Chapter 61: The ticket

I was back in New Bark Town, now a Champion. "My sweetie! I am so proud of you!" shouted Mum waking me up. "Professor Elm and Kris are downstairs to give you their congratulations!"

I went down the stairs and sure enough, my mentor and best friend were waiting for me. "ETHAN!" shouted Kris, giving me a hug so hard I was scared she might suffocate me. "My bestie is Champion! I can't believe this!" She looked kind of sad. "You will still visit won't you?" I of course said yes.

Professor Elm started up. "Ethan, this is an honour. You have bested Lance and taken his place. So, what are your plans?" That made me go silent. I didn't know.

I decided to sit by the sea with Kris later that day, discussing my adventure. Kris had been busy to. "We have recently bred some new Pokémon. Pop in and check them out when you have a free minute!" She could see through me, however. "You're lost aren't you". She stood up and picked up a small stone. "Adventure is always a stones throw away!" She threw the stone across the water edge, but it fell to the bottom with a plop. "Why have I never been able to do that?" she asked.

Suddenly, the sea started glowing with multiple Pokémon which seemed to have two lightbulbs coming from out their heads.

It shoots positive and negative electricity between the tops of its two antennae and zaps its enemies.

"Wow! Those are beautiful!" Kris said. As she said this, I took out the envelope that Professor Elm gave me. Inside it were tickets for the… SS AQUA!

"No!" Kris shouted in amazement. "That's the boat to Vermillion City! Ethan! You can take on the Gyms of Kanto! This is amazing! We have to tell your Mum!"

We pretty much sprinted back to my house to tell Mum and thank Professor Elm. "The SS Aqua?! Ethan, this is huge" Mum said. "But you've just got back. Don't you think-"She saw the excitement in my eyes. "Actually, go on a new adventure! Kanto is waiting for you!"

"The ship is departing from Olivine City tomorrow" Professor Elm noted. "It departs at 9am in the morning so you better Fly over there early." I was now excited.

As the sun set, Kris needed to leave. "Kris, I would love to go to. But aside from there being one ticket, this is your journey. Plus, looking after Baby Pokémon is a huge duty. Thank you." Before she went off, she gave me a small peck on the cheek. Blushing, she ran off.

I went to bed early that night. It would be an early start tomorrow.
