"I'm sorry little girl, if you can't afford it then please leave." the merchant said his voice kind with a hint of annoyance.
"I'll pay for it." the guy who came in said, paying the merchant the amount needed for my things, and got the items for me, giving it to me.
"Here. Don't worry about paying me back alright. Did you just recently get a Pokemon?" He said eying me then Chikorita who was distracted looking at the items on the shelves.
"Oh.. thanks. I'm still going to pay you back you know. I'm... well just call me Lena. Yeah.. you can say i'm umm new. Your name?" I told him, it wasn't exactly a lie or the truth. I felt like i recognized him.
"I'm Gold. Nice to meet you Lena, is that you're Pokemon?" he asked looking at Chikorita.
"Yeah he's mine. Well I got to go.. umm Gold, maybe see you around sometime! Chikorita lets go!" I said quickly exiting the market, as Chikorita took notice and followed me out.
"Well that guy was nice!" He said smiling.
"Yeah he was.... he talked..." i said, while walking towards the road to New Bark Town.
"What's wrong, what do you mean he talked?" Chikorita asked confused.
"Well you know I trained you in a game right? So In the game I had I could only be a guy. So he would be the character I would be playing." I explained, I saw a ledge and jumped over it, with Chikorita following me. we continued walking not getting into the grass for a while until we saw the grass area we had ran into after yelling at Silver.
"Almost there, it's this way so you're ready for battles?" i asked looking at Chikorita.
"Yup!! I'm definitely ready!" he said smiling, with his tail wagging.
"Alright, lets just run through the grass then, 1...2...3 charge!!" I yelled running through the grass quickly, and within a couple of minutes we were back on non tall grass road, in front of New bark Town. We quickly walked to Elm's Laboratory, walking directly to Elm, seeing that there was a Police officer next to him, we stood next to the police officer, waiting for him to Finnish up.
The officer turned to me. "I heard a Pokemon was stolen here I was just getting some information from Prof. Elm. Apparently it was a young male with long, red hair..."
Then someone rushed in," Sorry It took me a while, I had bought some items for this girl... wait a minute." it was Gold saying all of this, then noticed i was there. "You! You're the girl."
"Girl has a name you know." I said
.
"Lena right...." he replied scratching the back of his head while smiling kinda laughing at himself.
"Well like I said. I heard a Pokemon was stolen here I was just getting some information from Prof. Elm. Apparently it was a young male with long, red hair..." the officer said again.
"Hey I battled some one like that just now." Gold told the officer.
"What? You battled a trainer like that?" The officer asked.
"Yeah." Gold replied.
"Hey I uh... yelled at that same guy while I first got out of here. He was looking through that window." I pointed towards the window where Silver had been looking through.
"Really? Did you happen to get his name?"
"His name is Silver." Both Gold and I replied.
"Ok! So Silver was his name. Thanks for helping my investigation!" the Officer said, before leaving the three of us there.
"Gold! Lena! This is terrible....," then he turned to Gold " Oh, yes, what was Mr.Pokemon's big discovery?"
In response Gold gave him an egg, I knew what Pokemon it contained. It was where Togepi would hatch from.
"This... but it this a Pokemon egg?" Elm said in shock as he began to study it. I just zoned out knowing what they would talk about. Mostly about how a great discover the egg is, that Oak must of seen something in him to become champion.
"Well Elm, I gotta go ya know. So see ya!" I told him beginning to walk away, then he remembered i was there.
"Oh right Lena thanks for coming, but wait, let me give you my phone number please! So i can call you if i found something. I'll try to help you as much as I can!" he came running to me as i took out my cell phone and saved the number.
"So how do you know Lena, Prof. Elm?" Gold asked confused.
"well....." Elm looked at me, "i adopted her as my daughter!" He aid smiling while i was just wide eyed.
"Yeah... he's..... my new dad?" I told him, not sure of myself.
"Woah! Cool! You're wife must be happy then! Well Ok! I have to go talk to my Mom then so bye" Gold said walking out, getting a pokeball from Elm's assistant.
