Chapter 2: pokemon i choose you*ring, ring, ring*
Ashley: ugh, why the hell did i put my alarm clock on the other side of the room
Ashley: oh yeah, i usually break them if they are very close to my bed when i sleep
jumping from her bed, she went to turn off her alarm clock and got dressed up.
She wore a white t-shirt with a thick black vest, and a hood to hide her figure, green cameo pants, and white running shoes.
she tucked her hair into her red cabby hat. her bangs covered her eyes. All in all, she looked like a boy.
she put up her hood, grabbed her duffel bag, and put her backpack on.
Heading downstairs, she stopped and sweatdropped at the sight in the kitchen, her mum was sitting on 1 side of the kitchen
table, which was loaded with a feast.
Mum: morning sweetie, i already made all your favourite foods for breakfast.
On the table, were plates of food: scrambled eggs, tofu, sausage, baked beans, pancake and a glass of orange juice
Ashley: ah, that's great, mum, but can you pack some of this to go so that i am not late?
Mum: of course, you just eat your fill while i get the tupperware.
Ashley ate her fill, put her leftovers in the duffel bag, and then ran to rpofessor oak's lab, 15 feet from the entrance she
stopped
Breathing in, she gather aura in her and then used it to see what was ahead of her. Gary oak gathered a lot of people for his
grand send off.
Ashley's thoughts: His big ego is gonna get him into trouble 1 day. She cut off her sight and jogged to the lab.
Ignoring the crowd gathered at the entrance, she ran up the steps and went into the lab. she went straight into the room
where new trainers get their new pokemon.
Gary and professor oak were both inside the room.
professor oak: Ah, good morning Ash, You're right on time.
*professor oak called her what she wanted to be called*
Gary: Hey There, Ashy-boy! took you long enough, what happened, you sleep late.
*yes, Gary and all the younger kids thought Ashley is a boy, Only adults and the older kids knew Ashley is a girl*
Professor Oak: Gary Oak! How many times do i have to tell you not to tease other people?
Professor oak: gary, you will have to take squirtle, as the two trainer before you already took bulbasaur and charmander, and
ash i have a pokemon for you, He's a bit hard to handle, so i thought you will be a good trainer to him.
Gary: Ha! As if ashy-boy can could handle a difficult pokemon! i bet 1000 dollar that he will come back crying for a new one
in no time! see ya, gramps, ashy-boy
Ashley: he really is dense as we believed, i just now that his big stuck-up ego will get him in to trouble someday. you did
mention to him that i was your volunteer aide for the last 6 years, right?
Professor oak: Yes, but that infomation went in one ear and out the other
Ashley: Then it's his problem if he doesn't learn much. So what pokemon am i getting and why exactly is it so difficult to
handle
professor oak handed ashley a pokeball with a lightning symbol on it. Letting the pokemon out, she saw it was the electric
mouse pokemon, pikachu
Ashley: well, it looks healthy, so what's
a sparking sound reached her ears in time for her to dodge thundershock from said pikachu
professor oak: As you saw, this pikachu has, pardon the pun, an electrifying personality! It'd be a bad idea to send him with
any other trainer, so i chose you.
Ashley and pikachu stared at each other for a moment
Ashley: yeah, i'll take hime, i may not be a pokemon ranger like my mum was, but i can still connect my feelings to my own
pokemon
professor oak nodded before handing her 5 empty pokeballs and her PokeDex.
Ashley turned to pikachu and ask: So, would you like to ride on my shoulder, or walk
pikachu huffed before jumping to the ground, signalling that he will walk
Stopping in a field near the forest and sitting down looking at pikachu, ashley took out her pokedex.
Dexter: pikachu, the mouse pokemon, it had small electric sacs on both it's cheeks. If it's being threatened, it will loose
electric charges from the sacs
Pikachu: humph! First i got caught, Then i am given to a boy with girly name, talk about humiliating!
Ashley sweatdropped
Ashley: actually, i am a girl, i just don't feel comfortable walking around like one, What's your name
pikachu almost fell down from the tree in shock
Pikachu: Storm... my name is storm. And how are you able to understand me
Ashley: i am not what most people would call normal
Ashley turn around when she heard something near her duffel bag. she saw a purple curly tail sticking out from her bag, she
quickly gather blue energy into her fist and used it on the pokemon
the pokemon was knocked out of her bag and slammed into a tree
Ashley's thought: rattata, and a young one. She throw a heal ball at the rattata. the rattata was caught
Storm: what was that? What was the blue glow on your hand?
Ashley: my mum called it aura, we will be reaching the city in another hour's time
Storm: what city is that
Ashley: virdian city, it's right up the path. Storm, want to try battling with me
Storm: ok, but i get to choose the pokemon
Ashley: alright
Storm: hey look, a pidgey.
Ashley turn around only to see it flew away
Storm: dang, missed it
something flew by and storm used thundershock on it, it wasn't a pidgey
Ashley: oh that's not good, storm, run!
they are running to the direction of virdian city with a flock of spearow following them, Ashley quickly glanced behind them
Ashley: crud!
Storm: What, what is it?
Ashley: there is a fearow in the flock
Storm: double crud!
They ran past a bridge and into a red-haired girl
Misty: Hey, watch it!
Ashley: Take my bag and bring it to virdian city pokemon center and i will be there to pick it up as soon as i get there
It started to rain. Then Ashley had a idea
Ashley: storm, fire a thundershock attack while it's still raining. it will do twice the damage
Storm: okay!
Jumping off Ashley's shoulder, storm let out the strongest thundershock he could manage, The flock took a big amount of
damage. Ashley took out a ultra ball and threw it at fearow and caught it. With fearow caught, the spearow left. Storm got
onto Ashley's shoulder as she picked up fearow's pokeball
