In the lab...

[todd]

Todd felt his knees shaking. His heart pounding. This was the most nervous thing he'd done in his life so far, and he knew it would be most important. He just hoped he didn't have a heart attack before it happened.

He reviewed what was going to happen. He'd get his first Pokemon. Head to Aura Town for the night. Wake up tomorrow and have breakfast at the Pokemon center. Go along the Sustrite river and then have lunch in Peilmac Forest. He hopefully be able to go along Route 13 and be in time for the Pokemon contest.

Todd was planning to be a coordinator, having seen so many already. But he would try for the badges too, seeing as he was looking for a challenge. A gym leader should be tougher than a schmuck off the street in the contest, right?

Todd carefully brought his fist up to the oak door and knocked hard. "Hello?" He raised his voice a bit above normal as he knocked. It would be a terrible disappointment if after he worked up the courage he wouldn't get his first Pokemon after all.

The Professor opened up the door and welcomed the boy in. "Hello there!" He said happily, walking up to his desk to sit down. "I see you came to get a pokemon, no? What pokemon interest you most? Any favorite type?" He began.

This guy is psychic. He knew I wanted my first Pokemon before I even told him anything. What if I was just coming for a cup of sugar or other nonsense like that? Well, he has been doing this for a long time. You must get used to the only company being people wanting a starter. Todd thought, but just smiled.

"Could I h-have a steel type Pokemon? Like an..." Todd swallowed hard before continuing. "...an a-Aron?" The color drained from Todd's face. What if he doesn't have any? What if he says NO and thinks I'm not ready for my first Pokemon? And worse...what if I get one, and I'm not ready. I could hurt the little guy. (Or gal.)

The Professor smiled and noticed how nervous the boy was looking. "Take it easy, mmmkay? I don't bite!" He gave a quick laugh and patted the boy on the shoulder. "The steel pokemon Aron, eh? I believe I have one just for you!" He ran into the back and looked through the rack of pokeballs lined up on the shelf, he picked one up and walked back to where Todd was standing. "Go Aron!" He shouted and the small pokemon appeared.

"Umm hello. I'm Todd. Nice to meet you little Aron." Todd grinned as he carefully patted the small steel Pokemon. "Thank you, professor. Thanks a lot." Todd breathed happily to the professor, while still watching the Aron. "Oh, right, a name." He mumbled to himself. "How's Metal Man?" The Aron looked at him like he was crazy. "Maybe not. Steelio?" This time the Aron stepped on his foot. "OW! Okay okay! How about Nickle?"

The Aron smiled at his new name. Then he proceeded to walk out the door. "Umm...okay. Thanks, again professor." Todd nodded, before running after his new Aron. He could already tell he wasn't going to be easy to handle.
