The escape.
Alice picked up the Charmander's Pok ball.
I can't describe the fealing I had.
Foreboding?
Possibly.
Dread, definitely.
I tried to get my mind off my fealings, and thought about my new Piplup.
Then, I realized that there were 2 water type starter Pok mon, and know Grass type Pok mon starters.
I knew that things weren't going to be exactly like the video games or anim , but no grass type Pok mon?
"Excuse me, Professor?" I asked "Yes?" He answered.
"I noticed that there was a Fire type Pok mon, and 2 water ones, but why not a grass type?" I asked.
"Well, usually Piplup are not given away here at my lab, but a trainer named tiler came to get his first Pok mon yesterday, and he chose Treecko." The PROF. Answered.
"It just so happens that was my last Treecko, but I still wanted to present you with 3 Pok mon choices."
"This Piplup that I caught last week was the odvious answer to my Dilemma." The Professor finished.
"I see." I said.
"Come on slower then muk partner." Alice said.
"What's the rush?" I asked her.
"It's just I'm ready to go, and you are slowing me down!" She said rudely.
"If I wanted a Slowpoke, don't you think I'd catch one?" She asked, annoying me to death.
"Professor-" I started, but remembered how much the Professor had done for me, so I stopped myself from speaking my thoughts.
I was going to ask if there was another way I could travel, because this girl was seriously a *****.
'This is going to be a lonnng journey.' I thought.
"Come on, or I'll have to mame you." She said.
"Now, now." The professor said.
"There's no reason to be rude, Alice."
'A little late to say that, don't you think?' I thought privately.
Note to self.
Catch a Growlith and run away ASAP!
"Just hurry up!" She said sounding exasperated.
I thought that I had more of a reason to be exasperated then her.
Nevertheless, I followed her out the door.
She kept talking to me like I was less of a human then she was.
"Come on, overhere boy, over here."
"Watch out for that signpost."
"Look where you go, it's not my fault you ran in to that wall!"
By time we reached what I thought was route 1, I was seriously POed.
This is just to much to deal with!
I ran off.
I was expecting her to hollor after me, but I realized that she didn't want me arround almost as much as I didn't want her.
I was trying to tell when I was going to run in to something by making clicking noises with my tongue.
It worked for a while, till I ran straight in to a hole.
"Damn it!" I shouted.
"Pipp pip." Piplup said.
I supposed that the Pok ball had burst open when I fell.
I swore some more, but finally managed to clamber out of the hole.
"I've got to find a way to travel!" I said.
I heard Piplup walking infrunt of me, so I followed him.
I couldn't really do anything else could I?
I heard a Pidgey, piddg pidgey noise.
It was apparent to me that I was approaching a wild Pidgey.
Pidgey was the second Pok mon I ever caught.
"Maybe I can catch one of these!" I said.
I may have been getting a little overconfident.
I really didn't have a reason to be, but I guess I was still really excited about the whole being in the Pok mon world thing.
"Piplup, use Bubblebeam!" I yelled.
It was so exciting!
I've always wanted to control a Pok mon like that!
"Pip lup lup lup!" Piplup said, and I suppose, he used bubblebeam.
I wish I knew exactly what Pidgey did, but I can only guess.
It made a cry, and I heard a strong wind.
I could guess this was a gust attack.
"Piplup, use Peck!" I said.
Piplup used the attack, and suddenly, my Pok dex made a beaping noise.
"Beap." It said, and made a statement in it's slightly robotic voice.
"Battle Nerator V. initiated.
"Great!" I said out loud.
I knew that tonight, I'd be writing another part of my adventure on the Pok dex's notepad feature, so I selected Log All Battle Events on the settings page.
Pidgey countered the Peck attack with a Quick Attack.
It hit home, and Piplup felll over.
"Piplup no!" I said after the Pok dex told me what had happened.
"Piplup!" I said.
I was hoping Piplup was strong enough.
"Use Water Gun, now!" I said in despiration.
"Pip lup pp." Piplup said in a weak voice.
A under powered Water Gun hit Pidgey in it's chest.
Pidgey was startled, and this gave Piplup the courage to continue the fight.
