[Fin.]The Sun, The Sea, This Tree, And Me.

Dusk. The water lapping up on the shore. Silence, broken only by the sound of the water. No living wandering. Too early for early birds. Too late for nocturnals. Just that little person sitting under the tree, facing the water, looking for the first boat. In his lap, a PokéBall. In that, a Ralts, his first Pokémon from the Johtto Region.

"Dear Friend forgive me, for I must release you. I want to start anew." Said the little boy to the ball.

'Yes, I for..e you. I wi.. try to fol..w you the be.t I can.' Sounded the ball back to the young child looking person. ' I pro..se, A..d.'

Three hours past, him just staring at it, then he finally reached down and picked up the ball and hit the center button, releasing a blue light and his friend. The last thought from her to him was the saying of a Natu at the lab. He slowly stood, dust his clothes off and walked towards the lab with his eyes watering at the sight.

The lab was a long walk but he made it, collected himself, wiped his eyes, and knocked on the door. "Hello, I would like to get a Natu, please. Female if you can. I would be so happy if I could." He called hoping he wasn't talking to himself again. He had hope, the last thing he had. Hope, would it let him down?

The knocks echoed throughout the laboratory's lonely interior - just whispering through the corridors before fading, leaving silence to reign once more. Although it seemed completely deserted, in a small study that branched from one of the corridors, there was a sudden rustle as a petite girl, perhaps no older than fourteen, roused from her padded leather chair, now alert of a guest. Lip just barely twitching downward, she hastily swiped at the front of her oversized white labcoat, which trailed on the floor behind her as she strode out of the room.

Despite her relatively young age, pale blue eyes shined with wisdom of many years, and she harshly scrutinized the front doors, as if she could peer right through them to the stranger who had interrupted her silence. Clarissa cherished the periods where she got the entire laboratory to herself - even though it was common for Professor Aspen to mysteriously disappear, there was almost always another aide, ones who harassed her by attempting to make meaningless small talk. Bah.

Although, she couldn't ignore her duties as an employee, and so with a sigh, the teenager pulled her shoulder-length chocolate hair into a ponytail, squared her shoulders, and opened the wooden doors with a sharp tug. Before her stood a male, his expression noticeably depressed, yet Clarissa didn't bother to ask way - not only would it be intrusive, but she wasn't required to solve peoples' emotional problems on top of giving them their first Pokemon. "Hello," she muttered in a cool voice, blinking, "What do you want? Your first Pokemon, I'm assuming." - if this guy had said anything beforehand, it had been much too muffled by the doors for Clarissa to hear.

"Yes. I am. Natu. Female. Please and thank you." Muttered Aeli in a loud and hurried tone. Wanting the little bird with all his heart he had left to give to his Pokémon. He planned this day so well, the last thing he needed was for it to fall apart.

Ralts, I am going on that means I need you. Please keep your promise. He thought, hope still with him. Then he thought about the Natu. Green, two inches, small, psychic. Now about Xatu. Taller than him, totem like. Yes that was his choice. "Please." he said in a low saddened voice.

Clarissa scrunched her nose, eying the boy almost skeptically for a moment before replying, "Whatever you say, kid, just wait here." Perhaps it was unfair for her to call anyone kid when she was but a mere child herself, yet she only briefly pondered on that as she swiveled on her heel and retreated back into the building, allowing the thick wooden doors to slam shut behind her.

"Seems in a rush," The female muttered to herself, striding down the main corridor, past her study, and entered a similar room toward the rear of the laboratory - where she recalled Professor Aspen kept a portion of the Starter Pokeballs. "Would be a shame if I took too long," Clarissa added, chuckling lightly, and swept her piercing gaze over her surroundings, swiftly fixing it on a towering wooden shelf off to one side of the room, each of its levels adorning a row of Pokeballs labeled with their respective species. Briskly, she went and selected a ball which contained one of the dainty psychic-birds, grabbed a Starter Kit on her way out, and made her way back to the double-doors.

With another tug, this time slightly awkward due to the items she carried, Clarissa wasn't surprised to find the male still standing there. "One female Natu and one Starter Kit, mmm. I guess that's all you need for me to send you on your way," she lulled, offering out both the small drawstring-bag of supplies and the minimized Pokeball, containing his avionic companion.

"Thank you." He said, taking the objects from the girl he desided to hate. Once he put the bag in his pocket and the ball in his hood, he walked to the tree where he started his journey.

Once back, he placed the items he had just gotten onto the ground. He unzipped his jacket and also put that on the ground, and on it he placed the ball. He then walked around the tree and took a backpack out of a pile of leaves picked off the spring tree. Out of it he took his long sweater and put it on. He put the items in the small backpack along with his jacket.

" Come on out little Natu." He told the Pokéball with a happy spring in his voice. Not a second later, a white light came out of the ball and struck the ground infront of himslowly growing smaller until a tiny bird was left in it's place.

'Hi, Who are you?' It said, or thought as it shook out it's feathers, making sure none were stuck to eachother.

"We have time for that later, for now I want to see if you can feel a psychic presence here." He told the bird, picking it up in his hands. Hope still in his heart.

'Yes I will. I feel a Ralts. It want to take over my peck thing. Wow you know how to pick them, Acid. At least it is good at words. I think I can talk with it. It want in? What?' She was in tune with the departed Ralts and they shared the same body in thought. She just couldn't let him take over.

"Thankyou let's go." He said putting the backpack on his left shoulder and his Natu in his hood to sleep. Off to route One.

DONE!
