Chapter 2: History Tends to Repeat Itself
Dawn's POV
Saying I wasn't excited would have been a HUGE lie. I was about to burst!
Everywhere I looked, there was a unfamiliar Pokemon.
I hurried over to a map, and tried memorizing the directions to Prof. Juniper's lab. Sure that I knew the way, I started off.
o.0.o
"This is hopeless." I murmured as I was back at the map for the third time. I was a dork with directions, and, after three attempts, I still didn't find the lab, but a Laundromat, a grocery store, and an ice cream parlour with surprisingly good milkshakes.
"Now was it right and then left...? No, that leads to the Laundromat... Ugh..."
"Pip Piplup. Pip, Pip, Pip." said Piplup disapprovingly as he shook his head.
"Oh yeah! Well you try and find the lab, smarty pants!"
Piplup paused, looked at the map, and then took a few steps forward...
Before getting trampled over by a cute grey Pokemon. Piplup laid still for a moment, and then jumped up and began yelling angry accusations towards the chinchilla-like creature.
"Piplup! Pip Pip, Pip Piplup!"
"Minccino! Min, Minccino!"
Out of anger, Piplup fired a bubble beam attack. The Pokemon countered with a Swift attack. The attacks collided, creating a pretty, yet dangerous, explosion.
"Minccino! You should know better!" scolded a woman who looked to be around my mom's age. She had her chestnut coloured hair in a messy bun, and wore a white t-shirt and a green skirt. Red and white sneakers adorned her feet and a white lab coat hung loosely around her body.
"Um...excuse me. Are you perhaps...?"
Her brown eyes looked up to me after she finished scolding her Pokemon.
"Prof. Juniper? Yes, that would be me. How may I help you?"
"Oh thank god! My names Dawn Hikari! I came here from Sinnoh and was supposed to receive a Pokemon from you but..."
"So you're Dawn! You didn't show up, so I drove here to find you. What happened, did your sea plane get delayed?"
"Yes! Of course! That's what happened!" I said, becoming flustered. I heard snickering behind me, and gave Piplup a good kick to get him to shut up. Fortunately, Prof. Juniper didn't notice.
"Well hop in!" she said as she patted a nearby jeep. I guess it was hers. "I'll drive you to my lab."
Third Person POV
Unknown to Dawn and Prof. Juniper, something as simple as lunch became a disaster in a matter of two minutes.
"At least we were able to calm them down." said one lab assistant, referring to the three Pokemon who sat in front of her.
One was a blue and white otter-like Pokemon who had a scallop on its stomach. She smiled as it ate her food quickly.
The second was an orange and black pig Pokemon. He ate his food very quickly and sloppily, not caring about his surroundings.
The final one was a green and yellow snake-like Pokemon. She sat quietly off to the side, eating her food as neatly and silently as possible.
They were the three starters Pokemon of Unova. Oshawott, Tepig, and Snivy.
The assistants had just finished breaking up their latest argument. Apparently, Tepig made a huge mess of the training area, which made Snivy angry. She began lecturing him on being neater, but it resulted in a full fledged battle. Oshawott, being herself, began trying to break up the fight, but that only resulted in her getting hit with an ember and vine whip attach. After Oshawott joined in, it got rather...ugly.
The lab assistants stopped their bickering settled them down and fed them some lunch.
Another lab assistant came through with two different looking bird pokemon.
"Hey guys!" he greeted as walked through.
"What are the Unfezant for?" asked the female assistant.
"I wanted to do research on why a male and female Unfezant look so different." answered the assistant.
"A Pidove is one of my favourites. It was the first Pokemon I ever caught."
"Really? Mine was a Lillipup!" said another assistant.
While the three were talking, Tepig ran out of food. It noticed this, and decided to take some of Snivys.
This infuriated Snivy, and she used Vine whip. Tepig countered with Ember. Somehow, Oshawott got caught in the crossfire, and it became very angry, so it also attacked.
By the time the assistants noticed, the fight was to far gone. The attacks hit the bird Pokemon, startling them. They used a Gust attack, blowing papers around, and eventually breaking the windows. They flew out, followed by Tepig and then Snivy.
The assistants looked around, and went into panic mode.
"OH MY GOD! WE'VE GOTTA CLEAN THIS UP BEFORE SHE GETS BACK!"
"Clean what up?" asked Prof. Juniper as she walked through the door with Dawn.
"OH MY GOD! SHE'S BACK!"
"Yeah...? This is my lab, isn't it?"
The assistants sighed in defeat, figuring they might as well tell the two of them what happened.
Dawn's POV
I couldn't believe it! The lab was a mess!
Glass was broken; there were books and plants on the floor.
There was a mixture of burnt wall, wet floor and leaves.
"Ummm, well..." One assistant stuttered.
The bravest [and most foolish] assistant stepped forward and sighed.
"Well it seems that Tepig, Oshawott and Snivy got into a fight. It started when Tepig took Snivy's food. Either Snivy loves her food or she has anger management!" The assistant said the last part trying to crack a joke.
Professor Juniper started shaking.
"Professor Juniper?" I asked.
Uh oh. I recognize this. My Mum does this when she gets angry. Really angry...
"How could you? I'm so...ANGRY! MY LAB IS RUINED. THIS HAS HAPPENED TOO MANY TIMES! I'M THROUGH! GAAAAAH!" Professor Juniper screams.
She stalks out the room. I follow her.
"Sorry about that. They anger me so much. Why don't you choose a Pokemon? Just go back into the lab and take one of them. Here's a poke ball so you can catch a wild Pokemon by the way" She says.
I thank her and walk to the lab being careful not to step on broken glass.
I look at the Pokemon.
Tepig is strong and ready to go.
Oshawott is smiley and friendly.
Snivy is smart and graceful.
Who do I choose?
Wait…there are only two Pokemon. I thought there were tree starters!
Oh no…
WHERE'S SNIVY?
Amy47101: Hooray! Chapter 2!
