Academy Day 1/365

Entrance and Welcome Ceremony

7:00 am

The auditorium was filled with students gossiping with each other and some who sat stiff in their seats with fear for the upcoming year. Each grade level was placed in the same group. Some mentioned their goals for social status while others mentioned the classes they were taking and secretly wished here and there for a certain person to be in the same class as them. Others went on boasting about how they were going to enter the Liberty League when the time came which others got to laughing at how he or she wasn't going to get that far and how it was only for the elite of the elite. Carlos Balestida, an incoming freshman to the Academy wasted no time listening into the information relating the League. Reaching up he adjusted his tie that was embroidered with the Academy Logo, an over decorated V if you asked him. Carlos had already been subjected to scolding from a staff member about how loose his tie was and how pulled apart his uniform was set so he allowed them to fix it but continued to loosen his tie out of comfort. The only thing that could make wearing a uniform any better was the fact that it was spring which meant that all the girls wore their skirts which showed off some easy on the eyes skin. However, before he was able to try and catch some digits the crowed was shushed by the entrance doors behind them being opened. Heads began to turn as an elderly woman entered accompanied by a Gallade to her right while a Gardevoir on her left. She was formally dressed for the occasion as those who were freshmen watched in confusion. Carlos who sat at the first chair of the first years was directly behind the last row of the fourth year students. One such senior simply turned his head slightly and said, "She's Madam Chairman," before resuming his earlier position.

The woman took to the stage, adjusting the microphone slightly, and then stated, "Why it truly warms my heart to see such faces bright with pride and enthusiasm for the school year. Of course I can point out some familiar ones but here I see there are some that I do not know. First years I welcome you all to Liberty Gardens Academy! Oh my, I must be careful about raising my voice I'm not as young as I use to be you know," She gave a small chuckle which was agreed with by the upperclassmen. "Our motto here is V for Victory but of course it depends on what you wish to overcome. Perhaps some of you would like to improve on battling? Or deepen the bonds with your pokemon. Some of you might have a fear you wish to gain the upper hand on or even wish to make friends this year. I hope that the next time we all are here brought together you will have obtained Victory for yourselves and use it to achieve great things in the future. Once again I welcome you all old and new and let the race for the Liberty Garden's League begin!"

Behavioral Studies 1

7:40 am

"KYAAAAAAAA!"

It was on her desk. The most horrifying creature Arceus could ever have created in the world and it was on her desk. The boy who sat beside the desk next to the window looked on at the scene greatly confounded as to why she was screaming and breathing extremely hard. He called for his Parasect to return to its respective pokeball which seemed to calm the ailing girl down. Tony's bright blue colored eyes met with Aida's furious red ones. He stood up as to apologize if his pokemon had frightened her but she seemed to have beaten him to it, "You! Don't you ever have whatever bug pokemon you might have near me ever again! Ugh!" She didn't exactly mean to sound rude to him at all but she had been standing in the sun for far too long and the words sunlight and Aida should never be in the same sentence. Her classmates looked on the scene as she slowly slid into her desk adjusting the scarf around her neck more comfortably. First class of the day and she was already sitting next to the worst possible thing in the world….a bug type trainer.

Tony however retreated into himself now nervous of the stares the class was giving him. How was he going to get through this term?

Hatching and Prenatal Care

7:40 am

So far Carlos had to come to the conclusion that he was going to like this class even more than he originally thought. Mostly because there were more girls in the class and they were pretty cute. Ranking them the average score was 6 out of 10. The instructor however even if it was male seemed interesting enough. He shared some history about himself like how his grandparents owned pokemon daycares around the Kanto Region and how his family spread across to places like Unova and such to carry on the family business. Right off the bat he told us to choose a pokemon who was the most parental of our team so my obvious choice was Plusle. She may have a large supply of energy but she was the most mature of his team and he couldn't have survived without her. Everyone had selected their partners and released them from their pokeballs. Plusle upon release took a comfortable position on Carlos's shoulder looking around the classroom at the different pokemon and their trainers.

"The pokemon you have chosen will become your partner for our first assignment the care and hatching of your first egg!"

Some groaned at the idea while others seemed honestly excited for the assignment. Carlos had some experience with egg care even if it was not much but still he was better off than some.

"Along with this you will be paired up boy and girl as a partner assignment. The two of you will be responsible for the egg and become its parents. Ah! But don't worry you two don't have to be married or anything." He began reading off paired names as the two met and sat next to each other with their pokemon and introduced themselves. But Carlos began to realize his name was never called off.

Raising his hand to gather his instructor's attention he waved, "Mr. Rades, what about me?"

With one brow raised Mr. Rades glanced down at the sheet in front of him and realized a crucial fact. "Oh my we seem to have an odd number of students. Well then….I suppose-" he was never able to finish his sentence when the door opened and a girl walked in disregarding the stares she was receiving from her teacher's class. She wore what seemed to be a track suit with black pants rolled up to her knees and a matching green jacket with black trimming zipped up to the top. She had sandals rather than the standard school shoes and her dark blonde hair was pulled up into a messy side pony tail. Around her neck laid a pair of goggles while accompanying her was an Umbreon. The girl was quite small in height but the one physical trait that stood out was her weight. To say in a less offending way she needed to slim down…a lot. "Ah! Perfect timing! Carlos I would like you to meet Livi Luido a third year student here as well as Student Council Vice President. She's in my advanced class and I would like her to be your partner for this project."

Livi glanced at Mr. Rades for a moment before rolling her eyes in a way of accepting his needed favor before scolding, "You should really ask someone first before assuming they will take on a freshman Mr. Rades. However I suppose I can accept on this one time."

Carlos had wished for a cute girl but having an upperclassman could do for now. He was given the egg to hold as everyone else adjusted their schedule's to who was going to have it next or what days they could meet up and talk about the project. He glanced over at his partner who had seated herself and Umbreon in front of a corner fan that was installed in the room and enjoyed the cool air. Not only was he not given a cute girl but a lazy partner as well. Plusle looked on at her trainer in worry in which he merely scratched the top of her head to reassure her that he was perfectly fine. The two then took to watching the egg on the desk as if it would magically hatch that way. Plusle would occasionally poke it from time to time.

"What was your name again?" He looked up to meet a pair of green eyes.

"Carlos Balestida, first year."

"Livi Luido, third year. I apologize if I seemed disinterested but I needed to cool down after my jog. Exercise is good for the egg." Livi took a seat opposite from his desk and offered a small smile.

He raised a brow slightly confused about what she had meant. "Egg?"

"Of course." The girl unzipped her jacket revealing a fully colored blue egg wrapped in a body harness. She took it out and placed it on the desk next to their newest egg.

Carlos of course then realized that the weight he had assumed had been her own was actually just the egg. Livi wasn't actually overweight but quite slim due to what he assumed was she engaged in exercise. Without realizing what he was thinking he had stated quite confidently, "So you are cute after all."

Umbreon didn't take to well to that statement.
