I dash outside of the Team Rocket head quarters and I don't look back. After awhile I reach a forest and stop to rest. "Oh charmander, I'm so glad to have you back." I squeeze charmander in a big hug and then turn to the Raichu. "So who's your new friend?" The Raichu looks at charmander, then back at me. "You met him inside the head quarters, right?" charmander give me a nod and sits down on the ground. All of a sudden I hear voices behind us. As I peek to see who's there, a hand clamped over my mouth and pulled me back a few feet.
"Keep low, Team Rocket and Galactic is over there." I turn to see Alex with a worried expression on her face.
"Are you ok?" I ask.
"Fine, but we have to get out of here. Luckily I have a friend who can get us to the next city over." Then she pulled out a pokeball and clicked the button. A strong beam of light shot out and hit the ground. Only seconds later a huge bird emerged and looked me in the eyes. "This is Starapter; he will be your ride."
"What about you?" I say as I climb on top of the bird.
"tsk tsk, I can take care of myself. You are the main priority here." She looks at Starapter and nodded. The bird, without warning, spread its wings and took off into the sky.
Within minutes we were in a new town. My hair was messy and I was still clinging to the bird, but I began moving when an old man walked up to me.
"Who might you be traveler?" he tilted his head, in an old man sort-of-way.
"Lance, my name is Lance." I fixed my hair and brushed non-existing dirt of my shoulders.
"Ah, then you are the one. Come with me Lance." He started walking off before I got off of Starapter.
"HEY! WAIT FOR ME!" I shouted as I ran up to the old man.
"Calm down Lance, we don't want to attract attention do we?" I shook my head. We turn the corner and before me stands a huge building towering above the rest of the city. "Welcome, Dr. Zectoes, to your destiny."
