A/N: Ok, lol I see that most people don't enjoy the story but hey I enjoy making it right. Maybe people won't read it, but I once read, most of the best stories are the most unpopular. I kinda believe it. Well I only got one vote and it was from a PM.

I studied the pokeballs carefully. Grass will mean I choose a new life. Fire will mean I choose a life of domination over all my troubles. Water means I choose a life of coming to peace with my demons.

After a while I come up with my decision.

"I know who I want."

"And who will that be."

"I choose... Totodile!" I said knowing the decision was clear.

"A great choice." Pro. Oak said, picking up the Pokeball. He set it gently in my hands, bowed, and backed away.

I pressed the middle seal making the ball grow. I then continued to point it at the ground. When I pressed the seal again there was a flash and looking at me with red eyes was the Totodile.

He opened his long mouth and cocked his head. The first words I ever heard from my new Pokemon came out as a soft under standing. "Toto?" His eyes held true compassion like he knew what I been through to even look at him.

I then got down on my knees and pet his soft scaly head. A small tear formed at the corner of my eye. Totodile must have saw this because he jumped into my arms and cooed. "Tooo."

"Do you want to give him a nickname?"

"Uh, sure. Let me think." I looked at him, and he stared back. After a couple minutes I came up with it. "Kyo. Do you like that name?"

"TOTO!" He said jumping in my arms. I could tell he was smiling.

"Well then I'm glad you guys are getting off to a great start." Oak said with a huge grin. "Well before you run off I have to give you some items for your journey." He turned around to his desk and grabbed a blue mini-computer looking thing and five pokeballs. He turned towards Kyo and me. "Use this to learn about the Pokemon you encounter in the wild." He gave me the Blue Mini-computer. "It's called a PokeDex. And take these to catch your first Pokemon." He handed me the Pokeballs.

I took the items carefully, trying not to brake them. I Put them in a bag I had on my side. I then bowed showing m respect. "Thank you Professor Oak."

"It's my pleasure Vahl." He returned the bow. "And Vahl?"

"Yes."

"Be careful out there."

"I will. I promise." I grabbed Kyo and I started out of the lab towards my new future.

Once outside I saw her. My mother was right there her back to me. I ran back inside the lab startling Oak.

"Vahl? What's wrong?"

"Is there a back way out the lab.?"

"Of course. But why would you need to use it?" He asked curiously.

"I have to get around my mother."

"And why is that?"

I exhaled and told him about my my mother and what she did to me.

"Oh I see. Come with me." He turned around and walked to a wall with nothing on it. He leaned forward and placed his hand on a blank part of the wall. There was the sound of wind rushing through a crack and part the blank wall pulled back and went down revealing a hidden door.

"Be safe."

"I will." And with that Kyo and I went out the door and slipped into the main route just as my mother walked into the lab.

The grass was tall and touched my hips, I couldn't see the ground. Soon I felt something brush against my leg. Kyo looked around and narrowed his eyes. Just then a rat jumped out at us. I flinched but I felt Kyo jump out of my embrace. I heard a scratching sound. When I looked up I saw Kyo standing above the rat with a content smile, like he was having fun. I pulled out the PokeDex and scanned the rat. The device told me that it is a Rattata. It also told me it hasn't been caught by me yet. I then grabbed a ball out of my bag. I tossed it at the exhausted Rattata. It hit him on the head and bounced off. The ball then opened up and a light absorbed it. I looked closer at the PokeDex and it told me the Rattata was a female. When she was in the ball I could tell she was fighting hard. It was rocking back and forth making a "BLUUM" sound. After this happened five times there was a ding and the ball stopped moving.

Quickly I picked up the ball and held it in my hands with overflowing joy. "I caught my first Pokemon in my first few minutes of being a trainer!" I exclaimed,

"Oh, that's right." I said remembering, "I have to give you a nickname." I told the ball in my hand. "Hmm. I can't think of one right now. I said with a frown on my face. "Oh well. Don't you worry girl you'll be named soon enough." I put the ball on my belt and keep on route 1 just like Falkner told me to.

I made it to CherryGrove without anymore complications. It was a beautiful city with a small beach and a couple houses. With no idea what idea to do I walked up to the mart and put my hands in my pockets. I pulled them out with only ten coins.

"I wander if I could get anything to eat with this." I said to myself, hoping it was enough. Walking in I looked for anything to eat, anything. Without seeing anything I approached the lady behind the counter. "Hi, is there anything here I can eat?" I asked her, and as if just on cue my stomach started growling.

"Oh, I see. We do, here have a look." she set out a case with all kinds of berries. What could I expect it's a poke-mart not a restaurant. All of them were under my budget, but I still didn't think they would do much for me.

