A Bright Future
Ch.3
Work. David had entirely forgotten about work at this point and hustled about preparing himself. Just as he ran down the stairs for the last time, he said "would you come To work with me Ralts? I'm sure nobody would mind you around the Pokemon center where i work.". Ralts' face lit up with excitement saying "Yes!" Telepathically.
Ralts climbed onto David's shoulder and they took a quick walk to the Pokemon center when David said "Hey Ralts, would you like to join me on a journey around the Hoenn region?". A huge smile formed along her face as she said "yes, i've been hoping you would ask" as she hugged his head.
David pulled out the pokeball he had received earlier and put it close to the Ralts on his shoulder. "Just push the circle on the center and i'll let you right out" he said as the small Pokemon did just that. after the ball made a 'ding' noise David let the Ralts back out onto his shoulder and asked "what would you like your name to be?". She thought for a few seconds and then exclaimed "Amy!". "Alright, Amy it is then" he said with a pleasant smile.
They walked together the rest of the way both with smiles plastered on their faces.
"HAPPY BIRTHDAY DAVID!" everyone in the Pokemon center screamed in unison. Amy nearly fell off of David's shoulder, not nearly ready for the surprise they had given. David laughed and smiled at Amy's reaction while friends and coworkers gathered around him giving him hugs and small gifts. Amy looked confused and asked "what are they doing?"
"These are my friends so they are giving me gifts to celebrate my birthday" he said to Amy quietly as most of the group had dissipated back to their duties. " I think I understand now" Amy said giving David a smile.
David headed to his station, which was not busy at this time of day and decided he would tell his boss of his decision.
" Hey Daryl" David said inquisitively
" Yeah whats up man?" Daryl said calmly
" I think i'm going to have to resign"David said sadly
" I understand, you've become an age where you are allowed to see the world" he paused to see Amy "and by the looks of it that ralts is going with you" he said with a warm smile
"Yep, that about sums it up. Will the center be alright without me?" David asked
"It'll be fine, i was kinda planning on this so i had a rookie trained for your position" Daryl said as he sat back in his chair and smiled
"Awesome, thank you" David said gladly
"Hey!... come back and see us sometime" Daryl said waving good bye to David and his Ralts.
" Yeah, ill see you around" he said as Amy waved and the two left the room.
"Good, I was worried about that" he said to Amy who smiled back at him.
