The fresh sea breeze blew through Haruko's short silver hair as she stood on the deck of the ship. She watched as the Konika Harbour came into view.
"There it is...the Lanorae Region." Haruko mumbled. Although Haruko's face remained emotionless she was extremely glad to be here. She was finally far away from that man...her grandfather...she despised him.
"Attention all passengers! We are now arriving at the Lanorae Region!"
A women's voice sounded all over the ship. After hearing her announcement Haruko picked up her stuff and placed it into her bag as the ship began to dock. Haruko quickly reached down and picked up her red and black backpack and placed it on her back.
Haruko stepped calmly off the ship...she was now in the Lanorae Region. Haruko let out a soft sigh as she started her long walk to Professor Aspen's Laboratory. The quaint little town of Konika was quite peaceful. Haruko headed down the street, enjoying the relaxing silence of the walk as she went. It gave her some time to think about which Pokémon she would like to start off with. She had a pretty good idea which one she wanted.
Soon she spotted the building she was looking for and quickly walked up to Professor Aspen's Laboratory. Haruko stepped up the wooden steps and raised her arm. She knocked a couple times on the wooden double doors and waited for someone to answer.

Inside, Caroline had just sedated the excited, new aide that she had (quite foolishly, in her opinion) taken under her wing. She let out a deep sigh, sitting down in one of the nearby chairs and rubbing her temples gently. 'What have I gotten myself into with this one?' the aide thought grimly, hoping she could leave young Jacquelyn on her own for just a moment...
The short reprieve was interrupted by a series of knocks. After taking a deep breath and tucking some of her blonde hair behind her ear, Caroline stood and answered the door. She smiled and open it wide, allowing Haruko enough room to enter if she wished. "Good afternoon!" she greeted kindly. "Come on in. You're here for a Pokemon, yes? Professor Aspen is out at the moment, but I'll be glad to help you. My name is Caroline Karmike, I'm one of her aides. And you are...?" The woman seemed friendly enough, however she was simply going through a practiced routine; being a bit older, Caroline had dealt with many trainers in her years working for Professor Aspen.

Haruko waited patiently for someone to answer the door, it was taking quite sometime. Haruko started to get slightly irritated so she gave a couple more knocks. After a moment, she saw the door open and a women answer. She greeted Haruko kindly and opened the door for her to enter.
"Good Afternoon and thank you." Haruko said politely, though there was no emotion in her voice. She stepped inside the lab and glanced around before she returned her attention to the women.
She turned towards the women and nodded her head. "Yes, I am here for my starter Pokémon." Haruko answered. She listened as the women introduced herself as Caroline Karmike, she was one of the lab aides here.
"It's nice to meet you. My name's Haruko Asano and I was hoping to start off my journey with a Firecub...If you have one left that is." Haruko said politely but in an emotionless voice.

Caroline was a bit taken aback at Haruko's lack of excitement or determination that usually came with a new trainer, but was thankful for it. The easier this was, the better. Smiling in amusement ever so slightly at her request for the Firecub, the aide nodded and responded with, "Yes, of course we have a Firecub for you. Follow me." With that, the blonde woman turned and lead Haruko down a hallway and into the main lab. Caroline grabbed a red-and-white Pokéball that had been sitting on the table, amongst others, and held it out to the new trainer. "There you go! A Pokémon to call your own. Treat it well, and it'll be your greatest asset."Congratulations! Haruko has received a Firecub! Name: -Your Choice- Gender: -Your Choice- Level: 5 Attacks: Scratch, Growl Nature: -Your Choice- Experience: 0% Happiness Status: 0 (Neutral) Held Item: None "Also, take this," Caroline added, holding a brown satchel out to Haruko. "It'll get you started on your journey."Haruko received a Starter Pack! Pokéball x5 Potion x5 Full Heal x3 Region Map x1 1000 C ;; Lanorae's currency "Good luck, Miss Asano. And..." Smiling a bit more, the aide looked truly grateful in adding, "Thanks for being rather calm and sane about this entire process. It was a nice break." As if on cue, a crash was heard from another room and a second aide ran in, her blue hair streaming out from behind her. "Uh, Caroline? Um, can you help me?" she stammered before seeing Haruko. She grinned all of a sudden and exclaimed, "A trainer! I love seeing people come in and out to start their very own journey!""Yes, yes, Jacquelyn, I know," Caroline said with a slight sigh. "Do you need me to escort you out?" she asked Haruko, trying to put the smile back on for the visitor.

Haruko quietly followed behind Caroline as she lead Haruko down the hallway and into the main lab. Caroline grabbed one of the pokeballs that was sitting on the table and handed it to Haruko, who calmly took it. "Thank you and I will take good care of him." Haruko said as she took the pokeball and bag of items from Caroline.
"Your welcome, it must get tiring having to help a bunch of excited and loud newbie trainers everyday." Haruko said, calmly.
Haruko heard a loud crash and Haruko turned to see another women run in, asking Caroline for help. The women then noticed Haruko was there and grinned at her before she spoke, saying how she loved to see people come and go to start their journey. Haruko just looked at her...this women seemed way to happy.
Caroline sighed before she looked back to Haruko, asking if Haruko needed her to escort her out. Haruko shook her head no. "No, that's alright. Thanks anyway but I remember the way out and by the sound of that crash I'd say that she needs your help more than I do." Haruko said as she glanced over towards the other aide before she returned her attention to Caroline.
"Thank you for the pokemon and items. Though, I should probably be heading off now." Haruko said as she soon turned and headed for the door.

Caroline nodded, watching Haruko go and bidding her farewell. Jacquelyn simply watched, remaining silent until the doors to the laboratory were shut and the two aides were left alone. "Geez oh man, she was a little creepy," she blurted out, eyes still locked on the door. "Like, there was just no emotion to her. At all."
"You should try to be more like her," Caroline scolded. "Maybe then you wouldn't have nearly as many accidents." She sighed, rubbing her temples once more. Her long, stressful day had snapped back into action... She was going to get an ulcer from this new aide.
"Don't even start with me!" Jacquelyn snapped as the two headed down the hallway which the young aide had come from. "I'm so tired of that. My enthusiasm is part of who I am! Besides, I oughtta be like this, I mean, I'm lucky to have this job!"
"You got that right. You're lucky you don't get thrown out onto the street with all the trouble you cause."
"That's not what I meant!!"
You may now proceed to Route One - High Prairie!
OoC:// You're very welcome! I'm glad to help~ =D
