"Gooooodddd Afternoon passengers!!"
"This is your skipper speaking, hope you all had a simply jubilant ride on the S.S Canyon!!"
"Heheh, we should be pulling into Sinnoh via Sandgem port in just a few hours, sooo sit back and relax for the remainder of the trip!!"
"Thank you and have a great day!!!" -click-
"Wow...you'd think I rode the super magical flying plane ship to Sinnoh." She sighed and set aside her dark brown acoustic guitar, so much for getting a few chords in. Standing up, she pulled out a small plastic card from her gray toned backpack, smiling as she made it all shiny with the edge of her shirt.
Isomari "Izzy", age 15, Pokemon trainer.
Yep that's her. But oh, there's more.
Standing at 5'6'',not too short, but tall enough to avoid the numerous "vertically challenged" jokes. Her skin was a naturally tan color, complementing nicely with her dark brown eyes. Eyes that held a look so ambitious, it's almost foreign to kids her age. Ending at her hip, her hair was a dark navy colored, raven-ish, even. Pin straight, with long choppy bangs that parted in the middle.
On her feet were boots. YAY FOR BOOTS. A dark gray with red laces top to bottom and a single orange stripe on the side. Now, take those colors and think glasses...there you go. For socks she had deep purple knee-highs, with a white stripes going up the sides. Pants were a simple dark blue, slightly baggy, ending right before her knees, with white pockets and carelessly sewn patches of fabric randomly placed, Holes? Maybe. Fashion Statement? Doubt it.
As for her upper body, she had a teal colored, sleeveless t-shirt, with a gliscor face plastered on the center. Tourist much? Anyway, on top of that shirt she had a bright yellow, again sleeveless, fitted sweatshirt. On her hand were purple gloves, with arm-warmer type things covering her forearms, the same color as her undershirt. See the pattern here? And finally, two purple bands were securely held on her left upper arm.
And well...that was her. She carried almost nothing with her, just her guitar, and her bag. Which held hand-written songs, pokemeds, her Pokemon. Oh and hot dogs...what? Hungry-ness knows no bounds.
Giving the card one last look, she slipped into the little side pocket on her bag, just for that. Leaning forward on the metal bar around the ship, she gazed out into the distance. A rush of adrenalin ran through her and she felt another smile creep onto face, "You better be ready Sinnoh people, 'cause I'm ready and gonna beat all of you!!!"
MEANWHILE: 100 FEET ABOVE
"Heh, why cruise when you can fly, right Chide?" The trainer's voice with met with a low growl from her Pokemon. If you haven't guessed...yes it is a Charizard. Huge sucker too. But I'm getting ahead. Aboard said Pokemon was a 16 year old girl. 5'7'' in height, slim in build, and fair in skin. Her hair was dirty blond in color and came down to the middle of her back, brushed out pretty. Her eyes were a deep green with hints of brown, holding a look that just oozed confidence for battling.
Her clothing was rather simple, but effective. A white long-sleeved shirt, a blouse like material with a blue, zipped up vest on top of it. The sleeves were always rolled up, letting her gray fingerless gloves and silver poketech stick out against her skin. Her pants were a gray-ish black jeans. And they're fitted...so just go with skinny jeans. Just simple tennis shoes clung to her feet. Blue and gray in color.
Where does she keep her crap? Well, in a gray over one shoulder trainer pack, that "clipped" on her hips when she walked.
So your thinking, that's all right? Nope.
Funny thing about this chick here, she's a human yeah yeah...but with ears and a tail. Yep, she's a pokemorph, a RAICHU pokemorph. Complete with big, floppy ears and a long tail. Thank Team Rocket for that little tidbit.
Katherine Marie Danre, Kit if you would.
"Okay Chide, enough showing off, lets get to Sandgem before that ship gets there." Angling slightly, the Charizard made a mini dive bomb toward the Region. The girl smirked as a thought ran through her head, "Sinnoh huh, well, let's see if you got what it takes to actually give me a challenge, heh, for once."
MEANWHILE(last time)AT THE SANDGEM POKEMON CENTER.
"My Goodness!!" "I've never seen a machoke with such a bump on the head before, I hope you don't try that again!"
"...sure..."
"Well, here you go!" "I hope you have a great day!!"
She took the pokeball without a word, placing it in her black, drawstring bag. Yeah ANOTHER girl, but not a trainer really. More on that later. Her name was Reina, now it's Yua. Yua Tech. REMEMBER THAT. 17 years old, olive skin tone, and short. 5'5''. Yeah, not that tall. Her eyes were a deep shade of purple, almost black, holding a distant look in them. Only one shown through her hair, which was a snow white. Cut and layered unlike anyone else, with bangs sweeping across her face, covering her right eye.(think Roxas). No expression could be found on her face, just a bored/blank look.
Now her clothing was also simple, but again, it works. Her shirt was a dark red sweater/turtleneck, that ended about 2 inches under her chest, exposing her well-toned stomach. For pants she wore just plain dark brown, flared jeans. Two belts were also in the mix, green and purple, angled on either side of her hips. Her shoes were just plain gray boots that went up to just above her ankle.
(okay descriptions are over!!)
Putting her hands in her pockets, Yua began heading toward the door of the Center. And as karma or fate would have it, she was met with some slight pressure. You see, as she was getting her Pokemon from the Nurse Joy, the S.S Canyon had stopped into port, and Izzy, not patient at all, jump off the ship, landed safely and started running full sprint to the Pokemon center. AND at that same moment, Kit and Chide were just about to land right in front of the door to the Center.
So.
Guess what happened.
KA-BLAM!!!!
