Oak offers help

                     --Serena pov--
     It just sunk in, like all things, late. I hit him, I hurt him, why? This isn't right. But it's for ash. The same reason repeats in my head.
     The cost was clear, and I was now in pallet town. I wandered the street, not knowing what now. I had to find somthing, anything, to do with the military. But that would be hard, they only let boys in. Damn them!
     I ran my finger through my hair, feeling the sweat building up. Man, I must look horrible. I looked around, seeing a bench, I sat down, trying to relax for a while. 
     "Hello, what's your name" a voice said. "I'm... Serena" I said, nervous. I mean what if they found out my name. "oh, well my name is professor oak". "Hey, do you need a place to stay" he asked. This was a strange question. "Yea.." I replied.
     "Oh, well lots of new Pokemon are arriving at my lab, and I need someone to help me" oh.. This explains his quick offer... He needs my help, but I really need a place to stay. "Umm... Alright" I accepted his offer.

     "So, the first thing I need you to do, is take a shower" he giggled slightly at his childish antics.

     I felt the warm water fall down my back, smoothing out my now long hair.  
I just relaxed, letting go of all of my problems. "Damnit!" I yelled quietly trying not to alert the old man. What the hell have I gotten myself into.
