Chloe's POV:
Today, Chloe was going to school, when she was joined by her childhood friend, Goh. Since today was an exam day, Goh had to go back to school to take it, so he would be joining Chloe today instead of going on any crazy adventures with Ash. Goh and Chloe put on their school uniforms, and when outside, they waved goodbye to Ash and Chloe's Father. "Goh! You look good in that uniform!" Ash said to Goh. "Yeah? Well, I look good in everything, you know!" Goh said, trying to look good in front of Ash. "Let's get going already" Chloe told Goh, having no time for his casual flirting with Ash. "I'm off" Goh sadly waved goodbye to Ash, as he and Chloe went to school. "I really wish he loved me the same way I love him..." Goh told Chloe, sighing. "Goh, can we talk about this another time?" Chloe told Goh, not wanting to get involved his love affairs with Ash. "Of course, you've never been in love" Goh told Chloe. "What's that supposed to mean?" Chloe asked Goh. "You haven't met a cute boy you love yet, you don't know how I feel!" Goh told her. "Who said I'm into boys?" Chloe yelled at him. "Wait, you're not?" Goh asked. "Oh.. um- I.." Chloe said, wishing she could take back what she just said. "Are you a lesbian?" Goh asked her, curious. "What? Um- no! Of course not!" Chloe said, trying to hide it. "Come on, there's nothing wrong with it! You know that I'm gay, and you don't judge!" Goh told her. "...fine. I am a lesbian. You're the first person to know.." Chloe came out to her friend. "Are there any girls you've found cute? That you like?" Goh asked her. "Not yet... I really hope someday I meet my own 'Ash' like you did.." Chloe said, jealous of him. "I hope so too" Goh told her, as they made their way to their school. While Chloe was writing her exam, suddenly she heard barking from the window. She looked over, and for some reason her own Yamper was there. "Miss!" Chloe called the teacher. "What is it? Chloe?" The teacher asked. "Ah, uh, um, dad's, uh, yam..." She said, fumbling over her own words from embarrassment when she realized everyone in the class was staring at her. "Oh! Well, hurry back!" The teacher gave her permission to leave. "Yamper? What's wrong?" Chloe said, when she got to where Yamper was. Yamper started walking towards the garden, and Chloe followed it. She saw something shaking in the bushes. She kneeled down, and an Eevee jumped out! She and it stared at each other for a while, not saying or doing anything. Suddenly, Chloe saw two strange people walking around with a net. "Where's that Eevee..?!" One of them asked. "Once we find her, she's not getting away again!" The other said. Chloe grabbed Eevee in her arms, and sneaked around with it, hiding from the mysterious people. In order to help herself and Eevee hide, she had to call for backup. "What is it Chloe? Why'd you call me out here?" Goh asked her, when he arrived. Chloe shushed him. "Yamper? An Eevee?!" Goh said, surprised. "That's why I went, shh! Shh!" Chloe said, shushing him. "Sorry. But why do you have an Eevee, Chloe?" Goh asked. "Eevee's an amazing Pokemon, with 8 different evolutions!" Goh said, his eyes sparkling. "Eight? That is amazing!" Chloe said, impressed. "So, why are you hiding?" He asked her. "It looks like she's being chased!" Chloe told him. "By them!" She said, as soon as she saw the mysterious people from behind Goh. "Yeah... They do look suspicious..." Goh said. "Got it. I'll do something about them. Chloe, you run when you get the chance!" Goh said, as he ran over to distract the mysterious people. "Let's go, Yamper" Chloe said, as she made a run for it. "There she is, Eevee!" She heard one of them say. She started sprinting faster, clenching Eevee in her arms. Goh jumped in and grabbed them, stopping them from catching Chloe. "You make a run for it, Chloe!" He shouted. "Thank you!" She said as she ran away. As she ran, Goh and the mysterious people followed close behind her. Eventually, she found herself in front of Team Rocket, who had captured all the Pokemon at the School Playground, including Goh's. "You're not getting away!" "Hand over Eevee!" The people behind her said. She and Goh were trapped. "We will not!" Chloe told them. "Yeah! We're not letting bad guys like you take this Eevee!" Goh added. "Oh no! We're not the bad guys! We're researchers from the Eevee Evolution Laboratory!" They told her. "The Eevee Evolution Laboratory?" Chloe asked. "Hey! Goh! Chloe! Are you there?!" A voice called out. It was Ash. "Ash?" Goh said, searching around. They then saw that his voice was coming from a hole behind Team Rocket, who presumably trapped him in it. Team Rocket sent out a Pelliper, and Chloe's Yamper stepped in to fight it. "Yamper, use Spark!" Chloe said, as Yamper used it's super effective move on Pelliper. Suddenly, Eevee jumped from Chloe's arms, and landed next to Yamper. Yamper used Spark, and Eevee.. also used Spark? What? They both used it at the same time, knocking out Pelliper, and making Team Rocket blast off again. Afterwards, Ash managed to climb out of the hole he had been trapped in, and everyone went to the Cerise Laboratory. "We're very sorry for everything" the researchers apologized. "Oh, don't worry, it seems these two misunderstood what was going on" Cerise said, apologizing in behalf of his daughter and Goh. "We'll be off then" the researchers said, taking away Eevee. However, Eevee leapt from their grasp, and ran to Chloe. "This Eevee really loves Chloe, huh?" Ash said. "It appears so" the researchers said. "Hey Chloe, if you wouldn't mind, do you think you could look after Eevee?" The researcher asked her. "If you say it's okay!" Chloe said, smiling, holding Eevee in her hands. "So your first catch is an Eevee, huh?" Goh asked her. Goh then handed her a Pokeball, and Chloe caught her first Pokemon, Eevee. They then went inside the lab, where Chloe's dad gifted her with a Rotom Phone. It had a pink case, unlike Ash and Goh's Rotom Phones, which had orange cases. Chloe looked at her newly caught Pokemon as it was playing with the other Pokemon, and she smiled.
