"Hey Josh wake up, your going to be late for your appointment with Professor Hemlock" I opened my eyes  immediately, and threw piplup off of me.

"Hey!" Piplup screamed 

" Sorry Piplup I got to go where aunty Debra why didn't she wake me up." I asked piplup. " She tried but you wouldn't wake up, so she sent me up to wake you up, and she went ahead to the Professor's lab. She said she would let the Professor know that you are going to be late."

" She also said that she left starraptor outside for you so that you could fly to the laboratory, and she said take me with you, and are pokeballs are on the kitchen table." Piplup said as she brushed her self off.

" Ya ya got it." I declared

                                                                                       ***

" Thanks starraptor have a nice rest." I say pulling his and piplup's pokeball from my belt. " Oh it was nothing." I then held the pokeball up toward starraptor, so that the red light could extended and touch starraptor and piplup, it then absorb him, and shut tightly.

"Hey Josh!" someone says from behind me. I turn and found my long time friends Bridget, and Raf running toward me. "Hey." I called as he was about stop in front of me. " Hey so your aunt sent us to come and fetch you because you were taking so long." Bridget began, " Are you ready to go, the professor is waiting for us." Rafael urged.

" Ya im coming coming." I smirked

                                                                                       ***

" Ah... You finally decided to grace us with your presence Joshua." " I'm sorry that i am so late professor Hemlock i over slept, please forgive me." I apologize sincerely. " Apology excepted, but try not to be late any more ok." The professor advised. " Yes sir, thank you." I say. "Now lets get straight to business. Do you know why I have called you three here today." Hemlock asked. " I think so. Was it to give us a pokemon of our own." I guessed " Yes but thats not the whole truth."

" I have called you here because, i want you to gather data for me, so that I may know more about pokemon here in tne Mika region." " And are we supposed to do this." Raf asks. " With a pokedex." He said simply.

" Whats a pokedex." I replied.

" A pokedex is a devise that records data and information about pokemon you have seen during your travels. So the more pokemon you meet, the more data is recorded in your pokedex." He began, but was interupted by my aunt walking through the door.

" Good morning professor, and nephew finally decided to wake up huh." She smiled. " sorry about that i've always been a heavy sleeper." I anwered. " Just like your mother." she acknowledged.  

" And how are Mr. and Mrs. Parker." Hemlock said as he sat down at his desk. " They are actually heading to the unova now, to check out some ruins there. They said they may have a breakthrough." My aunt replied. " And refresh me what do they research." Hemlock began. " They research pokemon mythology and  architecture." i said.

" Ahhh, such fine topics to research." Hemlock marveled.

" Yes, I hope maybe one day after many journeys through many regions that i may also become a researcher like my parents. Oh ya here aunt Debra here are starraptor's, and piplup's pokeballs" I say as i hand her the pokeballs.

" So Professor when do we get to chose our first pokemon." I ask. " Patience boy, I want you three to go home for the rest of the day. And get some sleep because tomorrow you guys will begin your pokemon journey..."

                                                                                           ***

" Josh wake up time for breakfast." I opened my eyes and found my brown hair, blue eyed aunt standing over me. " Good morning aunt Debra." I replied.

" Same to you. Now hurry up and come down stairs. One more thing Professor Hemlock called and said he wants you at his lab by no later then noon." She added. " Ok I'll be down in a minute." I mumbled.

After I got dressed, I went down stairs, and sat at the table. I ate in silence until piplup, and aunt Debra wondered in.

" Great food aunty. You make the best french toast." I say joyfully. " Why thank you nephew. But drink all your milk so that you can grow up big and strong." 

" Ya, ya I will." I grunted.

" So piplup what was it like for you when you first met aunt Debra." 

" Well... I was only a year old then, but what i can remember was that i didn't think Debra was that strong of a trainer."

"So of cource my piplup pride took over and i tryed to show off, but i wasn't trying to show off so that Debra would pick me. I was trying to get your own mother to pick me. But to my disappointment she picked the chimchar that is now known as Infernape, and after your mother was done picking her pokemon. Debra then chose me to be her's." Piplup said. 

I then turned to my aunt. " You know I hate it when you and Mother do that." she growled

" Do what?" I ask.

" You know, talk to pokemon." She replied.

" Well its not my fualt that i am the the first child of a first, child and that so is she, and so on. Plus I've always hated the gift anyways people always think im weird." I sigh

" Well I've always wished for it. I've always wondered what it was like. And what piplup always thought about me...." She said, there was a silence, but was interupted by piplup and me laughing. " Whats so funny" My aunt asks.

                                                                                        ***

" So are you all packed up. so you don't have to come straight back after you get your pokemon." My aunt asked. " Yup I'm all packed up, and ready to go." I smiled.

" So would  you like a ride to the Professor's lab on Starraptor." She asks.

" No thanks I think I'll walk there. Its not to far anyways." I reply.

" Ok then, but before you go take these there some pokeballs."

" Thanks aunty I'm really grateful." I say

" No problem, just make sure to right every week to both me and your parents ok." She begins. I nod in agreement.

She then hugs me, and kiss's me on both cheeks. We both say good bye. I then turn, and take a deep breath, and begin to walk.
