This is a Pokémon fanfic of Lily Virgratia, a quirky, ambitious girl fascinated by nature, and Steven Stone, the determined future geologist and champion who really like rocks. Like, a lot. In this story, they are neighbors who grow up and go on their Pokémon journey together. It's not all smooth or happy, but that's what makes their story theirs. They will grow. They will battle. They will adventure. And they will do it side by side. Neither one knows what is in their future, but nothing will get in their way. Pokémon and its respective characters belong to Nintendo. I do not own any of the names of characters, places, or items with the exception of the character of Lily Virgratia.
