(a/n:) I apologize if my details haven't been totally up to snuff, and as for Brock's Pokemon I know about the changes, but I prefer to let him have some of my favorite Pokemon he's had. anyway enough chatter onto the story, finally I'd like to apologize for the confusion of the island, it's true name is Creamse. Pronounce it as if you were French. and I'd like to thank those who commented my first chapter )
Disclaimer: I don't own Pokemon.
Ash looked at the amazing city before him. All of the buildings appeared to shimmer a brilliant silver in the afternoon sun. Stretching to the top of the sky was a tower that was very narrow until it reached the top, there it fanned into a ball shape before meeting to a point at the top. In addition to that scattered across the city were enormous glass tube-like things that were carrying shuttles to and fro.
"This is amazing!" Ash gawked
"Pi" was all his acomplise could muster to say.
"Hey Ash come on!" Ritchie called waving a few yards away by cluster of people, Sparky sitting comfortably on his shoulder.
Ash ran over and looked up at a large man in a dark blue suit, white shirt and red bow tie. He had a walrus mustache and a monocle in his left eye, last there was a top hat perched lovingly upon his head. The man had a microphone and held it up to his mouth allowing his deep voice to cackle over the crowd.
"Trainers, Coordinators, and Breeders alike, I bid you welcome to our Island! I am Mayor Page and will be escorting you to the three different complexes that await your skill. Now if you will all board a shuttle we will procede."
"So that's why Mr. Contesta was involved, there are coordinators here too. I wonder…."
But his thoughts were soon interrupted by two familiar voices.
"Ash!"
The boy in question turned to see his two previous traveling companions Dawn and May. They were both in the same out fit's he'd last seen them in. Dawn in her black over white shirt with pink boots, and skirt to match stood there smiling with her blue hair tucked under her white bandana. May stood in her Orange and white shirt over her white skirt and black bicycle shorts with her hair split under her green bandana, and just beaming."
"Hey! Let me guess, you're here for the contest institution?"
"Sure are!" They both responded in unison.
"Sound like a good time" He smiled, it was good to see both of them after the time apart.
"Come on we can catch up later. we've got to board!" May shrieked and pushed both Dawn and Ash into the nearest car, which was packed full of people.
"Ash over here!" Ritchie waved with Brock by his side.
"Well Dawn, May, it's good to see both of you." Brock greeted.
"You to Brock!" Dawn replied, before introducing herself to Ritchie
"Hi, I'm Dawn"
"Ritchie, Charmed" He nodded.
"Passengers please secure yourselves, the shuttle will now be leaving." The intercom overhead announced.
Ash sat down next to Ritchie and May followed suit next to him and Dawn sat across next to Brock so that she was facing the three. Ash looked around, everyone had sat down and buckled up on the light blue cushioned chairs that were facing opposite sides of the walls with an isle down the middle. The low white ceiling had only 3 lighted bulbs in shades that were useless due to the outside sun. Outside as the shuttle took off they left the ground only to be met by buildings speeding by as the traveled through the tubes.
As the group caught up and exchanged news the moving transportation began to slow to a stop inside an upper floor of a building.
"You may now unbuckle yourselves and exit the shuttle, we would like to thank you for using Creamse Shuttle's" The intercom announced.
Everyone unbuckled and began flowing from their cars. They had stopped inside a huge hub that had almost a mile length that was bringing in new shuttles.
The Mayor came up in front of everyone and stood on an upturned can of paint.
"May I have your attention! Please take the separate hallways behind me to your designated building. There you will be registered, roomed, and have your schedules assessed. And questions?"
No one answered, either they were nervous or excited to begin.
Seeing this the Mayor steeped down and allowed everyone to depart.
The room they were in now was a black room with windows on ever sides besides that of the shuttle stations and the exit hallways. On the hallway side the three were marked. The one on the far left read Breeders, middle said Trainers, and the far right said Coordinators, all in large blinking yellow lights.
"Looks like this is where we split Brocko." Ash said
"Looks like it, good luck Ash." Brock said before turning to go to his own journey.
Ash then turned to be engulfed in hugs as Dawn and May departed.
"Well Ritchie you set?"
"Ready when you are."
With that both entered the middle corridor. With trainers in front and back it was difficult to see where they were going. From what Ash could see the hallway wasn't to long, but he sensed that the floor beneath them was at least 12 stories above the ground. After the walk the black corridor let out into a large well-lit walkway that was part of a gigantic circular building. The walkway was more of a second hallway with white marble floors, and one side was no wall, just windows holding up the charcoal black ceiling. the opposite walls were a deep orange that had information desks spread every few yards.
"Come on Ritchie lets get signed in before they get crowded." Ash called while running down the right side of the hall from where they entered.
"Oooofff!" Ash grunted as he collided and was knocked over onto his back.
"Hey why don't you watch where your going you could have really hurt someone!"
"Misty!?" Ash asked astonished.
Well end chapter two and we have just brought in some more characters, I apologize for the slow pace of these chapters, but I have little time to write, please R&R and I may be tempted to update quickly. No flames though please.
