New Trainer Shiro
As I stare at the two strange white and red balls I now hold in my hand I find myself almost remembering two familiar yet strange faces. Their faces though I find is blurred and hidden from me, just like a lot of my memories since that are over six months old. I feel a frown come to my face as I only half listened to the Professor as I allow my thoughts to wash over me and the true hidden reason of why I wanted to become a Pokémon trainer came to the front of my mind.
'Together we are going to discover just who I really am' I thought silently as I continue to stare at the two Pokeballs. 'And we are going to find our place in this big world and work out just what happened to me...I cannot ignore the feeling as if someone is desperately searching for me...I need to know-"
"Shiro? Are you listening?" the Professor suddenly asks me, I find my attention suddenly snapping to the young purple haired woman standing in front of me. "You do realise how rare it is for a new trainer as yourself to start off with two Pokémon, right? And that you need to-"
"I know Professor but do not worry at all," I tell her with what I guessed was one of my normal light hearted smiles. "With Kuroh and Neko at my side everything will be alright, we will look after each other. Besides I have learnt so much from you and the girls, and I promise to keep in contact with you, and do so often."
"Kuroh and Neko?" The Professor says to me as she raised her eyebrow, I could not help myself but to let out a sheepish laugh.
"Strange nicknames for Pokémon, and foreign sounding too I know but for some reason they just sound right," I tell her only to find myself feeling as if I am remember a pair of extremely close friends. "I...I feel like I know two people who are called Kuroh and Neko...I feel as if Kuroh is a dog while Neko is a cat. I do not know why but with this Kuroh being a Growlithe and this Neko being a Meowth it just seems...right."
"It sounds like your memories are starting to revile themselves," the Professor tells me and I let out a soft hum of agreement. "Shiro...that day I and my girls found you...you were burnt pretty badly, you had a very bad injury to your chest and we were not sure if you were going to make it...I do not know what happened and maybe we will never know but maybe-"
"It is alright Professor Ivy," I say with a calm and understanding smile on my face. "I feel as if...no, I know that if I find the real Kuroh and Neko they will protect me and not let me out of their sight. Something about them just calls out to me..."
"Calls out to you?"
I happily nod my head. "Yup, it is almost like the feeling you get when you truly come home and you are surrounded by those you can trust with your life...I want to find them, I want to feel this warm feeling inside of me all the time...and both Kuroh and Neko are the source for me...they...they are...clansmen and so much more."
