The waves beat against the side of the Dragonship Destiny, as it slipped smoothly along the sea. Leaning against the railing, Ash Ketchum looked out at the horizon, holding the wireless phone to his ear. "Yes, Professor Birch. We're nearly there." he said, "It'll be an hour or so before we get to Littleroot. The phone is starting to go out. We'll see you then."
Ash turned the phone off, and went down into the ship to put it away, followed by the very hyper Amber. "Hi, Ash!"
Jean smiled at him. "Hi, Jean. Where is everyone?" Ash asked, setting the phone on a small corner table.
"Everyone is in the dinning room. I think May is in her room though."
"Thanks." Ash knocked on the door gently, before entering, "Whatcha doing?"
"I'm trying to find where the Starter Pokemon are at." May looked up at him, frowning. Ash sat down next to her, glancing at the page. A picture of a Trapinch was on the page. He sighed. Amber peered up at him, her mouth slightly open.
"May, you are way too far into the book for the Starter Pokemon. They are back here..." Ash flipped the book back to page 5, where there was three pokemon-Treecko, Torchic, and Mudkip. The evolutions of the three were next to them on the page.
"Is...Grovyle...a Starter?" May asked, pointing at the Gecko-like pokemon picture. Ash laughed slightly, smiling.
"No, no...Treecko is, then he evolves into Grovyle," he said. May looked at Ash, frowning.
"I haven't even gotten my license yet, and I'm already failing as a trainer." Millenia choose at that time to release herself from her pokeball, sitting at the end of the bed. "I'll never be able to be a decent trainer to any pokemon."
"You'll do fine. You think you're doing bad? I starting my Pokemon Training by sleeping in the day I was suppose to get my Starter, then I ended up getting attacked by a pack of Spearow because I threw a rock at one." Ash smiled warmly at her. "I'll be with you the whole way."
"Thanks, Ash,"

"In this pokeball is torchic, treecko is in the second, and mudkip in the third," Professor Birch said, pointing out the three pokeballs. May looked at Ash, who was leaning against the wall and watching them quietly. He nodded toward the poster of the three starters and their evolutions.
"Grovyle evolves from treecko...I want a treecko," she said. Birch took the pokeball holding the Grass-type pokemon, and gave it to May. She let Treecko out, as a kid walked in.
"Hello, Mr. Ketchum," the boy said, looking at Ash.
"Hello, Brendan. How is you mudkip doing?" he asked, smiling. Brendan smiled.
"He evolved into swampert last week." Brendan looked at May, who was hugging her new treecko excitedly. Ash frowned at her.
"May, unless you want to kill treecko, loosen up." Ash said, "Professor Birch, are there the same Gym Leaders as before, or no?"
"They are the same," Birch said, "Their pokemon might be a bit stronger then when you fought them, but pretty much they have the same teams and everything."
"Thanks. We should try to get to the first town before night time, May. We'll need to get some stuff there soon too..."
"Will I be able to catch any pokemon?" May asked. Ash smiled, pushing himself off the wall.
"Sure can...May?" Ash looked around. May had disappeared. Brendan and Birch were near laughing.
"The minute the word 'sure' came out of your mouth, she ran out. Ain't excited, is she?" Brendan laughed. Ash sighed, and shook his head.
"I better go catch up. May has no clue on how to battle with a pokemon."

"May...MAY!" Ash looked around, searching around outside of Littleroot for May. Any trainer he asked said the same thing; they hadn't seen her. "That wasn't a good time to run off..."
"Treecko...um, attack it?"
Ash peeked around a tree, and saw May looked down at treecko uncertainly. A zigzagoon was standing in front of treecko, waiting to attack. "Try Pound," he said.
She turned and looked at him. "Pound?"
Treecko jumped at the zizagoon, hitting it full on. Squealing, zizagoon fell a few feet away, before tackling treecko. "Treeee!" treecko yelled, smashing into the zizagoon.
"Ziiiiizaaaaa," the weakened pokemon wimpered. May looked at Ash, who smiled and took out a red and white pokeball.
"Catch." He tossed it to her. May looked at it, before giving Ash a strange look. "Throw it at the zizagoon."
"Oh...right!" She tossed the pokeball. Zizagoon was sucked into the orb, as it wobbled on the ground wildly. With a click, the pokeball went still. "Did I catch it?"
"I'd say you did, by the fact that zizagoon didn't escape form the pokeball." May picked up the now still pokeball. Ash dug in his jacket's pockets for another pokeball, but found none. "I'm out. You'll have to wait until we get to Oldale Town to catch more pokemon."
"Chaa." Amber had walked over to treecko, and started what looked like a conversation. Ash walked away from the tree, smiling.
"Shall we continue onto Oldale?" he asked. May smiled.
"Why not?"

This was chapter one! It might take longer then I thought because A)I'm on semi-writers block and B) I have the sequel to Shadow League to do also. XD
