took it in her paws, inspecting it. "Wow. Sealed tight." She tapped one end and it suddenly slid out, dropping a small scroll tied with a brown and blue ribbon onto the grass. Ashfoot carefully picked it up and untied the ribbon with his beak. The parchment popped open to reveal golden lettering on the surface.
Time passes ever
Time waits never
Your Time tend
For all Times end
P.S: Seek the Waterweaver.
Nina frowned. "How encouraging. When I said I wanted to go on an adventure, I didn't mean this sort." Her friend rolled the scroll up delicately with a claw. "Yeah, but it said we should find the Waterweaver. Who's that, and where does he or she live?" The Minun's face changed to thoughtful, then delighted. "I've got it! Let's go down to the river!" The two friends rushed off downhill.
Standing on the banks of the river, Nina peered into it, looking for anything besides driftwood and lazy Magikarp. Suddenly, a Buizel leapt from the water, the pokemon's vibrant orange coat slick with droplets, onto the bank beside them. "Hello Nina! Hello Ashfoot! I've been waiting for you!" Startled, Ashfoot jerked backwards. "Wah! How do you know our names?" The water dweller smiled, a cheery grin that dispelled fear from anyone's minds. "I'm the Waterweaver, of course! The Timekeeper told me about you two!" The Minun gave a small smile. "What's your name?" she asked curiously. The Buizel laughed. "Micky! Now, I'll tell you more about where you're going and all when we get back to my den. Come on!" The pair of confused pokemon followed the leaping orange shape through the hills until they reached a tunnel. Micky grinned. "This is my place. Just in time for lunch!" The laughing Buizel led them into the hill and finally, they emerged in a cosy room...
AN: And finally the two main characters are introduced! Along with the second Weaver.
