Prologue: The Journey

Another morning has come.. the dawn of another day on the journey. The warm light shines through the thick forest canopy, telling the traveler that it's time to rise, to continue on his path.

The camp has been packed up, and the traveler has once again set off. His company is the sun on his back, which grows somewhat warm due to his black shirt trapping heat close to his body and the wind that sweeps through branches, blowing his short, black hair around softly. The soft cries of "Pidgey!" fill the forest, but the he pays it no mind.. yes, just another day on the journey.

His black and red sneaker clad footsteps are soft as he keeps walking, making his way over the rich earth, which is sparsely covered with grass. Large caterpillar like creatures, one of green and one yellow, with a large spike upon their head are all around, minding their own business, but at times they glance at the new being within their forest domain, but they then go back to their own concerns, paying the traveler no more mind. Yes, for them all, it's just another day on the journey.

The traveler sighs as his dull, green eyes look about, finding nothing much of interest.. but they he's stopped as a child clad in shorts, a T-shirt and carrying a net appears before him. He smiles, and then points the net at our traveler, and speaks;

"Hi. I'm James. I just caught some new bugs, would you like to battle them?"

Our traveler grins slightly, his eyes taking on a cold gleam. The child, somewhat unnerved by this, lowers his net. Our traveler drops a duffel-bag, removes his backpack and pulls something from a pocket. With the tap of a small button, the object expands, forming a ball of red and white. Casting aside the pack, he speaks;

"Alright then, kid. Let's see if you have any skill with freshly caught Pokemon.."

With that, our traveler tosses the ball...

Yes indeed.. it's just another day on the journey...
