Our two new trainers were walking back to their homes excitedly and talking about their upcoming journey.
"Did you think about where you want to go first?," Silas asked.
"Not that much actually. I wanted to follow my adventure instinct," Corrin answered cheekily. "But, I heard that the small country of Izumo is the place to start your travels as a new trainer."
"That's an excellent destination," he commented. "I read it's actually filled of unique and exotic pokemon."
"Really? How exciting!" she exclaimed. The two continued their conversation until they had to go their separate ways. They agreed to make their backpack and meet at the intersection as soon as they're ready. Corrin ran down the road towards her house with a huge smile. She couldn't wait to go on her journey and to show her new companion to her mom. She was close to her home, but something made her stop in her tracks. In front of the building was the familiar car of her doctor. Corrin stood still and started to fear the worst. She took smaller steps towards her home with dread that in the end she would still be stuck here in this small village.
She slowly opened the door and walked inside.
"I'm home," she called out tentatively. "Mom?"
"In the kitchen dear. Someone is here to see you," Mikoto answered. The young teen walked towards the kitchen to see the familiar face of Doctor Yukimura and surprisingly his assistant known as Jakob.
"Hello there Corrin," Yukimura greeted with a soft smile.
"Hi," she replied with a small voice. "What's going on?"
"Well, your mother told me today was the day you set off on your long await pokemon journey," he informed.
"That's right and nothing can stop me," Corrin defended.
"Corrin mind your manners," Mikoto scolded.
"No need for the scolding," Yukimura assured. "Don't worry Corrin, when I said you could go I meant every word of it." Corrin let out a big sigh of relief, but she got the feeling a 'but' would soon follow.
"However, I still believe you should have someone come with you that knows of your medical issues. You never know what might happen during your travels and I only wish your safety," the doctor explained. "That is my condition for you to leave Valla is Jakob accompanies you."
The young man walked forward and bowed respectfully.
"Miss Corrin, I hope to help you as much as I can during your journey," he stated.
"Right," Corrin said with a bit of reluctance. Not knowing what to say more there was an awkward silence before Mikoto spoke up again.
"Well this is very nice of you Jakob. I'm sure Corrin thinks the same," she said cheerfully. "Honey why don't you go pack your bag upstairs and I'll join you after saying goodbye to the dear Doctor." Corrin nodded lightly and skipped upstairs to get away from this tense atmosphere.
The young teen took her backpack and started to get the essentials. After a short while, there was a light knock on the door.
"I'm coming in," Mikoto interrupted. She opened the door and walked in. It was quiet between them for a little moment. "So, you never did show me your starter pokemon."
"Oh right," Corrin acknowledged.
"Sweetie you can't be this upset. Be reasonable about it," her mother encouraged. "You're still going on your journey. Isn't that amazing?"
"Well yeah, but I didn't want some sort of… Butler, to come. I thought it was only going to be Silas and I," Corrin retorted.
"I know honey, but I have to agree with the Doctor on this. I would feel a lot better with someone that has knowledge of your medical background," Mikoto reasoned. "Come here." The mother held out her hands for her daughter to take them. The young teen stopped in her packing frenzy and took her mother's hand.
"I know this isn't what you wanted, but in life you have to be able to do some accommodation. You'll still have fun and you know the saying. The more the merrier am I right?" Corrin giggled lightly and hugged her mom.
"So, may I see your new companion?" Mikoto asked with a smile. Her daughter smiled and nodded eagerly before getting the pokeball.
"Charmander come on out," she called. The familiar red beam shot out from the ball and soon the fire pokemon made it's appearance.
"Char~," it said.
"Charmander meet my mom," Corrin introduced.
"Hello there little one," Mikoto greeted and waved.
"Cha~!" Charmander replied with it's own wave. After the introduction, the mom and daughter duo proceeded to finish packing the bag with the help of Charmander.
After they were done, Corrin recalled her pokemon and Mikoto was guiding her daughter to the front door to say their goodbye. When they opened the door, Jakob was there with his own backpack ready to do.
"Now, I'll say to you the same thing I said to Kamui when he left," Mikoto started. "Be safe on your journey and have fun my darling." She pecked Corrin's forehead tenderly before hugging her. "My two babies leaving the nest."
"Mooom," Corrin drawled. "I'm not a baby."
"You'll alway be my baby girl to me," her mother joked and lightly ruffled her daughter's silver hair.
"Love you too mom," Corrin giggled. She gave her mother one last peck and walked away. She greeted Jakob with a polite smile and the two proceeded to go to the meeting point where Silas would be.
Corrin and Jakob were nearing the meeting place and the young teen saw her friend was there.
"Silas!" she called out with a grin.
"Hey Corrin!" he replied with his own smile. Once Corrin arrived he noticed Jakob staying ever so silent. "Uh, who's this?"
"Oh um, this is Jakob," she introduced. "He's the doctor's assistant and will be coming with us. Jakob this is my friend Silas."
"Pleasure to meet you," Jakob stated politely before bowing.
"Oh, nice to meet you too," Silas replied.
"I'm sorry about this," Corrin apologized. "I know it was suppose to be the two of us."
"Hey don't worry about it," he reassured. "The more the merrier right?"
"Haha, that's what my mom said," she giggled. "All right then gentlemen, off we go!"
Our trio walked down the path leading to the borders of Valla where amazing adventures awaited them. Many challenges will come to our young trainer's way, but with the help of her friends and pokemon she overcome anything in her path. Their first destination is the exotic country of Izumo. What will our young group of trainers encounter during their travel.
That's the intro guys :D . I hope you guys liked it. Sorry in advance for any typo's or grammar mistakes. I always edit my stuff so I'll spot them :P
From here on out I don't know where this is heading at 100%. I have some element of the story formed, but as I mentioned before this is when I'm in the mood to write. I don't want to force myself and stop writing the story like I did in the past.
Also, I'll see if it picks up enough interests :)