"Ok.... I got to tell you something Elm." I told him.
"Oh sure go ahead." He said listening.
[BREAK]
"I'm not a 10 year old, that I look like. i'm 16. The world I come from, has this world as a video game which I have played and almost passed. I just need to battle on last person then I'm done, though i still need to find and capture all the Pokemon for the Pokedex." He was shocked.
"You're 16! but you look like a 10 year old! well... either way you're my daughter now...... hmm. maybe I can talk to prof. Oak to get him to give you a Pokedex..." He explained.
"No It wasn't meant for me, it was meant for Gold. Which I'm sure he got already. Which i don't need one, i just want to make it through this world, spend some time with my Pokemon and find my way back home. And hopefully find a way to get my old body back. it's not fun being a 10 year old." i explained to Elm, as he smiled.
"Alright got it! please do be safe, and call me when you can." he told me
"I will!" I said walking out but then Elm stopped me.
"I forgot, here take this money, you'll need it!" Elm said and gave me $3000. I tried giving it back but he wouldn't let me, So i took the money and began to leave but then the assistant came and stopped me.
"Please take this pokeball, to catch Pokemon!" he hold me giving me a pokeball.
I smiled, "ok i will thanks!" then i walked out, i went back to the side of the laboratory finding another item, except it's a rare candy.
"What did you find!" Chikorita asked, trying to jump up to my height and see what was in my hands.
"just some candy, don't worry we'll use it later kay, now lets go back to Cherrygrove City, then to Violet City!" We agreed and began our journey back to Cherrygrove, which was quicker and easier than the first time. We fought and defeated Pokemon easily. Once in Cherrygrove City we headed to the Pokemon center to heal up Chikorita, just in case and all. After we didn't even bother going to the market and just headed straight up route 30.
We battle even more Pokemon, which was getting pretty annoying until we saw a house, and walked in. I talked to the owner for a while and he told me about berries, and gave me a berry. Then walking out of his house was a berry tree where i took another berry, making it that we had about 3 berries in total counting the one Chikorita was holding.
We continued walking up and saw some trainers battling, The path was blocked. So we went in another direction filled with grass.
"This is so... horrible! my feet hurt!" i complained to Chikorita who was tired as well.
"Me too... can we go to sleep?" he asked.
I looked at the time it was barely 8:30 pm. "Not yet, just need to get out of this grass and all." I explained then out of nowhere Chikorita was attacked.
"Oh no poison sting!" i yelled as i saw a Spinarak attacking. a poison type of Pokemon.
"Lena... i kinda feel weak." Chikoria said slightly swaying side to side.
"Eat your berry quick the use razor leaf!" i told him, and he quickly did as i said, i looked on my phone to see Chikorita's life to from 10/45 to 20/45. He quickly defeated the weak Spinarak, that was most likely at level 4 or so, but the poison brought down Chikorita's life points by a lot.
"ok here.." I took out a potion and used it on Chikorita and from 20/45 it went to 40/45, it was good but Chikorita was still poisoned that meant -1 hp while walking.
"I know where we can get a PSNCureBerry. But we gotta hurry!" I told him, he nodded his head still weakened by the poison. So we ran, by the time we got to the tree his life was at 7/45 since other Pokemon still fought against him. I quickly plucked the PSNCureBerry and fed it to him. After he was poison free.
"Is that better?" i asked him
"yeah a lot!" he replied looking tired, it was 9:30pm.
"I know where we could stay, come on." i said walking towards a house close by.
I knocked on the door. "Excuse me sir, could you please let us stay here the night, my Pokemon and i don't have anywhere else to go and he's terribly injured.
"Of course please stay i'll get you my spare room ready," and he lead us to a room no questions asked.
"See we're good" i told Chikorita once we were in our temporary room.
"yeah. I can't believe all of this happened in just one day!" Chikorita said yawning, then fell asleep.
"yeah same here...." i yawned and fell asleep.