"Use Bubblebeam now!" I said.
I wanted to take advantage of Piplup's courage and strength.
"Pip lup lup lup!" Piplup said.
I could tell the difference in it's attitude through it's voice.
The Bubblebeam did its work.
Pidgey fainted.
"Go Pok ball!" I said, reaching for a Pok ball.
Then I realized The Professor had never given me any!
I was a little disappointed, but there's more to Pok mon training then just catching every single Pok mon you find in the wild.
I followed Piplup some more, hoping that it new where it was going.
I ran in to a sign.
"Damn it!" I swore.
This was stupid.
I used the sign to pull myself up, and in the process, found that the sign had braille written at the bottum.
Crystal Sea City it read.
"We're here!" I said.
"Piplup!" Piplup answered.
Now I realized that I'd have to be more careful in the towns and cities.
I needed to return Piplup, and there is also the increased number of cars driving through the city.
'What do I do now?' I asked myself.
'Hitchhike I suppose." I said.
I was nervous, because I had never done this before.
I also wasn't sure if it was completely safe.
I held my thumb up as I had heard somebody tell me to do before.
Several, several cars past before officer Jenny picked me up.
Once I was in the police car, she asked me where I needed to go.
"To the Pok mon center mam."" I said politely "You got it." She said.
The trip took roughly 5 minutes.
When we arrived at the Pok mon center, I jumped out of the car and walked slowly to a wall.
I new that walls usually leed to doors, so I followed it till I reached the Pok mon center door.
I ran inside, and straight in to Alice.
"Wo there kid." She said.
"Oh, it's you." She said, _sounding sooooo glad to see me_.
Note: I will put an _ before and after a word or phrase to indicate sarkasm.
"I was hoping you got ran over by a car or trampled by a Tauros." She said.
The love was _so odvious_.
I tried to ignore her as best I could.
I heard footsteps and then a female voice say "Miss Ash, your Pok mon are fully healed and ready to go!"
Alice reached for the Pok balls, and said thank you.
I was surprised that Alice even knew that was a word.
Alice left, and the Nurse welcomed me to the center.
"Umm." I said, not sure what to say.
"Could you heal my Pok mon?" I asked.
"Sure!" She said.
I held out Piplup's Pok ball, but I must have held it in the wrong direction.
She laughed.
"Are you blind?" She asked kindly.
"Urr, yes." I said.
"Okay, okay." She said.
"This explains my confusion." She said.
She reached out and took the Pok ball from my hand.
"Would you like to stay here tonight?" The Nurse asked kindly.
"Yes please, if it's no trouble." I said.
"No trouble at all." She replied.
She went through a door behind the desk, and returned a few minutes later.
"I need to skan your Pok dex for identification." She said.
I handed her the electrical encyclopedia, and she pressed some buttons on it.
"Thank you sir." She said.
"Now, come with me so I can show you to your room." She said invitingly.
We went to a dimly lit room with a big bed and a television.
"Here you are!" She said.
"Thank you Joy." I said.
I knew it was only 1:10 PM, so I couldn't just stay in my room the rest of the day.
I asked Nurse Joy if I could have a roomkey, and she happily abliged.
With the roomkey in my pocket, I sent Piplup out of its Pok ball and used the phone to call a taxy.
I didn't have much money, just a few dollars that the Professor gave me.
1,500 Pok dollars.
A taxy was 100 Pok dollars to drive to a restaurant and back.
I chose to go to a restaurant called The Crystal Beach Fish Hut.
The food seemed to be real fish like you'd eat in our world, but I still didn't figure out how.
Piplup, being the penguin that he is, was thrilled with my disision.
We ate till we were full.
The bill was 200 Pok dollars.
I only had 1,200 Pok dollars left, so I thought I'd save them.
The trip back to the Pok mon center was short.
I payed the man his money, and found the way back to my room.
Tiredness finally hit me.
I turned on the TV, and was a sleep in 10 minutes.
I woke up around 5:30 PM, just intime to spend another 200 Pok dollars on food.
Well, how was this chapter?
I couldn't have him actually stay with that girl, it wouldn't have been like me at all.