Kit was thrown off of Chide, who ran straight into Yua, knocking her back into the Center. Kit ended up landing on top of Izzy, so harm to her. Izzy..well, not so much.
"guh...what the heck..." she rubbed the side of face, feeling a slight scrape. That was until she realized that a female was on top of her.
"WHA!? HEY GET OFF ME!!"
Kit stood up, feeling the bridge of her nose,
"Here's an idea, next time you go sprinting off, keep your eyes open." "Tough I know, but I THINK you can handle it. "
Izzy quickly scrambled up, glaring at the blond.
"I was looking! You just landed right there like you're a superhero or something."
"Oops, looks like you caught me, can I show you my super speed now?"
Both girls stood arguing in front of the door, oblivious to the third woman in the situation. She slowly stood up, unfazed by how hard she was hit. Her eye-lids lowered slightly when she saw her exit was blocked. Fixing her bag back on her shoulder, she took a step forward.
"Move."
"YEAH WELL YOUR THAT TIMES SI-...huh?"
The Arguees, stopped and stared at the woman.
"Can't you hang on a second, shortie?!" Kit snapped, giving her an irritated look. Some nerve. Which was responded with a simple look, that had no emotion at all in it. It was...scary. Kit took an instinctive step back.
"You knocked me over...so move, now"
The two continued to stare, either playing stupid or were just plain stupid, she couldn't tell. The blue haired one opened her mouth to speak, but was interrupted by the Nurse Joy there.
"Excuse me, but is one of you Yua?" "She has a call, sounds important"
Yua sighed, way to many annoyances today. She turned away from the two trainers and headed to one of the computer-TV-phone things around the corner.
As if sharing the same thought, both girls followed the third, peeking around the wall, trying to hear the conversation. Chide, choosing to stay out of it, was curled up outside the center, napping.
"YUA!! Finally!! I've been trying to get a hold of you for almost a week now!!"
She sighed, "What is it Roark?"
"Still the same I see." "Well, I was hoping you could head over here for a few days!"
She just stared, "....what?"
"Well how else am I suppose to see how Mizo's rock smash is improving if I can't see it first hand??"
"You could take my word for it."
"The last time I did that I almost got sued for 10,000 dollars."
"Fair enough" She sighed and ran a hand through her hair, "You know your asking the impossible Roark, I don't go back there."
"I know, but she's not here! She left yesterday on some type of 4 week cruise to Hoenn, she won't be back for a while"
The two eavesdroppers were listening intently, curiosity growing. "Who is "she"?" "Who is SHE?? This Yua girl?" "Mizo?"
Yua sighed again, "Dammit Roark, don't you have mining or gym battles or something?"
"Awww c'mon Yua!!" "I haven't seen you and your Pokemon since last year!"
"hnnnn...same living conditions as last time?"
"Yep, and hey, you can even bring your friends over there!!"
"Wha-" She turned around and saw the other two girls before they could duck out of sight. Yua rolled her eyes, "Annoying little pests..." She turned back to Roark,
"I'll be there in two days."
"Great!! See you then!" -click-
Setting the phone back on the receiver, Yua picked up her bag and walked up to the trainers, who were trying REAL hard to act natural..but sucked.
"Why were you listening to my conversation?" A simple question, but that "look" she was giving them...made it a lot harder.
Kit took the first step, tall-ness build confidence ya know.
"W-we...just wanted to um....apologize!"
Izzy took over then, "Yeah!! For running into you earlier!" "I'm Izzy" Smiling and holding her hands out in a peaceful gesture,
"And I'm Kit!" Following Izzy's lead.
Now it was Yua's turn to stare, eyes widening a fraction. What? Who does that?
Her gaze quickly narrowed again. "I don't care who you are."
And walked away, out the door.
As soon as the door closed, both girls relaxed.
"Whoa...she's scary." Kit shuddered.
"Yeah, so you're Kit, nice to meet you, sorry about earlier."
"Same here Izzy." The two weren't looking at each other during this conversation, but straight at the door.
"That guy she was talking to...he's a gym leader right?"
Kit flipped through the apps on her Poketech, "Yeah, Roark, Oreburgh City Gym Leader. Rock Pokemon" She smirked to herself, "That won't take long."
"Huh..." Izzy was quiet for a few moments, staring at the door.
"What're you staring at?"
Silence, then looked at her with a look of determination.
"I'm gonna go follow her."
Kit's eyes widened. "What?! Why!? She'll kill you!"
"No she won't!" "And it just feels like something that I should do..."
"Oh....yeah, me too.."
"That, and I don't know how to get to Orelugh."
"Oreburgh."
"Yeah that."
"So...are you gonna come too?"
Kit thought for a moment, "....yeah."
She smirked. "It's not like getting badges is hard for me."
Izzy's eyebrow twitched,"Yeah...me too."
Walking out of the Pokemon center together, Chide was awake and alert.
Smiling, Kit patted the big Pokemon's side, "Chide should be able to track her by scent, we'll find her in no time."
Izzy nodded. "Okay, but I think we should walk,not fly"
Kit, who was already half on, gave her a weird look. "Why? Scared?"
The Blue haired trainer glared, "No!" "I just think that she'll listen to us more if we walk up to her, not land on top of her."
Kit snorted, "Whatever, okay Chide, find Yua! Come back to us when you spot her."
With a small roar, the Charizard took one leap and un-furled its wings, speeding off.
"We should hurry, it won't take him long."
"Okay"
The two took off at a fast walk, talking and getting to know each, and soon were chatting like good friends. The only problem was the subject of Pokemon itself. When THAT came up, you could almost see the sparks that would fly, but they would deal with that later. Now they had a common goal, and they were gonna see it to the end,whether Yua liked it or not.
