(.Episode Two: Crabby Old Man!.)
Previously
"Nicole you go first." Professor Oak said, oblivious to the three twelve year olds' exasperation. Nicole pondered for a moment. Should she choose a random number or pick a more sensible number like five?
"One." Was Nicole's prompt answer. Tyler sweatdropped and Gary rolled her eyes. She was going to last for sure. Professor Oak nodded and turned to the two boys. He seemed to ponder over who would go first...
"Okay Tyler, your birthday comes before Gary's. Which number do you choose?" He asked Tyler. Tyler thought over it quickly, not knowing which number he would choose... one thing's for sure though. He was NOT going to choose a number like Nicole's.
"I pick seven." He answered. Professor Oak, like he had done to Nicole, nodded and turned to his grandson who stood with a bored expression etched on his face. Gary thought for a moment.
"I pick five." Gary suddenly announced. Professor Oak nodded once more then walked back in front of a table the three preteens just now noticed. On the table sat three different colored poke-balls, each one having a white bottom.
The first one had a light green top with a darker green leaf symbol engraved. The one in the middle was red with a darker red flame symbol engraved on the top. The last one was light blue with a darker blue tear drop symbol engraved on the top.
"The number I chose is one. Nicole goes first." Professor Oak said.
Well that was unexpected.
Present
"I pick Bulbasaur!" Nicole answered immediatly.
Professor Oak smiled and handed her the green colored Poke Ball. Nicole accepted it, a large smile on her face. Professor Oak turned to Gary.
"Squirtle." Gary said promptly.
Professor Oak handed his grandson the bue Poke Ball and Tyler the red Poke Ball. He then pulled out three, small, rectangular devices of pink, black and the typical red.
"This is a PokeDex," Professor Oak began as he held up the light pink PokeDex, "It's a small, computerized encyclopedia. It'll keep track of the Pokemon you'll encounter. However, to get all the data, you must capture the Pokemon. It was once my dream to capture all the Pokemon in the world... but I'm too old now. So Nicole, Gary and Tyler, you three will travel together and-"
"I'm sorry Professor, I must've had something in my ear. Could you repeat that last part again?" Nicole asked, smiling sweetly yet her right eye was twitching. No way, there was no way in hell that he just said-
"You, Gary, and Tyler will travel together and-"
"NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!"

"Pesky girl."
"YOU BUTTHEAD!"
Tyler sighed. It's only been three minutes and twenty eight seconds and the two were arguing already. He trudged ahead, and pulled out his red PokeDex. He stared at the object in his hand for a few seconds before slipping it back into one of his vest pockets.
"Hey guys! I see Viridian City up ahead." Tyler called over his shoulder to his two, bickering friends. They stopped their arguing and looked up to see the fairly large city coming into view.
-
"BACK, YOU HOOLIGANS! BACK!" The balding, old man on his back roared as he pounded the ground with his fists, looking like an overgrown, wrinkly, three year old having a tantrum.
Gary rolled his wolf like eyes and walked ahead, only to be tripped by the old man and stumbled slightly as Tyler sweatdropped. Nicole stiffled back her laughter. Ha. Ha ha. HAHAHAHA! Okay, I'm done.
"Oh daddy..." A young woman sighed as she jogged towards the screeching man. Her light blonde hair was pulled up into a messy bun with a sky blue jaw clip. Her pale blue eyes showed distressed as she tugged at her cotton shirt nervously.
"Daddy, please let these two trainers pass." The woman pleaded, the man howled in response.
"I WANT MY COFFEE!" He cried as rolled around, curled into the fetal position.
"But daddy, we're out of coffee, the mart is out of coffee and won't be getting anymore until noon." The woman sighed as she shot an apologetic look to Gary and Nicole.
"COFFEE!" Was all the man said before he suddenly went limp with unconciousness. Nicole stared, alarmed. Was he... dead?
"Oh, don't worry about him. He just fell asleep. But I can't move him until he gets his coffee..." The woman sighed once more.
"Don't worry about it! We'll just go the mart and get some supplies."
-
"Hey, did you three come from Pallet?" The clerk asked as she scanned the items they had purchased.
"Yes." Tyler answered as he handed her the money.
"Could you take this parcel back to Professor Oak? It just arrived with the coffee." The clerk said as she pulled a small box from under the counter top.
"Sure!" Nicole answered as she took hold of the box.
-
"Hey Professor!" Nicole exclaimed as she pounded into the lab, startling Professor Oak.
"Oh, hello! What are you three doing back so soon?" He asked curiously.
"This package came in for you." Tyler answered as he handed the gray haired man the parcel.
"Ah, this reminds me, I forgot to give you your Poke Balls." The Professor laughed merrily as the three trainers sweatdropped. Ho boy.
"Here you go." He said cheerfully as he handed each of them five, small spherical objects. They were each about the size of a ping-pong ball and were red on the top and white on the bottom. They had a button on the center, mostly likely to enlarge and minimize them.
Thanking him and walking out the door, they slipped the Poke Balls into their bags.
-
"Hey, there's the lady and that old man." Nicole said as she ran ahead the two boys.
The blond lady was standing in front of a decent sized house and her father was sitting on the ground beside her, happily drinking a cup of coffee.
"Hi there! I wanted to apologize for my daddy's behavior and wanted to give you these." The woman said as she reached into her jean pocket and pulled out three, small, orange and yellow cubes that had a red button on the side.
She handed them to Nicole who, being the curious person she is, pressed each of the red buttons before the woman could warn her. They immediatly enlarged into a small T.V. Nicole's knees began to buckle under the sudden weight and she would've collapsed if not Gary and Tyler hurriedly grabbed on of their own. Minimizing them, they turned to the woman.
"Those are Teachy T.V.s. They teach you the basics about Pokemon training." The woman explained.
After thanking the woman, they walked up ahead and saw the dark entrance of Viridian Forest coming into view.
"Wow... it sure looks dark." Nicole mumbled to herself nervously.
"Scared?" Gary sneered and Nicole puffed out her cheeks in response.
"Bah, you wish! I'll show you. Bnyeeh!" Nicole stuck her tongue out at the brunnete before running into the entrance.
Three... two... one...
A loud shriek filled the air. Tyler sweatdropped as Gary rolled his eyes. They walked into the entrance
End
Wow, that was incrediably short... and crappy.
Blaze (The Torchic): Amen to that!
