Chapter 3 the meeting

Leon Nolan ran through the dense bushes Of Route 30*, rushing through without any sign of hesitation as he came nearer and nearer to his goal: New bark town. He had to reach it before his father did or there would be no chance of fulfilling his dream of becoming a trainer. 'Almost at Cherrygrove' Leon thought as he kept on running, some of his dark blue hair getting onto his cold Grey eyes, quickly he swiped the stray strands away and carried on running, he couldn't stop now, he had to reach Cherrygrove...

Then Leon smirked; he could see the entrance nearby, so without thinking he ran into the arch of the entrance, and out into Cherrygrove City. Leon rested his hands on his knees and looked at the ground as he fought to get his breath back. 'I can't stop now! I have to get to New Bark Town and fast!' Leon stood up shakily and began walking to the other side of town but was suddenly stopped by a small hand on his shoulder. "What!" Leon barked coldly as he spun around, only to see the worried and hurt face of an old man. "I'm sorry I was only going to ask if you were new and wanted a tour..." the old mans stuttered. Leon's face softened slightly and sighed.

"Yeah, I'm new here, but I'm on my way to New bark town to get My Pokemon, so not right now..." The old man nodded in understanding as he thought about this, then his bright blue eyes lit up in enthusiasm. "I know! How about I give you a lift to New Bark Town, seen as your new and all..." Leon sighed, then thought about the old man's offer, it saved him walking anymore, he was tired as it was, but the downside was he might have to talk to the old man.

Leon decided it would be worth it.

"Alright..." The old man nodded happily and went over to his car, it was pretty old and beat up, but Leon supposed it was better than walking... "Get in Get in!" Leon nodded and slipped his thin form into the passenger seat, as the old man started the engine. "So what's your name young man?" the old man asked "I'm called Edward, but everyone calls me Eddy". Leon nodded.

"My name is Leon, I'm from...Violet City..." Eddy nodded as he swerved around a corner. And drove up to the entrance to New Bark Town. "Violet City Heh? Nice place I've heard, not that I've been, I've lived In Cherrygrove my whole life" Leon just nodded disinterested with the current conversation.

"Ah here we are! New Bark Town" Eddy said, stating the obvious as he drove next to Professor Elm's Lab. "Here you go! When you get your Pokemon, you have to come back to Cherrygrove, so I'll see you there to give you a tour" Leon nodded as he got out and shut the door. "Thanks." Eddy nodded before his wrinkled old face split into a grin.

"Good luck" Then Eddy turned his car around and drove back down the dirt path to Cherrygrove City. Leon sighed that old man was way too energetic for his own good. 'Now to get my Pokemon...If my father isn't here already' Leon scanned the area surrounding Professor Elm's lab, there were a few teenagers queuing up to get their Pokemon but there was no sign of any adults. 'So far so good...' then Leon began walking towards the Lab...

"Justin? Justin wakes up! JUSTIN!" Justin leapt a foot out of bed as his younger sister Alex, screamed in his ear. "Finally! I thought I'd have to pour water over you before you got up!" Justin groaned and sighed, as his heartbeat began to return to normal. "Whatever, what time is it?"

Alex grinned mischievously, her purple hair falling into her bright blue eyes. "It's just after 9:30 am, mom told me to wake you" Justin nodded and yawned before stretching and scratching the back of his neck. "Okay I'm up, leave Alex I need to get dressed" Alex nodded and pulled off a mock salute before turning 180 degrees and marching out of the groom with a sarcastic "Yes sir!" before she closed the door.

Justin grinned, he knew his sister was trying to play with him until he left, even she, who never let anything get her down, was saddened by the fact he was leaving. Justin got up before changing into a dark blue T- shirt, a black Jacket that went down to his ankles and a pair of denim Jeans. Justin smiled as he brushed his black hair, letting some fall into his green eyes. "Well" Justin sighed staring at himself "There's no turning back now, I'm gonna aim to be the best, no matter what" the black haired boy smiled before grabbing his bag and walking down the stairs.

