JPTA
Prologue
Hi there, just to get the story started I'm gonna write the prologue! HA!
…Not sure what else to comment on right now…
Okay, here are some warnings I'm putting out just for the heck of it:
-Gets as close to swearing as possible
-the battle scenes aren't the best…
-OCs…duh
-strange behavior
-When Hollows Attack comes before this in importance of stories, so I most likely wont update too quickly.
Disclaimer: I do not own pokemon!
"Eri…Eri? ERI FOR THE LOVE OF ARCEUS, WAKE UP! YOU FELL ASLEEP AGAIN!"
"Huh…? What?" I groggily asked, pushing up my weight with the edge of my palms as I pryed my long black lashes open. It was hazy at first, and everything looked like a huge blur of colors, but after blinking a few times I could make out that my younger brother, Sai was leaning in front of me, glaring.
"Oh, hey, bro.." I smiled, still tired before I realized I was surrounded by furrets.
"OH MY GOODNESS THEY'RE SO CUTE!" I squealed lifting one up and squeezing the life out of it as I cuddled my face into her soft fur. The rest of the brown ferret creatures ran off in mortification, leaving my brother, me, and the furret I managed to catch behind.
Within another three seconds, Sai raised his fist in the air and knocked my head with great force, causing me to release the fur-ball as I fell flat on my face.
"Oww…" I sniffled innocently, re-adjusting my hat and lifting myself back up to face the furious little boy before me. "What did I do?"
"You scared the living day light out of those poor furrets!" He hissed, golden eyes burning furiously at me.
"I didn't mean to…"
"You never mean to, you just naturally repel pokemon, baka!"
"Sheesh" I sighed, standing up and brushing the dust off my clothes "for a seven year old boy, you sure have a lot of anger, don't you?"
"Only because I'm surrounded by idiots like you." He said before walking off without me…that is before I followed him across the field to our ranch. Yes, our family owns a ranch…it's not the most popular career choice, but a practical one, it pays well too...not sure how, but it does!
"Ririiiiiiii!" my older brother's voice called out as he hopped the fence ran right past Sai, straight to me before he picked me up and twirled me around a couple of times before setting me down gently and asking "Where did you go? Are you alright?" in a slightly frantic tone.
"I'm fine, I just fell asleep across the field, that's all."
"You fell asleep without taking any pokemon with you? What if some creeper came along?"
"Eh, not like he'll be interested anyway…"
"You never know, now will you."
"Hopefully not."
"Now let's get going, Maximus has been flipping out since you disappeared."
As if on cue, the ballistic cry of an over-protective ponyta could be heard as the white and red fire type leaped over the fence, dashing to my side before nuzzling me with his snout. Sai rolled his eyes before climbing over the tall wooden fence in a struggle.
"Why…" I sniffled, burying my face in my companion's fur before wailing out "why does he hate me?"
A firm hand ruffled my hair before I looked up to see Link's eyes adorning down at me kindly before he sighed "He doesn't hate you Eri…" a smirk appeared on his flawless face before he finished his sentence, "He's just jealous because he's seven, you're fourteen, and you're way cuter."
"He'd be a lot cuter if he wasn't such a jerk all the time." I whispered to myself. "He said I repel pokemon…You're not repelled by me, are you Maximus?"
The fire horse then bulged his eyes before shutting them tight as he shook his head furiously, making sure I got the message. If that didn't cheer me up, I don't know what would.
"Now come on," Link smiled, lifting me up and setting me down on Maximus's back, "Etsu got home from her most recent contest while you were gone."
"Onee-chan's back? Ride on, Maximus! Ride on!" I shouted, kicking my heels into his sides and almost loosing my favorite cap as Max dashed off, leaving my older brother Link in the dust before leaping over the fence with relative ease before riding across the ranch and stopping right before the patio as I used my arms to launch myself off Maximus as I spread my legs in the splits mid air to make it over his head before flying in through the open slide, glass door and landing in a summersault before standing up.
"…how the heck did I manage to pull that off?"
Snapping me out of my shock, a higher pitch version of my own voice called out "Imouto-chaaaan!"
