The New Trainer

It was a sunny morning at New Bark Town, inside of a peach-colored, two stories house was a girl of the age of 12 getting dressed. She wore a white jacket with two blue stripes on her sleeves with a small black shirt underneath, white pants that reached her knees, white sneakers, and a white cap on her head. She tied her shoulder-length hair into two pigtails in the back of her head and spread them out near her shoulders.

She looked herself in her mirror that was hanging on her wall in her bedroom and walked out of her bedroom. She went down the stairs slowly and entered the living room to see her mom sitting at the table waiting. Her mother turned her head and smiled at her. "Oh, Crystal, Professor Elm called. He wants to meet you at his lab and he said it was important." She said to her.

Her mom had black, shoulder-length hair as it was held back by her pink hair band and she wore a pink pinafore with pink high heels. Crystal smiled as she said, "Thanks. I'm off to the lab!" She was about to run until her mom stopped her.

"Wait a minute! I also forgot that your Pokegear came back from the shop." She said as she handed her a big blue backpack. "It got a phone, but I didn't get the map and the radio because it was expensive." She said as Crystal put the backpack on. "Don't worry. I'm just going over to the lab. Bye, mom." She said as she ran out with her mom waving at her.

Crystal ran on and on through the small town to a big famous building of Professor Elm. She walked inside and saw aides checked big machines along the walls. She walked straight until she saw a man sat in front of a small computer typing something. "Professor Elm?" she called as she stopped in front of his desk.

"Huh? Oh, Crystal, how glad to see you." He said as he got off the chair and walked around the desk. "So, what's going on, professor?" she asked him curiously. "Well, I just received some really important information from Mr. Pokemon about his big discovery today." He explained in a simple manner. "So, what did you call me for?" she asked. "I called you to see the big discovery and see what it could be. It may educate you on simple Pokemon business." He said as adjust his glasses.

As they stood waiting, a girl of 13 came and rushes into the lab. She stopped in front of them while panting. She had long blonde hair to her waist and had blue eyes as she wore green overalls with a white shirt underneath and a green baseball cap. "Professor, I got Mr. Pokemon's big discovery." She said as she opened her pink backpack.

"Really, let's see." He said as she held out a big, blue spotted egg. He looked at it closer and gasped. "This? This is a big discovery after all." He exclaimed as he examined the egg. "He said that an old daycare couple found that egg floating in their backyard pool. They forgot who's owner it was." She said as she shrugged her shoulders.

He picked up the egg from her hands and said, "Thanks, Janet." Janet smiled as she ran out of the lab in a flash. He turned around and to see Crystal look at the egg with curiosity. "Wow, that's a real Pokemon egg." She said in amazement. "Yes, it is. You like to see it?" he asked her. She nodded as he handed the egg to her. As she held the egg in her hands, the egg suddenly glowed light blue. Professor Elm took a step back in surprise as Crystal put it down on the ground and slowly walked back.

As it glowed brighter, the egg shook hard as the light grew brighter and brighter. When the whole room was lit up, the egg's shell started to crack and tore open. They covered their eyes from the light until the light went down slowly. As the light disappeared, they looked at each other and looked down on the ground. On the ground was a blue mouse playing with a part of the shell with its paws.

Crystal looked at it in awed and walked over to it. "Aww, it's adorable!" she exclaimed as she looked at it. Professor Elm walked over to it and examined it. "My, it's true. Pokemon are born from eggs! This might lead up to the mystery of evolution. Let's see what kind it is." He said as he took out a small device from his pocket. He bended down and examined it.

Crystal giggled at the little mouse as it tried to walk. "Ah, here it is. It's a Marill, a small water mouse that has its fur repel water when it is in the water. It's a water-type pokemon, also." He looked from his device and looked at Crystal and Marill playing red hands. Marill slapped her hands as it giggled cutely. Professor Elm looked surprised. "I say, I never seen a pokemon act like that when they're wild." He said as Crystal looked up.

Out of nowhere, his computer started to beep loudly. He went over and clicked his mouse. He typed some things and came over to her. "Mr. Pokemon found another egg this time today from the same daycare couple. He said it's highly important to look into this. Crystal, can you do me a favor and go to Mr. Pokemon's house and deliver the egg here?" he asked her.

She smiled as she said, "Sure." "Great! You could go easily with your pokemon with no trouble." He said as Crystal looked at Marill. "You mean Marill is my pokemon?" she asked. "Yes, since you two got a strong bond, you'll have Marill as your first pokemon. It's probably a girl since it giggles a lot." He said as he looked at Marill.

"Cool! You're my pokemon!" she exclaimed as she hugged Marill tight. "Marill Mari." It said happily. "So, Crystal, what are you going to name it?" he asked her. "Well, I think I'll name her Aqua." She said as she looked at her. "Very good, I like that name too." He said as looked at Aqua. "So, I'll better be going to Mr. Pokemon's house." She said as she walked with Aqua in her arms. "Remember, he lives on Route 30." He called out to her as she left the building.

As she left, she put Aqua down and asked her, "Do you want walk?" Aqua hopped with excitement saying "Marill Marill!" "I'll take that as a yes." She said as she giggled at her. As she was going, she saw a boy with red long hair staring through Professor Elm's window. She walked over with Aqua stood there with a confused expression.

"Excuse me, what are you doing?" she asked him as she watched him jumped. He turned around and said in a huff, "I'm doing nothing! Leave me alone!" he shoved her aside as she fell on the ground. He ran back to the window as she stood up and swept the dirt off. Aqua came over running and started yelling threats at the boy. Crystal looked down and said, "Don't worry, Aqua. He's not a trainer."

Aqua looked at her as Crystal started to walk out of New Bark Town with her little blue mouse by her side to her journey.
