Here's another chappie for you guys!

As this story's… well… story gets made (because this was totally all planned and not all improvised hehe) I'm thinking of not following the anime or the game entirely. Change up a few things, keep things the same. Because it is my story, right?

Anyways, enjoy the chapter!

Oh, and I do not own Pokemon. (Unless I am secretly Iwata or something WHICH I AM NOT)

A Pokemon Adventure

Chapter Two: First Battles

Ayami, Reyna and Jackson set out on their journey, their starters safely in their Pokeballs. Reyna had picked Snivy for her starter, and Jackson picked Oshawott.

They stopped for lunch, because all of them were extremely hungry- especially Reyna, who hadn't eaten breakfast that morning (and got scolded by a sudden motherly Jackson).

After they had Magikarp sushi and sandwiches, Reyna suddenly stood up and stretched. "You know what, we should have a Pokemon battle!" she exclaimed, whirling her arms around.

"Pretty good idea," Jackson nodded. "It'll get us into the spirit of battling."

"I call battling against Ayami first!" Reyna raised a fist into the air.

Ayami, who hadn't talked in a while, nodded. "Sure!"

The two friends positioned themselves so that there was enough space for them to battle.

"Alright, come out, Snivy!" Reyna threw her Pokeball. The ball opened, sending out a red energy that turned into a Snivy.

"Sni." It said, whipping its tail around.

"Okay, Emolga, you too!" Ayami sent out her own Pokeball, and like always, it sent out a red energy that eventually turned into the flying rodent Pokemon Ayami learned to love.

"Ready?" Jackson said in the middle of the battlefield. "Start!"

"Tackle!" Reyna yelled, and her Pokemon obeyed, slamming headfirst into Emolga. The Pokemon shook herself off and stared angrily at the Grass-type.

"Tackle it back!" Ayami yelled, and Emolga sent herself flying into Snivy.

They did this a few more times until Snivy finally fainted. Reyna's expression turned sad- it was so noticeable Ayami saw it from the other side of the battlefield- and dashed towards the lying Pokemon. She picked it up in her small hands and hugged it tightly.

"You'll get another chance, you'll see." Reyna mumbled, then returned the Pokemon to its Pokeball. She looked back towards Ayami and smiled. "That was pretty good for your first time battling."

"Well… Emolga had some experience before, so I guess that's why." Ayami shrugged. "We still have a lot more to do."

Jackson came between the two girls. "That was a good first battle for the both of you, so don't let yourself down just because you lost your first battle, Reyna."

"Yeah." Reyna said in an unconvincing voice. She stood up and put the Pokeball in her bag.

"Anyways, now that that's over," Jackson turned to Ayami. "Would you like to battle with me?"

Ayami tilted her head, but she nodded. "You want to, Emolga?" she turned to face the Pokemon, who nodded in determination. She didn't look like she took too much damage, so we can probably continue without having to heal. Ayami thought.

"Okay." Jackson positioned himself at the end of the battlefield. He sent out his Pokemon while Ayami went back to her position.

"Go Oshawott!" When Ayami turned back, Oshawott was on the battlefield with a smug expression on its face. Reyna had taken Jackson's place as the referee. She raised her hand high. "Battle, start!" she yelled, then brought her arm down.

"Tackle!" Ayami said, and Emolga obeyed.

"Dodge!" Jackson commanded, and the Water-type stepped to the side, easily dodging the attack.

"Alright then- Scratch!" Ayami yelled. Emolga leaped towards Oshawott, and attempted to slash him.

"Use Tackle!" Jackson yelled. Oshawott dodged all of Emolga's attacks and smashed headfirst into the Electric-type. Emolga was sent flying back in a cloud of dust, and when it cleared, Emolga was on the ground, twitching a bit and had swirls for eyes.

Reyna looked both ways, as if attempting to cross the street. Then she raised her hand up high once again. "Emolga is unable to battle! Oshawott is the winner! Which means that Jackson is the winner of this match!"

"Emolga!" Ayami ran to her Pokemon, a worried expression on her face. She knelt beside Emolga, picked her up and hugged her, just like Reyna had done with her Pokemon.

"I thought you'd be much stronger." Ayami turned to see Jackson towering over her. She stood up, he still was towering over her.

"So?" Ayami retorted, tapping her Pokeball on Emolga's head. She was sucked into the Pokeball.

"I really wanted to have a good rival." Jackson sighed, putting his hands over his head.

"Hey," Ayami narrowed her eyes, getting a bit annoyed. "I can be a better rival- I just have to train!"

"You'll never beat me- you'll just come up short."

"No way! I bet me and Emolga will decimate your team!"

"Don't forget, I can get stronger too." Jackson crossed his arms.

"Is this a challenge I'm beginning to hear of?" Ayami smirked.

"I guess it is."

"Alright." Ayami held her hand out. "We'll have a battle at the end of our journey- at the Pokemon League. Whoever wins is the better rival."

"Accepted." Jackson took her hand and shook it.

"I want to be in the action too!" Reyna jumped in suddenly, placing her hand on top of the two intertwined hands. "I want to be rivals with you guys!"

Ayami and Jackson looked at each other and smiled nervously. Then they both looked back at Reyna.

"Okay, we're all rivals. But we'll all help each other on the way." Ayami said. "Agreed?"

"Agreed." Jackson and Reyna said together, then the three threw their hands in the air, shouting joyfully.

So this chapter's shorter than the first one.

But I felt like this should be on its own.

Also I felt like this was inconsistent.

(Just like the anime!
