Yoo Hoo! You here?

[.:~Majic~:.]

The crunch of leaves and twigs could be heard as 14-year-old Rachel Holleson made her way through the trees to Professor Pine's lab. She had her head down and her hands in her pockets, pondering what Pokemon to get. Well, there's plenty of Fire Type starters, I guess. And it needs to be different. No, Charmander, they're too common. And a Growlithe is pretty common as well. Hmmm, I guess I'm a bit stuck. Might have to ask the Professor's opinion.

Finally, she reached the large building that was known as the Pokemon Lab for starters in the Nahra Region. She approached the door and knocked three times. After she did, she called, "Professor! Hello? I'm here for my starter! I know I'm late, but I still need one!"

[Et Cetera]

The Professor quickly opened the door, having heard the three, loud knocks and the girl's voice. "Ah, yes, do come in." A smile was spread across his face as he pulled the door open further and notioned for her to move inside. "Yes, yes, you need a starter. And no, don't fret!" He chuckled, "You aren't late. Many others have just started out in the last couple days. Heck! We've had someone come just earlier today!"

He thought of Todd, having started just earlier, but hastily zoned back in. "One question remains---why Pokémon will you choose to be your partner?"

[.:~Majic~:.]

"Really? Then, you're right, I guess I'm not that later after all." Then, she looked at her shoes, hearing the Professor's question. "Well, that's just it. I'm looking for a Fire Type. But I don't want something common. As you might have noticed, I'm different, and I like it that way. Are there any Pokemon that might fit that description here?"

[Et Cetera]

The Professor nodded as she spoke, but after a quick though, he attempted to answer her question. "Well, we do have a Magby, if that'd interest you. Or there's always Vulpix. Those aren't overly common now, are they?" He looked towards the high ceiling, trying to think of any other species. "If you don't want a common Pokémon, I suppose you only have a few choices, hunh?"

[.:~Majic~:.]

Sam smiled and nodded. "A Vulpix would be very nice. Actually, yes, I think a Vulpix would be perfect!" As soon as she had said this, she waited for the Professor's answer by looking at the complicated equipment that filled his lab.

((Thanks for telling me that! =P A bit confusing, isn't it?))
Rachel looked at her new Vulpix gladly. "Hey there, girl," she said, petting the young Pokemon. "You need a name don't you? How about Sapphire?" "Vul pix vul!" Sapphire said happily. "I guess you like that name, don't you?" Rachel picked up Sapphire and said, "Thanks Professor!" Then, she turned and left to start her Pokemon journey.