"I think I might come back, if that's ok." I added quickly.

"It's perfectly fine sweetheart, come back any time you need to."

"Thank you very much." I said, and headed out the door.

Outside it was getting dark so I had to find food and someplace to sleep soon.

I decided to go back and buy the berries because they would be my only way to get food for tonight.

I walked in and went straight to the counter. "So I decided to get them." I put the ten coins on the counter.

"I'm sorry honey but a man already came and bought them."

My heart dropped. "I'm gonna starve." I said out load with out thinking. I shot my hands up to my mouth to cover it.

"What was that?" the clerk asked.

I didn't say anything I just grabbed the coins, slid them into my pockets, and started walking towards the door. My shoulders were bouncing up and down with the uneven sobs. I reached the door and when it slid open the tears poured out of my eyes. My back was at the clerk so she couldn't see my face. Walking out of the door frame I went to the side of the building and put my back on the wall. Smallfg sobs came out at first, then they were followed by faster and more aggressive. My back slid down the wall and I was holding my legs to my chest. Tears were flying out of my eyes and I couldn't stop. "Why? Why god?" I sobbed into my legs. "Why did I leave. I knew I wouldn't make it." I was just about to scream when there was a bright flash. When I looked up I say Kyo and beside him the Rattata. "What are you guys doing out here? How did you get out?" I asked wiping my tears. They didn't say anything, not even there names. All they did was walk up to me and gave me a hug. I was shocked, but then I knew what was happening. They were trying to comfort me. I could fell there true compassion for me just from there touch. "We're not eating tonight guys." I said to them, which just caused in more fits. I coughed and cried for another hour. They just hugged me. I heard the mart's door open and saw a foggy shadow. It came closer and sat beside me and my Pokemon.

"What's your story hun?" I couldn't see who it was.

I told her what happened between me and my mom, the ride over with Falkner, and the money problems.

"Ah. And these are your Pokemon?"

"Yes." I sniffed.

"Come home Vahl."

"What!?" she jumped up and who was sitting there was her mother.

"Come home baby. I miss you."

"All you want to do is hit me and make your Arbok bite me!" I was screaming and it felt so good.

"No, sweety. I swear I'll change." She look broken, she had been crying too.

"No. you go home alone."

"Vahl."

"NO! I'M TIRED OF ALL THIS! I ALL I WANT IS PEACE! IF YOU LOVE ME THAT IS WHAT I'LL GET!" I was screaming.

"But, Vahl. I do love you."

"THEN WHERE IS MY PEACE?!" My voice was making like a siren.

My mother reached to her belt and grabbed a Pokeball. I jumped at her before she could do anything. I ripped the ball out of her hands. I knew what was in it. I just stood there. Then all my rage unleashed. I clenched my hand as hard as possible around the ball. I wound my arm back and threw it at the wall with all my strength. The ball hit the wall and shattered. Because the ball never opened properly it jammed the seal making it impossible for Arbok to be summoned. In a small sphere there was a tiny purple speck in it. I walked up to it and looked my mother in her eyes.

"You loss me and your friend. You made me. Welcome to hell." I crushed the sphere. There was a hissing sound and a tear fell from my mothers eye. I grabbed my pokeballs and put my pokemon in them. I waled away from my mother with no regrets. Only peace. Behind me was a sobbing woman who lost it all, her most treasured possession around her in pieces.

I turned to the front of the mart and say the clerk walking out.

"Oh hey. You still hungry?" She asked me.

"Yes very."

"Well come with me, and also it would be a good idea to wash your face." She could tell I've been crying. I looked down with shame. "Hey it's ok, we've all been there. Come on." She led me to a house on the beach front.

Inside it smelled of cinnamon and vanilla. She had a soft sofa in which I fell onto and almost fell asleep as she cooked dinner.

"It's done." She said putting plates on the table behind the sofa.

"Haha, I'm glad too. I almost fell asleep." I said getting up to the table. I let my Pokemon out so they could eat too.

"So what is your name?" She asked me.

"Vahl, and yours?" I asked, stuffing food into my mouth.

"Christine."

"Thank you Christine."

After dinner Christine showed me to the bath room. She set down some extra cloths and walked out.

(BTW THIS IS NOT GOING TO BE EXPLICT)

I took of my old cloths and slid into the hot water. It felt great on my sweaty body. I let out Kyo and let him swim around in there with me. We splashed and had so much fun. I found the soap and washed up. Kyo got out and gave me a towel so I could dry off. I did then went to the cloths. Christine was a bit taller than me but I knew they would fit for the time been.

I walked out of the bath to the couch and collapsed on it.

I was out in a matter of seconds.
