Now I've finally gotten enough time to write again... I'm so happy…
My eyes slit open a small crack, and realized that it was night and was still in the middle of nowhere, in front of the sign which read "Pallet Town."
My memory was not fogged anymore as it was in my dream, I could still see the lucario in my mind and hear its voice.
My legs wobbled as I stood up…. Although I wasn't cold, I could tell it was pretty cold, from my breath that was coming out from my mouth like smoke.
Fortunately, I was wearing warm clothes, because in Japan where I lived, was in the middle of winter. I was wearing a singlet on the inside (no bra, because I was flat chested), with a black and blue t-shirt with a Riolu on top of it, which also included a hoodie. On top of the t-shirt, I had a red and black jacket with cat ears on the hoodie. On top of the jacket I had a brown parka, which came with a wool scarf. On my head I had a brown beanie, and on my feet I had brown leather boots (like mug). I had my only pair of black pants on my thin legs, which were sent from my dear brother in Korea.
I then, heard a twig crack, startling my wobbling legs, which could not take the shock and collapsed on the grass. My body shook in desperation, maybe it was the lucario.
It's probably not on my side, but what can I do?
I can't even walk!
I turned to face the continuing noise of the cracking twigs. The tension was seriously killing me; the direction of the sounds were coming from a forest. I stared intensely at the trees, as if I was a goose who had been caught in a trap waiting to be cooked.
I could only hope that it wasn't anyone dangerous.
To my surprise, it was a boy who came out of the woods. And that boy, in which I had seen from the mangas and games was the one and only ...Red!
He was amazing, he looked pretty amazing too. He was wearing jeans with a black belt and with a plain dark red t-shirt and with a red and white collared t-shirt on top of it. On top of his spiky hair, he had his precious red and white cap.
I stared at him, not believing who was in front of me. As a Pokemon fan, this was the biggest thing EVER!
He looked at me, I stared at him describing to myself how he looked like. I blushed as I realized I was burning holes into him."I-I" I stuttered, in the sad position: sitting on the grass which had dew drops making my black pants absorb the water .
He came toward me and gave me a hand. I whispered, "Thanks."
"No, problem." He replied, with a surprising darker voice than the childish voiced Ash. I stared at him again, wow this is the first time I had ever had so much interest for a guy.
I then realized why I liked this guy so much, I asked him with a whisper again, "C-can I see Pikachu?"
With widening eyes, he asked, "How do you know Pikachu?! I've never even seen your face before!" but still, he reached for a pokeball and yelled, "Go, Pikachu!"
Pikachu comes out, and gives a little "pika?"
"So? Who are you?" he asks again.
"O-oh my name is," I whisper, "is Seann, I'm new here.." knowing that he wouldn't believe my story.
"Seen?!" He laughs, "don't you mean Sean?"
"No, it's just Seann, with two 'n's" I say with a bored look.
Everyone is the same I guess, even in games. This Red wasn't as interesting after all.
It looked like my whispering symptom went away, because now I was more confident and less afraid.
Pikachu came up to me and said, "Pika-chu!"
How cute! I loved Pikachu! but most of all I loved Pokémon shippings. I pet Pikachu on the head and see the scar on Pikachu's ear, oh right! now I know everything about everyone here, but hey know nothing about me!
"Okay, so where are you going to stay tonight?" He asks as if he knows that I don't. I'm surprised at this question, but quickly hide it and think of a story. "uh-uh..."
"Actually, my dad and mom just died, and sent me here to live with my brother, but on the way he dies too...I made it here by myself and I have no idea what I'm supposed to do, I have no money either..!" I lied with fake tears rolling down my cheeks.
His eyes soften; believing the whole story. This was definitely the kind and caring Red I knew. "Oh, is that so, I guess I'll have to ask my mom if she can fix you up a place for you to stay." He says softly like a bigger brother.
We go to his house which I recognize from the game. He knocks on the door and a woman with a dress and white apron comes out. Her eyes are just like Red's they are red and they widen, when she sees me. "Oh my, Red who is this girl?"
"She's my girlfriend!" he declared. I stare at her and him, my head going back and forth trying to understand what was going on.
But we just met!
"Red!" she barks.
"Okay, okay.. I met her down the street and her parents, along with her brother died and now she is lost without any money or home." He repeats my lie, but exaggerates a little.
I nod in agreement.
Her eyes, like Red's had softened when she heard my story. "Well, you might as well come in."
I see my surroundings, it has a lot of room and in the living room there is a staircase that goes upstairs. I look around noticing things that are familiar to the game.
Then, I thought of something where was Red's dad?