"Happy birthday honey!" Justin's mom Ruby called before pulling her son into a big hug and kissing his forehead, her bright green eyes twinkling in amusement as Justin tried to squirm out of her grip. "Mom!" Justin moaned blushing while Alex snickered.

"Come on Birthday boy it's not that bad!" Alex teased before she bounced over and jumped on Justin's back, knocking the wind out of him. "To the presents!" The purple haired girl cried pointing to the table where all the presents were stacked. Justin grinned, getting his breath back and walked over, Alex in tow. "Okay brat get off me so I can open them" Alex shrugged and jumped off.

"Okay but you open MY present first!" His sister cried pointing at the large package on the table. Justin nodded and reached for it before ripping away at the wrapping paper. "Wha-?" Alex smiled sadly as Justin stared at the leather bound album.

"It's a photo album, it has all of our pictures of us, from when we were younger, so you won't forget us" Justin turned to his sister who had tears brimming in her eyes and Justin swooped down and hugged her. "How can a forget a sister like you?" Alex nodded and wiped her tears away, a sad smile still on her face.

"Thanks sis..." Justin smiled and opened it, looking at the picture of him and his sister, hugging their dad when they were about 4 or 5, "It's great" Alex smiled, and nodded. Ruby moved forward after this and smiled, picking up a small present off the table and handing it to him. "Here this is for you, it used to be your fathers, I've had it fixed and updated for you..." Justin nodded and ripped off the paper to find a pokegear, gleaming and shiny, just like brand new. "Mom...thanks" Ruby nodded and smiled in understanding as Justin strapped it on his wrist; there were just some types of love that didn't need to be said or shown in any physical way, it was just there in a silent passing between the mother and son.

"Come on Bro! Open the rest of your presents! You still have to get your Pokemon yet!" Alex cried. Justin nodded and reached for another parcel and smiled, he couldn't wait...

Leon walked over to the back of the queue and waited all of the other teenagers waiting excitedly to receive their Pokemon. Leon rolled his eyes. 'Idiots, it's only a Pokemon...' Leon sighed, Just as someone knocked into him. "Hey Watch where you're going!" Leon snapped without thinking, or looking at who knocked him. Leon looked up into the greenest eyes he'd ever seen Leon blinked and scowled, wiping that thought away instantly.

"Sorry! I didn't see you..." The boy replied before holding out his hand for Leon to take. Leon ignored it and got up from the floor on his own, before brushing himself down. "Whatever..." The boy withdrew his hand slightly hurt, his eye's downcast and Leon felt just a little bit guilty for snapping at him. "Who are you?" Leon asked. The boy's eyes snapped up and looked at Leon almost shyly. "I...I'm Justin" Leon almost smiled at the blush that was creeping up on the boy's face.

"I'm Leon" Leon hesitantly held out his hand for Justin to shake. 'I need to get used to this, I'm not exactly the most approachable person in the world' He thought. Justin smiled and took it instantly. "Nice to meet you, so, what Pokemon are you going to get?" Leon blinked and sighed thinking about this before he shrugged. "...I...I haven't really thought about that" Justin blinked and shrugged, nudging the pack on his shoulders.

"I have, but it's so hard to decide, I'm stuck between Totodile and Cyndiquil" Justin sighed and nudged the dirt with his trainers. "I'm going to take forever to decide" Leon shrugged walking forward a little more as the line shortened. "Which Pokemon are you going to choose?"

Leon shrugged, wanting to be left alone right now 'Won't he just go? What does he want from me? He doesn't even know me for god's sake!' "I don't know and right now I don't care, what do you want from me anyway?" Leon asked his grey eyes burning into Justin's. Justin blinked and sighed sadly.

"I just wanted to talk to you, your new here, so I thought...never mind, it doesn't matter" Justin turned away and moved on ahead. Leon sighed watching him go, feeling really guilty. /It's not HIS fault your dad screwed you life up! / His mind screamed at him, making Leon wince mentally. /Maybe he doesn't want anything from you! Maybe HE just want's to be your friend? / Leon's eyes widened. Him? Have a friend? Like Justin?

Suddenly Leon smiled a real smile, it wasn't a big smile but it was better than nothing... 'Maybe... maybe that wouldn't be so bad after all...
