For the love of a game.

Chapter 3

Emma pov

Jason rode on my back as we ran into the city. Judging by the fact I hadn't run into trouble with Officer Jenny when I got there, Ash was already here. Sure enough, when I arrived, the black haired boy was sitting in the waiting room.

I chose to ignore him for now in favor of getting the pidgey looked at. I walked up to the front desk. "Excuse me, could I get some help?" Nurse joy, not the one from when I woke up, turned and smiled. "Yes?" I gently placed the pidgey on the desk. "My partner and I were on our way here and spotted this little guy. I think he needs help."

There was a bustle to get the little bird to a healing room. I went to sit in a chair with Jason resting in my arms. I thought back to what I had seen Gary do and how I had just covered for him. -Emma? Why cover for that guy? Why not tell them what really happened? - I sighed "I can't mess up his story. He'll learn soon just how important his Pokémon are…."

Ash pov

I watched as the girl across from me. She must have been one of the ones that got to Professor Oak's lab before me. Her Charizard sat next to her looking at her with a worried expression. I stood up and went to talk to her. "Hi, I'm Ash. What's your name?" she looked up "I'm Emma."