I thought about it and wondered it out loud. Red stared at me, for a while and he shook his head no, for me not to mention it.
He mouthed, "I'll tell you later."
I nodded.
His mom who had went to look for futons, came back with an armful of blankets. I rushed to help her and took the bundle from her. "Here, I'll help!"
She looked at me and smiled.
"It's ok, Red."
I didn't understand... for what? What was ok?
Red also looked confused.
She continued, "I'll let her marry you."
Our eyes widened. "I'm only 15 mom!" he says, shocked.
"I'm only fourteen!" I added.
She shakes her head, laughing.
Maybe it was a joke?
"Of course not!" she cries out.
We both look relieved.
"When you guys turn 18, I'm not stupid!" she explains seriously.
"WHAT!?" we both exclaim at the same time.
Nope, she's dead serious. I'm doomed my future is dark, it looked my charm works oppositely in games? I'm good with boys in the real world, but I'm good with their mothers in the games. Well, just great. Just great. I'll have all the mothers wanting to make their sons marry me in no time!
"Oh honey, what is your name?" she asks me.
"Seann."
-The next day-
Red is already up eating breakfast and I'm wearing exactly what I was wearing yesterday.
I walk down stairs and I see Red and his mom wearing the same clothes too.
Oh yeah, they wear the same clothes everyday here!
Without anymore worries, I end up coming to the dining table with only my Riolu t-shirt and pants on, placing the rest of my clothes next to the futon, which was in the same room as Red's mom.
As I sit down, I notice that there weren't any knives in the kitchen. Not to mention, that there were berries on the table, which I recognized: oran berries, pecha, sitrus, and razz. Etc
I ate three berries and a bowl of rice.
Suddenly, there is a rash knock. I look warily away from my food to the door, irritated that someone had interrupted my breakfast.
Red's mom goes to the door, I then start wolfing down my food again.
Suddenly, Reds mom lets out a small squeal. I glance away from my food again and I see the one and only ...Professor Oak! He stands at the door way and he looks at me.
"Who is this young lady?" he asks, to no one in particular.
"Oh, she came here yesterday, and needed a place to stay." Reds mom pipes up.
"Umm, yeah." I say.
"Oh really, are you perhaps a Pokémon trainer?" He asks looking at my riolu t-shirt.
"No, b-but I'm interested." I reply nervously.
"Is that so, right now I have three Pokémon eggs that need someone to love and care for them and it just so happens that at the moment I'm short of people, would you like to drop by?" While glancing at Red.
"Yes!" I say very interested at the chance of raising a Pokémon.
This wouldn't have happened if I hadn't met Red, maybe he isn't so bad after all.
-After breakfast-
I ask Red if he can show me the way to the lab and he agrees, seeming to also anticipate, in seeing the eggs.
We walk down the road and just a couple blocks down to the right, we can see the lab on the top of a hill.
As we reach the lab, I notice a young boy around my age with spiky brown hair and narrow eyes playing with an Eevee. It must be…Blue!
He doesn't seem to notice us and continues to play.
Disappointed in not being able to meet him, we walk into the lab. Professor Oak welcomes us and then asks me the same question like in the game. "What is your name?"
"My name is Seann."
Red smiles. I continue..
" but you can call me Grey."
This was the name I would always put in my game.
"Alright, Grey. Which egg do you want?" As he reveals three eggs in three transparent capsules.
"Oh, I wish I could get them all" Red exclaimed.
"I would give them all, but that would be too much of a hassle. Carrying all the capsules that is."
I nodded and said, "Ones enough, thank you!"
It showed a variety of an egg which had blue and black zigzags on the middle with a white dot and on the top was a small circular black, and another egg which had yellow and a black zigzag on the bottom. Then, the last one was brown and had a white zigzag in the middle.
Suddenly, the eggs start to glow one by one and I notice that the eggs were cracking.
The Pokemon that came out were Riolu, Eevee and a Pichu.
Our eyes widen, "Speak of the devil!" Proffesor Oak shouted.
He caught them all, with three Pokeballs. "Normally, I would give the trainer only one pokemon, but today's special, so Grey you get these three Pokemon as partners."
I was expecting more, but there wasn't any sign of the hi mentioning the pokedex.
Perhaps, I was only going to raise them at home?
Red noticed that too, "Professor aren't you forgetting something?"
"Oh, yeah the pokedex!" he exclaimed. He ran to get one.
He handed it to me and said," I'm currently researching the pokemon world and I would like you to find and complete the pokedex."
And there it was, the red and beautiful pokedex.
I hoped you guys enjoyed ^^