"Onee-chan!" I called back, reacting on instinct and spinning to face where the voice was coming from on my heel, my arms spread wide. My arms were then occupied my my older sister, Etsu as she sprinted into my embrace, hugging my neck and burying her face into my shoulders. She was still dressed up from the contest, wearing a gorgeous pink dress that parted open to reveal white silky fabric in the front that matched her white flats. Her apple hair was curled and her bangs clipped to the side by a silver beautifly hair pin. To top it off, her face was lightly dusted with blush and lilac eyeliner and she smelled of roses. (I'll post it on DeviantArt)
"Oh my goodness, Onee-chan." I gasped as we broke apart our hug, forearms still linked, "You look AMAZING!"
"Aw, you think so?" she fawned, looking away in embarrassment, releasing my arms to cover her now pink face with her French manicured hands.
"Why do you guys call each other Onee-chan and Imouto-chan when you're only five minutes apart in age?" Sai scoffed, slumping down on the couch, picking his nails.
"Well aren't you just the basket full of sunshine today?" Etsu shrugged, rolling her eyes at our fuddy-duddy younger brother as I stuck out my tongue at him.
"Oh by the way," Etsu beamed, turning back to me, "I saw Uncle Souske at my contest (that I came third in, by the way) and he told me to give you something."
"A gift?" I asked, feeling as if rainbows of happiness were starting to grow inside me as my heart rate quickened. Uncle Souske always gave the best gifts.
"Yeah, a gift."
"Is it chocolate? I bet its chocolate."
"No, it's not chocolate, something way better then that."
"One of those salami log thingies? I love those!"
"It's not salami; it's something you can't buy at a store."
"Rare Peruvian cheese?"
"For the love of Arceus, Eri, it's not food!"
"One of those super cute clefairy dolls?"
"You can buy those at a store, Eri1 just read the freaking letter!" Etsu cried, shoving the cream colored envelope in my face before I took it from her. Taking a deep breath, I slid my finger across the bottom of the flab, opening the envelope. As soon as I removed the letter from it's containment, I opened it up to read:
"Greetings, Miss Eri Tsukimoto,
The fact that you are reading this means that you've been accepted to the Jotoh Pokemon Tuition Academy. Congratulations!
This is a great honor for the most accomplished of trainers. Your full scholarship also means that you don't have to pay the room and board fee, tuition fee, food fee, or text book fee. The only thing that requires payment is the money for your uniforms. Yes, uniforms, meaning there are several (schooling, training, health and fitness, ect.).
Once there, you spend your first day picking which group you wish to study in, finding your way around the campus, meeting your roommate(s) and receiving your uniforms.
The groups of study that we have include:
Red group: The battling group, designed for pokemon trainers that wish to become masters, gym leaders, or anything around that sort.
Blue group: The coordination group, designed for pokemon coordinators who wish to become top coordinators, performers, or anything around that sort.
Green group: The research group, designed for those who wish to become pokemon researchers, professors, artists, or anything around that sort.
Yellow group: The breeding group, designed for those who wish to become pokemon breeders, care takers, ranchers, or anything around that sort.
White group: The health group, designed for those who want to become pokemon nurses, doctors, or anything around that sort.
Once again, we sincerely congratulate you for being accepted, we expect to see you in one week.
Cordially, those at the JPTA"
It took a couple of seconds for the fact to sink in.
"I'm going to JPTA…" I whispered to myself before squealing at the top of my lungs before being joined by my sister.
"Why do girls always have to scream when they get excited?" Sai hissed, glaring daggers at us before I pumped my fist in the air and cheered "Because I got accepted to the JPTA!"
"What?" he gasped, finally showing something besides anger in his yellow eyes of his, "No way…"
"Read it and weep, non believer!" I shouted, throwing the letter in his face before dancing around the room as my parents entered, my dad shouting "what's all the yelling about? Who died?"
"Nobody, I just got accepted to the JPTA!"
"…that's great sweetie! ...(what's the JPTA?)"
Now, from all my running and shouting, I started to feel light headed and my heart rate slowed as the room started to grow darker.
"Uh oh, she's going to—"
THUMP!
I blacked out on the carpet.
And that's essentially a sneak peak at what the stories going to be like…a very poor, non descriptive sneak peek, but it's still one none the less!
For those of you who sent me OCs, thank you so much, but I still need more! (for those of you who were wondering)
So, If you want to send one in, or you already did and want to send another in, go right ahead, this is a freaking academy, I have plenty of room!
So far I have received:
Red- 5
Blue- 1
Green- 0
Yellow- 0
White- 1
Teachers- 0
Not that you can't still send in reds, but some others would be nice too, you know!
Spaz-chan out!
